I've been going through all the emails I've been getting about Germaine's new look. The majority have been pretty positive. Of course it doesn't sit well with everyone, but you can't please everyone... so I'm not worried about that. The upside of the new change though, I cut down on 90% of the "I want to see Germaine naked" emails. Sweet! So that alone, makes this whole overhaul a success. All in all though, most people seem to get where I'm going with her character. She's the same person, just fatter... and with less hair... and not as sexy... and that weeds out a lot of boob-seeking fools. So that's cool. I'll be posting a new toon on Thursday or Friday.

Posted the new Foamy rant about game achievements. wHOOOOOOOOO!

Some folks are a bit worried about the whole "Germaine going bald" thing. Germaine will get back to normal soon enough. Consider the germaine crap a "phase" she's going through. At this stage she's just revolting against the idea of what people think she should be. (Which ironically, is what this post is about). After like, 6 years of being abused as a Goth chick, she's kinda had it and would rather be a fat bald chick than deal with the bullshit that comes with being "attractive". (Doesn't anyone remember the "I want to see Germaine Naked" requests?) Her character is pretty anti-establishment and the bald thing is just taking it to the next level. She's revolting against the idea of what "Goth", "Punk", & "Emo" should be. Since all the genres have been massively watered down over the years, she'd rather not be associated with the whole group(s). Goths & punks came to be because they rebelled against the norm. Now that goth & punk have become acceptable forms of fashion... what do people do to rebel against the "rebels". It's really quite fitting for her character if you think about it.

With that being said, next episode I'm posting is a rant, so things will be getting back to normal with Foamy. Germaine will sort of evolve over the next year or so.

And for those worried about the tech-support guy losing his job.... isn't everybody? He will be returning in probably around 2 months or so, so again, don't worry.

J.

Now that the 2 "Germaine shaves her head" episodes are out of the way. Next episode is going to be a full on rant about "Achievements" (Yeah, the Xbox ones) I may put it out a bit early, 'cause I want people to see it. It's one of my favorite newer episodes. Aside from Tech-Support V. Oh yeah, for those emailing me wondering what has come of the tech-support guy... yeah, he actually looses his Tech-Support gig. He'll be back though. So I didn't kill him off or anything.

Posted a new toon "A Change Of Face". Every once in awhile I like to switch things up with the Germaine character. So She'll be looking this way for a little while. She'll also be looking a bit chunkier than usual. Most of the time when Foamy is yelling at her for being a fat bastard, she kinda looks relatively thin, except for her ass... so I'm going to gradually mold her physique to be that of a fat bastard. With most of my stuff, I'm going to work in some social commentary on fat people, how they're treated and so forth. Besides, it'll knock out some of the "I want to see Germaine Naked" requests...unless of course they're chubby chasers or somethin'. Rants and stuff like that will remain the same, as will all the squirrel characters. So don't worry.

For fellow Foamy Fanatics, I posted a new CD on iTunes called "SQUIRREL SONGS". It's the largest collection of squirrel songs, ever! 52 songs! All the one's in the Squirrel Songs Episodes are there as well as a ton of experimental and unreleased Squirrel Songs. It's Musical Madness.

Also, someone asked me if I sold shirts... er, yeah, At iLL WiLL PREss Found that kind of odd, because I've been on NG for like... 7 years or something and some folks don't know I have a shop. I should hire an agent or something.

Oh well.

Posted the new tech support toon. Whooooo. Other than that, Foamy stuff is moving along at a normal pace. New toon soon.

Posted a new toon. Oddly enough, my glib comment about someone making a "Caligula : The Musical" actually came to be. Who knew people would sink so much money into making crap. In all seriousness, I didn't even check to see if someone made such a crappy idea because it seems like such a crappy idea. I could have been a broadway musical producer. Damn my eyes!

For those not interested in the whole Super Bowl thing, a cartoon with a unique perspective on how to improve various sports activities.

I posted a new toon "A Woman's Deceit". All about the sneakiness of yer average female. (No, it's not meant to be sexist). Also for those who actually but stuff from my site. I knocked down the price a bit on the DVDs. Kind of like a "The Economy Sucks" sale. iLL WiLL PrEss Awsome!
