i know i've broken 80 possibly 90 but i don't know if i've cracked 100 hours in a given work week. the longest shift i've ever had was 28 hours straight though. i got fucking robbed that day (and the next).

SyFy monster running around in my kitchen. I just saw it for the second time. It's about 3x the size of the biggest cockroach I've ever seen, and it's grey (not brown). It skitters across the floor so quickly that you'd think it was a mouse, but the sound its legs make on the tile are quite insectoid. I checked everywhere it might have gone. Not only can I not find it... I can't figure out where it went.

If I manage to kill this Star Trek Chrono Trigger monster, I will indefinitely level up.

I'm pretty sure it's some kind of gargantuan albino cockroach... but there have never been other cockroaches here.]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444832&#post<![CDATA[Billy : Grass: Not Just for Mowing]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/465.jpg

im still doing a bad job at both

Hey, you haven't quit yet. I quit school (understandable, considering my bullpucky major in terms of the economic climate) and regret it.

No such thing as a good job or a bad job in life, IMO. Both are equally meaningless.

Sucks if you're fucking up at law school, though. I hope you're using hyperbole on that one, because you're definitely smarter than those yuppie faggots who are your classmates.]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444831&#post<![CDATA[Secret Asian Man : cash rules everything around me]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/62.jpg im still doing a bad job at both]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444830&#post<![CDATA[Billy : Grass: Not Just for Mowing]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/465.jpg http://www.last.fm/music/The+D ivine+Comedy/_/Dumb+It+Down ]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444829&#post<![CDATA[Billy : Grass: Not Just for Mowing]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/465.jpg SAM, how is school and life these days?]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444828&#post<![CDATA[Billy : Grass: Not Just for Mowing]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/465.jpg Seriously, the DVD box set should be put into a museum.

The mystery unravels in time. Paranoia Agent has a major social commentary aspect, especially in satirizing pop culture and its meaningless ties to peoples' emotions and beings. Anyway, I'd better not say anymore lest I give away the plot.]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444824&#post<![CDATA[the doom : contemno victus, diligo silenti etc]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/118.gif interesting concept for a show]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444823&#post<![CDATA[Billy : Grass: Not Just for Mowing]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/465.jpg Paranoia Agent is a super-intelligent psychological thriller anime. 13 episodes total, IIRC. HIGHLY recommended. Probably my favorite anime of all time. Each episode centers around a different protagonist, all of whom are fucked up people in one way or another, struggling with fear and their inability to accept their circumstances.]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444822&#post<![CDATA[the doom : contemno victus, diligo silenti etc]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/118.gif

That explains everything!

I agree with your stance on crap anime subplots, but the only episodes of Naruto I will watch anymore are the ones that feature Shikamaru and his clever methods. Everything he does is borderline useless in terms of the main storyline, but he makes the show interesting.

I tried to get into Bleach and found myself confused over all these strange white Japanese kids running around Tokyo with some cutesy animal mascot character. It's like, what the hell is the plot? Paranoia Agent mastered it... they kept it short and sweet.]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444818&#post<![CDATA[the doom : contemno victus, diligo silenti etc]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/118.gif do you ever think that people brought up to assist a magician ever actually fuck them over into hurting themselves? i hope so, just to end a little bit of their douchery.]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444817&#post<![CDATA[the doom : contemno victus, diligo silenti etc]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/118.gif well they do love american culture for some reason. maybe its the bombs we dropped on them. maybe its how we all hate eachother. im not sure.]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444816&#post<![CDATA[the doom : contemno victus, diligo silenti etc]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/118.gif two things i hate that seem to be a continuous trend in anime.. episodes that have really nothing to do with anything (and are generally just basically comedies regardless of what the series content is) and sections of a story that can take like 3-4 episodes and resolve nothing (like the whole time you see like 60 seconds of a fight that is somehow drawn to 60 minutes of video) before they bother to resolve it real fast.. ]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444815&#post<![CDATA[the doom : contemno victus, diligo silenti etc]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/118.gif it blows my mind to think of some of the awesome shit i've seen and how old some of it is... i'm a pretty nerdy guy and was pretty into anime when i was a youngin but i don't even think i heard of DB or DBZ or DBGT till like maybe 94 or so.. maybe it was a bit after that. its like, fuck man, 10 years old? this shit is amazing!]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/slowchat.php?quote=444814&#post<![CDATA[Billy : Grass: Not Just for Mowing]]>http://www.thinkattack.com/userIcons/private/465.jpg I think it's an ethnic thing. I think it's that they want to be white, for whatever strange reason.

Yamcha from DragonBall looks pretty authentically Japanese, but he happens to be a baseball player.

Rinoa from FFVIII looked partially Asian, so that's sort of a step forward.

Or maybe Japan should stop drawing all their characters to look like white people. You know, introduce actual Asian people to the FF universe.
