Going Through My Files: A Random Selection of Cool Stuff Because I Simply Didn't Have Enough Time To Do Anything Else Today

in #life6 years ago (edited)

@NoNamesLeftToUse The Writer/Artist Himself isn't lazy.

I'm simply swamped with life today.

NoNamesLeftToUse - Your Order - Copy.jpeg
Your Order

Ah Yes

Memories.

You know how some shows on television produce an episode of clips from previous episodes, then try to pass that off as a new show?

Today, I'm taking a page out of their books. If that's how the pros do it, I can too!

Instead of going through old posts and reminding myself why I produced these images in the first place, I'll go through my files and wing it.

So the first one up there, I think I made that to go along with a post where I pretended to be an artist working for the Illuminati. Of course, in the headline I spelled it Itanimulli and wrote the rest of the opening line in reverse so I could confuse readers and make them think I was speaking a different language so they don't look at the post because if you're working for the Illuminati, you probably don't want to get caught, because you'll be all over Youtube in a matter of minutes.

Smart thinking!

NoNamesLeftToUse - You Name It - Copy.jpeg

There's an image I made to go along with a post asking you folks out there to give it a name. I remember reading all kinds of creative responses, we had fun, but I have no clue what was said. I might do something like that again someday. I know some of you out there like to give my work nicknames so you might enjoy something like that.

Whoa!

What's going on there?

Hmm. Maybe I should just move on to the next one.

NoNamesLeftToUse - Clown Master Normone.jpeg
The Clown Master Normone

I remember that one well. I wrote a little story about...something. I know it was interesting and dealt with a little being that became the ignored conscience of some random corporate clown. Yes, it was some deep stuff. Some days I miss the brain I used to have that was capable of writing such amazing things. I'm sure, in time, it'll all come back to me.

Or, maybe it'll get worse and my mind will just end up looking like this:

Hoy Hoy

I'm certain I produced that image, then shared only that image as a standalone post. Needless to say, I did not make much money that day. Maybe $1 or less. A hard lesson learned and that's one of the reasons why I don't do too many posts like that nowadays.

NoNamesLeftToUse - Gerald2 - Copy.jpeg
Gerald

Gerald caused quite the stir. I remember it well.

Would you believe another member here took that image, posted it on his blog, then admitted later he did it just to insult me? True story. A few of us had to go and flag the post and of course he didn't like that, but whatever. I remember writing after about how if we're all going to live together in this house, I should be able to leave some spare change laying around and not have to worry about others stealing it. Right? Yes.

And just so you folks know, if you ever want to use some of my work, ask me. What's the worst that can happen? I might say no? What if I say yes? Maybe I'll ask for a small fee? We don't know unless you try, right?

NoNamesLeftToUse - Cow World - Copy.jpeg

That was a great invention I designed.

The cow was supposed to save the world.

It's probably easier if I just quote the post instead of trying to explain it all again.


How To Save the World, Power the Blockchain and Feed the Vegans... with Cows

I think the image is self explanatory, but I'll explain a few details of the process in case you're confused.

First, We'll Need a Cow

I decided to go with the trippiest looking cow I could find. Her name is Betty. Hi Betty!

Like any other cow, Betty gets hungry. Today, rather than throwing it in the garbage like most idiots, we've used city people lawn clippings. I've never understood why so many city folk waste perfectly fine cow food, but that's a story for another day. You can see the chute on the right of the apparatus. That is where you place the food. It slides down towards Betty's mouth and makes her excited.

Betty Likes to be Free Range

I've placed a treadmill on the floor of the apparatus to give Betty the feeling of freedom. Depending on how tender you want Betty to be or how much power you need, the incline can be adjusted.

That's right! Betty walking along while eating the luscious city people lawn clippings is what powers the blockchain! I've also added solar panels on top for good measure. This also provides Betty the shade she deserves.

You Mentioned Something About Vegans?

Yes I did, thanks for noticing. You see that pile of cow dung on the ground behind Betty?

That's Vegan Food!

Now, before you go crazy, I'm not telling the vegans to eat poop. Everyone who grows vegetables knows how important it is to keep your soil healthy. Manure, which is a combination of wheat or barley straw and dung is one of the best fertilizers known to humanity and is 100% organic! It'll help you grow the best damn carrots you ever ate!

Conclusion

When Betty is done her workout and feast, she's free to roam around the pasture again like most cows do. That's why I didn't include chains or harnesses.

Basically, everything here combined will save the world and make everyone happy for a change!

Hooray!


Obviously, my idea didn't take off. That's okay though. I'm sure someday we'll see thousands of those contraptions, all over the planet!

I guess I'll end it with this:

Eye Tower.jpeg

A tower of eyes. Why not?

Have a nice day!

I really like Your Order.

I was just thinking about all the times I've ordered food and how nobody has ever said that to me before.

That tower is my new lock screen. I’m serious

That's awesome, but I think you're going to need a bigger phone.

I like your tower ones. It is amusing to keep holding the down arrow, waiting to see how far it goes, and what pops out during the cruise. I saw some beautiful women, at least one wolf creature, a gnome, and a lot of noses.

The Clown Master and Gerald both have a similar orientation, and the first thing I think of is a fierce looking uterus. I don't know where my head is tonight.

I think my favorite out of the lot is the Illuminati one - the one that has the astronaut lady with the flame thrower off her thigh standing on a UFO in front of Mars. Exciting stuff.

I want to do more towers but I think I'll wait until there's a chance to actually make the front page again. They're always a lot of work and if I just so happen to publish during an unpredictable quiet time, who's going to see it? Give me a skyscraper, I'll paint it, because everyone will see.

A natural Steemit high. That does look like a ton of work. I get a headache thinking about all that time spent staring at a screen.

This little show took about 30 hours to put together. I didn't use the best software back then though. It was an experiment turned headache.

That's awesome! I love the little train you have in there.

You must be part artist, part mad scientist to finish all that.

Happy scientist.

You do seem happy lately. I'm always happy doing what I do here too, although I don't always realize it while I am working.

We never have a conversation. I have to have the last word :)

Most fun I have had all day; love the cow; lol!

I was hoping this would be fun. Betty is awesome and I plan to do a few more cartoons/funny page material things in the future.

No wonder that Gerald caused a stir. Look at him, he is literally meant to cause a stir.
Although too much stirring is not good, now that I think about it. I mean nobody wants be compared to a spoon.

Being compared to a spoon would suck, but it's still better than getting forked.

Forked! Didn't think of that
LOL!!!

A tower of eyes look really creepy, I hope I won’t have any nightmares after seeing it in its whole beauty. I prefer my dream about Betty. At least Betty gets to save me from nightmares if not the world.

Betty is some cow, that's for damn sure. Those massive towers I made took a long time to finish and most of them were only seen once. A lot of people don't even know I did crazy crap like that.

Nice collections @nonameslefttouse although these images don't look familiar. I bet I haven't started steeming when you painted them or maybe I was yet to have the opportunity of knowing you. The 6th image looks like Nigeria's coat of arms and the last image is so scary. Oh my

I'm certain these all well over a year old. Most who follow now wouldn't have seen them. I have hundreds more. I picked these at random as well, just for fun.

I love it! Your palette seems to have changed over time. My first thought on 'Your Order" was "Do you want fries with that?"

Things change often. Sometimes I get stuck in certain styles and other times I branch out. Often I'll use tools in ways they weren't intended to be used, just to see what happens. I guess that kind of like someone discovering how a kitchen sponge holds paint and makes cool marks on a wall. Always experimenting.

It's a good way to be. We continue to grow by trying new things.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

I love this haiku bot!

Wow the eyes have it today they're all looking at me reading the post. I'm being watched.

I made a massive black and white chaotic image, then in every place where my mind showed me a face that wasn't there, I added eyes. Then the whole thing came alive and yes, they're watching you.

Your painting is very nice .
I really like it .

Thanks for sharing @nonameslefttouse
Upvote you .

It's eyes all the way down.

Amazing quality and professional work.Patience well rewarded.

The lickable, disembodied knee! Ha, I remember most of these, great trip down steememory lane ;)

Oh man, that tower of eyes is trippy.

I like these posts where you revisit past things, especially when they're things from before I got here. Might not be new, but it's new to me, and that's what counts. Your earlier works have a different feel to them sometimes.
