6. WORD OF THE DAY! 4/13/12. Macho.

My plan to slowly morph this from a blog about obscure comic book miscellanea, pokemon humor, and nostaligic nausea to a blog soley about obscure Japanese commercials starring talking beans begins and ends with "MANLESHIBA!"

5. WORD OF THE DAY! 4/11/12. Product Placement.

Grossest brand Twinklies Snack Cakes are the best thing wrapped in a synthetic yellow goop and wrapped in plastic at your local corner shop. But don't take it from me; take it from everyone's dog-loving super pal, Rorschach.

4. WORD OF THE DAY! 4/12/12. Futurology.

I couldn't go a whole week without a pokemon reference and what is a better way to celebrate the new Pikachu background than to share this hilarious video?

1. MIXED BAG. TABLE TOP TALES: BLOOD & PORCELAIN

Its funny how doing blogs on my MTG decks has allowed me all kinds of inspirations. For example, while working on this deck article, I changed out about five cards, and then played and won three of the four games I played against my friend, Matt. By analyzing my own choices and how I spend card slots, I was able to realize some changes that needed to be made right off the bat.

If you want to leave some suggestions or comments about my decks feel free. And if you're curious about Magic: The Gathering I certainly recommend it. Now is a great time to get in the world's best trading card game.

7. WORD OF THE DAY. 3/28/12. Coign of Vantage.

I found this amusing as both a humorous jab at the mishaps of drawing comics and the mishaps of people posting weird facebook pictures. I really miss reading manga and watching anime, but, between my plethora of other hobbies and school, this hobby has taken the greatest hit. Any recommendations of anime/manga to get me out of my funk?





6. TABLETOP TALES: THE HAUNTED WURMWOOD DECK, GRAVEYARD SHIFT EDITION

I decided to put up another detailed decklist of my wurmwood deck. The deck is really coming together to muster a Green-Blue Self-mill graveyard deck and my goal is to make it work with just cards from Innistrad block. If you have any comments or pointers, feel free to leave a comment.

I really have enjoyed the Innistrad block and am highly anticipating the release of Avacyn Restored.

"When you kiss, 200 million germs are spread between the two mouths in a second." -Mameshiba

3. WORD OF THE DAY. 3/31/12. Devestation.

So, apparently I think I'm a political satirist or something? Or maybe I just realized that I need at least one pokemon reference in every five articles or a house will fall on me? The latter would be quite unfortunate for me, the house, and the Kansas girl who would come out of it and steel my shoes. What? they were a gift from my mother?

2. WORD OF THE DAY.  4/1/12. Part. 1. Werewolf.

"The werewolf meeting came to a head, with the leader, Fido White-Wind making adorable "Berf brof ruff" noises and then another larger canine making an aggressively whiny, "whimper whine hmmm hmmm..." noise. Teenage girls can't even hold back their laughter at the ineptitude of the event."

1. WORD OF THE DAY.  4/1/12. Part. 1. Vampire.

" Edward bumped his stupid vampire head against the window at the side of the science classroom. Bella looked up, gormlessly, and sighed,"Damn, I want to have his half-demon baby." "
