Angst is a Five Letter Word...


Angst is a Five Letter Word is a humor-driven comic created by Joshua Tompke, also known as Evil Chihuahua. Angst is about, well, Joshua Tompke , living out a fantasy life in anime webcomic form. Updates are erratic at best.

The art for this comic improved dramatically from the first to the very latest update, and that in itself impressed me. Excellent use of shading and coloring effects only enhances the anime style, which works really well with the oddball storylines. I would like to see more variety in the "camera angles" used, to make the comic flow a little better. When all of the panels in a comic have the same perspective, it can be a little static and boring. Why not spice it up a little with some over the shoulder, or a shot looking down at the characters, or any of a number of other perspectives? Also, and I know he mentions this in the comic, but a little more use of females could possibly attract more of them to the comic. All in all though drastically improved art from comic 1.

I don't read a lot of anime, and I'm not particularly sure Chihuahua is trying to have an all anime comic here, but from what I've seen and read it mimics it quite well. By that I mean a lot of anime seems to be wacky and not make a lot of sense storywise, and I get that from Angst for the most part. There aren't real meaty stories here, just odd half-stories about potatoes and winged shoulder creatures that don't seem to really go anywhere or have any big payoff. Could all of the filler(which there is tons of) and delays in updates be a factor? I know it can be hard to get storylines going when you don't focus a lot of attention on the comic. I just wish people who did webcomics would keep up their schedules. I know there is life outside of webcomics, but don't tease your fans with a pic that says "sorry about the lack of updates, more coming soon!" or something to that effect. Sorry. Back to the storylines. Ahem. The one big storyline that was supposed to continue had no payoff whatsoever. It was quickly tied up and gotten rid of because, in the authors own words, "Seriously, I was getting pretty sick of all this story." Not too much enthusiasm for his own comic, huh? I will admit though, I at times have gotten tired of doing a story that seems to drag out with no end in sight, so I can understand it, but I wouldn't let the readers know. Anyhoo, I do like the one-shot humor more than the storylines here. They can be quite amusing, especially the rare ones about Josh trying to get a girl. More of those please!

Less filler, a more consistent update schedule, and better written storylines mixed in with the gag comics would get Angst back on the right track. I did like it, but I'm not sure it's my cup of tea. Or saki. Or whatever else you anime types drink. I would say give it a read, especially the second half, as it improves by leaps and bounds as it progresses. Give Angst a chance, and you just might get rid of yours.
I give this comic...

In her Paris Hilton twenties, things really came together. She could legally party, and the socialite and her BFF Nicole landed a reality show called The Simple Life in 2003. But, things got a bit complicated when a 2-year-old sex tape surfaced just a week before the show debuted. The home video featured her and ex-boyfriend Rick Saloman in some rather compromising positions. She said about the tape back then (via People.com): "I was in an intimate relationship, never thinking my foolish actions would become public."
Paris Hilton Sex Tape
It looks like Hilton's enough is not enough water shower as usual. After cooling of the sun on hot days Paris Hilton sex tapes champagne shower. Yesterday, the country joined the Parisantorope, it is shown spraying the crowd with the audience dancing on the roof at the club jacuzzi as she danced. Hysterical laughter, the friends who took part in Paris to participate in an interesting bottle. One was dressed in strange clothes of those Spider-Man. Paris, 29, almost always look sexy bikini nude vacation, he chose a piece matches a strong, bright multi-color mistakes. Her hair back and tied the One Night in Paris, graduated from an eclectic look hippie band.

This video will derail the project off course is the thirst for knowledge. By way of comparison, the screenplay is one of the things should not be done. What is a family of amateur video, do not expect a better quality of the average "American Funniest Home Videos" Besides, it's worth a watch band. No fake orgasms, and bad behavior that we can see two people having fun with them in a very natural way. This is one of them has almost no right to world-class and wealthy Paris Hilton is what makes this tape special and different from shooting video for the average home of a couple celebrity gossip sex tapes and more nipple slips

If you're interested in improving your health, it [B][URL=http://www.mbtplus.com/]mbt shoes best prices[/URL][/B] can be beneficial to start from the ground up. Let's talk about your footwear. How does [B]mbt shoes best prices[/B] yours rank? Some so-called fitness shoes merely look great, but don't really provide [B]discount mbt shoes[/B] any actual health benefits. Other shoes actually make a [U]MBT[/U] legitimate difference. If you want footwear that truly helps, MBT shoes are the first [U][B]mbt shoes sale[/U][/B] step toward a healthier you.

What does MBT stand for? Good question. The [B]mbt discount shoes[/B] answer: Masai Barefoot Technology. They're designed to [B]mbt shoes sale[/B] simulate walking barefoot, which helped our ancestors to walk [U]MBT[/U] healthier than we do. Modern humans cram their feet into all kinds [U][B]MBT shoes[/U][/B] of crazy, uncomfortable shoes, and we walk on [U][B]mbt shoes review[/U][/B] unnatural surfaces. MBT returns our feet to their natural, healthier [U]mbt shoes cheap[/U] environment.

MBT shoes actually trigger and enforce the [B]mbt shoes sale[/B] tiny muscles that cause our bodies to naturally absorb [U]discount mbt shoes[/U] shock. The patented construction of the MBT soles features a [U][B]mbt shoes review[/U][/B] unique sensor that causes a simulation of being on uneven [U]mbt walking shoes[/U] ground. It causes an instability that causes the body [B][URL=http://www.mbtplus.com/]mbt shoes review[/URL][/B] to react with slight movements to compensate for the instability. Thus, a "rolling" process [B]mbt shoes best prices[/B] begins. This active, natural balancing act causes our bodies to automatically [U][B]footwear etc[/U][/B] exercise. As a result, muscles are strengthened and toned and posture is improved. Also, we experience less joint stress and back [U]MBT[/U] pain. Clearly, it's quite a workout, and the benefits are vast.


The shoes do not resemble any [B]mbt shoes review[/B] other footwear on the market today. Many people are [U]MBT[/U] surprised when they discover that these "health shoes" are actually [U][B]discount mbt shoes[/U][/B] esthetically pleasing, as well. [U]mbt shoes best prices[/U] The brand offers trendy [U][B]mbt sandals[/U][/B] mary janes, chukka boots, trainers, clogs, sandals, oxfords, slides, fashion boots, mules and more.


MBT's simple-yet-effective rolling [U][B]MBT shoes[/U][/B] action with each step is the strategy behind their [B]mbt shoes review[/B] brilliance. Not long after you begin wearing these shoes and utilizing the rolling technique, you notice [B]mbt sandals[/B] a difference. Your knees and back feel better. Neck [B]mbt sneakers[/B] and shoulder tension begin to melt away. Your joints are less stressed. Your thighs and [U][B]mbt shoes cheap[/U][/B] buttocks appear more toned. Perhaps you [U][B]mbt sandals[/U][/B] even notice a difference in your waistline. Yes, it's the shoes. When you [U][B]mbt walking shoes[/U][/B] wear them, you actually burn more calories when simply standing than you do when [B]MBT[/B] wearing standard shoes. Scientific research proves it.


Now you see why keeping a natural balance is crucial toward maintaining [B]MBT shoes[/B] a healthier you. If you're making your health a priority, then doesn't it make [U][B]mbt discount shoes[/U][/B] sense to choose footwear that not only increases your fitness level, but also [B]discount mbt shoes[/B] supports improved overall health? Now that you understand what all the [U][B]mbt sandals[/U][/B] hype is about, perhaps it's time to try the MBT experience. Your body will thank [B]footwear etc[/B] you.

Though it unquestionably sounds a bit unnerving to attempt [B]mbt shoes review[/B] to learn to walk in these shoes, it's a quick process [B]MBT[/B] to master, and the benefits are well worth it. If you want to try [U][B]MBT shoes[/U][/B] the experience before rushing to buy a pair, try this [U][B]MBT[/U][/B] easy experiment: Get outside and walk barefoot on a soft, uneven surface. Make [B]mbt sneakers[/B] sure it's natural ground. Sand works great for this purpose. Notice how [B]mbt shoes best prices[/B] your body automatically compensates [U][B]mbt sneakers[/U][/B] on its own to maintain proper balance on the unstable [U][B]mbt shoes sale[/U][/B] surface. Feel your muscles working differently than they do when you usually walk on man-made ground. That's your body forcing you to keep its natural [B]mbt shoes sale[/B] balance. Do you feel your muscles are stimulated more [B]mbt shoes best prices[/B] than usual?


Now you see why keeping a natural balance is crucial toward maintaining [B]MBT shoes[/B] a healthier you.

do i take a car insurance company to small claims court? The insurer agency turned down my claim, (I would go ahead and take responsible driver to small claims though I've no address to serve them or send a demand letter). One other driver was at fault however his insurance firm claims there can be a difference in your statements so they need to take the word of their insured vs. my word. I'm sure they acted in undesirable belief and did not carry out a proper investigation would this be a valid claim in small claims court? I have to have some to blame drivers insurer (not my own) to small claims for any damages to my car.

I needed to post you this little bit of note to be able to say thanks again on the superb strategies you've provided above. It has been really wonderfully open-handed of people like you to deliver openly exactly what a few people might have supplied for an e book to generate some money for themselves, particularly considering that you might well have tried it in case you considered necessary. The advice as well acted to become a easy way to recognize that most people have the same desire just like my very own to grasp significantly more when it comes to this problem. I'm sure there are thousands of more enjoyable instances ahead for individuals who look into your forum.
