I read this and at first I was thinking.. 1996-98 isn't that long ago....

> This actually pleases me quite a bit as almost all my drawings from this time are dumb noodle people with hy00j heads and terrible floppy hands (noodle people being only slightly thicker than stick people and with clothes).

I made those same noodle people.

In 1982.

Gah.
