To Make Room For The Cupcake

OK, this week­end, I’ll tackle one of the more involved Form­Spring ques­tions. For now, here’s another short one:

“Do you still have GIR and where is it now?”

For those of you who don’t know, one of my favorite car­toons is Invader Zim and I have big pil­low of GIR, a char­ac­ter from the show. It looks some­thing like this:

Except my ver­sion didn’t have an ice cream cone. Every­one in the dorms love to fon­dle it (the bulging eyes can be cupped sug­ges­tively) and Ali­son W would often bor­row it for extended peri­ods of time.

I do still have GIR. He’s in a box in my room with a bunch of other stuffed ani­mals. I never unboxed them because my bed is smaller now and I’m try­ing to declut­ter my room.

Any­way, if you haven’t seen Invader Zim, you should def­i­nitely check it out! I have the DVDs if you want to bor­row them, or you can find the whole series… else­where online. (You should also check out Johnny The Homi­ci­dal Maniac, a comic book by the same writer, Jho­nen Vasquez.)

Incom­ing search terms:

My front page is noth­ing but the music meme. Time to get some more posts up. I’m sit­ting on a longer one, but for now, I’ll answer another Form­Spring question:

“What is the answer to the ulti­mate ques­tion of life, the uni­verse, and everything?”

42!

If there is an Ulti­mate Answer, it’s prob­a­bly some­thing hyper­di­men­sional that will lit­er­ally blow my mind if I were to ever find out. (Sim­i­lar to Cthultu’s name. Hmm…) Or maybe it will be the key to enlight­en­ment and nir­vana.

But in any case, I’m not Reed Richards, Fran­cis Way­land Thurston, or the Dalai Lama, so on a more prac­ti­cal level of daily liv­ing, I’d like to think that mean­ing is cre­ated, not dis­cov­ered, since that’s the dif­fer­ence between free choice and des­tiny. Sim­i­lar to evo­lu­tion, there is no “ulti­mate goal” state or form, there’s just us try­ing to be the best we can.

Ali­son W, I’m skip­ping your first ques­tion because I don’t have the time to write up a deserv­ing post here at work. Also, I’m pretty sure my visual aids are con­sid­ered NSFW.

But I’ve been dying for some­one to ask me your sec­ond Form­Spring question,

“What is your favorite color?”

Because I can quote one of the best movies of all time:

And like Sir Lancelot, my favorite color is blue. (Although it wasn’t always, so I could also be Sir Galahad.)
