I do have to say that this gives some interesting new views on Pintsize, and I can actually see some of it too. Pintsizes first comment to Marten was that if he was feeling depressed perhaps he could download some cheerful porn, maybe the porn stuff started out with him thinking 'well, it helps provide release and makes people happy' and then he started looking at it as a means to help Marten and it all kind of snowballed.

I strongly reccomend that we daily check our walrus slots to ensure that we are able to avoid walrus backup.

Is it cold in here?

Good point. He used to do other things in his spare time.

  • The distilled essence of Mr. James Beam himself.

Like trying to make a cake - well, at least he made some batter


Looking at that, it seems to be pre-made cake mix, so forget I said anything.

And here I always pronounced your name Who-k in my head. Damn French lessons.
Yeah, I didn't realize it was J.W. Houk until I saw your Twitter, I too thought it was J. Whouk. (Although to be honest even when I knew it was Houk I still thought it rhymed with "spook".)

A wonderful webcomic by Zach Weiner.  And Mr_Rose, I'm pretty sure it's called an underscore.  (A quick trip to wiki says both are acceptable) Still, JW doesn't seem to have one.

...Mr_Rose...

No, JW doesn't.  But someone else does.  I'm pretty sure that was the point. 


I'm hoping you were being purposefully oblivious for snicks and giggles...   :angel: :psyduck:

Other than my confusion at the word "snicks"...sure, why not?  I'm pretty sure his underscore is silent, although I could be wrong.  Maybe it's unpronounceable and people leave a pause there out of respect and it just sounds silent.

Short for snickers.  Not the candy bar.  Sniggers for our UK friends.

You're not alone.

"Jeff Jacks" not "Geoff Jocks".

It's spelled "Jeph Jacques" but pronounced "Throatwarbler Mangrove".
