WTF of the week: pop music.

If you know me, you know that I love music. I also have a wide range styles of music that I like, from Hollywood Undead to Lady Gaga to Hank Williams.

My issue as of late is the total and complete amount of insanity that has taken over the top 40 music. This all started with "Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster the People. Its super catchy and I just love it! My issue with the song? It is clearly about a kid killing other kids. The hell? Is that something we should be singing out loud as we drive to class or work? The second song that prove my point is "We Are Young" by Fun. I mean come its clearly talking about how he beat his lover. That is not cool. To top it off, they sang it on Glee. Don't think that I am a music Nazi. I'm not. I just have issues with songs that make mass-murder and spousal abuse an OK thing. What next? A song condoning animal abuse or rape? All set to a slow beat with a catchy hook? I really hope not.

Interesting thoughts for the weekend: I love web comics.

I have decided that my topic for today will web comics. There are a few comics that I read every time they come out. One is Least I Could Do, which updates every day. Another that is also from Blind Ferret is Girls With Slingshots. It has a lot of more girl related comics, and that is why I love it. They update Monday-Friday. An awesome, and somewhat underground comic is Slekie, a comic about a cute little fish girl ( slekie ) named Slekie, who is adopted by a human. It Updates Monday and Thursday and is created by Dave Warren. I have done some fan art for his strip in IMVU. My newest web comic read is Holiday Wars, a comic about, well, war within the holidays. No not people fighting over the Holidays, but the holidays themselves fighting. Updates are every Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. I love it so much that I take part in talking about it in the comments. Yet another great comic is Nerf This. Its cute, funny, and Scott Ferguson, the comic writer and artist, is just so funny in the comments section as well as the comic its self. All New Issues is another comic I have only started reading as of late. I like it a lot, though if that were not the case, I would not be talking about it, nor would I keep reading it. All New Issues updates Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Last but not least is Questionable Content. Its a very funny comic that I loved the first time I read it. Well folks, that is the list of web comics that I read every week. Check them out, perhaps you will like some of them. Also if you know any web comics that you think I should check out, leave a link in the comments and I would be more than glad to check it out.
