@$$hole! #73: Cynthia -:- Monday, November 03, 2008


My Site and Drunk Duck

I'm a little nervous about putting this page up, only because Laura hasn't been talking to me for a few months now, and may not think that it's a joke if she reads it. The intention isn't to insult or pour salt on any wounds...it's just to be silly and funny.

But yes, she's been dating someone else for a while now (which isn't important - what's important is that she's happy)...and yes, I did name my new TV Cynthia. To be fair, I made the purchase before I was downsized (but had to pay for it after the fact, which sucked). The TV is absolutely awesome! 42" LCD 120hz, and it's an LG brand (which is Korean). It was the price that I wanted and the hook ups that I wanted, but a little sooner than I had anticipated buying it.

I figured it would be funny to compare a piece of technology to a girlfriend, because the truth is that when you're single all you really have is your stuff (and friends, naturally). However, stuff doesn't ever really bring you happiness - so to imply otherwise makes a silly joke.

So I started thinking about things that you would do with a girlfriend, and how silly it could be to do those things with a TV. Like go on vacations! I wanted to include other things, and possibly do some more awful photoshop jobs (done awful on purpose), but I thought it took away from the joke. For example, I was going to put sunglasses on me and the TV on the beach shot - very obvious that we weren't wearing those when the photo was taken. I was going to include a goth club scene or something, and put a ball-gag over the TV. Little things like that.

Perhaps another time....

The next update will be the last photo update for a while, and will kind of explain the differences between photo Trevor and illustrated Trevor - which will hopefully make for a good segue back into the illustrated pages.

Happy Halloween, everyone!
