'Tis just around the corner. And on Halloween, I'm going to be posting a new image, as well as a list of spooky and weird movies, books, and music to help all the darklings on Deviantart survive the Christmas season. Trust me, I too have been on the verge of grabbing the next drugstore clerk I see by the throat and demanding they add more variety to their seasonal track list.

Eh-hem...but here's the catch. I'm asking YOU to tell me who and what to draw. Is there a character in my gallery you find particularly fetching? Perhaps a costume you've been dying to see them in? Or do you have any other twisted suggestions? Post your demands here. Do eet. Do eet NAOW!!

And have a hellishly-happy Halloween.

It occurred to me at some point in my daily routine of ingesting caffeinated beverages and trying to appease the humor of loud Jewish people that I've been wasting my rambling and random internet finds on this journal. So we're re-locating. In short, I've started a new livejournal.

You can access it HERE --> [link]

Just save the link and you too can keep up with my bitching and youtube finds and so forth. There will also be doodles/inferior CGs that you will not see on this site (you know, unless a million people demand I post them and I give in like the spineless whimp I am), and, yes, plentiful Twilight bashing.

That's all I have to say on the matter. Till then folks.

I got this from ~GuardianDelta. It was so much fun, and I was totally cracking up while doing it. I recommend giving it a shot.

1. Who would make a better college professor, 6 or 11?
Based on having an actual high school education, I’m gonna say Harley.

2. Do you think #2 is hot? How hot?
Um…kind of hot…more personality-wise than physically.

3. 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
Zero: Come here.
Locket: Yesh master.
Nuff said.

4. What is or would be 9's favorite book?
It would have been the Harry Potter series until a certain female friend of his introduced him to the blood and semen stained world of Poppy Z. Brite

5. Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
Harley would be the more likely candidate, and that would generally depend on how much cleavage Della’s showing.

6. For whatever reason, 5 is looking for a roommate. Should 5 share a studio apartment with 9 or with 10?
Considering that Paradox is technically dead, Violet would be more reliable for rent money.

7. 2, 7, and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
Della’s a drummer, Lacrymosa’s an amateur anti-folk guitarist, and Zero’s Jimmy Urine meets Frank-N-Furter. Odds are good the topic will either be based on music, drugs, or how many piercings they have (and where).

8. 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
Well first Violet would have to explain how duels actually work, since he’s not accustomed to these sorts of challenges. THEN they’d have to go about finding a deserted scope of land where no one would get hurt (which tends to happen when two extremely powerful psychics engage in battle). Once said battlefield is found, it would end in the five seconds it takes for Violet to fake an injury and pull on Doomsday’s heartstrings. The duel ends in a draw, and they go home for something smothered in chocolate.

9. If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, how would 8 get it back?
Her most precious thing is a boy with a libido that would make David Duchovny jealous. She’d probably just have to wait for him to get bored and come back on his own.

10. Suggest a title for a story in which 7 and 12 both attain what they most desire.
“Gay Boys in Bondage”

11. What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
Think ‘What’s Eating Gilbert Grape’ meets ‘The Crow’ and you’d be in the right ball park.

12. If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
If Lacrymosa turned up at my house, chances would be pretty good that I was dead. Otherwise, she’d probably try to talk me into piercing my navel (I’d naturally refuse; that thing has seen enough mutilation to last me a lifetime).

13. If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
“Be a dear and clean my room”

14. Does anyone on your friends list write or draw anything regarding 11?
Technically no.

15. If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
She’d go with Gingerbread based on the fact that Gaudry would gross the hell out of her before she ever found out what the initial argument was.

16. What might 10 shout while charging into battle?
She’d probably quote Tina Turner or something. She’s that kind of person.

17. If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose?
“You Are My Home” from The Scarlet Pimpernel

18. 1, 6, and 12 are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?
Zero, because he would claim it by spitting on it. He‘s just that shameless.

19. What might be a good pick-up line for 2 to use on 10?
“The things I’m gonna do with this drumstick…”

20. What would 5 most likely be arrested for?
Murder. Of course, being royalty and all, she wouldn’t be in the penitentiary long.

21. What is 6's secret?
She thinks you have great tits. *Wink*

22. If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
Paradox. He has fucking wings.

23. If you had to walk home through a bad neighborhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 or 8?
Lacrymosa, because she is such a bitch that she would bite off a guy’s face just for looking at me funny. ‘Course, having a big honking sword and a switchblade helps.

24. 1 and 9 reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4's sinister secret organization. 11 volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that she is actually a spy for 4. Meanwhile, 4 has kidnapped 12 in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of 5, they seek out 3, who gives them what they need to complete their quest. What title would you give this fic?
“I Like Swiss Cheese”

--

1. 1, 6, and 11 are all told to wait in a room together until someone comes in to get them. Let's say no one does. Who would leave the room first?
Yuka. She’s claustrophobic.

2. If 2 had to do one nice thing for 8, what would it be?
Free concert tickets. Little goth girls LOVE free concert tickets.

3. If 4 and 7 co-stared in a movie, what genre would it most likely fall under?
You know those movies where the smart, uptight person gets stuck in a situation with an absolute moron who can’t even breathe without putting them back in jeopardy?

4. If 3 was made into a toy, who would be more likely to buy it? 9 or 10?
You kidding? They’d be fighting tooth and nail over it.

5. Would 5 be likely to consider stalking 12, or vise versa?
Probably vise versa, and that would probably be so he can find out where she got her ‘contacts’ from.

6. What would 6 make the better star of? An anime or a newspaper comic strip?
Who knows? She’s quirky enough for a comic strips, but those legs of hers scream Anime.

7. 8 wants to buy a car but can't decide who offers a better bargan. Should (s)he buy from 2 or 11?
Neither. She’s not old enough to drive.

8. If 5 wanted to dye his or her hair but could not decide on the color, would (s)he rely on 1's opinion or 4's?
She’d rely on Crypt. When it comes to appearance, when in doubt, ask the gay guy.

9. Whose babies would be cuter? 12 and 3's, or 9 and 2's? (If it is impossible for them to breed because of gender or species, just go with it and pretend that it was possible, please.)
Paradox and Della’s. If they got Paradox’s features and not Della’s.

10. Who would have a DeviantArt account; and if not, what would their reason be?
Probably Yuka, so she can post fanart and bad emo poetry.

Okay, this happened about an hour ago, and I thought I'd share it.

So my brother was up in Santa Cruz with his friends today, and was due home late. At the same time, my parents and I were searching the house and our yard in the dark because I'd forgotten to lock our cat in. After an extensive search, we gave up and decided to wait for the cat to turn up.

Now, I'd like you to keep in mind that my dad hates our cat. If he was in a room with the cat and Osama Bin Laden and given a gun with one bullet, he'd probably use it on the cat. Just thought I'd let you know.

Anyway, the cat finally turned up, and my dad came into my room to tell me so. At the exact moment that dad opened his mouth to speak, my brother came in the front door and called out, 'I'm home!'

Dad: Well, Puke Face is home.

Me: So I hear.

My dad was halfway down the hallway before he finally got it. And me? I'm kind of praying that my brother got drunk or something. That would be awesome.

Okay. So, recently, the cast of the Twilight films made their annual, unwarrented appearance at Comic Con. And granted, the event has had some other non-comic related goodies that were kind of awesome (Alice in Wonderland, anyone?). But this time, we feature sneak preview clips from the movie, 'New Moon', and I'd like you to watch the first one. Continue reading after you watch it.

Got it? Good.

So. Pretentious Bella learns to ride a motorcycle. And Jacob Black, who is probably the most sensible and likable male character in the franchise thus far (don't worry, that won't last long), is trying to give her lessons, but all the bitch hears is EDWARDEDWARDEDWARD. Then she gets in an accident, no surprises there.

Needless to say, she's bleeding, which brilliant Mr. Black points out. Bella apologizes. And then Jacob says...'You're apologizing for bleeding?' And Bella actually looks like she's starting to get how ridiculous that sounds.

I feel a spark of hope at this point. Suddenly, I think to myself, 'Is this it? Are we at last going to acknowledge that Bella is in an abusive, restricted relationship where she has to apologize even when she gets HURT? Are we finally going to let the fangirls in on the idea that maybe, just maybe, this whole romance with Edward thing isn't as perfect as they truly think, and that this Indian werewolf might be the last grip on humanity versus sexuality?'

And then Jacob takes his shirt off. And everybody in the audience forgets what happened before that.

These are the fans of Twilight. These are their standards. If aliens ever wish to study our ways, these clips alone are proof that young girls will abandon all reason for a popular person's bare chest.

And incase you were wondering, the second clip they showed was Robert Pattinson taking his shirt off. I don't think I need to tell you how that went over.

By the way...this is probably what happened when most of those girls went home ---> [link]
