Hamlet (Act III)

Well, here’s act III of Hamlet. It would have been done about two hours ago, but I had to go somewhere in the middle of making it, and then subway got stuck in the train station for like ten minutes for some unexplained reason. And then the train got really crowded after a few stops because of that ten-minute delay. Oh well.

Anyhow, today’s trip to Central Park was pretty bad. When we got there, after about fifteen minutes, it started raining a lot, and we were all like “oh noes it’s raining!” People started leaving randomly because they got permission from their parents. My friends and I stayed, but the weather just kept changing from sunny to rainy and rainy to sunny, and it was really annoying. It was quite bleh.

Oh man, I forgot how long this act was. I was checking sparknotes, and was like “oh wow, this is a short act, it’s only two scenes long.” Yes, it is two scenes long, but those two scenes are really really long. So long that I got lazy in the middle of making this flash and at a certain point, you will see a drop in the quality of the artwork and dialogue. If there was any to begin with, that is.

Anyway, tomorrow’s sports day, so I have no classes. We get to go to Central Park (Really really big park in the middle of Manhattan, New York), although I’ll probably just sit there doing nothing. Hooray for sitting!

For the purposes of today’s flash, pretend that Unnamed Character and Long-Haired Character are both male (Oh yeah, and Yuyuko too). Anyhow, this is act I of Hamlet, acted out by daily flash characters. If you’ve never read Hamlet and don’t mind inaccuracy and spoilers, now you can know what the first act is about! If you have read Hamlet, you can make fun of how badly I messed the scenes up! I may as well make this an ongoing daily flash thing and add acts whenever I fail to come up with any ideas for the day.

Seriously, I don’t know what I was thinking when I made this. I was all “hey, that would be funny!” but then I realized that it wouldn’t be, because I knew that something like that would probably actually happen and it would not be awesome. Yeah. Oh well, go ahead and discuss some other impractical combinations!

Pennies (and AP exams)

Here’s the flash I made two days ago about the AP exams. 48 hours have passed, so I’m guessing it’s safe to post this without getting sued. It’s not that great, as I’ve said last time: the joke is the actual test itself. I’ve kinda lost my enthusiasm for this exam after those 48 hours, so I guess I won’t be as excited to tell you what was on it.

Anyhow, for the document-based essay, the prompt was to argue for or against the abolishment of the penny. It seemed really silly for an essay topic, and a bunch of people started laughing after seeing it. What was really funny was the last document: some scanned images of pennies, heads and tails. I was just wondering how someone would even use that source to support their argument.

One of the sources was about some internet group that advocated for the “retirement of the penny”, and it was also pretty silly. There was some guy named Jeff Gore who was like “pennies waste valuable time,” yet spends his time creating a site and coming up with these calculations for how much time and money are wasted yearly by pennies, which apparently comes to $10 billion a year. The argument he makes can be found on the site (scroll all the way down), word-for-word as it was seen on the AP exam. It’s just really silly, and although pennies are annoying, I don’t like that guy’s reasoning. Anyway, I thought I wrote a pretty good essay for that prompt. I really liked it, despite how silly it was (I kinda made fun of that Jeff Gore guy a bit).

Oh well, AP exams are over for me now, which is nice. Next year, I have four AP exams to look forward to (statistics, calculus, physics, English literature). Greeeeat.

I guess I’ll update create.swf tomorrow. If you have any suggestions for new items, accessories, backgrounds, etc, and character, that’d be nice.

Edit: Oh yeah, and here’s a Touhou SRPG concept by Fawkes using characters from create.swf. Yay.
