Been so long since I visited this blog. (Visited.. Not posted on, just visited)
Hey!
It's Friday.
My exams are on. When do I not have exams right? Eh? Eh??
Am getting so bored. Am losing my mind today. Just so irritated don't know why.
No!! You shall not say PMS I forbid you from using that abbr. here.
So I'm seeing this wave of bitstrip comics on Facebook. I'd been behind my friends asking them, no wait.. Begging them to make an avatar 6 months ago. But no.
They just want to always start with a trend when it dies off and only start if some one else and some one much popular is doing it. Herd mentality.. Baa baa.
Bitstrip,btw, is an app on fb that lets you make a comic version of you and post small comic strips of you and other friends having avatars on bitstrip. It is fun.. Initially. But the fun dies once everybody starts posting the same comic template with just different characters.
He's doing it, am going to do the same. Repetition is not cool.. Nah uh!
Point 2. Bitstrips is fun when your avatar looks like you. People here are making versions of themselves the way they would want to be seen and not how they are. It's like comic version of Photoshop or hyperfilter abuse if that was on instagram.. Or something.
If your cartoon doesn't resemble you, those expressions, those jokes won't seem relatable and hence it won't be funny. You are killing the joke. Arrest them officer jokeratti.(so lame, sorry).
But seriously, since when did prepuberty kids start looking so blessed in all the wrong regions.. Frack logic, it's bitstrips right? No.
I took me 2 hrs to make an avatar. I've a funny nose but I used the one that matches because I want people to recognize that it's me immediately. You can't kid around with a comic avatar that looks like it's right out of bay watch when you are what.. 12? !
That reminds me. I saw a comic that read tgif. Am I the only one that says thank God and then proceeds to sing " it's Friday, Friday.." by R. Black? Please tell me you do that too.. Please please.
Happy thanksgiving and happy weekend to you.
