Cthulhu Cth- Er…Uh,Yeah: Elder Signs!
Posted by Ross Rosenberg
It was a strange, unpleasant end to the previous week for me, dear readers. My guts, seized by some unholy specter, churned and roiled, swiftly and explosively expelling any and all substances that passed through their many, circuitous bi-ways. Thus it was that my feverish malaise burst into a fluid drenched hallucinatory nightmare for 48 hours. I can honestly say that I was out of sorts.
All this is bad enough, but to then have one of my editors suddenly reappear, kicking in the door of my office, a demented smirk on his face, filthy, and reeking of Strawberry Ripple and shame; staying just long enough to scream “HEY BOY, TAKE A LOOK AT MY WORD MAKING!” before running off into the night, cackling; off to gallivant wherever it is he gallivants, well, you see how I might be a little confused.
That said, this Cthursday-flavored offering comes from Joseph Nanni — whose work has previously been featured on Ectomo — and Bad Advice for Good Times. It was important that I post this. They have to talk to you. About polyps.

“We already changed the name of the school from Abraham Lincoln High to Nyalrothotep Academy,” Perry added. “What more does he want?”

I knew it couldn’t be just hemorrhoids…
Where can we partake of the other videos (1-15)? Youtube says they are no longer available.

I, personally, wish to embrace ElderSign and it’s many side effects, including Insanity, Temporal Shifting, Screaming Brain, and Spotting!
MMMMM-mmmm, Minty ElderSign!

brain cancer is the best kind of cancer. that’s what happens when you let them sex up your ear with their unknowably sharp ovipositors. You eventually lose all semblence of humanity, your head gradually swelling and contorting as buried genes and freshly implanted viral memes go to work, transforming you into an eldritch creature with no goals but the will of nyranthlotep*, the crawling chaos that fills up draintraps and corners of empty rooms.

Hmm…I need some of that. After watching it and a few related clips I zapped randomly (or possibly guided by the unplumbed depths of the soul) and ended up watching a full clip of a step-up aerobics championship. I NEED SOME.
