Every now and then, I visit these forums. And then I think, I should just email Brad for my password. And then I don't. And now I've been drinking. And my team lost tonight. And my small spawn is suddenly 13. And I'm divorced. And most importantly, I'M BACK. Hi, guys. Hope you liked the quick recap if you're not already following me on facebook (in which case, you are missing out on a harrowing spider story).

I'm not on Facebook at all.  What are the chances you'll post your spider story in comic form?

Decent. But it's too wordy, so I'd have to make some changes. I'll see what I can do.

This is the best I could do to truly capture the drama (and expand the background as little as possible):

Don't tell her I told you this story, but my wife once freaked out because she thought she saw a spider while we were walking through a parking lot.  It was the hole in the center of a discarded CD jewel case.

I can definitely say that my wife has experienced the same thing. :)

Hey Chicka, welcome back!

I'll spare you my tale of woe, my life turned to absolute shit not long after we last chatted. My favourite part though: a GP giving me a hard time for drinking every night, followed by the look on his face when my hands turned out to be more steady than his, after he refused to believe the tests that came back to say I'm fine. Hey maybe I'll become a surgeon, I said, make the big bucks.

Injokester! I sort of followed your story in the RMDC forum, and I'm sorry that things took a turn for you. It seemed that things were slowly turning around. Is that not the case?

Also, is DillanGibbs a glitch in the matrix or something? I clicked on his member rating (because I couldn't understand how a person with no comics has a member rating) and was taken to evil_d's user info instead.

Spooky.  But it's not happening for me.

Oh, it's turning around, just hasn't quite happened yet. Couldn't work for the last year I was so bad, but I've just landed a job and start in 2 weeks. Basically I can now re-start the rehabilitation process, 5 years in...

It's all good though, pain = art = comedy.

Plus since my career's been destroyed I'm back doing shitty callcentre work, and that means comics. Found SC in '04, got a better job in '07, barely made comics since. Specifically when the government overpays someone's welfare by accident then sends them a letter months later saying they want the money back, I'm the guy who'll take the call. Should be gold for comedy :)

Hey gang, I'm sorta back too now. Deleted my Facebook a couple weeks back and work finally found out about the blog I'd been writing for the past 7 years detailing my life as a strip club bouncer, so that's pretty much ruined now.

Still a high functioning alcoholic though, so I got that goin for me.

Was diabetic, lost a bunch of weight, now not diabetic anymore. Quit smoking, started back up again, got a cat, had guns pointed at me and am steadily chipping away at my credit card debt.


Other than that I'm completely the same narrow minded idiot I was WAY back in aught 7, aught 8.

Hi.

Hey AA. Credit card debt, eh? More power to ya. Congrats on beating diabetes? I don't know that it ever truly goes away, just more or less your blood sugar range isn't dangerous enough to warrant medication/regular testing/monitoring.

Thanks AC, I guess as long as I don't have to shoot myself full of pancreas squeezins every day, it's a win.

My goal is to be debt free by the end of the year and then move to the middle of nowhere and not have to talk to another human face to face until I'm killed by local wildlife.

It's a work in progress.

Welcome back, Chicka! I'm still popping in a few times every couple years to misuse your image here. Also divorced a year and a half ago, no spawn. Life is an interesting place.

You sir are unfortunately etched in my memory as a permanent association with a terrible experience.

 

I sent you 12 bottles of the best ale I'd ever brewed.  Sent you 1/4 my batch.  And like every bottle popped or broke en route to you.

 

I SAID GOOD DAY SIR

LOL, I remember you making the effort, man. Homebrew doesn't fare well in the 'fuck it all' world of mass delivery.

It was the thought that counted, brother.

You ever find yourself unfortunate enough to be in the Cleveland area, let me know. We'll do some drinking and do some retro gaming on my 10K+ video game cabinet.
