[COLOR=DarkRed]Parts of the [I]Black Swan[/I] by Thom Yorke is stuck in my head. Really just the chorus, "This is ****** up, ****** up. It's weird to me that this is the only part of the song that gets to me. It is catchy, but I had to look up the lyrics to pay any attention to the rest of the song. [I]Mad World[/I] by Gary Jules is another one constantly coming up randomly in my head. This song has been used to death and is becoming too cliche. Never been my thing, so I'm kind of ashamed to say this song is stuck in my head. Catchy though. [/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Mr. Maul][size=1][color=DimGray]What the hell are you guys talking about? [/color][/size][/QUOTE] [COLOR=DarkRed]They just changed the skins didn't they. DB sees it, so I can't be just seeing things again. :animestun [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Yeah I say the transition a few minutes ago. I love the look, but I just think it needs less gray. Other than that, who should I be giving the props to?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]I think this thread needs more ninjas. [URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2kJZOfq7zk]Urban Ninja[/URL] is just one of those crazy guy doing crazy things type of video that Youtube is just known for. [URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9nVENReGBY]Urban Ninja II[/URL] is a beautiful tale of love and revenge. I had a third video I wanted to show, but is somehow "violated terms of use" with Youtube and was pulled. I think it had t to with something like Youtube trying to remove copyrighted anime from its site, even though the video I wanted to show was a backyard parody. wtf. :animeangr [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Is it too late to turn this thread into a poll? Anyways, I say forget the blonds and brunettes. Black hair and redheads are the cool ones. What about dreads and braids? Blonds? No. Brunettes? Maybe, but black is the sure thing. Not much I can say about redheads though, but I hear the red pubis is more valuable than diamonds.[/color]

[COLOR=DarkRed]1.S&M is kind of a big one for me. I generally like a girl that can kick my *****. My best chick friend actually "accidentally" pricked me with a dagger twice. 2.There was this one time I keep going back to in my head about when a few of my friends and I was playing real-life contact Final Fantasy. It was a sad type of funny. It got out of hand though when one of my friends put confusion on my teammate and he punched me in the balls. 3.I'm only one out of four friends of my entire circle of friends who listens to multiple genres of music. Who decided I should just listen to rap anyway? [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Well there are a few things you can do, but I'm not sure they count as mind games. The top things that trow people of their game is taunting them with the character or taunting them in real life. Another thing can be your character choice and style. Picking a character that is widely accepted as weak, such as Xianghua, and exploit their strengths. I guess that wouldn't work a lot of times, since better players know she has good parries and quick hits. You can pick a character that is distracting, has an unusual play style to the game, has high sexual tension, or high on the weird factor. Voldo from SC has all of those traits. The best thing I think you can do is call the other player on their play style and trash talk about that but still keep your cool. If none of those count as mind games, I don't know what does.

[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkOrange] Anywho, my hadoken sunk the titanic. I don't know what dumbass got it confused with an iceburg, but I don't mind. Once I'd seen the crapfest that was the Hollywood production, I wanted to distance myself from association as much as possible[/COLOR].[/QUOTE] [COLOR=DarkRed]I don't know what you are talking about.

[COLOR=DarkRed]Your power is pretty impressive. Mine is not that good. Can you give me some advice what I'm doing wrong? [URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlZIe6CMT_k]My progress[/URL] [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]My current is the phoenix, which was an easy Google find. The Tia Dalma was my previous. I had it for a couple of hours until I said no.

Spent only a half hour figuring out how to print my screen, set them up an account on imageshack, upload them, and post the thumbnails all by myself. I feel like I've accomplished something, so please nobody take that from me. [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Speaking of [I]Transformers[/I], I've loved [I]Beast Wars[/I] back when I was younger. Yeah I know it's not anime, but I felt it had to be mentioned. Barely beating out[I] FLCL[/I], my favorite anime is [I]Cowboy Bebop[/I]. I love the story and action, and who doesn't like Spike? Both being almost a decade old, I think they count as old-school. Hey, I'm young. I don't know what old-school is. [I]Darkstalkers[/I] and [I]Samurai Pizza Cats [/I]I remember watching also when I was younger, but I can't remember a thing about them. nada :animeswea . [/COLOR]

[quote name='BKstyles][FONT=Tahoma']It's just bewildering to me how some people are still actually convinced there's a possibility of a hentai forum being put up. The purpose of this thread is long since finished. [/FONT][/quote] [COLOR=DarkRed]Although I agree that these boards might never have a hentai forum for understanding reasons, but I believe the thread has two parts. What about the size restrictions on the banners and avatars? I'm sorry I lost interest in reading this thread after I've read all of Allamorph's 25 paragraph post a while back. I didn't have the mental strength to read the rest of this conversation, but I'm pretty sure the hentai part of the discussion stole the show. Again, I'm not asking for drastic changes, but just slight adjustment to the restrictions. Not bad restrictions, but at times I wished I had a tiny bit of space. [/COLOR]

[quote name='Copycatalyst']Love is not a feeling.[/quote] [COLOR=DarkRed] Love's a battlefield. Well for the op's interest, well it may seem like a crush to me on the outside. You can't really force love, it just happens between two people, usually over time. Two years seems like a pretty sound friendship. That said and her situation, I would guess she is looking for comfort from somebody she can trust. My guess is you are that person she can trust. Sadly in this situation, she may not be looking for someone new right away, until she feels she can trust someone again in a relationship. Well in time, you'll never know what will happen between you two. Sorry for not giving instant girlfriend advise.[/COLOR]

[quote name='Nonentity'], there's no way in hell I believe you're talking about your friend, but if you're really that embarassed, you can go ahead and keep calling yourself that. [/quote] [spoiler] I like to kid, but this one just kind of lasted a bit. :D . The DOA girls are pretty amazing though. Hitomi in her backless shirt costume is all i have to say. Plus, "I like a woman that can kick my a**"- Spike Spiegal.[/spoiler]

[quote name='Nonentity'] DOA doujins!! :p[/quote] [COLOR=DarkRed]Yes!!!111. I've forgotten all about them! Well I mean my friend really liked them a lot. He used to go on and on about Cristie and Kasumi. And he absolutlly never shutted up about Hitomi. :animeblus[/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Nonentity]lol, well, it depends on what you think of as addiction, i guess. I know I've chainsawed my fair shair of bodies, but the weapon is one of the least useful in the game and honestly looses it's flash after a while. I'd prefer breaking someone's body to pieces with a shotgun any day, >_< but that's against the point! Anywho, if you're doubting yourself, you need immediate reassurance! I prescribe you to go watch [B]Girls Bravo![/B] right now and remind yourself how to be a man![/QUOTE] Yeah, chainsaw does get kind of phased out with people's skills get better. Frag tagging works better if you need to get up close and personal, but I'm going to get back on the point. Girls Bravo? You're going to have to do better than that man. One of them was like half my age. edit: typo

[quote name='Nonentity']Addiction? I think you mishot the heroine thread by a few feet XD. There's no such thing as a porn addiction unless you have some mental condition, and then it's not one i've ever heard of. But seriously, if you or your friend is afraid of your liking porn, you're just being a wuss...[/quote] [COLOR=DarkRed]First of all, it's my friend not me :animeshy: . Second, I think you can be addicted to anything. I can't go a week without candy without flippin' out. Trust me, after you chainsaw your first person in [I]Gears of War[/I] , you're gonna want to do it again.[/COLOR]. And last, I'm not a wuss, I'm a scoundrel. added: yes some addictions cause withdrawal when you are deprived of whatever it is.

[COLOR=DarkRed]I have a friend that is ummmm addicted to the said "subject matter". He wants help to turn a new leaf and fight the addiction. Any advice? [spoiler] I'm kidding,.....but I am interested in hearing the advice. lol[/spoiler] :animeblus [/COLOR]

[QUOTE=affection][FONT=Georgia]I despise [URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OuRajFzMYI][u]Samurai Champloo's theme song[/URL][/u]. When I used to hear it on Adult Swim, I'd have to turn it off. I don't know what it is about that theme song that I hate so much... [/FONT][/QUOTE] I came to love Champloo's soundtracks. [I]Vagrancy[/I], a remix of [I]Battlecry[/I](the intro theme) I came across, [I]Sneak Chamber[/I], and [I]Izumaki style[/I](I think it's called) are really cool songs I've liked from the show. As for [I]Battlecry[/I], I think it goes well with the tone of the show with the champloo of rap and samurais. I think the creators kind of intended that.

Oh, boy. This seems like something I would regret, but be interested in. I'm in, whatever. Summer is here, I have extra time. [B]1) What is your element of power?[/B] Playfulness and complete randomness. [B]2) Who taught you how to ride a bike?[/B] All my friends on my block were I grew up. [B]3) When do[/B] the cows come home? I intend to find out.

[quote name='DeadSeraphim][size=1][color=indigo][font=arial]What about Naruto and Naruto? It'd be cannon![/font][/color'][/size][/quote] wouldn't that be masturbation or clone on clone?

[quote name='Lunox][color=dimgray][spoiler]It would do wonders for the Art Studio. What anime-fanned artist doesn't enjoy drawing naked 12-year-olds with oddly colored liquids squirting all over the ****ing place?[/spoiler'][/color][/quote] [spoiler]Yeah, but I don't think too many of us want to see that kind of sex with Sasuke and Naruto or even sex with Sasuke and Naruto at all. [/spoiler]

James's points kind of won me over to the "maybe we shouldn't allow hentai" side. Especially here: [QUOTE=James][font=arial][color=olive] So, you know, OB can't be all things to all people. It will never be like that. I can accept the fact that OB may not take up 100% of your Internet browsing time - it may take up a share and maybe another share will be taken up by a Hentai site...but that's the way it should be. .[/font][/color][/QUOTE] Opening up multiple web windows may be the solution here. Heck, Firefox has a pretty sleek tabbing system. I'm still kind of want a loosen restrictions on the avatars and banners. Not drastic, but I don't really like the idea of bothering the people in the art studio for me. So I guess I'm down with Boss with his protest.

[quote name='Charles']It's not pornography--it's cartoon art that is shared freely in Japan.[/quote] That being said, I guess I won't be under aged then. Hey, you know any way I get a job overseeing all the hentai that comes in? [spoiler] I'm kidding[/spoiler]

Plain and simple, Americans are getting bigger thus needing bigger coffins, bigger avatars and bigger banners. But seriously, I would love to see bigger avatars allowed or even varied dimensions than the current 150 by 80. I cried when I found stuff I wanted to use that were 175 by 50 or 145 by 100 and so on. As for the hentai, I say why not. I don't care if this forum already knows my age, I would still support it. lol
