Do you do design for a living?

(Peter_G, Wed 12 Aug 2009, 23:55, archived)

yes and no

I work 9-5 with computers doing 3d stuff for "the man", not in the whizz bang world of design/advertising or super coolness. But it pays most of the bills so I can't complain.

This is my serious statement:

This is utter fucking win! Top fucking draw/drawer Toasty!

You are supremely pwning this compo bar Archie's entry with the stamp!

(

Redsushi! Whoop! Whoop! Yes, that one!, Wed 12 Aug 2009, 23:26, archived)

I think we should take bets on who'll win, Archie, Toast or BoBoDoor

It's a three horse race at this stage, but no appearance from Manic yet...

I've drawn fluffy, my bets are that this will be won by clever

I'll stick 1,000,000 moon credits on HappyToast each way please,

and 1,000,000,000 Interglactic dollars on Archie each way please.

I CAN'T LOSE!

I do love BBD's stuff, but I don't suspect that it will be as easily "viewed" as Archie and Toasty's. What would be ace is this pic from toasty, with Archie's on the back as a postcard dropped through letterboxes.

(

Redsushi! Whoop! Whoop! Yes, that one!, Wed 12 Aug 2009, 23:29, archived)

the people that the people will think they want to appeal to will get BBdO

but I think they need to go more mainstream to encourage the idiot masses to take a care in whats going on.

if the masses are idiots, why shouldn't politicians steal their money?

Aye, that is why I suggested you and Archie over BBD.

Okay, I'll give you odds of 10/11 on both of them.

Now I can't lose.

Yes you can.

If I win, you have to pay back my original stake too :P

Trust me, Beau Bo (Carte) d'Or will pull something out of this which is epic, AND has mass appeal

Possibly, and highly probably.

But as I said earlier, this is a long race. I expect that certain people who one might not expect will come up with some stunners. I think it is gonna be the best compo since Crabs vs. Elephants.

Come down and check them out mate

Without wanting to sound to pessimistic, there only about three hundred of them left in the wild, which I guess means their moment is up in the great time scale of things; whilst these additions to their gene pool has been critical, we are going to need a minor miracle to reintroduce them back into anything remotely resembling their former habitat, which is simply going to come into conflict with humans. So twilight's peak for this species :(

The current head of the Bird section used to jump the fence into the zoo aged fifteen every weekend

because he loved the place so much. So when he later applied for a job, this was naturally noted; and he now, decades on, now runs a complete section

and when you speak with Mick regarding avians, the passion and enthusiasm simply is there to behold! No one one really works here for glory, just utter devotion to conservation, certainly not our saleries

It's quite nice :)

Without sounding like someone who is on a downer on young people,

yes. It is. You haven't realy experienced the effect of governments as yet I assume, and nor should you have.

However, as the old maxim goes, from small acorns do great oak trees grow. No, you won't see a change overnight barring a miracle/catastrophe. However, by spreading the word, you can make a difference.

You for example could go away and talk to a few friends about it who get it, they could go and talk to a few friends who get it, etc, etc. The biggest problem that people have today, not just young people, old people are the same is the apathy and the acceptance of the Status Quo.

If it weren't for us just accepting it, there would be no Francis Rossi or Rick Parfitt.

Jokes aside, yeah, it might not work, but wouldn't it be better to fail trying to do something you believe in than to never even bother and bitch and moan about how things are?
