Chicken vs. egg, Uncontrolled daydreaming OH NO.
Did I give Alex in Mcide vivid (uncontrolled and ridiculous!) daydreams because I have them, or did I develop them because the football robot bit looked amusing?
(People used to ask me whether the comic was autobiographical. OH GOD, I always answered, I REALLY REALLY HOPE NOT.)
On the one hand, I don't remember having them when I was younger. On the other, there are a lot of things that I tend to forget about myself for days(weeks,months,years) on end. Like the other day when I was thinking about why I never got into playing the trumpet as much as I should have - braces. Wait, I thought. I had braces? O_O I did! FOR SEVERAL YEARS. How the fuck do you forget something like that? D: HOW?
What sparked this post, Keffy?
I was sitting in my philosophy of language class. We got our first papers back and I received a very respectable 90% on it, thank you very much. Musing over it, I wondered, "How, Keffy, do you go about waltzing into a 400-level philosophy class without so much as a 102 class for context and start pulling decent grades?"
IMMEDIATE MENTAL IMAGE: Myself, jumping onto our tiny little desks with my fists raised to the air in triumph, screaming, "BECAUSE I AM A KATAMARI OF KNOWLEDGE!!!!"
I choked a little on my Sprite. Don't mind me, I'm just sitting in the front row of a referential theory lecture, making funny noises.
...
Well, that was only mostly incoherent. I must be on the mend.
Speaking of the comic, it will have been online for 3 years on Valentine's Day. I wish it had more pages. If I had a reasonable number of pages, I would feel justified in celebrating this anniversary somewhat. As it is, I just hope I update by then, holy crap. >_o
