review: augustdreams.

first impression: mother has the same stationary set.

layout: [twenty-eight of forty-nine points] the links work. but the style itself is rather bland. at least you don't have an image with some pseudo-inspired shit lines of poetry. however, it is not so aesthetically pleasing to be reading your entries, and then be teleported to a mystical sidebar of your webcomics, and three million things about me! especially in two thousand four. try cannibalizing your earlier entries or getting another diary just for your extras.

content: [sixty-two of eighty-seven points] the problem with santa carla is all the god damned [vampires]. what isn't well known is that grandpa in that movie was really a werewolf. saddly, there is a certain demographic that is misunderstood. there is also some that are just plain crazy. we read the first few months worth of entries and then went to two thousand four for your actual content; you seem nothing if not articulate.

[classic]. fucking classic. it is rare these days that people even remember that duo. sometimes your writing seems forced: when you're sick, or when talking about your trials at work. but when you write about animals, your passion for them spills through.

though a french creation, it is speculated that the smurfs are representative of pictish people of the british isles. another thing, being a fan of something positive you should know this: tatu aphonen or however his name is spelled won the golden stalin for useless whining about cthulu in webcomics, but he does have a point. your interview should have been much, much shorter. he tends to work better as an one shot gag. we believe that it was in a [machall] convention report where the punchline was "and cthulu eats d10 people each round," or something to that effect.

as we read, only half of your entries seem to be actual content, and the rest appear to be surveys. and whilst the giant spider was cute, it wasn't really even something from the Harpactira genus, or Theraposa Leblondi. for shame. even then, interest is beginning to wane, you do have your following, which you thank at the end of every entry. you must be doing something right.

frequency: [eighteen of twenty-two points] the only real gripe to be had is the fact that some entries that you refer to aren't there. the great collapse may have eaten them, or it might simply being a case of forgetting to actually write the entry. like forgetting to tell someone that the new roommate will arrive next week, and imagining the surprise when the new roomate does show up without anyone the wiser.

bonus: [three points] for the love of a dog.

judgement: boycott the riaa? stealing music is wrong. while mister biased realizes that the only people who make money off of record sales are record companies, it is still the artists who sign the contract in the first place. in your entries, you speak at length about pain, the bizarre idosyncrasies of the catholic church, and your work. not to diminish the significance of your pain in any way, but google knows everything. with the entire internet at one's disposal we know exactly how painful your various disorders can be. just be careful that you do not appear to be trolling for sympathy. mister biased is of the opinion your writing was better the more cantankerous you were, but it could easily divulge into a whiney rant. martyrdom suits very few people. and even before the fact, we are sure that someone accused the martyr of being a whining bitch and to just shut the fuck up already.

continue to persue a carreer with animals as they can bring great joy to one's life. some of mister biased's fondest memories come from managing an exotic pet store in texas.
