You guys suck...congrats! (A Dissertation on Coloring Books)

I was a huge fan of connect the dots. Something about following the established guidelines and knowing the outcome would be the same for everybody was very satisfying at that age.

My colouring was pretty messy and likely had something to do with my horrible handwriting. I just didn’t have the dexterity. I wrote with wrist motions.

How else do you write but with wrist motions?

Coloring books are pretty cool. Me and my sis had a huge one when we were little and drew all over that thing. Also had a Super Human Samurai Syber Squad coloring book that was so awesome. Bet I could find it if I looked hard enough. Couldn’t always keep in the lines, though. I mostly drew my own stuff. I remember in 1st grade drawing Mega Man levels and playing them out on paper. Those were the days…

As far as the coloring went, they didn’t like me writing with my left hand and tried to turn me right-handed. They failed miserably. Got out of class for it though, and free play-doh.

Connect-the-dots was pretty fun too. Though I found it hard to keep straight lines on those things. Pissed me off doing that.

If I get to searching, I’ll have to dig up some of the old drawings and post 'em.

I love to color my stock charts: my MACD’s, my Bollinger Bands, my RSI’s etc.

Shut yer cakehole. If you’re so easily offended by the fact that not everything with a penis worships the ground you walk on, go whine about it in your myspace blog.

Trill: what’s the last thing you colored?

With crayolas? Hmm…Spider-Man, I think. That, or a unicorn.

Her apology doesn’t mean shit because I have no reason to apologize to any of you.

You should apologize for constantly derailing my coloring book thread.

Cry me a river.

I wish Simply Mojo would do what her avatar shows

And I wish I could put a hatchet in your skull ^^

shit which one how did she know i have a skull collection

It’s pretty obvious… SKULLppelin!

What sort of Canadian omits the u from colour.

Man I love colouring things. I did a large drawing for my band’s album artwork and coloured it in photoshop. Photoshop is pretty good for that. In terms of colouring books, I liked them when I was younger. I tried to stay in the lines but I never managed to keep all the colours in check. Maybe I should pick a couple up and see what my art skills can do now!

ps. best thread in a while.

HAI U GUISE
DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS.

Now who’s being over dramatic? lol

Yay, recognition? I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Hi. =)

Is this thread continuing my Birthday present? I’d be a happy Nissei if you all got me a textual birthday present today.

You. Get over it already. Death threats are not cool and needlessly immature, by the way.

Anyway, on the topic. I never really liked coloring much as I always went over the lines and the dissaproving looks of my teacher crushed my happyness no matter how nice I thought the drawing seemed. I wish I had been a free spirit like the rest of you.

Oh and I was also too shy to ask for other kid’s crayons when I was short a certain color, so I often substituted stuff around.
