“Kevin, 32, works at Kodak,” you scroll further to the description, “I love being tied up and need a dominatrix, have swing at home—no.” Swipe right. 

“Lisa, 24, works at Infinity Dance Studio,” you definitely are weak for athletic ladies, “My hobbies include cuticle care and online shopping! Looking for a sugar daddy or mommy that can spoil me rotten—definitely can’t afford that kind of relationship.” Swipe right. 

“Hansol, 26, works in an art museum,” sounds promising, you love art, “wait, why are all his pictures of him holding fish? Is he inside a fish? Who the heck finds that attractive?” Swipe right. 

“Billiam, 31, works in finance. Needs a bratty baby girl who can triangle,” you grimace, “what is with these guys and stating their kinks from the get-go? Gotta take a girl out to dinner first, and the fuck is a triangle?” 

You swore off Tinder since the dark ages, also known as senior year of college. However you’re in a particular slump, thirst-trapped between needing some serious dick and a committed relationship. You’d prefer the latter, but after a stressful day at work and the fact that it’s the ass crack o’dawn, you’ll take what you can get. 

“Bye Billiam,” you sing-song into your phone, moving to swipe right. 

Except you accidentally drop your phone between your sheets, and when you pick it up you accidentally swipe left. 

“Fuck fuck fuck me with a fuckin’ fuck nugget!” you cry out into oblivion. You’re so glad you live alone at the very least, it stops you from looking like a crazy person when you talk your potential sexipades out. 

Billiam has Super-liked you! 

“No. Nononono—” you bludgeon your head against your pillow, frowning when your phone opens up a chat for you and Billiam. 

Billiam: hi can u check if my dick is too small

You: please, don’t send me a picture of your dick. 

Billiam is typing… 

You: for fuck’s sake—

“—that’s disgusting,” Jihoon curses, and immediately sends out the screenshot for sexual harassment. 

“What’s disgusting?” Mingyu chimes, swiveling in his spinny chair from his side of the room.

“Don’t look,” Jihoon gags, reaching for a bottle of Coca-Cola from the mini-fridge. “You’ll throw up your fried chicken.” 

“My person is a twenty-one year old nympho who also happens to be a incel,” Mingyu chastises to his screen, closing up the eighth tab of BBC porn he’s seen this week, “he doesn’t know how well he’s avoiding the FBI’s eyes,” Mingyu shakes his head, “so I’ve seen some pretty bad shit, but I’ll take your word for it.” 

“No,” he echoes your name like you’ve done the most heinous thing in the world, “no, no! Why would you swipe left on Jackson? You’re way out of his league! He literally looks like he has a pea-sized brain!” 

“He does look like he has half a brain cell,” your voice reverberates through his noise-cancelling headphones, unknowingly agreeing to Jihoon’s passionate throw of anger, “but I’m deprived and desperate, so!” 

It’s like you can hear his sentiments exactly. 

“Literally, you could have any person you want,” Jihoon chastises through his desktop, glaring heavily at your bedroom camera, “you’re wasting your time with these losers!” 

Oblivious, you let yourself dangle across the bed. The camera isn’t the best quality, but Jihoon watches intently at the rise and fall of your chest as you attempt to fall into a fitful sleep. 

“Some yell at screens for soccer,” Minghao says to the air from his cubicle, “some yell for Starcraft, but Jihoon yells for Tinder like it’s an Olympic sport.” 

“Jihoonie,” Mingyu rolls around his chair, resting a long arm over the backrest, “do you have a crush on your civilian?” 

Jihoon immediately swivels around his hair, meeting the amused eyes of Mingyu. “No,” he says sharply, whipping around to glare at his screen. 

He glares harder the longer Mingyu’s simple question sinks in. He doesn’t have a crush on you, he likes you. Jihoon swallows his sigh, wondering why you would want to go as low as Tinder to look for a potential tryst. From your profile, you’re absolutely beautiful and intelligent. You have simple pleasures that match his—a hot cup of tea right after dark, snuggling under a weighted blanket while watching anime, and sleeping in on Sundays.

Unlike him, you don’t see the world through half a dozen lenses and a plethora of information right at your fingertips. No, you’re lucky. 

“Hey can you grab me my water bottle?” Mingyu asks over his shoulder. 

Jihoon thinks nothing of it, leaving his post for the thirty seconds it takes to get to the mini-fridge and grab Mingyu’s Hydroflask. 

“You got a call,” Mingyu says when he plops the bottle on his desk, indicating to the red blinker on Jihoon’s computer. 

It isn’t until he puts on his headphones does he take care to see why his blinker is going off. 

He’s getting an incoming call. From you. 

You’ve been waiting on the line for about two minutes. He lets two additional minutes breeze by because Jihoon is internally screaming. You’re calling again. There’s a fire blazing in his brain, his fingers hot as he twitches against the spacebar of his keyboard. 

From the monitor he can see that you’ve given up on sleep, hands pawing through your drawer so you can take a final swipe at your magenta-tinted lip balm before nesting yourself in the sheets. You’re kicking around as if you don’t have work at 9AM, smacking your lips to apply the shiny salve while you wait for your call to be picked up. 

“Why is my civilian calling me,” it isn’t a question, it’s a thinly veiled indication that Jihoon is ready to fight whoever compromised him like this. 

Mingyu and Minghao fail to answer. That’s okay, he isn’t opposed to killing both if neither fess up. 

It would be so easy for him to ignore the call, or redirect it to another part of the office. Yet he aches to talk to you, for real talk to you. As if you’re just two regular plain-old human beings with normal lives, and as if he didn’t know every nook and cranny about your daily routine and your favorite breakfast foods.

Call it pride, call it confidence, but Jihoon’s been pretty good at games and he hopes prior experience helps him get over this hurdle. Slipping on his headset, he accepts the call and answers in a controlled voice, “This is the local hotline for sexual harassment reports, are you here to report a case?” 

Okay, so this is the closest thing he can get to having a full-fledged conversation with you, so he’ll take it. 

“Hi,” you mumble your name into the phone, and he nearly disintegrates right then and there. It’s different when he can hear your voice directly in his ears, definitively reaching out to him as opposed to being a fly on the wall, “I received an email that a report was sent out for my previous chat as sexual harassment, but I didn’t send out a report.” 

“Yes,” Jihoon replies smoothly, tapping his nails against his thighs, “it’s a new update.” 

“Oh, well thank you,” you reply, and Jihoon sees from the camera that you’re staring at your phone in curiosity. 

“It’s my job,” he says, and the words hold more weight than you think, “are you okay?” 

“Is it also your job to ask how I’m doing?” 

He smiles wryly, and he looks up at the monitor to see how you’ve considerably relaxed on your bed. Your legs dangle in the air, and you’re hugging a mango plushie with all the love in the world. “Not really, but I figured I’d ask. I don’t think I’d be able to recover from a dick that looks like an unhinged toenail.” 

Your laugh flutters in his ears, and his stomach is flip-flopping with more than just his shitty ramen lunch. Your face curls and wrinkles into happiness at the lewd joke, and you rest your chin on your stuffed fruit. 

“I’m okay,” you finally answer, “it’s not the first time I’ve seen subpar dick. But thank you… what’s your name?” 

“Uji,” he says, a codename that he considers as precious as his actual name, “feel free to call or text this number if you’re ever feeling uncomfortable and in distress.” 

“I’ll keep that in mind, good night Uji.” 

“Good night.” 

That wasn’t so bad, Jihoon thinks as he hangs up the phone. He dims the monitors to let you freshen up and get ready for bed, as per your schedule. After tonight, he hopes he can be sated with his curiosity of you. Maybe he needs to follow your plans and open up a dating account or something, he feels that he’s starting to get a little too engrossed in your presence. 

The waning starts today. 

You: help, i’m feeling uncomfortable and in distress

Uji: what is it this time? 

You: i can’t decide which weighted blanket i should get. Will more weight make me feel more comforted or will i accidentally suffocate myself in my sleep? 

The waning of you did not start that night, in fact it never began. Jihoon’s been on edge for weeks, simultaneously teetering between what he calls the high-school equivalent of the talking stage and an absolute catastrophe. 

It started as an accident, you meant to call your friend’s number for cooking help but since the last call before your friends was his, you called Jihoon instead. To your surprise, he knew how to roll out homemade pasta without a pasta machine. You kept him on the call for the entirety of dinner preparation, and he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of pride when your pasta turned out perfect and you were happy and full for the entire night. 

Weeks later, and you’ve been texting each other for shits and giggles. At first you chalk up your insistence that he’s basically Human Google and has the answers to seemingly anything and everything, but over time it seems that you enjoy your daily interactions with him. Whether it be a simple phone call asking how to unclog your drain or a screenshot comparing two different KitchenAids, he’s at your disposal. 

The burner phone he’s been holding as of late is on silent, but he’s able to pick it up immediately. It’s almost intuition, coupled with the way he notices whenever you seem in a pickle and you need to contact him. However he does not have a chance to formulate a reply, as you’re now calling him.

“Couldn’t wait?” he speaks as if you’re familiar with each other, as if you’re friends. Jihoon longs for that so much, he would love to be upgraded to someone other than the IT guy you text for funsies. 

“Yes,” you say, voice laced with determination, “I’m deciding on whether to just like or Super-Like this guy on Light a Flame.” 

Jihoon deflates a little, but steels himself. You’d never want to go on a date with the IT guy, it seems that you enjoy the anonymity of your recent communications. Your conversations are definitely meme-worthy. 

“Who is it?” 

“His name’s Lee Jihoon, 25, works in the FBI.” 

He chokes on his coffee, precious beans from Argentina, and the liquid is flying across his keyboard. 

Pulling up your phone view, it confirms the worst. In a moment of Weakness with a capital W, Jihoon had caved and made a Light a Flame profile the other night. It’s an app reserved for more serious relationships, which means you’ve finally graduated from Tinder. 

“Are you okay?” he wants to cry when he hears you on the other line, genuinely panicked. “Do you need me to send you his profile?” 

“N-no,” he sputters, rubbing a rough napkin from McDonalds over his dripping chin. He thought he privated his profile last week after he realized there was nothing he could do to let loose of you. Turns out that isn’t the case, because you’re currently pursuing his profile and actually kinda-sorta considering him for a potentially serious relationship. 

“C’mon, Uji,” you tease lightly, “you always seem to know what to do. This is your area of expertise after all, since you work for that kind of department.” 

What should he do, scratch that, what can he do? It’s a complete violation of policy to be fraternizing with his civilian life. Sure, there has been episodes of civilians and agents meeting each other, but only minor violations that both parties forgot about shortly after. He’s so far deep at this point, he can risk being relocated or losing his civilian—losing you. 

“Do you think he really works in the FBI?” you say when he doesn’t reply immediately, “he’s really cute, though. Totally looks like my style, and he likes My Hero as well! C’mon, I just need for you to check as to whether he’s a homicidal maniac or a compulsive liar.” 

Liar. He’s a liar. 

That self-accusation prompts him to slump in defeat, and he mumbles in the phone, “I don’t think he’s worth it. I’d say pass.” 

“Hey, Coups has seniority,” Soonyoung pats Jihoon thoughtfully on the back with one hand, and grilling meat with the other. Barbeque always lifted up Jihoon’s spirits. “Why don’t you give it a chance and meet her for real? And then he can give me your super cute civilian and then he can give my shitty civilian to some newbie.” 

“And if it doesn’t work out, I just lose her,” Jihoon’s eyes are watering, most likely from the excess smoke around their grill, but it does align with his current state of sadness. It was the right thing to do, he thinks over and over as he replays that phonecall from last night. “Hoshi, if you were in my situation, would you have done the same?” 

“Like I said–” Soonyoung—codename Hoshi, waves his tongs around like a magic wand, “your civilian is super cute, so I would be making a beeline to her house and—” 

“Okay, don’t finish that sentence,” you’re his civilian, not Soonyoung’s. 

“Cheer up, c’mon,” Soonyoung’s filling his bowl with all sorts of delicious things, charred vegetables, mixed rice, and pork belly. Jihoon’s favorite is pork belly, so eventually he relents with a timid smile, taking out his chopsticks to appease his friend, “there it is, Uji. Food always makes things better—” 

“Uji?” 

Both off-duty agents freeze, hearing the familiar ting of your voice as it glares holes into Jihoon’s back. It’s you. Since they’re off the clock, he would have no idea you’d be here. Usually that’s fine, it’s early morning and it’s pretty unlikely that you’d run into your civilian considering you’re supposed to know every second of their schedule. It seems that tonight you’ve varied from the norm. 

“Uh, hey?” 

His back is still facing you, and he’s side eying Soonyoung in a panic. He’s wearing a cap and a nondescript hoodie, feeling like a shlub as your familiar voice pings back at him with excitement. 

“I knew I recognized your voice!” you’re unfazed, definitely not realizing the distress the two men are currently going through. “What a small world, I didn’t think we’d ever actually run into each other!” 

“Talk to her, you ass!” Soonyoung hisses, and immediately swivels his chair so he has no choice but to face you.

You’re so, so pretty. Prettier in person, prettier than any crappy 480p screen can give him. You’re definitely not dressed for barbeque, in fact you look like you’re just passing by to pick up a to-go order after a night out. You’re dressed in a silky looking velvet off-the-shoulder top, the cherry red color practically melting onto your skin. The black skirt paired with it has Jihoon salivating for more than just barbeque, and he has no idea how to look away. 

The smile is wiped clean off your face however, and you recognize him almost immediately. “Jihoon?” 

This should be a moment of joy for him, after all it’s far too late to go back at this point. You look a little hurt, your face twisted in confusion as you put two and two together. 

Soonyoung excuses himself to go to the bathroom, although neither party seems to care. The lame, over-distended EDM music that plays over the cacophony of the barbeque place seems to melt in the atmosphere, much like how the smoke hits the fan, and it’s just you two in the room. Jihoon gestures a pale hand to Soonyoung’s seat, and you take a beat to reluctantly sit yourself down. 

You clutch your skirt with both hands, thumbs ringing against the pleats and ironing them out. “So, you’re also Jihoon?” your voice is tiny, small and sad. Jihoon feels liquid guilt inject in his veins, and he wishes he could reach out and pat your shoulder, hold your hand, something. However no matter how much he knows you, he’s a stranger to you. “Why did you lie to me?” 

“It’s… complicated,” you shake your head at his pathetic reply, and Jihoon hates this. He feels like he’s drowning in smoke and mirrors and the cloying scent of pork belly is now sticking to all his senses, immobilizing him. 

With a cross of your arms, you scoff, “It’s always complicated.” 

“Please don’t think I said those things the other night because I don’t want to date you,” Jihoon tumbles the words out like a hamster wheel, wanting to speed up to your pace as fast as he can, “I want to, I really do, but it’s—”

“Complicated.” 

“Yeah.” 

The two of you sit in silence, letting the noise back into your little bubble. Jihoon feels his stare on you, akin to how a teacher looks over your shoulder during an exam. He robotically eats rice, grain after grain as he lets you have your look. 

The slope of his nose, the cotton smooth skin, the lean yet strong stature. You can’t believe he matches the Light a Flame profile perfectly. Other than the frumpy clothes, he matches the man on your phone, a simple picture in a black suit that reminds you strangely of the movie Kingsman. You mentally roll through what you remember from his profile, his hobbies, his likes and dislikes, his occupation—

“Wait,” you pause, your brows knitting together, “so the FBI thing on your profile… is not a joke?” 

Jihoon forgets to chew his last bite, and he swallows a whole two centimeters of meat down his throat. Ouch. 

“It’s—” 

“Complicated.” 

The adjective has a whole new meaning now. It’s crazy how in so little words, so much is exchanged between you two. You might not be realizing it, but Jihoon’s so attuned to you he feels like the pick to your guitar, strumming and humming along your chords like it’s second nature. It really isn’t fair, but anticipating your reactions helps greatly. 

“There’s things you’re not telling me.” 

“Right.” 

“And things you can’t tell me,” you add. 

“Yes.” 

“Then what are some things you can tell me?” 

“I’d… rather not here,” Jihoon’s eyes dart around the room, looking for all the pinholes and micro cams attached to the restaurant. By the bonsai, under the table, in the koi tank, “I need to work out some paperwork before anything.” 

“Paperwork?” 

Jihoon nods mutely, but he looks at you with a litany of emotions in his eyes you’re reeling back in your stool. Why do you feel like this man knows you from a simple five-minute interaction? And why do you feel like you can trust this man with your life? 

“Okay,” you finally say. 

“Really? Okay?” you think he’s cute, the way his eyes perk up and his back straightens. 

“Really.” 

Silence fills the space once more. This time however, it feels more at ease. 

“The only reason why I’m saying yes,” you pretend to nonchalantly play with your fingertips, a manicure reserved for a date you’ve long abandoned for this evening in favor of a new flame, “is because I think FBI agents are kinda hot.” 

A flush blooms on Jihoon’s cheeks, and you can’t help but giggle.

Thank you for wanting to though, I appreciate that a ton.

Anonymous said: Just a rant here. I'm annoyed that there are no rings in the glove category or some other category. The reason I want this is because I use eyelashes that are in the skin detail section and rings don't work and I don't want to use the accessory eyelashes because my sim wears glasses. It annoys me but that's all.

i... rant away luv i feel u

Anonymous said: What do you do besides sims? That is all you post about and I was curious if that is all you play?

I play Roblox with @ayoshi sometimes, cause that is about all my computer can handle lmao. I have a switch so I play some Nintendo titles on there like Zelda, Splatoon 2, and other stuff. I also have been plying Fortnite recently with @imvikai @greenllamas and @pinealexple. That is about all I play right now lmao. I play Animal Crossing Pocket Camp and Pokemon Go on my phone.

Anonymous said: Hi there ! Just wanted to say I've also been experiencing that problem with your 'downloads' page. I don't have a Tumblr account so I had to tell you this way. Perhaps it's a MacBook issue ? I'm not sure, but I'm using a MacBook Pro. Anyways, thank you for all the beautiful cc you provide us with, you're the best.

Yeah I got another ask about them using a Mac for it. That seems to be the problem. I am not a coder, nor do I know a single thing about coding. All I can suggest doing is going to http://aharris00britney.tumblr.com/tagged/s4cc and using that which sucks to page through I know :( I am sorry

Tbh since I post hairs 3 times a month it would be hard for me to keep everything up to date. I might do something like all my CC from 2017 in one zip, and all my cc from 2018 in another? and then make one for 2019 at the end of the year. I’m not sure though.

Anonymous said: Hey! Love your hairs! Can I request a Riley hair without the hairclip?

the riley hair doesn’t have a clip so I am going to assume you mean the Peyton hair since it was released in the same month. It wouldn’t really be possible to do Peyton without the clip since it has a part of the hair going up into the clip. Without it there would be a hole and if the hole was filled in it would still look weird since the hair would be going up into nothing. I’m sorry <3

Your CC is like renaissance to Sims 4 modding(I ain't even kidding).Thank you for sharing/uploading them here on tumblr.  Would you be uploading any video on how you create your sims on youtube anytime soon? And what sliders do you usually use in creating sims if there are some?

thank you so much!!! I have tried recording my game before and the footage just comes out super lag. Hopefully later this year I will be able to get a computer and I could record something then. Also I don’t use any sliders or presets on my main Sims :)

(this was sent during Strangerville) I would say 8/10 recommendation. But I love storylines and stuff in games so my opinion is very based on that.

Anonymous said: I know Sims 5 is still so far away, but I still have a question! With the release of Sims 4 so many awesome creators for Sims 3 just stopped creating from one day to another. So my question is: Could you imagine yourself creating Custom Content for Sims 5? I'm asking because I seriously love every single piece you create for Sims 4, and I really wish the glory era of Ah00b won't end with the release of Sims 5. Ily! <3

it depends on the style that TS5 goes for tbh. I love Sims 4 style and I don’t know much of anything about creating alpha hairs so if TS5 goes that direction I doubt I would be able to create for it. also thank you for calling it the glory era of ah00b lmao

Well I named a hair Rosanne thinking it was close enough to her name lmao. I might name a hair coming in July Rosie. We shall see when it gets to July XD

Thoughts and feelings on AOR S1 : E3

This was something I had wanted to do since I finished The Dark Crystal: AOR. Just talk about the moments in each episode that made me emotional, had fun hidden details, or moments I just liked or disliked in all 10 episodes.

EPISODE 3 : WHAT WAS SUNDERED AND UNDONE

One of my favorite episodes!

“So jingle jangle, time to put on the hat.”

Juni is a queen. I love her, and I wish to see more of her, and her Spriton boyfriend

“I would have run away with the Sifan long trine past if I had to attend half the meetings you do in a single day.”

I really loved the small sisterly moments between Tavra, Brea, and Seladon. I wish I got to see more of them, even if they are just a few moments.

“Remember, the bonds of sisterhood can be tested, but never broken.”

Again, it’s the little sisterly moments. I love them so much.

“Go back to the nest you came from, you dirty grottan!”

(Video posted by GeeklyTV on Youtube)

It’s interesting, seeing the way two different clans interact. And how clans play into how gelflings treat you. All other clans look down at Grottan because they are believed to be dirty, and unhygienic, while they don’t take into consideration on how friendly and resourceful the clan actually is. And then there’s Hup, beating up gelflings over half his size for a girl he met about a day ago. True friendship right there.

“I’m here. I’m always here.” 

“You know what I mean, dear.”

I may not have high amounts of favoritism towards Seladon, but this just hurts. “All-Maudra first, mother second” isn’t a good way of raising a kid. It starves them of affection. And it can cause them to do unfavorable things for admiration.

“It won’t light. The ground’s too wet.”

“We’ll see about that.”

The scene where Deet and Rian first met, at least formally met. I love these two, and I love their chemistry! 

Lastly, can we just appreciate Onica? I love the mystical pirate sifan so much.

Batman TAS: Vendetta

“Alfred! You’re beautiful!”

Episode: 23 Robin: No Writer: Michael Reaves Director: Frank Paur Animator: Spectrum Airdate: October 5, 1992 Grade: B

I love it when in Batman media, we get to see Batman solving mysteries. Particularly when it’s a little bit more involved than Batman simply putting something into his computer and having it shit out an automatic answer for him. I like to see him investigating a crime-scene, interrogating thugs, and exploring new areas. That is exactly what we got to see in the episode Vendetta, as Batman tries to figure out who is seemingly axing off different convicts that share some dark connections with Harvey Bullock. Because of these connections, along with some framing and some false evidence, Batman suspects that Harvey himself could be the one causing trouble, a concept that I feel was begging to be done. Bullock often suspects Batman as not only being untrustworthy, but sometimes even having a hand in specific crimes (see On Leather Wings). Here it is a reverse situation. Harvey didn’t do anything wrong (as Commissioner Gordon insisted to Batman, letting him know that Bullock is a good cop), so Batman, instead of immediately blaming him and going after him, takes his time, trying to make sure that he has the mystery solved. This highlights one of Bullock’s flaws, and that is his pride (which we have mentioned before). Once he suspects something, he has too much pride to consider other possibilities. And sometimes, these suspicions of his can get him into a lot of trouble like in the episode P.O.V. Batman, on the other hand, is much more unbiased when he is at work. And even though he heavily suspected Bullock, in the end, he was willing to admit that he was mistaken to Bullock’s face. Bullock, obviously foreign to this respectable behavior, seemed confused, but perhaps it was enough to maybe teach him a thing or two. Batman’s little speech at the end was really nice too, and it shows that even though he feels similar about Bullock to how Commissioner Gordon feels, that he’s stubborn and hard to work with, he still respects him on some level. He knows that Bullock wants what is best for the city, and that he believes in keeping crime down while keeping innocent people safe. They both have questionable ways of working with the law too. Bullock can be slimy, sneaky, and willing to break some of the rules. So can Batman. But one major difference is that Bullock is an official employee, while Batman isn’t. Yet another thing that he is incredibly proud of. He also seemed to assume that Batman wouldn’t ever bother helping out someone like him, as if they were enemies. He didn’t seem to understand that Batman wants the same basic things that he does. The two could probably work pretty well together if they tried. And I’m not going to pretend that Batman can’t be just as stubborn as Bullock. He’s the protagonist, so we may not notice it as much (we get more insight on him), but we are sure to notice a lot of Bullock-like qualities that he possesses as we move much further into the DCAU, when he meets up with some future protagonists. Batman can be a dick, guys. But that’s a discussion for another day. I’ll just leave it with saying that I think as Batman gets more jaded and as things around him start changing, he gets much more disgruntled.

“Why’d you stick your neck out like that to help me?”

“We may have different ways of enforcing the law, but we both believe in it.”

Speaking of disgruntled, Killer Croc makes his first appearance here, and it is pretty satisfactory. When I first saw this episode (my dad watched it with me, by the way, alleviating the pain of him only seeing I’ve Got Batman in My Basement and The Forgotten prior), I already knew who Croc was, and had already seen an episode with him, so the buildup was not nearly as strong. For Char, I think it was more elevated, as I don’t think she was expecting him. She was familiar with his Suicide Squad design, though, so it was hard for her not to compare it with this more ugly one. Yeah, I don’t know about Croc’s design. I’m pretty used to it, so it doesn’t bother me, but I have heard others say that they’re not really a fan. He only kinda looks crocodile-like, and I think that is because of the more subdued, realistic approach that this show was initially going for. I tend to prefer the hulking mass that we get to see in Arkham Asylum, which is significantly scarier. In this episode, we see the fear in the convicts’ eyes as they witness the strange-looking, reptilian man, and I think that it ends up being a little anticlimactic, especially since he doesn’t kill them or anything (on top of looking the way he does). Taking all that into consideration, the episode would have gotten an A most likely if the issue was fixed. Buuuut, I do like Croc as a villain, despite this. He has an interesting enough backstory, he creates a challenge for Batman, he has a cool habitat, and his personality is fine. He’s definitely not a sympathetic villain like Freeze or Two-Face, but Harvey Bullock was the one with the focus this time. It makes sense that Killer Croc would serve more as that scary, mysterious threat which lurks around in the water, stalking and capturing him. Too much insight can take away from the intimidation. Also, not every villain in real life has all that much depth to them. As long as the episode is still entertaining and has other qualities to take the place of the intense feels (and this episode does indeed), then it’s perfectly reasonable that not every villain in Gotham would either. Sometimes you just need an evil guy, with an evil plan, and a cool gimmick.

Oh, Spectrum is back with the animation. This is weird because, again, I thought they went under after Heart of Ice which was a handful of episodes back now. Also, this episode isn’t quite up to snuff with a lot of the things that they’ve done. I noticed some recycled animation, some weird models, and overall a cheaper-feeling quality. But it’s not Akom-level stuff either, it’s closer to Dong Yang, which is 100% fine by me. I’m trying not to be spoiled. This is a 90’s television show, aimed at kids, which had an accompanying toy line. How much can I really expect? So while not very recognizable as Spectrum, it is still beyond passable, and the directing/storyboarding was a highlight (take a look at some of the below screenshots).

Do these look like Spectrum drawings to you?

This one is a little more like it. 

I like the bit where Commissioner Gordon dumps out his nasty coffee. Another little bit of character.

Croc’s hand reaching out of the water. “Hayyyy, guys! Can I get a lift?”

This still doesn’t do the intensity of this guy’s fear any justice. His sudden gasp was one of pure panic.

These types of blue colors are incredibly common in Batman TAS. The team couldn’t always use the variety in colors that they wanted. They were pushing the budget as it was.

This section confused me a little bit. We see Bullock toss a toothpick to the ground. But later, the toothpick is treated as though Croc planted it to frame him. It must have been a different toothpick, right? This is not communicated very clearly. And I don’t know, how would Croc have known that Bullock would have a toothpick on him? How would he know that others would notice? And how well known for carrying a toothpick around is Bullock, exactly?

A great shot. 

The planted toothpick. Or maybe it’s actually the one Bullock dropped. I’m not entirely sure. 

We see lightning flash, engulfing Bullock in light. It looks awesome in motion because we don’t linger on it. Although one thing that bugs me about cartoons is that we always hear the thunder boom at the exact time that the lightning strikes, which is generally not what we experience.

Look at those reflections. Another cool use of lightning. We need a Top 10 Lightning Strikes post eventually I think. Hmm...

There was nothing like this on TV at the time.

Just an s short of being a Psycho reference.

This might be the first time that we see how the entrance to the Batcave works? Oddly, we hear the clock ticking in this scene. I wonder if the hands move. And if they do, there has to be some function to prevent the door from opening  when it reaches 12 normally. I’ll bet that Alfred is the one who has to fix the time.

I love how the camera slowly pans as we see them coming down the stairs, with the computer system in view. I’d love to hang out in the Batcave. 

Another scary Croc entrance. Fitting that this episode aired in October.

“Ah, turnips.”

Awesome shadow work. For no other reason than that it looks awesome and makes Batman look hella intimidating. This is why people fear him.

Batman smacks the plant out of his hands. Get the gross vegetables out of his face!

“I’ve got plenty of answers. .38 caliber answers.”

“You’d better hope your men are very good shots.” I’m sure you guys can come up with many alternative captions for this screenshot.

Batman’s nose is a little crazy here. He’d look more like a bird if the ears were missing. 

This scene made me chuckle. A false Harvey Dent walks in, dropping wet. Like, yup, that’s him alright. Nothing nefarious going on at all.

Gotta feel a little bad for him, even if you don’t like him.

“Alfred! You’re beautiful!” Best moment.

See, I mean, he looks okay. Just not the best Croc design out there.

Hmmm.. Recycled segment.

Now these are some Spectrum shots!

A really cool Batman entrance. 

Char’s grade: B

WHY THO?

Jesus Christ I was really hoping I’d never have to do this again. I honestly don’t know what is worse, having to watch another shitty movie or rereading my old blog posts and realizing that they were lower in quality than the movies I was reviewing. Fortunately it doesn’t really matter because I know for a fact that my -2 followers don’t seem to mind. But here I am. Once again I must swallow my pride and sumit myself to literal torture all in the name of a grade. To my suprise choosing a crappy movie was almost as difficult as watching one. So many options. So much low hanging fruit. However movies of this nature can always be a mixed bag. I remember when I first started this blog a few years ago some reviews never left my drafts because I didn't have much to write about. Sometimes a movie is so mediocre, so bad, that it can’t even excel at being an awful pile of crap. I chose to write about bad movies because I figured it would be entertaining. You’d think some films, in their own demented way, could at least entertain. But no. Can’t even get that right. I’d find myself at 2’o’clock in the morning looking at my notes only to realize that I basically wrote nothing. All I had was a lingering sense of regret and confusion; like I’d just woken up from a drunken one night stand. All I could do is ask myself, “What the hell did I just watch?” So as I revisit this deserted island I call my blog for what most likely will be the last time, I want to make sure that it is worth it. If I’m going to verbally assault a movie, I’m going to make sure it is an easy target. That was my thought process at least. I soon realized that just because a movie is easy to write about, that doesn’t mean it is easy to watch.

So what movie did I force upon my soul do you ask? Why CATS of course. Because who doesn’t like Cats? Everyone loves cats. What’s not to love about an ungrateful and rude animal that walks around your house like it owns the place. An animal that bites, scratches, and claws at anything it deems unworthy. “Let's make a movie, based off the perverted 80s Broadway production that centered around these literal spawns of Satan,” said every Hollywood executive with their head up their ass. As a matter of fact they thought it was such a good idea that they dropped 95 million U.S. dollars on it.

Now before I continue, as I typed “cats budget” in my google search bar, take a guess what came up after “cats bu..”. CATS BUTTHOLE SMELL. Are you fucking kidding me? What the hell is wrong with people? I tried recreating it in the search bar to screenshot but I couldn’t get it to come up, but trust me. I know what I saw. What is it with cat people man? Seriously. Really threw me off my train of thought.

But yeah, 95 big ones. A lot of good things could have been done with that money, but nope. We needed a live action adaptation of Cats. Did anyone who thought this was a good idea even see the play? That shit was weird. I didn’t watch it, cause, well why the hell would I?

But from the bare minimum research that I did do, the general consensus was that it was a shitty play that made lots of money because people are dumb and will watch anything. I guess producers were hoping lightning would strike twice. If you saw the play you would know that there is literally no plot. It has nothing. It is literally a bunch of weirdos dressed like anthropomorphic cats dry humping each other and singing for 2 hours. I swear its target audience had to consist of lonely 12 years old, sad housewives, and perverts. I tried watching the musical just to get a general reference of the living hell I was going to put myself in only to be utterly mortified. My eyes and ears didn’t last 5 minutes. How it made all the money it did baffles me. But I’m not here to talk about this crime against humanity, I’m here to rip into its bastard child. And boy, oh boy, is there a lot to talk about.

$14.99 in and I’m already regretting my life choices. Everything in my life has led me to this moment and I really wish I could change that. Thanks to what a box office bomb this movie was, I can’t rent it anywhere. I can only buy it. Figures. You're already off to a bad start movie. 2 minutes into the opening scene and I already hate it. People walking around on all fours in fursuits, licking their genitals, singing dancing, some crappy asymmetric musical. WHY! Oh god why did people make this? What kind of furry bullshit is this? I am going to be completely transparent. I’m writing this while I’m watching the movie. I’m not even 5 minutes in and I want to blow my brains out. This is not hyperbole, I wish it was. I can’t dude. I can’t watch this fucking movie. All the characters speak in these weird haikus with British accents. I can’t. I just can’t. I don’t know what anyone is saying half the freaking time. So many made up words and phrases. It's like the script was written by some Dr. Suess rejected. I genuinely have no idea what is going on. I was really hoping that for once one of my reviews wouldn’t sound like the rantings of a madman. But I can’t help it. This crap is rotting my brain. Seriously what is going on. Maybe I’m a simpleton who doesn’t get musicals, but I shit you not there is no plot. I have no idea what the hell is going on. How do you have a movie with no plot?

It’s just singing about being cats... and their FEET. JESUS CHRIST THEY HAVE FEET. No CGI paws. BARE. HUMAN. FEET. God why. How as an actor, do you go on set, act like a literal animal and tell yourself, “yeah this is gonna pan out great.” How did they sit down and go, “I’m going to sit here, lick a fake bowl of milk, sing and dance nonsense, then proceed to lick my non-existent cat balls.” I literally watched an actor snarl directly into the camera. When I went to find out who it was, I was unsurprised to see that all the pictures of the actors were gone. Just names. With a little digging I found out it was Ian Mckellen, you know, from Lord of the Rings. Magneto from Xmen. That Ian Mckellen. Yup, and he snarled to the camera like a cat. Anything for a paycheck right? Who am I to judge, I watched 2019’s Cats for an English class. Who is really losing here, cause frankly I don’t know anymore. If I have anything positive to say about this movie is that it has less dry humping than its source material. Key word less. I better get an A for this.

An hour into the movie and I still don’t know what the fuck is going on. Some dude in overalls is tap dancing. He's a “railway cat” cause he's a conductor or something. I physically cannot do this. I'm dying on the inside. A light inside me is slowly fading. Countless abhorrent musical numbers. Too many for a man to take. To put things in perspective, I did not like Hamilton. Did I respect it for what it was? Of course. Not my cup of tea though. Hamilton was a great musical, arguably one of the best, and I did not enjoy it whatsoever. Now here I am watching Cats. Just a little perspective.

As I came to the end of the movie I saw that I missed all kinds of things. There was a love plot, some kind of contest, and villain. But that didn’t concern me. All I could focus on was how I wasted an hour and a half of my life. 

An hour and a half wasted on this.

Do you think God left us because he feared what he created? I sure as hell do. The philosophers were right. Everyday Pantheism is making more and more sense. And if not that nihilism. God is dead. God is most certainly dead. Don’t believe me? The GIF above is all the proof you need.

I was hoping that for once one of these blogs would have some sense of conformity. Some sort of cohesion. Maybe an ounce of legitimacy. But I couldn’t. There is something about these movies that drain the life from you. Every second spent looking at my computer screen I felt brain cells dying. I might as well have drunk a whole 750 milliliter bottle of Everclear. That or bang my head against a wall for 15 minutes. Either would have been just as effective; and probably more efficient.

I thought that I could improve upon the quality of my blog. When I reread my old post I realized that they had no depth. I thought maybe it was me. Right? I was 15, What did I know about good writing? No. It never had anything to do with me. Movies like Cats are such horrendous abominations of human creation, that there is literally no way to talk about them with any form of professional effort. They are shallow. There is nothing to analyze. How can you analyze garbage? Art requires respect if it wants to be reviewed and judged accordingly. Cats and films like it don’t have my respect and never will. I type this with immense pleasure. Never again. Never will I ever put myself through this bull again. Thankfully, for the last time. I can ask Why Tho?

Underpuff 200 Follower Retrospective

Well, we’ve done it Underpuff now has 200 followers. How many of them actively follow the AU is impossible to know, but one thing is for sure. That 200 people saw my AU, and enjoyed it enough to hit follow. This means so much you can’t even imagine. No matter how you look at it, 200 people is a fuckton of people, and I couldn’t be more happy you all decided to follow this little ol’ Kirby AU. Sadly though, unlike last time, I really don’t have a way to celebrate this via a sneak peak of the next part. There also isn’t anything I particularly wanna show off either as far as roles or plot goes. So clearly the most logical thing to do is talk about my old work and laugh at it. That’s right, to celebrate this step forward, let’s take some steps backwards, and look at the hilarious atrocity that was the Underpuff Preboot.

Let’s start from the beginning. Starting from the middle was considered but I thought it was too post modern. Back in ye olden days of Sprite AUs, crossovers were just becoming a thing, the leaders of this format being Undertoad, and the now dead Smashtale.I oved the idea of crossing over Undertale with other series, and the number one AU I wanted to see happen, was of course, a Kirby AU. Every day I prayed for some kind of music track or comic part to be made for one, rather than all the vague concepts I saw thrown around from time to time. I waited an waited, but a Kirby AU never came. One day, on a Meta Knight as Mettaton shitpost on r/Undertale, I talked about this want for a Kirby AU in the comments, and some vague ideas I had for one.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Undertale/comments/4h335y/metta_knight/d2nb7p7/

As you can see things, really didn’t pan out like this, but one step at a time. After posting this comment, and reading responses to it, I came up with more and more ideas, and I even drew concept art of all the roles!

Adecryforhelp

Keel me

Kirb stomp me into the ground

LololOH GOD

JOLY SHIT

eta knig.

eta knig period.

Whispy (why) Wood(you do this to me)s

Here take this for your eyes, I bet you need it right now

But yeah, my art and design skills weren’t up to snuff at the time. I’ve obviously gotten much better, but at the time I was a full blown amateur and was blissfully unaware. Gotta love that Dunning Kruger effect huh?

But all these “ideas” and art were for nothing, as I had a shit laptop at home that couldn’t do jack shit without coming close to fucking combustion. Like, it was so bad, I used my Wii U for everything Internet related. The Internet Browser on the Wii U was a better alternative than my actual computer. Let that sink in. However, spending so much time on the Wii U would lead you to discover new games and apps when they popped up, and for me, one of those was the software called Pixel Maker. And this is where Underpuff would get it’s start.

Pixel Maker was a pretty good software. I did exactly as was advertised, allow you to make pixel art on your Wii U. I saw this as my opportunity to finally make my ideas a reality, and when I had enough money, I bought it without delay. I got started making the first stages of Underpuff. I had no way to pull straight from Undertale. I had to eyball the maps and recreate them to the best of my ability, with the Great Cave reskin aesthetic of course. When I went to make text, I tried to recreate the UT font myself, but was unable to do it. With all the pre made fonts in PM not being to my liking, and the software lacking text sizes at the time, I decided to make my own font.

This was a mistake.

It was poorly made and ugly to look at, but I used it throughout all 7 preboot parts. And since this was my own font made in PM, I couldn’t use the text tool to apply it. I had to meticulously copy paste EVERY SINGLE LETTER. It was annoying, and resulted in me despising text. But hey, it’s just the font, so long as the spritework looks good, who cares?

Anymore of that bleach leftover? It’s for me.

But yes, Underpuff, in all awfully sprited and JPGed goodness, was murder on your eyes. (And probably soul too)

Why is the file type blurry ass JPG o all things you ask? Well my fan, allow me to tell you about my process for getting Underpuff to imgur.

Step 1: Create Panel

Step 2: Go to miiverse

Step 3: Save screenshot of the panel into screenshot album

Repeat till part is complete

Step 4: Access album from browser

Step 5: Copy image url

Step 6: Paste this url into imgurs uploader

Repeat until part is uploaded

But what does this have to do with JPG? Well, the answer is that Miiverse’s screenshots save in, you guessed it, JPG! So my images were blurry not of my own volition!

But, even if the visuals are completely, 100% awful, the dialogue must at least make uop for it. Surely I didn’t stoop so low as to just slightly modify Undertale dialogue right? RIGHT?

...

God dammit.

Underpuff was a reskin to the highest degree. Character relationships, dialogue, areas, all just Undertale with a Kirby paint. That’s all it was. And I was sitting here, wondering why the hell I couldn’t break 10 upvotes on reddit. This was why, cause I was a terrible writer, artist, and typographist. But it added up to something in the end, because one day I realized this, and rebooted Underpuff into it’s current state right now. A fully fleshed out, new story, with logical relationships, and a huge focus on lore and characterization. You know why I put those on such high pedestals, because of this. Because of preboot. I don’t want anything like Preboot to ever exist again, and it’s why I want to make Underpuff as sound in the Kirby universe as I can, while still having plenty of characters to work with..

And now, I have an actual computer, that I can actually make panels with. I still go back to PM from time to time, usually for battlesprites, since I like doing those by hand, but most of my work is done on here now. The parts may come out slower these days, but that’s because actual effort is being put forth now. Everyday I think of how to improve Underpuff’s story, fix plot holes or mistakes, all so I can make what I’ve been told is the only good Kirby AU the best it can possibly be.I take my time and not try to rush parts out per month like I did, all so I can achieve the quality I want. (The Reboot battle system wouldn’t exist if I didn’t take so long on Part 2.)

While I may not get the amount of asks, fanart, or music as I would like, one thing remains true. 200 of you appreciate the new Underpuff, and the work I put in. You appreciate the fact it’s not a shitty JPG reskin. You appreciate the fact I try to be lore and characterization friendly. And I appreciate all of you, my friends and fans who support me and what I do. If it weren’t for all of you, I may have given up, but all eyes are on me, and I’m not gonna disappoint. I may be a little sappy right now, but hey, I’m a Kirby AU, gotta be somewhat wholesome right? But to all of you, whether you have been here since the preboot, or jumped on for the reboot, I just gotta say...

-Thank you, Pika

How to Use Email Images to Boost CTR

Email is one of the most effective marketing campaigns out there — in fact, the average ROI of an email campaign is 122%.

For those who aren’t afraid to take a few extra steps, email images will spice up your campaign and help your email campaign stand out.

I’m going to show you how to leverage images in email the right way.

Email Images: Yes or No?

You can use email images, but should you?

I want to start by asking a few questions, because these will help you determine if using email images helps or hurts you. Read these and answer yes or no:

Do my images support my brand?

Have I optimized the image size?

Am I using the right number of images?

Am I properly using image alt tags?

Are my emails easily accessible?

Chances are you may not even know the answer to all these questions.

If that’s the case, then you’re not getting all you can from your email images, and this guide will help you.

But it’s not quite that simple. Having email images can boost your email’s aesthetics, but how do you increase email click-through rates with images?

What Is a Good Email Click-Through Rate?

Your click-through rate is the percentage of people who click on an image, link, or video in your email to continue through to your content. The average click-through rate is around 2.5% across all industries.

This number might sound a little low, but keep in mind, we’re talking about click-through and not open rates, which is the number of people who read your email.  

Including images in your campaigns is a great way to increase engagement and improve your chances of driving traffic or even sales.

Images in Email Marketing: The Magic Ratio

Many marketers will tell you there’s a specific magic ratio of image to text, but it’s not always true. What is true is image-only emails will almost always cost you a trip to the spam folder.

Do that too much, and you’ll find your whole domain blacklisted.

That’s no good.

The ideal ratio is around 30-40% image to text. Any higher, you run the risk of triggering spam filters. Any less will make your email difficult to read.

The only way to find out what works for your audience is to test it! Use A/B testing to figure out what works and what doesn’t.

Keep Your Email Images Consistent

How many times have you searched for something on Google, found what you wanted, and clicked through to the website only to realize the link didn’t lead where you expected — at all?

It’s frustrating.

The truth is, you might be doing this to people right now without even realizing it.

Your email image needs to align with your brand and remain consistent throughout your marketing campaign.

Make sure when someone decides to open your email, it remains true to your company message, and all the emails look relatively similar.

If you’re using blue headers with a specific font in your campaign, it should match the landing page your visitor ends on.

Personalization and Targeting Are Key

Email personalization is more important than ever.

Why? 

Because there’s more impersonal spammy communication out there than ever before. Personalization changes the way your email appears based on the person you’re targeting.

Just think about it. How often have you received an email that seems like it was made for you?

Not often, right?

This is where you can get ahead of your competition by doing the things no one else is willing to do.

No product or service has “universal appeal,” so you need to narrow down your email images to a targeted audience.

According to Invesp, 59% of online shoppers find products more interesting when you personalize your marketing approach.

So, how do you personalize your email images?

Cater to Repeat Buyers

Find products people need to purchase regularly and appeal to people who bought in the past. Amazon uses this strategy, resulting in 60% conversions from their on-site recommendations.

Here’s an example from Wayfair that was based on browsing history:

Recommend New Products

Recommend products to customers based on their previous buying history. Go the extra mile and even call it “Selections for [insert name].” That strategy helps create an “in-store experience” for your subscribers.

It’s as if you went to the clothing rack and specifically picked out items you thought would look great on them!

Ask Questions

If you’re selling a service or a digital subscription, you can ask your subscribers why they haven’t made a purchase yet. Give them a chance to sound off on what’s holding them back.

Doing this not only helps the email feel more personal and intimate, but it allows you to get feedback on what you could do better.

The ALT Tag Is More Important than You Think

We all know the importance of ALT tags for website images, but what about images in email marketing?

Are you currently using ALT tags properly in your email campaigns?

When the email client doesn’t download images correctly, your ALT tag becomes your lifeline for a few big reasons:

When the email client doesn’t download the image, the ALT text displays to the email recipient.

ALT text provides context if images aren’t loading.

ALT tags make it easier for those who use screen readers and other accessible technology to understand the image.

When all else fails, the ALT tag might be the thing getting the email recipient to open.

How to Create ALT Tags for Emails?

On the back end, an ALT tag looks like this:

<img src=”youremailimage.jpg” border=”0″ alt=”How to Use Email Images in Email Marketing” width=”482px” height=”205″ />

Where it says “alt=” is where your ALT text goes. So, if an email image doesn’t load properly, that’s what will display across the email text area instead of the image.

The process of adding it might vary based on what email client you use. Here’s how to add ALT tags on MailChimp, for example.

Use the Best Format for Email Images

You have three primary formatting options for your email image. PNGs, JPEGs, and GIFs are the most common choices. Let’s look at the pros and cons of each.

PNG

Portable Network Graphics offer a large color palette, which means compressing the file size doesn’t impact the image’s resolution.

Another benefit is that you can add transparent layers, making it easy to embed the image on top of other content. This lets you blend the background image into an email with live text.

The only downside to PNGs is the file size is much larger compared to JPEGs and GIFs because of the image quality.

JPEG

JPEGs offer large image compression, but doing so impacts the quality of your image. When you reduce a JPEG image, it groups each section into larger blocks, which causes the image to become blurry — which isn’t a good look.

While these are the most common image types, I wouldn’t recommend using them for email images.

GIF

You get less color vibrance with GIFs because they use an 8-bit color palette compared to a 24-bit palette with PNGs and JPEGs.

The obvious difference is the animation effect. Using GIFs in your emails increases interactivity and can allow you to show more than one product with the same image.

How to Find the Best Email Images

Finding the right images to get your email message across is crucial. There’s a variety of different types of images you can use, and each has its own purpose. Let’s look at a few.

Charts and Graphs

Providing statistics and data is almost useless without a graphic to back it up. When you provide charts in your email to prove a point, it makes it much easier for the recipient to grasp your message.

Inside’s business newsletter has a Series A funding tracker where you can see what startups recently got funding above $5m:

This easily shows at a glance who got the largest amount of funding, by size and color.

Piktochart is an infographic tool that makes it easy to create free charts (with a watermark). Just enter the data and select the type of chart you want.

Stock Photos

Stock images are the easiest way to add images to your email marketing campaign. There’s a large assortment of sites to choose from like Shutterstock, Depositphotos, and Pixabay.

When sourcing the best image, choose something relatable to your audience. If you’re targeting middle-age moms of toddlers, find images that appeal to your demographic.

Don’t just add images to add images — make sure they have a purpose.

Screenshots

Instead of using a numbered list to explain how something works, turn the process into beautiful imagery with screenshots.

Awesome Screenshot is a browser extension on Chrome, Safari, and Firefox that makes it easy to capture screenshots directly from the browser. You can capture a whole page or a part and download it to your computer.

Personal Photos

Keeping it real and making things personal is never a bad choice. Email marketing is all about pulling back the curtain and showing people what you’re all about.

You don’t need professional photos to make sales, and the realistic and pure nature of personal photos can be what you need.

Illustrated Content

Illustrations are a nice way to expand your possibilities. While you might be able to do a certain amount of things with a product, an illustration can display limitless options while staying true to your brand.

Here’s an example from comedian Nate Bargatze announcing a drive-in tour. After this image, his email contained a text call-to-action with more information.

Consider hiring an illustrator on Fiverr or Upwork to get affordable illustrations.

User-Generated Content

User-generated content is huge. In fact, 76% of customers trust content coming from “average” people versus the brand itself.

UGC helps create trust, and it offers authority from a relatable audience. For example, imagine how an image of someone using your product in their home would outperform a stock photo or a cartoon using it.

Offer rewards to happy customers by having them upload images to social media using specific hashtags and use those images in your email marketing campaigns.

Never Send Image-Only Emails

While images are important – you should never send an image-only email.

Here’s why:

Image Blocking Is Real

If you work in the corporate world, you understand this point. Many companies block images by default, and in fact, 43% of email users have their images turned off.

So, if you don’t have your ALT text game up to par, your campaign won’t load properly.

Email Image File Size

Email image sizes can cause subscribers with slow connections to lag and become unresponsive. If your email takes too long to load, your subscribers are going to click out or even unsubscribe because they can’t get your emails to open correctly.

Email Accessibility Is Changing

More people are using voice assistants to read emails, and these do not recognize ALT text or HTML yet. So, if the user is trying to read your image-only email, you’re out of luck.

So, what’s the ideal email image format?

Background Images with Live Text

Remember earlier, when we talked about the pros of using PNG files for your email images? Here’s where this all comes together.

Background images applied as an element to the email allow you to put live text over it, providing the most accessibility. Even if the subscriber has images disabled, they’ll see the text, which ensures all your subscribers will get something from the email.

Bulletproof Buttons

Including your CTA in your image is a fatal error. If the image is blocked or doesn’t load properly, the button or CTA you have is hidden and completely missed by the recipient.

Using bulletproof buttons allows you to build the button with code, rather than images. So if everything fails and your image doesn’t load, the subscriber will still receive your text and CTA.

Conclusion

Email images are an effective strategy to increase your email campaigns’ success, but you can’t take shortcuts.

Using the right image size, format, and design is critical to ensuring your emails get delivered and get results.

Follow all of the best and worst practices outlined in this guide, and you’ll be well on your way to a higher click-through rate and a repeatable email process that will drive traffic for years to come.

The Meme and His Tutor

Part 2: The First Skype Call

Recommended Song: Fun Boys by BTS

|All Chapters|

Summary:

Let the awkwardness begin!

Genre: Fluff, comedy

Pairing: Jungkook X Reader (Y/N)

Warnings: Swearing

Word Count: 2358

Length: 2/?

You hadn’t been expecting to get a friend request on Skype, especially from the username GDNo1Fan97. But out of curiosity, you accepted it. Nor did you expect them to video call you as soon as you clicked ‘accept’. Once again out of curiosity you accepted, you wanted to know who had sent the request. Which is why when Jungkook saw you for the first time over Skype, your hair was wet and messy and you were in your fluffiest onesie. That happened to be a panda.

“HOLY SHIT!” You shouted before exiting the call.

It was Jeon Jungkook. THE Jeon Jungkook actually Skyped you. It really happened. And you had looked horrible. He called you back almost immediately.

“Soensaeng-nim! Know that already,” He said with a cheeky grin.

“Uhh…”

“Namjoon-hyung!” Jungkook shouted before turning to look at someone off camera. What followed was Jungkook spewing out a stream of Korean that led to him getting hit with a notebook.

“Jungkook-dongsaeng, gwenchanha?”

He tilted his head like a confused puppy, “Dongsaeng? Neoreul noona?” he inquired.

“Ye”

He smiled brightly at her confirmation, “Noona~” He sang. Namjoon hit him again saying something in a disapproving tone.

"Sorry about Kook. He gets excited when he finds out a woman is older than him." Namjoon explained as he moved his seat into shot of the camera so he could be seen. He took off his hat and ran his hand through his hair, then put it back on.

You blushed and tug at the hood of your onesie by habit. Who could blame you for being a little nervous? You swore at the man who was the background and wallpaper on every device you own. And then he had acted like an excitable puppy because you're older than him. As if he knows you're thinking about him, he appears again beside Namjoon who had been asking if you were OK while lost in thought.

"Uh, I'm fine. Just overwhelmed."

Namjoon looked at Jungkook while saying something that has Kook scratching the back of his neck and looking rather awkward.

"What did you say to him?"

"Just told him he should have at least messaged you first before video calling"

"Mianhae Noona-seonsaengnim"

"Can you tell him it's okay?" You say, pushing the hood off your head and smoothing down your hair.

Namjoon does so and Jungkook gives you a thumbs up, smiling so widely you feel yourself mirror his expression. You clear your throat, trying to get yourself into a more professional mentality.

"So do I have to start from basics, does he know the alphabet? I know he already knows pardon-"

"PARDON!" He looked impressed with himself for understanding what you had said.

You laughed at Jungkook's excited outburst.

"He knows the alphabet. Knows how to pronounce written words but has no idea what they mean."

"So it's word association we need to start on then, flashcards and the like."

Namjoon nodded in confirmation, "We won't do much today just because I figured we could get to know each other first. Is that okay?"

You smile brightly, more than grateful considering how out of the blue the situation was.

"That's perfect! I'll need time to gather resources and activities-"

"I'll set up a shared folder on Google. We can use that instead of the chat so nothing gets lost."

"It might be difficult, my Korean is very limited."

"That's why I'm here. I am translator and your teacher."

Jungkook did that thing he does when he's jealous, tongue in cheek. He started talking, you could only understand a few words here and there but his tone showed his agitation about being left out the conversation. You watched helplessly as Namjoon gestured between the camera and himself and Jungkook. The younger nodded along, expression relaxing once Namjoon has explained the situation. He said something back to Namjoon who turned to look back at the camera as Jungkook watched expectantly, leaning forward in his seat.

"Jungkook wants to know more about you. So why don't you tell us a little about you"

You felt yourself blush as you were put on the spot.

"Um well I'm one of seven kids-"

"ONE OF SEVEN?!" Namjoon turned and told Jungkook.

"Jinjja?!" He looked at you amazed, "Deo malhaejwo! (Tell me more)"

You giggled at his wide eyes.

"I'm currently at college studying creative writing but I want to move to Korea and teach English."

Upon hearing his country, Jungkook clung to Namjoon’s arm, waiting to know what you said.

He beamed at you once told, "Cool! Noona is smart!"

Your blush deepened at his compliment, you were never really good at taking them so you tended to ignore them.

"My hobbies are reading, writing, drawing, video editing and... singing"

You shyly looked down. Namjoon was quick to relay what you said and you heard Jungkook's happy clapping causing you to look up again. A giant smile had plastered itself across his face.

"Me too!" He said, "Video- Youtube-"

He looked to Namjoon for help.

"Kookie has been into video editing too recently."

You smile back at him, hoping you didn't look like an idiot from how often you had been doing so. Your cheeks were starting to hurt.

"Daebak! I saw his birthday video to Yoongi on twitter. I was really impressed"  

Namjoon was smiling as he told Jungkook what you thought about his video, who bounced up and down in his seat. You never thought he would be so excitable. More than once he had described himself as bad at expressing himself but he seemed to have no problems doing so during the video chat.

"You're in your last year of college?" Namjoon asks.

You smile, "Ye, I'll be off to university in a few months."

"University?" Jungkook pipes up in clear English followed up something else in Korean.

You watch Namjoon chuckle quietly before turning to you, and... Was that a smirk on his face?

"He said you should go to university here, not in England then you could teach him properly"

"Studying over in Korea would be too expensive for me as much as I'd love to. I'd need to buy plane tickets, pay tuition fees, sort out living arrangement, buy a visa. And if I get a visa it would have to be a study one which means I wouldn't be able to work. I'd have to live off my savings."

Namjoon frowned then told Jungkook who looked disheartened.

"Mianhaeyo." Jungkook apologises and you offer a small smile.

"Kamsahamnida."

Namjoon looked between the two of you, the small smile playing on his lips disappearing as he looked at something past the computer screen. You hear another voice and looked to Jungkook who was scowling at something or someone off camera.

"Sorry, y/n. I didn't think we'd be interrupted."

"What is it? What's happening?" You asked, feeling concern bubbling away in your gut at seeing the younger of the two's scowl.

"Some of the members are here."

Suddenly there's a hand filling the screen. You notice the rings.

"Jimin-oppa?"

The hand disappears only to be replaced by a shock of pink hair as Jimin looked at you from upside down and smiled.

"Oh, yeppeoyo!"

You hear a smack and Jimin moves to reveal Jungkook, brows knitted, hand still raised.

"Yah!"

You laugh at their antics.

"YAH!" Jungkook shouted again then continued to mutter something under his breath, arms crossed and pouting like a child. What he muttered had the others laughing.

"What did he say?"

"Swears are for a future lesson y/n." Namjoon said, waving a hand dismissively at the two of them.

You see Jimin appear behind them, crouching behind their two chairs.

"Is he staying?" You wondered and Namjoon said something to Jimin who was being shoved by Jungkook.

"Go, go!" Jungkook shooed him.

Jimin smirked but waves goodbye. "Annyeong, y/n!"

"Annyeong Jimin-oppa" you said, waving back.

"Noona... Noona. Noona~!" Jungkook's voice making you look his direction.

Yep. Still looked like a grumpy child. You found it kinda endearing.

"Well someone is attention seeking"

"In his defence, he was the one that got your skypeID in the first place."

You turned your attention to Jungkook, thinking of something you could ask that he might understand.

"W-what did you do today?" You see his brow furrow, but Namjoon’s lips were sealed.

"Uh, dance practice?"

It's worded like a question and you feel your lips quirk into a smile when he started to dance the chorus to Blood, Sweat and Tears. But that smile was gone when he does the final part of the chorus choreo, in which he grabs his crotch. Your face was burning in... embarrassment?... as Namjoon laughs at your reaction. Jungkook appeared to be smirking behind him. You wondered how red your face had gone but didn't have to wonder long as Skype dinged to inform you that you had received a message. A screenshot of your tomato red face.

"What the fuck?" You yelled before quickly covering your face with your hands.

Ding! Another screenshot: eyes wide, mouth hanging open. Namjoon was laughing, hunched over in his chair and clutching his stomach. You narrowed your eyes at Jungkook who was grinning back, chin resting on his fist. He looked innocent. Too innocent. You remembered that you could turn off your camera, so that's what you did. They couldn't screenshot you if they couldn't see you. You laughed at their confusion when their screen went blank, you took the opportunity to screenshot them as well. But as you were about to send it back you heard Jungkook speaking. The pacing of his words making his panic clear. Your skype dinged again.

The message said "Turn your camera back on, Jungkook is worried"

"Will you screenshot me?" You typed back.

Three little dots appeared for a brief second before bursting and a smile sad face stared back at you.

"No, Noona!"

You clicked the camera button, revealing yourself again. You screamed. Why was he so close to the camera?

"He thought it was broken." Namjoon clarified.

You crumpled over in laughter. The shit quality of the WebCam distorting his face. He looked like a bird.

"My god. He looks like a seagull!" You managed to get out between laughs, feeling slightly light headed.

"Ayo, Jeon Sigul introduces the second audition"

It appeared you had accidentally activated his meme mode by mentioning what was originally going to be his stage name. Even Namjoon appeared to be dying of laughter in the corner. Jungkook sat down again and his smirk reappeared.

"Sigul!" He pointed at himself. "Hyung, Sigul!"

Namjoon shook his head before falling off his chair with a small yelp.

"Is he okay?" You ask Jungkook who was looking between you and Namjoon.

"He okay...uh, tears... Hyung cries."

Before you could stop yourself you practically yelled "Aw" at his broken English. Needless to say he looked a little surprised. You flush pink again and resist the urge to pull your hood down over your face.

"Cute." You mumble.

He smiled, "Jimin Hyung right... Noona yeppeoyo!"

"Aniya. Nan an yeppeo suga eopsseo (No. I am not pretty)." You disagreed.

How many times had you blushed already? You had lost count. And in your rush to say he was wrong, you forgot to talk politely.

Jungkook frowned. "Ye"

"Aniya"

"Yeeee"

"Aniyaaaa"

The two of you continued like that until Namjoon interrupted. "HAJIMA! Neoneun eolin-i cheoreom! (Stop it! You're like children!)"

You looked at Jungkook who looked at you. He quirks a brow.

"Mianhaeyo." You say to Namjoon with a slight tilt of your head.

"You two are similar."

"Similar? How are we similar?" Your tone showed that your confusion was genuine. You had never thought of yourself being similar to Jungkook. Though he lived the life you had always wanted as child.

"Just..." Jungkook was frowning as you two speak and Namjoon puts an arm around him as if to say he has nothing to worry about. "You both seem like you have a similar sense of humour."

"I guess we may do, in certain areas." You didn't resist the urge to put your hood up, hiding your face and the small grin that had appeared.

"GWIYOMI! PANDA! PANDA!" Jungkook was once again bouncing in his seat, pointing at the screen. Though, it looked like he was pointing at the camera.

You pulled the hood down further and sunk lower into your chair. "I hate myself."

"No no no. No hide Noona" You peeked up to see Namjoon smiling affectionately at Jungkook, who appeared to have gotten out of his seat to kneel closer to the screen without blocking your view of Namjoon. It was almost like he thought he could look under your hood by doing so.

"Hi," you whispered. His eyes softened, lips spreading to reveal his straight front teeth.

"Hi Noona, no hide." He said again.

You see Namjoon check his phone for something and he looked back to you with a frown.

"We're going to have to go. Isn't it late there?"

"Uh yeah. When you called I was getting ready for bed actually..."

"Ah, so we kept you up then? Sorry about that. We should arrange a more suitable time for you"

You nodded saying "I can do 9pm KST on Fridays"

Namjoon quickly relayed the conversation to Jungkook who at first looked guilty but then was enthusiastically nodding.

"He agrees that that is a good time for us too"

"I guess I'll see you next week?" You say sadly.

You can't help but want to keep talking even if it means breaking into laughter every five minutes and blushing like an idiot.

"I'll make sure to let Bang PD-nim know. Bye y/n!"

"Annyeong Noona!"

"Annyeong Namjoon-oppa, annyeong Jungkookie-dongsaeng"

Jungkook practically beamed at you for the sudden use of a nickname.

"Goodnight!" He managed to yell before the camera was shut off.

You closed Skype and stared at your laptop wallpaper; a photo of Jungkook, hair dripping with water which soaked through his white shirt and stuck his leather trousers to his thighs.

"What the fuck was that?" You whispered to yourself.

AN: Edited. @tragicshadows you can reblog now

[psycho-alchemist]

Hey, you make amazing gifs so I came to you for advice. Once I made mine, (edited with text and everything) I noticed that the sizing is off for tumblr format (360 x 189), and so it makes them a bit blurry. Is there a way to resize them so they stay the same quality on tumblr? Whatever the tumblr display size is, I don't even know. I didn't save the version without text cause I'm dumb so I have to made that work somehow too. Thanks! (Congrats on the job btw!)

Thank you! :) And thanks for coming to me for advice, it means a lot :)

You can size your gif up from its current size, but usually gifs do end up blurry when you try that. I would recommend trying the Sharpen feature first; it may help you out of the gifs aren’t too blurry! (Filter > Sharpen > Sharpen (or any of the options for sharpening, honestly)) But if that doesn’t work, then I think your best option is to remake the gifs. ;_;

Personally, I try to make my gifs a little bigger than Tumblr’s display size, because there’s less chance of them looking bad if they need to get downsized a little. That said, I’m honestly not sure what Tumblr’s display size is either? It varies by computer. The way I figured out a formula was literally by taking a screenshot and measuring the pixel size. On my laptop it comes to around 550 pixels. The key is keeping your gifs' length close to that size, so that a little stretching won’t affect their resolution. :)

The episodes I use are all 1280 x 720, so I just did a simple calculation to figure out my ratio. Since the size I needed on my old laptop was 550 pixels, I did 550/1280 to get .43, or 43%. (Basically that means that the length my gifs needed to be to look okay on Tumblr was 43% of their original length.) 

So when I converted clips to frames, I would resize them by 45%, so they’d be a little larger than the size I needed. If Tumblr needs to shrink them to fit their layout, that’s okay, but the issue arises when Tumblr needs to expand the gifs a significant amount. They end up really blurry that way.

The image size on my new laptop is 675 pixels, but just because my new laptop shrinks everything a lot. According to this post, the typical width for a photoset on your dashboard is 540 pixels. So if you make your gifs to be around that size, your gifs will look much better!

(And of course, try to make sure your source material is in 720p quality or better!)

As for your text, I’m guessing you rasterized it to the layer so it can’t be removed? For future reference, you don’t need to do that, at least if you’re using Photoshop! :) Any changes you apply to Frame 1 of your gif are automatically applied to all the other frames, so if you create and modify your text layer on Frame 1, those changes will be retained on every following frame. So you don’t really need to combine the underlying layer with the text! I used to do it too, but it’s worked against me more times than not when I’ve made mistakes, so I would recommend avoiding combining/rasterizing those layers if you don’t need to. :)

I hope this helped!! It’s very likely that I wasn’t completely clear about something, so please feel free to send me another ask if you need more clarification. I’m happy to help :)

Finding Choice Sources of Guitar Lessons for Kids Online

A few of my favored guitar lesson sources for youngsters that deviate from the typically affordable and pandering "kids guitar" website, providing a revitalizing angle.

Guitar Lessons for Kids Banner Picture

A lot of kids benefit from participation in the arts, especially kids that are right-brained and also talented in the more creative and optimistic areas of study. Even my two year old child, who has no artistic aspiration, likes making noise with a musical instrument. In some way, he knows there's more to it than just causing a raucous, even if that's all he's doing now.

And also as those of us that grew up in the '80s and also '90s are having our very own kids, we're getting to see them take rate of interest in the tools that we liked growing up.

The guitar was, and also is continuing to be, among the leading selections for both generations, in spite of what the Washington Post may think.

Regarding guitar lessons for kids and also young novices, I'll begin with a fast checklist of what I'm mosting likely to advise:

6 GUITAR LESSON & SOURCE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR KIDS.

Guitar Techniques Novice Degrees I & II →.

Guitar Gateway Training Courses by Michael Palmisano →.

Little Children Rock TrueFire Program →.

Guitar Lesson Academy by Nate Savage →.

Justin Sandercoe's JustinGuitar.com →.

Center Guitar →.

I have actually built this short article with my own personal touch, to highlight and suggest what I believe are a few of the absolute finest resources for youngsters guitar lessons on-line, without regard to affiliate revenue or subjective prejudice.

As a basic practice, a few of the guitar lesson websites we advise are associates of GC, while others are not. I don't make referrals based on that difference.

When it pertains to kids, I assume it's specifically essential that we stay clear of bad financial investments in their music passions. Because a kid's mind is fickle as well as short-tempered. They have little patience when it concerns awaiting something to generate outcomes or entertain them. Hence, it is necessary that, if you're going to spend for guitar lessons for your kid, you pay for the ones that are going to provide the outright finest value and also return on your financial investment.

I'll advise four paid as well as 2 complimentary choices. Two of them are affiliate programs of Guitar Chalk that I regularly advise, and also the other 4 are simply resources that I can guarantee directly as well as recommend without obtaining any kind of kickback.

All 6 of these guitar lessons meet the adhering to requirements:.

Beginner-friendly, kid-friendly and also quickly understood by ages 7 as well as up.

An "own pace" and also on-line knowing design.

Avoids blasphemy and also "PG-13" material, songs or lyrics.

Can be conveniently accessed online as well as on a selection of devices (iPad, iPhone, and so on).

WHAT AGE IS THIS MATERIAL ADVISED FOR?

As I stated, it's hard to get a young child to focus on anything for a substantial length of time. In my experience, seven years of ages is the absolute youngest I would certainly desire my kid to be prior to I would begin spending either time or cash in any type of kind of formal guitar lessons.

Certain, they can involve with a tool before this age. Nonetheless, it's hard to discern the difference between actual rate of interest and fidgeting or fleeting intrigue.

Creative play, while present at an earlier age in almost all youngsters, does not necessarily transfer right into an innovative passion in music.

At seven years of ages, youngsters are starting to build more eager passions and capabilities, which indicates you can start there when you're considering obtaining them involved (or encouraging an existing passion) in an instrument. From that factor on, you'll be able to much more plainly determine what your child is actually thinking about, as opposed to simply observing creative or creative play.

Though some would disagree, I 'd set bench at the 7 year mark, or higher, depending on your scenario and also your kid's character.

A PLEASE NOTE ABOUT OTHER WEBSITE'S CONTENT.

It's important to mention that every one of the websites suggested in this post are outside the territory of Guitar Chalk and are completely conditional at any moment as well as for any type of reason.

While I have actually verified the content of each website is suitable for kids based on my best estimate (I've even emailed the website proprietors directly, requesting a family-friendly thumbs-up) I can't predict your very own values as a parent or the feasible addition and adjustment of content these websites may execute in the future.

While I'm dedicated to providing you the very best feasible options and also advise products or resources that I recognize with, neither I neither the Guitar Chalk brand name births any type of duty for content that you may locate unacceptable, either now or in the future.

Why We're Seeking Alternatives.

The trouble with a lot of online guitar lessons for youngsters is that they're usually extremely inadequate in regards to compound and content top quality.

Take the adhering to screenshot, as an example:.

While the material of the above website is good, the website itself is fairly unexciting as well as not detailed. Also as an one decade old, I would have found this kind of point rather objectionable as well as uninteresting. It's far better to prevent placing your kid in front of something that makes them seem like a kid, merely due to the fact that it will often make them somewhat less determined.

As such, I 'd recommend preventing sites that are styled and branded like the above example. They have a tendency to be dated and doing not have substantive material.

This particular website is complimentary, which makes it a little bit more useful. Though there are still much better totally free options.

Alternatives to what?

I likewise wish to clear up that we're not just discussing web sites or on the internet guitar lessons that are choices to other poor sites.

These are additionally options to in-person guitar lessons, tutoring or grouped children guitar classes, which have a tendency to be expensive and tougher to stick with continually. While some parents may choose the individual aid of an actual educator (a lot more on this later) most children maturing in the electronic age will certainly have a much easier time staying devoted to something they can access conveniently on a computer system or a phone. It may not be one of the most wholesome-sounding principle, however it holds true.

This is much more true if your youngster is shy and also more probable to flourish as a self-motivator.

Online educational services are much better for ...

Introverts.

Self-motivated learners.

Digitally-minded kids.

Do not assume that being withdrawn is a negative. This just means your kid will certainly be stimulated by being alone and also functioning on their own, in contrast to being propelled right into a social atmosphere where they're currently awkward before even having to think of learning a tool.

We'll consider alternatives to the more conventional tutor and also guitar teacher-style discovering techniques, along with the poor-quality kids guitar http://jamguitar.com/online-guitar-lessons-for-kids internet sites.

Paid or Timed Free Test Options.

Among the most effective methods to obtain your children started with online guitar lessons is to make use of a time-limited totally free trial from an established guitar lesson website. While some of these web sites are better-suited for sophisticated or older guitarist, much of them are better-equipped to show children than the child-specific websites, merely as a result of their scope as well as broad magazine of content.

Mostly all of them give some type of time-limited cost-free trial that will certainly permit your child to obtain some experience with professional-grade lessons without you having to spend any type of cash.

VAN ELSWYK JAMES Spends 1M per month on Lead Gen MEDIA BUYING EXPERT AND CEO/FOUNDER OF PURPLE LEADS

James Van Elswyk has had a crazy journey from a one-man affiliate to now overseeing 30 full-time employees. He started by following his instinct and moved to Israel to be closer to a Facebook office. He then trained a team of media buyers that spend up to a million a month on Facebook and natives per year.

With a background in teaching sales people, as well as his own team, he started to share how he has built his team, how he optimizes and how he scales campaigns.

Seeing a hole in the market for relevant, actionable education he decided to create “learning by a learner” where it’s no fluff.

Just “copy and paste” techniques and the reasons they make him money.

JAKE 100M Instagram Followers FOUNDER OF FIGETLY

After he saw how cheap and effective the traffic was with influencer marketing, Jake made a huge leap, going “all in” on building both is own brands and helping other brands build a following.

He decided to move away from building “themed pages” towards helping personal brands grow their following. This led Jake to grow @cleverinvestors Instagram to 1 million followers in just under a year while driving revenue the entire time.

After spending time in the info space, Jake felt the bug to push products and after building a network of close to 100 million followers he was able to leverage that whenever a brand had need of it.

He’s become an expert at building themed influencers, micro-influencers and viral algorithm tricks. He was so successful that he made fidget spinners go viral and built the most well-known fidget spinner brand at 0-270k in just two months!

Leveraging the brand he built, Jake played a key role in getting Fidgetly’s big break into big-box retailers such as Best Buy, Target and Brook Stone.

As of today, he’s running million-dollar campaigns for up-and-coming brands through A-list and B-list celebrities.

SANDLIN RONNIE XX Million Spent on his words MASTER COPYWRITER

Ronnie Sandlin is a master copywriter who has built multiple 7-figure online businesses leveraging his high-level persuasion strategies.

His approach is to take advantage of evolutionary biology and create copy that makes his offers psychologically irresistible.

He’s taught countless people his effective and ethical strategies to creating copy that converts and creates sustainable windfall profits.

MR. X You will be shocked Mr. X began his career as a millennial consultant for PepsiCo Restaurants focused on filling their stores with younger families. He then began media buying on behalf of Apple’s team in Los Angeles and was a part of launching both the iPhone 7 and iPad Pro.

He co-founded and accelerated www.fidgetly.com (largely due to the trend and was the first to launch that initiative back in 2017) and then parlayed that into working with a big time DR team under Tim Burd and he now sits in a nice middle area between a great content/DR shop and a pure performance media buying team he’s been building.

His expertise is in ecommerce, mainly consumer goods, but is currently leaning towards consumables as he has seen firsthand how that plays a huge role in raising LTV. He is also working with 7 figure dropshipping brands as well as established brands like Pupsocks, 5.11 Tactical, Qalo, diffeyewear and many more. SETTING AND VIBE

WE DON’T WANT YOUR DAMN MONEY GAIN ACCESS There are 3 reasons I Am ok with such a crazy return policy

1 I have an ethics and pride, a good product, and I’m already make money doing as opposed to teaching. I’d rather refund someone then feel I did someone wrong or have some have a bad opinion of me.

2 I know my shit. I teach my employees to make me money using these techniques and methods. So, I know it works and I know how to teach it.

3 I don’t talk “out my ass” by giving poorly researched opinions. If I don’t know something I simply say “I don’t know.”

If I’m profitable in an area of media buying or business but not best in class I don’t feel I am qualified to charge for my advice.
