West of an Old House, long in the Family

You are standing next to an old house.  It has large mansard roofs, big chimneys, and to the east is a formal Italianate garden with a circular courtyard, high hedges and an elaborate eighteenth-century-style trellis.

great punchline

Dude has done several of these, venting from being a PhD candidate for a while, apparently

That reminds me of this thread...
i feel like i am living in a text adventure

is homestuck actually worth bothering with? looked like too much effort tbh

I really enjoyed Problem Sleuth tho it dragged a lot in the very end. I read the "prologue" of Homestuck when it started and then lost interest and all of a sudden two years later all my nerd acquaintances were jizzing about every update and dressing up as god knows what and I just had no interest in going back to it.

i found it today. 'Too much effort' seems about right really.

i think it seems really impressive. the fandom seems like well like a fandom

The start of Homestuck is really boring. Going to attempt to persevere but... really, this has a dedicated fandom?

i was totally with it as soon as the improperly-coded inventory gag got going

there's no actual gameplay in homestuck, right?

as of a couple hours in there has been a section where i have been able to walk around the locations and examine things, but it was skippable and nothing i did could impact the plot

Yeah, it's not a game. The inventory-coding thing was an okay gag, but nothing mind-blowing. I'm just wondering how/where/why it changes into this cosplay-enabling fandom-instigating fantasia.

TG: what are you an idiot
TG: of course there are monsters in your house
TG: youre in some weird evil monster dimension come on
TG: skepticism is the crutch of cinematic troglodytes
TG: like hey mom dad theres a dinosaur or a ghost or whatever in my room. "yeah right junior go back to bed"
TG: fuck you mom and dad how many times are we going to watch this trope unfold it wasnt goddamn funny the first time i saw it
TG: just once id like to see dad crap his pants when a kid says theres a vampire in his closet
TG: "OH SHIT EVERYONE IN THE MINIVAN"
TG: be fuckin dad of the year right there

This is pretty well done but I've now made it to Recap 2 and
1. it has taken really unjustifiable amounts of my weekend, wtf am I doing
2. if a recap of material I already read makes me go "oh, is that what happened / who that is / uh I don't remember that at all" nearly every other sentence it's probably a bad sign (and part of the recap is marked "previously unseen")
3. despite 1 I'm only halfway through by # of pages and beginning to realise that it may not actually be finished yet, which is not a bad thing in itself but is going to piss me off if I spend more days wading all the way through hoping for a grand resolution

having said that there are some neat ideas in here, I like the art style, and I am curious to see what happens

(I am probably too old and earnest to be the target audience anyway - the target audience would never type something so longwinded, sincere and point-missing - but in other ways I am totally the target audience: weird RPG/adventure game mechanics, mutant time-cats, inscrutable computer systems? yes please)

on the kickstarter for the adventure game he wants to write he says he'll finish homestuck in 2013

homestuck is quenching my ever present desire to be 'with it' and 'hip with the times'

like now I think I know how whiney feels all the time??

thanks for the warning thomp! also, eh, maybe I shall throw some money at this guy's kickstarter, bcz I love adventure games and I won't even care if it's any good or not as long as it has cats in

sweet bro and hella jeff is p classic

true story, Andrew Hussie hooked up with a girl at my college that some of my friends were friends with and I think this made them all mad at her. Maybe she broke Andrew Hussie's heart?

On the other hand maybe Andrew Hussie shouldn't be dating undergrads? idk

note: this might not be a true story?

i just really don't understand why people want or like or need to identify as 'members of a fandom'

i might possibly be a homestuck 'fan' but 'a member of the homestuck fandom', i don't know

there's a girl on youtube who writes and performs a song about homestuck accompanying herself on the ukulele

but i mean, it's not that girl, it's the 1,700 people who clicked the 'like' button and not the 'schedule an intervention' button

this guy must have some celebrity from before homestuck, right? bc i mean, it's nice but is anyone really passionate about the dozens and dozens of clown jokes? maybe there's a big crossover fandom w/ juggalos.
