29 October 2007: Charmed, I'm sure

I know they're trying to demonstrate there's no such thing as bad luck, but I don't think it's a good idea to shatter that mirror, then walk under the ladder...

...because breaking the mirror and walking will mean you will get mirror shards on your feet! Then you will be jumping in pain and knock the ladder off balance! The ladder will then fall on the cat which will in turn scratch your face till its red!

...which in turn will cause you to step on a crack to break your mother's back, who will then spill salt in such a way that you can't throw it over your shoulder...

EDIT: BTW...interesting how the "black cat crossing your path" seems to take on a whole new connotation(sp?) in an anthropomorphic world.

Ozy doesn't have a mother on the material plane so he should be good for crack steppage.

My brother used to believe in all those walking under a ladder, breaking mirrors = bad luck kind of things.

Hmm, now that I remember, I haven't broken a mirror or stepped under a ladder yet... pray that I never do :shock:

Do you realize what this means? New character! :shock:
Well...sort of. He actually has a name, though. That's something.

Cameron is awesome because:
-Because he has an artistic style that is both complex and minimalist. This is profound!
-He once drew me as a roadrunner. It was an actual honest to god feral roadrunner, but a roadrunner nonetheless!
-He lives in Idaho among the wilderness and stuff and I envy him for that. 3:
-He is probably one of the most personable artists on here.
-I think he's the only one of us on here who drew a fanart that made it as a guest strip on O&M. This is an accomplishment!

Not only a name, but also dialogue! And possibly the same age as Ozy and Millie? Similar height, anyway.

Also, check out those backgrounds. Third panel especially, that perspective, and those trees. Woahsome.

I also like Stevie... that was a name I always liked.

I don't believe in them, but I still don't feel comfortable walking under a ladder.

Hey, new character! (If only for a brief time.) I have a cousin named Stevie....

And yeah, I don't believe in that kind of bad luck. Anyone here who does? :P
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

I'm going to guess younger, because in my experience, very few people over the age of seven introduce themselves as "Stevie." Stevie Wonder gets away with it by being famous.

Anyway, I welcome the presence of a young domestic cat who may not be obnoxious (as opposed to Felicia's friend), but I don't expect him to show up any more often than Emily.
