See title. So I realized today is April 1st, you know what that means! I fairly recently discovered I can do a fairly convincing Mickey Mouse impression, I want to put it to use somehow, and I figured today would be a great day to try some prank phone calls. So anybody have any great ideas I can try? Bonus points if the idea includes dropping names of other Disney characters. Some ideas I have in mind so far include calling people at random saying they won a trip to Disneyland/World. Then another idea includes calling a tow truck and/or auto repair shop and having a wild story about how "...Goofy wrecked Donald's car, and now he is PISSED..." But if any of you have an even better idea, i'd love to hear it, and keep it clean and in good fun. I don't want Disney suing me for something like Mickey dropping an F bomb. I also plan to record it and stick it up on YT, i'll post the verdict in this thread. Even if it doesn't happen today, I WILL still do this regardless.

...this isn't something recent, but rather something i've been wanting to do ever since I realized its possible to make music using audio clips from TV shows or taking already existing songs and giving them a new spin. How long, you ask? I've always been inspired by artists like Enigma and Deep Forest. But back when I was a kid, during the days of Napster, I downloaded some Sailor Moon songs only to quickly realize they where something some average joe fan made at home. This meant *I* could do it myself, and ever since then, I've always been wanting to try it. These days, I've been wanting to do it more than ever, especially since technology has come such a long way and is much more commonplace compared to 10+ years ago. Currently, my main computer (its an older Mac) is busted and won't be fixed until I manage to get a job and have a steady source of income coming in (whenever THAT will be), but I figured in the meantime I can gather info/read up on it. Question time! -What are some great programs for beginners like me? What is their price tag? Is their any additional equipment I might need? -Is there any tutorials I can watch/read? (This should also help me determine if this endeavor is worth my time/would truly be interested in or not.) -What about Garage Band? I tinkered around with it a few times, but is it secretly some awesome remixing program with some cool hidden features I overlooked? ...thats a start, but yeah, any help would be appreciated. I've had ideas accumulating in the back of my mind for years that I want to get out. One idea from this past year combines the Twilight Zone theme, "Fly me to the Moon" from Evangelion, the Doctor Who theme, a couple tracks from Star Wars, and other iconic tracks from famous sci-fi films/shows. It sounds bizarre now, but man, if only I could get it together... TL;DR I'm a total noob, who has zero experience with making music remixes, really wants to start, but has no idea how. Where do I begin?

I can live with people misspelling my name, because at least those people actually remember my real name. What irks me more is when people call me everything but my actual name. My name is Katrina but for some reason everyone keeps calling me "Katie" "Kathy" "Katelyn" "Kathrine" etc. It drives me nuts! So yeah, I'll take "Catrina" any day, because at least it *sounds* correct.

I loved Angel Beats as well, and I friggin love the soundtrack! I like to turn up the volume when I have Girl's Dead Monster on and have my car windows rolled down. I think the reason why people "hate" it so much was the fact that it just ended so abruptly, I know I myself hated that. There was just so much potential story left, but sadly due to the lack of funding they had to cut it short. Such a shame really. I'd love to see KyoAni redo it and expand on the story, like what they did with Air, Kanon, and Clannad (which where all done by the same writer as AB).

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Some people always seem to bash it, that hate was even worse before it even aired, and erupted into a heated argument between anime-only viewers and the manga readers ("The anime was perfect! Why another?!" "Shut up and just watch, it will be completely new and GOOD! Its based on the REAL story from the manga." ) As a fan of the manga, this saddens me greatly, that some people refuse to even try it, or unfairly diss it thinking its a copy of the first anime. Brotherhood stays much closer to the original story than the first anime, which dare I say, is better in so many ways! Yes, the first anime had its strong points, but also alot of "Wtf am I watching?!" moments as well. On the plus side, those who have watched both have now erupted into a new argument: which anime was better? I like Fairy Tail, and I greatly enjoy reading the manga, but I don't LOVE it, and I can understand people's criticisms. I absolutely adore One Piece. It has such an elaborate story that intertwines and connects. Beneath every story arc you can sense theres multiple ones brewing beneath it, which you can tell its creator has something very epic already planned for the ending of the series. Fairy Tail? It looks like One Piece, but it just doesn't feel like One Piece. Where One Piece you get the sense that Oda knows what he wants to do and where he wants to go with it, Mashima just seems to be making stuff up as he goes along. Like Fairy Tail, with Bleach, I enjoy it, but I don't LOVE it, and can understand people's criticisms as well. At one point, I did love Bleach...until it got past the Soul Society story line. I still love Kubo's art style, its almost...poetic...the way he lays out his panels, and manages to come up with some really fun, creative ideas (as proven in his other work, Zombie Powder), but the man does NOT know how to write a coherent story. I stopped watching the anime just before I started the 2nd filler story arc (ep 167-ish?), and stuck with the manga as I felt it cut the crap and moved at a faster pace (which it did). But even he manga has been dragging its heels, keeping it going for as long as possible.

Vanilla Coke...on ice. Best. Drink. Ever! Then runner up is Sunkist orange soda, and when the mood strikes, then I love to mix it with Absolut brand vanilla flavored vodka.

(No idea if I posted in this thread or not, but doing it anyways.) I prefer to refer to myself as "not straight", "bi" when people prefer I must have some kind of label they can understand. "Not straight" as its much easier to say than "someone who knows for sure she is not straight but is unsure is she is bi or a lesbian as she has never had a relationship with another girl and really wants to, but she lives in a rural area where its rather difficult to seek out a homosexual relationship with anyone and is also hesitant to seek out a relationship period with any girl after falling for a straight girl, which for the first time in her life she ever felt so crazy in love over someone before, and was falsely lead on thinking that she was willing to try a homosexual relationship, only to have her heart shattered as she fell for a guy, completely oblivious to her feelings, thus experiencing the most painful feeling she had ever felt in her whole life, then to add to confusion has finally, after all these years, have suddenly been finding some guys kinda attractive after so many years of finding them NOT attractive, they have all been bronies, which could be that the reason why she never found them attractive is because she never found the right guys until now, but she still refuses to persuade a relationship with another guy until she tries to have a relationship with another girl, as after so many years of being in the closet driven to madness of finding girls attractive, then to go throughout the rest of her life without even trying it would drive her insane even more...." ...perhaps I should go with "unsure" instead.

I mostly prefer manga. With manga I feel it's MUCH easier to figure out the starting point of a series, vs American comics wheres theres decades upon decades of continuity. So it feels very intimidating for a new reader. Plus I find manga has a very nice...flow to it, and i like the wide variety of genres. As most American comics (the more commonly available ones anyways) are all about superheroes, it gets old really. *sees most of the comments of what manga series people have read being mostly Naruto and Bleach* Seriously? When theres hundreds of other titles out there? This saddens me greatly. Actually, they both developed separately if I recall correctly, but at one point some American comic artists where influenced by Japanese ones. But yes, manga IS pretty old.

Harde's maybe? They are technically Carl's Jr with a different name afteral. (Carl's Jr is fairly common out here in AZ). I understand your delima though. A place you like to eat it doing things that you are so strongly against, and at the same you you would like to support those who are caught in the crossfire who only want a paycheck to support their own family. I say its up to you really. But for me its an easy choice, as the only Chick-fil-a's around me are in the major cities far away and I'd much rather spend my money at fast food places that are closer to home. ...and a brohoof for you being bi as well buddy. /) Huh, I didn't realize such a small percentage goes back to the main company. Learn something new everyday.

I have never eaten there, but due to the whole controversy I never will now. As someone who is bi who took forever to find the courage to come out of the closet, I refuse to support a company with such a strong, hateful, old-fashioned mind-set that could spend the money I gave them to spread such hate. Such a mind-set belongs back in the segregation era, not in 2013. And if you really want waffle fires, Carl's Jr has them.

That used to happen to me alot when I was younger and watched more TV, but these days its been with music. Example. Just the other day I had "Hungry like a Wolf" by Duran Duran randomly play in my head for the longest time. Later that day I had the radio on.... and "Hungry like a Wolf" plays.

I'm loving your art style! Could you do my OC? I don't have a pic handy, but heres a description: Her name is Blue Marigold, shes a pegasus with a blue/orange color scheme (light blue body, dark blue mane with orange highlights*), and her cutie mark is a pair of marigolds. She has a friendly, cheerful personality. Her mane style your welcome to have fun with, maybe some fun, girly, anime-like hair-style? But as stated, I'll let you have fun with it (but no mohawks please, lol). *I know your images are in B&W but I figured i'd include it if you decided to shade it.

Good lord kid. You do not need 3 threads asking the same thing. You can't always expect someone to magically appear in less than 24 hours willing to help you out with your writing project. I know your eager to get going but you need to be patient. I'm looking for an artist for a webcomic I want to do, but I know it might take time to find someone. In the meantime you can always start planning out ideas. Write out detailed profiles for any original characters, and summaries for some storylines. That way when someone does come along and they want to help you out, you have your ideas all laid out and ready to share.

Could you draw my OC? Her name is Blue Marigold, shes a Pegasus with a blue/orange color scheme (light blue for the main body, a darker blue with orange highlights for the mane). Her cutie mark is a pair of marigolds. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, and the mane style you're welcome to have fun with (just no mohawks please. lol!) Oh! And simple style please, thanks.

Well, I did mention I am looking for "someone to help draw it". As for the writing aspect of this, I'm pretty confident I have a good handle on it, I thank you for your kind offer though. However, I have some fanfics lined up I would love to get a 2nd opinion on, especially critiques on what I can improve. One of which is a crossover I already started that I plan to do some major rewriting. Perhaps you can assist me with that? I

North Korea fascinates me. I found myself watching a bunch of videos on YT of people's accounts about what they witnessed/people's lives there at some point last year. The whole idea of a nation, with crazed leaders, completely cut off from our 21st century world, still stuck in the 20th, just intrigues me. Its the short of thing that belongs in some novel like 1984. Its even inspired a book of my own I'd like to someday write.
