What is Hook 'Em Up?

Our @BuddyUP community is growing and so is the quality content inside the POST POOL channels. Often, that content can be easily missed in the vast ocean of Steemit.

It’s our mission at BuddyUP to grow together, support each other and highlight the fantastic content that is created by our members. As part of that mission, we showcase talented content creators within the BuddyUP community, who also display a positive attitude and a community mindset, through our weekly curation post, Hook ‘Em Up!


THIS WEEK’S CATCH

@lunaticpandora

I don't know about y'all but I love seeing our buddies grow and thrive on Steemit. I believe we need to give a huge congratulations to our buddy @lunaticpandora for reaching the elusive 'minnow status'. We couldn't be more proud of him!

In @lunaticpandora's latest post, he shares with us a funny take of what he stumbles upon when procrastination takes priority. He shows us a website by our lord and savior Google where your compliance will be rewarded, especially if you like to doodle in an effort to help train Skynet to take over the human race.

They greet you with that message and then all thats left is to just hit the play button, because thats what our overlord googledoodle wants us to do...



Upon entering the site and pressing play, @lunaticpandora tells us that you will be presented with six topics of which you have twenty seconds for each to doodle your heart out. The 'murderous AI' will then try to decipher your doodles as a type of target practice that is teaching the machines to differentiate between the different species. Despite the risks of teaching the machine to target humans @lunaticpandora gives it a go and does an awesome job! His compliance will be rewarded.

It's a pretty fun game and the responses she gives you are hillarious, suddenly you might be drawing a monkey and she will guess its the great wall of China...

Get your stylus warmed up and head on over to @lunaticpandora's attempt to help Skynet kill us all and help the 'murderous AI' prepare for the purge. While your there, Congratulate him on his new, hard earned Minnow Status.



@lymepoet

Our fantastic poet and artist @lymepoet is back from a well deserved vacation. We have missed seeing her around the server lately and we are excited to see what she's been up to.

@lymepoet shares with us some excellent news and we are very happy for her. She's only given her paintings to family, friends and some acquaintances.
While on vacation, she was approached to paint a commissioned piece which for her was the ultimate compliment. The client was even under the impression that she was a celebrity.

Since my friends have praised my skills, when I met the client, I realized he was under the impression I was a sort of celebrity of sorts.



After a brief consultation with her client to find out what he envisioned, @lymepoet created the pieces above and they are beautiful! The client expressed how he wanted something that looked 'fluid' and showed her some sample colors and the deal was done. She painted five pieces and her client was thrilled and is now her newest fan, he's interested in doing business in the future. What a nice unexpected surprise to get when your on vacation.

I got myself a new fan, as he mentioned that he will be interested in having more of my artworks next year. Let's hope he won't change his mind!

Get over to @lympoet's working vacation post and check out the other pieces she painted for her client, they are vibrant and stunning pieces of art. You might like what you see and may want to commission her yourself.



@oscurity

One of our newer members @oscurity loves to dive into the darker side of art. Always giving us some awesomely disturbing images to examine. He has been busy lately showing us many examples of the creepy things that live in his imagination.

In one of @oscurity's recent posts not only does he share with us his art but he gives us a shorty story to read about the demon inside. Labelled by him as bizarre art, 'A Demon Inside Me' is the very thing nightmares are made of; the art and the story.

You took the fall and leaped into her body .. STOP THE DEMON YOU DESTROY MY LIFE REMEMBER THAT I HAVE A WIFE AND DAUGHTER !.



Some people believe that demons can take over one's self and control your actions. @oscurity gives a look into his character's fight with the evil that tries to take hold. His story is sure to make you look behind if you're walking down a dark hallway alone and is definitely not for the faint of heart.

I can not find words that describe my agony, I know I did wrong to kill the girl, the rain of the night showed PETRICOR with the scent of blood, I finish my forgiveness ...

Don't be a scaredy cat, take a look at @oscurity's [Demon Inside Me] piece of art and read the devilish story that goes along with it. Remember to bring your flashlight and make sure to show some love.

Keep up the good work @oscurity! We are very happy to have you in our family!

Aww, thank you @monchhichi 23 for including me in here and for your kind words! I guess Gina Bot forgot to send me a notification for this post. Luckily I saw it while I was trying to see what was already posted for the upcoming Drop in the ocean show.
