The Spectacular Professor

[font="Comic Sans MS"]Correct on all counts. Proceed.[/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"]Everyone pay attention when someone gets the correct answer to this next one. If you've never seen it before, go do so right away. [center][img]http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/3070/learning.jpg[/img][/center][/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"][b]Lovely Complex[/b] is rather notorious for absurd face faults like that one, So that'll be my guess.[/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"][b]Who's Nifty?:[/b] Sangome! [b]Explain yourself!:[/b] Sangome is a super crazy nifty gal. She's just all-around fun to hang out with and she has a knowledge of internet memes that might even surpass my own. She's a reliable mod and she can provide great moral support when it counts. Also, I'm hoping putting this up here will help convince her that she's actually way more awesome than she thinks she is. [b]Who's Nifty?:[/b] Shinmaru! [b]Explain yourself!:[/b] Shin is totally cool, man. He's the guy who organizes the weekly movie viewings, which aside from reintroducing me to some classic comedies are full of some great color comedy from the other participants. He's full of great one-liners and he's a reliable source of new anime and movies that don't suck, so in short, Shin is win. [b]What's Nifty?:[/b] [b]Heartcatch Pretty Cure[/b] [b]Explain yourself!:[/b] Over the past six months or so, Desbreko has gradually managed to drag a select few individuals straight into the depths of the magical girl fandom through this show. I was among these unfortunate individuals, but I totally don't regret it. HCP is a lot like its main characters, it's sweet and girly and cheesy on the outside, but look a little closer and you have fight scenes that rival the best of any shonen action series, crazy monsters, fun characters and a surprising amount of depth for a monster of the week format series. Over the course of the show, the gradually increasing number of new viewers got together to watch, discuss, and generally gush about how cool the last episode was and how much they were looking forward to the next one. It's fun, it's crazy, and one of the villains stepped right out of [b]Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann[/b]. In short, and I quote TV Tropes, "This show is too awesome to be for little girls." And that awesomeness brought us all together. Or something. [b]Who's Nifty?:[/b] Ducky [b]Explain yourself!:[/b] Honestly, expanding on the phrase "Ducky is Awesome" is just not possible. I have dubbed her the Matriarch of Awesomeness and it seems to be a generally accepted title. She's like the cool big sister of the entire population of the website. That is really all I can say. [b]Who's Nifty?:[/b] You! [b]Explain yourself!:[/b] No. You go to the bathroom right now. Now look in that mirror. You know what that is? That's you. And you are constructed of 100% concentrated win. You've spent a lot of time becoming you are, and that in itself is a pretty great accomplishment. After all, you're the only person who has done it! So congratulate yourself, sir or madam. You're unique, and that's the niftiest kind of nifty.[/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"]Indeed it is. You're up, CaNz.[/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"]Don't think I can. Have a Japanese kid in a leather baseball cap instead. [center][img]http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/1346/clinkv.jpg[/img][/center][/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"][b]Futari Wa Pretty Cure[/b], starring Anime David Bowie.[/font]

[center][img]http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/6352/weekly272921.jpg[/img][/center] [font="Comic Sans MS"]Dunno how well-known this one is, but if you need a hint the woman in the shot is not a natural brunette. [b]EDIT:[/b] Huh, 48 hours and no guesses? Alright, I guess I'll just spoil it then. The shot is from [b]Birdy the Mighty: Decode[/b]. Whoever posts the next one gets the turn.[/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"]That would be [b]Library War[/b], or [b]Toshokan Sensou[/b], which I totally need to rewatch one of these days.[/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"]Welcome to the 'boards, Midget Ninja. I went ahead and merged your posts for you. Please note that while you are allowed to double post in the Anthology, it's mainly a measure to keep individual pages from getting too long-winded. In your case, your poems were small enough to fit into one or two posts reasonably without too much formatting. If you want to add more to a previous post that hasn't been replied to yet, go ahead and use the "Edit Post" button located at the bottom right of the post box. Anyway, thanks for contributing to the Anthology and feel free to submit more of your work here in the future! -Ace[/font]

[quote name='grapedog' timestamp='1296099205' post='704414'] Today's gold standard will be tomorrows pile of crap. [/quote] [font="Comic Sans MS"]Easy for you to say. You, sir, are a modern-day Da Vinci.[/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"]Do you do tutorials? I've been working on expressions and hands, but I can't quite get them right and you look like the kind of person who really has their technique down.[/font]

[quote name='Horendithas' timestamp='1296004368' post='704351'] [color="#4B0082"][font="Arial"]It's three months now... can I stop being so ******* tired all the time now?[/font][/color] [/quote] [font="Comic Sans MS"]Actually I think it works the other way. Don't quote me, I'm not a doctor. But I'm pretty sure you get more tired the farther toward term you get.[/font]

[font="Comic Sans MS"]If you're into [b]Fullmetal Alchemist[/b], be sure to check out both anime series. The first one kind of takes a plot divergence about 13 episodes in and becomes its own little story, while the more recent one (known as [b]Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood[/b] in the States) follows the manga source material more faithfully all the way to the end, plus or minus the odd throwaway gag here and there. Personally, I prefer the latter, but I do know [color="#FFA500"][url="http://www.otakuboards.com/index.php?/user/3954-sangome/"]someone[/url][/color] who swears by the original series, so it's really a matter of personal preference. They're both definitely worth checking out, though.[/font]

[quote name='Stawks' timestamp='1295905745' post='704237'] Thread, why is there no thread on this forum to post silly pictures of ourselves. Are we all just ashamed of our hideous nerdishness, or is there some bizarre rule against it. [/quote] [font="Comic Sans MS"]There was one several months ago, I guess it died. Feel free to make your own, though. Many of us are absolute camwhores, it'll pick up in no time.[/font]

[quote name='Magus' timestamp='1295772301' post='704146'] I'm not really seeing anything different. All I'm seeing is either recommendations or stuff I subscribed to. Or is it the layout (which I hardly pay any attention to)? [/quote] [font="Comic Sans MS"]The layout. It used to be a neat little box showing the eight past video uploads from subscriptions, followed by friend and subscription favorites, followed by eight recommendations. Now they're grouped by uploader, slathered all over the place and take up three screens of scrolldown. And the comment and PM notifications are gone, too. It's like they went out of their way to make it less user-friendly.[/font]
