I didn't post yesterday. Why?
BECAUSE MY FAVORITE COMIC ENDED TODAY.
I've been reading a webcomic called Homestuck for nearly five years now, which seems like nothing compared to its seven year life span. For those of you who don't know, Homestuck is a web-based story about four kids who play a computer game that unknowingly triggers the end of the world. The storyline is unbelievably intricate and undoubtedly witty and intelligent. Today, the comic turned seven years old and a final flash animation was posted to complete its reign.
I was so pumped for the ending. SO PUMPED. Like, Christmas morning pumped.
The flash animation was absolutely gorgeous. I could watch the video a thousand times over. After the nine-minute long video, I was ready for long, witty dialogue and a bow on top to finish off one of the most beautifully written pieces of literature I've ever read.
I clicked the ===> button, heart still races and emotions still ebbing, my adrenaline shot through my body in preparation for the finale.
THE END. ALL THERE WAS WAS THE END. NOTHING.
Do you know how many character interactions we still needed? What about Dave and John, sitting down and talking through their emotions? Dirk and Jake still needed to discuss their feelings for eachother, and how they could have re-developed a healthier, happier relationship. What about Vriska? Is she dead? Doesn't she need to reunite with Terezi? What about Jane? She needs a HUG FROM HER FATHER. And Dadbert needs to adopt all the kids because EVERYONE ELSE IS DEAD.
I could go on, but I shouldn't because then I wouldn't stop.
Anyway, Mister is still lame. That's about it.
Cheers?
