I just went through the video interface at PeterCoffin.com and shut off any videos that prominently featured my ex-girlfriend. It’s such a weird feeling, it was like looking at the past two years of my life (because there literally are videos from nearly two years ago) and saying, “well, forget that!”
I’m enjoying being single and not having to report to/please anyone. It’s allowing me to focus on this monumental task of creating the stuff I do, but looking back and seeing when things were good – when she would still say the big l-word with no prompting – it’s weird. Not that I’m sad; in fact, it kind of makes me think “well, compared to that, things had gotten pretty bad.” And it’s good that I am not putting myself through that anymore.
It’s quite odd. I really haven’t been depressed over the whole thing. About a month ago, I was a total wreck but I am actually pretty damn good now. In a way, I am relieved. Re-born, even.

Well, I'm officially endorsing a candidate (yes, I am enough of a douche bag to do that). I will be behind Barack Obama in '08, because he is pissed off. He is the only one of the candidates that is actually pissed. You can hear it in his voice. He's not one of those assholes that has spent their whole life choking down old people's tax-supported cocks to get where he is. He's a progressive, forward-thinking person that actually cares about long-term sucess instead of superficial short-term solutions. Read his shit at BarackObama.com.
Also, if you are like me, you will
donate some cash to the man's campaign. There's a lot to do to beat the Omega Bitch - and that is just for the Democratic nomination. Then he has to beat the Republicans. Well, that probably won't be too hard.
Not that I am a Democrat. In fact, I don't like 99.99% of Democrats. I just like this guy. He's the only politician that has been pissed off about something that doesn't relate to his pockets and how much money is in them that I have seen in my lifetime.

Man, guys. I'm working on a new cartoon right now. I had to take a break to cool off. Working on cartoons is kind of stressful. If I had my way, I'd do my recording and hand it over to someone who was good/ at animation and get something up the next day.
In reality, it usually takes me a couple of days to do a cartoon. Which really sucks when I am trying to be topical. It's not like I have a weekly timeslot that people wait for and think "I can't wait to here x show's comments on this week's news - ho ho!"
I pretty much work in a medium where if you don't do it NOW, it's old. Which sucks when figuring out what to be doing.
So I will be hitting up Halo 3's madness next. You'll probably see the cartoon either tomorrow or Friday.

MESSAGE:
i need some advice my ex gfs going to the home comeing dance & shes a fucking bitch is there any thing i can do?RESPONSE: I would say it boils down to three choices: A) go and avoid her, B) go with someone hotter, or C) don't go.
Now, choice A kind of sucks. Going to a dance alone is boring as hell unless you're a player and (not to be insulting in any way, but) you probably aren't if you are asking someone like me for advice on a situation such as this.
Choice B is where you need to concentrate your efforts if you really want to go to this thing. Find a really good looking chick and go with her. It's ok to be superficial in high school - nine times out of nine you don't end up with your high school sweetheart. So find some hot girl, talk her up really nice, and rub it in your mean ex's face. She will be pissed.
I would personally go with choice C, though, as nothing in high school honestly matters - just that you passed. That is the only thing anyone of any importance will look at in your future.

Message: That is very mean of u to put tht osoma video because I am muslim and no we don't want everyone to convert, dumbass. We respect all religions and non-religions. Tha's what the Qran says and if we discard that's a sin. Okay, so get your facts straight Peter. I reccomend that u delete that video and make a new one undiscriminating to any religion or belief. Got it,get it,good. JACKASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Response:I think you're a total idiot if you think that I am implying Osama represents all Muslims. Fuck you and everyone who is like you - too stupid to realize the difference between a joke on on person who is the biggest asshole on the planet (fighting holy wars that aren't actually endorsed by a faith/culture/government/anyone) and a bigoted tirade. I will not take down this video and I will never make a politically correct video that doesn't discriminate against anyone. In fact, I will discriminate against EVERYONE (including myself) because no one fucking does anymore. No one questions anything and no one says "that is wrong." People like you make it easy for anyone of an evil moral slant to get away with anything because everyone has to be tolerant of everyone and everything.
No. I don't have to be tolerant of ANYTHING. I, however, AM tolerant of people's color and beliefs up until the point where action based on beliefs messes with someone else's beliefs, intrude on someone's freedom, or attempt to scare them into submission. If you fuck with OTHER people's beliefs - if you intrude on the freedoms of others - you deserve the worst. People like you don't believe that. People like you don't separate religion from religious fanaticism - not out of willingness to let someone get away with something, but rather out of sheer trained ignorant political correctness - you just defend a faith when I make fun of a person.
Jack Clain, you are an idiot. I am sick of people like you. I exist to counteract you. Good evening.

Alright, guys. I think it's time I just sat down and layed out everything planned for the site. Obviously, more videos. That is going to be the staple of PeterCoffin.com until I'm dead.
But I think the big thing is going to be the radio network I am going to be creating with a friend and a programmer that I need to find. Any programmers out there need to get into contact with me ASAP. Mail me via the link on top of PeterCoffin.com or hit me up on MySpace. Either way is fine - but this is going to be big and profitable.
The idea of the network is to be the worlds first completely free, uncensored, all-technical-stuff-taken-care-of, broadcasting system that does not require you to have a giant internet connection. Everything you need to broadcast a show (minus physical equipment such as a mixer or microphones and, well, ASCAP liscensing if you want to play big-label tunes or something) will be provided in a compact piece of free software.
Once the network is stable and has some people listening, we will begin rolling out original/featured programming on a flagship station. Including a new morning radio show hosted by myself and my friend Brad. Think my old internet show, SHOW?, but good (and with a co-host and a different title that will remain secret for now). All technical issues will be taken care of by then, we will have at very least a small studio cooked up, and we will begin broadcasting.
It is going to innovate by being the only well-put-together internet radio network that is completely free to everyone involved and doesn't put server load on anyone. The only thing is that we need a programmer. If you are one, GET AHOLD OF ME!

Well, I came up with and recorded a great song about Britney Spears, but I really can't come up with a video for it. I had an idea, but it would have taken a very long time to do and time is of the essence with the pop culture videos.
So I'm going to turn to an easy target: Osama Bin Laden. I have never really made a video about him, other than the intro to The Stupid Show: The American Dream, our DVD that cost as much as we made off it. In a matter of about a second, we animated some very offensive stuff. It was funny, though.
But I think now is a good time to go after Big Bin. He's back in the public eye with videos, he's trying to get people to turn Muslim, and he still sucks.
So expect that later in the week.
By: Peter | Wednesday, September 12, 2007 at 8:37 AM | |
Got the song recorded today for tomorrow. Hopefully nothing happens during Britney's performance tonight. Hopefully she goes out and does what she set out to do as good as she can. Which isn't good, mind you. But I don't want any screw ups because I wrote AND RECORDED the song already - and based entirely on her just going out and sucking like only Britney Spears can.
The song is basically a "don't forget that chick is nutso" song.
By: Peter | Sunday, September 9, 2007 at 12:05 PM | |
Well, guys, here we go. I have the framework set. Looks like another song coming up. A song about Britney Spears at the the VMAs. No doubt a huge disappointment for all those who want to see some more silly street stuff. Honestly, I don't want to do any street stuff right now, though. That stuff is hard to pull off nowadays.
Tom Green and Jackass have kind of left their mark, you know? I mean, there is going to be more of those kinds of pieces from me in the future, but that isn't the focus right now. I will say some of the ideas I am working on as far as those ideas go are awesome, but I think they are going to be put together at a later time. I am hoping in time for the big DVD, though.
I don't want to do them with shitty equipment, though. PeterCoffin.com has been running on some pretty shitty equipment filming-wise for the past year. Not that I am not thankful for the kindness that I have been allowed to use the equipment by those who own it, but it doesn't do the trick as far as this site goes. Especially when you go into the realm of the DVD, where when you pop it into your DVD player, it needs to look like... good or something.
So that is probably November's goal: new camera. Then probably a quick push to get any possible street stuff then December for a DVD release. You see, my entire life has been changed and I won't go into detail on that. But plans have changed and my focus is now clear: this is going to be my job in a couple years. I am going to be filthy rich off this crap, too. But I have to work my ass off to get where I will be able to spend less time on this and take 3 week vacations to Belize, Japan, and Austrailia. And everywhere else. I want to see every damn place on this planet before I keel over, so there's that.
Just know that I am still a man in love. I just realize I have to be me, too.
By: Peter | Saturday, September 8, 2007 at 8:24 PM | |
Today, I feel re-invigorated. I am not the same person I was a month ago - or even two weeks. I don't want to say anything about my relationship, because quite frankly I have no idea how that is going to end up. If I were to come out and say "things are great" or "things are terrible," I'd be exagerating.
I'm re-discovering what it means to love me, though. I'm hanging out with friends, trying new things, trying to develop some other things (hopefully some new radio stuff; I miss the hell out of radio). But I'm standing on my own two feet now and it's feeling good.
So now I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to make fun of Britney Spears's return to the public eye coming up on Sunday at the VMAs. I'm trying to figure out how to counter-act her publicity. That woman needs to go away, I think. She's got her cash. Just pay attention to your kids, lady. Try to make sure they don't end up shaving their heads to get you to look their way. Teach them some morals and some sense.
Not that anyone close to the head-shaver reads the drivel I write. Or will watch whatever I make - even if Myspace features it. Not to get so negative, though.
But I do feel like a lot of what I am doing is negative, however for a positive reason. I kind of hope that through what I am doing, people stop worshiping these celebrities and start thinking a little more. If a few more people start to think "well, maybe these people don't know everything," I'll feel good about myself.
And then the random silly things I do are something I hope people see and think about being a bit more carefree. Which is some advice I have come to realize I need to take. Welcome to a new era, guys.

Smell My Underwear is the message board again, due to the fact that the myspace group apparently gets even less people checking it. I'm not sure if there really should be a forum here... it doesn't get much activity. What does everyone think?
By: Peter | Saturday, September 1, 2007 at 11:09 AM | |
Hey guys. I'm just kind of reporting in. Making sure people know I'm not dead (which should piss some people off, so naturally I have to check in). I'm really enjoying this time away from the news, from the "what's next" outlook I've developed.
I'm kind of thinking things might be a bit more laid back around the site. I used to be a very laid-back person and really had a much better time with stuff. I've had some major personal issues these past couple weeks.
I no longer live with my girlfriend, however we have been seeing each other and things are feeling much better. We're going to cook dinner with each other on Sunday and I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am to see her each time I see her. It's like it was when I first started going out with her, which I think is kind of weird, but really cool.
My brother Patrick moved to Utah, where he got a job making music for video games. He's going to be making a ton of money doing what he loves. I'll probably get to see him next around Christmas. I'm going to miss the hell out of him, but at the same time I am so proud and so happy for him.
Those are two big ones, but not the only ones. Life is tough and you have to stay positive. You have to keep getting back up otherwise nobody will like you - including (most importantly) yourself.
I may make a new video this upcoming week, I may not. But I think it is going to be one a week for a while. But that isn't a bad thing. They'll be better, because I won't be stressed. I'll be better, too.
