I debated whether or not I should post anything in this thread as it would give off the opinion that I enjoy attention and really that's not true (well if there is a kernel of truth it's only half true.  I love/hate attention at best.)

Anyway, I thank you paul for your concern and it is very touching, I am back (on flickr anyway) now.  Smells hit the nail on the head but she would because we are psychically dating one another, just don't tell her husband (congrats by the way). 

I am not one to whine/mope on the internet when things go badly (unless it's in a cryptic post on my own personal site that gets deleted after a couple days, but that's what that site is for), so when the going gets real tough I just go dark.  I don't like to leave people playing the "OMG HE IS SO MYSTERIOUS WHERE DID HE GO?!" game though if I've pavlov's dogg-ed them into expecting a couple posts/images from me a day so I just say "Hey... out for a bit.. back in a while" and leave that at that.  It's not that I don't think of them as people and thus worthy of an explanation... it's just that I have issues with being close to anyone, and especially so on the internet.  It's my thing man, don't take it personally.

That being said, it was comforting, when I looked at my flickr stats, to find this post and furthermore find that some people still thought of me fondly around these parts.  I never really felt like I made that big a splash but you bastards brought blushes to my cheeks for what it is worth.

It is also comforting to see that Donnie Dodecahedron still could care less about anything that doesn't involve Donnie Dodecahedron.  That is precisely as I expect him to be always, and I would not have him any other way.  I say that last statement without pretension or facetiousness.

Anyway, I have rambled through electrons at you all enough.  You keep on keeping on and know I think of you all fondly, and I'm glad that it seems the feeling is mutual.  *Internet High Fives*

So it's satire, is it?  Well that changes everything!

Just in time to roll over his post count to keep up with the year.

Wheels within wheels...

Glad to hear you're still alive though Qbert.

Who the fuck is "MisterQueue"?

Maybe we should just shut down the board since no one is posting but LOTS of people seem to be reading the non-postings.

I mean, with AssBar around, is this board even necessary anymore?

I've been making an effort recently to post more for this very reason.  I always check but rarely post anymore.  I guess I am thinking that if I don't post who will, but I am running out of things to say to you lot.

This is like saying we should shut down the library, it's no use because all people are doing are reading the stuff in it.

Has anyone noticed it's the holidays? The whole internet is slow, people are out having lives.

This board gets quiet when the strip is quiet.  That sadly is most of the time now.

It's like the IRC channel. If traffic is this slow, it's best saved for an opt-in mailing list or something.

Oh yeah, I forgot that there was a comic around which this board is supposedly themed.

Well, carry on, then.

Oh yeah.

It's a comic about this guy who sells t-shirts and posters on the internet and will let you listen to him talk about his kid for three extra dollars a month. Pretty rad.

Actually, I've gotten nothing about his kid for my three dollars - which is kind of too bad, since I've been reading the collected baby updates and remembering how much I liked them.

It should have become a comic strip about a baby.

To be totally honest, I've more or less given up on Achewood.  I read it consistently up until Feb 2008, and I've probably read under a dozen strips since.  I first tried to get caught up, but got totally bored, then tried to read something more recent and got bored...  Were there any strips worth reading in 2008?  I figured there would be the natural bleed through of references in the non-strip related posts on TOUAMB if anything outstanding came up... but nothing.  So, uh... yeah.  Is Achewood worth reading anymore?
