Becase we all need some anarchy in our lives.

Hello I was going to post the very excellent future comic Spider-man 2099 but because it's written by a certain author who I still love despite the fallout of the last community, I decided to post this Grant Morrison classic Kill your Boyfriend.

First Let's meet our Narrator

Quite the meek thing wouldn't you say?



After having a tiff with her Parents she decides to go out one night when she run's into the local bad boy.




After boozing around for a while they decide to go to her boyfriend's house.





And that is the beginning of an delightful adventure where our two protagonist find love, understanding, and acceptance. Also if you tell I'm lying through my teeth before this sentence you win a cookie. This is a great Graphic novel that is very funny, that, while you can find some symbolism in it you can turn your mind off and read just because it's just so fun. The graphic novel is out there somewhere and it only cost 5 bucks so go get it if you want to find out what happens next.

ALL teens feel that way. You may want to shake them, but they do.

[greenmask.insanejournal.com]

No, they don't. They may look like they do (in which case I guess that's part of the joke?), but they don't.

No stealing thunder! Especially when your thunder makes more sense than my poor nightshift brain can produce!

[greenmask.insanejournal.com]

We can tag-team on this thunder!

[xandertarbert.insanejournal.com]

Thunder Tag powers activate! Form of... comic book satire!

I.. I think you just won all the internets ever.

[xandertarbert.insanejournal.com]

I'm going to make the internets into various crowns and pass them out then. Because a man makes his own destiny! He picks up the world, and he tries to get the five-fingered discount with it! Punching sharks, swearing blood oaths, drinking things that grow chest hair! To take the spear of destiny and ram it up Fate's backside! Smash through reason with a headbutt!

...I need to stop reading Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann without sleep. Still, you get the crown of making-day!

Man, should have hung with us in school. We had D&D. We had video games. We even had sleepovers! While we did have bouts of "Oh God, life sucks," we never felt really trapped by each other. Or really wanted to kill our partners. Mebbe put a headlock on a buddy, but not so much get wasted, kick cars, and kill boyfriends. I was a freshman when Colimbine happened, and all of us nerds and outcasts were like, "Dude, WTF?"

[jlroberson.insanejournal.com]

Well, would have loved to but I graduated in 1987. It was a different time. When HEATHERS was a far-fetched comedy.

As far as the D&D...uhh, well...I don't judge</i those that like it, but...;)

[xandertarbert.insanejournal.com]

D&D is great escapism, when you can get a crew that isn't so much, "I'm going to the bar! Are there any girls there?!" and more, "So, what are we going to do with the orc children that are trying to kill us?"

Also, you graduated a year after I was born. Feel old! Do it!

[jlroberson.insanejournal.com]

Well, for those who like that sort of thing...that is the sort of thing they like. The only time I was into D&D was about 6 months when I was 12 and was tired of Pac-Man. But mostly I was interested in painting the little lead figures more than playing the game. Though the manuals did lead me into reading mythology and Lovecraft.

>>Feel old! Do it!

No really? I'm OLD? OH GOD! NO! GUN IN MOUTH WILL HIDE THE WRINKLES!--

[xandertarbert.insanejournal.com]

I dunno, I just feel like I should crawl in the story somehow, kick around the bad boy, make the two kids have sex and explain what you can do in life. And how to understand and explain alt-Pratchett.

I was just as bad with Neon Genesis Evangelion. Get Shinji to man up, explain emotions to Rei, and get Asuka some prozac. Or laid by Shinji.

Hahaha if we watched movies together the walls would ring with the sound of our righteous protests. GOSH characters in stuff are so STUPID! XD

[xandertarbert.insanejournal.com]

"GAH! Tenchi, pick one! Or all of them!"

I remember someone saying, "If anyone needs a swift kick in the nuts, it's Peter Parker," and thinking it sounded about right. Spidey's my favorite, but he's been conditioned to act that way. Everytime he doesn't, a writer has it back fire in his face.

Which is why I always liked Xander Harris so much in the first half of Buffy. We was esentailly the kicking-ass-into-gear character.

High school was no picnic but I met some crazies there, I mean sure I'd want to blow something up as well but Grand Theft Auto helped with that and well according to my parents who lived in small towns the only real thing you could do was drive, my mom made comparisons to American Graffiti. The characters in this story seem like something teens would want to be, no one holding you back, freedom on the road, you can do anything and go anywhere. Essentially they just don't want to grow up, Alan Moore mentions that some of this was based on a kid's show.

they are aren't, they? Writers want drama so they give us brain melting stupidity.
