Yeah. I’m not sure where this idea came to me. It’s a bit less weird than my last idea (which was completely apeshit crazy) but still maintains oddness. It’d be comedy, of course, as I am incapable of writing not comedy. Plus, when was the last time you saw a drama series in flash? It doesn’t happen.
The concept of my flash series idea is this: It’s at a school, and weird things happen. The humor would be mainly character-based, seeing as the concept is weak as hell. Forunately, I’ve thought up some interesting characters, thus making it not suck.
Steve: Steve is the main character. He’s smart, but bitter, cynical, and sarcastic.
Janis: Steve’s best friend. He’s not as smart as Steve, but he’s nice and has a good sense of humor. His name is pronounced “Yanis”, and if anybody calls him Janice, he will fly into an uncontrollable rage and mutilate them horribly. This horrible mutilation is, for some reason, always temporary, and the mutilated characters come back next episode.
Greg the Perve: The third friend in the group of friends. He doesn’t say much, and when he does, it’s usually sexual innuendo. He can see a double entendre in everything. Yes, everything.
Sarah: A girl who is not based on anyone I know in any way at all. She’s liked by basically every guy in the school, and is constantly pestered by the three friends. She’s friends with Steve and kind of likes Janis, but she is (understandably) vaguely frightened by Greg.
Mr. Bich: A teacher, and one of the asshole ones. Although his name is pronounced “Bic”, he is called “Mr. Bitch” by his students behind his back. It is revealed later in the series that his first name is “Niger”, pronounced “Ni-hair”.
Tom: A bully, with the intellect of wood. Constantly taunts the three friends, and is also constantly counter-taunted by them. Often is mutilated by Janis.
The Idiots: Tom’s followers, with intellects of wood with heavy termite damage. Usually just chuckle while Tom insults people.
Das Schabereich: Roughly translated, this means “The Cockroach-Empire”. Literally translated, it means “The Scrapers-Calibrate”. Crazy germans. Das Schabereich are a group of nazi cockroaches bent on world domination… but they figure the school is a good place to start. They speak in badly mutilated german-english, and the plot usually hingedon them attempting to take over the school.
Oberleutnant Zelig: The leader of Das Schabereich. Constantly hatches bizzare plans, most of which don’t work, and don’t even have a chance of working.
The Cat: A stray cat who wandered into the school at some point and decided to stay there. Spends most of its time attempting to eat Oberleutnant Zelig.
That’s it so far. Without Das Schabereich, it’d be pretty boring. But Nazi cockroaches are always fun. Input would be appreciated.

Cockroaches are hilarious.

Sounds suspiciously like our middle-to-high school experience, but with bullies. Although I can’t figure out quite which of us is which of them.
Oberlieutenant Zelig sounds amazingly awesome already. He deserves a spin-off tv show.

Well, Steve and Greg are both kinda based on me. Janis isn’t.

Haha, this amuses me. So Greg and Steve are both you, and Janis is perhaps me and Lukas combined, and between the three of us (oddly distributed between three characters, although I guess I could kind of be Steve sometimes), with Sarah definitely not representing Sarah. This is of course now outdated, with Lukas who knows where and you having moved on to the glorious and terrible world of notsingledom.

Uh, yeah. I’m certainly not going to try to read any of the world thing you’ve created that takes up like 3/4 of your blog.
