Who's your favorite Superhero (even if it is Bats or Spidey)?
Wonder Woman stands against a softly sunlit sky. She wields her golden lasso of truth and wears her iconic blue skirt and red and gold-trimmed corset.

Time for my annual holiday post. I like to draw stuff in Paint using just the available shapes and lines the program offers, with my mouse as the only pen. Takes a while, but this is my favorite one I've done:
A drawing of a family of worms, dressed for the holidays. The father wears a maroon winter coat; mom wears a festive snowflake sweater; the daughter wears a light blue puffy coat. And the son is jumping into the frame in his Easter bunny suit.

Movie you've watched more than six times. It is supposed to be a gif. But I couldn't find a good one, because I'm Soo tired....
Two white males in sweater vests and blue shirts stare into the distance with a wry smile on their faces. It is the movie poster for the movie "Step Brothers" starring Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly

Happy Thanksgiving.

Post your favorite Star Trek character. Wrong answers only

Post a red Transformer
Cartoon drawing of Powerglide, a Transformer who converts between a plane and a robot. This pose shows him staring pensively to his right, with his fingers beginning to clench on his hands.

Drop something 80s
A slightly chubby boy lifts his Hawaiian button-front shirt to expose the belly above his plaid shorts. He has tussled brown hair and an open mouth which exposes his two oversized front teeth. The boy's name is "Chunk" and he is doing the "Truffle Shuffle" dance.

3 times on release weekend:
A brown alien with large blue eyes looks pensively straight ahead. He has a slight grimace to his purses lips. The background is out of focus. He is known on earth as E.T. the Extraterrestrial. But in my heart he is the epitome of good in a world that's quick to pass judgement.

Damn, I guess I missed out on a $40 droid that doubles as a platform, plus two action figures and a diorama that isn't related to the OT...

Oh well.

I do not have the space, nor the budget. But damn I just put in my pre-order for this. And then pre-ordered another GI Joe Classified Retro B.A.T. to act as the driver. But maybe I should get another Cobra Commander...I spend too much effing money on things. Someone needs to take my phone away....
