So I've been writing the social media blurbs for my SO's craft business thing. Everyone else thinks it's better than what they can come up with, so they've put the awkward spaniard in charge of the writing...

Anyway, my wife's product descriptions on her Etsy page are kinda boring. For example, a Cthulhu-inspired key she made very early on had a description akin to "Carry Cthulhu with you! Perfect for eclectic geeks and nerds alike!" I decided to improve it, because I'm bored.

This tentacle-green pendant was created by one of our artists during a feverish dream; they were trapped in a dark ziggurat of endless corridors, haunted by faceless man-beasts that slithered about and cried with the sound of a thousand hoarse throats. Their only means of escape was to craft an amulet and beseech help from beyond.

They awoke, covered in strange mixture of bile and honey, with this key in their fist.

At any rate, the artist hasn't slept since, so they don't need the Old One's protection anymore. Do you need an amulet of power? Afraid to step into rooms with corners for fear of They Who Dwell Beyond? Is your local Elder God cult unhappy with your lack of accessories? If so, you're in luck!
Wonder how many of these I can make before they change their mind :awesome:
 
Everytime I watch Ultimate Spider-man while cleaning I gain a micro-aneurysm. Really Cloak and Dagger? You REALLY thought breaking supevillains out of a maximum security prison was a GOOD idea? And yeah, GREAT idea letting Vulture escape and not face his crime's Spidey, because THAT is what a hero does.

Is it really that good? I was prejudiced against it and never watched it because of the premature ending of Avengers:EMH, and hearing from other people that Assemble wasn't as good.
 
My kids watched it and it really was a great show, but I also like Ultimate Spider-man. The second his high school had a Prinicipal Coulson and Stan the janitor, I was all in.

I could never get into Ulimate Peter Parker in the comics. I don't know what it is, but I just did not like him.

Well let me just say that a smart intelligent highly paid professional watches it in earnest.

I just couldn't get into the majority of the Ultimate comics line in all honesty. "What if Scorpion, Tarantula, and Spider-Woman were all Spider-man's CLONES? What if Scarlett Witch and QuickSilver fucked each other and no-one treated it as the crime against nature it was?" Yeah, NOBODY asked those questions, especially the former which just fucks with the origin which doesn't matter as long as the character is thematically the same.

I'm going to be honest: I've had no vacation to speak of this year with a major project deadline (multimillion dollar) in October, and my vacation is finally coming next weekend until the end of the year. I have vacationitis so bad, I basically farted around about half the day today. Especially since I couldn't sleep for some reason last night.
