Sangome

[SIZE="1"]I don't know about you all, but I'm a long-time gamer myself. I adore my Nintendo DS, find it one of the best handhelds ever, and encourage everyone to get it. [U][URL="http://videogames.yahoo.com/events/plugged-in/florida-teen-finds-rocks-in-nintendo-ds-box/1308945"]A teenage boy in Florida wanted one too,[/URL][/U] and his mother was happy to get him one for his birthday. Imagine his delight as he opened the box to his brand new Nintendo DS...and finding a bunch of rocks. Oh, and a rolled up Chinese newspaper. Obviously, the mother went to complain to the local Wal-Mart. No dice. Until... The kicker? Apparently, the [B]same box of rocks was returned previously[/B], to the same Wal-Mart! No word yet on how the box got back on the shelves. I'm feeling a strange combination of wanting to laugh, wanting to headdesk, and wanting to feel pity for the boy. I think I'll go with all three for right now.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Why *sneeze* can't I *sneeze* ever sneeze *sneeze* JUST ONCE?! Seriously, whenever I sneeze, it can't be just once. No, it has to be 498272389427983474289237 times in a row. Guh.[/SIZE]

[quote name='chibi-master']You hurt my head. A lot. [/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Ace has that effect on people. On a completely unrelated note, I could really use a hug right now.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Botar15'][COLOR="DarkGreen"]When they stoped showing Ghost In The Shell Stand Alone Complex: 2nd Gig. That pissed me off so bad.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Uh, what? You mean on Adult Swim? I saw that in its entirety, all on AS. Unless you mean a re-run. Which, I can't help you there.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]I shall echo Missy's statement with [spoiler]Shirley[/spoiler] from Code Geass. I mean, [spoiler]she's arguably the most realistic character in the series, and just got caught up in a bad loop when she fell in love with Lelouch, who she stayed in love with even when she figured out who he really was. And then, to top it all off, she has her death ruled officially as a suicide, and despite us knowing otherwise, throws the characters [especially her mother, whom I also feel sorry for, losing both her husband AND her only child within a year] that had no idea for a loop. It also cemented Rolo in my book of hatred for the rest of eternity.[/spoiler][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]lol, Chobits is actually technically shounen in the sense that Chii has boobies...although that simmers down as the series goes on, when it goes from robot girlfriend to questioning morality with machines. Anyway, the same could be said for girls reading shounen -- does that make them lesbian? I should hope not. But yeah, like Missy said before me, there's nothing wrong with it. A lot of males like shoujo and the like for some reason...must be the pretty girls. So yeah. I wouldn't worry.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]I'm sure most of us here have experienced the parental punishment known as "grounding" at one point in our lives. Some of us slammed doors, screamed and cried, tried to negotiate out of it, or merely quietly went off without another word. But apparently, for a 12-year-old-girl in Quebec, none of those are enough. So what does she do? Why, she sues her father for grounding her. [url]http://www.parentdish.com/2009/04/08/daughter-wins-lawsuit-against-father-over-punishment/[/url] And the best part? [B]She won.[/B] Then the father appealed. She won [I]again[/I]. A second appeal is currently being considered. The father obviously has no power over his child...while the child needs to be scared into submission and told to shut up every once in awhile. Oh wait -- she might sue me, too, for intimidation. Or something. I leave the rest to you guys.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]You mean muted. If you watched it mute you wouldn't be able to fangirl, at least not audibly. Because you'd be mute. (^_^)[/font][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]It would work either way. I can't squeal considering I'm in a library and all. Oh, wait, I mean...yes, sir. :box:[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]BAH. I have an hour and a half of dead time between classes. Funi just put up the first episode of FMA2, and I wanna watch it. It figures this would be the day I forgot my headphones. And I'm not about to watch the first episode of the show mute. >_> [/nerdspeak][/SIZE]

[quote name='ChibiHorsewoman'][color=#9933ff][font=monotype corsiva][size=4] Well I don't remember the pizza much from when I was younger. But I remember it from a few months ago when I took my daughter there. She wanted to go- I'd rather have eatten cardboard with some cheese on it. That would've been more appetizing- but at least she had fun.[/color][/font][/size][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Well it has been a long time since I actually ate it, as well...I guess it could very well suck now. [maybe I could go for my birthday...even if I'll almost be 20 >_>] [quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]Among other things. [I]*smirk*[/I][/FONT][/QUOTE] You keep telling yourself that. :animesmil[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]At first I was wondering how he had got caught, but upon reading the article, he apparently sent the pictures to her family, too. Smooth move, bucko. As for my thoughts...if we're going to punish the guy for distributing them, we need to punish the girl as well...that is, assuming she consented to having the picture taken. If she did, then she needs some sort of reprimanding as well. No, I don't think he should have been made to register as a sex offender. Girls post whorish pictures of themselves on their Myspaces and the like. Teen girls are also sexualized in the media all the time [Miley Cyrus's Vanity Fair photo shoot, anyone?]. There might be some backlash, yes, but I never hear of authoritative action taken on stuff like that. Eh. My brain hurts. Maybe I can better arrange my thoughts later. @_@[/SIZE]

[quote name='ChibiHorsewoman'][color=#9933ff][font=monotype corsiva][size=4]On the contrary Pizza is very easy to screw up. I mean have you ever been to [B]Chuck E Cheese[/B]? Worst bloody pizza ever! And they actually promote themselves as a place with good pizza! I couldn't even get my dad's dog to eat it. [/color][/font][/size][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]...I must be the only person in the world that [I]liked[/I] their pizza. My taste buds must have been warped as a kid. :animedepr[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Here, it's just ADD weather. One day will be beautiful and sunny, the next it'll be cloudy and gloomy. Sunday we were under a tornado watch, out of friggin nowhere. AND I heard it's supposed to snow sometime this week, too. wtf.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]...and absolutely none of this could be solved via a PM. Nope, we gotta broadcast it here so we can have our voices HEARD!!!1 *sigh*[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]I love internet drama. I also love the character limit. :p[/SIZE]

[quote name='Gavin'][SIZE="1"]Wait what ? *Goes to look* Oh God damn it...Well there's seven years of dignity gone straight out the window...[/SIZE][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Nice save, though. :p ...I love freaking out over a history test and it winds up being relatively easy. x_X Oh well. 'least it's over with.[/SIZE]

[quote name='ChibiHorsewoman'][color=#9933ff][font=monotype corsiva][size=4]I'll go for you Sangome. I love history. Which version is it? World? US? Canadian? European? I could totally go for a history class right now.[/color][/font][/size][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]US history. I'm good at stuff from the 60's onward [and some stuff before that], but the stuff we're going over now [the 17/1800s] I just cannot remember to save my life.[/SIZE] [quote name='Roxie Faye'][color=#9933cc]That said, the way they teach history in some schools and countries is ridiculous. I know people from Vietnam who told me history is taught this way: You have to know names and memorize dates of when everything happened. They ask you how many soldiers from each side were at a battle, how many died, how many casualties were there, why the one side lost/won and why it's important, and then, finally, squeezed in at the bottom, what the political implications were.[/color][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Luckily for me, I've not had that problem. o_O My state's good for one thing, I guess. And I did go to the class. And we actually got out early. So not much was lost. :catgirl:[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]I don't want to go to history. I don't want to go to history. I don't want to go to history. I don't want to go to history. I reeeeeaaaally don't want to go to history. It's boring, I can't ever remember anything, and I'm fairly certain my instructor hates me. I kinda wanna skip class, but I'd feel bad if I did...ugh, I don't want to go. And it starts in five minutes and adfhjgadhjgfjsdfhgsdfj save me[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]I wanna go back to bed. Can I go back to bed now? Seriously, I've not been getting enough sleep lately. I really, really need to remedy that... And...yeah. I got nothin'.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Personally, I just look at it like this...no matter what dumb crap I've done in my life, I would never stoop to incest. So, in a sense, these stories could very well make us feel better about ourselves. Or we can just go "Ewww" and no one will remember it in a week. Either or.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]I'd like to see a fight between Sasuke and Edward. It'd be made of such utter fail, it'd actually be made of win![/SIZE]

[quote name='chibi-master']4.) You may not wish for anyone to fall in love with you or anyone else.[/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]OH SCREW THIS [strike]Even if they're fake??? :([/strike][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Sooo, you're saying the only reason I'm nifty is because I'm a spaz...? ... I can live with that.

[SIZE="1"]One word [or two, depending on how you roll]: Sweetarts. Oh my GAWSH I love the things. They're so addicting! I can eat them all the time. But if I eat too many my teeth hurt for an entire weekend. It sucks. ._. As for others, Resees and Kit-Kats. Nummy. _> *ducks from perverted jokes*[/SIZE]
