Welcome to my world.

I'm SomeGuy, 29 years old, residing in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I've studied English Literature, Chinese Martial Arts, and am currently pursuing careers in writing - possibly even in the anime industry itself.

And I work for this site.

And you should be watching Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad.
Or watching Ranma 1/2.
Or learning about the Shinsengumi.
Or planning to visit Vancouver, The Best Place On Earth (actual marketing motto).

Here at the "Smallville" page, I have my personal blog where I'll post about anything and everything. If ya need me or otherwise need to know anything from/about me, here's where I'll be.

If you're really looking for my more professional, site-type stuff, you wanna head over my "Metropolis" world.

It's 1:20am, I've slept 90 minutes the past 40 hrs... Work in 5 hrs... Yeah, it's nap time.

See you folks in Seattle!

ALL of the site posting!!!

Phew. Took me long enough, huh?

And now to relax with a video that never gets old...

Seriously. This is glorious.

Back from con . . .

Emerald City Comic Con is a pretty sweet gig. Very chill, friendly people, pretty well organized, and on the whole a decent variety of things to see and do. Even the lines weren't terrible as I found people were quite willing to have conversations about anything and everything. Will definitely do it again and I could recommend it wholeheartedly. Things I personally did that were pretty memorable include:

  • Watched Phil Lamarr classily sass every less serious question asked in his panel.
  • By happenstance held a door open for Misha Collins, for which he said "Hi, how are you doing?"
  • Had sort of a bro moment between fellow Shaolin martial artists with Ray Park.
  • Asked Grey Delisle about whether directors intentionally get her to use her Azula voice in other work now that they know she has it.
  • Taking and posting the photo of a guy enacting the "Hawkeye Initiative" and then watching it grow to almost 30,000 notes over two days...
  • Got a photo at the Night Zero booth as Drake in the Seattle zombie apocalypse.

Oh yeah, and then there was that point where I asked Felicia Day if she wanted a gun...

She was awesome.

Anyway, I'm back home and awake now. Will try to get those captions done sooner than later, although NO ONE has sent me any pics yet...

Preppin' for Con . . .

Emerald City Comic Con, here we come!

Also, which guests are actually coming so I know what to pack to bring . . .

. . . . fuck, am I seriously considering bring potentially $100 worth of autograph fodder? Well, I guess I'll bring it and then consider from there?

I need to read more comics . . . most of those autographs are free . . .

Y'know what I didn't do last year?

I didn't do terrible, terrible March Member Madness(TM) caption battles last year!

Let's fix that this year. And sure, I only have about 5 days to get at least one in the pail (though I'll be in Seattle most of the weekend anyway, oops), but why not?

Welp, here's hoping this doesn't fail!
