page 908 – A Nice Quiet Breakfast
I’m more proud than I should be of thinking up “Gummy Chairs”. I am also really sleepy right now. The two are probably related.
So, originally, the joke here was going to be Stilez and Tax being amazed that their source of food from the previous day is actually fully stocked AGAIN today, since they’re used to everywhere they go turning into an abandoned field of rubble once they make their presence known. But then I remembered that they didn’t USE the vending machines before, Tabitha just brought the food right to them. And THEN I realized the funny part was just Stilez tearing the machine open because she doesn’t realize there’s other ways of removing the contents. The creative process at work.
Okay, so I… THINK I’ve got the new Voting Incentive up and running… but it’s a bit hard to be sure. Apparently, at some point over the course of the night, Photobucket and Firefox decided they no longer like each other, and suddenly I can’t see any images hosted on Photobucket anymore. The site itself still works, and I could load the Incentive onto there fine, but I can’t actually SEE the incentive… or the Far Out There banner or any of the various buttons that are currently being hosted on that site. At least, I can’t see any of it ON FIREFOX. When I visit on Chrome or Safari, everything loads just fine. I have no idea if something’s gone wrong with Photobucket, or if a Firefox update went bad, or if it’s just some plugin of mine going wrong and I’m the only person in the world with this problem or what. The point is, if you’re reading this right now and you can’t, say, see the normal Far Out There banner at the top of the page, fire up another browser before you go to TWC and vote, or you might not be able to see the new Incentive …and it’d be a shame if you missed it, ‘cos there’s a sneak peak of things to come!
(Historical Notes: Um, Past Me? You didn’t come up with “Gummy Chairs,” that’s a Gravity Falls reference. You came up with “Gummy FEET.” Stop trying to make words and go to bed. Speaking of which, WOW that’s a big paragraph of words that mean absolutely nothing to anybody four years later. Maybe losing the original commentary on some of these pages isn’t such a bad thing.)
Um… I’m sorry to tell you this, but Gummy Feet are a real thing. I mean, sure, you may not have seen them, but I certainly have, and if you Google it, you can see them. They’re fairly small, and typically flat, but they still exist and have patterns recognisable of toes on them.
Meh, figures. I’m actually way less annoyed at that than if this really HAD been a Gravity Falls reference that I’d forgotten about.
