It's another about my sleep-talking. There are a few others and will be more.

WHO FUCKING LOVES YOU?!

HINT: Me and [livejournal.com profile] fairyarmadillo

Sleep-talking benjamin Lies and Truths

These two awesome people were at Boltini Lounge in Champaign, Illinois, on October 29, 2011, for the Halloween Party.

If you recognize the people behind the characters, I'd love to give them Proper Mad Props. I hope somebody knows who they are.

PS - "Ollie and Dinah" is not an acceptable answer. :P

Awesome Green Arrow and Black Canary costumes / cosplay at Boltini Halloween 2011

Yeah, what my lady [livejournal.com profile] fairyarmadillo said:

"It seems like nobody's really into Halloween this year.  [info]benchilada and I have been working hard on our costumes but opportunities to show them off and hang out with fantastic type people are few and far between. This Halloween malaise isn't just in central Illinois, none of my California peoples seem to be doing much either. Is it because Halloween's on a Monday? That's where my blame has been firmly placed because the thought that my friends just aren't into Halloween any more is too terrible to consider.

What are you fine folks doing/being? My costume is still a slight surprise so you'll have to wait till after Saturday for pictures.
"

Here's a teaser of our costumes:

Found something "interesting" in a book on Scientology/Dianetics by L.
Ron Hubbard. Below is a page from the 1982 edition of "The Science of
Survival" in which he describes his view on the role of women in
society.

What kind of people do you take us for?!

Of course we decorate for Halloween - front table

Of course we decorate for Halloween - by the window

My life with [livejournal.com profile] fairyarmadillo is so awesome.

It's in Ye Olde Schoole format, just me drawing random things. I had suggestion advice from the ever-lovely [livejournal.com profile] fairyarmadillo, and I'm very proud of our results.

Things I Can't Draw - The Robot Assistance Edition



Can't find another telephone, but I have had another rocket animal:

Enjoy your day, kids.

OI! NEW YORK PEEPS! Help us out a bit.

My Robot is, for her job, "looking for a space around the Washington Square/NYU area to hold an information session, Oct 27th in the evening (6ish?), space for 30 to 40, needs to have a projector and screen for a Power Point." They'll be providing foodstuffs.

GO! SPREAD YOUR TENDRILS!
...as this video I shot demonstrates.

If you somehow slept through that part of the internet, The Onion A.V. Club interviewed They Might Be Giants and included their standard demand that guest acts perform a song from a list provided for them.

The result is here and fucking awesome. Read the bit below the video before watching it.

So, what did John, John, Dan, Dan, and Marty do as an appropriate response?

On Friday, in Chicago, they brought the whole A.V. Club onstage as a guitar army to play a different song, before swinging into the one they originally covered.

Fucking sweet.


Sorry I've been a bit distant again. Life is...hectic, but awesome.

I still love all most of you, though.

Hope you're having a great day.

Hello, LJ! To get away from the bitching on FB (and because I still have little use for G+), I'll possibly be dropping in here more often.

Now entertain me. And each other.

PHOTO CHALLENGE:

Strangest/most-interesting thing
near you right now, or when you are near
a camera and can upload something.


Life and Assassination of James Fisk Jr

RIGHT IN THE ASS, TOO!!!

Rich, rare, and racy letters? Sound like James Joyce's personal life, AMIRITE?!

GEEK GARAGE SALE! RIGHT NOW! THIS WAS TWELVE DOLLARS, TOTAL:

408 W. HEALEY, CHAMPAIGN, ILLINOIS.

There were lots more toys, lots more graphic novels, we didn't even
look at the regular books or DVDs. GET OVER THERE! WE TOLD THEM WE WOULD SEND YOU!!!

I don't have coprolalia like some people with Tourette's do, but--as with most people with TS--my brain DOES love to swear. Sometimes my unbidden use of these words is very interesting.

Nadja and I were talking about a VERY noisy garbage truck that went through our alley at Stupid O'Clock a.m. The quote above the illustration is how my brain decided to describe this garbage truck. And now I have drawn it for you:


"Louder than a mountain of dicks"


Living with me sure must be a treat, Nadja. At least my disorders are worth an occasional laugh. :)

The best way to serve me would be to BACK AWAY SLOWLY.


The last of the bootlegs I brought home from China. This is a knockoff of an actual Takara toy, a cross-sponsorship with Nike to make Optimus Prime and Megatron into shoes. T

Click the pic to view the whole set, with the toy in both shoe and robot form.



I think we've always had that, but thanks for keeping an eye out for us....

Love,

benjamin

Nadja's pics of this event probably turned out better than mine. :)
