Rape is never funny but slaughtering countless innocents is?

What the heck are you guys smoking?

The pain of others is funny no matter how its presented and/or inflicted.

The reason we have pain is because it makes other people happy! That's why we have Schadenfreude. :D Gary Coleman taught me all about it.

*went to see Avenue Q today*

Was that a gigglesnort? Or something in your head breaking? Or was it you being angry at something being offensive? Or was it you thinking that the last option I just put out was completely absurd?

I myself am smoking a nice cigar and I think I saw some purple haze from some other people.

I'm not sure. I believe my mind destroyed the memory of whatever it was out of self-preservation.

lol thats good

Well.

He probably should have.

Edit: Also, when did you become devout enough to include cheesy Christian poems in your sig and revere people who pray in comics?

It's not a cheesy christian poem. It's a quote by an LDS leader

You're Mormon? Hmm.

Never really pegged you as the religious type, though.

Awesome motivators. ^^

What exactly is the religious type?

come to think of it, lunaya, that is one big question. you shouldn't ask it casually and expect a worthy reply.

and personally, i don't know too much about SG117, but from what i DO know, i'm the reason. when he found out there were other lds on this forum, he changed everything about himself to fit in with these firends. either that or he wasn't expecting it and didn't want to be caught off guard.

Reply 666! lol

The gF made me post this. >>



Also hai.

Teehee. <3 My baby's clever.

Zulchep's my girlfriend, by the way.

Goood for her.

But what does it mean?

It makes fun of the parallels between Cale and Drizzt Do'Urden, the infamous Drow. Cale's character is very much an homage to Drizzt, who also sought to be a good member of an evil race, who also had a black panther companion, and who also slayed an Earth Elemental in that exact fashion. XD

Not that *exact* fashion but pretty close to it. I tried to find a scan from the comic version of Homeland, where Drizzt kills the earth elemental, but couldn't find it.

Figures that my brother-in-law has my copy.

Except that Sohmer told us he had never even heard of Drizzt until after he created Cale. =P

Love the motivator though, Zulchep. Welcome to the madness.

Doesn't mean the parallels aren't there.

Touche.

A play off of an old one.

It can't be an homage if it isn't meant to be one.

are you kidding, that was his subconscious speaking, couldn't you tell he knew he'd die?

Uh.

The slaying of the Earth Elemental is obviously an homage. Deny that.

i was referring to hctib, look for context clues

After witnessing the power of religion first-hand on pages 105-106? Some revelation. ^^


As for the whole Drizzt thing, I really don't get why Cale can't possibly be a homage to Drizzt. Just because Lar hadn't known about Drizzt back when he came up with Cale doesn't mean he wouldn't use him as a parody ground when he DID find out about him.
In a nutshell, the idea of a uniquely good elf with a black panther companion as well as dual-wielding and archery skills may not have been homage to Drizzt, but what's to stop him from becoming one?

I was talking to Kerrah.

shulda left context clues

Yeeees. This is my point exactly.

The parallels ARE there and have been from the beginning. It just seems that since Sohmer discovered a certain CG Drow that Cale has become a bit more of a parody/homage.

ok this is funny. much like the first one.

no,no, its Chaotic evil for the win

we should not have drunk that last tankard last night... i hope she is that pretty in the monrnning.

i suck at paint

Bwahahahaha! I knew that there was a reason we kept imps around!

That's great, Taz!

no, no it's not.

Taz, that one of yours is sheer genius

I was rereading the comic, and this just jumped out at me. I have the wounds to prove it.

That part of the story was told by Richard, and was made up on the spot for his amusement.

The text squares have red linings, which unfortunately don't show very good.

Therefore, the "dark lord" is supposed to look like Richard, since he is probably imagining himself enslaving all dragons.

Shh... it's still neat.

I didn't even notice the change of border. >.<

Hey, there's nothing saying that didn't actually happen.
