8/29: He Didn't Do Dishes Much Either
The reason for the last OOC was to make this one, really. Losing Ryan as a roomate isn't a big deal for me, really, besides the loss of rent, since I rarely saw him as is. Hopefully the guy who moves in to replace him won't monopolize the bandwidth like Ryan did. To my other roomate though, this is a godsend. Scott is doing metaphorical backflips right now. The first panel was more or less a real statement that Ryan made to Scott. My retort in the comic is wholly fictional - usally any kind of flippant remark was not worth keeping ryan in the room for long enough to hear it. I wasn't even privy to the original conversation, although Scott was happy to share.
Even with Ryan moving out though, I'll probably be using him for a few more OOC in the future. Just too good of a material. And let's find out what our new roomate adds to the equation...
I've been reading a bunch of stuff at ShigaBooks.com. While it sounds like a bookstore (and most of the books are for sale), it's actually a pretty amazing collection of webcomics all by a single person. I'll probably see if i can pick up one or two of these, since the quality is tremendous. Fleep was the first comic I read, and it would up being a "gateway drug," as it were, to Jason Shiga's other works. Some of them are amazingly interactive, while others are just plain silly, but all of them are entertaining.
That's enough OOC for the time being. I'll try to get a Gray Matters out next week. It's a longer one than the last, so I don't know when it'll get done.
