Sitcom Laugh Tracks

Those prerecorded laugh tracks in sitcoms sure do get annoying sometimes. I wonder how many sitcoms on TV have laugh tracks from people who are actually watching the show as it’s being filmed, as opposed to using prerecorded sounds. Probably not that many at all. Anyhow, making this daily flash got me wondering… what if prerecorded laughing sound effects played in real life every time something funny (or supposedly funny) happened? Then I decided that it would be very annoying. The end.

Walfas 2-year Anniversary

It’s August 26th, and you know what that means! Well, maybe not, but I will tell you! As of today, Walfas has been around for two whole years (yes, really)! So in celebration, here is a blog post with a ton of links to posts made in the past year, just like last year’s anniversary post! Expect much reminiscing.

Touhou Merchandise (3)


The sequel of the sequel! Today, a fairly large box (at least compared to the boxes I’m used to) came in the mail from Talka, containing some nifty gifts! Probably the most awesome would be the Miyako (from Hidamari Sketch) plush! Most of the stuff is event catalogues from various Touhou events (full of circle cuts and free space drawings).

There were also a bunch of keychains and file folders (along with a drawing someone made for me at Reitaisai back in March), chocolate with Flandre wrappers, Reimu and Sakuya figures, Grimoire of Marisa and Strange and Bright Nature Deity 1 (Talka actually sent the second one over a few months ago), and… blah, there’s so much stuff and I don’t really feel like explaining all of it.

I also ended up taking way more photos than I thought I was going to. Even took pictures of the bubble wrap and the box after I went through the stuff and removed the wrapping. Picture quality is pretty bad ’cause it’s just a cellphone camera, though. Anyhow, thanks again, Talka!! (If my calculations are correct, Parsee will probably arrive soon with her jealousy)

Miscellaneous animations


Here are some random animations I’ve made in the past two weeks and haven’t posted: Alice being happy, Akari spinning around, Mils jumping, and 8pixel being a bunch of bees flying around. Akari is from ARIA, Mils is a mascot character for Miluda, and the bee is a mascot character for 8pixel (who was also mentioned here as 8bit!). Basically I made these for some people (the first two as avatars, the last two just because I felt like it), so yeah! And now I have posted them!

Videos for Aug 23, 2009

Two videos today, and both of them are part of some MikuMikuDance (3D model… thing) competition. First one is a Sakuya-themed PV, and the second one is an Overdrive parody with VOCALOID characters. And that’s about it.

There’s also the Hyper ToHo Medley which is quite nifty. (Nicosound link is here, since it’s pretty much just audio anyway)
