What's going to happen
when you reach 665?
I honestly don't know. I've thought
about it a little, and since this seems to have
taken off like it has, I'd like to continue doing
this site in some form or another. I can tell you
that the list as it is right now will stop.
Beyond that, I don't know. |
What
about using your work elsewhere? Can I?
This is a dicey question. For the most part, I
don't care if you want to use something I've done
as long as you slide me some credit (and a link
would be nice). Online, anyway - if you want to
use my stuff in print, the same thing applies.
Even so, I'm not really uptight about any of this
as long as you don't take credit for any of the
original work I've put up here - and even in a
case like that, all you'll get from me is a pissy
email. I like seeing that people think enough of
my work to show it to others, so it'd be cool if
you let me know you were doing it, but I'm
certainly not going to act like you have to ask
first. On the other hand, it's definitely a
problem if someone not only takes credit for my
work but also is making money off it. If anyone's
getting paid because of this site or the works on
it, it's going to be me - and I'm not. If you'd
like to use something I've done, for profit, email me and we'll talk. |
What's the deal with copyright?
Original works on the site, such as essays and
cartoons and so on, are copyright 2001 Jeffrey S.
Power (sounds fruity, I know). This is sort of a
common sense thing, really - you should be able
to tell what I did and did not come up with. The
personals, the found photos, the fat goths, the
Jings comics, and so on - all of those are owned
by someone else, and I generally try to give
credit where applicable. If you see something
that belongs to you, let me
know. The one time this has happened, they were
quite cordial if not downright pleasant. |
Will
you do work for me?
If I get paid, sure. I do some web
design - this page is not any kind of example of
what I can do - but nothing incredibly
spectacular. I also, as you might notice, draw
and write. I've been published in the past (and
no, not just on the Internet) as both a writer
and cartoonist. If you'd like me to create
something for you, I'd love to hear about
it. |
Where do you get your ideas?
As narcissistic as it might seem to put this
question on a FAQ about me, this is one of those
things I actually do get asked with some degree
of regularity. So here's the answer: I don't
know. Wherever anyone gets ideas for anything, I
guess. I got the idea for Safety Tips from Anubis
while staring at a table in a diner. Seems sort
of random to me, the way it tends to happen. |
The
"little man on the boat" refers to the
clitoris.
Not a question, I know, but I get this a
lot too (For those of you who are confused - this
refers to this
entry).
I figured this out almost immediately after I put
the entry up, and I'd had my suspicions in the
first place as to what it meant. Even so, I just
thought it was funnier left that way, so I did. |
I have a cool site/flash
movie/mp3/whatever, will you make an entry of it?
The short answer is: Probably not. The
long answer, if you care, is this: I get sent a
lot of things, and I appreciate all of it. But if
it's your site or creation or whatever - I tend
to only link to things that either strike me as
somehow odd, or that I find on my own. It's a
principle thing, I guess. Which also applies to
things you didn't come up with - I will check it
out, and probably enjoy it, but chances are it
won't fit the site. Also bear this in mind - if I
made an entry of every "all your base"
type thing that came along, this site would
rapidly begin to suck. I sort of pride myself on
occasionally tossing the reader something they
might not have seen before. For example, before
my entry on Boong Ga Boong Ga (the ass fingering
game), there were roughly ten matches on Google
for the game. As I write this, there are about a
hundred fifty seven. I'm sort of proud of that
(even though a whole lot of people copied my text
on it verbatim and made no mention of me). Such
is life. |

This
is a FAQ, such as it is. I get asked a lot of
these questions often, and some of them I never
get asked at all but are in here because I'd like
you to know them. So I guess they're sort of
masquerading as frequently asked questions, but
it's okay, because we still respect them and
their accomplishments or some shit. Anyway, here
you go.
