Hey all. This week has been devastating for my best friend, his wonderfully amazing cat "Cheddar" passed away this Tuesday morning due to an infection that he couldn't fight as he had FLV. Would be the world if we could get Matt to draw a photo of Cheddar that I can frame for Ryan. If you all could help get my post known by some retweets, I'd love you all forever. https://twitter.com/PurpleCircuit/status/571352868529299456

@Prof - How about on the iceberg that caused the Titanic to sink?

Thanks Creeper...it's rough especially since there's a new baby due early May and since my wife is a school librarian she doesn't get paid over the summer...I need to find a job that pays well enough to support us over the summer. It's going to be tight for sure!
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-27T12:11:17-05:00
@Nicole - Sorry to hear about your friend's cat. I know its so hard to lose a pet. Matthew isn't on here very often, but I saw you tweeted him - so he'll see it. Not sure he's doing many requests anymore, but hopefully he'll help!
Nicole 2015-02-27T12:12:33-05:00
@The Creeper
Yeah, I was hoping it would be something he'd do in his spare time. It's been a rotten week and I know Ryan loves The Oatmeal/is a backer of the game and would definitely help with the grief.

@The Creeper, that's a darn excellent idea!!
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-27T12:13:55-05:00
@Nicole- it's sweet of you to try to give him a nice gift.
dns12999 "Dave The Quack" 2015-02-27T12:14:10-05:00
Creeper did you get my email?
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-27T12:14:30-05:00
@Prof F - Also - you get to claim that you made Leo sink, breaking the hearts of women everywhere.
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-27T12:15:09-05:00
@Quack - not yet, but there's usually a little delay with the kittencorps

wooooooow, I love it!

@Creeper But apparently the Oscar judges wouldn't care!

I would have preffered to say I hate it just to claim it anyway, but it would have sent the wrong message
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-27T12:17:41-05:00
And for the record- THEY BOTH COULD HAVE FIT ON THAT DAMN PIECE OF WOOD.
dns12999 "Dave The Quack" 2015-02-27T12:19:03-05:00
creeper they would have both fit but it wouldn't have floated with the weight of both of them
...For a second I was lost as to the topic at hand...then hearing he would have died of exposure I realized it was Titanic.
dns12999 "Dave The Quack" 2015-02-27T12:27:18-05:00
Creeper I sent the email again thought there shouldn't really be that much of a delay. You could email me instead at DaveTheQuack@KittenCorps.com
Melissa "The Creeper" Nicole 2015-02-27T12:28:20-05:00
@Potatten - Trust me, I saw that one. And Cheered. Ignoring exposure comments. Because i feel like it. Also - I can't remember if I already took cold medication... i should just risk the double down, right?
dns12999 "Dave The Quack" 2015-02-27T12:29:46-05:00
Creeper you should be safe to double down though I'm a duck not a doctor!

@Creeper: Sharezies? I want a cookie....I might actually go get one on lunch.

@GCoD: I think it was Tuesday or Wednesday that he was hospitalized. He did have a good life, and left a legacy that will be hard to follow for anyone who steps into a Star Trek role.
Let it be noted I agree with F about a new villain.

I need to get me a Vulcan tattoo. I'm being serious. I've already acknowledged my horror side with a tat, now I need to do one for my Star Trek nerdy side. A small one, of course.

Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-27T13:41:32-05:00
Yes, Geist! You absolutely have to get a tat of Oats' drawing of you!
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-27T13:42:22-05:00
I don't get tats, but if Oats drew a pic of me, I'd get one

Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-27T13:46:28-05:00
Do it; that would make my day! And I'll post pics of the tat
He should have said NOPE to the Bilbo song though.
Oats doesn't draw zombies, alas.
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-27T13:47:56-05:00
And have him tweet it to @lordzombitten or email it to me at lordzombitten@kittencorps.com to make sure I don't miss it
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-27T13:49:17-05:00
He didn't say that he doesn't draw them; he listed tgem with a bunch of things he wouldn't draw for the day of requests. Among that list were ninjas and unicorns, and we know he draws those
Kevin "Lord Zombitten" Buckner 2015-02-27T13:50:12-05:00
He probably said he wouldn't draw those that day because they were being requested too much, and he wanted people to be creative
Superman and Santa are already at the North Pole, clearly it is now a hero location.
Robot Santa?
@Quack - sorry to hear about the job situation. It's such a rough thing to be dealing with. Best of luck to you.
@Dr P, let me ponder about it for a while and get back to you kind Sir
Very Well

lol Creeper. Yes, it was on Mythbusters too.
At the water temps, he would have died of exposure soon enough anyway.
Here: This is it. https://www.youtube.com/watch…
I think we need a new villain. It's been ages since the introduction of one

Where's the Doc when we need him?
Not sure where the Doc is, but the Mountain is roaming in and out. My manager is back today, so need to at least look busy.
Managers are so rude like that GM
Booooo fake busy.

Oh, man, Leonard Nimoy just died ....
RIP Mr. Nimoy
Oh fucking NO! Not Mr. Spock! *hangs head*
A legend has passed. And I thought this day was bad already.
@GCoD, WHAT?!?!?! now I'm all depressed, RIP Leonard Nimoy. This is officially one of the worst weeks I've had in a very long time...
Yeah, it's all over Twitter now, and the TV news are running with it. He'd been hospitalized last I heard ... he was 83.
A legend has passed. And I thought this day was bad already
I would like to co-sign on this
I can think of a few people who should have gone into the hereafter before Leonard Nimoy. I swear to you, life is so f*cking unfair.
@GCoD: I think it was Tuesday or Wednesday that he was hospitalized. He did have a good life, and left a legacy that will be hard to follow for anyone who steps into a Star Trek role.
@Geist: I'm sure we all have lists a couple miles long of people who should be sent into the long sleep before people who brought joy to the world.
I've been re-watching ST:TOS this past few weeks with SO#1 -- this will change all my perceptions as I re-watch them.
I want to cry so badly but people keep coming into my cubicle. I am having a drink in honor of Mr. Nimoy.
Let it be noted I agree with F about a new villain.
@GM: Mine isn't a mile long. Only a few names but these are miserable folks who haven't contributed diddle to society and are just fecking mean to boot.
R.I.P. Mr. Spock, you green blooded, pointy eared heart throb you.
I just read about Nimoi too. What a pity
Mine includes mass groups that are making the world a cesspool(more so) of hatred.
I feel the strong desire to watch Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan... and drink...
Yeah, where's a Genesis Planet when you really need one?
and drink...
I'll be doing plenty of that after work.
I wonder if a bagpiper will play Amazing Grace at his funeral?
Btw, welcome back Pr.F and Historian.
@GCoD: Oh how I hope so.
Hopefully Deforest was waiting to greet him. "Why you pointy-eared, green-blooded ...
@GCoD: LOL! Oh how I will miss that. Nothing against the new crew but the original actors will have a special place in my heart.
Tss shame. Rest in peace.
LLAP up there.
Childhood legends go away but the dumb ones are to stay.
Sad day...
Childhood legends go away but the dumb ones are to stay.
Sadly, this is true.

Holy crap! There is such a thing a Vulcan Calligraphy? Look like I'm going to have to get a bigger tat then I thought.
That's nice! Watcha gonna write?
Just get the Vulcan phrase for LLAP tattooed. Dif-tor heh smusma
Shaped like a hand if possible
That's a damn good tattoo too. I wanted a stupid phoenix. Almost the same :)
Or he wanted a variety. It's no fun to draw the same thing again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again
@GCoD: Good idea!
Um, did you just speak Vulcan?
