Excellent post. Could not have said it any better myself. Hat’s off to a post well said.

Topic: "Weird Al" Yankovic. A loved member of the geek community. Everyone has at least one Weird Al song they like. What's yours?

1. Why are so many webcomic authors named Scott?
PvP
VGcats
F@nboys
Slackerz (made by TWO people named Scott)
the list goes on… wtf? Been wondering about it for a few years…
2. You've mentioned that Clone High has a lot of influence on the way you draw the strip. Is there anyone that stands out as a influence for the way you write it?

She is in the comic. http://hijinksensue.com/2008/01/10/american-gladi...
That'll be her, in all her Korean glory.

Scenario:
You are in a mall when the zombies attack. You have:
1. one weapon.
2. one song blasting on the speakers.
3. one famous person to fight alongside you. Person may be real or fictional.
(PS: you automatically get JoCo alongside you with a guitar-axe.)

Also, are you excited for the Shepherd Book comic that is coming? Or do you feel Book's past is something better left alone?
Also, what are you views on the end of Better Days? Mal being a cock by ruining their financial situation, Simon and Inara boned? What?

i like that question

Happy B-day Joel enjoy the party. My b-day is tomm. (6/15). do any of you (since who knows who'll actually be at the podcast) enjoy any sports? if so what sport(s), and what team(s) do you root for? (Marathoning Whedon, or LOTR in HD doesn't count)

Have you guys ever noticed that this guy plays the EXACT same surprise character in all three of Joss's series? http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0415070/
**Spoiler Alert**
In Firefly 01×01 (Serenity), he plays an unimportant, dopey passenger and then ZOMG he's an evil alliance agent!
In Buffy 03×01 (Anne), he plays an unimportant, dopey missionary type guy and then ZOMG he's an evil demonic slave camp director!
In Angel 01×07 (Bachelor Party), he plays the unimportant, dopey fiance to Doyle's ex-wife and then ZOMG he's an evil demon who tries to eat Doyle's brains!!! (although he does at least manage to stay dopey when he turns evil here).
What do you guys think? Is it pretty stupid to typecast a guy as a surprise villain? If he shows up in Dollhouse, don't trust him.

6/15 in the "izzle" as the malmedicated children are so fond of saying.

Happy In-Between-Real-and-Celebratory Birthdays!
2-parter: What's the most prosaic change about yourself you've noticed since becoming Daddy? Conversely, what's the most profound change?
Our little dude's 1st is tomorrow, and his party is on Saturday too; I'll eat an extra piece of cake for you.

Stuuuuuck in a closet with Vanna White!
Night after night after night night night
I'm stuuuuck in a closet with Vanna White!
(Though, really, when the song was written…I prolly wouldn't've minded being stuck in a closet with Vanna White.)

The "Philipenis" line from the last podcast had me pounding the arm of my chair, trying not to bust a gut in my cube.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Since they're touring at the moment, are any of you guys Kids in the Hall fans? If so, can you talk about your favourite sketches?
Also, is Allison or the mythical Mikey ever going to guest on the podcast?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Coverfield explaining how the hot receptionist (at his dad's dealership) needs to answer the "bone phone" quick, and receive his special brand of girthy love. With special emphasis on "broham", "broseph", "cock block", and "spunk drunk"!
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Yeah, kafka is right. Great idea! Let's do that!
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Also, when I got home the other day the garbage men where napping under the tree in my front yard. They ran away when the realized I was coming.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
In your 27 years (if I heard that right on the podcast), is there any nerd bandwagon you wish you had hopped on in its heyday? Any show you wish you had watched or games you wish you had played before they got "nerd popular"?
Also, will there be drinking on this podcast?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
hrmmm…. there should be, but Joel doesn't drink. But I do. And Eli does….
hrmmm……
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Then you should both drink an extra share to make up for Joel's lack.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
For the group, what are your top 10 essential albums of the 90s?
For Eli, being the comic reader of the group, what are 10 books that you think everyone should be reading right now (minus anything Whedon does cause that's a given)?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
pssh, before the party? then you gotta tell us what you have planned for it. what does Joel Watson, geek webcomicer extraordinaire do for a partay?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
and again! http://hijinksensue.com/2008/06/13/the-immaculate...
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Ive heard your cries for Denise and delivered the goods: http://hijinksensue.com/2008/06/13/the-immaculate...
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Its actually my birthday….
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
I dont see this being a problem for either of them.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
So now that Firefly: Better days is over, what were your thoughts on it?
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
I'm bogged down in LOST seasion 2 (like 3 episodes in); I've been good to not get the years of spoilers out there. The question is, should I cut my losses and stop now, or try to catch up?
Question 2: Where is Denise in the comic? Come on! She's the 4th HEer! Is she not in the comic because of your deep, abiding hatred for all those of Asiatic descent? Be honest now!
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Ha, sorry.
That's what happens when your online when you should be sleeping.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:36 am
Happy Birthday Joel!
Once again, Lord of the Rings related "question" http://missedmanners.wordpress.com/2008/01/03/bat...
Alrighty…the earth is about to spontaniously combust all you have to assist in your survival is a small cactus, Encarta98, a spoon, half a stapler, and an old plank of wood.
Good luck.
