Discussion Topic, startingly unerotic edition.
Our Heroes:
John Egbert, Pesterchum nickname ectoBiologist. The main character of the story, and lover of terrible movies.
Rose Lalonde, Pesterchum nickname tentacleTherapist. A clever, sarcastic girl with a fascination for the eldritch and occult.
Dave Strider, Pesterchum nickname turntechGodhead. A cool dude among cool dudes and master of beats and rhymes.
Jade Harley, Pesterchum nickname gardenGnostic. A cheerful, optimistic gal with strange hunches and insights, as well as a narcolepsy problem.
Together, these four children embark on a grand adventure. While it has humble beginnings, it soon grows out of control into an epic struggle against mighty, fearsome foes, with several quirky allies joining in along the way. To discover how their story unfolds, follow the link below...
Also, what's the current page number at? When I started, it was like 6600-something, but I have no idea what it is now or how much more I still have to go.

I had a chat with a friend earlier who said he hadn't had a chance to catch up on Homestuck in a while. I told him that it seemed that there was a 3.14159...4% chance that he wouldn't get this reference. He's been feverishly trying to catch up until he does.

I told him that it seemed that there was a 3.14159...4% chance that he wouldn't get this reference. Just so you know, you flipped that. It should be that there was a 3.14159...4% chance that he would get this reference. Cause 3% is a really small chance.

Whoops, mistake in my post. I'm pretty certain I did tell him that there was a 3.14159...4% chance that he *would* get it, but typed the wrong thing here. In my defense, I had talked to the friend shortly after the update, but made that post here after being awake for nearly 19 hours.

From: kevwaffles | #028 For characters that commonly argue, Dirk and AR are far superior when they aren't arguing with each other.
That might be a first for Homestuck.
Man, what are you on kevwaffles? The more Autoresponder chats with Dirk the better he gets. Seriously, it's like night and day between these last few pages and Dirk's previous stuff.
I like Dirk's interaction's with Jane, like when he explains the various depths of irony or puppet ass. When he plays the straight man to Roxy or AR he is just too straight at times.

I'd be very disappointed if someone would not be able to figure it out.

I'm starting to think I'm the only person that actually likes UU and looks forward to her pesterlogs. Guess I'm just a sucker for positivity and exposition.

Exposition is fine when Hussie takes the time to do it properly and it serves as being exposition while still feeling like a conversation between actual characters. But Acts 5 and parts of 6 have been so exposition heavy that you can see where he starts to slip and the pesterlogs just feel like they're trying to get as much plot as possible out of the way instead of actual dialogue.
UU is pretty much the latter example there. An exposition robot hidden behind a souless facade of cutesy emoticons.
....okay I might be exaggerating a little here but it's still true to a degree
