Screening Bust and NPR toon and stuff…
Hey! As I mentioned I went to a screening of The Social Network last night. They confiscated all cellphones which sucked (You really think I really gonna sit there holding up my iphone recording the whole thing? In a special screening?)– and THEN they couldn’t get the movie to work anyway. They tried to start it up over and over and no sound no sound no sound. After 45 minutes of them trying to start the movie it was time to bail. 🙁 I’ll see it over the weekend though. Oh well. So that sucked…
In the meantime, if you wanna watch a new toon– here’s one at NPR.org!

Dude, tOdd, you are getting so good at those videos!
I love your attention to detail and the little jokes the character says. Man, you really put a lot of thought into those and it shows:
They are so funny!
Love, Z
Hey Todd, I ‘d love to read a post about the making of a cartoon. How closely did you work with the NPR guy? How about the produced gal? Did you acutally get together and edit it all? Do they send you the scientific info or a whole script? Do they pay a lot? Do you have a manager that negotiates the deal or do you handle it all?
Do tell.
Loved the toon!!
VOTE FOR GINGER 2012!
Er…. Todd…
Are you ever going to do anymore cartoons for this site?
I’ve been coming here for a very very long time but pal, you haven’t been doing much on the site for a long long long long long long long time.
The site has… evolved. So instead of a new “Laid Off” cartoon every three to eighteen months, we get to view NPR cartoons and such- you know, the stuff that pays Todd in mon-ay instead of our unending criticism. The stuff that pays the rent and puts food in Roscoe’s bowl.
Not to mention the site being a forum for a whole cast of wackos. I personally am well-entertained by the rantings and comments from the likes of Ginger, gunfever, Watermelon Man, Concerned Parent, John “Freaking” Kennedy and on and on.
So appreciate the site for what it is, not what you might remember. If not, maybe Todd can do a “Guest Cartoonist” like he does for “Guest Mov-ay Reviews”, so we can see what the critics can offer. My guess is: not much.
Even I know this, and Ihave, well, sh!t for bra!ns. What’s your excuse?
I too enjoy the comments from the posters such as Ginger, WTF!?!!, The Shadow, Mr. Hyabusa from Japan(spelling?), others. Very entertaining. Todd is a cartoonist/animator and he is following his heart on what he loves to do. The freelance work he does pays the bills. Things change – and so does Todd.
To add what I said before, Todd has even added his support for the Ginger campaign. I think it would be cool if he actually draw a cartoony version of the character, but that’s just my opinion.
Yes I think tOdd should do a cartoon on his everyday posters would love to see what he thinks we are like!
Are you a moron are do you just play one in real life?
We used to get Halloween Specials, April Fools day specials and many other cartoons.
Really hard to call the site Laid Off, if you are working so much, you don’t have the time to put together a cartoon now and then.
I’m happy he is working an paying the bills, but I am unhappy that the site is spiraling down to useless.
We used to GET? LOL!
Jbone, you’ll understand more about this when you’re an adult, but the way the internet works is that if you don’t like the content of a particular website, then you go somewhere else. It’s not Todd’s responsibility to “give” you things.
You need a reality check.
I love it when people have raging violent debates with anonymous total strangers on the internet over virtually nothing.
To sum up, the “reality check” is this: If you don’t have anything nice to say, STFU and let the rest of us enjoy it. If you don’t like it, leave. If you think for a moment that you can somehow “entertain” us better, start your own site, on your own time, and build your own damn following.
I may have sh!t for bra!ns, but even I know that last one won’t happen. Like, ever.
Better yet, stick around so we can continue to stick it to you. Ever since “gunfever” got killed, the site is lacking a representative from the retarded drunk monkey with Wigger Tourettes Syndrome demographic.
Dispute what I said moron. I said we are no longer getting cartoons and specials on the site. Fact.
I said the the site was spiraling down to useless which of course means I will stop coming.
You are the loudmouth that evidently can’t understand simple English.
A site that used to have regular content and no longer does, will inevitable die. Oh, but you keep having fun with the forums.
As I said, I am glad that Todd is working and this site helped him get that work albeit with his hard work. It is a shame he is now letting it fall into uselessness.
Oh and to the other morons, where in my original statement did I say, Todd had to give me things. I simply stated it had been a long long long time since he made original cartoons for the site.
Learn to read or STFU.
“We used to get Halloween Specials, April Fools day specials and many other cartoons.”
“I am unhappy that the site is spiraling down to useless.”
“I will stop coming.”
Awwwwww, diddums not wike being taken at face vawue?
Bye-bye.
I guess you have no grasp on the English language since I still do not see any demands to Todd. Once again, the original post simply stated a fact that we haven’t had new cartoons and yes, I think the site will fade and probably already has lost lots of people due to the lack of updated content.
You are the sad little person since you are happy to sit on a site with no updated content other than a story now and then about a man and his dog.
Enjoy your boring pathetic life.
….said the man getting his panties in a wad violently arguing with a total stranger on the internet. Now THAT’S pathetic.
NOBODY ever said you were “demanding” anything. Nobody… except you. “Whining” is more like it. Like a spoiled child.
Reread the above thread, including your own posts. You’re the one who starts off with sarcasm; I and others stick up for Todd, and you throw a fucking temper tantrum, calling people morons, and behaving like an arrogant little prick with a seriously delusional sense of entitlement because people have dared to question your opinion. Which, like assholes, we all have, and you need to put a plug in yours because it’s stinking up the place. “Good vibes” my ass.
Yes, you stated a “fact” and you love pointing that out- repeatedly. Thank you, Captain Obvious. The only problem is, you’re completely 100% fucking wrong, Captain Asshole. If you scroll down the right side there are all sorts of things that are updated frequently. But NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO…… like the spoiled child you are, you want your cartoons. Rather revealing, I think.
I’ll repeat my earlier challenge to the whiners: start your own site, build a following, get interviewed on major news programs, keep it up for like ten years. Seriously, do that. Then get back to us. I’m sure everybody here can’t wait to see what a pathetic spoiled tantrum-throwing twisted-panties whiner like yourself can come up with. Really.
It is funny that you call people out for arguing on the internet with strangers when it is YOU that responded to my comment. You that called me pathetic.
Once again, it is YOU that needs to reread the post because I was told that I shouldn’t expect Todd to make cartoons for me.
You really are a moron because you make comments about other people which also apply to you Mr. Pot calling the kettle black.
I made a comment based on fact and then was attacked for it and I responded.
Enjoy your sad pathetic life. You can have the last comment since it will make your miserable pathetic life a little less miserable.
Good Day Sir.
You that called me pathetic.
Whine whine whine.
Nice try twisting the facts to suit your own agenda.
I responded. You argued. Learn the difference and your life will be much longer and happier.
The closest thing to what you said was Anonymous saying, “It’s not Todd’s responsibility to “give” you things.” Again, when you learn to read, and think, like an adult you’ll realize that Todd was the subject of that comment, not you. Typical of most self-centered whiny little spoiled brats, you think the world revolves around you. Reality check: it doesn’t. Mercifully.
“You make comments about other people which also apply to you” is one of the most clueless and vague statements ever. I’ll let you try to figure out why.
Let me tell you about my sad pathetic life: I’m happy, I’m succesful, I make other people happy, I treat others with respect and am respected by them. I am making the world a better place… unfortunately that occasionally involves some “tough love” with self-centered whiny little spoiled brats. I enjoy a good laugh, which is how I found this site. And you…?
Be positive and good vibes to you.
As Sh!tForBrains said before, I too love it when people have raging violent debates with anonymous total strangers on the internet over virtually nothing.
That’s the reason why I come here. I admit, I also enjoy Todd’s cartoons, but there’s more to the man than that. Expand your mind. If not, please leave and let others enjoy the site.
This also applies to you Grif.
Very nice post.. Greetings from the Speedy DNS.
