]]> Comment on Today teh internets giveth by briznack http://briznack.wordpress.com/2008/04/30/today-the-internets-giveth/#comment-47 briznack Fri, 02 May 2008 15:00:58 +0000 http://briznack.wordpress.com/?p=42#comment-47 Thanks so much for that link! I had never heard of TronGuy before. He is a dreamboat. Aside from the endless hilarity, there is some interesting research that could be done here, as the article hints at. I did notice that the etymology of LOLspeak is unclear. Though the words were invented sometime in the past 4 years, their origin is still unclear. What does that say about older words and their etymologies? I thought that was kind of interesting anyway. Thanks so much for that link! I had never heard of TronGuy before. He is a dreamboat.

But the whole story line, the graphic novel, of "El Borba," from which the illustration was taken, is more reminiscent in its paranoia and dystopia of "Pi." I like the Metropolis comparison, I hadn't thought of that until you pointed it out. I should be so luck as to one day produce something worthy of a comparison to Metroplolis.
