The following have made me laugh in recent days:

This page from the webcomic Friendly Hostility. Specifically panels 2 and 3. "Sweet Neietzche, what the hell?!" I DIE.

Maura-san's livejournal. She regularly astounds me with her laconic and utterly original wit. Usually I'm left blinking in bemused, amused astonishment.

This page from the webcomic Gunnerkrigg Court. Specifically the last panel. One finds such interesting things by reading Neil Gaiman's livejournal, really.

Skippy's List. A thing of beauty is a joy forever.

Calvin & Hobbes. It doesn't matter that I've read every single strip at least ten times. They're still funny.

This page from the webcomic Questionable Content. Actually QC makes me laugh on a regular basis. The punchlines tend towards awesome. They're killer, really. It hits all the bases; it even has robots! With existential crisises! This strip, though, is my all time favorite. It is made of SOLID GOLD PLUTONIUM SLEDGEHAMMERS NAMED SVEN. That's how hard it kicks your ass.

Kanshou and Bakuya in the Demon Hunter AU, as per my icon. It's [livejournal.com profile] majochan's fault, really, since it was her idea to have the swords literally talk in the first place. Now they won't shut up. Why is it that when I write inanimate objects or pets they always end up having as much or more personality than their supposed owners do?

This is possibly the sweetest poem ever:

roses are #FF0000
violets are #0000FF
all my base
are belong to you

Where do I find these things, anyway?

Maura-san's journal is indeed full of awesome. She makes me giggle on a regular basis ;)
Wheeeeeeeee-eeeee!

I just hung out with Emms, and she mentioned to me that you're planning on going on the trans-Siberian railroad next year? That is insanely cool! I want to come with!

It's my dream of taking what I call "the long way home," aye. Currently somewhat complicated by the fact that my friend is getting married at that time, and so it now also involves multiple plane flights across Eurasia. Nevertheless, I am determined to take the Trans-Siberian across Russia, stopping in a bunch of places along the way, and finishing off the trip with a couple of days in St. Petersburg. After that I might hop over and join my mother in Venice if it can be arranged, or head elsewhere in Europe, or just head home, I'm not sure yet. Companionship would indeed be welcome if you cared to join. :-)

I <3 that poem too.

I thought of you the other day, incidentally.

How are you doin'?

Oh also QC rocks my socks.

Have you gotten to the part about the lions yet?

lions? ::blink:: I've read the entire archives, and I read QC every day, but I don't recall anything about lions . . .

I'm well. ::nodnod:: Hungry, at the moment, but that's hardly a surprise. Happy to be thought of? :-) How are you?
