Some of you may be aware that my site has been down for a loooong time. It's my host, they suck. I can't even contact them to be able to transfer my domain name.

So I'm just going to stat anew. I'll buy octopus-zombie.com again once it expires from my host, but I'll just have a forwarding page to the new site.

The ten dollar question: What should my new domain name be? I'm not keeping with the octopus zombie theme. It started as a joke but I let it go too far.

I'm invading twitter now.

I'm just as shocked as you are.

Friends

Before I forget I should mention that I am going to be tabling at PDX zine symposium. Gonna be selling copies of my self-published comics, zines, prints and hopefully some buttons and stickers.

Now onto thumb nailing some more comics and maybe finally getting to two watercolor paintings I've been meaning to get to.

And just as a personal gripe, I really hate it when my manager makes me work at night and then come in to work at 7 in the morning the next day to fill in for someone else.

Tagged by :darkaries: and just to dissapoint Aries I'm not going to be doing this on my AquaPirates characters. HA!
1. Choose a few of your own characters.
2. Make them answer the following questions.
3. Feel free to go ahead and add some questions yourself!!
4. Then tag three people.
Tagobi, Adelaide, Keaton, Nibal, and Dantrell (I have more, but i'm too lazy).

Who/What are you?
Adelaide: I'm a mutant. I have kind of been elected leader of a mutant society, but all I really do it yell at people for not lifting their own weight.
Tagobi: Ade, why do you keep on calling us mutants? We're humans too. anyway, I'm in this 'society' Ade's talking about. Really, it's just more of a separatist commune for people who really don't have anywhere else to be. I got stuck cooking the food, but it's okay because I like it.
Nibal: ... You really shouldn't call them mutants Adelaide. No! I'm not one of them! I'm currently attending the university for journalism.
Keaton: I'm in what ever we're calling home now! The only job I have I suck at.
Dantrell: I go looting with Keaton. Moron's good for distracting people, gets caught a lot.

Do you have any brothers or sisters?
Adelaide: They're all dead. Died of old age by now. I have no idea if they had children, don't want to know either.
Tagobi: Yes, we've had a falling out though.
Keaton: Wow, you guys are depressing. Yeah, I've got siblings. Don't see them too often but I love 'em. Got an older sister and a twin brother. I like my sister more but I'm not going to say that I hate my brother.
Nibal: I'm the youngest in my family. Three brothers a head of me.
Dantrell: No! I was a fluke baby anyway. Mom's birth control quit working.
Tagobi: YOU TOLD HIM THAT?!
Adelaide: Well he kept on asking.

What's your height?
Tagobi: 6' 3'', but really, who cares?
Adelaide: 5' 6''
Keaton: 5' 10''
Nibal: 5' 2''
Dantrell: Five feet!
Nibal: I'm at least four inches taller than you, you're not five feet tall.
Dantrell: Fine! I'm 4' 8'' if you wanna be a nit picking whore!


How old are you?
Tagobi: 37. God, I'm old.
Adelaide: I quit counting past 80, so guesstimating I'm around 95-98?
Nibal: How on earth are you nearing 100? I'm only 20 and you look only a few years older than me.
Adelaide: thank my 'deformed genes' for my slow aging.
Tagobi: You'll never get used to her messed up system.
Keaton: I'm 22.
Dantrell: I'm 12. But don't you be holding that against me muthafuckah. I'm badass. Look at Keaton, he's older than me by 10 years and I act older than him.
Tagobi: Don't confuse vulgarity for maturity.

Are you a virgin?
Nibal: That's a very personal question don't you think.
Dantrell: Nibal's a virgin!
Nibal: You have no way of knowing, and I'm surprised you even know what a virgin is.
Dantrell: Dude, I'm like a pimp.
Keaton: Really?!
Nibal: Keaton, he's 12 and is the youngest by at least seven years in your commune or whatever you call it. Who would he possibly have sex with?
Keaton: Oh, good point.
Dantrell: Nice job avoiding the question virgin!
Keaton: I'm not a virgin! But I regret losing it early...and to a whore.
Adelaide: Yeah, I'm nearly 100, age slowly, and I'm not a virgin. Why even bother asking?
Tagobi: Bit of a shallow question, but no.

Who's your mate/spouse?
Tagobi: None of of us are married or in a relationship.
Dantrell: I thought that you and Mom had a thing. And aren't you my Dad?
Tagobi: Yes, we did have a relationship, we don't anymore. And there is no evidence that I am your father.
Keaton: Nibal, we could change this no relationship thing.
Nibal: Nice try Keaton.

Do you have any kids?
Adelaide: Dantrell is my son.
Dantrell: Tagobi is so my Dad.
Tagobi: Again, no evidence.
Keaton: Holy crap, what if there are Keaton juniors running around?
Nibal: I doubt that.

What's your favorite food?
Adelaide: Rare bloody steaks
Dantrell: Spaghetti and meatballs. Actually, forget the spaghetti.
Keaton: Pasta salad.
Nibal: Some thing with yogurt and cucumber.
tagobi: Well seasoned vegetable and beef stew.

Have you ever killed anyone?
Adelaide: Heck yes.
Nibal: I most certainly have not!
Tagobi: I've avoided violence to the best of my abilities, that is all you need to know.
Dantrell: Hells yeah. I popped a cap in this one guy and hoo did he splatter.
Keaton: When was this? I've known your for three years! DID YOU KILL SOMEONE WHEN YOU WERE EIGHT?!
Nibal: Keaton, why do you even listen to this kid? Have you even even seen him with a gun?
Keaton: No.
Nibal: Then use what logic you have and realize he's lying!

Do you hate anyone?
Adelaide: I'm not a fan of Nibal.
Tagobi: I wish Keaton used his common sense more, but I don't hate him. I just give him a hard time.
Keaton: You guys are mean!
Nibal: I really don't hate anyone, but I'm fairly sure Ade doesn't like me.
Dantrell: I'm no hata!

Do you love anyone?
Tagobi: I have feelings for someone.
Dantrell: Like mom?
Tagobi: I'm growing more and more disappointed with you.
Keaton: (whispers)I have a big crush on Nibal.
Nibal: There are a few people that I fancy.
Keaton: Am I one of them?
Nibal: Tagobi, any chance of teaching Keaton some subtlety?
Tagobi: He hasn't a chance in hell.

What is your job?
Dantrell: Badass looter
Tagobi: I'm a cook and a gardener
Adelaide: I just get work done that everyone else ignores or can't do alone.
Keaton: Looter, but I wanna be a gardener!
Nibal: I just work as a cashier at a cute clothing store. I get good discounts on all of my clothes.

What do you do to relax?
Tagobi: A good smoke will do.
Adelaide: Talking to other people.
Dantrell: Video games!
Keaton: Reading novels. I like romance novels the best.
Nibal: Me too! They're so sappy and predictable most of the time, but I think that they're sweet. Why do you read them?
Keaton: They're beautiful tales of love that can't be defeated!
Nibal: Good one Keaton!
Keaton: What?

There's a person who's teasing you; what could you do?
Adelaide: Knife 'em. I don't need to take crap from people.
Dantrell: Mom, you're so kick ass.
Tagobi: You're ruining your son...And I'd just shrug it off. I'm better than them anyway.
Keaton: I'd take it like a man! (translation: pout and whine about it later)
Nibal: I have to agree with Tagobi, people teasing you are insecure. Don't feed into their needs and they'll leave you alone.

Let's say there's a person you really care about but she/he doesn't know your feelings. How do you tell her/him?
Keaton: Well I'm trying to drop Nibal the hint, but I think I'm doing it wrong.
Nibal: What hint? You're clearly all over me!
Keaton: You've noticed? Does that mean you love me?
Adelaide: Depends on the person, but I usually like to be straight forward.
Tagobi: I think that small kind gestures work fairly well.
Dantrell: Grab their ass!

What kind of powers do you have?
Adelaide: Well I age very slowly. And if I'm seriously injured then my body will instead heal the injury instead of slowing my aging. Oh man, you should have seen how much I aged when I broke both my legs.
Tagobi: You got A WRINKLE that's it. I have so many wrinkles. But a lot of it has to do with the fact that my skin is crazy. I got tick, callousy spots and then the rest is left kind of weak and dry. It's really bad around my joints.
Keaton: But you aren't as affected by hot or cold!
Tagobi: So? I've got crappy joints and more wrinkles than I should. Plus if i move around too much the skin around my joints will bleed.
Nibal: I have a good sense of fashion?
Keaton: Why are you under estimating yourself? You are on a full scholarship because you've been doing archery since you were six.
Nibal: I'm not that good at it. My parents were the archers. And I only got the scholarship because no one else does archery anymore!
Dantrell: I can heal well, but not like mom. My body makes too much blood so it can heal, but I always have some open wound to let the extra blood flow out.
Keaton: Well I don't have much of a power. I have slightly better hearing, sight, taste, and smell than the average person.

What is your sexuality?
Dantrell: We don't got any faggots in this round!
Nibal: Except Dantrell. He likes butt sex.
Dantrell: YOU BITCH, YOU WHORE!! KEATON KEEP YOUR SLUT IN LINE!! SMACK HER ON THE MOUTH!
Keaton: Stop, please!!!

Now tag five people:
You liar. You said three at the beginning.

I'm making a last call for my digital 500x500 commissions. They are only $5, paypal only. Cards will still be available (I should probably poop some more out)
Journal Entry [link]

After that I may offer more serious commissions, but I'm still not sure. I mean, no one really commissions me anyway and I should be spending more time on thumbnailing.
