It's a jungle sometimes, makes me wonder how I keep from going under

About Me

Listen, I'm Dave, and I ain't got time for this malarky.

Here's the deal: I go to school. I come home. I play computer games. I eat. I play some more. I go to sleep. repeat. It's not exciting, but it's mine.
Sometimes I read. Nothing compares to a great book.
I'm opinionated, get over it.
I like to dance, but rarely do outside my home.
I'm a meat-eater. Vegetarianism can see itself to the door.
I eat ice cream cones, plain.
I like having conversations.
I sing random song lyrics. A lot. Shit I don't even really know the words to.
I make jokes you may not get. Don't worry, I won't think less of you if you don't, though I will act as if I do, because that increases the funny.
I'm in a gaming clan with a pretty cool bunch of guys (and a gal). We met up recently at cedar point, and let me tell you....it was sick. Sickly awesome. Like "Whoa" Joey Laurence style.

Check out my webcomic. I do the writing and my fellow clanmate Debaser does the drawing. We've only just begun, but expect a comic out once a week. Nubcakes NOTE: It's been discontinued because some kid doesn't think he can draw anymore. I dunno, but I'll leave the link up for nostalgia.
Ok, here's what's up. You know Ducktales? That show rocked. I even had the video games for the NES. I hopped on my cane, raced MacDuff to the loot and whatnot. I pwned that game. Launchpad was like "wtf scrooge? you pwn". Daisy Duck woulda dumped Donald in a second if she got a hold of me. Anyways. Rescue Rangers was awesome too. Gadget...don't even tell me you didn't have a crush on her. Men dig the brains, they dig the brains, and don't let anyone tell you different.

Fuck Garfield. Jim Davis is out for money. You want a real comic strip, you go look up Gary Larson or Bill Watterson. The Far Side and Calvin & Hobbes (respectively) were the greatest comic strips of our time. Peanuts? Screw'em. The only thing peanuts had going for them were those cartoons with the adults that sounded like they were coming through a drive-through box. That was cool, but otherwise, they sucked. If I ever get a tattoo, it's gonna be calvin & hobbes. Shit yeah.

Here's the 411: Fedora's are pimp. I've been rockin' mine out since 2004, and I ain't givin' it up. In fact, at some point I'll be expanding my hat repertoire to include other awesome hats.


Here is one sweet song: MyGen Profile Generator

Winnie the Pooh + Other Shit

So I was thinking about Winnie the Pooh while talking a buddy of mine.  And my initial though was that Winnie the Pooh is a bad role model.  Why is he a bad role model?  Because he does...

It's been so long, have you missed me?

Who is "you" in that title?  Is it people who read this? Or maybe I'm talking to myspace itself.  Maybe I'm speaking to myself even.....some crazy partitioned self that only exists when I st...

Culling All Cars

Fuck automobiles.  There are way too many of them out there and a lot of cities require them to get around.  Yeah, you can live without a car in NYC or Chicago or something, but you ain't go...

Sometimes I just don't come across as eloquent.

This ought to be a shocker to those of you who read my blog.  That is sarcasm.  My rants are usually a tad over-filled with profanity, I don't really explain the points I'm making, and reall...

What the fuck with this crap?

So I'm sitting here, talking with a friend of mine and I look at my myspace page and I notice that the blog I wrote last night isn't on there.  Where the fuck did it go?  I could've sworn I ...

My favorite book

So, without a doubt, my favorite book is The War of the Flowers by Tad Williams.  I love Martin and his series.  And as far as writing goes I probably consider Martin a much stronger writer ...
