Quote from: RobClock on December 19, 2024, 08:31:06 PMhere's a fish i drew today

you've done something here that I've been bewildered by for a long time and never quite had the language to describe. it's a quality of linework that I can never quite put my finger on.
it happens in my own drawings sometimes but I can't do it consistently for the life of me

it's... creating the impression of depth with lines alone, but that doesn't quite capture what I mean. the fish just looks round, doesn't it? especially the head

and I don't think it's just having a really rich understanding of perspective, because even tracing an actual photograph doesn't get quite what I'm talking about, it's a really elusive quality

there was a local artist around a decade ago who did paintings with really careful depictions of gloves in the style of old rubber hose cartoons, like these

and he always nailed it, made them just look so...... WORD, that I don't have, that describes this, where they aren't 3d but look like they could exist in 3d space in that roger rabbity way

Stillness of Time, by Salvador Dali

or

The Craven Heifer


These are my current artistic fixations

mmmm... I dunno man that's a pretty sick heifer

I have done two (2) minutes of research and learned the standard breakfast breakfast is generally called a "full breakfast."
that's fit and descriptive but it feels misleading because "continental breakfast" isn't called a "light breakfast" it isn't called a "partial breakfast" it isn't called a "whatever foods can be stored at room temperature breakfast"

by the standard of "continental breakfast" a full breakfast should be called a king's breakfast or a frontier roughneck breakfast or a yahoo wahooey hooray breakfast please implement this as soon as possible

I can't believe a "continental breakfast" is just muffins and fruits and stuff. bullshit. in my heart when I hear that phrase it feels like it should definitely be like eggs and bacon and hash browns and toast and english tea or orange juice or milk, the standard breakfast breakfast that I don't think we have a name for

"oh, this is my continental chainsaw, it's a pair of hedgeclippers" fuck off

"come on now, hootie-hoo
hootie-hoo hootie-hoo hootie-hoo"
- gnarls barkley, "crazy"

I had one of those but it wasn't a straw it was a ball and instead of an eye it was a ball-shaped werewolf

Quote from: Slurpee on December 11, 2024, 09:48:03 PMI had a mnemonic device because I always got it wrong: "see, seer? eegah!" like an excited english peasant showing a seer the movie Eegah

dude wtf.
this sentence definitely originally read "I had a mnemonic device because I always got it wrong: 'see, see? 'e rega' like an excited english peasant telling a seer that he just proved somebody's rega (rhymes with vega from street fighter.)" when I sent it. why would it be an english peasant unless he's not pronouncing the h in "he"? it makes no sense

Quote from: Slurpee on December 11, 2024, 09:08:51 PMNeil Ciciricieirgera

oh COME ON

now all of a sudden his name is cierciega? it was definitely cicierega, I had a mnemonic device because I always got it wrong: "see, seer? eegah!" like an excited english peasant showing a seer the movie Eegah
but it changed and was cicierga three seconds ago, I have it copied to my clipboard, look: Cicierega.

WTF

"mandala"? like mancala? gimme a fricken break. tell me you wouldn't automatically pronounce that "mon-doll-ah."
everybody has pronounced it "man-dell-uh" your entire life WHO ARE THEY TRYING TO FOOL?

wait it just switched back to mandela

also it was definitely spelled mandela until a couple seconds ago

that was a joke but the mandela effect was definitely not named after nelson mandela for the first like two years after I heard of it. it was too obvious of a connection, it was the first assumption my brain jumped to because he's the main dude people know by that name and of course it wouldn't be named after him. it was named after the psychologist who first documented the phenomenon. until it wasn't. suddenly one day it was named after nelson mandela and the absurd idea that there was a mysterious phenomenon where a bunch of people specifically misremembered him dying in prison in the 80's. didn't happen. not him dying in prison, of course that didn't happen, what didn't happen is a bunch of people thinking he died in prison in the 80's. that's insanely stupid. he was specifically famous for being falsely imprisoned for a really long time. if he died, he wouldn't be famous for being falsely imprisoned, he'd be a martyr.  anyway he was the friggin president of south africa for most of my childhood and I remember that very distinctly because he met the spice girls. you would have to have been paying less attention to global politics than a fifth grader whose older sister liked the spice girls to think he had died in the 80's. it DIDN'T HAPPEN. the mandela effect was named after another mandela who has been disappeared from our timeline. the cruelest of ironies

got mendel effected out of the universe where the mandela effect was named after gregor mendel

I'd probably just assume I'd been racist again, like with flavor flav and welcome to earth, but I bet Busting by Neil Ciciricieirgera would sound really fucking weird and it would bother me

I have an easy time eventually accepting most "mandela effects" as just me being dumb, but Ricky Martin definitely came out of the closet twice and it will bother me for the rest of my life

well that's an amusing coincidence
