Housepets!

"Look deep into my eyes..."

A couple videos for Halloween.

First, a clever commercial.

Second, from John Carpenter himself, a gritty remake of a well-loved series.*

*I think the dialogue in this one is composed entirely of quotes from said series, but I could be wrong. >_>

Actually, I know a ton about that movie. First, it isn't a remake, it's a prequel to the John Carpenter film, revealing what happened at the Norwegian base. Yes, I know, it's really kinda dumb that they're calling the prequel the same thing as the movie it's a prequel to, but whatever. According to...

He is?

Not even a passing mention of John Carpenter's The Thing ? PHILISTINES! Also, 1. I return! 2. I'm trying a new avatar. :I John Carpenter's The Thing ? I'm sorry, I thought a masterpiece like that went without saying. :P I mean honestly, that movie is a gem. Great pacing, great atmosphere, great mus...

Also,
1. I return!
2. I'm trying a new avatar. :I

...so Tarot is a walking catfight? ._.

So beautiful! *sniff* ;.;

And in case noone's linked it yet, Katan! =D

EDIT: Ach! Looked through the archives, and it turns out someone had already posted Katan. Oh well. :/

I can't believe Girl Genius and Gunnerkrigg Court haven't been mentioned yet! D: They're easily among the best webcomics I read (apart from Housepets, of course ^_^;; )! They both update M-W-F, too! :) Other webcomics I like that haven't been mentioned are: Dissonance The author/artist plans to brin...

For some reason I've long imagined Max to be a Rush fan. In particular, songs like these come to mind:

Rush - 2112 / Overture - The Temples Of Syrinx
Rush- Caravan w/ lyrics

Go figure. :/

EDIT: Oh, and Rufus would probably enjoy this.

Black Water - Doobie Brothers (with lyrics)

I read this strip first thing in the morning and didn't "get it" till 3:29 this evening. I'm so ashamed... ;_;

What am I afraid of? The first thing that comes to mind is vomiting. I hate, hate , hate throwing up. >_< I'm tempted to say I'd rather deal with a flu for a week than vomit just once--and whenever I do start to vomit I fight as hard as I can to keep it down. I know I shouldn't, I know it never work...

hey, *I* said that for the first time, long ago

Oh. Whoops! <_<

I s'pose I should read through the archives some before I post. ^_^;;

Joy: I'm beginning to post more in the forum. Go me. :3

If this strip and its alt-text are any indication, Joey might serve as a sort of stand-in for Rick. On occasion, anyway. >_>

Darnit, I missed all the South-talk! ;_;

Oh well.

I usually go to bed sometime in the early morning (i.e., between 1 AM and 5 AM) because I'm as irresponsible now as I was in highschool. DERP :I

Do you suppose King could convince him to believe by recalling bits of the conversations they had in Joel's car? It would be hard to get that detailed knowledge from an outside source, I imagine.

Seconded! =3

It never occurred to me that they were just deep-fried bread, though. ;;>_>

I note Cerberus's letting her emotions get the best of her: Focusing on Pete instead of the stolen orb. Hope she doesn't get demoted for that. You think she hates Pete now...

Bringing theology into an already brilliant comic? You, sire, have just made my week. <3 'course, now I'm full of questions, especially with Cerberus being "employed" as a guard. Is there a hierarchy in the Housepets cosmos? Where do the superbeings fit into it? What role do they play? Are...

Welcome Iapetus! Do hang around and I know you will enjoy your stay here on the forums! :D Thank you! ^^ And I'll see about it. =) Welcome, Iapetus! I wouldn't hold your breath on the girl thing, though. Not here. >.> Thanks! =D Heh. Dissension already explained that in a PM. :P Still, I can hope, ...

Thanks, all! ^_^ Glad to be here! jopencjusz: Ah! A Pole! A pleasure to meet you! =D I've never been to Poland, but I've heard very good things about it. If I had to leave the U.S. (and the language barrier weren't a problem), Poland would be one of my first choices for a new home, if not the first ...

New here, and male. =)

Heavens above, you guys are fast! o_0 Welcome, Iapetus. We love new people so please don't become a ghost on us! I make no promises, but I'll see about sticking around. ;) And what a varied and interesting palette you have! I am sure that if you decide to stay, you will have fun. Aww! Thank you! ^_^...

Hey! I go by Iapetus. I may not post much while I'm here, so don't be surprised if I more-or-less vanish after this. ^_^;; That said, I'll give a quick rundown for those who haven't met me before: *ahem* Iapetus Self-described Occidentophile Gender: Male Age: 22 Birthdate: 10/31/1988 Location: The U...
