OMGJ News Update – August 31, 2010: Fat News From Fatty Central

by STAFF

Hey, squirts! We thought you might be interested in a little brief news update of sorts for a change. Usually we don’t really tell you what we are getting into or implementing; we don’t share our hopes or our dreams. We apologize. Although maybe it was a little fun for you to stumble onto this site and see that Jeremy has made yet another redesign, or Amanda started doing comics again, and then quit. Again. Writers come and go, activity waxes and wanes, attitudes change erratically. I’m sure we’ll go back to being uncommunicative some day soon, but for now: WE WILL SHARE!

Increased Frequency of Content

We discussed it a little some days ago, and decided that it would be nice if we could have updates five days a week. Our plan was to save up material and start this mighty plan in a month or two. Then for some reason we started last week, instead. We do hope you can appreciate this extra effort, and we are certainly going to try to deliver both quantity AND quality, such that it is. Our staff of writers is at an all-time low, and yet we seem to wish to make productivity reach an all time high! How long can we keep it up? How soon will we burn out? Which one of us will go postal from overwork and murder the others in cold blood first?? I am personally most worried about that Jeremy P. He seems like a remorseless killer type.

A Little Bit of Order Is Making an Appearance

Along with the increase of updates, we have decided to categorize our stuff a bit. We reason that this will make updating easier on us all, quotas should be more easily met.

Mondays will feature a new article concerning a miscellaneous topic as well as one of those little rinkydink AIM Comics Amanda likes to make. Tuesdays will have News Updates such as this one when needed, group efforts, reader submissions, some more miscellanea perhaps. Wednesdays will remain “Humpday Gaming” days. Thursdays will be days for some of Amanda’s old style of Unicorn Valley comics, both old ones and she seems to keep swearing that she means to make new ones. Also more reader submissions, perhaps a Youtube video feature or advice columns if we can generate an interest. Fridays will remain a time for movie reviews, and soon also music reviews. I imagine that the schedule will be slightly open and flexible, just like we like ‘em.

Amanda’s first reaction to order was a smile. This will probably be the final reaction, however.

There Are Other Things Too

As if we weren’t keeping ourselves busy enough with this New Way, this New System, we are also keeping a “tumblr,” updated sporadically throughout most days. Please, enjoy it. It has a little behind-the-scenes footage and bonus complaints. Also, our Facebook page is … well it is “going.” We seem to keep forgetting that it exists. There is talk of a possible future podcast, as well. As always, we have been discussing the possibility of merchandise (shirts, artworks, cards, trashy novels), the idea of running “contests,” and other important things of that nature. We have so much on our plates that by the time this is through we are going to be SO FAT. And so are you, friends.

A Simple Request

Some of the OMGJ Ladies are considering creating an advice column for you sad boys out there seeking information about women in order to soothe your weary souls. They are expert at being girls, and at being misogynistic, so you will probably be able to relate with them. They also have no problem with revealing lady secrets, so they will happily tell you what they believe that horrible hussy you are trying to involve yourself with REALLY thinks. So if you have any questions, any at all, about the nature of women and what makes them tick, please feel free to write to: omgladies@gmail.com

Hopefully they will cure what ails you in the future. Probably in the form of one short column every few weeks. That is unless you turn out to know it all already. If you are too shy, don’t worry. They probably won’t shame you.

While We’re At It

Readers, this is probably a good time to ask you to please pipe up with your opinions on our change of energy here. Did you even WANT to read content every week day? Is there anything about this that makes you uncomfortable? If so, I am sure one of us will consent to sitting you on their knee and coddling you until you are no longer upset. Although Old Man Holiday might get out the whipping switch. You know how old men get so riled up over being questioned.

  • Damn right! I would love new content every day. Not that I’ve ever held it against you for not having daily updates; but the more OMGJeremy, the better, as far as I am concerned.

  • Amanda

    God I am willing to keep doing this if only to make soarfingers happy. GO, TEAM!
