Gavin

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]Also in the new rules I would like to institute a policy that all trolls must be licensed and sanctioned by me personally after a thorough, comprehensive test of their abilities. All those who fail the test are to be packed inside of [COLOR="DarkRed"]deadSeraphim[/COLOR]'s locker.[/FONT][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Supported on the condition you never pass anyone and "[I]deadSeraphim's locker[/I]" is a obscure euphamism for the crater of an active volcano on Mars.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]As plotkai goes that mirror trick was about as lame as they come but at least he's learned something from Aizen and admits it was a one-time-only trick. Hopefully this will irritate Hali enough to just slice him in half again after their brief banter, if she is a Vasto Lorde like we expect (assuming Aizen's VLs are actually in the Espada and not being held back somewhere else which might explain his lack of care at the attrition he's suffered in recent battles) then Hitsu with his immature bankai shouldn't have the power to defeat her. As for Barrigan it's really only an advantage against close combat enemies, anyone with long-range capabilities (like Byakuya) wouldn't really have a problem against him so long as he could keep his distance. Again if he's a Vasto Lorde it's not unthinkable to believe he'd have extreme power, given VLs are supposed to be matched only by top-tier captains and we've yet to see the full power of either Ukitake or Shunsui's shikai (let alone their bankai) and Yama-jii's is pretty close to HAX in it's powerlevel. As for Kubo's admission he writes on the fly every week I'm seriously hoping that's just a joke otherwise it explains far too many inconsistencies too easily and means we'll never get them addressed properly.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Indi'][COLOR="Indigo"][FONT="Arial"]Now, now Gavin, don't lie. You're just going to be lazy and do nothing. Though the link is interesting, sort of. =P It is amusing that something like this would happen at Wal-Mart though. [/FONT][/COLOR][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Generally true but I find the opportunity to torture a failed lacky and dehumanise them to the point of no return to be enjoyable enough to prevent my natural laziness setting in, at least for a while then I just watch and eat the condensed souls of customers with Basement Cat.[/SIZE] [quote name='Nomurah!'][SIZE="1"][COLOR="HotPink"]So that's where I left those?

[SIZE="1"]I'm not a big breakfast person any more, mostly because since starting college I tend to wake up just late enough so that I can shower and get to a lecture on time thus enjoying a few minutes extra sleep but not have a chance to eat a breakfast. Doesn't really bother me because I've never really enjoyed the taste of food early in the morning (cereal and toast always taste so bland after you've just worken up) and it saves a bit of cash to just wait until lunch. On the other hand having exams all this week means I've managed to take a Barocca tablet with a pint of water and a chicken sandwich out of the belief it'll somehow help me study better beforehand.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]Why is everything that happens in Utah SOMEHOW MY FAULT???[/FONT][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Oh please I've been blaming you for the [B]world's[/B] ills for a few months now, you are Basement Cat after all. As the leader of a vast and stereotypically evil corporation I'm proud to say I look to you for inspiration on how to make this world a little worse every day. ^_~[/SIZE]

[quote name='Magus']That makes me wonder though... Does it rain in Soul Society? Is there water in Soul Society because I don't recall there being any water?[/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]As far as I remember it started to rain just after Rukia killed Kaien, and although that's the only scene we've seen actual rainfall in the vegetation and small bodies of water shown at other points during the Soul Society arc hint at there being normal weather patterns.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Lunox'][font=trebuchet ms]Or when you write a 14 page paper on bogs in Irish poetry. BOGS. [/font][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"] ...Why Lunox if I might ask were you given such an esoteric subject to write about as bogs in Irish poetry ?[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Right now I'm listening to the third soundtrack from Bleach and I have to say I'm loving the Spanish style of this album and it's a shame we only get snippets of it in the series.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Rachmaninoff']And here I was thinking it's because members are either still at home (High School) or out going to College (which sucks you dry of money). [/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]True enough, I'm just waiting for my bank-balance for college to finally dip into four negative figures... :animesigh[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Weddings and funerals are about the only two occasions now able to bring my large outer-family together as a group, and especially in the case of the latter it's good to see them and catch up.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Speaking of 00's dubs, maybe it's just me here but had anyone noticed that Lockon's accent in the dub is distinctly American despite his supposed Irish background ? I know getting a decent Irish accent from a non-Irish actor is damn near impossible but an attempt would've been nice.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Lots of plastic, far too little paper.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Stephanie'][size=1]...that was so wrong, on so many levels.[/size][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]I suppose I should've mentioned that the only time I eat back at the house is a light snack in the evening, as I can get better quality food quite cheaply in college restaurants. Apparently it's an American thing to put "peeps" into microwaves to watch them swell up to ten times their normal size and then deflate, as a European I am intrigued by the custom and would like to learn more.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]I'm still kinda hoping that Kubo just brought him back to have Hali finish the job quickly to really plant the knife in that the captains aren't invincible against the big three. It's very unlikely at this point, almost as unlikely as Hali actually willing I suppose but I live in hope. As for Barrigan, sure a proper view of his fully released form would be nice but Kubo would have to put in a heck of a lot of work to go from awesome to suckage.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Meant to show this to Al earlier when I was talking to him but meh I guess I'll just have to share it with everyone now.

[quote name='Rachmaninoff']Not having a microwave for a week sucked. You don't think about how much you use one until you don't have it. o_O[/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Lord is this true as a college student and though I'm fully capable of cooking, if I can't just whack it in the microwave for 5/10 minutes I get takeout instead.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Well this (next ?) week's spoilers are out hella early... ...and Hitsugaya is still alive and not only that but still has bankai and is apparently combat ready. Please excuse me while I go outside and scream loudly at the injustice of the world. Better. In addition Barrigan talks about the the "way of death" for each of the Espada, smacks Soifon about a little and then releases to become the most awesome looking Arrancar yet. Seriously Kubo has made up for every lame Espada release ever with this one character. [/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Back in my day your parents obsessed that you were going to be targeted by paedophiles in every forum you entered. Now it's great television...not!![/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Amazed that no other oldie has mentioned this but surely any flag of OB would have to feature Otakubot.[/SIZE]

[quote name='chibi-master']And just how is Gavin going to fix this problem, being the CEO of Wal-Mart?[/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]In keeping with my policy of always trying to improve Wal-Mart's customer satisfaction the manager of that particular store has since been recalled to headquarters for some supplementary...[I][URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRFkCIQAjBU]training[/URL][/I]. ...Also for anyone interested we have senior management level openings in two of our Florida branches and are seeking experienced, competent individuals to fill them.[/SIZE]
