Not that there's anything wrong with it

Yup yup. funny week so far haha.

Free time

Yup yup later.

"Just one fix. To keep me in the mix. And I'm still strung out on you. Drove all night. I'm the deer in your headlights. What's left of me you'll swallow soon. Too much of you is never enough."

Eat Lighting and Crap Chowda

Here is my favorite title. It is from Andy. I think this is the last of the submitted titles. So thanks to those submitted. MUCH LOVE!!!

"I won't change the world with a song. Perhaps it's futile to comment. On a revolution somewhere else."
(Descant, Less Than Jake)

Who watchs the Watchmen? ME!

Taking a break from the submitted titles to bring you my favorite line from the Watchmen cause I'm going to see it tonight. Though it's hybrid of the movie and book. Seems the movie doesn't directly quote Rorschach, but reworked the line. Which I would have to fit, but I think it's awesome. The last panel is all me. haha.

YAY WATCHMEN!!!

"I wasn't born so much as I fell out. Nobody seemed to notice me. We had a hedge back home in the suburbs. Over which I never could see."
(Lost in the Supermarket, The Clash)

zombies ahead! Run for cold climates!

Today's Title courtesy of Muestela. Zombies, always funny.

Tim vs. the snow

I figured it be good since it's snowing. Today's title comes from(I think) David Mire. He had a theme of me fighting things haha.

By the way check out my new portfolio site, click here.

"Some people like to rock 'n' roll. You're always singin' the blues."
(Bad Luck, Social Distortion)

Cartoony Tim solves world hunger AND halts global warming

Today's title comes from Animator Dave. SCHOOOOOO!

I Quit Smoking!

If you missed yesterdays and confused click here.

The title today was also donated by Fitz. I'm pretty sure this wasn't what he meant(He wants me to quit). But I find this far more interesting haha.

That is all, later.

In Retrospect, Not a Good Idea

Today's guest title is brought to you by my good friend Fitz. His titles actually setup for a two parter, so tune in tomorrow for part two.

"I'm a suspect, I'm a traitor. I'm only here in body, visiting. Yellow faces and the distant screams. 'The beauty is in what isn't said'. I'm rising to my feet."
(Chase This Light, Jimmy Eat World)

Drunken cleverness

Yup, went to see my friends Distant Orange and Tremor and drank. They had $1.50 yuengling man. The sad part was I had work at 9 am. Luckily I got up with no problems.

Okay still recovering, later.

"You suck so passionately. You're a parasitic psycho, filthy creature. Finger-bangin' my heart. You call me up drunk. Does the fun ever start? You're hideous and sexy!"
(Love Me Dead, Ludo)

I do not condone crucifixtion

I find this idea funny cause people blame tv, movies, and video games for being violent, but there is plenty of violence in the bible. Though I'm sure this isn't a shocking revelation to some.

I'm just saying.

P.S. TITLES TITLES TITLES!

Dammit Bill

Well it's obvious, and obvious is my business haha. The reason I choose Bill is simply because he and I have beards, also he smokes. So the choice was clear. As for Cartoony Tim as Zoe, it's just funny.

Don't forget, the clock is ticking on submitting those titles. DO IT NOW!!!!

"A crack in the surface. A flaw in the plan. Plans we made together, almost buried in the sand. A cadence imperfect. Like a building condemned. Can we indemnify ourselves if we don't face what we're against."
(Hairline Fracture, Rise Against)

Let's Duet

Say Anything's finest "baseball but better". I thought it be a nice song for valentines day. Also it lent to a Cartoony Tim and Tim duet.

Happy V-Day all.

(Baseball, But Better, Say Anything)

Written by the new app, ijoke

As always, I'm not making this up, it is a real app and it's not the only one, there are ones you have to pay for too haha. In one sitting I read all the lines that it offered, most were pretty weak.

One of the best that didn't make the comic(cause it wasn't funny) was on along the lines of make it my best day ever. Most of the rest were pretty ridiculous, and if said with a straight face, you may do okay. Two of the worst that ended on the cutting room floor were "If you were a booger I'd pick you first" and "Your eyes are as blue as my toilet water at home."

In an unrelated to this comic announcement. I plan to ask you, my loyal readers, to submit to me titles of comics. It can be about anything "Monkeys go ape" "victory over Athens" anything. If I think of something funny to go draw to it, it'll end up in the next comic. So start submitting your ideas. I will set a deadline at Sunday February 22. For no other reason that it's two Sundays from now. So please submit your ideas. I need em.

"We ran like vampires from a thousand burning sons. But even then we should have stayed. But we ran away. Now all my friends gone. Maybe we’ve outgrown all the things that we once loved."
(Audience of One, Rise Against)

No patience

Yea I sent out for jobs. Waiting to hear back.

It is done

Yup, I finally finished a 3-D portfolio. I think it's my best stuff. I posted on my art blog(which I haven't updated in 82 weeks apparently) so go here to check it out.

"Drown the pain with cheap champagne. And wake me when it's time to go. I'm far to faded to celebrate it. This clock is moving way too slow. One more year like this one. I could never make it on my own."
(Clown Cars On Cinder Blocks, Dillinger Four)

Bah on 3-D lighting

If you are lost and think you need context for this joke. I'm talking about lighting in my 3-D program. It's hard, don't know why, it's pretty straight forward but somehow it just doesn't always click. In any case I'm working on lighting my latest 3-d object. As soon as I'm done that, I think it's time to search for work. I'll have 8 pieces for my portfolio so I think it's time.

"I was out on the radio starting to change. Somewhere out in America, it's starting to rain. Could you tell me one thing you remember about me. I remember me."
(Have You Seen Me Lately, Counting Crows)

Anticipation

Yup. Later.

"And stripes on fire, these hands are tired. I’m making plans to drink away all these words I can’t escape. I have to try to make you stay. Because I’m alone, stay with me this time."
(Hanging Marionette, Appleseed Cast)

Penguins!

I find it interesting I seem to talk about video games more then anything anymore. Strange.

It is an awesome album, if you like pop punk go get it.

"Yeah I'm stealing cigarettes. Selling them off to friends for rent. Plus a pay check and still in debt?"
(Minimum Wage Is A Gateway Drug, Dillinger Four)

Why Wii why?

(Crossing the Frame, Coheed And Cambria)

Paternity Test(conclusion)

Yea, that's about it. Later.

"I'm glad you found your answers. In your parents' fairy tales. Spin around in circles with no wind to push the sails. Mythology and magic, religion's all the same. The world turns to a desert while you pray for rain."
(The Classical Arrangement, Dillinger Four)

Equipment

Another fun comic from winter-een-mas.

I ended up using knives

HAPPY WINTER-EEN-MAS EVERYONE!!!

We celebrated early yesterday by throwing our annual Winter-een-mas day of gaming. There were problems getting started and some later but eventually the day was filled with Halo 3, rock band 2 and scene it. I also introduced some to Left 4 Dead.

As for the comic the title explains the rest of the story. I played with the handles so I wouldn't cut Fitz's drums. Luckily they were just butter knives so I was fine. And it comforted me that someone else played drums with the knifes too.

I close with a Thanks to Miguel, Jesus, Fitz, Dave and Chris for a fun day.

Keep your pants on Dave I'll get to it tomorrow.

And for the who's the daddy comic there is a part two which will come after that.

"One of these days I swear I'm gonna get out. 'Til then your love is a mutt from hell that I can't live without."
(Love Is a Mutt From Hell, Wheatus)

Paternity Test

Yup, who is the real daddy?

"I will hold you close, If your afraid of heights. I need you to see this place, It might be the only way. That I can show you how, it feels to be inside of you."
(Stellar, Incubus)

Secrets

Thanks to those who commented after the last post. I appreciate letting me know you're all still there.

I do. I kinda think of it as me trying to be hip and young(chucks), but secretly I'm just old(comfort soles). Also the fact that chucks are my work shoes and I'm on my feet all day so it's easier on my legs and back.

"You told me you can't wait to see me and then you didn't bother to even show up. This whole situation is incredibly typical, I should have seen it all along."
(Last Chance To Lose Your Keys, Brand New)

The lights are on but noones home

Yea, I'm starting to worry my audience has shrunk to nothing. There has been a lack of comments and I'm beginning to worry.

Yes this is a thinly veiled attempt to get comments again. The only thing that would be worse if I would fail haha.

"I opened the fridge, I opened a beer and played a tape I couldn't hear. Emptiness began to grow. And I'm wondering where did you go?"
(Where'd You Go?, Mighty Mighty Bosstones)

OOOOOOOOO clear

Yea, I get the big screen to myself this weekend so I'm taking advantage haha.

Later

"I don't have to be a musclebound fool to show her I'm the fool for her. She doesn't mind when I get another tattoo. She just asks me if it hurt."
(Ivory Girl, Down By Law)

I dream of modeling toilets in the big leagues

I imagine some of you tuned in thinking I'm literally doing the title. That I dream of wearing a toilet on a runway haha.

Yup, for my portfolio I'm modeling a bathroom, lot's of stuff to model. Also it's true, they hardly ever talk about background design, I mean you gotta build all that stuff.

Tis all, later.

"I was nervous from the start that our muscles might tear us apart(are muscles tearing us apart?). From the words that carve our lives to the words that take us by surprise(I was never taken by surprise). From the sounds that disappeared to the changes we begin to fear(I can hear you clearly). One day I'll fail to breathe, and all you'll have are memories(All we have are memories)"
(Time Turn Fragile, Motion City Soundtrack)

Blinders

Yup, focusing on making work for my portfolio. So updates may not be as frequent. Think about it.

"A brand new day just finds you. Thinking of the nights before her. Still losing sleep, oh it's. It's nothing new, nothing more."
(Laughtrack, The Acro-Bratsd)

The top came off of my sippie cup

Yup, been busy with stuff that I don't talk about till after I'm done. Thus TOP SECRET!!! Haha, I don't need attention at all.

Well I managed to put a curse and Simpsons reference into the rant haha. I'm just that good haha.

"I've experiments to run, there is research to be done. On the people who are still alive."
(Still Alive, GLaDOS & Jonathan Coulton)

Sick leave

Yup, not completely over it but by tomorrow I should be fine.

I'd like to get that kinda service

Yup, the district manager apparently.

"Have you ever felt that. Something, you know that. Something that keeps you sane?"
(Motto, Less Than Jake)

Jury money

Though I can't think of anything illegal I could do for 9 bucks. I find the idea of having the city pay for illegal activities funny.

Coat Hangers

FIRST COMIC OF THE YEAR!!!

Yup Jay forgot the drumsticks, and (completely sober) thought coat hangers was a good substitute.

Happy New Year folks.

"This must be it. Welcome to the new year. The drinks were consumed, the plants were destroyed, and the hors d'oeuvres dismantled."
(Together We'll Ring In The New Year, Motion City Soundtrack)

Twenty four years to midnight

I think it was Y2K that started freaking me out. I don't recall worrying about it before then, but then again I don't recall much haha. Also seems like a post secret thing too.

Happy New Years folks. I don't have work tomorrow. WOOO!

"But maybe we've been better off with our heads in the sand. You could leave us to drown here according to plan. But if this ship's going down, you'll find me with the band."
(Drastic, The Loved Ones)

They also made us line up & My paranioa of their paranoia got the best of me

Yup I earned my nine dollars today.

Also in a rare rare occasion, I did two in one day. Freaky man.

Oh my financial whoas.

(Whoa On The Whoas, NoFx)

I can function

Hope you all had merry ones and got decent stuff. I got (amoung other things) guitar hero pjs. Weird huh?

Anywho. It is bittersweet to only have to work 5 hours. But it's only the beginning so I now have to search for more employment.

"I know you love me most, no one else take my place. You need me, yes you do. Forever, and ever."
(Baby Love Child, Pizzicato Five)

A Christmas classic

I say again, Merry Christmas folks. My absences can be explained by having to get to work at 6am for a straight week and having to work on another thing that needed to take priority.

That's about it, later folks.

"Do they know it's Christmastime at all?"
(Do They Know Its Christmas, Band Aid)

Springy

That's right, we are in year four of Stars on the Ceiling. I just forgot haha. I was on the bus when I realized. I did do a comic that day but I didn't mention the anniversary and unwittingly celebrated it haha.

Later folks.

"Daylight fading. Come and waste another year. All the the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear. Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn. When we see the early signs that daylight's fading. We leave just before it's gone."
(Daylight Fading, Counting Crows)

Familiar feelings

Now now kids. Don't you worry, I'm probably not getting fired. Considering how often they were mad at me last year it's unlikely, but still. I worry.

"Well, I've got a bad feeling about this"
(A Decade Under The Influence, Taking Back Sunday)

Still Lost

When I think about it all I want out of life is to live on my own, have money to pay bills and do whatever I want. How I'd get there I still have no idea. I think in this I'm getting pissed cause I'm not working towards anything. I'm just working at the store, drawing a comic here or there, and play video games. Other then that I don't work to some goal. Funny thing is I don't know what I wanna work towards. Cause I also worry that at the other side I'll be no closer then I am now. I think up to this point has freaked me out. Going to college and all that and I'm still at home. I guess I believed in that whole go to college and then you'll have a job, which happen to some but not to me.

Bah, well the season is almost up, so I need to figure out a plan. Cause my large amount of hours will be cut as soon as the season is over. *sigh*

Later folks.

"This is how to build a better enemy. We work together and we get it done. I'm not exactly who I used to be. So shut your mouth or else you're fucking gone."

I shit you not

Indeed. For further proof, look here.

(Cassie, Flyleaf)

Bedroom Scene

Couple things about this comic. First thing is that the things I'm thinking while sleeping are actual things I dream about just before I wake up. I feel an anxiety that I'm at work in my dreams. It kinda feels like when I dream about being chased or something. Two in keeping with my newly discovered joy of adding some detail to my drawings. My bedroom is (somewhat) accurately represented in this comic. And the thing to the left of me in the last panel is not Gnomes or elves. They're actually Goku and Vegeta as super sayiens.

Well that's about it. Talk to you all manana.

"It's nothing I'll forget when the moon gets tired. You are stuck to me everyday. Believe in what I am because it's all I have today. And tomorrow who knows where we'll be. From here I can hardly see a thing. But I will follow anyone who brings me to you. For now, forever, for on and on and on."
(Every Thug Needs A Lady, Alkaline Trio)

Are you there Tim? It's me Master Chief

Just to be clear, I don't fantasize about master chief stalking me. I just find it hilarious for a strong bad ass character acting like a needy whiny guy haha. And after looking into my old comics, this isn't the first time I avoided his calls.

Another Stars on the Ceiling fun fact. The answering machine is a drawing of my real one. Though that's not groundbreaking I do find it cool I drew something real instead of just making it up for once.

"A movie, still photograph. Through a martyr's eyes I can see. I've seen the best of love, the best of hate, the best reward is earned. And I've paid for every single word I ever said."
(Chase This Light, Jimmy Eat World)

Bavenge me

Up to where I was up late playing God of War II(11, but I had work at 6) is true, everything else is made up. If you couldn't guess.

"I gotta know tonight. If you're alone tonight. Can't stop this feelin'. Can't stop this fire. Oh."

Christmas spirit

Seriously. I even told my mom I don't care if we do nothing. At least in terms of decorating haha.

My brain is going deaf

I seem to enjoy it when I draw more detail.

(A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More "Touch Me", Fall Out Boy)

Has anybody thought about it?

Yup yup. If anybody was wondering, I am attempting to get back into doing comics. I have regained a little of my want to draw the comic again. But so far it's very little. But I'll work on it haha.

"There was a verse that I was gonna write I haven't yet. But there's still a chance I might An open book. That I still want to close I'll find the time."
