fling! whizz! bonk! An announcement.


Onomatopedia.com

Earlier today on twitter I was making some attempts at wit in regards to wikipedia (for the record, wackypedia.com and wikipediatrician.com are both unavailable). A couple of comments later, cartoonist Pat Lewis sez: "Not sure if you're interested, but onomatopoedia.com is still available."
That got me thinking, and a few hours later (and your standard Web 2.0 letter removal) onomatopedia is here. It's based on the same sort of thing I've been doing here: drawing pictures in exchange for money. There may or may not be hoboes. We'll see.
There will be some samples in the coming days, and I certainly don't think anyone should order anything before then.
This has no effect on either Kitteh or Pip. Clyde seemed upset about it though.

  1. That image to go with the title is GENIUS!

    Good thing I only said I was done buying Laugh-Out-Loud cats for a while... I can get a few of these instead! =o)

  2. This project worthless without "SPANG!" - the sound of a man getting hit in the face with a frying pan.

    In summary: SPANG!

  4. I spent half an hour thinking of funny noises. I hope people with more spare $ than I will think of the same words so I can see them!

    SPANGgggg indeed. (the extra g's are as both the man's face and the frying pan wobble and the sound of the SPANG dies away)

    There's a heck of a legacy out there for you to live up to, namely the late, great Don Martin:

    "Snap Ploobadoof" -- the sound of "Wonder Woman releasing her Amazon brassiere."

    Good times, good times...
