Box This Up


Deref pinged a new service called "Frappr!" that creates, in this case, a very entertaining "Where In the World Are 'Daria' Fans?" map. Feel free to join about 30 fen thus far in adding your e-push-pin, serious-or-not picture, and pearl drops of "shoutout" wisdom.

"Beavis and Butthead" is all over the damn place. First on MTV2 (with a marathon this weekend), and now, from reports, at Comedy Central. Get it together, Viacom! Your best animated creation is languishing at The N, now having anywhere from none to three "Daria" episodes a night, at times spread all over a three-hour graveyard shift. {here endeth today's rant}

At the PPMB:

~ New art from Christ Oliver: Three alter egos that should have been!

~ The Angst Guy's "Green" monster-thing-ish story has part 5 posted.

~ RLobinske has reached part 9 of "Accidental Future."

~ New Iron Chefs include "New Year's Resolutions" and one that suggests dealing with pseudo-random computer-generated text. (Or the result of too much under-education about English in Ms. Li's type of lockdown, er, school. I can't tell 'em apart ...)

~ MsHand has two parts of a new angstfest, "Priceless."

~ M. Anon's "Better Homes and Housemates" has marriage cracks spreading faster after part 6.

~ More thoughts on "The Daria Temporal Analysis Project."

~ The apparently eternal debate over Lawndale's location has started up again, with interesting notes on the conundrum from Mike Xeno and others.

~ Wouter depicts a charming bit of Hallowe'en dress-up by Daria, which made Quinn faint away. Too much evidence of a "geek sister" having imagination for her to handle, eh?

At the SFMB:

~ DJW's "Dammitall Run" has part 6 posted.

~ Sleepless has an unsettling comic vignette, "Best Friends, Forever and Ever." It takes off from the end of "Boxing Daria."

~ Ostragoth has a wryly comic bit with Daria and Quinn trying to outdo each other "At the Harvest Festival." Doesn't anybody ever audit Ms. Li's books?

~ Bootstrapper has a creepily comic tale, "One Rainy Weekend." It takes off from the end of "Boxing Daria."

~ "Diary Entries" is up to 11 scenes in Chapter 2.

~ Psychotol has a new piece of art showing Daria taking off (literally) near the end of "Boxing Daria." ... Something's resonating here, isn't it? Hmmm.

Speaking of "green"ery: Everyone's had enough of hearing about Quinn's multiple dates!
