Hey Little Boy Do You Wanna See the Dirty Pickle?!!
Scary title huh? It scared the hell out of me for sure! (: This is Zodiac,
a new emag based on the ideas of.. ok shut up it's a stupid emag damnit just
read the damn thing and give me money! Money all mine%@$#!@$#!@!!! Send your
money in a 3x5 envelope stamped and addressed to:
....you think I'd give my real info? Damn I bet YOU'RE an elite haxor..
I gave up Schlong mag for this because schlong cannot be repeated on public
Television, also I was arrested and beaten by the Soviet Communist Rebirth
Party for several nights at a time because my ideas conflicted with their
plotting against the movement of Westernization across the world. But then
I broke free, and other countries broke free, and everybody was happy, and
there was peace and goodwill and lots of sunshine and lollipops and goody
goody gumdrops for everybody! And then Jan got mad, and she yelled Marsha
Marsha Marsha! And I beat the shit out of her with my backfist because she's
such a stupid bitch, and then I pulled out my sawed off 12 guage and started
blowing peoples' heads off with it, and then a little teddy bear came out and
said, "666, number of the beast." And I believed him, and I killed him and
hid him to show my appreciation for the great omnipotent teddy bear that he
is. And then I started getting angry at the teddy bear, and I shot him again
and I shot him again and I shot him again, and thenn I started drooling and
I broke her diary, you know... her... that evil bitch... she will die for
her actions... she will suffer the anger of a thousand dead goats... she
will... oh wait this is an emag. Forget you read ANY of that! (:

Interview with a gimp from #dogsex
by sinister x
ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
One day while I was at empty's house we got bored and decided it would be
funny to put an interview with some sexually perverse dumbass from one of
those 3rd world channels in here. And where better to go than #dogsex? (:
Well we didn't that day but I was determined to interview at least ONE of
those... whatever you call them, so here is my log with Doggurrl who
graciously fell victim to hours of laughter.
Session Start: Mon Dec 23 22:44:18 1996
<sinistrx> can I interview you for an electronic magazine?
<sinistrx> called Zodiac
<DogGurrl> Sure
<sinistrx> ok cool, so like uhhh.. how long have you been in to uhhh.. dogsex?
<DogGurrl> Where can i get a copy?
<sinistrx> umm, it will be released soon on ftp.cdrom.com I
think
<DogGurrl> the channel?
<DogGurrl> about 5 minutes
<DogGurrl> or do you mean with a dog?
<sinistrx> the latter one
<DogGurrl> Oh! like i tried letting my dog lick me when i
was younger, like 10 years ago i guess.
<DogGurrl> They have reallllly long tongues!!!
<sinistrx> yeah, I would suppose so.
<DogGurrl> have you ever tried or wondered about it?
<DogGurrl> are you m or f?
<sinistrx> m
<DogGurrl> have you ever tried or wondered about sex with
an animal? they have a really good f.a.q. here
<DogGurrl> just type !faq in the channel
<DogGurrl> it would be good for the magazine
<DogGurrl> it can tell a lot more than i can.
<sinistrx> nah, I'm sure you can tell me a lot more about
intercourse with an animal than some measely faq can (:
<DogGurrl> well there isn't much to tell. It's like sex
with a person but with an animal.
<sinistrx> oh really? tell me more.
<DogGurrl> at least he doesn't get a beer when he comes.
<DogGurrl> and they don't make you sleep in the wet spot
<DogGurrl> and they don't stay out all night drinking and
come home and want you to cook breakfast
<sinistrx> yeah, you know how those wet spots are
<DogGurrl> hehehehe
<sinistrx> so anything else you can tell me?
<sinistrx> you know, about dogsex?
<sinistrx> you know, about having sex with a dog because
you can't get any with a real person?
<DogGurrl> hehehe
<DogGurrl> as if!
<sinistrx> well do you?
<DogGurrl> hehehehheeh
<DogGurrl> i get more than enough from guys and girls as
well as dogs, honey!!!
<DogGurrl> cottonbal told me you are just asking me this to
jack off, so maybe you should try shopping around a bit
yourself! ;)
<sinistrx> so you do it with guys, girls, AND dogs?
<sinistrx> do you believe everything cottonbal tells you?
does he satisfy your growing desires?
<DogGurrl> If you could have multiple orgasms, wouldn't you?
<DogGurrl> growing desires? you sound like penthouse
letters! ;)
<sinistrx> nope, can't say I would
<DogGurrl> You're missing out
<sinistrx> well does he or does he not? just answer the
questions ma'am.
<DogGurrl> This has gone from interview to interrogation.
<DogGurrl> Sorry, now please leave me alone
<sinistrx> sorry this shit is just too funny
<sinistrx> come on we just wanna know how many dogs you
fuck a night
Session Close: Mon Dec 23 23:06:50 1996
I'm sad enough to say that not one bit of that log was edited, her friend
cottonbal finally came out and said, "You leave her alone or you'll be
sorry." Like he could do anything anyway, oh well it was worth the amusement
we all got. (:
sinister x - the potty of power
The Evil Bots Spawned From the Depths of Hell
Sinister x (a.k.a. Potty of Power)
ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
In contrast to an earlier article I wrote entitled "Common Ideology" I
decided to put my research into scene politics a step further, it's quite
an interesting level of psychology I have found in my own studies. My
first guess was that the scene was starting to fall short in its ways
because of the internet and its vast ability to allow even the biggest
dumbasses out there to "point and click" their way to our so-called
elite standards in the scene (in case that sounded confusing I meant
the elite standard of the scene in general, better to tell that right
now instead of getting thousands of flame-mail letters telling me how
I'm selfish and what not). After further research I figured it might be
caused because of all the kids in #ansi that talk about goat sex and
any of another several sexually deviated topics. After even FURTHER
research I had believed it was because people in the scene look up to
ACiD and iCE which are both death with which I say find new leaders.
Finally, after several more days of a little bit more study while idleing
in #ansi I figured it all out. It's the bots that have turned the scene
into a shithole. Honestly, if you go into #ansi and you're not an op,
are you going to say anything that might contribute to the development
of the scene? Probably not, and that's because you probably subconsciously
if nothing else know that if you don't follow the status quo of acting
just like tguardian, wendel, and that little crowd of newschoolers (and
for the ones that aren't newschool they sure act like it) who basically
run #ansi, then you will be kickbanned, tormented by others in the channel,
or of course the best, being kicked by the bot with a nice little fuck you
message to go along with it followed by the laughter you can't see before
you're able to rejoin the channel. I'm sure this has happened to alot of
you out there and I have a solution to it, ban the bots.. That's right,
take out Philez and Phlome and you're on your way to a more successful
scene, you can tell yourself it doesn't really matter and you don't care
but you know you wouldn't even join #ansi if 1) you didn't care for the
scene at all or 2) you just wanted the recognition and power. I pursued
the recognition for a long time and ended up stumped every time whereas
in a normal channel I would have been able to talk freely with many of the
people who know I have something to contribute to the scene and I know
they also have something to contribute to the scene, even if it's just
ideas and thoughts it's worth it is it not? A group of people should
work together to better the group as a whole, not for one person, so with
this I say, if you want intellectual freedom, if you want to be able to
NOT be controlled by people like tm_ who you don't know and halfway don't
give a shit about because you know in a normal situation they wouldn't
have their ops through friends who own the bots who give them power and
let them use it to its fullest extent, if you want to one day not have
to say, "The scene sucks" because in fact you would know that it doesn't
suck, then help take the power out of the system and put it back into
the people who mean to do better things with it, maybe not me, maybe not
the next guy, but someone out there who can definitely liven things up
in the scene. Well that's all I have to say, if you want to flame me that's
your problem, and if you want to join me I can be contacted on the Effnet
on irc as sinistrx usually or through email at sinistrx@fastlane.net (all
art requests need to go through email because usually I forget a lot of
the requests I get on the irc and I delete my logs to save space
periodically. Thank you for your time if you've read this far. (:

from Spot in months now), Schlong emag, and other groups I'm not in

PS: About requests, I take ansi and vga requests, and as for vga I only
do full 640x480 or higher pics, no small logos for pages (I do enough
of THAT shit at work already). Ansi requests are usually logos and
50-100 (or sometimes 200, but don't go bluntly asking for one) line
pics. All requests go through email at sinistrx@fastlane.net don't
come hunt me down on the irc just to ask because I won't do you one
if you do.
Get With The Program
-Dave barry
Ok.. well i thought you might like reading this its just a funny article i
thought...so here we go.
You've seen those computer magazines with names like Data Dweeb and
no doubt you've asked yourself: what kind of no-life loser actually reads
those things? I do! I look at pictures of new computer systems and say
"Whoa! Check out the 6X SCSI-2 CD-ROM drive on THAT baby!" I am a total
computer geek.
I've owned more than 20 computers. I'm always on the look out
for a new one to replace my current one when it becomes obsolete, which
usually happens before i can get it all the way out of the box. I have
learned to use my computer as a productive tool in my everyday life, and
you can too. We live in the computer age, and you need to get with the
program. The computer world has a language all its own, just like Hungary.
The difference is if you hang out with Hungarians long enough, you eventually
start to understand what they're talking about. Here are some basic computer
terms:
Hardware. This is the part of the computer that stops working when you
spill beer on it.
Software. These programs give instructions to the CPU, which processes
billions of tiny facts called BYTES, and within a fraction of a second it
sends you an error message that requires you to call customer-support hotline
and be placed on hold for approximately the life-span of a caribou.
Megahertz. This is really, really big hertz.
Ram. This gives guys a way of deciding whose computer has the biggest
studliest memory. That's important because the more memory a computer has the
faster it can produce error messages.
The Internet is the single most important development in the history
of human communications since the invention fo call waiting. A bold statement?
Indeed, but consider how the internet can enhance our lives.
Imagine that you need to 1.make an airline reservation; 2.buy concert
tickets; 3.research a tax question; 4.help your child with a school report.
Now you simply turn on your computer, dial up your internet access number, and
in less than a instant your listening to a busy signal!
Once you get through you're connected to millions of people all over
the globe and can cha with total strangers. As a new person-or "newbie"- on
internet you'll probally be struck by the fact of alot of messages contain
odd looking words. This is a shorthand users have developed so they dont waste
valuable time typing. Heres a typical conversation:
Person A: Whats Up?
Person B: Not much <g>
Person A: lol
Person B: rotfl
This may look like gobbledygook, but these people are having a
extremly witty conversation.
They <g> means "grin". Indicating the writer meant to be humorous.
Interestingly enough, the statement is almost never even remotely humorous.
Lol means "laughing out loud" and is generally used to respond to a <g>. Rotfl
means "Rolling on the floor laughing" is used to for a statement funnier than
one that is merely lol. there is no end to the hilarity on the internet.
All the foregoing information might be of practical value if it hadn't
all become obsolete minutes after i wrote it. The computer revolution, changes
everything way too fast for the human brian to comprehend. 14-year-olds really
understand whats going on. After all they're not human.
We'er only begining to scratch the surface of the computer's
capabilities. We do not know what lies around the next bend on the information
superhighway. All we know for certain is when we finally get there, we wont
have enough ram.
- Well i hope ya liked it. i thought it was funny =) later all.
-empty
Alright. Empty asked me to write an article for his new fearsome project, so
I figured sure,he's my nigga, i'll write some shit.
Everytime I get on irc, theres always some artist in whatever channel,
whether its #cia or #ansi it really doesnt matter, constantly repeating
themselves regarding his/her gayness, or a possible sexual experience they
would like to have with a family member and/or animal. Well id like to take
a minute and talk about it ;)
* Note: This information is EXCLUDING myself, and friends. We are different,
its ok for us to be morons on irc.
It seems to me, that since there is such a lack of things to do on irc, people
create multiple personalities to make their time on the internet more
enjoyable. Some people choose their second, third, etc personality a
homosexual, some may deside they want to be a cute little fuzzy bunny rabbit
that does nothing but nibble on cardboard all day. It really doesnt matter.
But by seeing this everyday, I have realized that these personalities are
something that the person actually WANTS to be, but are scared to, so they
transform themselves to this altered form where its OK to be a faggot, or a
cute fuzzy bunny rabbit, and everybody laughs at it. Does this in fact mean,
that every art guru we see on irc saying they fantasize about sex with their
dead grandparents, or someone that finds dogs attractive when they're in heat
ACTUALLY *DO* like this sick shit? It could. Personally I think its fucking
hilarious, seeing all these morons pretend to be goat molestors when in real
life they're 350lb white trash with pimples, red hair, and glasses. I mean
just think about it, someone who spends their time sitting on IRC pretending
to be a faggot all the time must be really fucked up mentally, or so
SOCIALLY distraught by their horrendous appearance that they have ABSOLUTELY
nothing better to do! Now im not saying there's anything wrong with being on
irc alot, I idle 24/7 whether im there or not, but come on, give me a break
with this gay "uNF uNF" bullshit. Its old, played out, and just boring now.
* Note: This is so when im saying "uNF uNF" and telling someone to "Gimme
some lovin" there arent 500 other assholes doing the same thing.
My suggestion is this. If you're so bored you resort to this on irc, why not
get NEWSBOT, leech HUNDREDS of megs of pornography from newsgroups EVERY day,
and spend your spare time masturbating to overweight black ladies in their
forties! You will find this much more constructive and you'll develop skills
you'd NEVER think were possible with the human hand.
* Note: this information provided on a "I heard from someone" basis. I never
actually do these things nor would I ever masturbate to overweight
black ladies in the forties, especially if they're getting gang banged
by a couple of sexy white boys with long dicks that are covered in
chocolate sauce that the black ladies dog is licking off of their
buffed and muscular bodies.
Welp, thats about all I have to say about that. Look for me in this month's
issue of STUDS, and catch me on irc.
This is a formal apology letter to my friend Josh.
Listen man, this whole thing started out as a joke, and ended as a disaster.
I was just fucking around about the channel key, and going off to purposely
seem like I was losing my temper, but I wasnt. And then Ian started fucking
around to, without me knowing it, and then told me after you logged off that
he was "the icing on the cake". Well woop-de-fucking-do, his icing tasted
like shit. Anyway, I apologize for being a total asshole and going off about
a channel key to <group plug> #Useless. It was the thought of you not giving
me the channel key that hurt. *snif* I thought you didnt care about me
anymore. *snif* And the thought of you having John as your sole lover on irc
just brought me to tears. Please accept my apology so we can continue
countless hours of ircSex, and phoneSex.
Kisses, hugs, and a bouqet of Roses. Your friend, Brad.
"Once there was a little boy" - By Zeus II and J-dogg
Once there was a little boy who didnt have anything to do. All his toys had he
broke long ago, and he was starting to get frustrated. So he started reading
daddys magazines. And in one of the ads, he saw a COMPUTER! Wow, he thought,
and started begging his dad for a new computer to play with. He begged, and
begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,

and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,

and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged. And five minutes later, when his dad had enuff, they both went
down to the local supermarket and bought a pentium pro 819mHz.
When the boy had installed all the software, he realized that he needed
something to DO with the computer. So he went down to the supermarket and
bought Super Mutant Ninja Hydro Mega Auto Cyber Flipflop X-wing Gay
Hermafrodite Sperminator Eliminator Malaria Cancer Chlamydia Turtles (tm).
( (c) Super Mutant Ninja Hydro Mega Auto Cyber Flipflop X-wing Gay
Hermafrodite Sperminator Eliminator Malaria Cancer Chlamydia Games inc.)
However, twelve days later when he had finished all the 500 levels of
Super Mutant Ninja Hydro Mega Auto Cyber Flipflop X-wing Gay
Hermafrodite Sperminator Eliminator Malaria Cancer Chlamydia Turtles (tm).
( (c) Super Mutant Ninja Hydro Mega Auto Cyber Flipflop X-wing Gay

he was once again bored with life. So he started reading those damn magazines
again, and this time he saw another interesting ad. A MODEM!@#2!",!!.
Once again he begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,

and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged, and begged,
and begged to his father that he would buy him a damn modem. And the father
did. And the boy started BBSing, and trading, and bullshit, but nothing of
that is as interesting as the day he started with I...R....C. He was on one
day, and he decided to be the NumberOne Master of Taking over, Flooding,
kicking and banning on the whole wide web. (web=world?)
So he got himself a T3. And started pissing ppl off. And kept on doing so
for one year, until one very glorious day when some people came to his house
and knocked on the door. They looked like totally fucked up 16-18 year olds,
as if they've been sitting in front of a screen 24hrs a day.
They were carrying Multi-Ectoplasma Telephone Lazer Killer Erector Super

[3CThis frightened the little 12-year-old-boy a bit, but he was too dumb to
really understand what was going on. He opened the door.
-Hello, we represent the trading, art, coding and demo scenes. And we're

" Wow its the scene "
Well as you may already know. this is a typical #ansi bitch article, but
if you read this. you may agree. who here has gone to ansi before. and just
watched what they were saying? how many times a day can you get on and see
them talking about art? NEVER. there acting gay or kicking people..most of
ops are assholes...yes. some are actually nice. if you know them..but back
to the point of this editorial. the scene in general sucks people in #ansi
have the least maturity level i have ever seen. and are by far the most
moronic. Yes. there are teh exceptions..sinister x. and all the people in
this mag i invited to join i consider some of the mature people out there,
there are more..but i cant think of them at this moment...
*** Now talking in #sodium
*** _sodium sets mode: +o empty
<_sodium> ok
<_sodium> start
<empty> when did you first get into the scene?
<_sodium> around 1991-92 i got involved in the art scene.. i had been doing
some warez prior to that
<empty> what was your first medium? ansi, ascii ect..
<_sodium> one day i accidently set foot in a local board's warez section and
it all started from there
<_sodium> ansi..
<_sodium> was my first
<empty> did you learn off of anyone? if so who?
<_sodium> wouldnt it be better if you were on the same server as me?
<empty> im not lagged..
<_sodium> ok
<_sodium> nevermind
<empty> did you learn off of anyone? if so who?
<_sodium> well i originally started imitating slum dweller at first.. and a
hand full of art/warez people such as myself
<_sodium> in addition to ansi i now do some ascii and vga and alot of digital
tracking
<_sodium> and html <g>
<_sodium> i never did get into ripscript
<empty> what was the first group you joined, and what was your opinion
on the scene in general then?
<_sodium> the first ART group i joined was a local 619 (san diego, californa)
group called "Chaos/2" which stood for "Cracking Hacking and Other Shit" .. i
was head art coordinator so its self explainatory how much our ansi department
sucked <g>
<_sodium> back then being on the scene was a constant struggle to be "accepted
into a group"
<empty> whats your opinion on the scene back then?
<empty> as in how it was..
<_sodium> i dint have much of an opinion back then.. it was just something i
did.. alot of people say they liked 91-92 years of the scene
but i didnt cause it was hard for me cause i couldnt draw to save my life
<empty> did you get bashed much when you first started out?
<_sodium> yea
<_sodium> alot
<_sodium> there were alot of egotistical bastards in the warez scene back then
.. of course now the art scene's attitude is more annoying than the warez
scene today
<_sodium> hang on.. ill brb
<empty> what was the first major group you joined?
<empty> k
<_sodium> back
<_sodium> ok
<empty> and was it the first time you applied that got you it? or did you
have to apply many times
<_sodium> well after a load of small local groups (including p-chan's group,
studioX), 619's biggest group, PRO (which including people like myself,
asylum, and mrk, merged with Shiver.. so i never even had to apply..
<_sodium> after being in shiver i got named the guy that "kept shiver alive
for its last three months"
<_sodium> thank you
<_sodium> hell.. i have awful grammer
<empty> when do you think you were in your prime? ansi wise.
<empty> nah..not reallt
<empty> nah..not really you should see me half the time.
<_sodium> well i keep getting better at ansi.. you never really have a prime..
but my biggest rush is when i got accepted into acid productions..
<_sodium> that new star wars theatrical preview kicked serious ass
<empty> i know..its gonna kick total ass
<_sodium> and stuff
<empty> its already made billions..you seen the beavis and butthead movie yet?
<_sodium> yea i did ... HEY?? WHAT HAPPENED TO THE INTERVIEW??
<_sodium> this is zodiac magazine not siskel and that fat guy
<empty> oh yeah. ok..well as i was saying did you start your own group up
ever?
<_sodium> nope
<_sodium> i thought about it acouple times
<_sodium> but you need to have alot of time to do it
<_sodium> extra time
<_sodium> like lordjazz
<_sodium> and tguardian
<_sodium> then again both their groups died
<_sodium> nevermind
<_sodium> i did start alot of emags tho
<_sodium> most of them didnt even make it to issue one
<empty> which emags?
<empty> any anyone would remember/
<empty> ?
<_sodium> tide/axis/crucifx didnt make it to issue one.. trauma magazine was
a joke i put out.. classic got to issue three and was fairly popular and had
some nice music and stuff.. and now i do acrylic weekly.. which is uh.. weekly
<empty> speaking of acrylic, why did you start it.?
<_sodium> tide was supposed to be the bleach magazine that i created with
lordjazz but bleach fell apart before the mag was done
<_sodium> why?
<_sodium> well
<_sodium> i was sitting in my hallway
<empty> and?
<_sodium> and i started humming a tune and i realized i was humming the tune
to an old "WEEK IN WAREZ" magazine (the warez scene's old weekly magazine)
and i thought, "why cant the art scene have something like that?"
<_sodium> and BEHOLD
<_sodium> i stood up
<_sodium> raised my hand to the sky
<_sodium> and screamed "IT WILL BE DONE!"
<_sodium> and lightning crashed
<_sodium> and the lights went out
<_sodium> it was actually kinda spur of the moment
<_sodium> i just sat down after thinking about "week in warez"
and threw the first issue togther
<_sodium> it was originaly supposed to be biweekly
<_sodium> but spook talked me into making it weekly
<_sodium> firefighters
<_sodium> is there anything they cant do?
<empty> what is your favorite part of the scene? demo ? music? ansi?
<_sodium> hrm
<_sodium> rrr
<_sodium> well i think the neatest is the demo scene .. but since i cant
make fancy intros like those finnish kids i spend my time in the
music and ansi scenes
<_sodium> im currently in oned's tracking group, Fuck Vinyl
<_sodium> and the hacking scene is kinda grinding to a halt
<empty> now that you've been around all these years has your opinion on the
scene changed?
<_sodium> the hacking scene has some nice magazines tho
<empty> GOD DAMNTIa0-42=0a43 No. *Note : this is where i relized i fucked up*
<empty> jesus..
* Logging #sodium to: [#sodium.log]
<_sodium> i think a large majority of the scene centers around IRC now..
where people treat it like the golan heights or gaza strip or something
<_sodium> takeovers
<_sodium> fights
<_sodium> people take it to personnal now
<empty> are you logging this by chance? because my fucking log didnt turn on
<_sodium> plus its gotten wierd
<_sodium> from oned's kiddie rape to tg's gay act
<_sodium> i
<_sodium> no
<_sodium> im not
<empty> damn..ill get it all.
<empty> il just redisplay it
<_sodium> how?
<empty> just scroll back up
<_sodium> k
<empty> im on a ppp
<_sodium> k
<_sodium> go on
<empty> ok..well in closing is there anything you wish to say to the readers?
<_sodium> it used to be if you said "im a fag" youd get chastized on the scene
.. now you get commended
<_sodium> yea
<_sodium> id just like to say
<_sodium> "this mag sucks"
<_sodium> no
<empty> thanks for the endorsement
<_sodium> i really want to tell people to not take the scene to seriously..
it was started by people as a hobby.. not to strategically defend irc channels
and dcc bomb rival group members
<_sodium> and yes i am aware of the irony of the past group rivals of the
early nineties
<_sodium> and how its almost the same thing
<_sodium> as IRC wars today
<_sodium> so dont mention it
<empty> anything else you want to say to aspiring artists?
<_sodium> yea.. you lucky bastards get 1000 lines to draw with.. all of us
old folk only had 50 lines with thedraw 2.0!
<_sodium> damn uppity kids
<_sodium> back in my day...
<empty> ok..well thanks for taking the time out to do this.
<_sodium> when do i get paid?
<_sodium> i am getting paid right?
<_sodium> i charge five dollars a minute
<_sodium> send it to my swiss bank account
<_sodium> ill dcc you the number
<_sodium> i need to come up with a good acronym for acrylic
<_sodium> all good groups used to have good acronyms
<empty> used too.
<_sodium> now people are lazy
<empty> not many do anymore.
<_sodium> exactly
<_sodium> uh
<_sodium> ill see
<_sodium> we're done right?
<_sodium> did you know in acrylic issue four that is you look in one of the
photos you can actually see my girlfriend smiling seductivly at you? its
amazing what you can do with gif2ansi
<_sodium> by the way everyone
<_sodium> one last thing
<_sodium> there have been some rumors that i went out with pinguino
<_sodium> please
<_sodium> i have nothing against ping
<_sodium> but i didnt
<_sodium> so stop asking me
<_sodium> im sick of getting questions like "what kinda guys does she like?"
dammit.. if you guys want her so bad hook up with her on your own time..
dont use me as a third party
<_sodium> thank you
Ok well that was the end of it..cant say it wasnt informative if nothing else
=)

ansi vs. irc and other type o shit - by Zeus II
Let's talk ansi scene. Let's talk irc. I've heard lots of ppl say
that irc is so lame, and almost everyone on it sucks, bla bla bla
and so forth. I've heard ppl say they're quitting a group because
they didn't like someone in the group's channel on irc. I've also
heard ppl saying they're going to quit the entire scene for just
that particular reason, "irc assholes". Why?! It seems damn foolish
to me quitting it all just because of faggots that don't treat you
right in some damn chat channel. Isn't ansi more than that?
To me it means a hell of a lot more - I sure as hell wouldn't
quit drawing ansi just because of that. I have proof. Not to long
ago one particular asswipe said that he wouldn't stop taking over
opium's irc channel and bothering me until I quit the group for 2
months and then joined in again. That's gotta be THE most stupid
thing I've ever heard in my life. Quit a group because of chat!??
If ansi means that little to anyone, they should go fuck their pet
hamster or something, because then they obviously don't give a rat's
ass about ansi. (Rat's ass, ha, thats funny =))
Yep, I just love it when I've finished a real long pic and just
sit there, watching it, feeling satisfied. I wouldn't trade that
feeling for no irc.
And about irc being lame - everyone says that all the time. Irc
is lame, bla bla, irc is lame. I agree. But what isn't? Is there any
way of escaping those lamers that piss us off (or mostly make us
laugh in their face), except at top-secret trading boards (and not
even THERE occasionally). I haven't found the way. I just ignore em.
And one more thing. Takeovers suck. There's no point in them.
How can anyone feel good about sitting in a channel all by himself
just to fuck it up for other fellas? Dumb...
//Zeus "ask-me-for-ansi-if-you-want-to-but-I-probably-won't-do-it" II
empty requested that i do an article for his emag zodiac, so i drew
him a nifty small ansi with out a font. i really don't know what you
want to hear from me, so i'll just talk alittle about what i see is
happening. twilight has put some spunk back into the scene, with some
great artists. i really don't know why radman doesn't like the
challenge put out by the excellence in the first two twilight packs,
could it simply be that he lost his ansi division to cool_t's
acid!ansi? i don't know and don't care that much, though the loss
came after twilight's second pack. acrylic weekly is starting to
become a popular newsletter, i see it as a somewhat unifying force
that will help us look closer to the scene week by week, rather than
monthly with pack releases. cia is going strong with pack 41 due out
in january, will cia outlast the ever decreasing size of acid? with
cia comes this unusual thing that mindcrime of blade has started with
his blade nation owns cia, witch i don't understand at all... wake up
blade is in no way a superior art group to cia. i can't follow the
logic behind this campaign. it seems that it was over, but was brought
up again in the newest acrylic weekly #4. gayness in #ansi continues
with a random kick by @wendel <--- what the hell is that? i thought
everyone agrees that wendel is a 13 year old with a mental deficiency.
another wonder of the irc ansi scene. op wars in #afganistan, #soviet
rock, #fbi takeovers, damnit i didn't start the fire.. hmm... okay
enough of my useless gibberish that's coming outta my ass.. ttyl i'm
outtie.. peace .<+++ath>
