D'oh. Forgot to post these before, for some reason. Here they
are for you people who are lazy or don't want to view websites
for some reason or like to read my comments.

This is actually how -I- feel sometimes. However, I don't yell at people,
only Nerd Boy might be crazy enough to do that. The strip started out as
a diddle. I wanted to draw someone with long hair, and after lots of goofy
hairstyles, this was the one I came up with. Then it turned into a "Nerd
Boy with attitude" strip; a continuation from NB233-236.
</238>

<239>
Here I wanted to point out the change in Nerd Boy's attitude. -It- turned
into a Fan Boy joke, and there's a hidden little joke there for NIN fans
who have all of the lyrics memorized.
</239>

<240>
Pretty straightforward. This was actually the end of NB239 originally IIRC,
but it got too long and now it's its own strip. One joke spread a bit thin,
if you ask me.
</240>

<241>
Feeling that the last few strips didn't have enough art, I decided to draw
something a bit bigger. Originally, I was going to have Nerd Boy say "Don't
even try, punk." Then the monster would become fixed in mid-air from fear.
However, that would clearly be a big waste of a nice character, so I made a
story arc out of it instead. Then I got tired of the whole thing and had a
lot of other stuff to do, hence the two months or so of non-productivity.

He thinks he knows what he wants. He should open his eyes; he won't
like what he sees.

Well, it's not from Broken Machine... is it?

But I like the song; saw a clip of the music video for it, and that's a damn
cool video - Trent Reznor hacking up the bushes with a sword  :o)

It's from the Lost Highway soundtrack, and it's "Broken", not "Broken
Machine". :)

Actually, no. It's just a testament to stuff in general. If I had to
point out a single event that kinda matches the strip, that story
wouldn't be about me. So who cares? :)

And not even one of the better ones.  Go down to your local sound shop
and get what ever they have.  Listen to everything he ever did a few
hundred times, unless you have a history of mental depresion in which
case you might want to stop after 50 times and seek theripy before
continuing.  

And I am sure you have heard more than just that one song.  

"Head Like A Hole" was on MTV back in 1989.
In 1995 they where playing "Closer" which has the famous "I want to
fuck you like an animal" line.
They played "Hurt" a few times
Then came the "Perfect Drug" and even a mention of it on some show
about how much money the spend makeing videos because of the large
freezer they made to get the frost of his breath on film.
3 or so years ago they played "We're in This Together" live at the MTV
music awards just before "The Fragile" was released.
And a bit after that they played "Star Fuckers" which had Mayrlin
Manson in it.

Now those don't encluded all of the stuff they used to play during
Headbangers ball and 120 minutes.  Thats just the prime time stuff
there.

Now for much of that time I activly avoided TV so that even if I owned
one I never plug it in or it was in storage.  I gave my TV away not to
long ago after not pluging it in more than once in 8 months to watch
something on PBS.  The damn thing

No if a person with as little TV time as my self has seen NIN on MTV
then I know that you have heard far more than one song by them in 14
years.

why have you watched British MTV so much?  I mean, since you're
responding to a Brit, you're talking about the TV he gets to see,
right?

Haven't you heard?  Because of media consolidation and the exportation
of American music to the rest of the world every place is the same and
sees the same stuff.  :)

Any way, like I said, even with my limited TV experiance in the last
decade I have seen just about everything they have shown of NIN with
out extending any effort.  I am sure that he saw and heard many NIN
items that just did not register on the radar as being NIN

I just had this vision of Nerd Boy coverd in hope and Vaseline.  Will
Nerd Boy ever fix this broken machine?
But the hole he is watching never used to be his

I feel like Nerd Boy is just watching his hopes burn in his steady
systematic decline. 

I wonder what it will take him to make him realize
What it will take him to see the light.


/* note to self.  But smashing pumkins back in the cron file,  You
have been listening to way to much NIN lately. 1.6 Gig of NIN mp3s is
a lot of NIN. */
