  1. You should totally watch Monster. Yeah do this. (even though I haven't seen it yet) Also, Texhnolyze. Very much so.
  2. ohai there. ;D Hi. ;D (need I point out that I meant what I said in a completely G-rated fashion. Just sayin', most of the east Asian girls I've met have been lovely.) No offense to anyone, but I really hate stereotypes like this. Being Jewish, I've heard people tell me that they like Jewish people because they're so nice or smart. I would rather them tell me that they hate me as an individual than say they like my background as a whole. Labeling or attributing such a large group of people with such a sweeping generalization is is nothing short of a provincial worldview. And in my eyes, it is almost de-humanizing to say a whole group of people acts a certain way. No, people are dynamic, and a society will have a large spectrum of personalities. Hence why I said: "most of the east Asian girls I have met." Sorry if I offended you though. Didn't mean to. Also, being both ginger and of Irish descent, I put up with a fair amount of [generally negative] stereotyping.
  3. Between the Buried and Me - More of Myself to Kill
  4. The last two pages of this thread were insane. Heh. Anyway, people texting in public pisses me off to no goddamn end.

    Eat something, hot bath, cup of tea, sleep. Works for me every time.
  7. Yeah. I really disliked the end pairing of Clannad too, so that kind of killed it for me also. At least it wasn't quite as horribly cheesy as Toradora. I mean, I liked Toradora a lot - but it was almost painfully predictable. I have only ever shed tears of happiness when watching anime, and that was with Aria.
  8. Church of Misery - Green River bassin'
  9. Technology Korean/Chinese/Japanese girls Mechanical things - bonus if I can take it apart and put it back together again I wouldn't really say I love any entertainment media such as music, TV, etc. They're more casual things I do to pass time rather than a love.
  10. It's 1440x900, not enough? Or what do you mean? My resolution on my screen is that, and it does fine. It's a cheap panel. My 13" laptop nearly approaches the same resolution versus a screen 4" larger. Since laptops tend to be closer to you, the higher resolution comes in handy. Color accuracy and contrast also need to be taken into account. This is coming from someone about to throw out a 1080p 21.5" (crappy TN panel, even at $180) monitor in favor of a S-IPS or H-IPS panel for better viewing angles, contrast, brightness, and color accuracy. Unfortunately these are somewhat hard to come by at a decent price, especially those with LED backlighting so at best I'll be spending $750 for a monitor at the same resolution and size as the one I currently have. I've looked at VA panels, but the refresh rate vs. color accuracy is too much; I'd rather take the refresh rate and save some cash.TN panels are quite fine for the average user. Sure, they have that annoying dithered effect and they can look washed-out, but yeah. You get what you pay for. I would love an IPS panel though. Maybe I'll see if I can get one when I have enough money to spare. Now: I would go with that Toshiba personally. A couple of my buddies have Toshibas and I have to say, I would definitely like one to replace my old eMachines one that's nearing the end of its lifespan.
  11. Glad to hear you liked it. Firo is a favourite of mine too. I also really liked Ladd too. Honestly, it isn't really as sad as people make it out to be. Some of it was quite hard-hitting emotions-wise, but I couldn't really relate to it. Myself;Yourself and Kanon hit home one hell of a lot harder with me.
  12. Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts I-V
  13. Well, all Lucky Star episodes are practically the same thing: One huge Haruhi advert.

    I'm sorry but sugar in tea tastes disgusting. What ?! I don't mean an Oz [bleep] Lotto truckload [Aussie allusion to upcoming lottery] I mean half a teaspoon. But that makes it too sweet! Also, things are looking up. Looks like I landed myself a job!
  15. It's people who take the Internet seriously that make trolling as fun as it is. I come online to chill and crack jokes about everyone and everything I don't like, and if people want to believe that I'm 100% serious all the time then I'm not going to call myself responsible if they get offended by me. Now I'm not like someone who posts "LOL [bleep]S" for the sake of it, but I have started arguments with controversial comments because I was bored and had nothing else to do with my time. It can be pretty funny to see people take a blatantly uninformed and uneducated comment and flame it and each other for pages and pages on a forum. I'm not trying to justify it, but let me put it this way: trolling is a part of the Internet whether you like it or not. Just to rehash and paraphrase what has already been said here: when people are given anonymity, they will do all sorts of things because the chance of consequence for their actions is almost nonexistent.
  16. ^ Indeed they did. Pink Floyd - Empty Spaces Currently in the mood for some Floyd, for some reason unknown to me.
  17. Rage over. Now, I might find my mum's Thriller record and put it on later. Rest in peace.
  18. I must pull in about 50-75GB a month, but that's not just anime.

    Today: lazing around, not doing much. Heard back from both colleges I applied to - rejected for under-qualification, as I expected. Life goes on.
  21. Katatonia - I Am Nothing Been some time since I last played this album. It's pretty great.
