Jem Goes Gold

I don't get it.
I love Jem. Yet, it seems like Jem, as a commercial product stands for many things I stand against. Why, then, does this now ancient cartoon continue to pique my interest and inspire me anew?
Jem is a skinny, spoiled, entitled girl. Her group of friends are the Asian chick, the black chick, the Hispanic chick, and the redhead...seemingly chosen as an opportunity to attract certain female audiences. The whole show was made to sell the dolls.
And still I love it! Damnit. The music is catchy, if not utterly brilliant. The animation is fun and the characters are campy and oddly identifiable. I love that there's still such a huge fanbase for this show...but I almost hope no one brings it back commercially. I tend to like things that no one else likes mostly because no one else does. Might ruin it for me.

Now before this falls out of my train of thought, doing this sex comic for Mea is taking a toll on me.

I'm totally horny.

No, seriously. I can't draw a panel without thinking, "Hm...how long would it take me to look at porn and cum?" Agh! That's supposed to be what I'm trying to change. *stabs self with fork* Maybe I can change the world...forget myself. I hope other people find all this as stimulating. It's not that I want to deter anyone from masturbation, I just want to be able to get something done without distracting myself with masturbation. I can't wait till I can start passing around the site address...I'm going to feel so proud.
And exhausted. Holy Christ, I love orgasms.

On a final note, favorite Jem songs:
Who is He Kissing
Jem Goes Gold
Glitter n' Gold Theme
Jem Girl Theme
Depends on the Mood I'm In
Twilight in Paris
We Can Change It
Time is Runnin' Out
Last Laugh
Truly Outrageous
Back in Shape [oh my god, I don't really like an aerobic song, do I? damn you Jem]
Gettin' Down to Business
Deception

And there are so many more I haven't heard...
back to the sketchbook...orgasm count: 2
