After being almost sued for using Crackerjack Nation as the title of my comic, I returned to the strip's original name, Sausage Fest. Of course, this means I'll have to purchase "sausage-fest.com" before someone else does and makes it into a gay-porn site.
As of now, I've been thinking about some designs for the site itself. With the help of my friend Nicole, she suggested I should incorporate a sausage/pork motif on the site, specifically sketches of pigs and anatomical drawings of pigs -- you know, the ones that depict which parts of the body are used for what food.
Browsing through Google's Image Search with the word "sausage" while at the same time talking to Nicole via AIM, we happened to stumble upon the following images. Next, we simply IMed each other the location of the sausage-related pictures. Now, in order to bolster the symbolism of each picture, I've decided to include our actual AIM conversation.
MY CONVERSATION WITH NICOLE
Me: nicole, WHEN ARE YOU COMING TO GE? Me: by and by, my internet connection at home sucks so i may or may not get anything you send me. Me: okay, i'm back. Me: and the connection is better. Me: so, hola. Nicole: are you at home? Me: yah. Me: you? Nicole: you know it. Me: awesome. how goes it? Nicole: oh tons of fun. Me: heh. Me: so if you read jeff's away message, it says "around the apartment" Me: he doesn't have an apartment... Nicole: yeah i saw that. Me: i find it quite humorous. Nicole: it's something alright. Me: i need money. Me: shit, i owe you some cash. Nicole: me too. Nicole: for what? Me: gas. Me: i shalt give thee someth. Me: hey, have you heard of absinthe blind? Nicole: yes. Me: what are they called now? Nicole: i don't know. Nicole: i worked with the dad of some of those people last year. Me: pat doran tried getting the phone number of the female singer. Me: she typed it in her cell, but closed it without saving. Nicole: maybe she did it on purpose. Me: yeah, i think she did... Nicole: http://www.iwantoneofthose.com/TWIVAR_LURV.htm Me: oh wow. Me: i want one of those. Me: well, if i had a girlfriend or was sexually active. Me: the girl in the pic looks a lot like caroline. Me: i was actually looking for a pig motif - as per your suggestion - for the comic site, and i found this:
Nicole: that's really funny. Nicole: but not what you were talking about. Me: no, it is not. Me: i've also found piglets lying atop naked women, too. Nicole: weird.
Nicole: that's so cute. Nicole: i wanted a pet pig when i was little. Nicole: a little pot bellied one.
Me: don't they grow up to be fat? Nicole: there you go i found it. Nicole: yeah but they're short. Me: that's not an edible pig. Nicole: says who? Me: says the general public. Me: maybe in your family you eat guinea pigs... Nicole: maybe we do. Me: maybe. Me: we eat dogs in the philippines, if that makes you feel better... Nicole: it doesn't . Nicole: but thanks.
Me: wow. Me: hahaha.
Me: that looks like a turd. Nicole: ewww/ Nicole: you're gross. Me: i thought that was the point you were trying to make across.
Nicole: that's perfect of jeff. Me: i'm not too sure what's going on there. Me: and frankly, i'm even more disgusted. Nicole: i know. Nicole: i'm going to have nightmares now.
Me: HAHAHAHA.
Nicole: you should post all of these on your website. Me: i think i will :-) Me: are you using google?
Nicole: i think i just had a heart attack. Nicole: that scared me. Me: hahaha.
Nicole: you're finding lots of asian sausages. Me: it's weird. Me: speaking of which...
Me: haha.
Nicole: PHIL. Nicole: that is INappropriate. Nicole: i'm telling your mom. Me: heheh. Me: go ahead, she's at work. Nicole: well i'll call. Me: 630.545.4100 Nicole: ok i can't look at anymore sausages. Nicole: i might become anorexic. Nicole: are you on two screennames? Me: why yes, i am. Nicole: ok i was confused. Me: i'm checking out who is blocking me and who is not. Nicole: got it. Nicole: is anybody blocking you? Me: no, i don't think so. Me: i just figure a lot of people are off somewhere without computers. Nicole: yeah. Nicole: ok i'm done with the computer. Nicole: i'll talk to you later. Me: alright, lata. Nicole: bye.
The end. Oh, I'm back in Chicago.
