User blog:Aeries Vholt/Homestuck???

So one of my friends is deeply obsessed with Homestuck and she's been bugging me to read it/play it. So I decided to give it a whirl. I got deeply turned off after the first few pages. It seemed like utter crap. But then I decided to give it another go recently since I was really bored and was in the mood for something stupid. After about twenty pages it starts to get kinda interesting.

Now the pages aren't giant areas of text. A page is usually a picture and 1-5 sentences underneath.

Now I have to admit, it is quite tedious in the beginning with all the sylladex garbage and room descriptions (Like I care what John has on his freaking walls?) but once John starts to explore more of the house it gets better and funnier. Really Homestuck is just a giant gag. We have John over there complaining about his Dad's creepy clown, I mean Harlem doll, collection, we have Rose with her fancy speak and knitting who keeps referring to that creepy mausoleum, then there's Dave who is just ridiculous on so many levels (he reminds me of Draeke except Draeke can rap) and then there's that other Pesterchum I haven't quite met yet who is absolutely clueless...

Anyway, Homestuck has a plot, even if you don't see it right away. And it might not seem like the greatest plot but it's pretty entertaining. I laughed at loud at so many parts (they were mostly scenes with dave in them) and one joke I still can't get over...

What is wrong with this picture?

I crack up everytime with that.

Anyway I'm only on Act Two at the area where we begin to meet Dave so this isn't much of a review...How many Acts are there anyway? Though I'll keep going through Homestuck and I'll pretty much update my posistion on it as I go through. With that being said I think I'll conclude this blog.

Christine, still waiting for the trolls to come into the whole thing,out!
