Staring At My Own Grave

I did this one afternoon this week:

http://shadsie.deviantart.com/art/Screw-Them-All-561126161

I am thinking, when the election-season starts getting heated and the signs start going up of making some of my own signs to stick around the neighborhood to make people laugh. In any case, I haven't had much luck sharing on Facebook yet (few people know me there and I just had to take my status off Friends Only because I forgot I had that on there, so I don't know if the post even got to be public after I did that).

I rather like the character-piece, Screwy.

No, the party I founded with my man doesn't have any objectives - this is our only message, a one-off joke.

Enjoy, or don't. We're screwed either way.

I think "screw them all" is a bit too obvious. The one with the simple screw is better in my opinion as it could be mistaken for an actual logo from a distance until you take a closer look. Still better than my own sorry unfinished attempt at satire.

It is pretty much an inside-joke between my guy and me. I just did this up in Adobe Illustrator the other evening for bit of bored-fun. So, it's not really "for" anything, seriously.

Fine I just take everything way too seriously especially politics. I though you wanted to know what others thought so I wrote what I did.

[up][up] You're the one who posted it on a crit forum, dude.

(Also, she's right. It would be much stronger without the text.)

I'm surprised at how many people on this forum seem to think I'm male. This isn't the only thread where I've been called "he' or a "dude." Am I coming across as guy-ish, I wonder?

Anyway... I'm sorry if you caught this before editing. I keep forgetting that the TV Tropes forum is fairly serious about any troper-work posted around here and, in this case, I forgot to limit my posts to "works in progress I'm really serious about" this time. I thought that I'd just share a joke and amuse people and forgot that this place is very "crit" on the works-sub-forums.

I don't know how to make it work without some text. People wouldn't know what it's supposed to mean, given that this isn't a well known (or even actually existing outside of two people) party. Again, this isn't a serious work - if anyone here thinks that it can be tweaked and sent off to some actual humor sites or mailed to Stephen Colbert or something, we can make this work together.

I know with other people who have seen it - some people seem to like the plain screw better. My hubby likes the Screwy character (because it was his original idea and I did this for him to make him laugh).... plain text, no text... I'd go through all kinds of varients if this were an actual graphic design project for a client or company.

As it is, I am unlikely to change it unless someone wants me to make something serious out of it.

[up] I don´t know. I get mistaken for a dude online unless I am being obviously girly. Hell I´ve even been called a f*g++t! Guess if you don´t have pink sparkles everywhere and talk about flowers, romcoms, babies and periods they´ll assume you´re a guy. Sorry off topic.
