Post Too Much Eggnog - 2007 Reply with quote
Well, this is what happens when I'm left at work with nothing to do and no one to assign me tedious, menial tasks. Instead of working on the WCpedia, like I should, I decided to be MUCH more productive with my time and make this little Wing Commander pixel comic. (Hey, give me a break, I didn't have any of the files necessary to work on the WCpedia at the office.)

While trying to pass the time, I found myself watching the "Strong Bad Emails" from HomestarRunner.com. Whilst doing so, I came across the "Create Your Own Webcomic" feature. And this is what resulted. It mainly stemmed from the coincidence that the "Strong Bad Space Fighters" look vaguely reminiscent of everybody's favorite Pancake-shaped spacecraft.



If you don't get the joke (and I'm suspecting that many won't), please watch this "SBemail"to be enlightened. If you do get the joke, and it still isn't funny... you're right.

And, if you'd like to create your own pixelated web comic courtesy of HomestarRunner.com, WC inspired or not, go here.

Beware that jokes with dependencies on external references may be slow to hit; specially without clickable links... Sure this is not the result of an eggnog overdose? Very Happy

Yeah, wait... where was I last night? Razz

Actually, I wasn't going to post it at all, just show it on the forum, but I couldn't resist when I found that after the cartoon, if you click on one of the words on Strong Bad's computer, it shows the "GO LOAF" sign. Then I was like, "Now I HAVE to do it!"

EDIT: What un-clickable links?

I still don't get it; maybe I should get some eggnog; I don't think martinis are going to do it...
Later, though; right now I need fried eggs and coffee. Woke up famished.

Well, in the cartoon, it says when making a pixel comic, if you don't know how to finish it, just "MS Paint" your way to a solid conclusion. By painting random crap over it and calling it a day.

*Sigh*... I fail on my own website. Crying or Very sad Razz

I suspect failure was the intent; so I'd call it "success" Very Happy
