For something I read annually while the last three movies were coming out, Deathly Hallows isn't something I remember very completely.

#80stextmessages Looks like there's going to be no more #DoctorWho.

My takeaway from the Charlie Hebdo event - No more Muslims than Christians are terrorists. No one deserves... http://tmblr.co/ZO40Ou1aRQzTj

Do you realize that there could be children named after Grey's Anatomy characters in third or fourth grade now?

RT @TheOnlyTrout In the event of Tumblr downtime, please afix the oxygen mask to your child before donning your own.

I've been avoiding that viral kisscam video out of disinterest, but having @TIME tweet it at me elevates it to a matter of principle.

  • Sun, 19:21: I wonder what kind of backlash the History Channel's going to get for Michael and Sampson being POC.
  • Sun, 20:36: #AKOTAS update: variation on an old theme. Not "snow day", "no joke". http://t.co/fCBN20cI4W #webcomics #kingarthur
  • Sun, 20:45: Some days you just give up.
  • Sun, 20:47: But that's why there are more days.
  • Sun, 22:17: The challenger in this Top Chef has the same name as Bruce Willis in the Die Hard films.
  • Sun, 23:00: Even spelled the same.
  • Sun, 23:06: If I thought the snow'd be clear of the roads enough for me to go to work normally I'da gonna bed by now. #noIwouldnt
  • Mon, 10:02: Tomorrow's AKOTAS one liner with cut-and-paste art is complete. I wonder whether I should declare that a hiatus format.
  • Mon, 10:53: Perhaps Twitter has ruined me for gagwriting.
  • Mon, 11:04: ... though last night it occurred to me that inspiration may be hobbled by hardware issues. But there'll be a new USB cord by the weekend.
  • Mon, 11:07: RT @TheOnlyTrout: Oh thank God, DC is FINALLY doing Batman's origin story. No longer will his early years be shrouded in mystery.
  • Mon, 11:19: @TheOnlyTrout I'm reminded of @pvponline complaining of Man Of Steel we already know Superman's origin. (Though that looks a new take.)
  • Mon, 11:29: Despite the last two Creative Process, I doubt my difficulty with AKOTAS right now is disenchantment with AKOTAS; rather, outside stressors.

  • RT@TheOnlyTrout Original US copyright law was FUN. You got it for seven years after it was written. It was intended to force authors to make MORE.
  • If the first thing Smaug says to Bilbo is, "You have been in Afghanistan, I perceive," I'm walkin out.
  • @TheOnlyTrout You don't understand. The purpose of a new MicroSoft product version is to remove features the users liked.
  • The proper response to conservative complaints about Muppets liberal propaganda is, "Duhhh." http://www.theferrett.com/ferrettworks/2012/01/why-the-muppets-are-propaganda/
  • Coming up with tomorrow's script improves the whole day
  • I learned to write with fanfiction. I don't do background. RT@blambot For chrissakes, webcomickers, draw the backgrounds. JEEEEzus.
  • .@TheOnlyTrout Re backgrounds: I was influenced at an early age by Bill Mauldin's discussion of Johnny Hart, and "rivet men". (more)
  • .@TheOnlyTrout Mauldin said a "rivet man" draws every rivet on a pot. "So what if the hero is offcenter in the panel? (more)

  • @TheOnlyTrout When I've done that, I've drawn the notes but not the staff. No one's ever come out and said they recognized the tune.
  • @TheOnlyTrout Unless I actually copied out a few bars from an actual score, because that was the joke.
  • @TheOnlyTrout I once drew two guys whistling Rhapsody In Blue for three panels.
  • @scifichat #scifichat A2 The epitome of the machines-don't-belong-in-charge-of-people trope is the STAR TREK episode The Apple, ...

  • @scifichat #scifichat ...which was adapted and serialized in my webcomic Arthur, King of Time and Space. (Links available on request.)
  • I wonder if many The Big Bang Theory viewers see the salute to sitcom history in the protoganists' names.
  • It's too bad that there's only one Peter Bishop. We could call the second one Repete. #fringe
  • @heldaction He thinks he's not home because no one here knows him. But in the season finale everyone at home forgot him. #fringe
  • My god. Hutton is so good. Nate Ford is drunk off his ass.
  • @choochoobear I know how you feel. No one but me seems to have noticed that humans raised by Moties suffer from jump shock like Moties.
  • MSPaintVista has some advantages but I think it's MSPaintXP most of the time for me from now on. (7 is right out.)

  • @TheOnlyTrout I'd rather draw a phone conversation than a crowd scene.
  • I don't share the popular antipathy towards #StarTrek V but I still sure hope Cumberbatch isn't Sybok.
  • RT @stoplookingup I love my geek family. We're arguing over whether to name the new gps Landru or Mr Smith.
  • @daibhidc Doyle's Adler was her own person. Moffat's isn't.
  • Anyone whose version of #IreneAdler's story ends with her and #Holmes less than full enemies as at the beginning has missed the point.
  • @daibhidc Mutual admiration as a worthy adversary? Yes. That's what the story's about. Canon hooks for 'shippers? No.
  • "holding out for perfect is the enemy of getting something done" - @fleenguy
  • Screw the haters. Control-Alt-Delete makes me laugh. http://www.cad-comic.com/cad/20120111
  • @TheOnlyTrout "Lots and lots of little art"? That's what I hate about crowd scenes.
  • I love those huge white three-pronged windmills. They look like aliens.
  • Line them up just right and they look like aliens dancing.
  • The reason the Taliban outlaws education for women is recruits must have permission from their mothers.
  • @stoplookingup All British/American non-synonyms for clothing mean underwear in Britain. Pants, vest, suspenders ...
  • Next year I want to see Cumberbatch do the moment of revelation in The Norwood Builder. Brett turned his face away from the camera!! Away!

  • RT @steven_moffat To clarify: any Doctor Who movie would be made by the BBC team, star the current TV Doctor and certainly NOT be a Hollywood reboot.
  • @ferretthimself You know why it is that LJ keeps getting DDOSed, don't you? Because it's a forum for free expression for Russians.
  • @ferretthimself Also, STD now means "short term disability". Ex. "I have to call my employer today to get STD for my heart attack."
  • Ran out of Lord of the Rings (anyone ever said that before?). Watching Roseanne on Oxygen. Still makes me laugh.
  • "Are they gone yet? I love'em an' everything but I just ain't in the mood."
  • @TheOnlyTrout Really? I can't draw full front views.
  • Apparently Oxygen reruns of Roseanne all have first season credits no matter when they're from
  • @spastasmagoria You know that's Pa Walton, right?
  • #scifichat Fanfiction is a great training ground, but don't forget that it has its inherent worth as well.
  • @JLichtenberg Spockanalia and T-Negative were different schools of fanfic? This is what you miss having been a preteen then.
  • Can't miss that. RT @scifichat Next #SciFiChat is Friday, Dec. 9, 2-4pm ET. Topic: Punday Madness at Callahan's Crosstime Saloon.

  • According to Jon Stewart and Martin Scorsese, Edison invented film pirating.
  • @TheOnlyTrout Been there, done that
  • Decided on a project for my off week: a format change at 3Faces that I'd already been considering and drafting.
  • #AKOTAS sketch: fey like ghosts can take any shape. tinyurl.com/akotas/2748.htm #webcomics #kingarthur
  • @choochoobear @ubersoft Kudos to the parents for standing by her.
  • @GiniJudd I respond to celebrity tweets as casually as if they were pals sometimes, if I have something to say. Occasionally they respond.
  • Changed my mind about implementing that 3Faces format change I tweeted about. I'm afraid ongoing maintenance would be too much work.
  • Which in fact is why I didn't implement this change at the same time as the panel-per-screen change when I had the chance.
  • But this means I want something else to do on my week off work.
  • Hero of Three Faces update: unexpectedly in the news. http://tinyurl.com/3f4c3s/abai.htm #superman

  • Вт, 19:49: @TheOnlyTrout I've also been told that the lack of anti-aliasing is part of the charm. I dunno why this'd be, but I won't complain.

  • Чт, 22:01: Alt button troubles seem to've been related to the video player controls that were doing something even though I never use'em.

  • Tue, 18:11: @TheOnlyTrout Of course, being me, I didn't get proper inspiration for a gag for my chosen work until I conceived a crossover.
