So... the whole "Save Haiti" plan? Didn't really...
How was I to know you needed tickets? Being me of course, I got in anyway for free but then felt really guilty and came on home. My plans for a night out ruined!
Ah well, backup plans ahoy! Seems I bought an xbox live wireless adaptor while I was out. If any of you gamers see a Noob our there called Hero-Inpace, you know who’s on the other end getting pwned.
Off to save Haiti!
Hell if I have any plans worked out for actually getting back.
REGARDLESS! ADVENTURE AWAY!
HAITI RELIEF PEOPLE!
This is on Sunday yes? At the limelight? What time are people gonna be there and is anyone able to give me a lift back afterwards?
Anonymous asked: Hey Greg. The truth is everyone feels the way you're feeling at some point, or perhaps even all the time. It seems that part of being human is wanting what others have. Not in terms of material possessions or physical appearance necessarily, but personalities, friendships, relationships and ultimate happiness. The thing is though, what we project on the outside is very different to what...
Hi All!
It’s been a few days, And I’m sure the number one question asked by everyone has been “where’s Greg at?” pfft. I wish….
Well life’s remained relatively dull. I got the 360 back, so that’s part o’ why I ain’t been on here, but there’s more too I guess.
What more you ask? Hell if I know. I barely know myself. Lately I been kinda...
All you ladies out there!
OK, ignore the title, that’s for attention. Although seriously, if you are reading this, and are a woman, can you do me a favour please?
This sounds stupid but it really is serious. I’m doing a drawing ath the moment but I can’t get it finished because it’s at a funny angle and I can’t workout where the feet should go. It’s such a random thing, but honestly I...
Heavy Metal: A New Religion?
saladfork:
The Guardian reports:
“Metal Hammer has launched a campaign – well, it’s sent out a press release, anyway – to recognise heavy metal as a religion in the 2011 UK census.”
Wow. I wish.
Incidentally, most of my posts lately have been reblogs so… yeah. Ask me stuff, that’ll make for a change.

Choke on THAT causality!
So I just finished reading Fight Club.
Unfortunately I can’t talk about it.
I will say however that I bought it in Queens bookshop, and I hope to God I don’t have to study it someday. I love it, but to analyse even one chapter would take longer than some whole books would take…
It’s excellent.
mrmorningswim-deactivated201004 asked: Trying to get this answered, because you know, I seem to find it to be an interesting question. Hope you're well Greggy poos. If you could organise a party with no limitations and you were in complete control, what would you do, where etc?
So THAT's how it began...
Ian: So you're telling me if I open this door we'll be in a desert?
The Doctor: Yes absolutely.
Ian: Oh, Doctor Foreman please, that doesn't make any sense!
The Doctor: Eh? Doctor Who? What are you talking about?
---------
It's clear my current obsession with Doctor Who is going too far. But I did always wonder when was the first time they worked out he doesn't have a surname...
It's a wile bahd night;
And y’all know how to make it pass quicker.

And no idea what to buy… any suggestions?

iliketowritewords asked: Right here is your killer question that isn't that great:
Imagine that you could take over any comic company in the world for a day, and then edit a particular comic book (such as taking over marvel and making spiderman into a flying monkey or something) which company/comic would it be, what would you do and why?
I'm not sure if that made sense.

While burning rubbish on a bonfire today...
Mum: Greg, did you check what was in that box before putting it on there?
Me: No, why?
Mum: GREG! *Runs*
Me: Why? What's happening?
Mum: That's the box Dad keeps his shotgun shells in!
---
A few death-free minutes later, we concluded that the box did not in fact contain shotgun shells. The next one however, did. Close call.
It's a boy!
After many months of speculation (and fear on my part that it’d be born on my birthday) Cousin Jeff’s had his second baby! (Well obviously he hasn’t, that’d be questionable at best- Hazel has had her second baby) The birth took less than an hour, which is apparently really strange, and Hazel should be out by tomorrow, so that’s really nice too.
His name is Charlie....
mrmorningswim-deactivated201004 asked: Will you make a whole-hearted effort to get a graphic/manga novel published? Because I will make a note of buying it. Any good ideas brewin'?
Happy Birthday to me
I know it’s an annoyingly obvious self-conscious post title, but it’s true.
It’s been a really good birthday, even if it was mostly sleep and indian food. Quiet but lovely, I’m glad I don’t go clubbing.
Also Metallica tickets are made of win.

16/1/91
This was a very special day for all sorts of reasons. Historically, it marked the start of the first gulf war, culturally, 38 years after the birth of James May-
But locally, it was my birthday.
Also a pretty cool thing is if you turn it 180 degrees it says the same thing. Wonder if there’s a name for that?

Here's what I learned today:
If you dad wakes you up at 8.30 to do hard labour, for love of God, say no.
I thought I was gonna black out. Musta been a result of deep sleep to hard work within 10 minutes (literally, I got dressed and got working, no food or washing). Not healthy…
http://hero-inpace.tumblr.com/ask just a reminder that I’ve been reduced to watching classic Doctor Who. First and second Doctors are...
Haiti
I woke up this morning and was determined to post something completely different, but this news put it out of my head completely.
I know I’m posting too late really, but I really couldn’t think what to say. Still can’t in fact.
God help them quite frankly, this is easily one of the worst natural disasters in decades, maybe centuries- certainly centuries in Haiti. They’ve...

woo-hoo! →
This is to subtly point out that i can be asked questions too. Also that i love arrested development to bits.
Mum: So, what do you think?
Granda: Think of what?
Mum: You know (Indictaing Dad's lack of a moustache)
Granda: ... did you get a haircut?
Mum: No! About Arthur.
Granda: Oh. (Thinks) Did he get a haircut?
Mum: No! He shaved off his moustache!
Granda: What?
Mum: Did you not notice?
Granda: Well, I kept thinking there was something and just couldn't put my finger on it...
Mum: You were chatting for over an hour!
Granda: Yeah, and I was thinking the whole time something was different....
------
Apparently as they drove away Granda had his face pressed against the window to try and see Dad. This is still big news in the family.
BIGGEST PLOT TWIST IN OUR FAMILY EVER! (So far)
So I awake this morning at around mid-afternoon, so really I guess I awoke sometime mid-afternoon- as you do if you’re a student. Anyway, having had a rather bizarre dream involving a “Boot-fest” (whatever that is), I was disoriented and headed downstairs to have some of the great wake-up cure that is pure orange Juice.
And Lo, to my horror, as I walk into the kitchen sits a MAN...
Curse you epiphany!
Always comes at 3am and lasts at least 45 damned minutes.
On the upside I do now know what short comic to do for the 2D festival. What fun.
So that brings my to-do list to:
Do a decent comic strip for once
Get job
Get theory test
Get driving test
Get Girlfriend
Learn guitar
Pass first year
Read Hitchhiker’s guide to the Galaxy
Remember to let the dog back in
Oh. that last one...
halfwayhome asked: How is the guitar going? Also the driving? And the driving whilst playing guitar?
Anonymous asked: Why do you always enter a room and say 'hi y'all' and exit a room saying 'bye y'all.'? Is it just habit or do you really want to great every person in the room? I've always wanted to know.
