What in the heck!

*gasp* a blog done during the day!? OMG!

anyway lat time i said I’d continue the day after as I was so sleepy and did not make sense , but didn’t so oh well so thought I may as well write one now in my garden on a warm summers day ahhhhh…..

Work. Yep work, that topic I always bitch about, my new hours aren’t as bad as I thought they would still pretty unsociable though, example ‘Hey Wes! wanna *insert fun thing* tomorrow?’ ‘I can’t I have work, I always have Thursday’s and Friday’s though we can do something then!’ ‘GTFO!!!!!!!’ That’s exactly how it happens but I need teh monies! Also it’s not to say work isn’t fun, I’d die without the staff at work they probably don’t know I love em that much but I do, if I left or got sacked I’d be lost without em, but I still wanna see my friends more as well I wuv them, ah well I’m seeing them all tonight so I don’t know what I’m bitching about >< EMO!

Speaking of which, the reason I’m meeting people tonight is that my older brothers off away ro Australia, which is weird that I won’t see him again for god knows how long, I didn’t think I would miss him but I am really. You may wonder why I wouldn’t miss my own brother but we have a weird relationship, we don’t have anything in common really and sometimes he really annoys me as he steals ma stuff and drunkenly irritates me, but I realised I’m going to miss those things really, plus he does make me laugh sometimes, I know my friends really like him and are gonna miss him more than I will which is bizarre.

OBJECTION! yay! Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney is out and I couldn’t be happier about a games release, I mean it’s just a game, but I love the ace attorney series so much. It’s going to sound really childish but I love to just get engrossed in the awesome stories and characters, it feels like I’m there really sad I know ^^; but to be honest isn’t that why we play games and watch films etc.

Speaking of escapism, escapism at it’s best for me is Azumanga Daioh, my favourite anime/manga series (next to One Piece,) I bought the anime box set and the manga collection so I’m reading and watching them again and I am so very in love with this series all over again, it’s a more simple life of a group of school girl friends and their everyday crazy antics. The reason I love it so much is that the characters are so original and weirdly enough a lot like my main friendship group, we all act like certain characters and it makes the series all the more fun to watch, one of the characters, Tomo, is so like my friend Aram it’s scary. I just love the series, the manga is set out like 4 panel gag comics like Garfield etc and was one of the reasons I started my webcomic, even though the humours are different. As for the anime, because it is based on a gag comic so of the jokes don’t really translate to animation but some really do, so it can be hit and miss at times while also feeling disjointed at times, but I can’t help but love it seeing characters I love on screen, ah it makes me feel happy in side!

Anyway I can’t believe I talked about that for so long, I should talk about more real life things, hmm I need a girlfriend *moan moan emo moan* yeah I shouldn’t really it”ll open up a whole depressing whiny can of worms and that just isn’t me to be honest, speaking of depressing I’m listening to Dark Light by HIM while writing this…it’s not a very good album for shame HIM, listen to Cancer Bats!

Anyway I should quit lazying and go solve crime *away!*

Thanks for reading,

Wes out!

This carrion has been forgotten…

hey hey blog, hows u?

yeah haven’t written on this thing for what seems like an age but I figure I’ve gathered enough interesting life nuts to divulge.

Firstly, I have a new comic (I say new but it’s a week and a bit old just haven’t mentioned it on here) can’t be bothered posting a link because I’ve got bad feedback on it and don’t really like it myself much either, but if you really wanna look at it just go on the little page I did for me comic. Thing about my comic now (and for why I took so long updating this blog) is that i’ve started doing yet more hours at work for mo monies so on days of been either resting or some recreational activity, so i’ll update the comic when I can but i’ve got a dilemma where it’s too much effort for a result in which i’m usually displeased and no one seems to care, but I haven’t done enough comics to be good and for people to care, it makes my head hurt.

So GTA 4 eh? ah I don’t give a crap to be honest i’ve got my smash bros and Mario Kart keeping me occupied to care about a game where I’ll drive around, kill a few people then be bored, yet it’s being worshipped, I just don’t get GTA games, ah well.

In recent self development news, everyday I have to shower myself several times as the hideous internets has got it’s greasy claws on me! You see with me, I consume so much media, shift from so many different forms of media and what not I tend to get bored and move on to the next thing that amuses/interests me, so ocasionally it can be horrible things that I hate and there’s a whole load of hypocrisy, this is what is happening to me and teh internets. I used to hate it, memes used to piss me off to no end and any mention of stupid Youtube (more like Jewtube amiright?) and 4chan made me want to vomit. But after checking out for 4chan, I thought it was awesome. Rules 1 and 2 stop me from mentioning it so I won’t directly, but a certain parts of 4chan has lots of images and lines that are very funny and smart with several levels of depth to it, like the irony and fascistic humour portrayed in the race article’s and such, also the way memes are constructed and used, basically as a personal sort of language is always wondrous, this is why I got into things like the internets and it’s many memes even though I feel like a bit of an idiot. Also Memes are damn funny.

anyway this is a short and sweet post, I am currently falling asleep and have to be up early so best go, reading back on some of the stuff I wrote, mentioning wizard’s and stuff for not reason!

anyway thanks foir reading, will update the rest of my blog tomorrow with thoughts and schizz, AND MINDBLOWING EVENTS!

but anyway friends must dash neeed sleep, sorry for crappy spelling as well!

Wes out!

Jamaican me crazy!

Yo~

That remade comic I mentioned I posted finally, I was waiting till I did another but though what the hell and uploaded it, it’s not my best and I sort of regret using the same joke twice in a row but oh well ^^; could become a running gag I guess, I love running gags! Also in comic related news going to change my art style it’s doing my head in, I draw a different way for a comic I’ve been planning to do for ages called ‘The Many Misfortunate Misadventures Of Minkey,’ but I figure I could turn it into a drawing style or something if I get better, anyway I’ve still got to make that Tom Delong comic but now I’m trying to start a story arc I shouldn’t really, ah well…

Anyway will update on life things when I actually do something (or thursday of course) I’ve recently become infused with a gamecube controller and eyes fixed on Smash Bros so much that days just turn to nights, nights to weeks, weeks to months and so forth. So I’m currently feeling lonely, unloved and useless but I’m guessing that’s my own fault (that or Nintendo’s…)

Until we next meet my friends

Wesley Away! *Fwoosh!*

14 hours ahead – a head that’s heavier than lead

Yes, I am alive, very much so, just been busy me thinks but I have plenty to write about anyway, just very tired currently so I’ll give it my best shot, should really stop updating at night but feel uncomfortable doing it during the day for some reason

The reason I didn’t update last week is because it was just mainly a blur of drink, hangovers, early mornings and a trip to Newcastle. I went to Newcastle as I am currently looking at universities to go to in September to study, yep you guessed it, Media . In terms of why I want to go to Uni it’s mainly because of all the creativity I have, I mean I recently quit an art course at college because I had the creativity but not the talent and I could not take being taught after leaving secondary school it just didn’t feel right at all. So this new found loathing for teaching was always something that made me thing twice about going to university, but I have to many ideas, to many things I want to do in terms of creative media just to ignore it, so it looks more than likely I’ll be going to university despite a recurring conflict as to be honest I’m pretty happy with the way things are now! Anyway back to Newcastle, it was a awesome looking place with everything in one place made me really excited, but at the same time I’m nervous of a new start, mainly because of the social inadequacy and all that

Another highlight of last week was SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL!! I imported it faster than a blue hedgehog being chased by an egg shaped man in a hovercraft. needless to say it will melt your face with it’s brilliance, especially the Subspace Emissary being a game on it’s own basically it just brings Melee to shame really. Yet another game that will keep me amused for god knows how long, I mean I was just finishing melee (still even had some stuff to do) and playing it with my friends up till the day I got brawl on import, so goodness knows how long Brawl is gonna last O.O. While were on games (for a change) I got Mario Kart Wii today, and again needless to say it’s all you expect, great new tracks, great new weapons and MOTORBIKES!! So yet another game I’m going to be playing for years, along with double dash still though because despite it’s gimmicky feel I love the double racers and they will be sorelymissed Also relating back to an earlier post, the awesome looking sonic game which I thought would be on the 360 as it looked so good is actually on the wii!!! I couldn’t believe it seriously, I love my Wii right now long may it reign as king of consoles!

Moving on to this week’s activities, and I had a lot of time off work for now particular reason, so I did what a lot of people, shopped, drank and saw Angels and Airwaves O.o. Yeah I know, but my friend asked me along and I said I would go, he’s always good to hang out with despite how much the band itself suck. The gig really did feel like a whole load of fuss over nothing, I really don’t understand how people can really dig AVA’s music, it’s just slowed down punk rock with synth and Tom Delong claims to be the saviour of music because of it, it’s beyond me it really is, it was incredibly dull, and felt like next to no energy had been put in the performance the sort of which felt like the band came out and treated it as the same old same old, despite the audience creaming themselves over every word spoken and every note sang by ‘the saviour of music.’ Yep, you gotta love Tom Delong, the guy who created a band that created by the numbers inoffensive fluff so that he would not be remembered/forgotten as the guy who made nob gags and fun music with his friends (god forbid.) Also there’s the money side of it to, being paid millions to be worshipped by pubescent morons and play simplistic drivel can’t be to bad really, no wonder he loves himself. Aside from the irritating/extremely dull gig, the rest of the adventure to Manchester was fun, the train station being particularly bizarre, consisting on mainly piss heads, but of different varieties, like the drunk girls who knock themselves out and have no underwear on or guys who try and fall asleep on you or fall asleep on a escalator, then there’s the transvestites and hobos for good measure, they only come out at night as they say.

Comic wise, I had two comics planned but because of late nights and such only managed to make one which is a remake of an old comic but will link in with a story arc I’m gonna do, but the AVA gig inspired an idea for a comic in which I can’t resist in making so that will be up ASAP hopefully along with the other two shortly. But I’m feeling really positive about it because of how creative I’ve been feeling lately, mainly because of this awesome song by a band I used to had but now adore! This song will defiantly be the story for my first sort of student film!

Speaking of awesome music, new Alkaline trio songs are soo good that I never thought I could get aroused by two songs, seriously their new sounds is just to cool for school or something I’m really having trouble describing just how good they are, just don’t listen to bitchy fans which are stuck in the past!

Hm that’s all I wish to say me thinks, will update with comic soon hopefully since I’m not at work much this week again (before I go full time!) actually I will mention one of my friend’s, his deviant art account is amazing so check it out, he’s what I would love to be!

anyway till next time!

 Wes out!

Why Was There Bacon In The Soap!?

Boo Yah, I obnoxiously exclaim as I updated my comic, hope you enjoy it!

This is one of my favourite comics I have made to date, it was just a struggle to draw it so animated in the last panel which I am not used to, but I like a punch line that doesn’t use text as it is more of a challenge to express humour through art in my opinion, especially with my talent or lack of ^^;

Thursday will be my aim for updating, now only with the comic, but for the blog, but will update if anything interesting happens before hand, which in the case of this week, is not so.

A very slow boring week as I have no money, I hate monthly pay, but that didn’t stop me borrowing some to go out drinking ^^; I went out for a quite drink with my friend Ben on Tuesday and a bit of a boogie as they say at our local alternative night, but I must be the only one who turns a nice quiet drink into the most drunk I’ve ever been! It’s not good I had 12 cocktails and god knows what else and thus can’t remember most of the night which sucks because it was a fun night, so I have decided I will no longer consume mass amounts of alcohol only enough to get me merry, not so I forget things!

Aside from the hideous morning after and a pain filled hangover driven day, my week has ceased to be interesting and for that avid reader I am greatly sorry, I so have a few good rants in me but I am going to save that for another time as I am currently watching Battlestar Galactica again, and it is just the best thing ever really!

Until next time,

Thanks for reading!

Wes Out!

Previously on Battlestar Galactica…

Firstly…AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME NEW SONIC GAME!! Weird name and sadly on PS3 and XBOX 360 but looks amazing, lets hope Sega doesn’t screw it up.

Anyway just one word to say, phew! 4 days of straight work and little amusement, if it were the sims my little diamond thing above my head would be red, no social, tired, bladder full etc. but hopefully lots and lots of money. Still because of this I’m not entirely happy at the moment, just missing having free time and whatever free time I have I feel I waste it, free-time is such a precious thing to me now and if I don’t do something note worthy I feel I waste it, it’s bizarre but I guess I’m just adapting to full time work, also it’s Easter so all this bitching about free time and loads of work might just be because I’ve got extra hours .

All this talk of free time probably sounds like I don’t have any but I do, and enjoyed it over the past week, was quite busy to be honest that’s why I haven’t updated in an age, to exhausted/hungover to blog, but it was all in good fun.

During last week I saw Jimmy Carr, now he seems to be like Marmite when it comes to popularity, but I have actually been indifferent to him for a while, but I got the ticket for free so went along anyway, and I was surprised at how funny he was. Say what you want about him, but the man knows what he’s doing, all is jokes are so layered, intricate and very observant, he seemed to have stopped being unnecessarily offensive and now he’s just genuinely funny and smart. I also got to meet him afterwards and he seemed like a nice fella, although it my be an act I’m not sure.

Also that very same day I saw Juno. All I have to say in regards to this film is that it was brilliant, I could watch it everyday for a year or something, it was just lovely, well acted, original and very heartwarming! It has left me feeling extremly creative which I love because I’ve got tonnes of ideas for things, just need to get round to expressing this new found creativity

My love of anime has recently returned thanks to this brilliant anime my brother watches, Kino’s Journey, it’s a very laid back anime about a traveller and her adventure’s, but she lives in a truly unique world, where nothings our definition of normal, which I think is very refreshing to see an anime where they have created this unique entertaining world, I’m currently hooked to it and will be sad when it ends . Also, earlier in the month I booked my room and ticket for Amecon, a Anime convention in Leicester which I attended last year, I can’t wait and today came up with the best Cosplay idea ever:

Ignore the Amazon logo, but this is Cardbo from one of my favourite Manga’s, Yotsuba &, about a unique little girl growing up, here friend’s play a prank on her were they try to convince her that Cardbo is a real robot at one point in the Manga, and I think it’s the perfect Cosplay opportunity! Hopefully people will know what I am, I need more Cosplay ideas and will keep updated on more ideas!

Anyway think I waffled long enough, I best be off, until next time read Yotsuba & it’s awesome!!

Wes out!

So tired…

Here’s the new comic finally, been working on it for ages but as I mentioned before GIMP is awful! Hope you like it, may seem a bit silly but I liked the idea very much.

Anyway this is going to be short and sweet the past 5 or 6 days have been awful but fun at the same time which is weird! Will talk more about them later though tomorrow night at latest (worried people just won’t come back :S)

anyway hope you like the comic!

Wes Out!

Wide Eyed, Knee Deep In Surprise!

Hello once more, not entirely sure when I last updated but meh, just to let you know the dead are coming back to life and all this crazy shiz is happening, yes that’s right, I am updating my blog even though the dead are coming back to life. In fact me and my friends are running for our lives but I still have time to update my blog, not only that but I’m documenting it as well with my camera and even editing the damn documentary in case anyone manages to stop the endless hoard of living dead and people want to see the truth. Even though they’ll probably experience it first hand because the dead are coming back alive for Christ sake, how AREN’T you going to know the goddamn truth and how would the government cover it up and would they even want to!?

That’s true, I saw dairy of the dead, and with regard to the rant about, it was one of the worst films I have ever seen in my life and George A. Romero deserves a punch in the face for his overly preachy, poorly acting and truly ridiculous (even for a zombie movie) piece of rubbish! I could use a stronger word but it’s not my style, it is truly awful and put me off my phase of horror/slasher films for quite some time, I think I’ll stick to decent films, speaking of which I’m currently watching The Producers, awesome film

On to decent things, I stumbled into town the other day like some Romero-esque zombie with a commentary on consumerism, because we all love to shop or some balls, but mainly because I craved the Goddammit redux, Alkaline Trio’s first album, and my favourite album of all time and I have listened to a lot of albums, the redux part basically means they made it sound nicer and moved some of the instruments around etc, I already have the album but it also has 4 previously unreleased tracks that are remastered to perfection and a brilliant DVD. It’s my favourite album because the songs are not only catchy, but they got me through my teenage years, not that I had tough time as a teenager, I just felt, and still do feel socially inadequate and the masterfully written songs of feeling like a loser, being obsessed with a certain girl etc made me realise that it was okay to be a loser, which might sound weird but that’s why I love it. I recommend everyone should listen to it, even if you don’t feel like a loser, the songs are very catchy and well written, full of brilliant metaphor and poetry.

Moving on to real life stuff, work is driving me nuts, it’s so stressful now and I nearly got sacked, because of my till being over and under so many times, my last under was £19 and got taken out my wage as a last chance so next time it’s the boot for me :S I will be heart broken if I get sacked, this job means everything to me at the mo, I’m making some great friends there and I just couldn’t imagine not working there! I’ve also got a huge crush on someone there at the moment, and although nothing will come of it because of my bumbling awkwardness and general loserness, I get some sort of weird enjoyment with infatuation.

Finally, onto the much delayed comic, I finished the first comic but not to sure how long the next one will take as the program I use, GIMP, is useless, you can’t even create speech bubbles! So I’m trying to ‘purchase’ photoshop to make it easier to colour etc. but anyway, here’s the first comic, this is the one image filler I was on about, I like this comic and I think it lets you know what to expect from the comic in a very tongue in cheek manner if you get the joke of course if not this will help.

Anyway thank you y’all for reading my oh so interesting rambles and comic,

until next time,

Wes out!

Finally…

I’ve got my web-comic’s site and page, The Irrelevancy Chronicles, up and running at last (but it’s missing a comic for the meantime.) I finally got round to it as I am currently down with the sickness and feel like a badly beaten ham so I cannot be bothered to write about other things at the mo except that a comic will be up within the next day or two and I will post again when it is hopefully having recovered from this damn illness!

Also while researching web-comics I found a brilliant web-comic name Cat And Girl I instantly fell in love with it’s inspired art style and dry intelligent humour it is truly awesome you should check it out!

anyway a brief post as I slowly become consumed with a virus…

until next time,

Wes out!

P.S. Quote of the week taken from Cat And Girl : ‘Is it possible to sell in?’ Genius.

Would you like to play a game?

No? doesn’t matter then…

Anyway new post just to let you know I’m still alive, in which I am, just been to busy with work (mainly ten hour shifts D:) and the thing I mentioned in my last post.

Don’t want to bring things down but my Grandma’s funeral, which was this time last week, was the worst day of my life, understandably. Don’t really want to go into it but I assume most people will know how horrible a funeral is so I don’t really have to go into it. I’ve come to terms with it now but still miss her, as does all my family.

Moving on to current events, today I went to see untraceable for some reason. For people who do not what untraceable is about it’s a film about a website were people are tortured live, the more people log on to watch, the faster the person dies. The film is a brilliant idea that raises some very good points about the current state of the Internet, but also contains some very exaturated notions of the state of things to come and poor acting. I’m glad I went to see the film as the concept intrigued me, but disappointed with it overall, though it was not entirely awful and entertaining at times.

At the moment, and I really don’t understand why, but I think my taste is starting to go down hill :S As you can tell by the title of this blog, I am very much fascinated with the world of horror at the moment. I have a desire to see as many poorly acted, extremely gory horror films and I’m not entirely sure why. I’m mainly interested in the exploited side of horror, like the endless installments of franchises such as nightmare on elm street and Friday the 13th, it’s just interesting to learn how they managed to keep the franchises going through endless sequels that still manage to attract audiences, I am currently watching Freddy Vs Jason, and although it has all the horror staples of bad characterisation, sucky acting and inappropriate humour, but it’s what makes horror films so great and fascinating to watch, also watching to horror legends battle it out is undeniably cool  I’m not sure how long this phase will last but I am very much enjoying it.

Also, in terms of music, I have revived an old flame of mine, HIM. I know this could also interpreted as a decline in taste, but I can’t resist their heavy riffs, catchey melodies and Ville Valo’s great deep voice, man I suck :S

Back on to the comic, the ideas are flowing like hot cheese over some nachos (damn work,) and I’ve actually drawn the first comic :O (even though it’s only one panel filler) but I hope you like it when I eventually get round to creating the page.

anyway I better go it’s late and I have more joyous ten hour shifts for the next 2 days D:

Anyway thanks for reading once more

Wes out!
