Oh it’s been getting so hard
Living with the things you do to me
Well things are getting so strange
I’d like to tell you everything I see

Oh, I see a man in the back as a matter of fact
His eyes were as red as the sun
And the girl in the corner that no one ignores
Cause she thinks she’s the passionate one

Oh Yeah! It was like lightning
Everybody was frightening
And the music was soothing
And they all started grooving

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah-Yeah-Yeah
And the man in the back said everyone attack
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said boy I want to warn you

It’ll turn into a ballroom blitz

You have to be careful when you rock that hard.  Sometimes when you rock that hard, you accidently rock your face off.

Do YOU rock this hard?  You might need to say so on a shirt.  Contact me if you want one (it’ll go in the store when there’s a store, which will happen when enough people bother me about it AND/OR I finally get around to it).

It’s true, graphic designers do have terms for everything.  It’s a fun little world to play in.  Sometimes, clients and projects can take your ideas and crush them.  Things like bad communication, the 20th round of edits (“this one’s the FINAL final round”), and budgetary constraints can all take a fun, fascinating, creative job like graphic design and make you wonder why you’re not in accounting.

She’s a friend and she asked nicely, so here it is.  She changed formats, and is still drawing comic craziness.  Go read it.

Dear Ryan Estrada,

Today, you appear to be featuring guest comics on upwards of 100 webcomics.  However, the wonderfully funny, irreverent, and never disappointing smash hit The System (http://www.systemcomic.com/).  I am not one to criticize, but I think this was a rare opportunity that was sorely missed.  Our readers (or “Systemics” as I have dubbed them), are an amazingly talented and crafty bunch, who would have greatly appreciated a comic that combined their love of myself and this comic with your famed “Ryan Estrada take” on things.

If you choose to rectify this, please let me know.

Sincerely,
Rosscott

PS Nice job.  You’re everywhere today.

Dear Coffee,

I love you.  You’re the one who’s with me every night and every morning.  I don’t know what I’d do without you.

Yours always,

Rosscott

Do you picture these people with names?  Do they have faces?  How do they sound when they speak?  Are they more or less real than the other characters in your life?

On another note, quick question.  Where is the most uncomfortable place to have a pimple?  Let’s open up for real, people.  I know it isn’t pretty, but it’s life for you.  Life happens sometimes, and all you can do is be honest about it.  My least favorite is probably my ear.  Yes, really.  Got a pimple in my ear.  It sucked.  Then again, I had one INSIDE MY NOSE once.  How does that even happen?  Anyway, I’ll probably regret this but I’m asking anyway for yours.  Let’s commiserate, eh?
