I've been trying to cut down on the "express everything I want to say by editing Garfield or other comics and/or making stuff with my sprites" thing that I did on LJ a lot in 2012-2013 or so, but I just HAD to make THIS one:


(Original Garfield strip: June 19, 2003)

Hmm... Seeing those three versions of myself in one room like that really makes it stand out that the modern sprite version of myself has a skin tone noticeably darker than my real skin tone. Oh well.

I meant to take this quiz on my birthday, but I ended up forgetting to for 30 days :(



For some reason the text of the result isn't part of the "post to LJ" code anymore so:

(EDIT: I had the result down here, but then decided to try to put it where it's supposed to be.)

As I've mentioned a while back, I plan on replacing some of my userpics with more legible versions. (even though I've procrastinated that for probably at least a year now...)

Since I knew that doing that will cause me to lose track of what order I added my userpics, I kept a list of my userpics in my profile in order added - but I'm starting to run out of room on my profile now, so I moved it here and reformatted it into a table that hopefully looks better than the old layout.

Note that this excludes the following:
- Old versions of these userpics
- Alternate versions of some of these that I made to protest SOPA/PIPA/ACTA/etc. a few years ago

I just looked at the interests in my profile for the first time in a while and...

WHOA. It's WAY outdated.


Homestar Runner?!

Garfield??!

MARIO?!?!

When was the last time I liked those?!



Unfortunately I can't fix it just yet either because I've been busy lately. I had enough time to come up with a new interests list:

/b/, 15, 16, 23, 300, 4, 4-8-15-16-23-42, 4chan, 42, 4815162342, 5 nights at freddy's, 69, 8, all your base, angry video game nerd, arguing, arguing about gender, arguing about politics, arguing about sports, arguments, arrow to the knee, assuming bad faith, assuming everything is homophobic, assuming everything is racist, assuming everything is sexist, assuming neurotypicals are jerks, assuming nts are jerks, atheism, avgn, ayb, ban comic sans, being a jerk, being mean, bell peppers, cake is a lie, call of duty, captain falcon, cars, chili, chuck norris, cinema sins, cinemasins, controversy, creative writing, cussing, cuss words, debates, dirty jokes, do a barrel roll, do not want, dorkly, double standards, dragonball z, dubstep, encyclopedia dramatica, essays, estj, extroverts, feminism, feminist frequency, final destination, five nights at freddy's, flame wars, flashgitz, fnaf, football, for glory, fox only, foxadhd, game of thrones, game theory, gaming sins, gamingsins, geno, grand theft auto, grudges, gta, guns, halo, hating everything, holding grudges, hoo-hah, hot-button topics, hunting, i lost the game, impromptu speeches, indexed, innuendo, innuendos, insults, internet memes, it's over 9000, it's over nine thousand, jersey shore, judging people, lettuce, little mac, lucario, malleo, matpat, matthew patrick, memes, metal gear, moral dilemmas, mr. z, mustard, no items, no wai!, o rly?, onions, overanalyzing cartoons, overanalyzing comics, overanalyzing everything, overanalyzing movies, overanalyzing video games, paint.net, photoshop, pickles, political arguments, political debates, politics, potato salad, profanity, psychcentral, public speaking, rap, research papers, rickroll, rickrolling, salad, shoop da woop, sonty mick, sports, sqrt(-garfield) memes, sromg memes, starting arguments, swearing, taking offense to everything, team fortress, team fortress 2, that's what she said, the game, the game theorists, the office, the walking dead, this is sparta, tl;dr, uncyclopedia, walking dead, weegee, weegee stare, writing essays, writing papers, ya rly, yolo, your mom, your mom jokes, yu-gi-oh, zero wing, zombies

But that's over 150 interests, and I don't have time right now to narrow it down to just 150. Hopefully I will this weekend. At least this gives you a chance to marvel at just how NOT ME my old interests list is, I guess.

And I still need to come up with a new default userpic... and like 40 or 50 new non-default userpics, and a new profile, and a new profile name...

Happy belated-in-some-timezones birthday to thisissonia and early-in-other-timezones birthday to stupidlyafraid!

Welp, I have somehow managed to survive everything for 18 whole years. Go me!!

I haven't gotten my birthday presents yet, but I did go gambling for a little while (awehla, I mentioned in a comment that it'd be tomorrow, but the plans ended up changing). I won $63!!! And we had a party at the autism intervention group I go to!

And, of course, the usual Museum of Accomplishments post:

Also, in addition to today being my birthday, this is my 700th post in this journal!! I was going to celebrate with a list of the subject lines from all 700 entries in my journal (and, for once, even my community entries!), but I left my laptop unplugged while I was typing it, and since my laptop doesn't have a low battery alarm (despite claiming that it does), I lost a lot of it and decided to give up. Maybe for my 800th or 1000th entry?

Now I'm at 3,891 words! Team Brennario still has no Stars, though.

By the way, Notepad's word wrap put enters after every few words, so I had to manually remove all of them. If you see a line ending in an odd place, that means I missed one, so let me know.

I actually did pretty well on the SAT this time! I finished all of the sections (even the essay), and even if I hadn't had accommodations for extended time, I still would have finished all of the math sections and the last writing section! YAY!

More Moya's Space Log. I'm up to 2,102 words now, and Team Brennario (it gets tedious to say "Mario, Luigi, Enya, and Moya" or "the Marios and the Brennans" over and over) is finally in space! Yay!

←Part 0 (edited) & Part 1 (unedited) Part 2 (edited) & Part 3→

I take the SAT again tomorrow. Hopefully, I'll do better this time...

In other news, I'm still up to only 612 words in Moya's Space Log, and the Marios and Brennans haven't even made it to Sky Station Galaxy yet. There's no way I'll be able to complete this in time :( But at least I've finally started actually writing the story!

EDIT TO NEW READERS: This story makes more sense if you skip the unedited versions of parts that are edited later.

←Part 0 (unedited) Part 1 (edited) & Part 2 (unedited)→
Parts 0-9 combined and made much less cringeworthy in 2018 ⟹

I decided to post more comics made with the Garfield randomizer every Monday. This time, though, I right-clicked the page, clicked "View Source", saved a modified version that would use any non-Sunday Garfield strip instead of 2001-2004 to my computer, and used that instead. If you know of a Garfield randomizer that can use any strip without needing a modified source code on my computer, let me know.
