Well, looks as though readinghomestuck (Amy)'s friend started liveblogging. Seems he's been spoiled on a few things, though. douchebag-reads-homestuck.tumblr.com/This will be... interesting. She assures us that he'll mellow out though.

Oh wow. A few days had gone by since 4/13 without no one starting anything, and I was getting worried that this would start dying down a little. Then we get a 2Xcombob.

Are you the same folks that did the liveblogging threads in the MSPA Forums? I have known about you for a long time. I am very excited to be able to stop by. Nice to finally meet you! I don't know about the rest of these people but I certainly am the same folk! (Yes we escaped the Scratch of the MSPA forums and found a pond to squat in over here) I always have this paranoid curiosity to know what was said about me/us when people say "I have heard of you" :/ Oh well, I'm sure it was literally all good. Damn, Amy's friend has been spoiled on a lot of things :/ I'll probably read it more casually than follow it eagerly, at least until he "mellows out".

She assures us that he'll mellow out though. Well, in my opinion livebloggers who freely criticize the comic are considerably more fun to read than those who just gush about it.

Freely criticising is well and good, but this guy's... You can feel the reluctance and resent at being convinced to read it dripping from his words. Whether it's the case or not it comes across as if he's somewhat annoyed with Amy for getting him to read it, let alone blogging it.

Pay no attention to the familiar names above the avatars. So here we are and we sure aren’t starting on a high note. This is butt ugly. This intro is pretentious and doesn’t make any sense. Why the fuck does he not have a name? Have his parents just been yelling HEY YOU at him for 13 fucking years? Maybe they’ve just been calling him Dipshit all this time. That’s what I would call him. Look at those godawful teeth. And he’s just standing there blinking at his room like a moron. Hey Dipshit why is your dresser fucking taller than you? Can you even reach the doorknob with your nonexistent arms? I love him already.

Honestly, I would be quite annoyed too if I was made to read a webcomic I thought was dumb by a fan (and a friend) who wouldn't stop gushing about it. This is a liveblog I'll enjoy, though. I'd rather see someone who HATES homestuck slowly grow to love it than someone who loves it from the beginning and gushes 3/4 all the way.

I've got a bad feel about this Scoob. No but seriously I don't know how to feel about this guy, he seems pretty funny but like it was pointed out before he doesn't seem to be enjoying this at all, and the use of the r word was unexpected in the unpleasant way

I mean, I was pretty sure it was a kind of Caliborn-esque act, and that he just pretended to hate it so much when he actually just enjoyed ranting about something he didn't care about. I've got a bad feel about this Scoob. No but seriously I don't know how to feel about this guy, he seems pretty funny but like it was pointed out before he doesn't seem to be enjoying this at all, and the use of the r word was unexpected in the unpleasant way On the other hand, he could definitely use a content warning.

OK, Douchebag clearly hates the comic. Is he ever gonna continue? Seeing someone who hates the comic a lot, as upsetting as it may be, is still pretty entertaining.

This seems like the sort of guy who's going to declare he's done every couple pages or so and then keep going. And I seriously doubt he has some sort of burning, intense hatred for the comic; dude just started, he probably doesn't care all that much yet and enjoys ranting. I'm gonna wait and see how this goes. He's pretty entertaining, and if Amy's to be believed, the anger is mostly bluster. (dude could maybe use a content warning or something, though)

(dude could maybe use a content warning or something, though) This line is why I fully agree with Melonlord here: This actually got a chuckle out of me. I guess this proves Hussie can be clever but I can’t back down so early in the game. I have more swearing to do. Yeah. Not actually rage, just indifference combined with a fondness for ranting. Content warning? As in someone warning him or him warning others or what? As in someone warning potential readers who might be uncomfortable with the words he uses to insult the characters.

Well, since I tend to prefer bloggers who like what they're reading I have no great desire to start reading Doucebag's blog right away, but the other one ("Fulmehan"? no idea what to call this one) seems pretty great so far! Also, THAT PACE IS AMAZING
(Also, I went ahead and sent them BKEW's SBaHJ origin copypasta, since I figured they'd appreciate it.)

LOHAN? GOHAN? OTHER DBZ CHARACTERS? ...I'll stick with Namestuck for now.

I mean I guess I shouldn't be too critical. I initially got convinced to read Homestuck because a friend and I reached an accord where she'd watch Steins;Gate if I read Homestuck.
She never reciprocated but I wound up with Homestuck as one of my favourite stories so I guess things worked out according to her evil plan.

Also, a warning about Namestuck's blog (I didn't catch this until now): most of their posts are submitted as photosets, which might not be immediately obvious if you're not on mobile. This means that you have to find the right place to click to see the rest of the pictures, some of which are screenshots of the original 4chan posts this liveblog is made from (and thus contain some of the commentary).

Okay so I’m gonna take a stab at this GG since they can apparently see hella into the future will be the Knight, Dave with all the focus on his shades, his hatred of the sun/light and seeing through irony shtick will be the seer, Rose seems like the type to be a witch and I suppose that leaves John as the Heir to his nannas prankster legacy Wow, that's surely unusual prediction here

And what are those patters on his robes/shroud? They weren’t there a minute ago. Oh, don't worry about those it's not like it's the remnants of a ghost pattern because they're John's bedsheets or anything. More and more I’m beginning to believe John is just a fucking midget. All the fake arms I’ve seen cut off at the elbow so that means John is under 2ft tall. Add in his terrible eyesight and terrible teeth and John is a fucking mutant mole person. This is why he didn’t have a name until now. He was kept under lock and key away from society. They placated him with cake and bad movies. But today he shall rise. He will battle against his captors and no longer be “home stuck” but instead a free man. He shall lead the uprising for all his mutant brethren. ALL HAIL JOHN MOTHER FUCKING EGBERT! LET HIS PEOPLE GO! No, Elf has it figured out, he's actually an experiment being groomed to be a slave by Loki! I see Hussie isn’t above shilling his own products. Shut the fuck up. You are not impressing me sir. I don’t know what any of this shit is but I feel like that magnet set was made for me. Said magnet set happens to be a SBaHJ magnet set. It makes me curious what he's going to think about said subcomic.

At least now we know that Nanna always said, “hoo hoo hoo,” and it wasn’t anything to do with being combined with a harlequin or being a Kernelsprite. Yes. That is absolutely 100% the case and you will never be proven wrong on those grounds, ever.

UPDATE 87: Guilty Until Really, Really, Really Proven Innocent Oh this oughta be good. UGGGGH Don't worry, a lot of that time is completely devoid of content... (starts sobbing) Heh. Something tells me you'll get your wish. Incoming asks about Hussie's original plans ahoy, at least once his next post comes out. Actually, would it be possible to send him an ask about that without spoiling Vriska's death? (EDIT: Whoops, looks like Loading already did that, though it was Strife, not Ascend.) In which we reach the end of Act 2 and these kids are still stuck in their homes. When will they be free. By one interpretation, the end of Act 3. By another, the very last moment of the comic. Oh, this is just the beginning of this idea, which is anything but frivolous and childish. Can Town is love. Can Town is life. If only. He typed in "home"... and now he can't do anything to the console and the grate appeared when he attempted to leave... and we don't know exactly why the grate appeared or whether it would have appeared if he had attempted to leave at any time... :0 Seriously, how does he figure out this much of WV's backstory this early?!? I never thought of it that way, but it is especially cute considering WV/PM might be the closest thing Homestuck has to a true "official couple". You're one letter off there. Whew, somebody gave WV some medical, er, white magic attention. Also what the fuck is up with Eridan’s God Tier costume? Are those pantaloons? Clearly the real importance of this page. ;D Actually that's the opposite of what happens, but you will love what it leads to in the short term. And wait until you see his solution to it. I guess I should finally catch up with... what I guess we would call the Generation 6 blogs, although I never really liked separating Gen 5 from Gen 4? Also we don't have anyone likely to have any audio reacts and distressingly few people who haven't been spoiled in some way... Oh god damn it what is this shit? Is this going to turn all meta and John is just a video game character? Actually I think I would prefer that. Let’s meet the real hero of this story Dave Strider as he tries to play a dumb game about a dumb kid and that somehow blows up the world. Yeah I’ve cracked the code. If this turns out to be even slightly close to the truth I will take back everything I said and praise Hussie for his work. Something tells me he's going to have an... interesting interpretation of what Sburb is, if he makes it that far. Honestly, I think in a way being spoiled about so much almost makes the whole ragging on the comic better, although something tells me I might stop reading if and when he comes around on it. Also, fuckingletmehaveaname really reminds me of Dante. It's hilarious he assumes the comic is foreshadowing Jade's aspect being Time and not her class being the Seer. Although... Rose/Dave continues to be my otp Not for long it won't. OH SHIT HE KNOWS THE MEMES So, the posters in John’s room include Little Monsters and Deep Impact. Creatures with horns from another realm that broaden the perception of the main character. And an apocalypse movie. No foreshadowing here at all, move along, you can go about your business. ...Wait, the trolls were foreshadowed from the very beginning of the comic?!?
