kogepan likes to poop, but the pandas are jealous because they have no poo hole.

hahaha! that's better... have you seen the Tare animations? they're pretty cool, but extremely zen...
takora:
hey. i have them on a Japanese DVD. it's short, maybe only 20 or 25 minutes. there are several short animations, each by a different artist. some are cel animation, some are claymation/stop motion, etc. i'll see if i can get them posted somewhere, but i don't currently have any software that can capture from DVD...
what do i need to do to get people to respond? do i have to pose all these deep philosophical questions that contemplate the beginnings of the world or how certain aspects of history have shaped the world...like i sit around all day and try to find the meanings of the world...to make it appear as though im some intellectual genius and that everything else...

2 years ago i let a girl i hardly knew - a friend of a friend, who's a good friend of mine now - stay in my room cause i basically lived at my boyfriend's house. she got it on in my bed with the boy who lived ACROSS THE HALL. his bed was about 30 feet from mine and they had to mess up my sheets. grrr. at least, in his own words, "no fluids were spilled." my friend turned out to be a lesbian anyways 
xdaarkenx:
woohoo! lesbians! uh....sorry...

rawk. later.

I have two babies... don't play them much anymore... the sit on my wall... like decoration or something... bad bad me
its funny, back in the day when artists where inspired by others, they were hailed as masters. many did tributes to previous artists, such as titians venus of urbino to one of giorgiones works. there were even names given to groups of people influenced by other artists, like the caravaggisti and the rubenists. now contemporary artists who are inspired by others are seen as hacks,...

your salary is directly proportionate to your age.... if you make out like your 28 you will get better pay
I don't know if i'm way outta line, but I think that you're supposed to get paid for what you work.
And in a situation where you don't get paid, it's usually because you didn't work.
