ROM Comic Announcements

Re: ROM Comic Announcements
Sorry, sorry! I was at my school's anime club, which I regularily attend, last night. I had my laptop with me, which was plugged into a power strip attached to a wall socket, so that I could set up and then upload today's Pebble Version update, since the site is too old to have all that fancy php code that can do it automatically. During the middle portion of the club, we ended up watching the last several episodes of Higashi no Eden, a very interesting and unique anime that I unfortunately can't describe in further depth without spoiling the plot. The point of this being that I was so wrapt up in what we were watching that I was distracted from my work and forgot to update ROM as a result. I will now begin the process of adding the new ROM comic and rant to the site and then moving my mouse and clicking on the upload button so it will go online for all to see.

Sounds fantastic! Send me an email sometime towards the end of the month to work out the specifics, and it'll be fun!shauni wrote:
How about a few story comics? I can owe you a few and we can do what we did last time, if that’s okay?

Rant Title: Make like a tree and leave.
Azalea’s little comment here refers to the old pun “Make like a tree and leave” http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.p ... nd%20leave , obviously the actual tree lady has never heard it before.
The name Azalea was chosen due to the plant http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azalea like most Dryad names are. I chose the name because all parts of the plant are poisonous and cause nausea, vomiting, depression and breathing difficulties, but it is rarely fatal. This reminded me of her personality 100% She is a…shall we say, not a very nice person. There is a word for her that I’m thinking of, but it isn’t very polite.
The next comic will be Monday, not Wednesday, so keep watching!

Re: ROM Comic Announcements
NG would very much like to point out that alot of the speech bubbles do not specify the exact person that is saying the specific thing and it confused him for quite some time until he was able to figure out who was saying what... not that you should care about that or anything.

Re: ROM Comic Announcements
I do care what readers think, and unfortunatly there isn't much I can do about the speach bubbles now, there was too much text to fit in and I hadn't drawn a big enough image, I'll try and keep this in mind for next week.

Rant Title: Tell a tree joke
You know, there aren’t many jokes about trees that aren’t beyond stupid. This was the website http://www.regina.ca/Page1699.aspx I got the below joke from.
Riddle: Which tree is always scared?
Answer: A trembling aspen
I wanted a joke that would be a common phrase among tree people, but at the same time would be something stupid to say to a pregnant Dryad turning into a tree.
I had never actual heard of a trembling aspen, but apparently it is a common name used for a tree called “Populus tremuloides” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Populus_tremuloides which is a deciduous tree native to cooler areas of North America. The species is referred to as “Quaking Aspen”, “Trembling Aspen”, and “Quakies”. The names deriving from its leaves which flutter in the breeze. To my American readers, this joke is for you, because even I didn’t get it!
See you all next week! There will be a comic on Monday, but no comic Friday, being it is Christmas day! Updates will be a bit of hit and miss until New Year. I’ll try to get a few up in between then and New Year, but the holiday is always busy for me!

Re: ROM Comic Announcements
Don't worry, you aren't the only one who didn't get it. I've actually never heard of (or can't remember (but that's too common with me)) "trembling aspen." It fits well nonetheless. Plus I never paid attention when we were naming trees in cub scouts.
Anyways. When you say, "being it is Christmas day," it sounds a little awkward to me. "Seeing as it is Christmas day," or even just "as it is Christmas day" sounds better to me. I dunno, using "being" and "it" together as such just sounded redundant, sorry.

Rant Title: Dryad Terminology
Right gang! Let’s get our English to Dryad dictionary out!
“Silver Wood”: The female Dryad of Royal families turn an almost Silver colour when they turn into tree. It signifies them as important members of a group of pregnant women within a forest. The term was taken from the silverback gorilla. A silverback is an adult male gorilla, typically more than 12 years of age and named for the distinctive patch of silver hair on his back. A silverback gorilla has large canine teeth that come with maturity. Silverbacks are usually dominating males within a gorilla group.
Drift Wood: Dryad women that are not from any given family group. They move from location to location with the seasons. Driftwood is wood that has been washed onto a shore or beach of a sea or river by the action of winds, tides, waves or man. It is a form of marine debris.
Brass Wood: An unflattering nickname for Upper-class Dryad. Taken from the term “top brass”. It is an informal name for the most important or high-ranking officials or leaders in any given industry.
Barking: The process in which a Dryad’s skin hardens during the last stages of pregnancy to protect the mother.
Rooting: The process in which a Drays roots to the ground and takes in there needed substances from the ground in the last stages of pregnancy.
Well, with all that out of the way, it’s time to remind you there is no comic Friday, seeing as it is Christmas day!
If I don’t see you before New Year…
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Regards
Shauni!
