We here at Sold Out don't feel we need to actually give you things like sideplots and things of such nature. You know, the ones that aren't interesting and are just there to get you from point A to point C, by going through point B? Fuck point B. The shortest distance between two points is a wormhole.
I'm going to skip talking about the truth freedom liberators. Are we really surprised anymore when the Bush administration fucks up?
I’d like to say something on the way of advertising. Now, I love the people at Blank Label Comics, don’t get me wrong. I am proud to support my brothers in web comics who have thrown off the shackles of Keendom. I seriously love you guys. Plus, you have Real Life Comics. That’s like the best comic ever, only tainted by its semi-frequent server maintenance issues. But seriously folks, your advertising scheme sucks. Now, I’m glad to have given my $20 to the cause, but let’s face it, my ad was buried in a sludge of your own ads. Why advertise for yourself on your own site? What sense does this make? If people don’t repeatedly see someone’s ad, they don’t remember it.
For that matter, though I supposedly received 26,666 impressions, I only GOT 200 hits off it. Adsense gives better returns, and Adsense sucks balls. If you guys want to keep running, I suggest you get a better advertising campaign together, that’s one of your big money makers fellows.
I still love you guys at BLC. Sorry to call you out in public here, but it had to be said.
Speaking of people who have thrown off the shackles of Keendom, Good old Poe and Scary Devil Girl of Errant Story are also becoming emancipated. This is good, because now they can advertise, and there is nothing like a friend to hook you up with the advertising. Expect to see hits pouring in by the truck load next Tuesday-Thursday. Thanks you guys, hope to see you in Vegas if you can make it!
…I’m allowed to give shout outs here, it is my choosing.
Let me say again, if you plan on advertising, the best bang for your buck is Bob and George. They so gave us the mad hook up, and we’ll be advertising with them again next month.
I’m sure all this talk of advertising is boring you. Let’s talk about my favorite new gadget. I became a trendy a short while ago. That’s right, I got an iPod. It’s a mini with 4 gigs of memory, in green, and says “STOLEN PROPERTY” on it. It’s totally the pimp shit.
I find I have a problem though. See, I wear it most now when I am walking. On campus, I tend to do a good deal of walking - and sweating, since this is Alabama, and it’s about two meters from the sun‘s surface here. The humidity actually defies physics, and somehow is more saturated than the ocean. That’s not my real problem here. The problem is, I feel those old high school marching band syndrome blues biting me in the ass. I find myself stepping in rhythm to the tune. I find myself rolling my heels. Suddenly, I realize what I’m doing, and I worry. Will I do this my whole life? When I get a song with phat bass, am I going to start doing the band nerd strut?
I feel like I have said too much. I am pulling back now. Before I leave, I have discovered the greatest article writer on the internet. How I never found him before is beyond me, because the man is fucking famous. This man is Tucker Max. The man is my new hero. All he does is go out drinking and bangs broads. God speed to you, Tucker my man.
I need to learn to just shut up when I have already dug my own hole. Peace. | |

And may I also say that I find your rants interesting, informative, and entertaining?
Keep up the good work!
