"Artists need to make money to eat and to continue to make art. Artists used to rely on middlemen to collect their money on their behalf, thereby rendering themselves innocent of cash-handling in the public eye. Artists will now be coming straight to you (yes YOU, you who want their music, their films, their books) for their paychecks. Please welcome them. Please help them. Please do not make them feel badly about asking you directly for money.” -Amanda Palmer

Hello Greg... I saw your avatar and felt like I had vertigo. Surely, I clicked the correct link on my bookmark folder...?

I had hot chocolate from my mug just the other day. I'll try to pop in the forums sometime soon. And I'll check out this new site after dinner.

A couple were really funny but I feel like I can only watch about 6 at a time before the repetitiveness becomes overwhelming. Especially the really short jumping woman one where everybody is doing XXX in 4 Seconds.

Until I got to the Achewood comic with Jack I thought those were all legit guest shots.

Heh, yeah, I was on the front page of the forum and saw your name in a post. I did a similar double-take.

In an obsessive fan-girl sort of way, I notice many of the captions on your site were composed by "Chris" and instantly thought: "'spinn' is a humour guy, who for whatever reason, choose to post to our message board.  Wait?  Does spinn know Onstad?  Are the captions by the 'Chris' on this page actually the captions of Onstad?"  I couldn't help but wonder.  Why else would you magically pop up here?

Oh, no. Chris is the guy who does hlcomic.com.

I came here because...well, for the reasons I said in the original post.

Now I'm tempted to see if there's a similar thread at brunchma. But I'm a lazy, lazy man.

Heh, that's kinda ironic since I just spent a couple aggravating days trying to justify the existence of my website's Wikipedia entry.

But, thanks. My ego dug that.

Hold up - how on earth could anyone justify deleting that page? I mean, I'm not trying to boil your life down to DFC, but certainly that is seminal internet humor.

Heh, heh.

Heh, heh.

I think the argument is that DFC is wiki-worthy but Spinneweb itself doesn't deserve a page if the only noteworth thing about it was hosting DFC. I guess this is the problem with giving Scribs, Amusing, &c their own URL's

The only rational argument against was that SpinnWebe itself wasn't notable, but the DFC was, so SW shouldn't get its own article. But how many web sites got a sidebar in The New Yorker in 1996? Not many, that's how many.

But eh, you know. I know my site's not as popular as it used to be, so whatever. But it was mentioned on the AP wire once and by God that means I win.

Interested parties may note that set 4 is up (four new movies). Whoever Firelily is, he/she is dominating thus far.
