I don't care about fashion, I just wear what I like and whats most comfortable for me. I hate wearing tight fitting clothes. What I don't get is when guys wear oversized pants that tend to show off there boxers, why is that popular it looks stupid to me.

And this is why I'm glad I never went to a Catholic school, they seem to strict. It was bad enough for me in middle school where the dress code was collared shirts that were tucked into your pants or skirt and if your pants had belt loops you had to wear a belt. I hated that school.

I can't decide, either a katana or gun, I really like both weapons. If gun I would have two, a SIG Saur P239 Tu-one and a classic Colt Peacemaker.

[QUOTE=DeathKnight][color=crimson]Nature attempts to wax and wane in a balanced fashion. Things are still killed and eaten. Death is still rampant. Creatures still bitterly fight one another to survive. It is not a utopia in comparison to man's workings by any means. I wasn't aware that our capability to be wildly diverse in ideas made us lesser creatures.[/color][/QUOTE] It is true that in Nature creatures are killed, but it is not without purpose. Let us compare Man to a pack of Wolves. During the Westward Expansion in the USA during the 1800s the Bison almost became extinct. For sport men during train rides would shoot randomly at the herds of Bison slaughtering hundreds only to leave the carcasses behind to rot. A pack of wolves on the otherhand will only take down one Bison and leave barely any remains behind (assuming wolves eat Bison of course). Unlike "wild animals" who kill for survival only, Man is known to kill because they can. The fact that Humans are as DeathKnight put it "wildly diverse in ideas" only makes it more difficult for Man to accept others and live peacefully. In my own opinion of course.

All I know is I don't like Bush and I am against the so called "war". My old Economics teacher used to always joke how because of all the suicide bombings that they will end up killing themselves off and then we won't have to worry about the terrorists and people like that. The way I see it there will never be such a thing as a perfect world because people don't know how to live peacefully together. As Mark Twain had wrote in [I]Letter From the Earth[/I] man is truly the "lower animal." Man is the only animal that deals with war, "the only animal who enslaves." "Man is the only Patriot. He sets himself apart in his own country, under his own flag, and sneers at the other nations". Man is also the "Religious Animal", the only animal with the "True Religion - several of them." This is my favorite excerpt.... "In truth, man is incurably foolish. Simple things which the other animals easily learn, he is incapable of learning. Among my experiments was this. In an hour I taught a cat and a dog to be friends. I put them in a cage. In another hour I taught them to be friends with a rabbit. In the course of two days I was able to add a fox, a goose, a squirrel and some doves. Finally a monkey. They lived together in peace; even affectionately. Next, in another cage I confined an Irish Catholic from Tipperary, and as soon as he seemed tame I added a Scotch Presbyterian from Aberdeen. Next a Turk from Constantinople; a Greek Christian from Crete; an Armenian; a Methodist from the wilds of Arkansas; a Buddhist from China; a Brahman from Benares. Finally, a Salvation Army Colonel from Wapping. Then I stayed away two whole days. When I came back to note results, the cage of Higher Animals was alright, but in the other, there was but a chaos of gory odds and ends of turbans and fezzes and plaids and bones and flesh -- not a specimen left alive. These Reasoning Animals had disagreed on a theological detail and carried the matter to a Higher Court."

There's a manga????? This franchise has been around for so long, I remember when the gameboy games first came out and it was black and white. I can still name all the first 251 pokemon but after that I only know a few. For me the whole Team Rocket thing has become really old and is kinda annoying, the only reason I know about the newer shows is because my 9 year-old brother watches it.

In a way I am like your friend, I'm 18 and don't really have very good social skills. My parents just recently divorced and I live with my mom and little brother and it has become a real pain sometimes. I don't have a job but I am looking and my mom is trying to push me out there into the world but because I lack social skills its hard for me. I grew up sheltered and recently developed a mental condition called Agoraphobia which is basically an intense fear of being trapped in particular places and situations or of not being able to find help if I experience anxiety or a panic attack. This fear is usually centered around being alone in an open area or being in a large crowd and therefore those with this phobia try to avoid such situations altogether because such situations cause notable anxiety or panic. This has affected my life greatly because most of the time my attacks accured while I was driving or when I was in a large store. I do take medication now for it but sure it prevents an attack but it can't block my fear. Your friend may be ruled by her parents but I am ruled by fear, with a little help from you I think she will be just fine.

When I heard this song I felt it described me so well (except the love part since I'm not in love with anyone) that it made me cry "Wild Horses" by Natasha Bedingfield Ooooh I feel these four walls closing in Face up against the glass I'm looking out, hmmm Is this my life I'm wondering It happened so fast How do I turn this thing around Is this the bed I chose to make It's greener pastures I'm thinking about Hmm, wide open spaces far away All I want is the wind in my hair To face the fear but not feel scared Ooh, wild horses I wanna be like you Throwing caution to the wind, I'll run free too Wish I could recklessly love like I'm longing to I wanna run with the wild horses Run with the wild horses, oh Yeah, oh oh, ye-yeah I see the girl I wanna be Riding bare-back, care-free Along the shore If only that someone was me Jumping head-first, head-long Without a thought To act and damn the consequence How I wish it could be that easy But fear surrounds me like a fence I wanna break free All I want is the wind in my hair To face the fear, but not feel scared Oooh, wild horses I wanna be like you Throwing caution to the wind, I'll run free too Wish I could recklessly love like I'm longing to I wanna run with the wild horses Run with the wild horses, oh I wanna run too Oooh oh oh oh Recklessly emboundening myself before you I wanna open up my heart Tell him how I feel, ooh ooh Oooh, wild horses I wanna be like you Throwing caution to the wind, I'll run free too Wish I could recklessly love like I'm longing to I wanna run with the wild horses Run with the wild horses Run with the wild horses Ooh ooooh ooh ooh ye-yeah yeah oohh I wanna run with the wild horses, ooooh

I joined basically to meet new people and also to discuss anime and to view other peoples opinions and to give my own when I have one. I've been a member of Otaku for a few years but only recently did I join OB. I find talking to people online is easier for me than on the telephone or in person. I'm not a very social person, its hard for me to just go up to someone I don't know and just start talking but online its easy for me for some reason.

I watch both though I sometimes prefer the sub. The only dubbs I don't like are the ones made more suitable for kids like Naruto, One Piece, and Yu-Gi-Oh otherwise I like the dubbs like with Fullmetal Alchemist and others. And I also watch the subb when the show hasn't been dubbed like most of Detective Conan and D. Gray-man.

No, the "lost season" has never been dubbed but you can find it subbed online. I've been watching it on youtube.

After reading all these responses I now feel I have to check out the manga, it sounds really interesting. I don't like the 4Kids version and have been trying to find the show subbed with no luck. I do however like the original Yu-Gi-Oh that is known as Season Zero or the lost season. It's a bit more violent and I guess darker but thats what I like about it.

I miss this show so much it was one of my favorites. I still remember when I saw the very first airing of it on saturday night Adult Swim on Cartoon Network. When it started showing on Toonami I watched it with my little brother, who was like I think 5 or 6 at the time (some older sister I am letting my little brother watch such violent shows :animesmil ) and he liked the show too, we never missed an episode. And then they stopped showing it and I was so upset. Then like a year ago I wake up a little after 5:30 one Saturday morning and as I'm walking past my brothers room I notice his television was left on and playing on it was an episode of YYH that I never saw before and I was like OMG. But after that I could never wake up in time to see it :animecry: I never did get to watch the whole thing :animecry: I still love this show, I really like Hiei and Kurama the most :catgirl: though all the characters from this show are great!! :catgirl:

I have no idea who this guy is but ya I have no doubt he is rich. I think its all an act really, I don't think they perform actual miracles or anything like that.

I've never really cried but I came close during Fullmetal Alchemist at Maes Hughes funeral and the end of Samurai X: Reflection. And I felt really sad at the end of Wolf's Rain and I still can't get over the Cowboy Bebop ending.
