8/31 Hey everyone! Guess what! I'm a freakin idiot! Yup, I'm sooo smart. Ok, on to the reasoning for this. Now, I'm home for the weekend. This means I'm away from the comp I normally do stuff with. Now, with this in mind, I thought "well, I should prepare comics ahead of time, for saturday and Sunday(despite the fact that I knew enough people weren't going to send in mail by sunday) but I made comics none the less. Now, me being the extremely bright person I am, did not upload or email those comics. Therefore, they sit at NAU. So, sorry, but no new comic today. However, I will post 2 on Tuesday to make up for my error. And, hell, I'll tell you what, if I get a little feedback mail, I'll post three on Tuesday to count for Sunday, but you guys only have till Tuesday to send mail, so please do. Anyway, I do have something else to offer you guys. STORY TIME! Yup, I was watching TV this morning, and I found a brand new thing to add to my list of reasons why I am ashamed to be a member of the human race. Oh, just so you know, whenever I post my "about the author" page, I'll have that list for you guys. Now, as I said I was watching TV and on came this commercial. A little background though, I thought Time Life's "Bible Songs for Kids" was about as bad as stuff like this would get, but oh my, was I proved wrong. Nope, this commercial took the cake, because it was for, get this, I don't think many people could have thought this up, the God Squad! WOW.... I mean seriously. These are plushie toys that talk of Jesus and Moses and some other guys(I'm not religious, so I wouldn't be able to tell easily). I believe they said Moses was "Rockin the word of God" or something like that. Now, if this isn't a marketing ploy, I don't know what is. I mean seriously, who would think this up with the true and blue purpose of getting kids to have a closer relationship to God? There are a couple of things that bug me, people who push thier religion on others and people who create marketing ploys based on other peoples beliefs. I mean, this is just horrible. And besides the whole amoral thing that goes with this, its just plain stupid! Who would want one of these plushies? Oh, I'll feel much safer with Rockin Moses by my side! Right now, I'm really glad I didn't catch who made these, because if I did I might be tempted to get some books to teach my how to make napalm or nerve gas or something like that and I might have to take a little field trip. Now, I'm not threatening anyone or anything, or giving exact statements of what I'd do, because, people can sue for anything these days, this being among my other reasons I'm ashamed to be a member of the human race. Anyway, sorry about the problem today, I'll post 2 comics on Tuesday, and I'll make it three if I get a little bit of email luvin. It doesn't even have to be loving! I just want a little feecback! Well, cya all tuesday. Scribbles |
