Of the Somewhat Irregular Webcomic

I started reading IWC a few years ago and then stopped more than a year ago...when Kitt set up her new blog, I noticed her linking to the place. A spark lit a candle, dormant in my soul for years. Last night, I stayed up till 2 AM reading up on what I missed...I missed quite a bit. A total or around 400 episodes.

What makes this thing special or 'Irregular' you ask ?

It updates once a day.

It combines physics, elements of RPG, lego and TV tropes.

Great humor, only missed 1 or 2 updates in its into history of 5 years.
Hiroshima/Nagasaki reference. I love this guy...theoretically .

Of Writer's Block and Music

I can't think of anything to blog about. My blog grew up in a world of Runescapers and unfortunately, there is lack of interest in Titan Quest...or dumb humor. I need ideas, people ! lolcats and Chuck Norris jokes can't last forever.

Just like Tim, I also want to embed some music into this bucket. The ones I'm looking for are:

Once in Every Lifetime - Jem The Eragon soundtrack don't come cheap

Beethoven Virus (a version that doesn't kill my eardrums)

Its the End of the World as We Know it.

Free versions of these songs and knowledge of how to embed them would come in handy. I have also considered Everyday by Carly Commando...

S O freaking S !

Of Muse and Calling it Quits.

I have quit Runescape. I doesn't appeal to me anymore, not enough combat, too many quests, noobs and spammers. Look on the Rants forum if you want to see what I mean. My membership runs out in May and its gonna stay that way for a very long time.

As for these 'Of' titles, Musings of a Small Mind is my new title but that lil bit of info beneath the title is now gonna say: Oh Muse ! Grant me voice and memory to tell...after tell, the word 'Of' comes in. I want that lil line to connect with my titles in some small way.

Of Spam and the End of the World

Quote: lol so u dont like people with bad grammer? go fuck ur self then noob lvl 70s arent high lvls, and stop whining about bad grammer ur one of those noobs that jagex is worring about End Quote.

I found at least 7 errors in there that aren't slang, netlingo or shortened versions of regular words. That, my friends, is how Boombaye1's theory of reverse evolution works.

A while ago, I got this comment. Since I don't ever check back on the comments on old posts, I only ran into this one when I was deleting E-Mails. I'm lucky though, Marlaine has to deal with something along the lines of 200 spam comments per post and I expect at least 20 of them should be from haters.

Listen, Sparky, I don't care what you say about me, I have my opinions and you have yours ! I don't meddle with you so you don't meddle with me ! Capiche ? You have one chance to pull yourself back together before the Ban Hammer comes down. Gah ! I just read on Kitt's New Blog that Blogger doesn't let you ban anymore ! Great. My last line of defence is gone. Now I see why Tim doesn't allow comments, Kitt stopped blogging and Marlaine doesn't use Blogger.

Kitt has changed genders to slow down people making passes at her and something about outfits. I changed mine just for fun at first but then, watching how many people would ask me out (the red outfit helped) I now hang around on free worlds a lot and report anyone who asks for a BF/GF.

Kitt says hell is other people. I say this isn't life, this is Hell with fluorescent lighting.

Here are a couple links I ran into at Yahoo!

End of the Earth Day
Take a look at the solutions to these problems, they're the best part.

Films that make Your High-School History Teacher Cry
Gotta love Speedos (You didn't hear it from me)

I am getting closer to changing my blog title to Musings of a Small Mind. It seems more fitting.

Boombaye1 over and out !

Of Post Titles, Money and Sandpaper

Most blog post titles tell you something about the topic. 'A Bright Prospect for Merchants', 'The Good, the Bad and the Stupid' and 'Tips on Magic.....Summoning.....' are prime examples. Mine are no less the same. I've lost that creative jest when creating post titles and most will now start with 'Of' Kitt seems to have the most humorous and creative and I can't mine humorous and creative without crossing the copywrite line.

While I was casually strolling about in Lumbridge on a free world and reporting noobs (Wow, me, reporting noobs. Shocker) 2 people said I was showing off my high level and equipment in the space of 1 hour. Why shouldn't I be allowed to show my Dragon Sq Shield or my level 100 Combat ? I earned it through hard work and you should stop flapping your git and get yourself to work earning something. This isn't a case where Daddy's Little Princess phones Daddy and within 1 hour, shes strolling down Main Street, flaunting that diamond studded purse of hers. She didn't earn it, she shouldn't make it look like shes better than anyone else here.

My lips and mouth feel like sandpaper. I got myself dehydrated when school started and I can't yawn without feeling nerve ending swear at me. That glass of water in front of my monitor is also obstructing my vision ! That and I'll allow 3 Days to answer the questions I post before I post my ideas and/or answers.

Boombaye's Questions of the Post:

How many things are in the WOM's house that don't exist anywhere else ?

Shellshock: What does it do ?

Why do people use fake flavourants in concentrated lemon juice but real lemon juice in dishwashing liquid ?
