So, I just put up the play I wrote. The Winds of Time Wound All. As I recall, I wrote this while Kiiip was studying one time just as a thing to do to kill time. Then gave it to him, only to find it had been put up on Contains2 without me even knowing. That’s how I accidentally became a playwright. And now I’ve brought it back to life here. Shakespeare is quaking in his fluffy hot pink boots now because he knows I’ll be stealing his thunder.
It would be awesome to see this play actually performed just because the bulk of it would be the character Bill awkwardly waiting for five minutes to get hit by a train. I doubt any other play has ever done that.
Haiku!
Don’t expect no wounds
’cause the winds of time wound all.
And that includes you.
Why is it spelled “playwright?” Shouldn’t it be “playwrite” if not “playwriter” or even more logically “play writer”? Language, man. It’s weird.
– A play by Patrick D Ryall. [ Scene: Bill and Joe walk on to the subway train. ] Bill: My name is Bill. Joe: Your name is Bill. Bill: Take that back! Joe: No. You’ll have to kill me! Bill: Fine then. I’ll kill myself. Joe: No! I’m sorry. I take it back! Bill: […]

Then we have Pete and Jeremy as they make big plans for the weekend:
And as an added bonus, I was organizing my filing cabinet this weekend and I stumbled upon an old Little Choy that I had made but had not been scanned. This means I get an extra comic up this week without having to do any extra work! Hooray!
Here’s something PDR did a little work on:

For years now I’ve done the bulk of my watching television at the Comedy Network website. Home to the Daily Show and Colbert (because in Canada we’re not allowed to watch those shows on their actual websites). For years the Comedy Network website has been pretty crappy.
The video system had always been sub-YouTube in quality. I spent as much time with buffering and waiting for the clips to load as I actually did watching. Even if I were to pause the clip and walk away from the computer for a while it would only load up a minute ahead of where I was paused and just stop. If I let it load for an hour while I did other things, I’d would come back to a minute’s worth of a clip and then more waiting. And at least twice a day the clips would just give up and kick me out of the video thing and would not only stop loading the clip, it would also lose the place where it was. Combine this with the problems my computer has anyway, it made watching my stories unnecessarily large.
Well today I woke up to find a new type of clip viewer on the site. And today, no long waits and stuff. I guess I have to thank the Comedy Network. If you’re going to force me to watch the shows on your site instead of those of the actual people whose shows I want to see, I’m glad you seem to actually be making it easier for me.
