Peggle.

I'm sure I mentioned this drug...sorry, game once before on this blog years back when I first played the PC version. Well, I still haven't cracked the habit, thanks to a Nintendo DS version which meant I could play it anywhere and now the downloadable Playstation 3 version went for sale for just £3 the other week with a multiplayer online mode and just to make my addiction worse...TROPHIES. These buggres basically mean I have more excuses than ever to try and wipe the floor with every single level.

But yeah, this is also the most frustrating game ever. I'm not the kind of person that gets so angry at games that I start lobbing the controller and breaking the screen, but I do swear a LOT when playing this game. Especially when you're aiming to beat a specific score to beat the stage and the ball you shoot decides to avoid almost every peg on it's descent it makes me rage, lol.

I do sometimes get so wound up I just quit playing to do something less stressful, like cutting the red or the blue wire of a bomb or something. But then the games boogly eyed critters whisper in my ear "come back for another few hours...you will make progress THIS time" and like the sap I am I do.

Oh btw, a new Animals Packing Heat is on it's way!

Southend on Sea.

Dedicated to those noisy bastards that especially in the summer never shut up. and wake me up in the early hours of the morning. I called it Southend-On-Sea because....lol I dunno.

Cloud background was a photo i took just outside my bedroom window with a few filters slapped on it so it looks a bit more hand painted-ish....which is pointless now that I've told you it's a photo.

Two of them are indeed bonking, something that I did actually see more than once on top of a house near where I live, the bloke was flapping his wings and shouting like a nutter while the girl just sat there occasionally blurting out an unenthusiastic 'ow'. LOL TYPICAL MEN AM I RIGHT GIRLS?

And yes I'm fully aware Vuvuzela jokes are now officially out of date but sod it, seagulls are just as obnoxious sometimes. I had fun drawing this though, I guess I get some gratification from drawing something I can't stand, haha. 

(Yeah if you've been to Deviantart or wherever you will have already seen this, just giving the blog an article for it. I drew this back on July the 29th.)

Excuse me, but your son is SUPER FLY

Dedicated to some awesome kid at a wedding party I went to a few weeks ago. He could out dance Napoleon Dynamite any day of the week, I wish someone filmed him. Been ages since a made a over produced, flashy filter-y Photoshop thing like this, I got a little carried away but I had fun. The quote if what I said to his parents, no kidding.

TRAINS.

This is something that has wound me up so much the few weeks I put it into comic form, doodled this morning on the train funnily enough, rather than say tweeting about it. Doesn't seem to matter how early I leave to get a train, or where in London it is, over and underground, this happens. I got to a job interview late last week because not one but THREE trains did this to me. I know I could just look up the times and leave extra early, but yeah, still annoying.

Other dumb train habits: sometimes skipping Romford, sometimes not; usually skipping it when I want to go there, so I have to change that slow Shenfield line, or not skipping it when I don't need it. FFFFF.

One of Stacey's friends discovered quite possibly the best account on Youtube bar none, that by the name of Shankargn, featuring 101 videos of pure gold. The above doodle was inspired by this work of art below.

Swordfish with hammer VS Hammerhead with Sword

 

 #7 in the 'Animals Packing Heat' line up, decided to go for something a little different with this one.

Metal Hawk

So down the sea front near where I live there's this arcade that has some retro games at the back: Space Invaders, Track & Field, Ms. Pac man, and the Simpsons (this has been here since my childhood if I recall) but the highlight is this Namco machine called Metal Hawk. It's 30p a go, all in Japanese and moves and rocks about when you play it, but best of all, it blasts out this music throughout:

So every time (and I mean every time) me and Stacey pass this arcade I HAVE to have a play on it, even though I suck royally at the game, and can just barely fit in the machines seat, so I look like a right tit. But man, that music...
