MorrowDays

Tomorrow I'm starting my advent calendar.

Posted by MorrowDays Nov. 30, 2008 @ 1:12 PM EST

Yeah man. DECEMBER. I'm really looking forward to snow.. and christmas, and all that stuff.

I'm also looking forward to getting some new stuff up here.. mainly a game. For a while now I've been really impressed by the fact that flash artists can like, get PAID by sponsors if they make good games, so I'm going to try my hand at that.

I've started already, really I started a while ago, but its been on hold with other projects I've been working on, but now, today I've seen some sponsored games that really reminded me of how cool that would be. To have something sponsored.

I really don't know what I'm doing with actionscript so this will definitely be an experiment, but I hope it turns out well. I like it so far.

But expect that sometime in December unless I say something else, because I'm hoping to get it done soon!

what are you guys doing for the holidays? :]

It's pretty much snowy in Newcastle already! I'll be opening my calender tomorrow as well! Unfortunately I'll be spending most of my time revising for January exams, but after that it's time for us to start that game we talked about!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

CRIMBO! HORRAY! that'll be a fun game, I'm looking forward to that. Good luck with your exams too!

snow :D!

I live in Canada, so usually we have like a foot of snow by October.
but for some reason its barely snowed at all this year. Most of the ground is still visible O_o


Nov. 30, 2008 | 1:31 PM Goat-Man says:

Looks like you're in Canada too. I guess I should clarify then.
I'm in Alberta. Haha

Nov. 30, 2008 | 4:38 PM MorrowDays responds:

We should hang out some time!

oh wait, I'm in Toronto, and Canada is really big!

but we should still hang out sometime.

Well we had a bit of snow recently no? But yea i want it back :(

Nov. 30, 2008 | 4:42 PM MorrowDays responds:

yeah, it was great, I went tobogganing and everything, but then it decided to rain and it ruined everything. :[

While I wait for it to snow, I'm busy working on schemes to become amazing at actionscript so as to overtake you for best-toronto-newground- flash-game-artist, or BTNFGA, for short.

but this is very unlikely. :]

This letter is not a memoir. Nor is it a policy memorandum issued by the government or by a local think tank. Rather, it is an assessment of how it breaks my heart and fills my chest with agonizing pain when I see Newgrounds put maledicent thoughts in our children's minds. Let us note first of all that it would be charitable of me not to mention that following its words left to right and down a page is like following fingernails on a chalkboard. Fortunately, I am not beset by a spirit of false charity so I will instead maintain that once one begins thinking about free speech, about patronizing big-labor bosses who use ostracism and public opinion to prevent the airing of views contrary to their own uninformed beliefs, one realizes that it is extraordinarily brazen. We've all known that for a long time. However, Newgrounds's willingness to encumber the religious idea with too many things of a purely earthly nature and thus bring religion into a totally unnecessary conflict with science sets a new record for brazenness.

I myself have this advice to offer: The world has changed, Newgrounds; get used to it. I agree that while decent people sit by, snore, and have their maws open, Newgrounds is out forcing me to abandon all hope. But I also think that we must stop tiptoeing and begin marching boldly and forthrightly towards our goal, which is to hold out the prospect of societal peace, prosperity, and a return to sane values and certainties. Newgrounds labels anyone it doesn't like as "obscene". That might well be a better description of it.

Some people have indicated that Newgrounds apparently wants to use us to fulfill its flighty mission. I can neither confirm nor deny that statement, but I can say that Newgrounds and its subalterns are, by nature, irresponsible witless-types. Not only can that nature not be changed by window-dressing or persiflage, but I would really like to comment on Newgrounds's attempt to associate gangsterism with resistentialism. There is no association. That fact is simply inescapable to any thinking man or woman. "Thinking" is the key word in the previous sentence. If Newgrounds ever claims that it is a spokesman for God, we must answer only one thing: "No, the reverse is true." Before you declare me drossy, let me assert that I wonder what would happen if Newgrounds really did provide financial support to backwards banana republics and their nettlesome dictators. There's a spooky thought.

The irony is that Newgrounds's most dishonest memoranda are also its most uneducated. As the French say, "Les extremes se touchent." Whenever I hear someone say that taxpayers are a magic purse that never runs out of gold, my upper lip develops an involuntary curl. It's a pity. Newgrounds's opinion is that people don't mind having their communities turned into war zones. Of course, opinions are like sphincters: we all have them. So let me tell you my opinion. My opinion is that Newgrounds yearns for the Oriental despotisms of pre-Hellenic times, the neolithic culture that preceded the rise of self-consciousness and egoism. By the same token, it abhors the current era, in which people are free to purge the darkness from Newgrounds's heart.

It would be hard to find anyone who doesn't agree that Newgrounds feels it has not only a right, but also a duty, to assuage the hungers of its hangers-on with servings of fresh scapegoats. Likewise, it is absolutely determined to believe that the moon is made of green cheese, and it's not about to let facts or reason get in its way. Instead of taking the easy path in life, the downward path, we must choose the upward path regardless of the pain, suffering, and sacrifice that this choice entails. Only then can we finally take steps against the whole cheeky brotherhood of beastly politicasters. Yes, Newgrounds will try to stop us by breaking down our communities, but in its quest to separate people from their roots and cut their bonds to their natural communities it has left no destructive scheme unutilized. Already, some argumentative-to-the-core freaks have begun to impair the practice of democracy, and with terrifying and tragic results. What precepts will follow from their camp is anyone's guess. Individually, Newgrounds's stances subject us to the fatuous yapping of wicked lugs. But linked together, Newgrounds's propositions could easily destroy our moral fiber. Let me end this letter by challenging my readers to deal with Newgrounds's venal ploys on a case-by-case basis. Are you with me, or with the forces of negativism and oppression?

Nov. 30, 2008 | 4:51 PM MorrowDays responds:

I read all of that and I don't know what you're trying to say, if it its a joke. is this about newgrounds ruining a sense of community or something?

Wow, it's like the story of christmas in calendar form.

Nov. 30, 2008 | 4:37 PM MorrowDays responds:

Usually I eat santa between days 21 and 24.


Nov. 30, 2008 | 6:02 PM notorious says:

advent calendar hellz yes

have you seen mine from 2 years ago?

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view /351938

they're hard work. You have to remember to do something every night, unless you have 24-25 animations already prepared. Then you have to update the file here, too.

Nov. 30, 2008 | 6:21 PM MorrowDays responds:

I totally hadnt! I watched all of it, good stuff, 25 is quite funny.

I don't think i'd be able to do that. I'd like to do SOMETHING for christmas though.
WESHALLSEE.

You and your snow... in Australia we burn while your freezing

Dec. 1, 2008 | 4:28 PM MorrowDays responds:

Dec. 1, 2008 | 5:45 AM Plaski says:

I just want to eat you out.

Dec. 1, 2008 | 4:28 PM MorrowDays responds:

whenever man.


Dec. 6, 2008 | 9:57 PM notorious says:

Dec. 7, 2008 | 8:05 PM MorrowDays responds:

pieces of it are in my stomach.

the first 7.

I meant that I'd be starting eating chocolates every day, not that I'd be animating every day. :(

SORRY

HMMMMM. Lol

Good luck, but it will probably get a low score, I lost tonnes of points since it was so late :P

Merry Christmas!

Dec. 21, 2008 | 1:04 PM MorrowDays responds:

har har, yeah. noto got this mixed up too, I meant that I'd be starting to eat chocolates, not that I'd be animating lots of stuff.
