Hurty Elbow

Things I'd Like to See in Zero Gravity

World's Heaviest Man; Manuel Uribe Garza

He once weighed 1,218 lbs, but in space Manuel Uribe wouldn't weigh anything.  It'd be the best solution for his weight issues.

Someone Getting a Haircut While Eating Spaghetti

Hair clumps separate into individual strands, while spaghetti does the same.  Eventually someone eats their own hair in confusion, followed by the possibility of projectile vomiting.

Weeping Willows

It's kind of like that time in physics class when that one girl with the long thin hair touched that metal thing and all her hair stood up and stuff.  Then she turned into a tree.  It was depressing, but the lumberjack in class got turned on.

The Life & Times of Tim

To answer, "What happens when your girlfriend comes home before your hooker has left?" ad-man Steve Dildarian used Photoshop, an audio track and iMovie to create a short film called Angry Unpaid Hooker.  It's crude style and awkward sensibilty had a unique charm that seduced select audiences.  The Aspen Comedy festival created a category for Best Animated Short just to give it an award.  Watch it below.

Angry Unpaid Hooker is the inspiration for HBO's new animated series The Life & Times of Tim. It's the first animated series to hit the channel since Spawn.  It's also a lot funnier than Spawn.

Creator, Executive Producer and Voice Actor Steve Dildarian is also the man behind the Budweiser Lizards and Clydesdale Donkey campaigns.  His work has won over 35 Clios.  Which is equivalent to one Miss Cleo.

The Life & Times of Tim premieres 9.28.08

Pictalkies On Hiatus

The internet's not ready for talking pictures.  It prefers silent reading and pictures of boobies.

I enjoy writing and recording pictalkies so perhaps they'll be back, depending on DVD sales.  Thanks to those who watched.

Also, I started a Tumblr for links and other nonsense.
