Of course the "@" sign is a rune! I cast with it all the time. xD

As do I, although I use

As do I, although I use other runes to cast off the @ one more often than not, for the @ is the sign of Jabbera, the god of wasteful text message and spammage.

haha

the runes of the new age, all hail the holy @ with its companions #,%,^,&,* and the most important one of all $

IanPhanes's picture

this really could work

There are 32 "runes" on my keyboard. That gives us four aettir [sp?].

Now we need someone to assign meanings for each of them. Anyone want to give it a go?

P.S.: Yes, I'm serious. I do think that it would be possible to create a meaningful and workable symbol system using punctuation.

Wow...

Oh my gods! You did all that of the top of your head? I stand in awe of you.*bows* Nice work with matching, by the way. Runes for the age of technology.

nice one

thats class.

IanPhanes's picture

color me impressed

I think it could work. I'll have to figure out what medium to use for them, then try them out.

Maybe Othello pieces? The same character would be on both sides of the piece, in it's bright and dark aspects!

peirigill's picture

*

aw, shucks... thanks, y'all. It was fun.

If you do Othello pieces, make sure you mark it so you can tell the top of the rune from the bottom. Otherwise, you won't be able to tell the difference between < and >, [ and ], and so on.

Zombie Bear's picture

well

useing a random number generator and some ascii values we can now create rune casting on a whole new level of geek.

chaoticpix93's picture

Yeah, but...

If you really wanted to be cool, get an old keyboard from like the thrift store. Take said symbols OFF the keyboard... although the program would be awesome too!

*goes off to think about how that would work*

Nice to see other cyber geeks around. We rule!

@

Well, runes are appropriate for Rogue-type characters...

The experiment has begun. One million keyboards, one million monkeys. Welcome to the world wide web.

demariea_the_midget's picture

le-marquis-comte's picture

OH VICTOR

victor is so cute! he's my favourite character!

peirigill's picture

@

One more reason for me to empathize with Victor... especially after Shivian e-mailed me to say that I don't need to put random punctuation in the subject lines of all my posts.

I like to think of them as little tidbits of webizen haiku. ;?)

PaganBear, how about treating "@" as the avatar of Hestia? It's the marker that shows where your home is... I like the idea of my e-mail provider as my electronic "hearth."

Deepest apologies for the vacation

Welcome back everyone! I see many faces I remember and tons more new to me! Welcome back veterans and glad to have you newbies!

My deepest apologies for the strip’s long vacation. To not get into much detail, thankfully my feet are back underneath me again and I’m hopefully in a place where I can create the strip on a regular basis again. Currently there is a (huge) void in the strip (from August 4th to November 3rd) – I will try to refill this with content, but I do not want to promise what I am unsure I can deliver. If I do, you’ll be the first to know!
