Title: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Hasith on March 25, 2009, 11:01:01 AM
Well Anyone and everyone can have talk about all off topic crap here. and EVERYONE KEEP other topics free off chit chat. otherwise usually i have clean threads once every month which is a *censored*ty job for everyone and me. Coz I hate to do useless stuff (typical lazyass u can say) and you guys loose yr post count by deleted posts ..

So keep all gossip and chit chat here in this post ..

XD well hasith how much ecchi to you watch per day?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Corycaly on March 28, 2009, 12:00:28 PM
how many ecchi stocked on your pc?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Hasith on March 28, 2009, 12:46:06 PM

well I have all episodes of To Love Ru in my pc, Since that's the first one I watched. All other Ecchi Anime I watched Online.

Well since i noticed some have mentioned in few thread no one knows about me so I think to post few things here. you can take me as something totally opposite of Corycaly.

* Volcano Type - Other way .. I don't get mad for everything .. Usually only about technical stuff. Usually I ignore anything which doesn't effect me.

* Sensitive - I don't give a crap about what others say or do about me unless it directly effects me

* Stress - I think Stress = Boredness  Otherwise I don't believe there is such a thing.

* Talkative - I get talkative only if I'm bored. I believe in talk less and work more. Also no time for that.

* Predictable - Other way .. you would never know what I would do. Someone might think I'm soft , Yes I'm try to *censored* me and you will find what kinda hell you can get.

* Handling people - I know exactly how to do it. misjudge me and you will find how bad it can be. For eg last year there was a new member who posted a promo Manga talk board. So i just d pmed him not to do it and didnt move the thread to promo section. Next day he promo threads were everywhere. I simply deleted his account with all his posts no warnings as rules says. I'm nice yep, But try to make a fool out of me and you ll find out how much *censored* you can get.

Well ask me any question you have here , I ll try to answer ...

It's realy hard to make good replies, even more when you are a mod or an admin because you have to stay calm and with a higher point of view. Hasith always tells me he should create a "zen workshop" just for me lol
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on March 30, 2009, 06:15:44 PM
we should probably all just have a zen workshop so everybody will be a little bit more peacefull

Yeeaaah He's soo coool^^- What was his abilities now?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: dawood on April 01, 2009, 12:41:43 PM
very little is known about mihawk... all we know is he's the best swordsman in the world and he's a shichibukai...  very mysterious guy.. lol

he could have an ability or he could just have a serious amount of hakki (ambition- it's a trait which only the very strong member's of one piece have,  shanks, rayliegh, whitebeard etc.)

there has been speculation that his sword is made from kairoseki (sea stone - a mineral which nullifies the powers of fruit users) but thats just a myth nothing has been confirmed

but the next time him and zoro fight it's gonna be awesome

Post by: dawood on August 12, 2009, 11:58:11 PM
cause you cant beat Chronos eating all his kids so they cant turn against him.

i haven't read that one but there are loads....   like story of hercules, jason and the argonauts, the minotaur, ikarus trying to fly to the sun... also stories of titans... like atlas having to hold up the sky ( not the globe like it was portrayed in the statue)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: AnimeDoodler on August 13, 2009, 12:00:55 AM
they are all great stories ^^
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on August 13, 2009, 09:38:56 AM
well Chronos was the father of Zeus. He swallowed all his kids so his parents wouldnt go against him. when Zeus was born his mother switched him out for a rock which chronos swallowed whole. years later Zeus poisoned Chronos and got him to vomit up his now fully grown siblings. Zeus with the help of his siblings and a few other disgruntled members of the family toppled Chronos and established his kingdom on top of mount olympis.

I don't believe in them but I'm still deathly afraid of one popping out of the darkness at me after a scary movie.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on August 26, 2009, 11:48:34 AM
i completely believe that zombies do or can exist. if there isnt a natural zombie virus yet you can bet your ass some government type will think its a good idea to make one.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

And that is why I study martial arts. As long as they're resident evil zombies, I can handle that. If they're 28 Days Later zombies, we're all doomed.

martial arts wont help if you dont have a weapon. if you get so much as a scratch and the virus gets in your a dead man. theres a reason i keep a blunt object handy at all times. but as long as the zombies are slow we're good. if we get runners. well ill see you guys on the other side.

but speaking of zombies

So Rob just brought up an interesting topic. Of my two mythical creatures, which would win in a fight? Pet Manrock or Gravemaker? xD
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Robs_ugly_artwork on August 26, 2009, 10:35:13 PM
Pet Manrock!!! FTW!! .. ManRock would make Grave Maker "LOL" so hard he would just either forfeit or die!  :confused: :laughing11:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: SaiHawkeye on August 26, 2009, 10:39:48 PM
I believe the ferocity of Pet Manrock's stare would leave Gravemaker in a state of confusion and probably stab himself. >.<
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

lol, make his own grave    :tongue:

I do hope that you know of the utter nastiness of the very thought of chocolate flavored soda. >.<  I went ahead and made a real flavor people might actually buy. Maybe Pet Manrock won't be as mad with the citrus flavor.

Don't believe in yourself! Believe in me to believe in you!

So I bought and finally watched Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann and it is as amazing as people say! It brings me back to old school anime but with better character development and of course animation. Although it has very ecchi elements in the show, the basis of the episodes I saw so far are encouraging in a relationship of brotherhood, even if they're not blood-related.

I can't wait to see the latter episodes tonight and  tomorrow. =)

It was a grade 10 project and it was mostly us goofing around, totally off from what I wanted, but as long as I pass French, or not...can you believe the course for Drama is considered a second language course? My back-up for failing French, what? Don't know how to speak French in France? I do the mime!

We are here now, Hasith. :angel:
Also, this is my last day in town so, I decided I wasn't spending it in school. I am now at the library with Litt.
And to continue the last idea, anyone know a way for us to contribute more, that on my part doesnt involve writing or drawing...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Account Disabled on March 18, 2010, 08:55:56 AM
Hey, I'll be writing, why don't you try to practice your drawing skills.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Hasith on March 18, 2010, 10:04:18 AM
There is another way to contribute. You can recruit more active members to MR. Most member who really care about Manga Drawing or writing or even about Manga or Anime would be great for our community.

Writers from Fanfic.net or artists from Facebook.com. Also there are many other places.

Also Sumi Take part Drawing workshops too.

I got my friend involved, but he made 2 posts in total and hasn't been active, one of those was in his own topic.
I might do some workshops, but I really doubt it would help.
I could always start playing jokes on the members here  :-\  ;) :naughty:

And I will also invite friends from the Viral world.

Lucky for you, all the anime fans around my town are either people I already know, which is very limited, old people who like adult themed manga, or random Naruto/Bleach/Other mainstream only mangas.

(edit) + the time it takes to drive to the place I have to help him... (=1 hour) + it's "adult time"... I'm in despair!

Homework I need done: Some kind of essay (=2½ hour) math (=3 hours+/-)

It's 13:00 now... So I'm in theory finished at 21:30.... + eating.... 22:00 (If I eat while doing homework...) + plus I get slower the time goes by... So I'm probably finished at 23:00 o' clock if I work non-stop  :'( :'( :'(

Got an X-ray, asked people if I went back to ask, they said I'd get a call, I never got a call, most likely because nobody is home, also, chest still hurts. Random chest pains, etc, I'm 15...chest pains...there's gotta be something wrong here.

me: WTF!

and he did, man 5 teeth at once, I looked pretty silly for a while xD

in other news i just finished writer a chapter with so many sexual themes it's hard to keep track. its safe to say by now that in arc 2 the story looses it's innocence. if you get my meaning
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

That's not weird, I end up with things like that as well, sometimes a dirty joke, etc. And if anything, I believe I'd read enough mature manga for it to be natural to read those kinds of themes.

Break your jaw...I wonder how they do that. *Falcon Paunch!*
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on April 07, 2010, 10:44:20 PM
well i didnt say it was weird. just that it was. and that i rally havnt put anything like that in the story before. they type of relationships in arc 1 were not sexually inclined or anything so its a new experience for me as a writer.

both. of course when i was first creating the story the idea that Coryn had stayed abstinent did cross my mind. always thought it would be more inkeeping with the can do no wrong aspect he originally had. of course he was a LOT younger back then. 10,000 came a lot later.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

What do you mean? They suddenly figure out pi? Was the result delicious?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Fnnenn Enninn on April 08, 2010, 04:05:13 PM
The thing is, it's a matter of finite space.

Examine the next picture: It is 3.5
(http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m55/sumi66/Draft.jpg)
A filled in box represents one whole. A half shaded box is the decimal point.

Now examine the next
(http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m55/sumi66/Draft2.jpg)
That is 3.58, note the extra grey shaded area.
What this shows is that, with each number added on after the decimal place, more space in the bar is consumed. This creates a finite volume, and even though each number added after the last gets increasingly less effective almost to the point of it not even mattering, that it will STILL fill more space. Eventually that space will fill completely, and the result after the decimal, will have to equal one whole.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on April 08, 2010, 04:11:19 PM
thats not mathematically true though. as pi continues it just becomes more and more precise. the only way for pi to end is if they find it starts repeating.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Fnnenn Enninn on April 08, 2010, 04:16:53 PM
Nothing besides the number line, is infinite, theres is a set space between intervals. Even if Pi becomes more accurate, it eventually has to reach maximum capacity.
This also applies for things like 0.999 reapeating.

P.S. I would pay to see a movie called Maxium Capacity if it was about numbers 8)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on April 08, 2010, 06:13:30 PM
i dont think you quite understand the concept of irrational numbers. lets use an example. take the graph of 1/x.

(http://www.revisioncentre.co.uk/gcse/maths/1overx.gif)

see those curved lines? they look like that at some point they will reach zero and cross the axis's. this however is not true. no matter how far you go along those lines you will only get closer and closer to zero. .001, .0001, .00001, .0000000001 or what ever. you will never reach zero because you can always add another zero.

its similar to the way in thinking that pi will end because there isnt enough space. while there is a defined space the line will never reach reach zero. and as it is with pi it will only become more and more accurate.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Fnnenn Enninn on April 08, 2010, 06:27:14 PM
That makes sense, it's also a little bit depresing.

No matter how far that little 3.1415 tries it can never be a full 4 =[
Also 3/3 though may seem full, will never reach perfection.
I think I'm going to go create a demotivational poster about this.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on April 08, 2010, 06:31:05 PM
well that depends on what your definition of perfection is. cause 3/3 leaves no room for expansion if 3 was some sort of limit. but thats something different than finding the end of pi because there is no limit for pi to reach.

Honestly I don't know. The problem is that  Yuko has three strange buns, which I wanted to make using a wig ponytail. I tried to glue one bun: the glue appeared all white on the black hair. T___T

I think I'll cut the hair from the ponytail, glue it on a hair roller and glue the hair roller back on the wig ponytail.  And of course I'll use a different glue, maybe hot glue which won't whiten all my wig.

I used "glue in spray", a general glue I bought on a brico market. It sure glues....but whitens all the wig too!

I finally used a hot glue and It went perfect. You can see the details in the cosplay section!

I'd prefer something Asian or Dutch or German, depending on if I ever decide to chuck fun out the window and go into business.
Not even that, just the medical profession if I do go for it, I'd like to go where I am in demand, which could possibly be somewhere European or Asian, not too much a fan of France sort of indifferent to it, I guess it's more of a femine thing to want to go to Paris and see the lights.

I'm going to make that catch on.
Maybe thats what MR needs, a meme to get it attention.

Depends on the meme, doesn't it? I think MR would need some sort of icon or that, I mean, do we even have a logo? We need something to represent us...just (super) Sayin'
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on April 17, 2010, 02:11:00 PM
who knows. but we dont have a logo. i think it was it was always co and haisth's idea that they didnt wat to try and make a logo cause they didnt want people to disagree over it. or something like that.

Excitement would more or less fill in that gap of happiness.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Fnnenn Enninn on April 17, 2010, 06:37:37 PM
No, if we were to create a meme, it would be respctable.
The just (super) sayin' thing gave me the idea.

But, on another note, it wouldn't be possible, since if the meme doesn't come from 4chan, it isnt a meme.
I think if we tried hard enough it could be possible, by producing it from 4chan, and creating it's origins in MR, using knowyourmeme or something. But it would be hard, and would take more then just me, anyone else here sadly familiar with /b/?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Account Disabled on April 17, 2010, 06:41:27 PM
I've only visited 4chan about 4 times in my life, yeah, so I wouldn't know anything. How long would it take to get used to it though? I can always learn.

I still have yet to learn what it was about, the three first times, I didn't know how to navigate 4chan, then the 4th time where I found the infamous /b/ thread, all I saw were pictures of breasts, may it be male or female.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Fnnenn Enninn on April 17, 2010, 09:09:41 PM
All the ads in /b/ are pr0n since it's a 18+ board

Well, thats one of the biggest things Funnyjunk complains about when they say "Funnyjunk is way better than 4chan, hurrderp, takes forever to find funny things on 4chan and you get it instantly here"

4chan's /b/ is not all about funny things, thats why it can take a long time, also I find more funny things in /b/ than on Funnyjunk.
Sometimes there won't be a You raff you ruse thread going on, usually one or two per day, so check back soon and you will find it for sure.
When I say check back soon, I mean, at your own risk.

Yeah, i heard. Supernatural, however, begs to differ, with some amount of support. The Holiday happens around the Winter Soltice, and the ideas of wreaths and holly are based on pagan rituals. Hey, i think its conspiracy, but i've seen 'bout five trustworthy links. Plus Supernatural. Which is an awesome horror series. [Has its problems but meh.]
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on May 13, 2010, 04:13:40 PM
moving on to historical facts. the winter soltice has to do with the holiday itself not santa. December 25th was the day that romans celebrated their sun god. the church put christmas on the same day as a way to help rub out the old pagan ways. and wreaths and holly didnt come much later but thats because there are only so many things in nature that are still pretty during the winter months and can be used for decoration

i cant say too much on that subject. cant say i've ever done any deep research into easter. i believe that easter is more acurate for the time of the year. as for the eggs they represented the rebirth of the earth in celebrations of spring to early christians and so they were adopted to represent the resurrection of christ

i find it unlikely that you will. i just watch the history channel more than any other tv network.

Post by: legomaestro on May 13, 2010, 04:26:39 PM
Its actually fun to collect lots of data on various things. For one thing. You look a heck of a lot smart. For another, its a writer's chest of medals, collecting as much knowledge as you can before your poor brain ages...

- and dies. (Dramatic. No?)

(Also good for a writer to have as much knowledge for inspiration and referencing...)

Edit: Yep, History channel definately works.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Account Disabled on May 13, 2010, 04:29:17 PM
By that logic, I'm a horrible writer, I know close to nothing when it comes to history or the like, knowledge is boring and memorization is bothersome, my future is looking bleak all of a sudden.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

not necessarily. i write on a very epic scale so its much more important for me i suppose. it all will depend on the story.

@ Litt Heh, was it boring when you learnt how to use you're PC? Wait, you probably don't remember. That's usually how it is with knowledge. He sneaketh in your mind without your knowledge
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Account Disabled on May 13, 2010, 04:43:00 PM
Still I can't use that knowledge to a great extent for the content of a story, things such as science, history, geography, practical things that could be used in stories is what I find quite boring.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on May 13, 2010, 04:51:25 PM
No kidding, i lean toward manga literature to evade that fact. I find so many sci-fi writer's knowledge too much [Clarke, Asimov. Both such Geniuses...]. I've been destroyed by the fact that some writers are just too good at what they do... And now i see certain people here STILL bombarding me with amazing scripts and imagination...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Account Disabled on May 13, 2010, 04:53:56 PM
I've liked manga above all else anyways, so I'm basically lying on it rather than leaning towards. I get the same feeling though, always seeing how people are so skilled, you begin to question your own abilities, but I figure I'll just have to get better so I can compete.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on May 13, 2010, 04:56:12 PM
My idea is that since the technicals and thickness of poetry fades a little, i'll write more words. I'm currently aiming for One hundred thousand words by the end of this month. Problem is... How to get em read... Tis fun anyway. Definately beats being ripped by the technical vultures i meet sometimes in the more hardcore sites...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Account Disabled on May 13, 2010, 04:58:46 PM
A hundred thousand? I'm barely doing 5000 words a month, what story are you planning to use?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on May 13, 2010, 05:01:43 PM
This one called Skythe. Manga. Fantasy. I usually do sci-fi, but these last two months have been hitting me with fantasy.

Its a crazy, figure, i know, but i do 1500 every one-two days as an average. And i spread out the work for the whole day, and write each chapter short like the manga's do to annoy their readers [that's what i think, anywya.] it works for me, so yeah...

5000 words ain't nothing. You're hitman story definately was something... But it frustrates me to know this. That means i'll never see your fantasy... eh?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Account Disabled on May 13, 2010, 05:09:20 PM
No, no, I'm starting my fantasy next week, it's just that I've barely done anything recently other than slowly progress with my collab with Iceh, so it feels like I've only done a little bit, as for Prey, that was spread out over quite a bit of time...I think, memory bad.

I don't think 100,000 words is very crazy if you're in the mood to create, I've done it before, though the quality of the story was horrible and I dumped it somewhere in a folder someplace...I think it'd be best to decide on an amount of chapters instead, trying for 100,000 words is overboard, so why not try 5-10 chapters a month, which is already quite frequent.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on May 13, 2010, 05:12:21 PM
Hmmmm, it might be overboard... i'll consider it... But i've done Fourty Thousand words in a week... The story came out well, thanks to the fact that my dad is an experienced editor...

wait 100,000 words? first of all why are you keeping track of words instead of content and 100,000 words? i mean my arc one was only 41,000 words long
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on May 13, 2010, 09:27:34 PM
@ Litt yeah. The only reason i continued writing amidst the less than encouraging critiscism

@ Coryn I started the story as a challenge to myself, and then the content has gradually presented  itself. I'm aiming for that amount of words to finish the entire work, with no sequels. [Probably divide it up after i'm done. According to Light Novel format that's uh, 15000 words per volume/book? So around Eight parts...]

Which will make it shorter than yours.

My mom would love anything by Hayao Miyazaki but she would never read manga, or watch most things. I actually think if I showed her some she would be a fan of the slice of life genre, expect that she never stays with things long when she likes them. Princess Tutu though? Maybe, but she would most likely get distracted.

Dad would get distracted immediately, Wyatt would continuously ask me questions and say it doesn't make any sense.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Still have yet to check the show out myself.

On a side note, just cleaned the basement for a promised $50, I'm dirty, tired, and pretty sure there's a spider on me somewhere...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: matsurinoaoi on May 22, 2010, 10:32:01 PM
Sp...spider...
*shudder*
Princess Tutu is about a girl named Ahiru ("Duck" in Japanese, I think), who lives in a boarding school of some sort, and she has the ability to turn into a superhero named Princess Tutu. However, she turns into a duck afterwards.
Oh, there's a prolouge, too. It says something about a Prince and a Monster Crow locked into eternal battle, and they were both sick of it, so the Prince sacrificed his heart to seal away the crow.

A Buddist shrine. So, I was supposed to hit the bell three times, but on the third hit the bell swung back and hit the hammer thing I was hitting it with a fourth time. And, in Japanese at least, 4=Shi=Death. Afterwards, the rain that was forcast for that day didn't happen, my fellow traveling companions and I got seats on a supercrowded bus, we saw a bunch of cute cats, I found a store that sold really cheap manga books, and by chance at the last minute my family and I decided to go to this really good restaurant that looked like very little from the outside (best vegtable curry I've had in my life). As though Fate was sending me off with a smile.

Then my own answer is no. Last time I tried it I was close to screaming, I can't handle spicy. By the way, thanks for the apple cider Sumi.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on June 19, 2010, 09:34:58 PM
well the chips themselves werent all that spicy. and i've never eaten real wasabi in my memory to compare it to. id give them a try if you can find them if only for the fact of trying them .

A guy in the same grade as me went out to lunch with my friends and I for lunch near the end mid-terms this year and he took a dare to eat the entire wasabi piece that was given with the sushi from where we were eating. The piece was only as big as a six sided die and yet he was crying and almost vomited. I on the other hand watched as I peacefully ate my full chicken.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on June 19, 2010, 09:54:28 PM
i never did. but i do believe in trying everything at least once hence why i ate the chips. even though they werent overly green
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: matsurinoaoi on June 19, 2010, 11:38:38 PM
Same here. That's usually my excuse for eating something that would take twenty minutes on a treadmill to burn off.
I...don't really like wasabi. I've never consumed it in a particuarly large (dice-sized) amount, but you don't need that much to get an idea of how it tastes. They always put it in the sashimi...*mumble mumble*
I don't eat soy sauce, either. My Japanese realatives were like, "Why? It makes it taste better!" But if I eat raw fish with soy sauce...it overpowers the fish, you know? (I tell that to everyone who points out my lack of soy sauce consumption, but they still don't understand...)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Lirne on June 20, 2010, 12:05:22 AM
Once, I was eating sushi, and there was a huge piece of green stuff at the corner of the plate. Me being an idiot thinking it was tasty looking, took a big mouthful of it. I was literally drinking water for like a hour straight.

Jones is the best, a friend of mine got her picture on the bottle, which was pretty cool.
Also, I tried the "Orange you Glad for Change" flavour, and it was delicious. Turkey and gravy, I'm not thinking so much.

I want to order the D&D flavours too, that sounds like a worthwhile endevour.

Last night, I realized what's in my future. Here's the tale:

It was 2am in the morning, and I was bringing up my dishes from my snack, I had at 1:30, when I got up stairs, dad was sitting in the kitchen having a beer with his girlfriend, so I was rumaging through the freezer, and couldn't find my icecream, then I was digging in the cupboards and found a fetticuini alfredo Sidekicks thing. I took it out and held it to him and asked "Can you make me this?" With a look of amazement.
So, he said yes and put it on the stove, I had nothing to do while I waited, since I wanted the snack to finish the last episode of Inuyasha, and was going to start before. So I led face down on the sofa in the living room, which is connected to my kitchen, and started humming the Pokèmon theme. While doing this, my dad came over and started to talk to me about responsibility and getting a job (also something about cleaning my room) so in response I rolled over into the back of the couch and started singing the Pokèmon theme louder.
Eventually my watched started to beep, since I had it set to go off when the package said the food would be done, so I rolled off the couch onto the floor, not quite getting my legs in place in time, and half tumbling onto the floor. I stood up and took the pot and all off of the burner and brought it down stairs after saying thanks and pouring a drink of whatever I grabbed first in the fridge.

My future isn't too bright is it >.>

No, you have to do something daily like ask yourself "am I in a dream?" a lot. Then, when you're asleep, you might repeat that sentence in your dream. so, then, you might actually ask that question to yourself in the dream, then you know you're dreaming.

But, I don't bother with that.
I already had a lucid dream before and it felt awesome.

I woke up, showered and checked my mails. Noticed a new mail. Check the title.

"Tornament Mashima 2010"

I then remember I had taken part on a kind of lottery made by Fairytail French editor some weeks ago to win special tickets to meet Hiro Mashima, the author of the manga Fairytail. I had thought "why not" and had taken part without illusion.

I open the mail.

"We are happy to announce you have won a ticket for a special exclusive sign up session from Hiro Mashima (author of the manga Fairytail)  next saturday during Japan Expo."

...

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Corycaly on June 30, 2010, 02:49:21 PM
I'll try to make contacts with fanzines or other fan sites like us, first to share experiences than to see if any promo stuff can be done. I'll print cards and put them on the convention if possible.

I'll try to find informations about reliable online printers: shouldn't be hard with hundreds of fanzines around lol

I'll be frank saying that a 2 days trip may be a little short to really make a good promo about our site.

 The best would be to have a Mangaraiders stand, with members selling drawings/anthologies etc. It's the best way to meet people and create links. That implies several elements:
. having several mangaraiders in Paris at Japan expo to take care of the stand
. money to pay for the stand, to print the stuff to be sold
. organisation to bring all the stuff there
etc etc etc

For now, that's just a big dream lol

I got a part time job during June. It was fun... and volunteer... but i actually got paid.


Bought 30 books at a local bookstore after.


No... the salary wasn't much. The books were cheap.

Patience!

Lots of fun, some deceptions but still I'm lucky!

I just regret to have missed the Vivid showcase and sign up session. I learnt that guys were evacuated from the Vivid sessions because they were KO after being hit by hysteric fan girls. Learning this, I was probably lucky to have missed those cute guys.
I regret to have missed Pandora Hearts signing session. Maybe a next time T__T

I LOVED GAMUSHARA OENDAN: those crazy japanese supporters were hilarious!!!!

Its the conspirancy of the universe... i could swear someone suddenly wants to talk to me when i'm busy enjoying myself or having a peaceful laze.

Reading latest episode of Bleach: "Oh, Morde go wash the dishes."

Sudden once in a moment inspiration: "Hey, have you seen this thing on TV? No?... blablablablabla"

Peaceful laze: "Hey, have you seen this? Yes? Do you remember that part... blablablablab"
and so on and so forth.

... okay, i'm feeling particularly irked today.

I'm the same way! Only I've recently started waking up at 6:50 since it's summer vacation...If I wake up at eight, I'm like, "What?! I could have drawn/read so much during that time!"

wow matsu, you keep a journal? How long? Mine tends to last one week. At most.
Just started one. I think I'll be using it pretty often, though. A few manga statistics, techniques, patterns, etc. Some written reasearch as well (from Wikipedia, mostly, since it's more for fun than a report, you know?  :tongue: ), such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and stuff. But, yeah, a journal llD

Chinese+Guy+Taller Than Most Of My Family+Not Ugly+English Speaking=Hell Am I popular in China. God China is awesome.

That's a lucky combination, if you ask me.

my uncle's a brigadier (i have no idea what position that is exactly, but its neatish... i guess). He's okay, apart from the impulsive lectures on adolescence.

Yep. You know what i mean. He's covered every possible awkard topic there is in the book.

no instruments except a vuvuzela
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on August 02, 2010, 02:41:07 PM
sorta difficult to play though. where with other instruments its basically its a series of button pushes with the trombone its a lot of very specific positions along the slide. since there are only two real reference points and like 9 positions it can get a little confusing.

edit: haha...vuvuzela
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: [aero] on August 02, 2010, 02:43:00 PM
yeahe ive tried a trombone before, all i could do was a sliding note x_x

I have a flute, keyboard, violin, guitar, bass, and a mandolin at one point.
I at one point could play all of those, except the bass which I can not for the life of me play well.
I want to take up the violin again though since it was the only thing I liked much, and wasn't just forced to do it by my mom >,>
Flute was fun too I guess... Though the stuff we played in band was lame.
Also, I have a crap load of percussion and small woodwind things I don't know frig all about.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on August 02, 2010, 02:46:34 PM
i hated band class. though it might not have been as bad if i wasnt the only trombone in the band.

and i always wanted to learn to play violin. i've always found it to be a very romantic instrument
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: [aero] on August 02, 2010, 02:47:41 PM
i took extra lessons too for the trumpet, but thats cause i had to be first chair....

i had a bass for a while, got it from a friend

loads of fun to play, and now i want my own... too bad its gone...

Post by: Fnnenn Enninn on August 08, 2010, 01:26:17 AM
I just went to Summer rush WHOOOO!
Pretty fun, there were motherF*^%ing candy apples! I thought I would miss them this year because I'm missing the fair back in homecountry. Then out of nowhere, CANDY APPLES! Sure, they were for the children, and you can't eat one without getting candy stains on your lips, but its so damn worth it... But I digress.

The lineup was.... full of people I don't know and never cared to remember.
Faber Drive was alright.

Stereos was, Stereos so not good. Except they made shirts that say "I hate Stereos" for all the people who hate them (who they also addressed on stage) which is a pretty neat way to advertise. I think it mistakes fame for infamy though...

Jay Sean, who I never heard of before was a huge bastard. He can beat box so he decided to show off and have a battle with his DJ, but DJ vs. beat boxing (not much of a duel since the DJ didn't actually play anything) and one of the songs he used was "Technologic" - Daft Punk, which he raped horribly by not getting the words right and adding "baby" to the end of it. For that I hate him with a passion.

LMFAO, who I never heard before and only guessed they were decent because of their fanbase, was so bad. Absolutely terrible. They were the worst excuse for musicians I have ever heard, I don't even know how they have a fanbase.

I had no idea who Kardinal Offishall was, I think was better that way. Though he did do that "dangerous girl" song which I find really catchy.

Down With Webster was high energy and great as usual, though they sound better in small venues.

Lil' John was an act, but he only ever came on stage when he had to replace Lil' Wayne in a few featured songs >,>

And Hedley was wicked! Though the front man, Jacob Hoggard has a pedostache now, which was sort of funny. I still loved when they played.

And they were out of Candy apples by the end so I didn't get one to take home  :'(

A funny thing was, when Hedley first came on I was standing next to this girl about my age, and she had some beer with her. And about half way through her first can she was totally whacked... Like she got wasted from half a can of Bud's Light. She could stand up but she was swaying slightly and she was laughing randomly and retarded sounding. Made me laugh quite a bit xP

And also, 700 pound drunk people should not shove their way to the front, it's a bad bad idea.  >:(
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on August 08, 2010, 04:42:53 AM
That's amazing, you saw Faber Drive and Kardinal Official? Those two i definately know. Sounds (forgive the pun) like it was quite an experience!

Going for a two hour trek up a mountain peak. To this place called Shingwe's Hole. It has quite the myth aroun it.

For one, if you climb down the hole even just a little your skin color changes. (Darker colors go lighter and lighter colors go darker e.g I'd end up white)

Two, they say J.R.R Tolkien got his inspiration for The Cracks Of Doom from there. (A volcano mountain in The Lord of The Rings.)

Three... is actually true. The first president was a dictator and he threw alot of his opposition down that hole... creepy.

Anyway this is what i shall face. Who knows, maybe i;ll get inspired to make a bestselling fantasy as a result :)

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on August 08, 2010, 04:10:32 PM
... okay, the quality turned out better than anticipated. Sad thing though... just 30 minutes away from the target and we had to go back down the mountain... my (niece?) was too tired and e.t.c (she's only eleven, and we'd hiked quite aways)

Since the mountain looks a lot the same everywhere its all random. These are the best sights i saw. Sorry for the pic flood.




(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/william_falls.jpg)

William's falls. Yay to English conquerors. They're plenty other odd names around. Victoria falls, Butterfly Falls e.t.c



(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/Image0276.jpg)

Just a couple of tall trees that caught my interest.



(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/Image0277.jpg)

I like shoe photos... Dunno why...


(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/Image0279.jpg)

It is a nice view, but the green just ahead is actually a devilish brew of thorns and ditches


(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/Image0280.jpg)

*Sigh* The failed attempt. The green arrow points at this tower thingy that stands over The Hole. If only you could see the whole view and you'd know how ridiculously far it was. Time was out and the terrain was really bad. This was the final destination of the trek.



(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/Image0288.jpg)

The flowers themselves are simple and fragile, but they have this odd glimmer in them... inspirational...




(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/Image0285.jpg)

Looks like the shrubbery is impassable, right? Well that's the path we had to take to head to The Hole. My hand still hurts from all the thorns...



(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/Image0284.jpg)

In the thick of the path...




(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/view.jpg)

This i liked this pic the most. Ralph (Sister in law's husband) took it.



(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/view1.jpg)

At the scene of our failure, a nice view is the consolation prize. Those mountains ahead have all these shiny rocks... and people there start fires to catch and eat locusts.......

...

...



(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/thefamily_dam.jpg)

And ofcourse, who are the trekkers on this trek? Sitting at Mulunguzi Dam, From Left to Right: Moriah (Big Bro), Itika (Sister in-law), Ana-Lina (Niece? Itika's daughter), Klaus (Step-dad), and Legomaestro. Taking the photo is foul-mouthed, smoking, funny Ralph, Itika's husband.



THE END. At the end of it all i was exhausted and hurting. But i felt damn good after.

P.S. Seriously, sorry for the pic flood.

I saw your status update on Facebook, Litt. It made me laugh pretty good. xD

In other news, I almost got into an epic car accident today. I was about to pull into a toll booth when some guy on my right side decides to cut into my lane every though our cars are neck-and-neck. I see the toll booth worker yell at the other driver before slamming his change into the guy's hand. Then I pull up and the toll booth worker is all "You coulda honked at him! He had a van full of kids standing up and coulda gotten them killed! They weren't even wearing seatbelts!"

That guy at the booth made my day. =)

When my family was driving to Indiana a while ago, we were on the interstate and some chick in a red minivan decided to play chicken with us and start swaying closer and closer until dad had to start honking to get her off. She had two children in the back, one was still in a car seat. I don't have to deal with that in my hometown though, people still can't drive but everyone is OVER9000!!!! years old so they can't figure out a signal light, but it's at 20Km/ph so it's no biggie.

I wouldn't really mind but they did it even though they were almost in their own lane with a concrete divider between us. I was still going 35 MPH at the time and he must've been going at least 45 when he sped up and crashing into a divider meant to crush cars didn't seem like too much fun.

Let's get to another topic. Recently, I've seen this motto of Diesel, a clothing shop. The motto was pretty much promoting 'stupid' people with phrases as: "Smart has the brains, but stupid has the balls" and "Smart listens to the brain, stupid listens to the heart". With this campaign's main phrase being "Be stupid. Diesel".

Now a lot of people have called me smart before. Not because of the level of schooling I get (which is also pretty high, just so you know), but because of the way I think things throuhg, and the way I talk. I have gotten quite an amount of comments about that.

Now I don't want to say that I'm very smart or anything, I just want to say that this campaign offended me. What, so now it's "fashion" to be stupid? So I'm outdated? I'm no geek, I should be able to buy clothes here!

I decided not to, in the end. Do you see what you get when you mess with the WARRIOR?!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: SaiHawkeye on August 09, 2010, 04:13:55 PM
To me, it's their own choice in what they wear. If they think it looks cool, let them think that. It's kinda like those girls who wear things that have letters on their chest or buttocks and get offended when people stare. We're naturally curious about the three measurements and strange text so we get a two-for-one combo right there!

I'm guessing they're targeting the crowd that's trying to be artful. People seem to be breaking off away from the logical and moving towards the illogical these days. They want to challenge "industry" and display "inferiority" as how we're supposed to live (a bit of psychology). The bad part is that it probably is targeting the college market that knows a bit of psychology/literature and try to be hip by displaying their "knowledge."
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Post by: Tostificer on August 09, 2010, 04:23:28 PM
Yes, you have a point there. But I don't know what the circumstances are where you live, which I do think that matter. They matter because here where I live, real 'smart' people are just rare. You don't see them. Even in my class were people which weren't actually smart.

Which means that everybody is 'dumb'. Yes, everybody is a gangster/rapper/bad boy wannabe. Everybody there clothes like that (pretty much), everybody likes that, everybody breathes that, everybody lives that. Boys, girls, no matter what age (we are talking about adolescents between the 12/13 and 17/18).

And this 'lifestyle' affects the whole country. The average IQ of this country, for instance, is less than 100! I don't know if that's normal, but I know that mine is over 125 by now. More, is that everybody here does lower levels because of their lack of intelligence (or will). These levels of education (should) last 4 years (after the 8 years of primary school which is the same for everyone, such a shame). And guess what? Even though the level of education (and difficulty to pass) is quite below average, a student which does the whole traject in actually four years is rare! There is almost nobody which passes without having to do another year.

And it concerns me that people actually promote that as well.

Do you know at what age these people start smoking? 12 years old! All of them! Do you know when was the first time they did it? 12 years old? What are we in this world, *censored*ing hookers?

My apologies for my language, it just gets me worked up how much we screwed up in this world.

well people who start smoking at that age are just retarded. though some will argue that smoking at any age isnt very smart too.

Let 'em smoke, it's just a bother to try and change what they chose, their heads are too thick to get the point so let them learn with experience. They can't deny their mistakes then.

Generations change, eventually being smart will be the most advertised thing, it just goes with whatever's popular at the time, who cares? My life is online, I have yet to see a stupid t-shirt cause I can choose where I go and what to look at. NEET for life.

I wish I lived in the time of...wait, anytime before my parents' time would be a pretty crappy and poor life in China. Scratch that, I'm totally fine with my time now.

Really, these 'stupid' people make use of mobile phones, internet (sites such as Facebook) and other scientifical wonders. And who made these things for them? Us, the smart people. And they keep saying that they're (we're) geeks!

But, I guess our time to laugh will come. After ten years, when we all have good jobs, loads of money, nice women (^^), and a healthy life, they'll have suckish jobs, they'll be poor, have bad houses and most of all wacked lungs. Then they'll regret they spent their time hitting on chicks, not-studying and smoking.

I don't think people an really be classified on smart and stupid really. It's just personality, just because a guy stays home all day on a computer playing games doesn't make him some smart nerd, and just cause you smoke and you're a delinquent doesn't mean that you're definitely lacking in intelligence.

You can't foretell the future, you never know and so you shouldn't really base things off of ability only, luck has a lot to do with what'll happen among many other factors, can't just say that everyone that has a high grade will be successful.

Most people here don't really insult anyone smart, they more or less look up to them. They also expect way too much out of one person, most people see me as a smart student when for half the year I goofed off and I actually put a Scrubs quote into one of my English essays about To Kill A Mockingbird.

@Toasty: There isn't a divider between two large groups, it's personality, and that's all. You don't fit in with one group, you fit in with another, you don't fit in with any? You're a loner. The system in school is pretty simple to understand, you need the ability to actually handle it though, I notice many little fights always happening which make me laugh oh so hardily. Anyways, just find the group you belong in and stay there, I found it a while ago, the lame group which spends their time online playing MMOs and talking strategies for gaming over Skype.

My group: The losers, proud of it.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on August 09, 2010, 05:18:19 PM
Oh, but I wouldn't call that losers, my friend. You can only call yourself a loser if you die as a poor man, which hardly experienced anything in life. Right now, you are the future. Your group might be slacking off all the time, but don't think that will have bad effects on your future. See, most of the people spending most of their time playing MMO's, are usually the ones that can afford to do that instead of something else. You might not know it, but you are the smart ones.

And in here, it doesn't really work the way it does in America (or at least, the movies). There is no group of sports people, a group of geeks and a group of cheerleaders.

I belong to those which spend their time building new decks for MTG, and game all day long. And it's not because I'm so smart that I don't have to do anything else, it's just that I like it. I want to do this. Ok, in here you won't get a chick like that. But who needs them now? I'm 14 years old dammit, I got a whole life ahead of me. Let me play a card game, and let me game. And also, let me get a good job later. That's what really matters in this society, doesn't it? Not what you do at school (except for learning, that matters a lot), but what you do after it.

well that would be a gross over simplification of how it works in the US. sure there are clics and and all which can include one of jocks or whatever but there are a lot more specific groups out there.

i mean like the group i hung with in highschool was basically a group of people who gamed a lot but wouldnt think twice about heading out to a party where all of the more popular people would be
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on August 09, 2010, 05:23:55 PM
Hmm... No, I'm not really a party person. I love parties, but I usually organise them myself, and let the people in my group come only.

See, I don't invite others because all they do is insult me because I'm on a higher level than they are. See how that makes no sense? I don't know what's up with that either.

So, I only invite people I like, and I'm fine with that. Although there are almost no girls involved with that. But I already explained what I think of that.

Did anyone else there have the feeling at 14 years of age that he didn't have a home at all? Like, a place to come back or miss? It just crossed my mind that I have no troubles going anywhere for long periods, and that I don't call my house my 'home' a lot.

Umm, Toasty this is Chit Chat, there is no such thing as getting off topic. :laughing11:

Coryn's right, puberty for sure, I was an emo-like kid at 14, this coming from someone only two years older I feel like a total ass. :tongue: You'll find sitting in the rain isn't too good for your health and that it isn't fun when you get sick. I like sitting inside and thinking, though the side of rain outside my window makes me feel better, not cause I'm claiming to be deep, but this: It keeps the bugs and birds away.

Anyways, has anybody else been feeling a little out of energy lately or is it just me? Doesn't feel like I slump, just kind of bored, god I need a life.

Ouch, I still have a little while before school starts for me but maybe that could be what's got me down right now.

This year I took writing and something else for my choices.

Yeah, I too feel fully bored and tired sick. I often sleep until 1, 2 pm. Although that may be one of the many things that come with puberty.

The only thing I like about puberty (and especially the growing part) is that, besides growing itself, I get to eat a lot, and not get fat.

Bad: I feel tired, bored, lazy, ugly, and somehow, I feel I should hang out with people more. /Sigh.

dont be afraid to talk to people you've never had before. someone you end up sitting next to in class at random works well. thats how i met my best friend. had "known" him for 3 years. he ended up sitting next to me once and we went from there.

I only make chatting buddies out of people sitting next to me. I can basically tell who can be a good friend and who can't, it isn't too hard by telling build, sickly means friend, buff means walk away.

Well, my new class (end of August, when school starts again) will contain high amounts of NEW PEOPLE, so I'll try to make some friends there. Although I think that half of these people will be the people we talked about, since there isn't any real talent anymore, in this country.

I don't even consider it Canada most of the time...it's Newfoundland and I'm not proud to be here, we're the laughing stock of Canada, so imagine if the US actually knew of out existence.

You can't be a loner unless you have good relations with teachers in my school, the entire school is full so the only way to actually be a loner is leave the school for breaks and come back only for classes. Homeroom is torture when you have no friends in your homeroom class.

Yay for subs!

...Although I did watch it in English. L was very awesome...

Misa: "Let's catch Kira! I couldn't imagine a world without Light!"
L: "Yes, that would be dark."

And L and I have sooooo much in common, I mean, I loooove cake tooo!!! <Super fan scream

It's a pity he got killed so easily like that though. It made me hate Light for a moment.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on August 11, 2010, 12:33:48 PM
Btw people, let's not forget... UBER SPOILER ALERT!

I kinda hated him from when I knew who L was, knowing that Light was planning to kill him.

L was awesome.

still. deathnote goes beyond just psych and mystery. its a whole other beast entirely
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: matsurinoaoi on August 11, 2010, 12:47:50 PM
*I guess this is another SPOILER ALERT?*

I knew that L was going to die, but read the manga anyway. The first trick L used on Light, with Lind L. Taylor, was GENIUS. When L died, I had been neutral from the start of the manga, but I thought, "Light, I think I hate you now."

*END OF SPOILER*
Though I can't say that I hate Psych or Mystery.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on August 11, 2010, 12:52:57 PM
i cant say i ever hated light. even though until L died i wanted L to win. after L was dead though i had a "Kill 'em all Light" attitude

Post by: Tostificer on August 11, 2010, 06:50:24 PM
I must say, Light's move in the bus was also quite the smart thing. But not genius at all, since he used the power of the Death Note, which L didn't have. L was definately a better tactician than he was.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on August 12, 2010, 06:24:56 AM
It's a pity Light went to neither Heaven nor Hell... wait... i think he was spared the obvious outcome... the evil genius he turned into as soon as he got the death note.

*shudders.*
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on August 12, 2010, 01:34:36 PM
i dont think we became evil when he got the deathnote. he was just finally given his weapon
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on August 12, 2010, 01:39:02 PM
Still I consider the Death Note as cheating, when it comes to the tactics Light used. Not only was he able to manipulate people with the Death Note, but L didn't even know of its power. This statement proves how much smarter L was than Light.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on August 12, 2010, 01:43:08 PM

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

L was pretty  unusual. The only reason he (helped) crack the case was because he didn't doubt shiningami existence in any way.

I was walking down the streets, when I see some birds picking on the ground. And since manga is always in my head, I was thinking, and looking at the birds...

...When I realised how awesome it would be if I were able to just snap my fingers in the direction of the birds, causing them to combust. Man, I just love FMA.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Account Disabled on August 13, 2010, 05:04:08 PM
I would rather not have that power, if I could make things combust at the snap of my fingers hell would break loose and people would hide in fear, and I know that wouldn't be good...for the people.

If I had powers I would use them for my misconstrued selfish sense of justice, by using force to male people agree with my ideals. You know the same nonsense that follows around anyone who comes into power.

JK. I'd actually use them for my own benefit in a way that doesn't harm others, like lighting fires for entertainment, growing plants because I'm bored or just making it overcast outside my window so I can sleep an extra hour.
Though if I could choose it would just be flight so I could travel faster, and be really really suave.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Fnnenn Enninn on August 15, 2010, 04:21:17 PM
Jeez, I'm in lots of pain. My mother had a yard sale to sell the crap she hordes, so of course I got stuck running it for no payment. Had to deal with the annoying family down the road who hardly (or not at all) speak English yet try to communicate with me in Arabic and French. All I understand is the ridiculous prices they offer for things. I actually had to look up haggling theory for this yard sale, because last time we had one they stepped all over my mother and ended up with a load of merch for 20$ (which just invites them back for round two basically, since they can coax so much from my mother. They refuse to talk to me because I won't drop prices to their level).
I also had to lift 10-30kg cabinets and dressers down stairs to get them set up, since my mom can't lift more than a crate of books without panting and losing her breath.
So it all went good from there, except the trip I had to take to put of signs that my mother just made, even though we had already started the sale 30minutes ago. Then out of nowhere 15 to 3, everyone and their dog (literally, there were like 8 Greyhounds, I thought the races were in town) shows up to take a look. Fine, I don't mind extra time if I can sell things. Someone walks up and asks for a dresser, for 25$. Fair enough, I sold it. It was quite large though, so I ased how she was getting it to her house. She said she didn't have a car, and her son was at work so she would go put her dog back in is kennel, and come back to lift it a block on her own. I stepped up and said "No, let me do it then." So I walked a block, with a 25Kg dresser (not including drawers, of which I carried one). Not too bad, it weighed half as much as I do, but I wasn't just going to let the older lady carry it. Then I realized it was digging into my wrist reeeealy hard. Sure enough, after the 15 minute walk I looked at my wrist, which was bleeding, not heavily or anything but still bleeding with a gash along it. I hid my arm from the customer, received my payment (+5$ tip, whoooo...) and walked home. It's now 4, time to close up huh? Fine, after all that I had to bring everything back in, bar things that sold. Mom had a friend over, and their children offered to help me out, so it took a half hour this time.

Including set up time, I worked 9-4:30.
What did I make?
5 Bucks, a wound, my back problems acting up again, sore limbs and sunburn (also flirting with mom's friends daughter, :naughty:)

Dresser: 25$
Shelving units: 10$ each.
TV: 15$
My face with I crashed into the computer lifeless: Priceless.

There's somethings money can't buy, for everything else, there's back pain.
EDIT: After finishing this post I walked down for food. I was hunched over a little and mom noticed, "Oh dear, I don't like you hunched over like that. That's from sitting at that computer all the time."
Raeg levels increasing dramatically..................................

If you did all of the heavy lifting, yes, you should be payed somehow (yay for the old lady!)...But I've noticed that questioning parent's authority always gets me in a deeper hole. Hmmm...
I was hunched over a little and mom noticed, "Oh dear, I don't like you hunched over like that. That's from sitting at that computer all the time."
And I can't stand it (almost, that is, otherwise...llD) when parents say things like that...I would love to think of a witty metaphor for it at the moment, but my mind is blank...
Hopefully the pain'll be gone soon.

I always question their authority, it gets me nowhere meaning no bad or good comes from it. That's mostly cause I've made such a solid image of me being the lazy son who does nothing.

My dad blamed me being tired all the time on the computer, I told him, "Yep, that's right." He agreed and walked off.

Well, a mention is enough to make me gleeful. Though they may be talking about Newfoundland, (Ohio?) somewhere in the states has the name too.
Doubt it though, that's just a small town.

"Chesuwafu Meieru wa Fushisha no Kage ni Obie Sakuryaku o Meguraseru" (???????????????????????????)    October 11, 2007
In 1931 at a Newfoundland prison, Senator Beriam visits Huey Laforet in an attempt to stop the Lemure. Huey assures Beriam that Chane, his daughter, is aboard the train and is loyal to him. Huey telepathically contacts Chane, who knows about the plan to kill her. Meanwhile, Czeslaw attempts to bribe Ladd into killing the passengers. Instead, Ladd kills Czeslaw. In 1932, Gustavo learns about Eve's escape. Outside, Eve is rescued by Elean and learns the Gandor are connected to Dallas' disappearance. She immediately leaves for their headquarters. In 1930, Isaac and Miria are planning to rob the Gandor family. They see Dallas with the elixir and steal it from him. In 1932, Eve asks the Gandor about Dallas and are interrupted by Gustavo. On the Pussyfoot, Ladd finds Chane on the train's roof and attacks her. Nice and Nick are distracted by their fight and are captured by the Lemure. At the Gandor headquarters, Gustavo kills the Gandor brothers. However, they recover and beat him. In 1930, Isaac and Miria are disappointed that they supposedly stole alcohol and decide to rob the Martillo family. They visit the Martillo family speakeasy and are unaware Ennis is following them. At the back of the speakeasy, Isaac is nearly shot by the celebratory gunshot for Firo's inauguration. The pair are greeted by Firo and Maiza.

Ok people, today I found myself in the weirdest thing "of the year". (Yes, Pani Poni Dash reference! ><)

I entered a room with a radio on, and asked these people inside something I wanted to ask. But as I was about to leave the room, on the radio I heard just one phrase of the song.

"Evil Clowns."

I don't know wether I misunderstood it, but it was a very serious song which I know from the radio (don't recall the name right now). Is this my fate? Will I be killed by "Evil Clowns"?!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on August 23, 2010, 12:10:05 PM
yeah i dont see how hearing the words evil clowns on the radio translates to you will be killed by evil clowns.

Post by: Tostificer on August 23, 2010, 03:42:24 PM
I don't know. But I do know the purpose of that I heard it (I think). I came up with an idea. It's not that I want to go on with the idea, but an idea is an idea, and I can't ignore their temptation.

A man has been through so much sh*t, that he is depressed all the time and can't do anything but cry. But so many people around him laugh and smile all the time, and he can't stand that they're able to do so with all the bad things that happen in the world. He wants them not to smile anymore.
Ironically, he paints and clothes himself as a clown, and since making people not laugh is impossible, he just wants to kill everybody.

He is the Grin Reaper.

...

You get the word thing? GRIN reaper? With an N?! Hehehe.

remember what Mario always says! Toasters toast toast.

But yes, I guess I should. But now I know the second meaning of Baked, I wanna keep it like this. xD

That too, indeed. So with that I come to the conclusion that it stays like this.

at a glance its not confusing, but theres a lot of tunnels and small paths that only go to certain places... it kinda requires an intimate knowledge of the campus to get to weird class rooms effictivly

WOOOHOOO! AT LAAST!

Though, i realise artistic skill doesn't suddenly arrive... I think i'll be able to make a small manga!

But no ways i'm dumpin illustrator. I'll still use it when needed.


Send in moar sketches, toasty! My computer is all set up and ready to go artistic now. I'll be done with your sketch of Nozomi in 16 - 12 hours.


Oh, and here's my second attempt with the graphic tablet! (The first one was a disaster. Tried out in illustrator and couldn't keep anything sensible)

Are they the files you saved earlier using the trail version? Becuase if they are then that's why you can't use them.

Congrats on getting it, though. I'm lookign to get it too by using similar methods ;)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on September 23, 2010, 03:33:01 PM
Nah, I can't do anything with it at all. I think I'm going to try uninstalling and installing the new, free version, although I don't know if that works. I've tried a lot.

But the thing I now have can only start new images and save them, but I can't import any scans I made so it's very much useless to me.

hehe I disagree, sounds really interesting.
The renaissance is really influential, if I were you I'd say that art witnessed a revolution during that time and I think researching or writing about it is really worth it.
But that's me anyway.

well i really wouldnt say half of those people were new members. hell tzefa signed up almost a year ago now. LSD left after her dad died and i dont even recognize the name jessica so they probably werent active enough to remember in the first place. 
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Account Disabled on October 17, 2010, 06:24:00 PM
I vaguely remember Jessica...I think. Too many people come and go from MR. Tzefa is an older member than I am, as Coryn said for LSD, and I think AnimeABC just quit MR cause she didn't want to work on the Anthology. There were more members than that though, like 20 or so weren't there? Sarru, Senchi, and all those guys.

To make short...

no heat at school classroom: temperature between 9 and 13 degrees

mega tempest today with wind, thunder, rain...

which caused a flood coming from the cellarinside the said classroom

which would have transformed classroom in swimming pool if I  hadn't run for buckets...

which finally resulted in breaking the classroom cellar parts. which almost fell  on my head and nearly killed two of my children (had enough time to push them off)


T__________________________T

Did I said we were studying the English vocabulary related to the rooms of the house? We had seen the attic and kitchen...WE GOT A REAL LIFE SHOWER ON THE CLASSROOM!!!!

Add the lazyness of Comixpress which refuses to answer unless you get bunch of your friends  complaining on their facebook...who answers that they are busy because of lots of books being published each day (euuu 2 a day is a lot?), who don't have enough of 3 months to treat your book....
and you get THIS!!!

AN EXPLOSING MANGARAIDER ADMIN!

My aching body. That has got to be the worst bus ride anyone could experience i mean. wow. Boiling and cramping up on a small hard seat for 15 hours...

for a usually 8 hour long trip. It's bad enough if things go according to plan, but now, phew... i almost lost my mind.

Only thing is i got strange motivation to make an episode for my comic character where he's stuck on a demonic bus. I've made life five sketches already and the inspiration keeps coming.

But i still don't forgive that damn bus.

An inspection is a when your hierarchy controls every 3 years your teaching. It means that an inspector comes in your class, watches you teaching, controls and check up every damn school paper, every school book etc etc and gives you a note which will improve or not your salary. This '"spying" oo forgive me, observation is followed by a loooooonggg talk with the inspector during which he gives his impression , talk abt teaching technics, points every possible mistake and try to help u to improve.
It's a VERY stressing event.

NOW FREE FOR 3 YEARS!

I confirm some of them are famous for being real jerks. Those "inspections" are a very stresisng and tireful event. You come out of them completely emptied of any energy, often with huge headaches, and you can doubt of yourself and lose your self confidence very easily.
Happily all seems to have gone ok for me. I hope the report will be good too!

I hear ya lol
It took me some time to figure out nib pens and inking. My lines aren't that perfect yet but I'm getting there.
Things that suck are for example, smudges, "shivery" lines, too much ink and the like.

What calligraphy pens do you use? I saw some of them, and they didn't seem to work ( the ones with the cut nib)

legomastro: Good question....try to download their free trial version and test it!

I had a crazy moment today at school. I was correcting science tests. The test were about how to make shadows with lamps etc
The children had to explain why my 3 experiences failed.

I sure had strange answers in one of the copies.
"there isn't shadows because there won't be anymore shadows" yeaaaahhh sure!
"there isn't shadows because if there weren't the experience wouldn't have any meaning" oo really?
"there won't be any shadows because the experience isn't normal anymore." oo really?
"there isn't any shadows because the light and shadows aren't together anymore oo my, they broke up?

One of the children asked why I looked so desperate. T__T lol

Secondly lightning flashed like every 30 seconds, it was quite a light-show (oh yeah, the lights went out after loud bang. That was scary)

Thirdly i had the best series of dreams ever, and i'm soooo inspired. Everything seems so bright now *sniff* *sniff* my writers block has vanished!

So after voting for Monsterful, i tried to check what's all the way up there on the webcomics list.

# 3 is this comic. Two Kinds.

I looked at the pages, frowned as i noticed something, followed it around through links, was suprised at the great fandom, and that something kept bothering me, and that something was confirmed by two blazing reviews that confirmed my unease:

http://badwebcomics.wikidot.com/forum:recent-posts

http://www.projectafter.com/cr_twokinds.html


I fell off my chair laughing.

Haha, Being aesthetic doesn't mean i'm primitive.

I just can't seem to begin a story on the pc anymore. I usually draft in notebooks and whatnot but those get lost and it's a real pain writing. Basically i want the draft in neat stacks i can bind and hide away plus i won't get interrupted by the multitude of softwares and the annoying spell-check functions that just distract me.

and it just feels right.

Hehe, I can do everything at my school. You see, the computer people set up this thing that makes you unable to enter the configuration and other important stuff like the school's network. But since the computers run on Win98, and there's almost no disk space because there's so many users (a user for every teacher and student) on the network, you only have to find yourself a large wallpaper. If you try to save it, it will ask you if you want to make some disk space by clearing stuff, and if you click 'ok', you're in the network. From there you can edit everything, including making a shortcut to from your own personal files to the network, so you can get there any time you want. So recently, we downloaded an emulator and Zero Wing. It's freaking hard, but cool to do while at school.

cool. i dont know if the computers will delete bookmarks other people put up there. but i find it unlikely since this place isnt the most tech savy despite how they make themselves out to be.

Oh, and we also did this one thing where we made a .bat file with the command that he opened himself... Twice. Then we added the Internet Explorer logo to it, and we called it explorer.bat (original IE file is called iexplorer.exe). We placed it inside the network in pretty much every user there was, and now every time they wanted to start up internet explorer (or at least, what they thought was internet explorer), the .bat file ran its commands until the computer couldn't handle the amount of open windows anymore and crashed.

Man, configurating windows is funny. Next stop, delete system32.

Making of MGR Version 4.0
The new forum theme will be very dynamic and colorful. Hasith and me like its design and funny elements. Plus it's art related!
We will install a new smf version, which we are currently testing in our test/beta site.
We have agreed on some boards changes but still have to work on tornament stuff. T__T

It's not a battle of the art. I won't say more until the 31th december  :-X

I can tell you it has chocolate, grey pink, blue, green, white, grey....etc etc etc. Yes, I know, you wonder how it's possible. ^^

Colourful, dynamic, alive, I think it will be the best theme we've had so far.

No worry, we have several surprises in stock.

First, the new forum version, which will be realeased once we end testing it.

Then, don't forget that the Mangaraiders Tornament is a regular event...

For this April contest we ll be giving only the Wacom Pen Tablet. But for Anniversary contest which will be held in July there is will lot of prizes including another Wacom Pen Tablet.


I already have my bedroom full of gifts for the next tornament . We have been collecting those gifts for months now...
causing my bedroom to be worse than a manga anime goodies shop , as my mother often complains.

Cool stuff but just like the Gorillaz one it's really pointless in my opinion.
Concerts are for listening to LIVE music, to hear the true UNPLUGGED and REAL skill of different musicians. There's really no difference to hearing her songs on your computer.

But well if you're a vocaloid fan you'll enjoy it xD.

errm. there ARE real instruments if you look carefull xD then are behind the scene. and you can see em..
The only playback is the voice.

You may be right about the "pointless" fact , but to be honest, its a fan thing.

Being a fan is mostly about the essence of it, being as close to the possesion as possible, and just the aspect of having experienced it, to call yourself a "worthy" fan.

in the end, it isn't really more pointless then, say metallica concerts ^^

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Corycaly on January 12, 2011, 01:40:12 PM
It's really a fan concert: the characters seem really alive!

It's the same feeling you have when you see your favorite anime/manga character perfectly  cosplayed: a dream /illusion meeting reality. You know it's an illusion, but still it's great to dream for a moment.

I don't like Vocaloid voices at all, although I like the characters design, I wouldn't go to that concert but I can perfectly understand the fans enthusiasm. I'd be as hysteric if I had a Gundam Wing concert with this 3d technology.

And in an artikle i saw when i came across the video, i read that The miku softwares is soon getting an english update, which means she will be able to sing in english dialect.

They are planning a tour to germany, and they are attempting to make a show in dallas (i think it was)


Im not sure how they can profit to do this really ... i mean the Gorillaz tour had to stop because it was too expensive.

Hey, its brainbusting time!

1. Brainbuster:

3 men go to the grocery store to buy a bottle of wine. They buy a bottle of wine for 30 dollars and throw every 10 bucks when they left the store. The shopkeeper remembered the bottle only costs 25 dollars and send errand boy out with 5 dollars. The errand boy will retain 2 of the dollars and give the 3 men 1 dollar each back. They have now paid 9 dollars  each, representing 27 dollars total and the errand boy has 2 dollars:  27 +2 = 29 ... Where is the last dollar ...? :o

2. brainbuster

The impossible puzzle:

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Fallen Kite on January 17, 2011, 03:12:46 PM
Hm...
25/3= 8,33333333
8,33+(3/3) = 9,33
9,33*3 = 28
plus errand boy's money = 30

You're simply doing it wrong.

edit: Or more simple.
Since they would have paid 30 but it actually costs 25 they should get 5 back
The errand boy takes 2 which leaves them with 28

When I saw the poor girl with that grease hair two days  a row, I asked her what was going on. She explained and her mother confirmed that they had put sex lubricant/vaseline on her hair to make the lice disappear, claiming it's a very efficient solution.

Sure as hell it isn't a very clean solution...and not that efficient since the girl caught lice twice in 1 month and gave them to me this time.

Oh vaseline ^^- Wait what? How much have they bought of that stuff?  :confused:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on January 17, 2011, 08:55:36 PM
wait wait wait. vasoline isnt strictly a sex lubricant. now if the parents were throwing xyintense in there or something that would be a different story but yeah.

Post by: Tzefa on January 18, 2011, 02:08:40 AM
I think the only comment I can make on that is.... People are weird  :confused:
I they could be using the old general vaseline works on anything way of thinking since it used to be a cure-all for stuff like burns and cuts... Never heard of using it on lice tho
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Corycaly on January 18, 2011, 02:09:02 PM
The pharmacy doctor had never heard of that use and confirmed it couldn't destroy at all lice eggs.

Confirmation today at swimming pool: contrary to the parents who affirmed she didn't have lice anymore, we discovered , while helping her with the swimming hair protection, that her hair was full, more like INFESTED of lice. We had to wash and desinfect our hands several times.

DISGUSTING!!

What gets on my nerves is the parents attitude, who claim she doesn't have lice...refusing to treat her correctly...and getting all children and TEACHERS infested.

Post by: Corycaly on January 18, 2011, 02:21:52 PM
It's good to be persistent; when you persist in a logic intelligent idea, for example , parents persisting to check their children's homework .
 Persisting on using sex lubricant as anti lice is nothing but stupid when the girl caught lice 3 times in a month.

Post by: Corycaly on January 20, 2011, 02:10:00 AM
Coryn Sken: I have seen endless lice cases but this is the first case when parents are persistent about refusing to use a normal lice treatment. Usually parents rush to pharmacy hearing the word lice, hell, they immediately treat the children even if a lice case appears outside of the classroom.

Hasith: already done but no result!
Even told and showed it to the girls grandfathers....


You know what happens when parents refuse to treat their children lice? We can call social services against that family since it can be considered as child neglect. I bet having social services at their door would put some reason on their heads. :cop:

Let's be hopeful....the girl MIGHT have got a normal lice treatment yesterday.  :'(
I'll get the answer in 50 min...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Corycaly on January 20, 2011, 12:17:46 PM
Lice attack: episode 999!

Remember the story: a girl infested by lice, whose parents refuse to treat using something else than sex lube. Girl had infested class and teacher several time but parents kept claiming sex lube glory.

Last episode: despite the parents assurance that the girl was lice free, we had the joy to discover the contrary during the swimming pool class. Hard to proove the contrary when you end up having lice making synchronised swimming around her head. We thought those parents would follow my advice to use an "efficient product"....

Surprise today! The girls head was lube free...hope hope hope! I asked if the parents had bought a pharmacy product...
"MON DECIDED TO TRY SOAP!!!"
Of course....soap is a famous anti lice!!!!
Along with a word written by her parents CLAIMING SHE HAS NO LICE AND THAT ALL OTHER CHILDREN ARE RESPONSIBLE BUT HER DAUGHTER!!!


Coryn Sken: I don't know what are the social services organisation in your country. Here, when a parent refuse to give treatment to a child (lice, illness), it is considered as neglect. Of course, we don't contact social services at the first lice invasion, but only when we constat that a child has been infected for a long time and that parents have refused to treat them. Here it's been more than 1 month that the girl has lice and that parents refuse to treat them...causing the class and teachers to be infected several times. T___T

Hmm, I guess I wasn't right after all. There goes 10 bucks.

Anyhow, these people are crazy, really. I don't know who taught them that sex lubricant helps to get away lice, but they sure are persistent about it. Although now I think about it, putting that stuff in your hair might help you to NOT get lice. But yeah, she already has them.

Post by: Corycaly on January 22, 2011, 03:24:30 AM
Another crazy day at school...I think it will become a regular topic.

I've been attacked by another hysteric mother yesterday at classes's end....happily she didn't come to bows. :-X :confused:

Reason?
Her child had a tampthrum in german classes and I wrote a word for her parents saying they had to talk to her about it.
The mom came into my face yesterday, without introducing herself or saying hello... claiming euu sorry yelling ...
 that I had surely never learnt at school how to write a word and that my parents never taught me politeness rules since I had used a red pen.
She claimed that I had insulted her by beginning the word by "Mrs ,  Mr" , because she had no husband anymore.
Then she yelled that I didn't fulfill my role...

She was extremely violent with her words...thinking that it's very easy and normal to attack and impress a young teacher. Indeed, I'm very calm and posed... in my teacher's personnality.
BUT she didn't know that I was also a hot tempered bad ass nasty tomboy mangaraider. :devil:

Yesterday was the first time ever I let my natural side take over at school... maybe because she attacked my parents?
I ended  up cutting her at her every word, despite her protest and puting the truth in her face. WITHOUT YELLING I PRECISE (for once Hasitha may say)
I asked her if she was a teacher and had indeed any school rules knowledge...like red being the teachers color pen. :cop:

Reminded her I had no knowledge or desire to know her family story and that it was pure politeness. :laughing11:

Told her that I had punished the girl but that it's up to the PARENTS to give respect education to the children. :cop:

Told her that it's not my fault if she didn't know what means "talking to your child"

My ranting / explosion HAD her finnally agreeing that she was totally out of subject and that she had misunderstood the simple basic word I had put.

All this in front of my colleagues and other parents who were dumbfounded by that mother's attitude...


I must admit I was a bit schocked after this, took me a moment to calm down. A mix of anger, schock and hurt because I couldn't help but feel  like all my teaching efforts meant nothing.

Tell me, are school parents as crazy in other countries? Do they dare act like that in your place?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on January 22, 2011, 04:34:18 AM
Hehehe, no in my country, It's the students that can have a nice talk with the teachers. The parents usually don't dare to say a word.

Post by: h_musick on January 22, 2011, 10:32:43 AM

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tzefa on January 22, 2011, 12:18:44 PM
This reminds me alot of my years playing hockey, one player would be a ass or not listen and the coach would be like.... alright then sit out. Or in order to give players equal play time sit somebody in favor for another player and my god did the parents flip out 90% of the time they just couldn't believvvvvvvvvve that there son do anything of the sort, why hes the best player why pull him off the ice? there sons a gosh darn prodigy you should be building the entire team around his awesomeness and they cant believe how rude the coach is... And coaches dont take that very well when there trying to make sure the kids actually have fun, especially if its the father that approaches him about it

But now... NOW I'm SHAVED so I'm POSITIVE and full of OPTIMISM!!! To hell with the job! I didn't like it that much anyway. I just have to choose one of the following options:

1. Find new job and earn from 200-400 usd a month, change looks, get a girlfriend, stop being nerdy and Danish otaku-like, ???, profit!

2. Rely on art abilities and earn from 0-??? usd a month, grow full beard,  download lolicon p, read manga online otherwise redraw story to have it in book form, ???, profit?

 And it's incredible how good the '!'s look with the new theme (-_____-)

Tosticifer: Alcohol of course!
Na, I'm joking.
It's patience, lots of it, as said in my avatar id.
Geeting cold is pretty usual in my region since the weather is humid and cold, but having 23 children increases (a lot) the risk to catch it.
On a happier note, the hysteric parents of those last days seem to have calm down, even if the vaseline family still refuses to use anything else but sex lube as anti lice.

You learn to let go , with practice and huge yoga zen anti anger therapy. That doesn't mean I won't yell every day once I'm back home, I have still problems to let go of the job once back at home lol

Post by: Corycaly on January 31, 2011, 04:22:47 PM
The problem with having 23 young (10 years old) students, is that they are often ill and share their microbs generously.
 
The first year I was a teacher, I caught more illnesses than  my 10 previous years put together: colds, stomach aches, throats hurting, etc etc etc etc, every time some of my students were ill, I was too. T___T

Your body gets used to the microbs with time but you still catch them when you're more tired/exhausted than usually.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on January 31, 2011, 04:38:40 PM
So you're more tired/exhausted than usual? How come?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Corycaly on January 31, 2011, 04:51:04 PM
It always happen when holidays come near. The stress (school parents stories) and work (copies, preparation), and despair / anger/tiredness when your efforts aren't as good as the results usually do that.
Plus the children get tired too and tend to be more hysteric/nervous than usual, this tiring you more since you spend moreenergy trying to calm them down all the time.

Teachers is a fabulous job, especially with children who discover everything with you.
It's like sculpting a diamond, or better said, helping them to become a future adult.

Every job has bad sides: mine are stupid school parents, copies to correct and the usual microbs.
Good sides: a job for life, each day is completely different, you make memories every day. Plus the free wednesdays and week ends and big holidays....

Claiming I have no social life? Are you hidden under my bed to have such knowledge? lol

Tostificer, Teens social life is not same as an adults social life. For an Adult career is part of social life. There were you hang with work mates, deal with clients (in my case, students in Cory's case). You will understand this when you start working in a real full time job.

Sometimes I wish I would able to hang out with bunch of goonies or girls like in teen times. But when you pass age 20 and start developing a life time career social life meant something totally different.

Tosticifer: each age has its advantages and bad sides: chidren have innocence but lack of control, adults have control yet not innocence.

But still, You can be a serious teacher the day, and a manga/anime/cosplay addict the night. People I meet on manga conventions are always surprised when I announce I'm a 26 years old teacher. Same goes when school parents learn that I like drawing manga....who cares!

Okay... So, valentine's almost here and you all know the Japanese way of playing that game. This year... I really want a girl to give me chocolate! HOW DO YOU ASK A GIRL ABOUT SUCH A THING!!!
It's not like I like her that way, but we do spend enough time together in school so that she might think that I'm serious. And then you can't really ask someone directly about giving you chocolate. It'd ruin the fun too.
And whilst I'm typing this I realize that it's in the holidays.... And I'm going on vacation in Harzen.... fml
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on February 08, 2011, 05:20:08 PM
Hmm, I dunno Kite, how about you give her the chocolates? That's the way we do it over here.

If not, try to make her say the word chocolate, or relate chocolate to valentine's day and to you two very subtilly. And about the holiday thing, I have no idea how you're going to do that.

Valentine's day is stupid. If you really like someone, it's not like there should be a specific day to give them chocolates, and show the love right? It is, however, a good opportunity and stimulus for people like me, who wouldn't usually do that sort of thing.

if you give your loved one candy all the time they get fat.



oh yeah... show her what you are talking about online or just in conversation. she will take the hint most likely. don't come out and tell her to get you something, just hint... girls can get it most of the time. just make sure you let her know you find it very romantic. don't act like its dumb or something. good luck, and mabe it will be a late v day treat for you!

how DO you make them anyway? i mean do you just dip them in chocolate or do you have to get a special kind? O_o
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: SaiHawkeye on February 13, 2011, 01:58:19 PM
You can use normal choclate but to make it crispy, you have to do some special techniques to the chocolate. You can usually find the chocolate dip for strawberries right next to the strawberries. This dip is a special kind of chocolate that gives a candybar crunch which is amazing. You can also add crushed almonds or coconut shreds to make the strawberries better.

I generally use the chocolate shell and mix it with other ingredients like white chocolate and milk chocolate, put it into a ziplock bag, and draw zigzags on the normal chocolate shells to add patterns.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: SaiHawkeye on February 13, 2011, 02:49:52 PM
No, your hair should be dry. Don't blow dry it though otherwise your hair will be damaged.

The heat setting depends on your hair. The thicker it is, the higher the temperature should be but you should start off at a medium-low heat and see how it works from there.

Lego here. Sad and sobbing because he's been inactive.

I am tied up pretty badly, (Spell of binding: over 9000) but as soon as i break free I have a new manga plot and the beta page for that magazine. (Yes, its sitting on my PC all ready and way past due.)

So what's been going on? (Too lazy to check around.)

Anyhoo gotta get back to dem books, the sudden darkness around Malawi keeps reminding me Math exam is around hte corner (Nah, don't worry, Malawi is as hot as hot can be.)

Oh! one more thing. Students and Lecturers here are on strike so things were and are crazy. The studen'ts strike managed to reach town and they broke into some places. Meanwhile two kilometres away other demonstrating students broke into a nearby bar and stole all the alcohol. Trying to show their displeasure, i imagine.

The Lecturer's strike was more peaceful, but classes have dropped into the trash so i have plenty of time to study at least for the exams. No, i hope they aren't cancelled, because if they are i'm dead for the next half of the semester.

Sorry for the novel post, i just miss this place.

Lego out! (Okay obviously i'll need to check any possible replies but you get what i mean. AARRGH, college has made me so analytical. I dnt evn knw hw 2 wrte in shrt frm anymr.)

20 km from my home, I stopped the car because a car crash had just happened. A car had ended beside the road, on a gap, turned upside down. The car was totally destroyed!I , (along with several people) went to help since I had a formation. We had some luck because a nurse stopped too.

The driver was lucky, she wasn't wounded, just went into shock. We called the emergency services which came quickly and were patient and gentle.
I hope the driver will be well soon!

The driver wasn't wounded, she just went into shock but  didn't collapse. She felt some pain in her neck but tha's expected with the car crash. She was taken care of by the emergency crew which were ultra gentle and patient. She should spend the night in the hospital to take care of the shock and to check for any possible injury.

That was a adrenalin rush for me but I'm really glad the driver is ok because it could have been much more dramatic:
. The car stopped 2 meters from a electricity pylon
. the whole back of the car was crushed , happily she didn't have any passenger
. there used to be huge trees in the side of the road but they have been recently cut off

Caitlin Glass get a huge round of applause at the end and deservedly so... She sung that song so beautifully and flawlessly considering its a song in a foreign language

anyways heres the link...  if you haven't seen this anime check it out! its a classic..  http://www.youtube.com/show?p=Y0qkeohzWZk&s=1

Yeah sai Maya is a demon. But every time i look at that golden motorcycle  (I use 2009) and the things people do with it i keep getting back up to deal with it. What model are you working on? Any place i can see them? Deviantart, maybe?


In any case i've gotten a new craze: PEN art! I'm so addicted to it right now i've started burning through my bics.

And I can think Nihei Tsutomu for this, i'm addicted to his art right now. It's so sketchy yet detailed. I'll have something to post at last.

I haven't posted any of my current 3D art because it doesn't work like it should in the Unity game engine. Many of the quads get converted into triangles incorrectly and when I build it up from triangles, it still doesn't work. I'm having a hell of a time scratching my head on this one.

I'm going through a list of tutorials again right now but they're all in Swedish. Hopefully I'll have a better understanding of what's going on after all of this.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: SaiHawkeye on March 31, 2011, 01:27:05 AM
Man, today was full of bullcrap. xD

I started off the day with a normal class. Then I went into my family's restaurant to show my dad how to do something and he had me sit next to him for no reason for 3 hours.

Then when I got home, I washed my car. My dad got home after I had just fully detailed my car and he told me to wash both of his cars...

After that I headed to my room and took a nap.

Woke up thinking "Hey! I'll try working on my game models!" Blender crashed a script that affected my model and then autosaved. I lost all work to that point. I then figured "Might as well try Maya." Maya runs out of RAM and forces a shut down. FFFUUU. I then go back to Blender thinking it would be faster since I'm more familiar with it. My computer shuts down just as I finish the head... =_=

I take a break and go to McDonalds. Then I set down at the computer and find out one of my childhood friends is taking classes for game design. Had a great time talking to her. Felt motivated again and loaded up my 3D program. My mouse batteries died... I had to wait 30 minutes for them to charge up. I get started, get pretty far with the head and look at the clock. 12:10 AM... Woooow.

Imma upload some soon, good idea. And the story, well... When I was gonna write it I was kinda busy, and now Minecraft has taken over my life again. Perhaps I'll write something when inspiration strikes. Which is definitely not now, I'm having some sort of long-term writing block here.

Dear Journal

If all goes well today I shall see that much of my hard work has paid off.

My drawing for Lord Syafiq's competition has been done for roughly a week now and I can't wait to submit it once I get home from work tonight. Who shall be brave enough to sacrifice their lives for the great Mechanized Loli Corps?

The greatest of my achievements comes with my mastery of the 3D graphics software Blender. My prior attempts to wield its power had resulted in some rather... tragic events, let's say. Soon I shall be able to reveal the face of the girl Misaki who shall play the lead role in my upcoming game currently entitled Guardian Deity.


Everything is looking well today.

I couldn't figure out a domain name so I just used my alias. http://saihawkeye.com

There isn't anything on there yet because I have to figure out how to use the content management system.

I might also possibly make my whole website through HTML and just use joomla for my blog. Not sure yet...

Today when I turned in my final web publishing project (a cartoon network site redesign) something funny happened.

Once my teacher saw regular show characters on the page design she started saying "Ohhhhh~!" and talking about how much she loves the show! I started laughing and we both said Yay-oh! And agreed on how awesome the show is xD.

Ohhhh and Yay-oh are phrases from the show by the way.

It gets better lol, my site design got chosen as the class favorite so I won a chocolate bar xD, the funny part is that when she came to give me the bar she said:

"Here's your prize Pablo, nice job! Ohhh~!"

Then I  answered with an Ohhh~ too and then we both said Yay-oh! It was awesome xD

I went to the doctor yesterday. T_______________________T

I began to feel pain in my right hand one month ago. Thinking it was school papers corrections , I didn't give to much attention to it. I believed it was nothing holidays couldn't cure.
But the pain went up to the point I couldn't use my right hand without feeling more and more pain. Holding a fork, using a pc mouse or writing became impossible.  :push:

The doctor confirmed my impressions: I have overused my right hand with papers corrections, drawing and pc use: the radius bone, ligaments etc are hurt. :cop:
Result: I have a treatment and orders to take it easy with my hand, meaning  less pc  /drawings for a moment.

Consequences: Typing using left hand is possible but fixing the MGR anthologies files like that is NOT .

I need one or several volunteers to check/fix all MGR anthology files using Gimp or Photoshop.
:revolver: :shotgun:
It is a simple but repetitive task which consists in verifying that each page corresponds to the printers settings.

PM me and post here if you can help:

In other news yesterday i was coming back from my cousins wedding and the coaster i was in got into an accident. One second i was looking at my phone and the next the whole thing was floating and rattling and roaring loudly. Dust covered the entire bus and i was calmly thinking what the end result would be.

The bus tipped to the right and i was pretty much prepared for a sudden crash when it rapidly decelerated and skid to the right.

I got out of the bus without talking and looked on as people crowed out of the bus. The women praising God and stuff.

It was pretty strange how i got out of it unscathed. The bus skipped over a ditch by breaking a tree, then bouncing over this log to cross the ditch (it's left tire) All this wile avoiding two brick pillars hidding amongst shrubbery.

Too strange an experience to exactly describe. I do know that i don't wanna repeat that again. Phew!

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: TsukiokaLoli on August 08, 2011, 05:11:42 PM
I have a varied type, but I like guys by:
Appearence-wise: Long dark hair, or blonde wavy hair (Cant be preppy lol), I lean towards a dark or outgoing clothes style lol.
Personality: Nice to me, Confident, smart, good at fighting, likes stuff like I do, lol.

Everyone says that the guys I distinguish to be "hot" aren't as hot as I say. lol. xD

Ahaha, for me the good guy is the "geek chic" type, I feel for boys with glasses and I want them to be intelligent, the rest doesn't matter, as you say some boys attract me and they're not the common hot type ;)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on August 08, 2011, 05:17:53 PM
Well you know, the geeky people tend to have too much confidence, or rather ego, about their intelligence, and they´ll brag about anything they know. Sounds annoying to me. Plus, I´m not really that much of a fan of glasses (even though I occasionally wear some myself).

But ya know. I´m a guy. If she has boobs, she´s in.

Post by: Tostificer on August 08, 2011, 05:44:12 PM
Lolis and lolicons are the same thing 0_0

Lolicon derives from Lolilta Complex, meaning the liking of flat-chested, usually small and childish girls. Not to be confused with pedofilia.

The name lolicon is given to every girl who matches this description. Loli is just a shorter way of saying lolicon.

yeh haha. i think it be fun to have some sorta mr party where we can all meet each other hehe itd be cool

Problem is, that a lot of people on MR live in the states. Closest we can get so far is a massive skype conference call, but time zones etc. impede this too, pretty much.

I´ve always said it, but time zones are freaky things.

For me those two are different: a lolicon is a person who suffers from the lolita complex, who loves young girls etc.
Aaaaand lolis are the under-age girls  :push:

Then, for the massive conversation, what about an irc channel? better than skype I think.

But again it's all about character. fx there was this girl I was friend with (until I and her logic but mostly me screwed up our friendship) whom I thought had no boobs until one day I noticed that she did have boobs. And for some reason it disappointed me o_o

Did I mention the large amounts of snow in this country, closely followed by a cup of hot chocolate, or better, a cup of good Italian coffee? Man, I love the winter.

Edit:
Sadly today is nowhere near my birthday. Curse you, december! Why must your wintery goodness come so late?!
Damn, I'm a December child too! Btw... you're going to be 16 then... pf...pfahahahahaha. At that time I'd be old enough to be your dad xDDD
edit: I'd instead of I'll

You´re not my dad, you´re my bro. But seriously, how old are you?

Double edit (ffs people!):
Now that I'm 18 (legal majority age in France) I don't care about a thing  8)

You so lucky. Enjoy your adolescense.

ah I know exactly how you feel. About 2 years ago my knees started hurting and it moved up my legs into by back and neck. I forget what the doctors call it, but its something progressive, and I can't do much acrobatic stuff without slight or intense pain. I do anyway though lol.

so my daily tarot starts like this: The Fool card affirms that my alter ego today is a Quantam Leaper with a hero's heart,  My superpower is liberated by free will and trust, which lead me to explore simple speculations for their own sake. I can move beyond the fear factor. I don't know where I'm going, and I don't care where I've been. I only know that, as the hero of my own story, it's for me to find out.

there is no reason to bring decimals into people's daily lives. i mean honestly. if someone asks you how hot you think it is would you rather say 76 or 38.5? no idea if that really is the right conversion but the point is made.

also about the chit chat topic mess up in the music section. sometimes if you're posting a reply and you have connection issues or some such and have to reload teh page it will stick you on a post new topic page. so just be wary about that.

Yeah I thought of something like that. Wish i could do that. The artist's comic is way too... punk for me to handle though, so i leave it at that.

Spent the whole of last night brainstorming on starting a one shot comic. It was one of the most frustrating time of my life. Seriously annoying how i shoot down all my ideas. Fortunately though, i began brainstorming by writing my thoughts... like coryn does. That worked out well. Ended up writing a flash fiction and beginning a plot that i felt was so major i couldn't write it haphazardly...

Ugh but i wish i stopped shooting myself down

I remember reading this article about "How to subdue your inner critic", it was talking about how much we tend to hate our own work and turn ourselves down, getting past that and avoiding art blocks.

It was on a design site but I can't really remember the name of the site.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on October 07, 2011, 02:27:20 PM
Yeah exactly! I unno what it is. They have what it takes but it all gets messed up. Maybe some of the movie makers who get involved when they bring the idea? Something legal going in the way of story? I don't know, it's pretty weird.

Maybe we should look towards how batman did things. Apart from making a notable movie they've made a kickass game, which isn't a piece of cake for a superhero thing.

I'd so watch an Uncharted movie, if they could do it well.

As an excuse for playing inverted they say that if you've been playing Goldeneye 007 on the N64, you're the pro or something. Because inverted was the default. Well I've played that game and I hated the controls. =_=

some dude got shot during the ps3 release. knocking off a van full of games isn't that big of a deal in retrospect though. i mean at that point its not like they're probably stealing for themselves they're stealing to sell them and make money. same thing happens with anything really.

Wonderfully, prepare to GRIND for items, yes I just said that, GRINDING IN A ZELDA GAME.

Never in Zelda have Rupees been more required, cuz not only you need tons of items but you also have a LIMIT on how many you can carry, you have an ITEM BANK, for crying out loud.

And bottles? You're gonna need em, and you found so many that even before the second temple you already have like 4, yes 4, and you have only played for like 4 hrs.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Post by: Monsterful on November 26, 2011, 04:34:45 PM
I haven't gotten that far, my sis may get there though, she's playing more than me since she has the time.

However since they have a green potion (not yet for sale on our files) I suppose that there's indeed magic.

And the butter's getting hard.

What a splendid pie,
Pizza-pizza pie,
Every minute, every second,
Buy, buy, buy, buy, buy,
What a splendid pie,
Pizza-pizza pie,
Every minute, every second,
Buy, buy, buy, buy, buy"

Has any of you Zelda fans heard the 25th Anniversary Orchestra CD yet?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKhLkgqEFZM&feature=related

So glad it came with my copy of the game, it brought me to tears when I heard the entire CD in a seating, it's powerful stuff. 25 Years and still strong! Let's keep going for another 25 more!

RRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOBBBBBBBBBB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

COME BACK!!!!!!!!!!

Sai's being absent, kite may or may not have given up on life, doodle is doing college.

i'm still here. doing my thing.


and for the record i was always a ninja  :ninja:

I've seen Sai online (PS3) playing some matches on MW3 a few times but, that's about it.

Oh that's right! Doodles all grown up now isn't she? I remember when her parents didn't want us to call her by her real name on the forum lol. Well good luck to her with all her future endeavors! Good Luck Doodles! Make us proud girl!  :clapping:

And what's this about Kite you say? Given up on life?!?! wth?? What happen to the fun loving, not a care in the world, silly goofball kid that I knew? Kite is definitely one of the main reasons I came back to MR. This is very sad to hear. Hope he is doing okay though, regardless of what type of issues in life he may be facing at the moment. Take care Kite and God bless you buddy. We miss your shenanigans!  :sadbye:

@Coryn: If you have any more detailed info on Kite, could you please enlighten me and PM me the details. That would be great thanks Bro.

What is it about humans and feeling better at another's misfortune?

@ Monster yeah exactly! But not quite yet, if you followed the whole year was screwed up so breaks are cut short. We'll only have one week break. The week after the next.  After that it's back to the doghouse again. Don't know if i'll even travel this xmas...

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Corycaly on December 19, 2011, 02:00:46 PM
Dear Mangaraiders,
Due to medical circonstances, I will not be able to take part on the anthology, either by producing art or formatting the book.

The reason is simple: I have been suffering for months of pains in the right hand, which now concern my left hand as well. Those pains have kept me away from the forum for weeks in last July. A treatment calmed those pains but they have came back recently.

The pains now go from the elbow to the hand and are nearly permanent. Added to back problems, it became  necessary to reduce both my forum and artistic activity. Recent neurologic exams put in evidence a "cubital nerve problem", meaning my nerves are blocked in both elbows. The back problems seem to be a direct consequence of this nerve problem.

In several weeks, I will have to go through two chirurgical operations to fix this elbow nerve problem. I don't know yet when the operation will take place or the time needed to fully heal so we have to find solutions for the anthology.

1. We change the date and add several weeks or months to make it.
2. One or several volunteers take care of putting the anthology together.

Feel free to comment to give your advice or suggest solutions!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on December 19, 2011, 02:13:32 PM
So sorry to hear that Cory, i send you my best wishes.

I'd jump in to volunteer but right now exams are coming up and i'll only have a week break (of studying) before school becomes even more hectic. I'm barely holding on as is... I could go through texts and stuff but right now i'm so swamped i can't even volunteer... i don't know about the others.

I'd say we go with option 1. Perhaps because of the delay we'll add more to it and make it a bigger release than norm?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on December 19, 2011, 04:21:34 PM
I hope you get better soon Cory, be strong throughout those operations! Keep us updated if you can.

Anyhow, I'd go for two, but you all know how I am with deadlines and keeping up with things, so I say we delay it. It can't be helped methinks, we need you for this Cory.

Good luck Co! That's really *censored*ty what's going on. But with any luck you'll be able to get it fixed!

and yeh. like many of the others. I have no idea how i'd be able to actually pull together something like the anthology. and even though i'm out on break time is still constantly an issue. so i vote for the delay. and hopefully it will give any prospective entrees the time to polish their work to its best.

Happily, I have two weeks of holidays. Enough time to fit all my medical exams!
Today: back, shoulders and ankles radios!

I still have to translate the report full of strange words. They say my back and ankle pains don't come from the bones...but who knows with those dummies? I don't put too much confidence into doctors who think I go through exams for fun.
Let's hope my usual doctor will be more helpful!

I am a level 14 redguard who mainly specializes in one handed weapons and light armor. Just putting that out there. I would spend more time on the game but Ultimate marvel vs capcom 3 has been keeping me up all night lately.

so I get a call today that someone I had already filed for did not realize the bank account she gave me to deposit her return in has been closed since November... I told her okay i'll have to possibly file an amendment form and it may take you 2-3 months to get your return now. And the amount of complaining I got for something that was obviously her fault makes me want to seriously never do this work again  :( people like that aggravate me.

hoping my own will be in by the 8th unlike my client I tend to make sure my bank account is active.

We made it just in time this morning (I had never changed my last name after eddie and i "got hitched" tow years ago!)
Yester day we went to fix things up at the bank, they sent us to DPS to get my name changed we would have had just enough time but a man in a minivan pulled out in frount of us and then just kept on going across the road! He went over the curb crossed two parking lot exits and then hit a big sign.  :push: we pulled over and when i got up to the van i could see him inside.at first i thought he was having a heartattack or something... pulled him out, he fell on top of me when i tried to get him out (ow!) i think i did everything wrong! but he was chokin and anyway... in the end he spit out a bunch of little ment looking stuff... im still not sure what happened he could not talk very well after that... CRAZY! :push:

but today we got it all taken care of... i hope you can get your refund back SOON

Even though I wasn't really a big fan of the franchise Star wars has proven to be an interesting mmo not sure how I got so wrapped up in this game though guess running around slashing things with a light saber can be addicting   ;D

she's refering to The Old Republic. which may be the greatest game to ever come out of bioware. though my computer is crap and i'm broke so i won't be getting anywhere near to it any time soon. it's disapointing really. the game i've been waiting for since 2003 (or 2005 i guess since 2 came out that year) is so far out of my grasp it isn't even slightly humerous.

Professions go till lvl 100. But you know, there's like... Countless professions. At least ten collecting ones, like miner and farmer, and even more processing ones, like baker, jewler... Hell, even shoemaker! And then there's a profession for making each type of weapon... Which would be swords, daggers, bows, hammers, axes, shovels, wands... I might be forgetting some though.

Yeah, talk about no-life.

Whew have to wait till after my son gets home help him with his homework then I am back onto STWOR not going to give away spoilers but the game is fun I havent had this much fun in an mmo in years. Being a newb getting lost in big cities, now on other planets (have to get my sense of direction from my mom  :blush: ) and I am still smiling most of the time.  Its been a real blast though.

Sorry was in a game induced haze the last 2 days and I have both though right now leveling a Jedi sage she is at 26 and is a blast to play.  My sith is sitting at level 6 and now that I know a few more things about playing probably going to re do her up and play the dark side of things once I get my sage to cap. So far the game is so enriching that its hard to want to take breaks though I have to lol.

So being a part of an mmo pod cast group means testing out games so I can talk about them but I think my poor computer may cry uncle soon. Now the guys and I are going to be testing Mortal Online since its running a free trial for 2 weeks hoping its going to be fun waiting for the patches to download though I really rather be running my swtor game got my sage to 35 and been having fun knee deep in republic political dealings.  Plus im trying to raise my ranks in archeology (this game freaking hits all my nerdy pleasure points lol).  But I am going to give MO a shot and hopefully do a fun cast with my fellow smacktalkers about it.

Tax season is really sucky this year with all the delays I am being treated like its my fault I think this is the last year for me doing this kinda freelance work. Heck I still haven't even gotten my own return yet all I can do is wait dealing with the IRS for over 10 years know I know its frustrating and people want someone to blame and unfortunately I am that person if I helped them :/

On a good note at least my kid is enjoying his school break hes off from yesterday till Tuesday and loves that when he gets up in the morning he's not getting ready for school. Tuesday morning is going to be a battle I know it  :push:

That's the ultimate truth of the universe, one that exists as one of the dimensions apart from time and space. It has existed since the beginning of time (Well, the internet.)

so my first impressions of Mortal online is not good I don't like the graphics on it the character creation made me go meh to I may like to kill things and craft but I like to look pretty while doing it lol its a vanity thing.  I like making characters its over 60% of the gaming process for me and the game just doesnt do it for me.  Tosti im going to have to check your game out I love trying new stuff and it gives me topics to blather on about.

Here is my Jedi sage Kamari she hit 38 and I am loving the republic side though I will be playing the dark side once I cap this girl:

(http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t116/tyn616/kamari2.jpg)

once I figure out how to not die during such i'll try to take some screen-caps of her fighting lol. Now that shes doing higher level quests pausing to try to capture her in battle mode can mean insta death, those siths are nasty mofo's lol

so. Dante Basco, who you guys most likely know as the voice actor of Zuko from the last air bender, is now a homestuck reader. More than that. He finished the whole thing in like three days and has officially realized just how ass over head into the fandom he is.

wonder how he reacted to the panel of the author kissing his dead corpse a few acts back....

And MR spoke to Hmusick and said "You shall pay for your absence!" The ground shook and the beast rose out of the sea and Hmusick looked with fear and trembling. Lo! The beast was said post monster and the whole world shook with great fear because of the beast.

Definitely going to have to have a new career path after this years abysmal tax season :( had me down people still not getting their money. I am still waiting on my own federal been had my state. Dunno whats going on I am not being investigated so its just the IRS taking their time. Which for many people is really unfortunate.  I am for them finding frauds and stuff but at the expense of legitimate claims really does blow. I hope they get their systems together for next year but I think I am done with this business.  Currently working on the next update to 3 little witches and Low Down Dirty though Im excited because I contacted someone looking for a writer on here restructured my story for them and they are currently working on it. I wont give too much away till they are ready but the sketches they sent me are amazing, it has picked my spirits up (which were sinking low due to work) and I may have a full story illustrated soon.

Now to go read messages and see what I can catch up on post wise. Finished the new bleach chapter to save my thoughts for that for the official topic.

Life is always a hussle. As always the significance of the 'tax season' and claims and what not sails over my head, but hang in there.

It's always great to get some uplift from writing. Boy do i know it. I should really read your story immidiately! And there was something i was wondering if you could help me in...

I'd love to see those sketches btw, and i'm reading the chapter now.

sorry... off topic! but y'all are my closest friends! lol  :blush:
Ok so! when someone is talking to you for the first time about a (mental) problem why on earth would you say: "Oh, you don't "have" that! I guess I just see another side of you that YOU don't see." WHY!? I mean really... I am not going to shout out, "HEY EVERYONE!!! I AM FEELING RATHER __________ RIGHT NOW!!!!" That's just not how REAL people are. LOL! I not going to go around telling a bunch of people what's going on with me! ALSO!!! Having something wrong with your head is really not much diff than having something wrong with your thyroid! Your brain is a part of your body too!!! Sometimes things don't work as they should just like any other organ (Spelling!?). And right... this is NOT me getting tricked by the devil by the way! (as I have heard many Christians say my whole life) Things happen to good and bad people. Judgment comes later... anyway... sorry for this rant... but like i said i needed to tell someone... even if there was no responce
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Robs_ugly_artwork on March 07, 2012, 09:18:54 PM
Nice rant Musick! I enjoyed reading that but, I think I would've enjoyed it even more, if I could understand exactly what was going on (I could catch on to some of it though) :-\ .. Unfortunately, I can't agree or disagree with your latest rant b/c of this. I'm sorry.. I'm not very helpful, I know.  :(

I can't give you any sound advice at the moment but, I can give you this cute lil' red heart instead! --->  :heart:  *hugs*
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: h_musick on March 07, 2012, 10:54:17 PM
Thanks Rob. That's good enough for me. At least you read it, and it's the same as someone listning, so thank you! 
OH!! and please! here is some more! but i don't think it's really worth the read!! The next 50,000 words are VERY selfish blahblahblah's...

As some of you guys might notice I have a hard time staying on task and compleating a project, well I thought it was normal and normal to be depressed for years have anxiety attacks and not be able to remember even the last thing I heard (even though I wanted to and I repeated it to myself to try to remember!) But as soon as I reach for the paper...POOF! gone. I thought it was some subconcious thing that I just needed to dig down and "fix" but nothing has worked! So while looking up some stuff online I found a bunch of stuff on add/adhd, all of the symtoms fit...like an ****ing key. It's wierd. Even the childhood add/adhd matches what I felt as a kid. I read on one article that it could be in the genes, my mom has been struggling with SOMETHING that fits pretty good too. I might be wrong, butmy point was.... if someone is opening up to you about something this personal(at least it is for me...) Why would you go on and on and ON about how I never seemed like I had anything "wrong" with me? How would they know what I feel, how I fight through every day just doing what I need to do to get by? (dishes, laundry....making lunch!) It is a fight like I said! Everytime I look up I see thatr ince again I got "distracted" from what I NEEDED to do. Getting caught up in something that is not important.

Today I met another mom at the park, while we were talking I started thinking about something else and she asked me a question... I did'nt know what she asked! I did'nt even remember what I was thinking about! I felt myself blush and acted like I just could not hear her.

The only way I can describe what it feels like it a cobweb. Like a spider spun a web inside my brain, the kind that has the big fluffy webs... Also static. you know when you turn your radio on and you hear all that white noise?

Anyway!!I know that this is not something most people would care about. like I said it's really selfish to post something like this THIS long.And I know this is WAYYYYY too personal!! But like I said The people I have tryed to talk about it to suddenly think Im a hypochondriac. This is family by the way! Im so happy that I kept my depression a secret when I was a kid, you know?
Ah!!! I could have been writing my workshop! LOL!!
 
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on March 08, 2012, 08:19:05 AM
I've actually had that problem lately and it's almost shocking how most of the process you went trhough fits with mine, i went hounding internet links and telling people how really, it's not stress, there's something bigger than me having too much on my plate (keep on forgetting stuff, losing stuff in ridiculous ways, i mean really i'm not that dumb.) but there'd be sceptical looks and that's the end of the story.

To an extent you shouldn't blame other people though, mostly they just want to comfort you, especially when family is concerned.
I haven't found the courage to do it yet, but i'll go get a real medical checkup and get it scientifically confirmed rather than let it torture me any longer. You should consider asking your parents or something, but if that's too awkward or they don't take you seriously get it done yourself. As soon as possible.

Contrary to movies and series and what-not its surprisingly hard to get family to listen to 'deeper' problems like how your feeling and problems your having in life. Well, for me that is. Usually the topics revolve around the 'safe zone' of how is your day, what do you want to do when you grow up, hey have you got a girlfriend etc. etc. Well, yeah...

Just my two cents >.>
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: h_musick on March 08, 2012, 10:35:15 AM
oh yeah! it's always been hard for me to "connect" with my family. so I know how you feel. And your right they might just be trying to say "its gonna be ok" But still, denying there is a problen is not the way to go.
And lol... I don't have to talk to my perents about going to the Dr... But it would be nice to have some support about it. Though I would only go to see if this really was that.

Post by: Robs_ugly_artwork on March 09, 2012, 12:55:29 AM
Ah, yes thank you for sharing and explaining yourself a lil' further with this subject Musick. (even if you didn't have too) I fully understand what you were trying to say now.

I for one understand how it feels about opening up to family members about personal issues/problems. (As I'm not really close to any of my family members actually)

Anyways, as for the add/adhd thing, I can't speak from personal experience but, one of my best Bud's kids has been diagnosed with having this "disorder" (I apologize for using this word) So I guess it really isn't all that uncommon actually (not that you said it was). Anyways, they're are a few medications that you can take to help deal with the distractions and loss in focus issues that you are facing, even mood swings and depression issues as well. My friend's son takes those pills and it's like night and day. He's the best student, best son, happiest kid in the world when he's on it.

So with that said i would recommend making an appointment with your personal Doc. and see how he can help you out, regardless of what anyone says. I mean nobody knows you better than yourself.

Oh and one more thing. The boy's father has the same thing but, just in a minor form, so to speak. (meaning: not as bad) So I would agree with you, that it can be in the genes. So maybe you should take your kid(s) to the Doc also to get checked out as well? Just a suggestion of course.

Anyways, sorry for the rant and I'm glad that you used MR to vent, instead of snapping at your loved ones or something of that nature (that could've turned out bad).

Well talk to yah laters and take care Musick!  :heart: *Big hug!*
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: h_musick on March 09, 2012, 01:30:24 AM
lol thanks rob, And yeah I sometimes I wonder about my son. He does the same stuff I did as a kid. It's like he is on speed first of all (though this might be that boy are 40% more active than girls thing) But it's like he can't hear me! And when he does it is two seconds and he forgot already(but then again it could just be that hes a kid right?). But I guess that's ok cause most of the time I do too... HEh, heh, heh...
LOL
Thanks for reading! Id hate to lose my family, even if they drive me crazy and hurt me sometimes, I guess you just have to "love on" anyone who will letcha, right?. you know what i mean

hehe no worries at 5'3 most refer to me as short person specially since im one of the few in my family men and women included so short.  I can hold stuff down now so thats a plus still congested but feel a lot better then I did the past few days.  My son has been home all week doesnt go back till Monday if the doctor clears it. We had a nasty bug but meds and rest has helped it.  I just can't wait to get cracking at writing again being sick really did suck all the energy out of me.

On the plus side friend of mine got me some walking dead comics so was reading those enjoy the show to but the books are a whole different level I told him though getting me those books while I am fighting such a nasty cold is mean lol last thing my crazy butt needs is to think my flu can start the zombie apocalypse :) I am rambling now got a lot of catching up to do.

So I decided gonna take my time with writing till my son is out of school for the summer in 5 weeks.  Then I can really devote more into the stories (and I have a lot of good plot ideas ive been writing down for them to) Its just with him in school, me in the PTA trying to earn money doing taxes (which really sucked this year) ive been taking on a lot of extra stuff that makes me really weary.  Still havent even put out a new podcast got a message that its been a month since my last show lol. I got a lot of creative stuff im going to take my time with and get my ideas fleshed out.

Post by: Coryn on April 06, 2012, 04:22:00 PM
If i know anything it's ok to be happy when bad people die. It's a bit more complicated than that i guess. Don't loose sight that a human has died. That is a tragedy no matter who it was. Because you have to realize that a person isn't just their deeds. They're also what they could have been. That at one point they were innocent children. Just like any other.

Well yeah you're right on that, I just like trying all of the Characters, that's the most fun part of the game for me. (Besides emulating it's wonderful art).
The free test weeks are really awesome, so I'll just wait till he's free for a while.
I only play like 2-3 games per week after all, I hardly have time for that, so wasting the $10 is not a good idea.

No no! I don't meant it in that way, it's just that many of those stories tend to be +18, and I just wanted to make sure. We've had pretty young members (like 13 for example), and H-manga can be EXTREMELY weird.

So yeah, on the +18 manga field there's a lot of that. I personally don't read/watch too much of that (don't really like it that much), though even with the little amount of what I've seen, the Old girl / Young boy thing (also know as Straight-Shouta or SS), is pretty common.

Heck, even in cartoons you see that a lot, (adventure time comes to mind.)

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on May 06, 2012, 11:25:40 AM
Wait... We all watched apocalyptic movies. But if I had to conquer Africa I'd just start a real good drugs trade and get more money than the government, then I'd force them to step down. Any country will do pretty much. Drugs are very easy to get here in Holland and Africa's borders aren't know for being very tight, if I'm not mistaken.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on May 06, 2012, 03:08:46 PM
You make it sound easy... How would you begin?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on May 06, 2012, 03:42:56 PM
The key is to pick your starting location. First you find a country that is suitably *censored*ed up. Poor government. Probably an abusive dictator. Lots of unrest. Where you find most rebellions happening. Then you need a suitable place to start. A small village, someplace out of the way and isolated from the main traffic. The kind of place no one neither hears nor cares about. At this point you need two things. A small, loyal, armed force, and a good front man. The people wont listen to someone who isn't one of their own. You go their offering peace from the oppression, and some incentive for the villagers. Better seed for the crops, a good supply of medicine, maybe just protection from whatever military dicks are roving the area. The main goal is to empower the locals. Make them want whatever they aren't being provided with by the current system. Above all do things peacefully. Shooting up the place makes you no better than the other guys. The end goal of course is to actually want things to be better for these people. These kind of countries exist because powerful men don't care for those below them.

Once you have rallied some support it becomes time to move to the next little isolated village, and repeating the previous process, though this time you have other locals to back you up. The key is to be quiet about the whole affair though. Slowly expanding your influence, until you have a strategic area under your control. Slowly using subtrafuge until you have a network across the whole country on your side. At that point you have the complete workings of a rebellion that's popular with the common man on your side, and that is when you strike. Hopefully a sudden country wide civil war will be enough to dismember the current military, at all times offering enemy combatants to join your ranks. They are just people as well after all, trying to feed their families. Best case scenario is the dictator flees at the sight of his nation bursting at the seams, worst case is he tries to keep up the fight. Either way you have to get the UN on your side, if not maybe NATO or hell, any nation that thinks they could benefit from the revolts. Once your revolt is in plain sight, you can make your case to them, cause they may try to be quiet about it, but a lot of nations will help if they think they can make a profit.

Step three. Assuming the revolt was successful you have to first calm the people back down, rest up the troops and keep them happy. Now you've got to draw up a new government. It doesn't really matter what kind as long as you don't give the people another dictatorship. You'll need something that gives the people a say while keeping a good figure head in charge though, so a parlimentary monarch is always neat. This is the part that is the make or break of the plan. You've promised better things for the people, well now you have to come through on those promises. Now with any luck, your country is rich with diamonds. This should be one of the deciding factors before you start this crusade of world domination. You see everybody loves diamonds, but they tend to dislike finding out they just bout a crate of blood diamonds that they must sacrifice so some customs agent because buying diamonds that fuel wars is wrong. But these diamonds aren't fueling a war, they're fueling a legitimate country. Just as the US bases our currency on gold, you do the same with diamonds. And with a brimming trade agreement you start importing. Food, water, whatever your country needs.

At this point you dig in and build up your bases. Turn your country into the jewel of the continent. Since the workforce has been converted from mostly military to a mining industry unemployment should be fairly low. People with jobs earn money and money makes people happy. Once you've made a successful country however there comes the problem of envy. This will cause unrest in the surrounding nations. And when they are properly riled up, it comes time to assimilate them. There are a lot of ways to do this, though marching your army in really isn't the best, then you become the bad guy and a lot of people start comparing you to hitler. Again peace is the best route. If you can just get them to assimilate willingly. If not, start a fire under their asses. Get your people to start a revolution there like you did here. With the sole purpose to become part of the thriving nation you have built.

wash, rinse, repeat

Just got my ACT scores and my results are...

English: 20
Math:16
Reading:19
Science:14

Composite score: 17

Yeah as you can tell, I didnt really give a *Censored * about the math and science. I only foused on the reading and english since those are my strongest subjects. Even though this is below average, college for me is still possible so I'm happy with what I got.

But man, I would've done so much better if they gave me more time. *Sighs* Oh well, life moves on.

So this week my son graduates from kindergarten he has had a rough school year and after some testing the psychiatrist that works for the school and his doctor are sure he has Autism, the tests that I allowed them to work with him on were very in depth, I had to fill out a few observational tests as well and the conclusion was unanimous. So his school and I which thankfully has programs and licensed teachers who can handle such have been working out a program to help him adjust.  I was in a 3 hour meeting yesterday going over all of that and I think it will be good for him. By this time next year he will be able to adjust to school a little better I think and now I need to find something we can do this summer to help him with some of the developmental delays that plague him.

And im bummed Maurice Sendak passed away :( I really wish I had kept those little bear books I had as a child I loved his illustrations.   
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on May 08, 2012, 02:05:03 PM
well i hope the next year will be better for him. Autism sucks for sure, but there are plenty of people with it who lives perfectly normal lives.

Yeah that's a major fact. If one could get a hold of their database. That person would know everything and anything. I'm sure even the information they is kept secret from their own members. Considering they're brainwashed as well.

I recently finished (up to date) both Game of Thrones and Sherlock.
AMAZING SERIES! Though the first could use less f- under consent of the king, there's too much of it xD.
Sherlock has such a HUGE Dr.Who vibe... Well they have the same producers so it figures.

Can't really stress enough how good those two are!

I agree with Coryn. Just give it time.

The only thing I'm not really liking is the IN YOUR FACE shipping everywhere. It was subtle and it was built up on the last airbender over 3 seasons. Korra confesses in less than half a season.

Also, the Zuko's mom teaser at the first ep... RAEEEEEG!

true. but at some level it makes sense to have more romance stuff happening off the bat cause we're dealing with a bunch of 17 year old characters.

i really hate the flash back things though. mostly just cause they're taunting me with old sokka! his humor can have only improved!

The series really does have potential I like that Koora is plausible for a 17 year old girl her attitude even with her being the Avatar is fitting.  I really think im going to like this series almost as much as the first because the first had Toph who warms my heart while her daughter makes me feel kinda "meh" as much as a wild spirit Toph was especially given her status seeing her daughter's attitude is kinda disheartening. (I wont spoil to much for those who havent watched the series). 
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on June 01, 2012, 03:37:35 PM
well the last episode i saw kinda hinted at her having more a wild side than was originally shown. (if you've seen the episode i think you know what i mean) so there's hope yet. i refuse to believe that nothing of Toph's personality rubbed off on her.

Meet the Pyro was pretty amazing. I love Valve... :biggrin:

Also, I recently picked up a copy of ZUN's Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil game. It's one of those danmaku always-facing upwards shooting bullets like a madman while dodging things impossibly game from 2002. It has to be one of the most frustrating games I have ever played - not only can I not beat it on easy, I can't get past the stupid fourth stage. I swear, games from 1994 - 2004 are wonderfully made, brilliantly composed... but hard as hell.

I've started recollecting retro gamer ROMS again, to get an idea on the programming teams that came together to make the games. I want inspiration on how to get better and what to aim for in my programming.

Started Secret of Mana on a super nintendo emulator. It's a classic rpg in case you haven't heard of it. People seem to always vote it within top 10 of any 'best super nintendo game'

Anyways i waited for the beginning cast to start rolling. And...

There was only one programmer. One.

Awesome! Squareenix already had a badass team from the beginning huh. I'm excited!

I'm on page 100/435 for java for dummies, so things are going well. I'm still knee deep in theory, but i'm happy to say my past programming days are adding up well and some of the terms don't need defining. Others i'll need to practice to understand properly, but i'm optimistic.

tl:dr things are going well

I am seriously considering offering up some money to get a poster rendering some of my favorite girls from DDO done.  I am unsure about the rules against that so i'll have to confer with the admins here but once I move and get settled into my new place I seriously think I want to put some funds to the side and hire someone to draw my top 5 girls from the game.  I have Kalari my elven wizard who is a pale master necromancer, her sister cleric Kamari an elf of the undying court.  Nyxy my rogue/ranger, Euphro my rogue/bard spell singer.  And Kahayla my knight of the chalice a paladin who fights demons with a divine vengeance.  I also have a fighter but those five were the first I bothered getting to level 20 and beyond (they finally have epic levels whee).  And I would love to see them in a poster but Id feel bad having someone do all that work for no pay.

I can tell you about copyright laws about it.

As long as you don't mass produce/sell your commissioned poster it's perfectly legal, if it's something for personal use then there's nothing illegal about it.

Selling stuff as pins/badges/posters with fanart on them is 100% illegal though, since it's for commercial purposes not personal.

Thanks Pablo and it would just be for me I want a poster of my top 5 (I have 23 alts in the game  :D) but those are my top favorites and id like to get an artpiece rendering them done. I already can envision it somewhat and would give the artist full details and pictures of each girl.  I just wanted to make sure it was okay with the peeps here but its definitely for personal use only.

Whew I have been a busy Nyxy, trying to get my projects tackled before the move to North Carolina. I'll be leaving my old home here on the fourth of August though I should be in the Skype chat at least via my phone the next couple of days after while I try to get settled into my new place.

Got a new laptop, looks like i've got the processing speed i finally need. And it's battery works so that's a plus! A big plus.

Post by: Coryn on August 03, 2012, 11:12:34 PM
Well well well, what do we have here? Someone who's never read homestuck? Oh I'm so prepared.

Homestuck is a webcomic made by Andrew Hussie, founder of MSpaint Adventures.

Presented like a choose your own adventure game. You follow 4 best friends from the internet at they play a magical game whose sole purpose in existence is to spawn millions of new universes from each and every game session.

The comic utilizes dozens of different art styles. Updates vary all the way from single frames, to 15 minute long flash animations, and even video games.

It's also the longest and most updated webcomic on the internet. Hussie once ran the numbers. He could take a break for 13 years, and still be on top.

By why keep listening to me? You could be reading already.

http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6

I should warn you however. Saying that it starts out slow is an understatement. But liken it to a rollercoaster. Sure, that first uphill climb before the ride really starts may take a while. But once you reach the summit, it's an all out carnival ride of thrills.

No one who has made it past the beginning has ever complained from there in. And trust me the rewards are spectacular.

Here we even have a short glimpse into the life of Hussie. He's the one in black. It's actually probably a pretty good representation of his personality.

Homestruck -  That is a huge webcomic. I hope my save worked...

Just watched Total Recall today. Pretty awesome. They even integrated real science into it, which is a total win for people who know the science (an example would be the contraption they call, "The Fall"). Would recommend the movie to anyone who hasn't seen it yet. Had a good "moral of the story" to it as well, which rings loud and clear throughout the movie. They even tell it to you flat out - but you have to get almost to the end to hear it straight up.

Karkat x Nepetta, cause it's freaking adorable. (And I see Lily and Sapphire there, for some reason.)

Also, my sister loves PB x J (only Coryn will get this I bet).
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Monster if you don't ship kar x nep to some degree you're just horrible person.

I know the feeling though. I don't really ship any of the characters myself. But i do back or disagree the ships others have come up with.

Can't stand pbj though >.< mostly cause i associate heavily with gam. so seeing any of the artwork just makes me feel awkward. least i don't know any people who associate with tav. just a bunch of sols and kars

lego might get it too though. but i can't really say how much fandom he follows.

Hey everybody, my manga story, Samurai Super Star, will show both protagonist and antagonist as teens. Takes place in the future, (2013) Japanese twin brothers became samurais of the past a year ago to fight against genetically modified American teenage soldiers who taken over major countries to show America as the greatest country in the world. The pairings will be a younger boy/older girl relationship. The twins' names are Sakuri and Sukari Keneiyu, who lives in Tokyo, Japan, became samurais of the past with 7 elemental powers (Nature, Water, Ice, Fire, Lighting, Earth and Wind) from 7 dragons who reincarnated into humans who became partners with their friends from their childhood to help them fight against the corrupt U.S. milltary made up of genetically altered immature American teenagers, who also somehow gained their elemental powers to use with their weapons. Also, the twins are not only facing the milltary, but along with the milltary are two American soldiers, James Washington and Jack Wolfen who are their first friends even before the twins have made friends who are chosen by the 7 dragons. (Don't mind this if you already seen this)

My internet is up and installed and I'll be back in the swing of things by tomorrow right now have more errands to run then going to take some down time maybe actually sleep :p lol.

So bioshock is good huh? I must see that.

Just started playing Alan Wake 2. Meanwhile we've been having the craziest fun ever with multiplayer LAN games in Halo 1, Starwars Battlefield II and soon Warhammer. It's madness, the things that are happening in those matches. We name the network we play on "Headshot Central". It lives up to its name

noticed Hasith was on. was wondering if you could tell me if there was a topic on getting rid of writer's block. thought Coryn had one but when i searched for it only thing that showed up was Hitomi's- I mean Shuuen's story called writer's block. Hope you could help me out with that question. if not, no biggy.

Man, airport wifi is slow.  :glare:

Needless to say, we decided to take a vacation to Costa Rica. T'was a wonderful plan, about 14 hour travel time total. A little delay makes us miss our flight out to Texas, and here we sit, at 3 AM, in the San Francisco airport all stranded-like. We were supposed to be arriving in Costa Rica today at 9 AM... but I reckon that's out of the question now.

In United Airline's infinite wisdom, they thought it would be best to ship us to New Jersey (West Coast of the United States to the East Coast for those not familiar with the country) to stay the night for the rest of the day (Monday), and catch a flight to Costa Rica (a direct line for once) the next day (Tuesday). Bah. Keeping in high spirits though. First time being stranded in an airport - not as fun as I thought unfortunately. Can't imagine being this way for weeks or months though. Terrible.

Google knows all. Should be just the same as a manga or a comic-book, just with the panels and gutters arranged in a more compact format to fit on a smaller space in the comics section of newspapers.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

guess so. thanks Dr.Zeal :)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on September 03, 2012, 12:32:46 PM
yeh. the key is to understand the three comic panel set up. you have two main formats, though of course if you can successfully pull it off differently that's great, but this is a good start.

Way 1.

panel 1 introduces the joke. panel 2 has the body of the joke, and panel 3 is the punchline.

or Way 2.

Panel 1 both introduces the joke, panel 2 is the punchline, and panel 3 is the fall out.

but again, these are just the plain basics, for instance, you could also do a set up where panel 1, contains all three parts, and the other two panels are used for a drawn out reaction, which ends up being the part people are intended to laugh at.

If you want you can look at some examples of comics I used to do utilizing an online comic creator. Of course there was more freedom here, but should serve as some examples. oh. also these are kinda freaking old. specially the first ones.

Just take your time with your work. Nurture it like you would a mother, and refine it like you would a father. Over time you will grow to be better, I assure you.  ;)

@Twotail12
You mean how to write a story/script for a manga?

If thats the question, then making a script should be simple yet effective. I usually write dowm dot points and summarise each individual scene/main parts of the story. Each point making important note of the action, any characters interactions, plot turns/development, or the setting.

This short 'Summary' layouts the entire story. It's effective because any wanted changes can be added easily. (Probably about 1-3 pages depending the length of the manga). Once I written down my broad summary of my story/plot, I start writing a script where the dialouge happens, making sure the dialouge fits in the scenes of the 'Summary'. (The amout of pages of the script depends how much dialouge is involved in the story)

After that, It off to the drawing board where everything comes down to experimenting with panneling and page layouts.
hopes this helps :)

Hell yeah. My weekend just dissapeared trying to play them. Great storylines. Hey, got any tips on how to level up quickly in shin megami tensei? Without the fast-forward button like in GBA i can barely manage to get to the god-like levels i wish to be before facing the big bads. Beldr wiped the floor with me before i finally beat  him.

Have you played Persona 3 and 4 yet, Lego?

No not yet but i've been dying to. I've only got to play Shin Megami Tensei because i could find the rom on the net. My friend has it but he lives an hour away. The guy doesn't even touch the game. It's FUUUU all round.

Hey I have a question. Remember that Misadventures of MR idea I came up with? You know the comedy idea for an MR Cannon? I wanna make a topic for it but I don't know where to put it. I'm stuck between writer's workshop and Manga Creations. Any suggestions?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on September 12, 2012, 04:32:24 PM
well i can't remember teh details very well. can't see why you'd put it in workshop though. either develop your story or manga creations depending on how along the idea is.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

oooh MR Canon is very much welcome. can't wait!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coach Fro on September 12, 2012, 07:58:53 PM
Well the idea is to have an MR cannon based off comedy, where members of the forum can write short Comedy skits about the MR universe. Since I decided that the topic will be open for anybody to write something and not just me, I thought the writing workshop would be a good place to have the topic, but I'm better off just taking your advice and putting it in one of the other two sections.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

A quote on Valve employees:

"Mr. Newell says that relatively few people have left Valve over the years. When they do, it’s often because a sick parent needs help. In one case, Valve moved an employee’s parents to the Seattle area, where one of them was also able to receive better cancer treatment."

Sudden blackouts are the worst, specially the ones caused by thunderstorms since they toast your gear.

I  protect my power surge for my gear with 2 levels of power failure protection.
Learned that after the last storm killed my old power surge. Lucky me, only the surge was damaged.

I really recommend having at least 1 protection for your power surge if you use a desktop, and even for your laptop.

So an amazing thing just sort of happened.

I got to visit my dream library in real time. I don't know if you remember, but i sort of have this place that i get to see novels and books and stuff in countless shelves with all their own stories and stuff, all by me? Haha, i got to see them.

I'm not talking HD crystal clear definite seeing the stuff like in a dream but i could sort of er... feel them? I could sift through the stuff and i pulled out a bunch of stories. I was and am mega inspired. I mean, it was so effortless. I thought i was pulling my own leg but i started 'copying' two stories i found in the library, IT WAS SO EASY.

Woot.

Wooooooot!!!!

You've taken your first step into a larger world. I know exactly how you feel though. You would be amazed at the percentage of stuff from CS that I lifted straight out of dreams before.

Let me tell you. It's fun riding a skyscraper sized sword a mile into the air.

sounds awesome haha. So you got that giant demon sequence from a dream too huh.

 As for me i don't get to experience the stuff, i just read it and see it between the pages. Ah man it's really a great feeling. I wonder what to call 'my place'. A Mind Palace i guess. Ohohoho, man, this is a happy day.

Ah... the mind palace, such a wonderful fountain of inspiration.

It's a bad thing that mine always lights up when I'M TRYING TO SLEEP!

Scumbag Mind Palace: Hey! You're trying to sleep? I see you already turned of your lights, but what about this super awesome idea! Or X character could say/do this! Wouldn't that be hilarious!?

Screw you Mind Palace! I always have to get up and write it down....

For those who didn't pick it up from the voice. That's Grey DeLisle, aka the voice actor for Azula from Avatar as well as a slew of other roles from Billy and Mandy to Adventure Time.

So for those who are counting. That's 2 firebenders reading Homestuck. And my day just got a little better.

Nah Coryn taco's are way too foreign for these parts. It's not impossible that they could have them in other districts but not in this one. Live in a mountainous sort of area myself. The town is okay but no tacos.

Maybe i can make some.

well if you have access to stove stop and a skillet you can make your own tortillas. They are just pieces of flat bread really. you can find a recipe online i'm sure. for filling you can use pretty much any meat/cheese/vegetable combo.

Heck yeah anyone can cook! People are always amazed by me when I turn rye berries into bread, or even funnier, burrito shells. In reality, the process is so simple small children can do it.

Cooking is definitely something you get better at, though. I think most people who "can't cook" just try something once or twice and give up because it's not expertly done. Experience plays a large part in how good something is.

Speaking of chips, I can make chips out of kale leaves. ^.^

Yeaup we were colonized by the british so we run on the UK system. So meters instead of feet, chips instead of fries, colour instead of color e.t.c I find it interesting rather than a nuisance though. Still can't get a handle on the measurment differences that well though haha.

The only two things i keep running into: 1. burning food! when it's a really stressfull day or week i end up forgetting that im cooking and burn everything!!   and 2. not having what I need. the right ingreeeeeedyence.
Last month i made cookie dough but i didnt want to heat up the house so i fried it in a pan...it was soooo goood!!!!! and probably really bad for me! lol

Post by: Coryn on October 31, 2012, 04:57:51 PM
save up your money and watch this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bZkp7q19f0


It comes from the song "Gangnam Style" by Korean pop star PSY. The who song is actually a satire on the Gangnam District, which is sort of Korea's Beverly Hills. If that makes sense? Basically a bunch of really "fancy" and rich "fashionable" people live in the area. But somebody who actually lives there would never actually say Oppa gangnam style. or "I am gangnam style", so he's making fun of posers.

also see the wiki article.

I had a terrible dream last night. Hasith had changed the interface of MR. Instead of a forum it became like a walk around in a video game. All 8bit style and black and white. It was so broken. Nobody could find anything, and the world was broken so that it might just stop rendering parts of it, leaving you just floating in a black void of cyberspace. It made it impossible to even talk to one another, and when we complained to hasith about it, telling him we needed an index to get anything done, (for some reason we were all physically around each other), he just refused to acknowledge there was anything wrong with the new system.

and that's when i woke up.

Also, American Thanksgiving is the second to last Thursday in November. Canadian Thanksgiving is in October sometime though. So that's probably where the confusion stems from.

I was signing up for a account on a forum and it gave the option of a "panic button"

"The Panic Button is an icon that resides at bottom right hand corner of each post. If your Boss turns up, clicking the icon immediately sends you to another URL of your choice.
Select the appropriate button to turn this feature ON or OFF."

I thought it way pretty funny

great waste of time... you cant post anything unless you pay a yearly sub...  :push:

oh good... I just remeber the "adviser" at the art institute of dallas going on and on... making me feel stupid, and then ragging on me for not bringing my portfolio. (or however all that stuff is spelled)
It makes me nervous that they won't want me there.  :unsure: 
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Suuper-san on December 14, 2012, 05:48:21 PM
I am very happy about it, to me it is close to my dream job of a teaching assistant, well I hate teaching but on an individual basis them I dont mind, the job will also involve a lot of organising but I am familiar with what has to be done and I love organising so it is fun :P
Hopefully I will get the job, it's a bit uncertain yet but it seems likely I will get it since the teacher I will be helping basically requested me lol (probably because she knows me and doesn't have to get used to another person since I know all the staff and teachers there)
Meh if not there are always other jobs, but I think I will be annoyed if I don't get it :P
Man this is the longest post I have made on an iPod, I don't think I will be doing that again :P
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: h_musick on December 14, 2012, 06:22:20 PM

i am probably somewhere in some system i dunno :p

I got everything together, wnet to get my shot. when i get out to the parking lot my car gave out at long last. got home to the dogs ripping up pillows. the cat had been poisoned from drinking out of the bathtub. then all this went on and on til last night when it all seemed to just stop. now im rested and ready for round two... but i guess my life will be calm til jan and then i guess it will be a rollercoaster again. lol. someone please tell me that this is just life and not my bad luck!  :ninja:

 When I was a teen my weight would go back and forth about 5-8 pounds depending on what I ate or how much I drank (or didnt drink) it'll be ok. if your worried you should talk to someone about it

actually thinking about it i do drink like 2+ liters of water a day that might contribute to it......problem solved!

Seeing as i'll most likely be thrust into yet another quiet Xmas and New Years, with no snow or anything particularly great to remember this eventful year by, i feel a little sucky.

So, care to share your awesome Xmasplans And wherever you are? is it snowing there? I want to share some little tiny amount of excitement of the holiday season.

But fear not. If things are looking to be as boring as i think they are, i'll simply get wasted. Continously through till 2013 baby!


And, i always describe a prediction for the year in one word. My description for 2012 was LEGENDARY, and it lived quite up to that this year. So many things to mull over. I'm glad.

And my prediction for next year? THE GREAT UNKNOWN. I predict a trippy year guys, and i'm looking forward to it (not to being that much older though hehe)

we finished time travel in 3 years from now (see what i did there) but had to make contact with another world line because of certain .... circumstances that required sending certain important statistical data back to before a certain event happened. this happenes to be in the world line in which i received the data, my team and i have 3 years to alter the timeline to avoid...... i need to be careful to not reveal too much or i could alter history by accident....again.

Technically you'd only be altering the world for the first time, since this is a different world line.

And furthermore, since this is a different world line, just the act of you being here changes it's future.

Furthermorer, telling us even that much is enough to change the course of events that were supposed to unravel naturally. Now we'll be inclined to either helping or impeding you, resulting in your goals being completed too early or too late. This means you'll have to jump to another world line and try again with your fingers crossed.

secondly, the again refers to all the muck-ups where we messed up the plans to alter history efficiently, we ended up making it harder for ourselves by that.
additionally, the team can function with help or hindrance; we are a specialised unit.
hope that cleared it up :P

Got robbed friday night. While I was waiting on my bus to get home from school, two random dudes walked towards me out of nowhere and one of them pulled out a gun and held it directly against my head. I got hit with the gun a few times, but none of the strikes didn't even hurt me. The crazy thing about this whole situation is that all they took from me was my hair pick and my track phone. I mean seriously, you can't honestly be that petty.

Well anyways, I'm all good though. I laughed the whole thing off when I got home. Even though I was scared while I was being robbed, I felt some sort of excitement for some reason afterwords. Don't know why though. I'm happy that didn't get killed over something so petty. Hopefully, Karma will have her way with those punks.

Damn dude. That had to suck. If it were me I'd be pissed off. I hate when people touch my things without permission. Even simple things like legos. I'd have handed him the phone and pick, but the moment they turn or get distracted, I'd pull a knife, or pencil (w/e I'd have at the time), stab them, take the gun, hold it to HIS head, and see how he likes it...... then laugh, use phone to call police and an ambulance. But hey. I'm f**kin' psychotic so that's just me. ^_^ Glad you're OK dude.

Post by: Coach Fro on February 01, 2013, 09:50:38 AM
Thanks guys! It's good to know you guys were concerned about me. They're lucky that I can't use my Afro powers in real life.

So anyways, a quick update on the situation. Turns out these same guys that robbed me robbed two other people on the same night. Also, these dudes actually go to my school (I recognized one of the dudes faces). So on monday, I went to the school and filed a police report. These retards actually decided to come to school and in turn they got arrested. Some time later I went to the police station with my dad and I pointed the two guys during a line up to confirm it was them. The other two victims pointed out the same guys that I pointed out. So yeah both of the offenders are in custody. All I have to do now is go to court, testify, and then everything will be settled.

So all in all, I'm glad that I stood up for myself and got these bastards arrested. My mom told me that I saved some people's lives and I don't even know it. I guess that's true. What I'm still mad about is that the gun they used was fake and I had a feeling it was fake too. Now I wished I would've took Jack's advice and beat the crap out of em. Oh well, fake or not, it's armed robbery regardless.

Line ups are unreliable in fact yes. Cops just keep using them because they're easier. and the populace believes they're the gold standard because we see them in pop culture all the time.

in fact though, the problem is that in a line up, people use relative judgement. ie: they just pick whoever looks the closest to the right guy. and of course if you don't make a decision at all you just feel your wasting everyone's time and now you feel judged. So you're just going to pick someone.

a far better method is to have faces of suspects be looked at one by one on a computer screen or through pictures. It shifts the brain's focus, and statistically improves correct identification by a *censored* ton. and with this method you can work in many more suspects, which is also quite useful as you can imagine.

Oh right... (speaking of dreams)
According to last night's dreams: if there is a zombie end of the world thing, you should make sure you have chicken wire, bags, those things people ride on at walmart, and a boss that collected martial arts weapons.

oh! and I found manga at good will yesterday... I didn't know it so I didn't buy it, but I think I will see if it's still there next time I go. lol

I was tired of carrying thousands of pounds of books and stuff and dropping stuff and breaking messenger bag straps a few times a schoolday... so I found it, a blackish kinda steampunk looking bag. I am in love... But now I have so much guilt that I can't even enjoy the win. I TOLD myself I could only buy stuff if I had a good score on a test. I think I made up for it on my writing test though... I should maybe stop hating myself for my impulsive decisions just this once... But forrealzies, I am not buying anything else for myself unless I have a good test score MMMMMMMKAY!? *Was talking mostly to herself.*

Sweet sweet justice.

I just found a gold mine when it comes to Manga in the city where my dad lives. There was me thinking there are NO manga stores in Holland, but sure enough, in the very back of a huge bookstore, there are three shelves with at least 3000 euros worth of Manga volumes, from Bleach to Bakuman to Soul Eater.

Speaking of which...

(http://i945.photobucket.com/albums/ad293/Tostificer/CAM00002_zps92209ccc.jpg)

About twelve euros a piece. Can't wait to have 'em all.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

12 euros... that's expensive as *censored*.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Tostificer on March 02, 2013, 11:54:01 AM
Yes, but since it's the only shop I found in my long quest to manga, I suppose they don't have much to compete against. I'm just glad I finally found some.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

6 hours? Boy do I know that feel, bro.

I've got to put in extra hours outside of school to stay on top of everything, even if that means coffee overload and getting to bed around 4 am every other day. =_=

I'd love to live alone. I'd get more s**t done. >.> I'd have food that I actually like. I wouldn't have a crap ton of dishes in the sink EVERY F**KING DAY, and I could draw yaoi without the slightest hesitation. Can't do that with 3 brothers in the house, your mom, your mom's friend, and your mom's friend's daughter. =_= They can't do s**t half the time. I really wish I lived alone. ;_ ; And college, by the way my uncle describes it, is f**king awesome!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Chelleka on March 05, 2013, 05:18:51 PM
Haha, omg that must suck! XD
But I do understand your pain. Moving as far as possible from my hectic family was a top priority of mine when I was younger. I shared a small bedroom, clothes, toys (as well as bed) with my three sisters nearly all my life, and between eight people who got to use the bathroom first was always a vicious battle....the dishes & cleaning...oh god, if I hadn't thought up a system for that... :(

But now I only have my little sister and parents left. I have my own room and no gigantic messes to clean up everyday. But it feels lonely, there's some nights where I go sleep next to my sister because I miss falling asleep next to somebody warm. =_=

I'm just going to stay as optimistic as I possibly can about college, see how that works for me. : )

Post by: h_musick on March 06, 2013, 08:57:33 AM
living alone wouldn't be that bad I guess... don't worry about college though! It's not that bad, stressful and time consuming. but as long as you stay on it I guess it will be fine right? RIGHT?? *starts hyperventalating*

In my experience, if you do end up living alone, make sure you keep some quality human contact in your life.

I spent my first year of college basically living as a hermit, it's why I went insane.

There are pros and cons to everything, make sure you know what they are.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on March 06, 2013, 10:55:09 AM
Yeh i doubt anyone can survive college alone. It's a stupid idea to say 'i want better grades so NO HUMAN CONTACT'. More often than not your better off being a social animal. People help make life easier over there.

And the parties are awesome

Wow, y'all are inside my brain...
There are still bullies in college I met them ALL today.
In highschool noone messed with me cause they were all scared of me. and even though I look the same my attitude toward people has changed, so maybe that's why people like that are suddenly after me.
note to   people at my school Go kiss your own a$$ sense you seem to be that into yourself. Oh i know! Why don't you and your buddy there go kiss each others!  :heart: Im sure you will all enjoy it! And if you are going to say something rude about me say it to my face or wait til I can't hear you. Stop slaming the door in my face, don't talk about me like Im not there.
Sorry guys... I think if it wasnt for my sister I would have lost it today. I couldnt even talk to eddie about it cause he didnt even say hi when I walked in (video game)

I would LOVE human contact about now!!  Like maybe go get coffe and couteract all the negitivity

We got musicians here on MR, I'm sure. But, I'm curious, anyone done live performances with their respective instruments/musical abilities? And if so, do you get nervous and/or stage fright?

As for me, I'm blessed to have grown up in a family of performers (mom's a Khmer Dancer, dad's a Pro Drummer, Grandma was a stage performer, and grandpa is Bun Loeung (Google the name), so I normally don't get stage fright before a performance. I've been DJing consistently for concerts now almost a full year, and community block parties before that. But come next week, it's going to be the biggest gig I've ever done. I'll be touring around the upper Midwest (okay, so it's a super short tour, three shows, and the third is opening for a well-known Christian artist. I'm excited.) So how about you?

(Didn't think this really warranted a new topic).

Huhu~, I play the saxophone for a pep band. It isn't that bad, but I understand stage fright from another source, which is having played the lead role in a lot of plays.

It's always the imagination that gets me. I dunno what it does, but it changes my entire body chemistry. I'll go from calm, lazy, and relaxed to sweaty palms, pacing, and constantly looking over my shoulder. Though, it always disappears after the first two or three lines. You march up there with your confidence tuckered somewhere with that frog in your throat and you speak your lines with rehearsed brilliance, and BAM. Tension's gone.

It's gone. All that stage fright, all that fear... And you become one with your character. Unfortunately, the burning sensation in my cheeks (like when you get real embarrassed) never goes away.

Though, it's really cool to hear you're going on tour, no matter how short it is. That warrants praise nevertheless. Do you have any videos of your performances? I wanna see~...!  :sheep:

Unfortunately, the only footage of me is either amateur footage taken in dark halls or shakes too much or it's not me actually doing what I do best and that's DJing (although I do some hype-man stuff on occasion). But, with these shows coming up, I'll try and record video from on-stage alongside the performers and hopefully it'll turn out okay.

I did a concert last weekend and my fiancee filmed it, but it was too dark and the audio too distorted to see or make out anything...so yeah...

We got musicians here on MR, I'm sure. But, I'm curious, anyone done live performances with their respective instruments/musical abilities? And if so, do you get nervous and/or stage fright?

As for me, I'm blessed to have grown up in a family of performers (mom's a Khmer Dancer, dad's a Pro Drummer, Grandma was a stage performer, and grandpa is Bun Loeung (Google the name), so I normally don't get stage fright before a performance. I've been DJing consistently for concerts now almost a full year, and community block parties before that. But come next week, it's going to be the biggest gig I've ever done. I'll be touring around the upper Midwest (okay, so it's a super short tour, three shows, and the third is opening for a well-known Christian artist. I'm excited.) So how about you?

(Didn't think this really warranted a new topic).
I was born into a very musical family. My dad is a jazz studies professor. My brothers are earning their degree under him. My great grandfather on my mom's side was a multi-instrumentalist who played celtic folk. I sing and play guitar and keyboards, but I consider myself primarily a composer. I write and have written a ton of music, the majority of which I do not like or have plans for. Many of my songs are channeled into one of two projects. The first is an indie folk rock group with my brother. We don't really get out much (we've played four live shows in three years) but we spend a ton of time writing, rewriting, recording demos, etc. The second is an experimental rock group with a friend of mine in Nashville. We correspond through Facebook, email, etc. and have been hard at work writing and recording our debut, but the latter has been difficult to accomplish due to our locations. I do an enormous amount of writing on my own spanning many genres including rock, pop, folk, electronic, classical, jazz, funk, and noise. I have performed some around town with friends at various places, in Nashville at a music camp, and even in Carnegie Hall with a choir and orchestra. I still get butterflies before performing, but there's nothing quite like the feeling of performing a song well. It dissolves the nervousness quite a bit.

Though, it's really cool to hear you're going on tour, no matter how short it is. That warrants praise nevertheless. Do you have any videos of your performances? I wanna see~...!  :sheep:

Well, I managed to find a little footage of a concert I DJ'd at a college in Minneapolis, MN. I don't have my own highlight, but you can't miss me, I'm the DJ. The DJ equipment in the Odyssey case is mine (bought it when I was 16). Working with all those artists was definitely a blessing and an absolute blast. You see me at 1:11 on the far left wearing a black shirt, and in the cut right after that next to the guy in the center. Of the artists featured, I DJ'd there for Unspeakable J, TRIGGA, and The Redeem Team. Tru-Serva is the guy I DJ with most normally, and he's the one I'm touring with. We've gotten pretty close and I've DJ'd with him quite a bit at many different shows and many different kinds of shows.

The song in the video belongs to Tru-Serva, and it's one I'm very familiar with. So, that's all I got unfortunately. If you're looking for my audio, it's in the Music forum somewhere.

I know a guy who swam to America from Cuba. His brother-in-law— at least I'm pretty sure it was his brother-in-law— was an old friend of the guard by the fishing docks. The guard allowed them to go out a little bit further than the other fisherman. When they reached the maximum allowed distance, they covered themselves in tar so the sharks wouldn't see them, and they tied themselves together so they wouldn't get separated. They jumped out of the boat and started swimming. They reached a cave about two-thirds of the way there and spent the night. The next morning, they swam non-stop to the Floridan peninsula.

I lol'd. I'm sorry.

It's not just a fence their sneaking past. They're sneaking past who knows how many armed (assault rifles, those wonderful things they're trying to pass a bill to ban) border patrol men, attack dogs, who-knows-how-many-feet razor-wired fence, numerous checkpoints, helicopters, trucks, cars, undercover agents, etc. so on and so forth. Some go so far as to dig tunnels underneath all of this to smuggle themselves, their family, and their possessions along with some drugs to our side of the fence.

As much as I'd love to say it's Splinter Cell, the risk of getting caught is imprisonment, deportation (depending on how far they got) and imprisonment, or death (shot, chewed, stabbed, smelling-salt-nom'd, caved-in, starved, dehydrated, poisoned to death), rather than a "MISSION FAILED, GAME OVER" screen.

While there are easy ways around this fence such as well-known coyotes who run hundreds of people across each year, even that's dangerous.

The people who cross our border either have lots of money, the smarts to pull it off, the guts to wing it, or the stupid luck to get across.

...

Though I will say swimming all the way to Cuba is quite a feat.  :ohmy:

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Takeo on May 21, 2013, 12:40:35 PM
I think it might work best if members met from each region. For example, the Euro Raiders all meet up at a specific point in Europe, the North American Raiders meet somewhere in the US, the Middle Eastern Raiders meet somewhere in the Middle East, Asian Raiders in Asia, Pacific Island and Australian members somewhere in Oceania, etc.

I suggest that because if we're talking about getting the largest group we can while still keeping things cheap, that would probably be the best way to do it.

As for me and the US Raiders, I'm on Tour fairly often, so if meeting as a large group isn't a priority, I could meet individual members as I'm on the road.

This morning I had one of THE MOST amazing dreams that I have ever had in my life. It was this cinematic thing and I swear if I could get all the details i'd write the hell out of that story. It was so very interesting! But as soon as I committed myself to waking up and writing it down it just faded away like i was trying to keep water between my hands. By the time i was writing barely any of it remained. I can't believe i missed that chance. Ugh. It was both frustrating and exciting.

Dreams are funny like that. We all have those dreams that get stuck in our heads forever, but most just slip away. not much we can do I guess.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: h_musick on June 13, 2013, 02:45:54 PM
that sucks. But sense YOU subconsciously created the story, really you are able to write whatever it was right? maybe... with... hypnosis...  :noidea:  I don't know I guess if I did I would be writing better stuff write? Write??? <<< ha...see what I did there?



By the way did anyone else ever take a design class? I feel like I am not learning ANYTHING! But still have an A so far. What's up with that? Not happy with it, and the teacher seems unhappy with his job.  :noidea:


Oh yeah, and my cat uses his paws to scoop up his food and eat. <<< just some  useless info to crowd your brain space.

Epic! That's going to be one awesome tatoo if it's pulled off well.

And on the hypnosis thing, it's like you read my mind. I've always wanted to do hypnosis one day to visit my dream library. It's a random place full of novels i've visited sometimes. I read some cool looking stories but i'm always chased by something or woken up before i get a chance : ( My subconscious is maybe telling me not to be lazy or something.


And in other news school is in again tomorrow. Being on the holiday so long i'm completely not in the mood, but i know it's necessary, so i'll take my bitter medicine and hope i get used to it again.

College ahoy

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: h_musick on June 19, 2013, 12:43:00 AM
yeah, it will be over soon!

they have hypnosis stuff online for free by the way, I used it for a while for sleep and anxiety and... feeling like poo in the morning. I'm not really sure if it works because it sends a message to your subconscious, or if it works because you think and want it to work. I'm not a big fan of it though.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on June 19, 2013, 10:15:44 AM
Well it's often said of hypnosis that it only works on those who believe it will work. It is all about the power of suggestion after all. If you don't want to accept the suggestion, they'res nothing to be done.

Post by: h_musick on June 19, 2013, 02:39:27 PM
I do think that the breathing exercises and relaxation is really healthy for you. Maybe we should all just listen to pretty sounds and take deep breaths.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on June 19, 2013, 07:10:39 PM
You know hannah, listening to pretty sounds and taking deep breaths are basically relaxing and breathing exercises

So in the end there is no choice? NOOOOOOO.

I'd totally go for hypnosis if i could do it. I t just seems way to weird to do it over my computer. I'd rather be in the cliched couch and shrink setup.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Nairbons on July 18, 2013, 02:11:05 PM
Worse than high school? I certainly wouldn't say so.

For me, college (or "university" for all you speaking foreign-ese) is a lot like high school, only more so. Homework goes up, your freetime also goes up, and insomnia will probably skyrocket. There's a more people there, so the likelihood of meeting new friends is a lot greater. Sure, there's probably about the same proportionally increased number of D-bags and A-holes, but you are under much less obligation to be around them. You really get the opportunity to learn who you are just by what you choose to do with your newfound freedom That's the most interesting part.

...Unless you get a roommate like the first one I had in the dorms. That does tend to suck.

I don't know what kind of studies you intend to focus on, but remember this:
"Never let school get in the way of your education."
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: KagePen on July 18, 2013, 05:14:02 PM
More freetime? I do like the sound of that! :biggrin:

"Don't let school get in the way of your education." Hmmm, now that's quite an interesting quote :hmm: Can't say I fully understand it though :push: Doe's it mean not letting the daily trivialties of school get in the way of you gaining knowledge? The trivialties being stress, anxiety, bullying, depression etc.  :ninja: Not too sure @_@

Though thanks for the info Nair! :santa:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on July 18, 2013, 06:10:46 PM
Well that's part of it. Another part is that you shouldn't let a messed up system keep you from learning. The rigors and red tape of school life often discourage people from expanding their knowledge base after they finish. They get scared off, so to me it's also saying "Always find new ways of learning."

But that's the thing about quotes, they can be interpreted to fit different people.


Though remember Kage, Nair is correct to say you get more free time, but I think it should probably be amended to "potential free time."

You don't actually have to do anything in college. You don't even have to go to class regularly and the professors won't kick you out or call your parents. And you don't have to do your homework if you don't want ( though do it cause you need to pass.)

Basically: use your extra time to be productive. Then use it to dick around.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

don't do drugs kids... or drink.

I mean I guess it would be fine if it wasn't for all that. When ever I would go to one though someone would be like, "Hey! that's Pedro! Hey! don't look at my girl!" Pedro, minding his own business wonders what the hell is going on... fight starts...eds up out side.(mostly talking crap about how they would kick the others butt) and all the girls crowd together and talk about it all night. STUPID! And then you stay up drinking and all the other girls pass out cause they can't handle their alcohol and you end up talking outside with all the guys... then they all pass out except for the alcoholic host's husband who won't stop hitting on you so you go sleep next to the wife in the living room... then you get a call with an angry wife yelling at you asking if you slept with him the next day. "no I slept right next to you idiot!"

Heh, a writer's mind never rests huh... Interesting. What idea do you see?
Maybe a story about a serial murderer who kills people whose name he finds in a mysterious "black book." It might be a bit too much like Death Note, though. Perhaps a Crime— Detective— Jury idea?

Oooh good idea!
How about it be a double-protagonist story, about two high school students. The one student, a always-smiling and polite young manga, happens upon a big, black, old book. In the book are names of various people, and next to them are names of people who just happen to be, very very close to the boy. The other boy, a very positive young man with ambitions to make the world a better place, is a part-time detective. He struggles to prove his skills to the un-interest detectives who pick on him. He's different from the other law-bringers, his vision is to get close to law-breakers and change their ways instead of dumping them in jail.
I've actually thought alot about this, I got a bunch of really good ideas ^^ pm if you're interested Pai :D

EDIT: Scratch that! I got some REALLY good ideas ! @_@

Whoops! Never saw this. If you have ideas, go ahead and write it. I can't do too many projects at the moment. I used to think summer was the busiest time of year for me, but that was before this school year. It's breaking me.

I would say, though, that your detective side is slightly weak if only because you've set up a "high school bully" dynamic between the detectives. It's really easy to project high school experience onto an institution like that, but I would suggest doing some research on police authority structures and social dynamics. Too, you could differentiate it from Death Note by not having any supernatural elements, and make the antagonist who's making this happen a mere human (I use "mere" loosely) with a psychotic kind of genius. Also, Death Note had a more Gothic aesthetic (esp. w/ use of religious symbols i.e. apples and crosses). This worked very well because of the presence of gods of death. As a point of differentiation, however, I would veer a bit more towards the Victorian (think secluded places in the city, older buildings, overgrowth, presence of smog and heavy industry, dark parts of people's lives kept very, very secret). But keep it, like Death Note, in the modern world. These would just be my suggestions.

Gaah! Nooo go read clancy now!

Well he was old so it's not a shock as in i didn't expect it to happen, but it's the sort of big news i never was able to see happen with my own eyes. I was usually wrapped in the bliss of ignorance, always finding books by legends long passed.

I envy his legacy though. I think i'd like to go out like that. If not then i'll settle for a final epic battle on a mountain with a nanokatana in my hands as i cut down an invading alien and demon alliance.

Haha, funny thing is I was listening to The Killing Lights by AFI and this image of a cowboy anime came to me, which was actually an MR cowboy story.

just randomly wrote this up to the song

A neigh of a horse.
A rider and his horse thundered across a dusty landscape. The sun was high and blaring, and the desert landscape stretched out seemingly to infinity. The rider looked over his shoulder desperately. His hat fell off his head and he didn't pay it any mind because something was coming after him.
A black thundercloud followed him. It crackled and roared.
The man drew a pistol and fired some shots into it. The pistol sounds weak compared to the thunder of the cloud.
Soon enough it was upon him.
"Go on, Falcon! Get it delivered!" The man shouted desperately. He jumped off the saddle of the horse and into the thundercloud.
It swallowed him up.
Gunshots rang out. One after the other. More than the six shots that were in the revolver as he reloaded and fired and reloaded and fire.
There was a slicing sound and a hand landed on the ground still with the pistol in its grip.
The horse neighs and flees in the distance and the desert is silent and hot.


don't think i'll actually write it though. But this 'Cowboy Metal' term and a Russian Cowboy who is an intellectual and wears a metallica shirt, that image i'll keep in mind.

I don't know, man. I went to the anime club a few times at my university. I was overwhelmed by the notion that those people loved anime on a level that I don't dare to fathom. I'm a pretty big nerd myself, but Lordy! It was hard trying to even socialize. In my mind, it really solidified the need to enjoy a wide range of hobbies and interests. I mean, I dislike the super sports-bros for their fervent love of sports, but the single-minded lovers of anime can be just as funky in their own light.

Don't get me wrong, here! Manga Raiders is full of wonderful folks that I would love to meet with face-to-face (besides Coryn. I get enough of that guy as it is). I'm just saying: Be warned.

Yeah, I never got around to attending the anime club, but from everyone I know who has, it's a pretty scary place. It's the lowest circle on the popularity ladder. And not the tv kind, where the kids who are the least popular are actually pretty cool, it's the kind where you just start feeling bad for them.

Post by: Echo_River on November 05, 2013, 01:00:57 PM
Well, not on computer yet. Um, the first day it was a oriental red hand bag from my grandma. Ideas that came up from looking at it were:

-Asian Restaurant                                       -Messengers have red purses.
-There are 2 exact same purses  .              -Naive Chinese Messenger
-1 purse is lost/ or purses are switched.     -Wrong message to wrong group.

That was the first time. The ideas didn't have to make sense. The story would make sense of it. Unfortunately that didn't come out well at all. So last night I picked up my cat paperweight:

-Cat paperweight     -Cup of hot chocolate
-A Whiteboard          -Empty schoolroom.

Er, that was not all under paperweight inspiration. My little brother picked up on it. He wrote down the thoughts he got from it, then we switched ideas. This time I think the story will be completed. Although...it may not make...much sense.

Uh, kay...then here. Since it's a sort of light exercise, some points may not be clear or rational in the story.
Title is named after the object used. This is what my brother gave me to write about.

#3 Project: Salt Shaker
-Salt shaker      -Clock         -Soup
-Goldfish              -Calculator      -Cake.

   There was a goldfish in the soup and a clock in the salt shaker. Tick-tock. Tap-tap-tap. Nameni swung her short legs, humming softly, with a large teddy bear in her lap.
   The goldfish looked flat, engraved with orange and the time hissed as it sieved periodically. Click-clock. Rat-ta-tat. Rachel sat across her younger sister. Her hair was black, but the other's was flared orange.
   “Can fish drown?” Nameni could barely peer over the the stuffed toy's head.
   “Don't they swim in water?” Rachel spoke softly, occupied with various documents before her. A single sheet lay before Nam, but she couldn't see it. Hers was math; Rachel's were anything.
   “They could drown in soap?” Nameni shifted the bear sideways to reach her bowl. It was the oriental kind, deep and round with elaborate pictures. She saw the math work, and frowned, “Can fish breathe?”
   “Air is required to breathe,” Rachel replied monotonously, “The exchange of gases occur in the gills of the fish. They filter the oxygen from the water.” She sifted through a pile of papers. “Do your work.”
   Nameni's hand found the salt shaker. It was shaped like an hourglass and could be sealed off at it's ends. “Rach, what's growing up like?”
   Rachel's gaze was bland, “It's like knowing cakes aren't the most important thing for celebration, and one can do without presents.”
   Nameni gave a long gasp, eyes wide, “Then...what is more important than cakes and presents? Huh, Rach?” She effected an innocent look.
   “It's...” Rachel produced a folder, and tucked a couple of sheaves in, then labeled it, “like, doing what you need to, and not doing what you want.” She paused and looked the seven-year-old in the eye, “Do. Your. Work.”
   “Hai...” Nameni propped her bear straight up, completely blocking her thirteen-year-old sister out of view before unclasping a panel on the back of the bear's head. The toy contained an engineering polish notation calculator. Scritch-scratch. Click-click-click. Nameni waved her pencil in the air, distracted. Rachel sighed her thoughts, eyes sharp, and brows contracted.

I think that story falls more into the latter category. Awareness was only up to using the objects at least once. Then the rest was just driven by character reaction.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on November 06, 2013, 07:10:32 PM
It seems like a good method of writing scenes. By basing the scene around objects, you naturally had symbols without even thinking, because there was an emphasis on those objects. The clock and salt-shaker seemed to signify the passing of time (of course) and the brevity of childhood; the conversation about goldfish drowning immediately drew a connection with death; it seemed to communicate that both Nameni and Rachel were experiencing a lot of pressure to grow up. The dialogue seems to support this whether you meant it or not. It's a good scene either way, so I'd recommend using this method in some of your stories, though you'd first have to identify the symbols and their meaning.

I've actually started looking back at the classics because of manga deficiency.

Hm, have you tried out korean webtoons? They're pretty cool too. If so try out tower of god!

It was good. Amazing visuals. The pacing was a bit fast, but it did make me want to read the book. It wasn't really your typical over-the-top young adult spiel. Much heavier, even more so than Hunger Games.

I enjoyed the first movie, although some of the newer characters in it were wildly underdeveloped. I wasn't crazy about the Star of Milos, though.

Yeah. That one had some wild pacing issues, and the story seemed like it was from a different franchise altogether. Some cool action sequences and whatnot, but not enough to distract me from the underdeveloped plotline.

Eden of the East had some cool movies, though. Haruhi had a great movie.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on November 25, 2013, 12:06:28 PM
I found it fun to be honest, loved the animation too.

Have not watched that one. I probably need to. I did feel like the last episode ended kind of abruptly. I'd like to see Vash and the gang on one more escapade.

Regarding Eden of the East, I think it was an original anime. No source material or anything.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Nairbons on November 25, 2013, 02:22:41 PM
Okay, upon further reflection, Trigun movie and the Cowboy Bebop movie were both pretty great. It probably has something to do with the fact that those movies were just treated like episodes of the show on a grander scale when the show itself can be divided into episodes. The just felt like they could have stood alongside the anime series quite snugly. Even that One Piece movie that took place in the desert (Which I saw with VERY little context, BTW) felt like it worked because the whole thing capped off an arc that the main story was telling. The characters all grew a bit, and the changes made in that movie got carried over into the show itself. It's for that exact reason that I will always like the hyper-Americanized mishmash of the Digimon Movie. Just because the anime series got to mention what happened in the movie like it actually happened.

But let's never forget the absolute greatest instance of a long-running cartoon getting a movie:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G__jUFD4Ef8 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G__jUFD4Ef8)

FMA: Star of Milos could have easily been preceded by Eric Idle announcing "And now for something completely different!"
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on November 25, 2013, 05:27:53 PM
I could definately go for the Bebop movie since that I haven't watched.

I think I've missed a lot of the batman hype. I've let lots of opportunities to watch all the animated movies in one go pass by, next time I see one of those collections I'll definately not let that happen again.

Digimon movies... yikes they're a lot of them. Same for One Piece I guess.

The only time I try not to talk is because I'm upset at someone.
But most of the time, the quietness is unconscious. Then I realize afterwards a conversation is over I never said a word. Surprising how much you can get by with only nods, shakes, and hand gestures.

I kind of like it when I get a cold. My voice goes lower, and I'm able to sing tenor parts. Enjoyable for a short while.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on December 02, 2013, 02:34:24 PM
I don't see the point of purposely not talking to people when they're around you. The problem I've always found with being silent on purpose is that I feel I'm intentionally spiting other people. You could just withdraw from people altogether.

Though, as an easily depressed introvert, I find that a kind of social moderation— having the right amount of socialization and the right amount of privacy— is what keeps me sane/calm. I naturally don't talk much, depending on how many and which people I'm around, but being around them just the right amount, but not too much, helps me deal with my... emotional problems.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on December 02, 2013, 03:01:46 PM
I usually don't have anything to say to anyone as a natural shy factor. If there's a conversation going, I just listen, but I can't add anything most of the time. Then I go blank when urged to socialize a little more. Just being around people is enough since observing is a little quirk of mine. Then after that to my own thoughts.

I wonder though if not talking came after I was put up to teach the class how to make an origami star box back in grd 3...No one was really listening.

Ms. K: Oh, what are you doing?
Me: *freezes* U-um, I'm making a star box? *Smiles*
Ms. K: That looks really nice! Why don't you show the class how to do it during art time?
Me: Sure! *Gets really excited. Starts imagining how cool it would be to dominate everyone*

[After I try in vain to teach them]

Me: Geez she must've put me up to that to show how bad it is when she can't teach us all. I am. never. Doing. THAT.  Again.

For a few days it hasn't been 'normal' at least. Toronto was thrown into Ice Age 4 and back woodsman days with the ice storm that hit. Our power went out and the furnace with it. So it's been candles and portable gas stoves. Actually, it was kinda fun. But fortunately power was restored before Christmas. I don't fancy waking up as an ice block.

I saw it once, and I really want to again. I know the feels. To be honest give me a couple of bucks to maybe buy a hot drink and some warm clothing and walking around in the snow would make a fine Christmas day for me...

Oh no, not the fluffy white stuff. Blatant fakes. Same with Santa's beard.

Well, it's snowing right now. But even the ice is interesting. I think ice might be a trees' worst enemy or something. There's this hollow tree that's been around for a long time. It split and completely dropped down the middle.
Any plant has a centimetre thick layer around them that makes them stick straight out...I really need that camera.

Eh? But I like getting lost in huge crowds its fun

I'd do that. But I'm not sure what to do after getting deliberately lost, haha.

Man MR has been busy on Christmas. I slept in and spent a few hours eating with the family.

@Echo: You live in Toronto? I heard about people losing power but I live uptown so I didn't get that. Heard some talk about how it was a disaster though on the radio.

WHy would somebody spam on Christmas? That just seems silly since more often than not people wouldn't be online to see it. Well normal people. Not us at MR.

@Lego I was going to say "You're doing a good job" and I hear this little cat complaint. Jk. I'm imagining you're in a one on one battle with AntataZed while the rest of us can only watch.

@LittRL Yep. East side of the city near the lake. It was a pretty wide disaster. I know people two hours north got it too. But it's worse when people don't know how to handle it. I heard there was this one family who brought a gas generator into they're house...They died...

Post by: Echo_River on December 25, 2013, 06:38:07 PM
^Er, yeah. Even for my home, when the power went, it killed the furnace, so the temperature dropped till we could see our breath. We burned candles, and the smoke gave us headaches.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on December 25, 2013, 06:41:51 PM
When the power went out for me I usually just curled up in a bunch of blankets and lit a single candle or used a flashlight. It does sound tough around Christmas time though.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on December 25, 2013, 06:44:50 PM
Hmm... These days we've stopped using candles. They're just too risky to use. There's lot's of lamps around this place these days though...

Definately no such freezing temparatures.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on December 25, 2013, 06:49:12 PM
Mom made sure I put a flannel beneath the mattress sheet. We had plenty of flashlights luckily. When really cold I wore my day clothes plus thermal wear to bed. But a hot drink really helps. Warms from the inside out. Yay for Tim Hortons.

We put the candles in jars. Even for those some people don't know how to take care of them. Hmmm, they should've included some tips on generators and candles on the radio too. But most people were heading for hotels or those warming cnetres.

+1 for saying Tim Hortons and not Starbucks. That would have been a good idea. Most city slickers don't have the know-how to deal with life without luxury.

So Coryn drops of of the fight temporarily due to a rip in time and space caused by the good Doctor who required his help. We can work that in.

Seems to have gone like this:
Coryn and Lego fight Zed, Heno, and their spamasaurs in MR city and are later joined by Musick as Coryn from time to time goes to watch Doctor Who, meanwhile Hasith is occupied in Ecchiworld but finally arrives, taking out the spam and nairbon walks in lastly. Great ending.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on December 26, 2013, 02:00:05 PM
I hate shovelling. I get winded easily and start sweating after the first dozens pounds. Sledding used to be fun for me until I found out how agonizing it can be when things get real cold and you start getting borderline frostbite on all your extremities. You know what? Snow is overrated.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on December 26, 2013, 02:03:33 PM
I think maybe you just shouldn't be sledding for such a long time if you routinely approach frostbite.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on December 26, 2013, 02:06:25 PM
Anything less around my area would equal about half an hour of sledding. Not much time. Also not that it's a tundra here, just that one you get a little wet you start to freeze.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on December 26, 2013, 02:08:27 PM
Well, I don't like mowing grass because it's too loud. But the snow was fluffy this morning. I like it 'cause it reminds me when the whole family worked together to clear the driveway.

The part I dislike about sledding is the walk up the hill. Sheesh. Five seconds down and one minute climbing up.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on December 26, 2013, 02:15:10 PM

I'm not sure but it sounds a lot. Clearing the branches, cutting them up, restoring over a dozen plus downed wires...One of our neighbours fence was broken by her tree. Those'll have to be replaced as well.
The crews are working 24 hours it seems.
The storm affected outside Toronto too. Mississauga, Brampton, Caledon...

@LittRL So where abouts are you? Hm, I haven't heard so many stories about people's Christmases. I got power the day before. I bet most people spent their Christmas in a hotel or warming centre. Course there's going to relative's houses. There's always a happy Christmas somewhere.

Then on boxing day everyone was hopping to shopping. Maybe everything was much calmer because they didn't declare it a state of emergency.

@Lego Winter is, uh, cold? ice build up only really happens with freezing rain. Rain comes down as water, but then turns to ice on contact with a colder object. Brrr...

I just flew home for the holidays. Spending my time in ol' Newfoundland right now. Besides an overabundance of snow nothing much happens here.

It's funny how people don't panic until someone tells them it's a state of emergency. The masses are weird.

@Lego: Winter is like any season, great at the beginning but then it becomes your most hated season a few weeks in.

Ah, the temperatures are strange when you come along the waterside.

Actually, people might've panicked a bit. Gas stations were packed. All the generators, chainsaws, and inverters were all sold out in a few days.

@Lego Haha. If you hate heat and bugs, winter is nice. Oh, and if you like playing in the snow a lot. I think I've forgotten how to skate. Ever gone skating? Or Skiing?
Near spring though, one stares out the window and wishes for the greenery again.

Post by: legomaestro on December 27, 2013, 09:32:17 PM
We went to an ice rink once and that was when I tried skating for the first time. I was much better off than my brothers but I kept on falling on my ass. Hilarity ensued when a 12 year old girl tried to teach me how to skate because I was the best out of all my brothers and I was panicked and like 'no no no no i'm not that good yet!"

i fell... a lot. It was fun though
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on December 27, 2013, 09:38:04 PM
The first time I went skating, everyone was like "You'll get better each time you fall!"
I took some skating lessons, but I'm back to step one again now. Haven't done that for so long. I did skiing last year. You don't fall as much - but you still fall - and going down a hill fast is exhilarating. I'd like to do snowboarding though...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on December 27, 2013, 09:41:24 PM
God skating. My parents put me in figure skating with my sisters and I'd say I hit my peak potential in those few years. I can kind of skate backwards and manage to not fall down most of the time. Still have to stop by hitting a wall though.

About snowboarding though, there's this place (supposedly well-known) called Marble Mountain here. I could go skiing and snowboarding but I choose not to cause last time I did in elementary school I was terribly scared of rushing down the hill and ending up in a ditch or in the street.

Not so much. You get a red nose and it'll start to run, you hands are in your pockets because your fingers start to freeze and without some thick socks and big boots those steps through the snow will leave your feet cold and soaked. Not to mention breathing in the cold air for prolonged periods of time is one of the most uncomfortable things of all time.

well, i think litt is about right in saying 3 head widths. At least that's about how wide mine are in real life. Though it will change from character to character. Humans can have awfully wide or awfully slim shoulders.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: DXDEVIL13 on December 29, 2013, 01:50:41 PM
Hmm it seems like mostly in manga style it's taken as half a head for each shoulder so I'll go with that.Btw it's a girl.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on December 29, 2013, 03:12:22 PM
Well then, half a head should be fine for a girl. Although the hair might make it seem the head is as wide as the shoulders depending.

A cold, not really flu...unless that's the same thing. The worst I've had was a fever in summer, with a boiling temperature outside, but I was shivering so bad I stuck on some long sleeve PJs and hid under the covers. Didn't seem to be warming up even then.

Well the books that take off like Harry Potter are usually aimed at either children or people in their mid teens. You won't find anything too amazing literary-wise looking for the next fad.

I like the cleaned up version of Greek Mythology*. Should have added that. Like I know the Gods getting it on with nymphs, animals, humans, other gods, deities, etc. are what gives birth to everything but when you hear how messed up some of the stories are man. Like did you read that Zeus rapes Medusa and then Athena, who either punished or was saving her from men, turned her into a gorgon so that she would never have to be with a man again? Messed up.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Fronomenal you are talking about the past !  :D  Yeah you missed lots of stuff. Things changed we have a new mod, Lego become a Global Mod and forum politics changed. New rules are coming in weekend.

For years we only had few simple rules because we always believe members are smart enough to understand what's right what's wrong and what really is MR. If someone made a mistake others would point it out and it would end there. People never understand freedom when they have it here u would argue with mods or even nobody would getting banned for anything and we always believed giving second chances.  But since last year it hasn't worked well for the forum.  But things have changed.

Now MR is under full dictatorship. Outside the forum You can be a Salty Mango, Sour Apple or a Sweet Potato once you are logged to MR you are Mangaraider. If you don't feel like that you can walk way or getting kicked out. We are going back to be the same lame happy forum we used be.

Oh I see. I wrote a story I think two years back that reflected the weather then. New Year's, and not a single snowflake in the sky or on the ground. Some people still rode their bikes and motorcycles. My mom is actually looking forward to the warmer weather. Winter can't be over yet...

Daily? It isn't unusual to get multiple story ideas in a day but I don't tend to write them all down since I would never get anything done that way. Though I did decide to write short stories out of some of them now to retain the ideas without having to write a full series. How about you?

Hm, I think monthly, looking at the dates I concocted some interesting plots. Mind is blank half the time, and working on the previous ideas the other half. Hard sometimes to think something that excites. Those are the only ones that seem worthwhile to write on. But I've limited myself to certain genres, so some ideas are just unwelcome due to that.

I went to the library today, and I was so surprised to find a large collection of manga! It was in the teen section I hadn't really visited. I knew Naruto was around, but they had Dengenki Daisy, Blue Exorcist, and also Bakuman. Strange I hadn't looked into it earlier. Most of them were older volumes - but all the drawing refs right there!

And, do you think cracking knuckles is a bad habit?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on January 24, 2014, 11:58:44 PM
You question made me have to refresh my memory on whether it was rumor or fact that cracking your knuckles gave you arthritis. It does not.
Quote
Dr. deWeber and team found that:

20% of all the 215 participants cracked their knuckles regularly
18.1% of those who cracked their knuckles regularly had hand osteoarthritis
21.5% of those who did not crack their knuckles had hand osteoarthritis
The researchers said the difference in the prevalence of osteoarthritis between the knuckle crackers and non-knuckle crackers was not significantly statistically different.

I actually laughed when I read this part of the article. Lucky too since I crack my knuckles at least three times a day.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on January 25, 2014, 12:16:04 AM
Oh wow the results. I heard people who crack their knuckles have healthier joints there or something like that. But I've been cracking mine a bit too much...the joints are getting bigger.
Ahah, arthritis would not be good for the writer. But osteoarthritis seems to be when the joints degenerate, so I don't think it could be a large worry.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on January 25, 2014, 12:29:04 AM
From what I skimmed there's no correlation between either amount or frequency of knuckle cracking and osteoarthritis. I find my neck and eyes tire before my hands and I can crack my knuckles at will, a trait in which I tend to use liberally.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on January 25, 2014, 12:37:50 AM
I get what you mean...I can crack all joints on both hands, and now I can't stop! So it's a habit I wonder if I should break if there's bad consequences later, ahaha...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on January 25, 2014, 12:42:12 AM
I was always told as a kid not to crack my knuckles if I didn't want arthritis at 24 but it's not something you can stop so easily. It's like tapping your foot to a song you like. From the same article it only brings about more likely hand swelling and lowered grip strength in the long term and that isn't enough to get me to stop.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on January 25, 2014, 12:52:11 AM
*Checks all knuckles to see if they're all cracked* Oh dear.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on January 25, 2014, 01:07:01 AM
Who? The people who wrote the article? It was a study to see if there was a correlation of not. The second study on grip strength was independent of the first, they're related but not done in conjunction.

speaking of knuckle cracking. does anyone crack their knuckles in weird ways? Like I tend to crack mine either against my face or against the bottom of my skull. I always get weird looks when I do. People seem to think that I've just broken my face or something.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on January 25, 2014, 11:15:32 AM
I crack mine like that sometimes. But usually I do them one by one, starting with the pinky. Which I do by curling the ring finger around it while the thumb pushes the joint. Or if I slowly straighten it out while keeping it tense, it *crack* Yeah.
Or just wiggling each sideways done the trick too.

Don't. It's not a good thing to do, you can pinch a nerve. I've had times where I had to hold my head a little slanted because I cracked it the wrong way.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on January 27, 2014, 05:23:00 PM
I'm starting to feel the consequences of neck cracking. It's starting to become a habit too. Sometimes it feels restless around the neck, and cracking seems to alleviate it.

Once I was trying to open the frozen car door from the inside by banging into it. I over exerted it and , by accident, managed to sprain my neck so I couldn't look to the right.

But cracking anything wouldn't be good in the long run...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on January 27, 2014, 05:50:26 PM
Only reason I can crack mine was because I tried to stretch my sore neck muscles. Now I can crack my neck five different ways, it's cool and feels great but I think I'll need a neck brace in the coming years.

I find that I have to at least drink one cup of coffee everyday, best in the mornings, it gives me the energy I need to pursue my daily tasks. It's my drug :3 Also, I read in a science mag that coffee generally makes you happier in life (they find that people who don't drink commit twice as much suicides) and I swear it does ^-^

(they find that people who don't drink commit twice as much suicides)

But there's still suicides so it's not a cure-all solution to sadness. I actually get really mentally active when I'm caffeinated, I have a jumpy happiness followed by a drastic downfall in philosophical contemplation. It's when I do my best and worst thinking.

It's not a single cup, Lego. It's many cups, several mug, a couple of pots, and maybe an espresso shot. I actually ordered two bottles of caffeine pills to avoid having to go through the trouble of mixing so much coffee.

I cough whenever I smell any cigarette smoke, it's a reaction I have because of my culture and my borderline asthma.

All my old friends turned to stoners leaving me pretty- was gonna say high and dry and felt the irony. It's a sad thing, really, friends changing completely just because of something they defend as harmless. I'd rather be friends with an alcoholic, he sobers up or dies from his addiction. The stoners just remain stoned even when not stoned, somehow.

I only ever tried smoking once or twice in my life, not counting those two vapurs I bought cause I'm a sucker for flavored things you can buy at a convenience store counter. My asthma is really just from all the second-hand smoke you're exposed to in a Chinese family, especially one that runs and visits other Chinese restaurants.

Ah that - *skips irony as well* -'s a pity. You know I get the alcoholic thing too haha.

The worst of it was when the parents encouraged me to come by to visit. I was helpless. (Still am.) and can only complain like this on the sidelines instead of actually helping in any way.

If the argument stands true and marijuana is not an addiction then the fault lies with them. My friends haven't hit actual braindead yet, they're actually smarter than me as far as schooling goes with their science and engineering, but hell if I can't stand their incessant talks about getting high and watching MLP or some other show just for the sake of being high and doing it. I swear it's more than half of their daily activity.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: LittRL on February 06, 2014, 12:40:19 PM
Function better. The majority of the population in China speaks Mandarin. I prefer Cantonese for how it sounds though. There are also a bunch of dialects to which two are mixed into my own Cantonese making it even worse for me.

I learned Madarin when I was younger (around five years I think) but since I never used it at home I forgot everything. My dad speaks another dialect, and hardly uses it, so I still haven't learned it.

Once when I was in Chinatown, I met an acquaintance of my grandfather's, and it was like...
Her: Do you know how to speak Chinese?
Me:...Uh, no.
Her: Waaah! Shame on you! Shame on you!

Procrastination. Just gotta love how lazy the human body naturally is. Need to get something done and your body's just like, "nope. Sorry. I ain't doing sh*t today...... Or tomorrow.... Y'know what. Ask me in  a month." And you king just sit there like the okay meme guy.

Procrastination really is a female dog. Though the best way to deal with it is to listen to your "true voice", it will tell you that you're lying to yourself and you must drop what you're doing and do what you should be doing. If you can become your "true voice"s b+tch then all your problems will go away.

Post by: Jack Melancholy on February 21, 2014, 05:52:54 PM
Dammit, Lego! Why did you let me do this! Why did you let me binge read the f*cking manga!?!
QAQ
I caught up already, and the current chapter has me so deep into the thing I'm ready to explode!!!


Also. Since I'm bring the topic of AoT/SnK, I thought I'd ask if anyone has any ideas how they think some parts of the equipment work.

Clothes have to be some form of stretch fabric for free movement, but still tight.
The straps everywhere help with the weight distribution for the 3D maneuver gear.
The replaceable blade system looks pretty simple to understand.
But the thing that gets me is the iron rope and anchors. How do they launch? The retrieval(and flinging of one's self) is explained, but I think the gas canisters would run empty pretty quick in real life.

I sketched out a rough idea of how the anchor can stick into a wall, stay in it while pulling the person towards it, but releasing when the person needs it to. The launching part of it though is a bit more tricky.
The only ways I can think of are:

*setup for both ideas atm*
(A tube that is hollow, but one part inside is wider than the other. Inside the wider part is a solid piece of metal that can slide up and down it with ease. And there and stoppers in front of the metal piece that can be moved with he triggers on the handles in order to control when it launches. The metal piece has a hole in it to allow the string through it, and the anchor's base is just barely bigger than the hole to prevent it from going in.)

1: having a strong spring push the metal piece outward until it hits the part of the tube and is forced to stop to launch the anchor out, but I don't know if that's hard enough or not.(The retrieval of the anchor should be able to pull the metal piece back to reload it.)

2:Having the gas forced into the small chamber, then releasing the stoppers to make it should out.

@_@ I have been brainstorming how to make 3D Maneuver Gear a reality all day in school.

If you want, I can draw out what I mean by all the stuff I just typed out.....

TL;DR
F*ck you. Go back and read. You don't get a summary, you lazy punk.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on February 21, 2014, 06:04:08 PM
I refuse! It's hard to understand fully what you mean without full sketches! Anyways I'm sure you saw the authors diagram and how he talked with a scientist or something to see how they'd work. I think basically they're spring loaded or something. Pull a switch and they unhook. Let it loose and they hook up... or something.

Stoppers: Stops the piece from shooting the anchor, and from shoot itself out of the tube.

Seems legit man hehe. Makes me want to look into this more. Myth busters busted a grappling hook gun, I wonder if this sort of gear could work.

Does anyone know how much 3DM Gear supposedly weighs?

Oooh, it'd be interesting to try to calculate the volume of gas in a canister and then try to figure out how much thrust it can give vs an average human body
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Jack Melancholy on February 23, 2014, 05:12:45 PM
Thought I'd share this since, y'know, 3D Maneuver Gear is the current topic.

The gear is supposed to be light weight, but no real specification on the exact number. Let's assume that gear itself , including empty gas cans, weighs about 9-11 Kilograms. and the blade holder without the blades is about another 6 or so Kilograms. So somewhere form 13-22 Kilograms all together, not including blades which I'm going to guess, since they're probably made of steal or iron, that they're about 3-5 Kilograms. each so the total would weight would probably be somewhere around 40+ kilograms. Of course that's just me guessing based on the way the gear looks like it may weigh. There's probably somebody that already figured this kind of thing out. If not it's a matter of trial and error to find the 'correct' weight.


As for that volume of gas in a canister and figuring out the thrust it can give vs the average human body weight is a matter of formulas, variables, and a calculator. Would probably take a bit of time to figure it out and get it right though. @_@ Like a lot of time actually.

I don't know about Mangaka, but manga are literally comic books that originate from Japan. So you may have more luck finding something about comic books, which may not follow 100% how Mangaka do things, but it'll be pretty close.

As for the wooden model, which is what I assume you meant, some have them, some don't.
I recently just got one, and to be honest it's not all that great. You're probably better off doing like animators, Taking video/pictures of yourself to use as references that can be exaggerated when drawing.

(You might also want to check this one out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhJ9CNU723A
It's cut into multiple videos. So you kinda have to go from one to another. Even if you don't want
to do comics/manga in that style you can still pick up some good fundamentals from it.)

J'ai deux question.

1. Would anyone happen to know the name of the certain pull toy that makes a caterpillar movement when you pull it? I'm not sure if it's from any specific culture but I can only remember seeing a Chinese dragon version.

2.I forgot...No wait. In what manner would blood come out from the mouth when one gets wounded? If that's realistic that is. I've seen those scenes when blood spews out the mouth when the character gets hurt...somewhere.
Course if it's not realistic, I'll just skip adding it to my scenes.

So if anyone has answers on that, that would be very helpful. Thank you.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on March 04, 2014, 04:25:43 PM
Well, Blood emanating from the mouth is often to suggest some internal injury or fatal illness. It pretty much means bad news either way! There's two ways to do it, either upon receiving a blow to the torso, the victim could respond by spitting out blood via the mouth. It's not usually a large amount, it is just to signify the attack did some serious damage. Alternatively there is the classic "Coughing up blood", quite often the character covering their mouth and coughing blood into their hands. This kind represents more of an illness or the effects of poison. It conjures the idea of a slow and inevitable death. So I guess it depends on which you wish to represent, if it is a fight scene, I would go with the former. 
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on March 04, 2014, 04:45:34 PM
Basically as vacant said. If they're blood coming out of your mouth (and the wound isn't actually in the mouth) it signifies some form of internal bleeding. the classic "coughing blood after a solid punch to the gut" scene you see in a lot of animes, basically means the character was hit hard enough to have something rupture.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on March 04, 2014, 05:09:09 PM
Eyup, what about being stabbed?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on March 04, 2014, 05:20:18 PM
Do you mean how blood would come out of the mouth if you were stabbed in the gut? Or how it would pour from the wound? A stab wound especially to gut would bleed profusely. It is common to see people cough up blood when stabbed or shot in the stomach in films or tv. It is after all major trauma to the body and if it is a fatal wound, quite often the victim has blood leaking from their mouth's during their final moments.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on March 04, 2014, 05:23:27 PM
Yes, from the mouth.
Ah. So that's a fact then?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on March 04, 2014, 06:10:09 PM
Well It would really depend on the location of the wound. If it was a stab wound to the chest area for instance, then Blood vessel's would be damaged in the repository tract and would almost certainly cause blood to be coughed up. However, if it was a gut wound or a stab to the stomach,you would only really get blood coming from the mouth if their was major trauma to the Digestive tract.
                 What I would do if I was thinking of adding blood or not, would be to think of what the result of the attack is going to be and what image I want to convey. Is a fatal stabbing? Is it something the reader is supposed to believe will kill the victim? Or is it something the character is going to shake off easily via some superhuman ability? If its a serious wound, I would say its a good image to have them cough blood and have it dripping almost from their mouth. This image conveys a real sense of injury and a feeling that the Character could be close to death.

Thought I'd post this here instead bogging the comeback thread anyfurther. But just wanting to let all my friends on here know more about my cancer, instead of trying to collect all their usernames to private message and just to also share with anyone else concerned.

It's a Lymphoma cancer and I'll be getting treatment for it, where I have to fly down to Aberdeen every three weeks 6 or 9 times to get Chemo. After I get the chemo, I'll be getting powerful steroids that will make me feel absolutely fine, but in 10-12 days, the Chemo will hit down on me and I have to wait until the next cycle to repeat this until the cancer's finally killed.
Plans may change though because it's cancer. Right now waiting for my Cat scan in case immediate treatment is needed.

Again, hoping there's nothing wrong posting this and just wanting to let my friends know in a more simple way to pass how I'm doing.

Warframe doesn't work on save games. It's the same as any online game, it should be stored online. As for League, there's always a place to download the actual file for the setup instead of using the downloader.

Post by: legomaestro on March 21, 2014, 06:32:32 PM
yeah i searched for torrents and stuff but nothing took. Warframe has 4 gigs worth of local files it needs to have on your pc. I thought i saved them properly but apparently i didn't, i have to download/update again to access my online save game.

My origin story is somewhere in that other harddrive too. I hope to get into it on monday. Currently burning midnight oil as usual. Whats happening with you

It was a theory. A bunch of people believe it... "Don't look at porn, it will make you go bald" is the new "Don't touch that or you'll go blind" I guess. Though now we have more... science to go along with it.  :push:

I thought I was going bald a while back but apparently I just have thin hair and a big forehead. That's thanks to my parents. Though I've actually thought about just shaving my head, it'd save on shampoo and I think I could pull it off so long as I wore monk robes.

I've actually wanted to try that. To just talk aloud and record it to see how I create a story in spoken word like the way stories were told long before. Sadly I don't' want to be considered crazy by my roommates and have settled for typing it with a paranoid shoulder glance every so often.

If you really want to put yourself through a full day of writer's block, indecisiveness, and "settling" then by all means get a taste of hell, Lego. I wish you luck on your ride across the River Styx because 50,000 words in a day would kill a mortal man like I.

The ending did ruin it. I was all hoping for some sappy cliché kiss scene as I expect from all my fairy tales from Disney but then they cheaped out on me and went the family route.

I didn't really care. I saw that ending coming from far away. And anyways, because there were at least 203 versions of "Let it Go" a day on my friends' fb pages, the whole movie just felt like a piece of pop culture and didn't really feel like a movie.

turned it around to where SHE had to do something for someone instead of just being the damsel in distress. I just thought they rushed the ending. The older sister was like "Oh, love!" And everything was fixed. Pissed me off.

They started with a good idea though.

Pretty sure all Disney movies are based off of famous fairy tales or children's stories anywho so the endings (besides the ones that are sugarcoated/altered because messed up original storylines) are already known.

depends on the version of the fairy tale. keep in mind that most original fairy tales ended in gruesome death.

Mad? I'm quite glad my childhood was ruined after I was no longer a child. Would have been pretty devastating as a child to learn the characters you got emotionally attached to died from torture or whatnot.

Disney always seemed to choose the most gruesome ones actually (Cinderella and Pinocchio namely). Not all of them were that gory from what I can remember (having read both German and English/Scottish fairy tales in various, perhaps also sugarcoated, collections in the school library). The endings were pretty varied, too. There was a whole lot of bruhaha about "Mother Holla" in the Grimm ones, though. Apparently, she was an important figure in Germanic mythology or something. It's been awhile, though, so I could be wrong.

*Happily eats ice cream*

@Echo: Hmm... Doesn't taste like yeti...


When I was little, we would go to Dairy Queen all of the time. I always got the same thing. Vanilla or chocolate ice cream dipped in chocolate. Whenever I go back (which is rare these days, honestly...) I still get that, even if there are other things I'd like to try, just because it's so nostalgic. ::)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on May 21, 2014, 05:16:36 PM
@Churro Ah yes, the simplicity of a chocolate dipped vanilla cone. Used to get those. Maybe I should try it again. I just find blizzards hold more and have more options.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on May 21, 2014, 05:21:19 PM
Last time I went, I got a large vanilla dipped in chocolate, having no idea how large it would be... It was pretty dang tall, and almost fell off of the cone the minute they gave it to me. I was sick by the time I finished it... ::)

So yeah, if you want a lot of ice cream, get the large cone. ::)

I solved that problem by making an alliance with the spider in my room. I don't both it, and it doesn't bother me. It gets a place to catch those pesky flies, and I don't get annoyed with the flies anymore.  :thumbsup:

Lego: It's so fast, I'll probably just end up spraying everything but the bug.
I know how to make a fruit fly trap, but it doesn't always work... It's worth a shot at this point, though. ::)

The real mystery is, why is it bothering me? Why can't it bother my dog? My dog would eat it for me. Why does it want to hang out in my room? I don't even have food in my room for it to eat!
Darned thing just lives to be a nuisance to me, I supposed. ::)

Vio: Spiders? How about no.

And @Lego again: Heck yeah I know a thing or two about vampires-in-training. The mosquitoes here look for a challenge. I remember one night I was out laying in a hammock looking at the stars. I was in a jacket, a thick shirt, and the cloth of the hammock was thick. The mosquitoes still bit every inch of my back while I was in the hammock. How they managed that is still a mystery to me.

Die all fruit flies, spiders, and mosquitoes! Up north they've even got these enormous black flies that swarm in the spring and bite - bite - bite!
Then in CHina they have giant hornets...Horrific.

@Churro Maybe it's trying to tell you something?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on May 21, 2014, 06:10:16 PM
It's a cloth phasing technique. Only the jounin mosquitoes can do that. But then again there's so many of them that it's not an uncommon technique.

By the way that short narrative makes me think of a sad story where a fruit fly wants to make friends with a human but the human doesn't understand it and eventually traps and kills it. The fruit fly thinks the human was trying to make friends by feeding it but nope. It was a trap.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on May 21, 2014, 06:12:12 PM
Vio: Literally right after that happened we got a bug zapper. ::)

@Echo: My family has pancakes/waffles for any meal except breakfast. ::)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

@MissChurro

It sure is! ^^

@Echo

I just have need for some pancakes. Just one of those moments where you get a sudden craving for no reason.  ;D
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on May 23, 2014, 01:56:38 PM
@Churro Haha, reminds me of when we have cereal (Called Morning Crisp) at midnight.

@Vio For cravings I usually have salty snacks. Or sour. Say pickles and cashews.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on May 23, 2014, 01:59:38 PM
Echo: Ooh, cereal at midnight sounds good. ::)

For cravings, they're usually snacky things like peanut butter (I adore peanut butter ::)), pickles, and pretzels.
But if I crave a meal, it's usually one that I consider "comfort food"... So I mostly crave meals I grew up eating a lot. ^-^

Lemon flavoured huh.

Ooh, I've got the hint for lemon meringue pie. Although I prefer apple and chocolate...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on May 23, 2014, 02:21:26 PM
@Vio: Make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with pancakes instead of bread! :'D

By the way, Meadow is a pretty name! ^-^

@Echo: I could really go for a key lime pie, even though I'm not the biggest fan... I love apple and chocolate too! Ooh and peach. ^-^

*Clears throat*
I actually haven't had one in forever... My favorite ways to have peanut butter are:
A spoon of peanut butter with chocolate chips on top
Pretzels dipped in peanut butter
And apples dipped in peanut butter.

Yum~

@Infinite: Mmm... What kind? ^-^

I can't stand the heat... If I had to choose burning hot or freezing cold, definitely freezing cold. Especially since if you're cold, you can bundle up and cover yourself in piles of blankets... If you're hot, there's only so much you can do.

Nah, well... I have those days too, but that's not what I meant this time. ::)

I meant I got a lot of things done today like chores and just random things that I've been meaning to do for a while... But even though I got so much done, I don't feel like I've had a very productive day... I don't feel accomplished, I guess. It's weird, and I can't figure out why I feel this way... I guess it's just one of those days. ::)

I try to do 1 hour of cardio workout with 30 minutes of physical exercises 3-4 times a week. I can't run no more than 12 minutes without experiencing harsh lower-back pain. So, I tend to run for 10 minutes, walk for 3-5 minutes till the pain goes away, and run another 10 minutes.

Some random guy, named Bane, came into my home, shouted that I was the Batman, and then proceeded to do the backbreaker. He stole all my Oreos before he left. That :swear: !

No. 2 years ago, I worked as commercial painter when I was attending university as a source of income. One day, I fell of a ladder and landed on my left side between my hip and lower back. Luckily, there was no serious injuries, especially my spine.

Ouch! That sounds really painful D:
Mine probably isn't as bad as yours,  but I've been having some lower back pain myself... I was hiking recently and there was a muddy rock I had to climb on, I slipped, and landed directly on my tailbone... Yeah, yeah, I'm a clutz. ::)
Anyway, we're not completely sure what's wrong with it yet (still have to get the final result on the x-rays) but it sure does hurt!

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on May 26, 2014, 04:46:59 PM
I'm having a few problems posting myself. I can't post any replies on my story thread, it just loads a blank screen so I can't add anymore chapters :( If it persists, I'm going to have to start all over again. I've got all the drafts on my hard drive, but I don't fancy having to re-format all of the chapters for the forum again :(

And yeah to be honest, I think when I have visited sites and there's a chat, its so annoying when it pings everytime someone writes a message, Also there's no jumping in point for the conversations so I just ignore them :P

There is a MR skype chat though, don't know who uses it, but it's there at least.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

I love ketchup, too. I'll even eat it with a spoon. ::)

So, How's everyone tonight?

I'm doing good! I'm just tired because I didn't sleep well last night... Hopefully tonight will be better!
How are you doing? ^-^

Ahh that sounds nice!
It's hot here today... Luckily there was a slight breeze and some clouds. I just got inside from working in the yard again. Since it's warming up, the grass and weeds are growing a lot faster... That means more work for me. ::)

The temperature is only going be high as 20 C / 68 F today, low humidity, and gentle breeze. ^^

That sounds like lovely weather! I wish it stayed that way for more of the year here...

Yeah, that's essentially my yard. I pay more attention to the front because that's the side people actually see... The back definitely needs more work than the front. ::)

Post by: GingerStark on May 28, 2014, 07:57:58 PM
I am satisfied with your rhyme... and humour...  :clapping:

Well dear children, one way to overcome writers block is to watch some material related to your story. I for one am co-writing a dark medieval story. So things like Game of Thrones and Walking Dead are good sources of inspiration.

Another interesting technique is to pop on some headphones and go for a walk, since nature is a good source of inspiration too.

Finally, observe people. Be it in the news, friends or family. Observe them, their unique traits, quirks, personal lives and stories. There's plenty to find there.

I hoped this has helped  :thumbsup:

Post by: Vacant on May 28, 2014, 08:03:22 PM
Whenever I'm stuck. I just take a break, watch some tv, listen to some music or whatnot. I also do an activity that doesn't require much brainpower, dishes, cleaning, playing Minecraft, Exercising etc. That way my mind is free to wander. That's how I usually come up with idea's.......Unless its 3 in the morning and I need to get to sleep so badly. Then my brain is firing on all cyclinders! :P
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on May 28, 2014, 08:05:32 PM
You mean it's not magic?!
Aha how easy the world would be then. ::)

I'll definitely try all of those things! Here I was about to try some of those long writer's block exercises and such... Maybe all I need is something as simple as a walk, some music, or some sort of simple task to let my mind wander. ^-^
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: GingerStark on May 28, 2014, 08:16:44 PM

I appologies for my lack of pressents during the weekend.

My older sister lost her keys on Saturday and couldn't get in her car nor house. She called me up, asked to come by, and use the extra keys she gave me to gain entrance in her house and car. At that time I hadn't seen my older sister for a few months, and I though it would be a good time to visit with Meadow.

The English version is pretty good.  ;D

My only issue with the English version is that it's not mixed well with the music and vocals. The vocals are louder and higher pitched than the music, making it a bit unbalanced.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on June 04, 2014, 10:18:43 AM
There are factors you have to consider when mixing, such as:

Timing
Synchronize
Volume
Vocals Vs. Instrumental
Professional Vs. Commercial
Sound effects
Etc.

It's now hard to mix once you consider the factors. It's just takes time and practise.
 
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on June 04, 2014, 10:22:10 AM
Hmm... I see.
I could probably do that if I practiced. Plus I'm always listening to music and analyzing that kind of stuff in my head so I probably have a general idea of how it works. But I mean, I have no music to mix haha... I would totally make YouTube covers if I could, you know, sing. ::)

I had Windows Movie Maker when I made first AMV. Right now after 4 years on YT, it has 1,069 view and 6 likes.

Making AMV's helps syncing music with images or video that matchers the theme. It's a good exercise.

An AMV, is an animated music video I believe. Usually, a battle or something set to music

yeah, It's basically where people take clips from a show (or multiple shows) and fit them to music. So it could be a fast rock song for a fight scene, or a slow sad song for a tragic scene and so on.

Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on June 04, 2014, 10:19:21 PM
Psych was hilarious, but I will say that the writing wasn't always great. That last episode was probably the best, though, in my opinion. They delivered the writing and the humor and there were some genuine feels which I rarely had with Psych.

But for a good crime thriller with good writing, I suggest White Collar.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Roshiro Byakko on June 04, 2014, 10:21:59 PM
I've heard of White Collar, but never watched it. Is it as good as people say?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on June 04, 2014, 10:23:13 PM
Ahh I got to agree with that. Some of the later episodes were especially not written that well... Especially that really weird one towards the end? Where all that weird and random stuff was happening? I think it was parodying a horror film or something but I didn't understand. ::)

But it was definitely a hilarious show!

I'll have to look into White Collar as well. I mostly only really watch crime shows if they're funny, though. Like Psych, Lie to Me, etc.

I've never heard anybody else talk about it tbh. It's very good though. The cinematography is surprisingly good for a TV show. It's not a comedy, but it isn't melodramatic. It's got a "cool" feeling about it if you know what I mean, but it's still a compelling watch.

Nightmare on Elm Street was the horror movie it was parodying (I've never seen it, but I know what it's about). I didn't see the whole thing, though, as I walked in mid-episode. In general, though, the emotional moments always seemed forced and when the humor lagged a bit, the unstable story skeleton showed a bit. But it was generally pretty funny throughout.

I'm sure I didn't pay an extra for shipping the last time I used them? I can remember it took almost a month for the shizz to arrive though. Still owning an SOS brigade t-shirt has made my life that little bit more complete :P

Ok, I got one:

Name that anime;
- The main character is teenage boy
- People have no powers, genetic power, magical powers, or religious powers,
- Had two seasons and a movie
- one girl who is 3rd strongest ranked with electrical-genetic power has a crush on the main character
- another girl bites the main character in anger.

(first time writing a trivia question...)

Haha yeah I want a bunch of stuff from there. ::)
The Hot Topic clothes aren't actually that high quality though...  So I try to stick to things like accessories, figurines, keychains, things like that.
The problem is that a lot of it can be overpriced... But it's really the only place I know of that I can get anime merchandise in a store instead of having to order online where shipping can be even more expensive.

@Vio: I have... No idea. :ohmy:

I thought a certain magical index but you said no powers O-o
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on June 06, 2014, 06:21:14 PM
I'd say A certain Magical index???

Not railgun as Misaka was the main  character

also Ginger, this is something I found for you

Okay, I think I've got a tricky one. 

-The Character is a male.
-He isn't the main character of the story, but is the leader of the group.
-He's not Japanese, he's African-American.
-He is a fan of Drinking and smoking.
-The series he is from had two seasons and an OVA.
-He's also a good shot.
-He also knows how to drive a speedboat.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on June 07, 2014, 07:57:49 PM
Okay we'll start with an easy one. This is from Bleach.

What is the name of Kisuke Urahara's Zanpakuto?

a.) Katen Kyoketsu
b.) Benehime
c.) Suzumebachi
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on June 07, 2014, 07:59:07 PM
I'll take a swing and say Suzumebachi
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

yes multiple choice  :biggrin:

B. Benehime
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Well I've never seen it, so I'll just guess Katen Kyoketsu!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Don't watch Bleach. Or any other mainstream shounen, so not easy for me.

*Waits for Coryn to show up to tell us* :P

Nabe man is correct! Benehime (Crimson Princess) is indeed Urahara's Zanpakuto, the 3rd one that's introduced if I recall. Thought that'd be a show most knew, ah well.

I'll list a few shows I think you guys have heard of. whichever ones the most well known I'll use that one:

-The melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
-Naruto
-Fairy Tail
-Code Geass
-Baka and Test
-Death Note
-Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on June 07, 2014, 08:06:58 PM

Hmm, so some Naruto, some Haruhi. I'll try a crossover question then.

True or False, Haruhi Suzumiya shares the same VA as Moegi (The girl who hangs around the hokage's grandson) in the English Dub's of both shows

Okay then Code Geass seemed popular, lets try that then.

Which of these was the name for the Knightmare Frame of the Knight of 10?

a.) Percival
b.) Galahad
c.) Igraine
d.) Constantine

The thought of post boosting is somewhat depressing. Isn't this about getting to know people who love anime and manga too? As well as becoming a better writer and artist?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

You would think so.
I enjoy seeing my post count go up, just because to me, it symbolizes the time I've enjoyed here and the friends I've made. But I won't go out of my way to raise it, because that defeats the purpose.
I see people all over different sites trying to get their post count up in hopes of looking "cool" or "popular"... It can be pretty annoying! :(

It appears that my lazy day is fate.

Just a few minutes ago, I was getting ready to do my cardio workout with my daughter. I want to promote a healthy lifestyle by being an example.

Yet Fate said, "NO!!!!! YOU'RE GOING TO BE LAZY TODAY!!!!"

So how does Fate does it? She gets my dad involved. My dad came to my house with a box of garlic cheese bread and a large meat lovers pizza that he won from a contest on a radio show.

Now I'm here finishing my message and eating pizza with my daughter sitting on my feet.   :unsure:

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on June 09, 2014, 07:51:16 PM
there's a few way's that I do. You can make a playlist of tracks to run too. Or for me, I have several podcasts I listen to weekly, so I just queue them up for when I'm working out which gives me something to do while I listen.
Alternatively, you can get an exercise bike and sit in front of the TV. You can even play games, I find RPG's are good for this, or Minecraft :P
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on June 09, 2014, 07:54:48 PM
I'm trying to get back running. It's definitely hard to build up consistency. Deprive yourself of the things you use to pass your time until you have no choice but to work out, which, once my food digests, is what I'm going to do. You can run with friends, too, preferably ones that are good runners, because fear of embarrassment is a powerful motivation.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on June 09, 2014, 07:57:47 PM
It definitely helps to have a goal in mind too. The reason I've managed to stay consistent with my work outs the last few months is because at the end of the year I'm joining a wrestling school (yes that's actually not a joke), so I know where I need to be in terms of Cardio and Muscle mass.

I thought Hideki kamiya game was pretty interesting.
(Scale Bound.)
But I'd rather wait for Bayonetta 2. :3

Wont get an Xbone though.
As for PS4. So far the only game that I want is GGXrd port.
Which I doubt there will be info at e3 for it.

As for cardio.
I do skipping/jumping jacks for 30 mins straight in the mornings.
100 reps/jumps with no rest inbetween.
Its not much but it helps me feel light on my feet for the day.

I'm only one for gaming in general. However computer gaming is the only one that seems feasible to me right now. I'm completely locked out of console gaming. I still haven't finished some legendary games from ps1 and ps2, and am even more hopelessly behind with next gen consoles.

Besides, cooking is nice. Buys up time, learning new things, and experiment what makes the food on your place taste better. ^^

The postal service here fears my dog and will pretty much just drop a package and run. They won't even knock or ring the doorbell. ::)

If it's a package that absolutely must be signed for, we have bad luck with that. They like to choose the worst possible times to show up.

I swear the postal people here are like ninjas. You never see them. Ever. They drop off a package and ring the doorbell, and when you get there, no one is in sight. I've even ran to the door before and still never saw them. And the mailman. He's even more ninja. When it snows, there aren't footprints, but there's mail in the boxes. Seriously, what?

An old friend of my family's is a mail man of Chinese descent, but he also wrote a few poems and articles to send to magezines and whatnot.

Mine aren't that stealthy. Mostly because my dog always hears them. Always. They cannot escape her ears.

The package delivery folks are more stealthy than my mailman though. They're at my house then gone. My mailman I've talked with several times, because sometimes I'll be outside when he drives by and he'll just hand me the mail. ::)

Moral of the story; do not mess with Chinese mailmen.

I hear it's really good pay, so at least there's that. I still wouldn't enjoy delivering mail... I do have an appreciation to those who are tolerant enough to do it. I always thank them as kindly as I can, and I will always smile and wave if I missed them and they're further down the street. I feel like it's a job we need to show more appreciation for.

I'd thank them if I ever saw them. I know I'd hate delivering mail precisely because it's the same thing everyday. I need to be creatively stimulated. I could never spend eight hours behind a desk or drive a route over and over. Nothing against those who do, but I need to be seeing places, learning new things to put in my writing. Or at least teaching other people the things I've learned.

It's over a foot long and cuts through almost anything. One time, while I was showing it off to a couple, they didn't believe me when I told them it would get through anything. I was required to say that as part of the presentation, but I didn't expect to be questioned on it too forcefully. They insisted I prove it and brought out a 10 lbs chunk of frozen deer meat. They told me to cut. I had serious doubts the knife would actually go through it, but after several minutes of sawing, it got all the way through. Shocked even me. I sold some knives that day.

I know you're choosing the music and things, and I don't really want to impede on that and I know most of the music is already implemented, but I could write music for it, if needed.

You're more than welcome to put together some music for the VN. It's not like i'm dedicated to using nothing but already made songs, it's just much easier.

All I did was take screenshots of every frame of a video (which was a nightmare), put them together as separate layers in GIMP, and saved it as a gif.

But it took forever. There's probably a more efficient way, but that's the only way I know. ::)

Football is football. It's the beautiful game. I don't call it soccer, so I confuse all lot of people in my country. I refuse to change the name to soccer in deference to that thugish, awful sport people call football in America.

I watched the England game (well, I've actually watched all of the World Cup games. Not a minute missed). They suffered from fatigue at the end. Heat and humidity got them, and they cracked under a better conditioned Italian team. But this World Cup as a whole has been incredible thus far. So many goals, more than any World Cup ever (I think) at this stage. Some big upsets and some great moments.

If that was the case, then baseball should be called "handball". but than what would basketball be called? dribbleball?

Or mittball? IDK.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on June 14, 2014, 08:54:13 PM
It does. But I was raised in a place where "football" refers to American football. Out of love for the real game of football, I don't call it soccer. It comes down a bit to the individual as well.

I don't like sports, really... I took karate awhile ago and I liked that, and I enjoy "dancing" (Quotation marks because I can't actually dance. ::))

But I don't like watching sports, unless it's dancing... I personally find it boring. *shrugs*

But I agree with the "football" thing. I don't understand the name. Here, soccer should be football and American football should be... Er... "Handball"? ::)

Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on June 14, 2014, 10:35:55 PM
"Soccer" is actually just a colloquialization of "association football" as opposed to "rugby football." It's a valid name, and more specific, to boot, as the shortened football could refer to "soccer" or rugby. American football, however, has almost no reason to be called "football," other than that it was descended from rugby football. Gridiron is actually one of the coolest names for a sport there is, and it's a wonder why we don't call it that here.

Either way, I am indifferent to most, if not all, sports from a spectator's standpoint.

You could but traditionally in Canada you put the bag of milk in the pitcher, like in this image:

@Syntax

Some use the little plastic clip from the bag of milk, fold the cut corner, and clip it. It doesn't stop a leak but helps to prevent a major spill.

Exactly, thats why people stock up in major cities then just send them back up north.
Idk how it is in the territories but I could atleast say that Northern stores are only in reserves or places further north like Churchill.

Well, luckily it's just milk that's the worst. I can eat other dairy products... I just have to be careful about how much I eat of it. I can make myself sick if I go overboard... Especially with things like ice cream. It's really hard to eat ice cream. >.<

But I can't drink milk at all. A couple sips and I'm sick all day. >.>

Jokes about Canadians don't even make sense. I never laugh at jokes about nationality or race. Just not funny.

But yeah, Americans are kind of dumb when it comes to Canada. And things in general. Almost everyone I've met thinks all Canadians have a weird accent. Like, really? I've met some Canadians in person. No accent. I'm sure some do, just like some Americans do, but really. It gets irritating.

So Kraft Dinner IS a big deal. Interesting. Side note, but it's actually called Kraft Mac & Cheese in America. No idea why there's a difference.

Hmm. I've also heard the news in Canada isn't nearly as bad as America's. As in, not as much violence and negativity.

Just like in America, it depends where you are raised. For example, people who are raised in the Maritimes (Newfound land, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia) people will pronounce "thunder" as " 'tundra".

We type it as -eh rather than -ay. We don't -eh at every end of our sentence, but it does come out once in a while. It's hard not to. ^^

In worst cases here they are no better then third world conditions.

If you want my personal imo. The very act from the beginning in terms of treaties is disgraceful.
It was really accepting blatant racism-ism for bribes.
Its similar with Chicago schools. I cant seem to find the Doc for it. Was really good.
Basically it was the history of Chicago and how racism had the schooling separated between black and white.
And explaining how things went nuts when they were forced to stop that racism-ism.

Well, you can't really know someone's IQ without them telling you. Most people don't even know their own. IQ is a bogus way of testing intelligence anyways. One test to measure all forms of intelligence? Petty narrow-minded. IQ tests rely heavily upon assumptions as well, assumptions that the participant has received basic education. So a low score is actually sometimes merely a refection of ignorance rather than stupidity. But I could ramble about how ridiculous IQ tests are all day. That's beside the point.

American students learn about other countries and world history. It's just that our educational system is not funded well enough to provide students with the proper tools and teachers to learn effectively. We teach to tests in America, information learned arbitrarily to receive an arbitrary grade. A grade that serves as representation of your academic worth, which is extremely counterproductive to learning. Students are not taught critical thinking or WHY knowledge is important. We have a broken educational foundation, not stupid people.

Difficultly in education is also not an accurate reflection of the quality. Finland has one of the best educational systems in the word, but also one of the most lax. Yet their scores are higher than almost every other nation.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: cheeku1999 on June 16, 2014, 02:12:32 AM
no no I don't judge people that way... By IQ I don't mean a test to measure there knowledge...... I judge peoples intelligence based on how much subjective/objective knowledge they have for example if we have a discussion how much do they really know because I have seen people who don't know much about the going ons in the world rather they seem so lost in there bubble of life that its not healthy.....  I never meant to offend American people (they are awesome)..... No education system is perfect here in India on average a LOT of people suicide due to so much stress from school

I myself study in 10th grade, I take tutions and then extra classes in school, Extracurriculars (piano) then I go to this institute which teaches me stuff from 11th,12th and college So I am ultra stressed. Our education system doesn't focus on practical based knowledge to increase our intelligence rather it focuses on all books,books,books no practicals no nothing....... and to top it off my parents are the most strict parents in the world. (beating abusing and forcing is a daily affair)

your people are in no way stupid I am just saying they just need to balance out the education system and so do we.... Urs are lax and ours is incredibly strict.

Again I'm extremely sorry if I offended someone but that was not my intention also Canada and America are amazing I've lived in Edmonton Canada for 3 years and it was the best time in my life and I hope to go to Canada once again if I'm capable...... Sorry for ranting aswell Im just venting some steam.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on June 16, 2014, 02:54:42 AM
No, no, I'm not offended in any way. Don't worry. I was simply explaining. But intelligence to me actually has a lot more to do with things other than knowledge. Intelligence has many, many factors in my opinion. Sure, knowledge plays a part, but so does raw, inherent ability and skill. The brain is so complex that we use different parts for different things. A person can be an incredible poet, but a terrible mathematician and vice versa. But that's a little different than what you're talking about.

India is very different place than America. I learned a lot about India when I studied Hinduism. I've heard of how strict things are there and how difficult it can be to break free from one's family. I've dealt with abuse in the past as well. It's hard, and things weigh on you after the years. But there comes a point where you're given a window, an opportunity to escape and begin living as you want to. When you see it, seize it. Your life is entirely your own, and no one can take that from you unless you allow them. It's a vast world, and there is much to strive for.

Well, that's my thoughts anyways. You didn't offend me, so don't feel bad. We all need to vent sometimes. Feelings aren't meant to be kept inside. That's why we have them, so that others may feel as we feel and know our hearts.

Btw Im indian but I dont believe in Hinduism though my family pretty much forces it on me -_- ...... I believe you cant truly believe in something if it doesn't come from the heart...... I am an atheist but I think the religion which I matches my ideas would be Buddhism.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on June 16, 2014, 03:28:37 AM
I know that not all Indian people believe in Hinduism, but it does heavily affect the culture there. I'm in uni, and one of my majors is Religion and Philosophy, so I study Hinduism and Buddhism. I don't believe in any religion, but I love the study of them because they influence so much in cultures around the world, even among people who are not religious.

If I was forced to adhere to any religion, it would be Buddhism. Relinquishing desire, achieving nirvana; it's very peaceful. But I don't believe that life is suffering, or that desire is an inherently bad thing. We live to desire and desire to live. Our desires are our very essence, the core of individuality. I don't want to give that up. Suffering is a part of life, but it is not life itself. As long as we keep desiring, we keep living, clinging to hopes and dreams that push us from one moment to the next. Desire is the spirit of life.

In regards to earlier comments, the IQ test was originally meant to predict how young children would do in school, so it relies little on education when taken at the proper age. Unfortunately, it doesn't actually equate to excellence in school or in life.

As far as education goes, there have been plenty of attempts to legislate educational reformation and they have mostly failed. Common Core shows promise in principle but there are also many problems to deal with. Education is a hard thing to fix.

Also, I can't remember where it was brought up or when exactly. but i remember people arguing about the "bloop noise" (oh right, that faked mermaid special)

I thought that at first when I saw it, but, actually, I think it's quite okay that they're doing what they love.

IQ tests do rely on "basic" education, like the ability to read and comprehend various concepts. That was my point. At any rate, trying to measure intelligence with a numerical value is the first mistake.

The person with the highest IQ in the world, or at least the highest known, has one of 228. She makes a living creating puzzles for newspapers. Sounds like a waste to me, but it simply shows a high IQ does not indicate an inclination to do something meaningful with it. She also boasts about it, so I don't have much respect for her. People with high IQs are not always the wisest.

I'm trying to get my hamstrings more flexible.

Question, what would you suggest someone with a high IQ do?

Have you ever heard about the different kinds of high intelligence? (I might have to translate some technical terms, so it might sound somewhat strange.)

I took an IQ test at my parents request because my younger brother is intellectually advanced. I admit that I'm exactly balancing on the borderline of it and so of course more tests had to come and a lot of explanation.
One of the reasons I scored high apparently, was the fact that I am on all fronts an average performer + very creative. Not specifically very smart or anything.

This is becoming a long explanation for something simple...

Point is; a high IQ still doesn't mean much. They took a test to try and get the world sorted into boxes which still don't fit those who are not so called "normal".

Personally I think that being normal is overrated and I kinda like different.

So why care about your IQ score. High IQ's are encouraged to go to university, but I think everyone should figure out for themselves what fits them best, because is when all your qualities (including IQ) come forward best. Doesn't have to be intellectual, can be creative, can even be the lowest possible, simply because it makes you happy and another smile in the world is the best thing we can get.

That helpful?

I do at least 20 minutes of stretches before a workout and 10 minutes after a workout.

The person with the highest IQ in the world, or at least the highest known, has one of 228. She makes a living creating puzzles for newspapers. Sounds like a waste to me, but it simply shows a high IQ does not indicate an inclination to do something meaningful with it. She also boasts about it, so I don't have much respect for her. People with high IQs are not always the wisest.
There are higher IQ's. Anyway, it's despicable that she brags about it, but, honestly, if it's what she likes to do, creating puzzles for newspapers is meaningful enough. Sure, everyone has a responsibility to help others and to use whatever talents they have to that effect, but, simply in terms of occupation, it's not like she's morally required to be a scientist or mathematician. People with high IQ's are people. It would really suck for a person to be told they're too smart to pursue what they're passionate about.

Nope. Not at all. I just like to stay flexible and nimble to keep up with my reflexes.
Based on the old fighting techniques book my dad has it has a list of stretches and movements to familiarize yourself with basic fighting stances.

I have no desire to hurt anyone. Just dont want to freeze up if say a dude/dog lunged at me.
And I'd figured that having flexible hamstrings would increase your balance in bobbing and weaving or side stepping.

Since I work at home, I need to play games that are not too addicting. I LOVE Fire Emblem! When I play FE game, I try to beat it in one sitting. However, life happens and now I got to work and raise a kid. I can't get too distracted.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on June 16, 2014, 11:39:33 PM
I've been wanting to try Fire Emblem, but there are some other games I want to rent before that...

I think my obsession with ACNL is mostly because I had Animal Crossing Wild World (For DS Lite) since 2006 and it was like, my most favorite game ever. It was just so magical and charming. So once I heard that there was going to be a new one with 10x the awesomeness, I was very excited! :dance:

I'm still very excited, even after a year... I just really love this game. It probably sounds childish, but it's pretty important to me. ::)

To be honest, the patriotism here gets annoying. When bin Laden was killed, people climbed flagpoles and sang the national anthem to celebrate his death. It's disgusting. Sure, he was a horrible person, but really? Have some decency.

The amount of patriotism in ignorance of America's less than humane activities is what bothers me most. We don't ever teach anything bad that America did in public schools. I had to learn from private study.

Blind devotion is dangerous. Loving your country is fine, but don't lord your invented superiority over other nations. Most people here can't even label a map of Europe. So depressing. My 8th grade history classmates didn't know what the English Channel was. There's nothing to brag about in being an ignorant bumpkin.

Let people get on with it I say. As long as they're not being intolerant of others and not pushing their beliefs on those around them, they can believe, worship or have pride in whatever they wish to. If it helps them get through the day then fair play to them. Hopefully it gives them the freedom to live happily and be good to other people and help them when they can.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on June 17, 2014, 09:04:45 PM
I don't have a problem with religions or people with varying belief systems. I'm a religious studies major after all. What I don't like are people who believe something without even attempting to think about it critically or learning about other ways. I examine issues from multiple angles to decide my opinion on something. All people should try their very best to stay informed so they don't run the world into the ground. I know some people are in social and economic positions that don't allow that, but if you have the ability to access information, you should.

Ignorance leads to intolerance and misunderstanding. And those lead to hatred. We don't need hatred.

Also, I don't even know what "try to convert" means. I share what I believe, as I believe I should do, but I see no feasible way I could make someone "convert." Why would I try? I'll just assume it means to threaten them with hell via bumper stickers, in which case, I'd be annoyed too.

I just find it a tendency of well-educated people. It's often socially acceptable to hate certain people under the pretense that they're ignorant, unfortunately. In reality, ignorance is only relative. No one can know everything, and no one can know everything that every human being knows.

But it's genuinely frustrating when I find a person that simply doesn't care about anything of importance.

It's not about this topic, it's about the way people have been making other topics. I've had to move like 3 video game topics from here to the video games board in the last week or so. So I'm going to assume that people just don't realize we have it.

I was never much of a 90s kid despite growing up in the 90s. i always looked for more cult and more "modern" tastes.

and by modern, i meant in the near-future. which certain anime/manga around early 2000s gave me. the 90s still gave me a sense of near-future modern vibe, but it finally caught on to being mainstream in the 2000s

I never had the channels that showed kids anime... I wish I watched more pokemon as a kid... I got yellow on release and had 1000s of the trading cards... but I never watched the show. Tried to watch it last year as a 20 year old and all I could think was "Hell, Ash is the worst freakin pokemon trainer ever!" And the over acting was terrible! (Thankfully pokemon origins was there to save the day)

But it took me going to canada and california to learn about all the other shows I was missing out on in England... I must say I got really into the yu gi oh card game for a while too... yeah after that point I was really bad for getting into anything that had collectibles - digimon figures and cards, beyblades more yugioh - thank god those days are long gone... they were expensive!

Okay, so back from the dead. Yesterday was awful. I apparently contracted some kind of adware on my computer. And I can't kill it. I've tried almost everything I can think of. Four different anti-virus and malware couldn't get rid of it. I can't find it anywhere in my computer. It look clean, but it's still messing up my browser. I don't want to have to wipe my system, so I'm kind of out of options.

Are you certain it's adware? Sometimes my browser acts up for no reason, but clearing my cache or just using a different browser for a while fixes it. I have a program called CCleaner, and it's awesome. It's fixed all kinds of things on my computer just by cleaning up cache, cookies, etc.

Also one of the things that caused my browser to act up was having too many anti-virus/malware programs installed at once. I was trying a few out and I hadn't deleted the ones I didn't like yet and it caused several problems... I would only have one anti-virus and one malware program at most. Although the program called Malwarebytes is great and it's usually all you need.

If you're certain it's adware and you can't fix it, you might have to take it in somewhere. :hmm:

Wait, I know an annoying adware that acts like a virus. Did you download Limewire or something? In any case google how to remove it. I got help like that along the lines of having to delete a system file that it installed on my computer...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on June 20, 2014, 02:46:01 PM
The weird thing is I didn't download anything at all. It just appeared randomly on my computer. It affects all browsers, and googling how to kill it offered no advice that helped. It's definitely adware. I have both CCleaner and Malwarebytes. I have an anti-virus too, and had all these things before it happened. I didn't download more anti-virus stuff until after the problem started. I generally take good care of my PC and never go to sketchy sites.

It's called OffersWizard, and I've encountered stuff like it before. But usually uninstalling from the control panel fixes it, however it's not in the control panel or anywhere else. Nothing can find it, yet it's there. My worst fear is that it's infiltrated my registry, in which case I'm screwed.

Basically, I think I'm going to need to take it in. It doesn't seem really harmful to my files, but it makes using the internet unbearable.

If yes, then I'd say you are human! :P

I'd like to say my knowledge of the phonetic alphabet stems from some kind of cool military service. Unfortunately, it simply comes from working in a call centre and having to spell out things to some of the dumbest specimens of humanity on this planet.

My mom works in call center. I know those feels, man.

I think I managed to spray it pretty well with Raid. But it was crawling underneath the dishwasher door and mysteriously disappeared. Whether it's dead or alive, I don't want it anywhere near anything having to do with the food I eat. *shivers*

So... 4 hours, 6 buses, 2 route detours, 2 closed bus stops and a 45 minute walk later and so concludes my journey home from London. We were in the club for a little over 2 hours... worth? hmmmm....

Getting home from London is such a pain when you are out past the last direct/semi-direct trains...

It is 6am and the sun is up and I am now crawling into bed. See you all in the evening!

Used to always be poached to be the stick boy, the kid who walks down the isle with that one, two , one two step (Dunno if it's the same everywhere else but yeah basically that kid. )

Weddings otherwise are an insane business. And all women in the family go bonkers during wedding times...

Post by: h_musick on June 22, 2014, 04:01:11 PM
So I want to know why...
I based a character off a friend. I wrote it to where they die close to the end. I think I did it that way cause I feel like they disappeared from my life sooo suddenly.
Well, this same person died recently. And... It really ****ing sucks.
On one hand I feel like I should maybe re write his character to be even more like him. But then at the same time it feels weird.
Looking back at his relationships with the other characters in the story though, I think I let too reality into the story anyway. I don't know.
Does this happen to you guys? And how did I not realise how closely my characters were based off people I knew.
psssshhh.... Maybe I could just turn the whole this into a character study. lol
*sigh*
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on June 22, 2014, 04:07:14 PM
That sounds terrible. Sorry that happened.  If you want to honour his memory or something along those lines you could make him assume the character more, but it may be just better to write him as you originally saw him. You could give a nod by changing their name maybe?

Characters are strange things to mess around with...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on June 23, 2014, 07:32:45 AM
Sorry to hear that... I know the feeling exactly, one of my friends from primary school passed away last year - I hadn't seen him for about 11 years but he was the one person who I really wanted to get back in contact with. Even when you haven't spoken to someone for a long time, it can still have a huge impact on how you feel. Do whatever you need to.


On another note I just swept my families entire patio after a pressure wash in the blistering heat... Screw physical exertion!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Patio... I wish I had a patio... Sounds fancy.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on June 23, 2014, 09:55:07 AM
A pressure Washer, is one of those contraptions that fires a jet of compressed water to clean things. The force it hit's the surface helps to break up the dirt so It's more effective. They are also great fun to spray someone with........unless it's a heated one, then not so much :P

Side note: House/apartment hunting is not very fun :(
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on June 23, 2014, 10:08:01 AM
These titles keep getting more and more ridiculous :P

Yeah that pretty much sums up a jet washer. It's rather fun tbh! But don't spray people too close... it hurts like hell...

And I am so glad I don't have to think about house hunting at the moment... it's so stressful. Is this for a permanent fixture or temporary?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on June 23, 2014, 10:12:28 AM
Hey, hey, the titles we earn here are sacred, I'm trying to climb the MR corporate ladder one rung at a time, one day I shall be the Tea and Coffee maker! :P

Temporary, only for the next couple of years. I get quite restless so I like to move around every so often :P
On the plus side I've seen a pretty sweet apartment which is really nice and the rent is pretty low.....turns out it's above a small music studio though so I'm sure that has something to do with it.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on June 23, 2014, 10:16:38 AM
Maybe if the sound-proofing isn't good. Just use it as an excuse to borrow the studio from time to time - that would be awesome!

I always thought that House hunting was the most stressful part of Uni so far... the work is nothing compared to having to deal with awful letting agents... But I think that Brighton just is rubbish for housing in general...

Well I wish you luck in your hunt good sir! I hope you find something you like.

And I mean who doesn't love equally spaced fridge magnets!?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on June 23, 2014, 10:27:44 AM
            Yeah, that's what I was thinking, although it's a small studio, so I don't think it would be too busy. I'm usually at work during the day anyway, so I doubt It'd be too bad for me. Haha, if I had any musical ability I probably would do. Maybe I could start a podcast :P

But yeah, the housing in Stoke isn't fantastic, I generally prefer to rent Privately, less hassle I find, only issue is you always have to pay a couple of months plus deposit in advance.

You could say that

On another note, Russia lost to Belgium 1-0.

I fooled myself into believing Alexander Kerzhakov could save us, but at least we're 3rd.

Hopefully we beat Algeria on the 26th.

Russia has a real chance of getting out. They're very capable of beating Algeria.

On another note, Japan is now losing. But at least Greece might get out.

Feghouli may pull a fast one on us though, but we should be able to beat them.

My Cup bracket has Russia advancing, so I certainly hope they do. They also want a good result before hosting in 2018.

Ever since Greece won Euro 2004, people have given them some nods. They should never be counted out.

I only stated caring about Japanese football after their women won the World Cup. In my opinion, Japan is one of the fastest growing football prospects out there.

Sorry I'm a little late coming back... got lost playing Endless Space...

I looked it up and geographers on Google seem a little undecided... But technically since England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland merged to form the UK, politically by law the UK has to be considered the country - one made up of united nations - as part of some policy in some world law something or other... However it is described as a country of countries and each nation can be represented by separate teams and groups at world events - sporting and sometimes political, so it falls into a bit of a grey area.

Can't say i'm all that into the football although I found it hilariously ironic that the English physio ended up injured :P It was really funny to see all the previously patriotic english supporters turn ever so apathetic after they were eliminated though.

Well, Northern Ireland. The Irish wouldn't like the lack of distinction.

Yeah, the women won one against the US. Huge game and moment for Japanese football and football in general. The US woman's team is arguably the best in the world, so the defeat came as a surprise.

Yeah, injury time penalty sent them through. Amazing stuff this Cup.

He's one of my favorites too. I also forgot Nagatomo. He's a quality player. On the Inter squad I believe.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Right? I can't wait to see who takes it home this year.

Nagatomo is pretty good and he's in Inter Milan last I checked and I almost forgot Uchida, he's a superb right back.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

My money is still on Brazil, and their road to the semis is entirely South American teams. Interesting for sure.

Yep, Inter Milan. Uchida doesn't get a lot of press, but he's a great player. Japan has a lot of growing to do, and even with being knocked out this time around, they still show a lot of potential.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Roshiro Byakko on June 24, 2014, 06:16:20 PM

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

The Brazilian side this time around is honestly a little weaker than what they usually put out. Chile decidedly lost to the Netherlands, but also beat Spain. It's toss up in that game, but Brazil is playing at home. That's the main reason I'm sticking with them.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on June 25, 2014, 11:27:24 PM
The documentary is called, "What if the Earth STOPS Spinning". As the title says, it talks about what happens to the Earth and human race if the Earth's rotation gradually slows down in 5 years.

It's really quite interesting to watch. I'd recommend it for anyone who wants to watch it, as it's onlu 45 minutes long.  :thumbsup:

If I recall correctly, The Day the Earth Stood Still doesn't actually have anything to do with the Earth stopping its rotation. It's about an alien causing all the technology on Earth to stop working as warning to humanity.

Funniest and wackiest part of the series, buuuuuut probably the worst part... frankly in season 2 I want to see someone who has the power to make those torpedoes that explode into rainbow colours like in the intro!

Speaking of powers and Hamatora and stuff... Just saw X-men: days of future past the other day and in that, super-speed seems just as OP as Nice and his super speed in Hamatora. Surely there should be a stornger power than speed!?

IN the case of the Flash. He's fast at EVERYTHING. (IE: Processing, running, reflexes.)

At uni there's a group of really good fighting gamers that I train with. Kind of lucked out finding such amazing people. Although it's not a real fighter, I'm best at Super Smash Bros Brawl. I'd say I'm semi-professional, having taken 3rd at a few large tournaments. I haven't played in a while, but when I'm training, I'm pretty good with Falco. I have a pocket Pit and Marth as well.

I have UMvC3. I'm rusty though. I was pretty good; Used Viewtiful Joe/ Dante/ Magneto.
Stopped playing cause I got tried of the rage mail I get for playing Joe.
One moment people think its gonna be an easy win then leave saying Joe is OP...>.>

Even made I a combo Video for Joe!

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on June 26, 2014, 07:33:31 PM
I knew a guy who used Joe. He wasn't very good, but seemed to think he was amazing at the game. He'd get so salty when my other friend trashed him (to be fair, my other friend is a legitimate pro). I love that game so much. Joe and Phoenix Wright are the most hilarious characters to beat people with. They get so rustled. XD

Nova is probably my favorite character; lots of tech, high tier, great tools and matchups. He's followed closely by Dr. Doom though. Gotta love that X-factor Level 3 infinite. And foot diving.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on June 26, 2014, 07:48:15 PM
I tried out a bucket head team. (Nova/Joe/Magneto)

It isnt that great. But Nova is pretty manly.
I find it funny when people get opened up by his slow 6H Overhead or his Falcon Kicks.

But dont you dare mock Joe!
He is disguised high tier material.

Has some dirty mix ups that rival Magneto's with the right assist. And one of the fastest overheads that doesnt look like an overhead!
Plus he can keep you lock downed with Charged Voomerangs Assist-less.

I could've sworn that I heard something scurrying around the house while we hid in the bathroom. It was priceless when we saw the doll had moved from the kitchen to the front of the hallway, my friend's dad looked like he was gonna faint! It was cool lighting the doll on fire though.

Well, I hid in the bathroom most of the night.( I would've preferred somewhere roomier) I heard something scuffling around the house was scared out of my mind. This continued for about 15 minutes before it just abruptly stopped.

Dead silence for the rest of the game. When it was over, the doll was moved from the kitchen to in front of the front door with it's head leaned against it.

Then I burned it in the desert near my home. That's the quick version of events.

Lies. If you dont believe them; then theres nothing to be afraid of.

I myself dont like occult-y practices.
I find it highly disturbing. A bluntly want nothing to do with it.
I'd probably sh!t myself if I had go in a haunted place alone.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Devil worshipping? :rofl: No, that's stretched quite a lot I think.

Relax. They're not occult type activities. They're just something to do, I personally think it's all mind games with a little bit of primitive fear mixed in, like Bloody Mary, I'll still never say her name in the dark 3 times though.

Oujii board, that's something I fear to death.

If the doll does "try to find you," you'd still not know if the explanation the game provided was correct. So you'll still be wondering afterward.

The idea is that you would fill the doll with rice, and the rice would move the doll to carry out your subconscious expectations, magnified through your lack of sight (like a blind seer) and fear.

Five Guys Fries are far from my favorite, but they make up for that in sheer quantity. I don't know about the UK stores, but in the Kansan Five Guys, they put the fry cup in the bottom of the paper sack then dump a shovel-full of fries into the sack. The fry-cup runneth over, and the paper sack is nearly at half fry capacity.

You can hear your arteries clog as you eat those fries, but there are so many fries.

Where to go, where to go....

I can honestly say I don't know. I live exactly on the other side of the country and only been to A-dam once...
I'd mainly look around the grachten. (I'd totally get you to say that out loud because it's hilarious to hear foreigners pronounce it. ;D)
people always ask me where to go when they visit Amsterdam. I should know by now....
Thats about the things I remember being good...
When we had Exchange with UK schools they'd generally get drunk and do nothing...

Yes and no. The field, past the home plate, is dipped towards the machines. The balls goes onto a conveyor belt and assorted into the pitching machines. However, the field is layered with mats (idk why =/) and the balls can bundle up in front of the net that covers the machines.

The batting cages take tokens and each token gives you 25 balls. I went five times for slow pitch, 3 times for "left handed pitcher" and 2 for "right handed pitcher."

"Left handed pitcher"
My first run was HORIBBLE . I had 7-8 contacts that were mostly fouls. 7-8 / 25
The machine was pitching high and on the outside (I'm a right handed batter), and each swing was too low.

My second run was a lot better. I started to make better contact and had more control of the ball placement. I would say 16-17 / 25

My third run I was comfortable with the timing, placement, and contact. 20-21 / 25

"Right handed pitcher" 
This pitching machine cause my left hand to form blisters. the pitchers were placed on the outside, but low and fast.

My forth run with the was horrible, too. The pitches had more power and were very difficult to control the placement. 8-9 / 25

My last run we good, but my left hand was starting to hurt. I was hitting the balls better, but struggles to place them where I wanted. 18-19 / 25

Now I got 4 Band-Aids on my left hand.   :push:

Call me a freak but...
I enjoy the pain of disinfectant. Its kinda like that feeling when your muscles are so sore it hurts to lift anything.
Or at least how I describe it as.

I had a shoulder infection (Dont ask how, idk.I was drunk when it happened.)
Then they had to disinfect the drains in my chest. I gotta say, have disinfected shoved in there burned like hell.
But once the dopamine kicks in its quite enjoyable.
You know what. I think I am messed up. D:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Well, that's often because of the dopamine and other hormonal pain killers released when you experience pain. It's why males tend to laugh at their injuries because of the 'good feel' from hormones being released (That and they're trying to cover up their pain  :sadbye:)

I can still appreciate a kid's show for what it is. Digimon is still a fun watch from time to time (when they don't keep repeating that inane digivolve sequence). I'm not looking for depth in Pokemon, of all shows. Indigo League is actually kind of charming though. It has cheesy, but still solid one-liners and whatnot. Rival Destinies' dialogue falls so flat in every regard, as if it were the writer's first attempt at humor or something.

Down in Brighton there is a 1960s american style diner called JB's that has TV's playing old Tom and Jerry cartoons on loop as you eat. Alongside the overall aesthetic of the place it's a pretty cool place to eat some good food with ridiculously big portions and just reminisce about old cartoons like tom and jerry and loony toons etc.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on July 05, 2014, 06:58:33 PM
Very likely. Once we get the EP recorded, we'll probably put it up on bandcamp and soundcloud and whatnot. I suppose it's a bit easier to maintain this group because it's only three members and all those members want to go into music as a career and are interested and invested in the music we're playing. I've been in groups where none of those things are the case and they mostly ended in a similar manner to yours.

I guess, they probably won't care...
Also, I just was lectured by the football expert in the house (my little brother) and he said that the Brazilians apparently are fans of the Dutchies... No idea why, although I would be able to understand it if they could actually beat the Germans.
Football is so confusing...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on July 08, 2014, 07:48:24 PM
The game today was just horribly depressing. I'm not a huge fan of the German team, and to see Brazil go down like that.... It's painful. I maintain that Brazil was playing at maybe 10% though. No heart, no drive, and missing two star players. Whoever comes out of the Argentina Netherlands game is definitely my team in the final. Though I'd prefer Argentina.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on July 08, 2014, 07:58:35 PM
You're the first person I've heard say that... most people I know didn't want a Brazil-Argentina final and with how things are standing want to see the first ever northern hemisphere final being held in the southern hemisphere. Before it was more of a "we route for the underdogs" type thing though. I don't really watch or care all that much though so that's just what I've been hearing rather than my personal views.

Personally, I don't like the idea of European teams facing off in South America. It's a national pride issue. A South American World Cup deserves a South American team in the final. It's like a World Cup hosted in France barring France from competing. The idea doesn't translate well to a lot of people, but that's how I feel.

You have a point, but it's more complicated than that. They have different hosts each year for a reason. Hosting the World Cup is an incredible honor, for both country and continent. When you're the hosts, you have an obligation to deliver a Cup your country and continent can be proud of. It's the World Cup, but each time only one part of the world can shine in the end.

Yeah, it's awkward - which is why I made the joke about the stadium being empty if its a holland germany final - but just because it's being held in a certain place does not mean the local teams deserve to be in the final over others. They aren't being barred from competing... they just lost!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on July 08, 2014, 08:57:36 PM
This is very difficult to understand if you don't really follow football or find yourself heavily invested in the World Cup. It's kind of the same reason I don't understand the Super Bowl.

When the World Cup comes to your country, you're in the spotlight. Your nation is at the center of the world for one month. Everyone is counting on you to win, to give your people a chance at glory. That's what it means to deserve a place in the final. And when your nation fails to get there, it's gutting. It feels unfair for the host to lose in their own country, especially like Brazil did. The World Cup is the biggest, most watched, most cared about sporting event, perhaps event period, in the entire world. Nothing matters more to as many people. So, some teams really do deserve it, need it, more than others. Germany? Sure, the German people will rejoice if they win, but in a World Cup about South America, where South America is the golden child, the star of the world meant to shine, doesn't it feel kind of wrong if a South American team doesn't even make it to the final? It's the reason why Ghana's loss in the quarterfinals last World Cup was so saddening. They were Africa's last hope in a World Cup about Africa.

I get it kinda... but I'm not emotionally invested in football so I can't really see it from any other perspective than: one team wins another loses and the winner therefore deserves to be there over the loser. (I know there are times when luck factors and teams just don't deserve a win but it's still all to do with the game being played rather than emotions). I never really saw hosting the event as a responsibility to you own fans, but it makes sense.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on July 08, 2014, 09:26:40 PM
I mean, the team that wins usually earned the win fair and square, but sometimes it simply feels unjust. Ultimately, it does come down to one winner and one loser, yet who those parties are means a great deal. I mean actual wars have been fought over football. People have died for the game.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_War

EDIT: Granted, the true causes of that war were deeply rooted economic and social issues, but football served as the catalyst.

It's all part of the human condition. We need to challenge others and constantly compete to validate our existence. Football is the greatest evidence of that. It's a profoundly human game, encompassing all that it means to be a part of something more.

Post by: NO1SY on July 08, 2014, 10:03:41 PM
I get the challenging others part, it's more how dedicated fans get (even in non-sporting things like manga and anime) that is strange to me, because as a fan you aren't the one competing, just observing. It's different from actually competing in the sport yourself - as a fan you are supporting your favourites and not competing against other fans. It's a pride for your home/favourite team that drives a persons support for them, but I don't really understand competition between fans themselves as that displays a certain close-mindedness.

But all in all sports is a great way for countries to exist competitively without going to war.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on July 09, 2014, 12:40:44 AM
I'd venture to say that if you don't understand why fans act that way, it's something you just don't relate to. And that's perfectly fine. Personally, I don't get too excited externally (e.i.- jumping, screaming, arguing with other fans), but I do feel things inside. It's heartbreaking when you emotionally invest yourself in a team of players--learning about them, watching them play, cheering them along--only to see them lose at the very end. If you asked me how to explain why fans act the way they do, I think I'd respond by saying it's only human for them to do so. People naturally do it. I can't explain all the reasons why, perhaps a few, but the fact remains that it happens. It's not something you understand so much as you feel.

I must admit most of my beef against football is never being picked to play in a team when I was a kick and getting murdered by my brother in Fifa to the point of tears...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Happens to the best of us, friend. :P

I remember being picked near the bottom in gym as well when I was a kid. Nobody wants the short, scrawny kid with glasses after all. However, I'm not a terrible athlete, so I often surprised my classmates, which amused me to no end. I think it was that I tried harder than the other kids, so sometimes I'd actually beat "jock-ish" types. And let me tell you, that pissed them off. XD

But I used to hate sports. A lot. That was back in high school though, when I was an angsty little twat all bitter about not being popular. I reflexively hated the jocks for being well-liked and whatnot, when really they weren't that bad. And neither were the sports they played (except American football, bleh). As the years went by, I grew out of being a twat and started forming opinions based on something's actual merit. I realized that I really liked some sports, like football, cycling, basketball, etc. When you stop thinking in that stupid teenager mindset we all had as kids, things become a lot more enjoyable.

I love Football, but the problem is I absolutely suck when it comes to playing!!! Often my friends would be the Captains in PE, so I'd be one of the first picks. It would be like "Sorry man, it's okay not to pick me, just because we're friends" :P

I can hit a mean volley though, oddly enough thats my one skill in football!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on July 09, 2014, 08:43:39 PM
Haha. Football was actually one of my best sports, along with basketball. I didn't have the height for basketball, but my shot wasn't bad. Sadly, height matters a little more. Now, with football, if I had practiced regularly I might have been able to play for my high school or college team. I have a bit of natural ability there. My jump is pretty high and my pace isn't terrible, but my tackling is my best skill. The very first time I ever played I was slide tackling the ball without fouling and actually managing to win the ball. Surprised even me. My passing isn't bad either, as I can bend a football a fair amount. But alas, I haven't been on a pitch in ages.

I used to play soccer a lot with friends. I still have little interest in it tbh. Most people where I live are athletic to some extent, including most of my friends, so I've never really been bitter towards people for being good at sports. It's something I respect, but also something that kind of bores me. I have a feeling I'd enjoy Baseball's mathematical side, though.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on July 09, 2014, 09:34:20 PM
I'm glad you brought up baseball's statistical side. I used to play baseball as my childhood sport, but I never liked watching it. Baseball is a profoundly boring sport to watch, but has arguably the most interesting statistics of any sport. I love baseball from a stats viewpoint. I even have a game called Out of the Park Baseball which focuses entirely upon managing a baseball team using nothing but your knowledge of strategy and statistics. You don't actually play the games, you simulate them and hope your strategy is good enough to rake in the wins. Very interesting stuff when you're really getting into how statistics translate into runs. There's a statistic depth to baseball a lot of people don't realize. I love studying the records and leaderboards, spotting correlations between certain stats and wins, basically I just love stats. Hate math, but love statistics. Too very different things.

@MissCurro
a few years back, I had a shirt with very small holes but not causing transparency. It was idea to wear when hot, but it had a slight problems with the sun. It caused small little circular sunburns on my chest, stomach, and sides. At first, I thought it was chicken pocks. I was worried because I never had chicken pocks before, and I knew it was bad for older folks (IDK what's the age is to worry about chicken pocks, I was 19 at the time). I went to my doctor and he explained that they were small sunburns.  :o

It depends on the degree of the sunburn(s). If you use lotion that's best for your skin type on a daily basis, it helps the healing process and recovers faster. I use sensitive moisturizer that's meant for the face on my sunburns. It helps me a lot. ^^

Hey-ho, sorry it's been long since I posted. Turns out Dongles aren't all that great, I have limited time on the thing and it is as frustrating as blazes.

So anyways, also here to update people on just what's happened with my cancer. Turns out that while the chemo was working, somehow new ones were growing in the leg. So yeah, I'm off the chemo now and on a new treatment that's like chemo but the side effects are far less worse, only side effects are prickly fingers and toes, if they get too bad, they'll have to take me off that treatment and try another one.

This is actually going to take the same amount of time as it did with the chemo. I have to go through 6-9 cycles which have three weeks in between. So yeah, I'll only be able to start it as well in 5 days (They have to get it as this type of treatment is rare and unusual) so I'm in Aberdeen for until the end of the week or the end of next week.

P.S. Reason I haven't been posting that much is because Dongles are freaking unreliable and are very frustrating.

Post by: NO1SY on July 15, 2014, 11:36:59 AM
For me it wasn't ever a big thing... I was not enjoying eating meat at the time (plus my family is kosher so there is a limit to what I can eat at home anyway) so one day I just up and went "I'm just not gonna eat it anymore", and that was that. I had no interest either way but then just as easily as I stopped I was out at a restaurant looking at the 3 vegetarian burger options on the menu and went "today is the day I start eating meat again". I don't regret turning veggie nor feel like I was missing out, but I have a lot more options now. And I never got ill or malnourished because of it - though in 3 years of going to the gym 3-4 times a week and doing weights I still only managed to tone and strengthen rather than bulk up... - but I never had problems, I ate a lot more other sources of protein, which at the time I found more enjoyable to eat (often because it required being more creative to make it taste good). I still don't cook meat for myself though.

I disagree.
A diet should be built on what you want your body to look like or what activity your planning on pursuing.
You could get plenty of nutrition from being a straight vegetarian. Except maybe a few things like Omega 3s.
My only grip with vegetarians is they do it pretty stupidly and end up all weak and frail.

Maybe I'm just biased but all my nutrition views come from my dad. He is a nutrition hobbiest.
He was also a boxer and had to train himself when everyone doubted him.
He even the North Dakota amateur tournament and was the only guy in the gym good enough to spar with a boxer for his Canadian Champion fight.

Post by: Syntax on July 15, 2014, 11:48:56 AM
All I'll say it go do some research on nutrition. It's not the clear cut, set in stone science people believe it is. Most of what we've believed about nutrition for decades is actually being challenged by modern science. I'm not saying there aren't different ways to achieve a certain kind of body, but the question is actually what's the most healthy? For example, saturated fat is generally considered bad under the modern system, and of course, it is in massive quantities, like anything else. However, please explain why the Inuit peoples of Canada have lived on high fat diets for hundreds of years while maintaining one the highest levels of longevity on the planet. There's more to this than we're led to believe, and I think it has to do with how our species evolved. This is a legitimate theory, with books written on the subject and endorsements from prominent scientists.

I too should do some research.
But from what I remember seal fat gives the Inuit what they need to survive in harsh climate.
I forget what nutrients they get from it. I think it was mostly vitamin D for them to help absorb calcium.
Plus having fat stored up is a great way to have as an energy reserve.
Hardcore marathon people do that for those long hauls. I remember some dude swam across the Atlantic Ocean. He dieted on bananas to gain the energy for that.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beno%C3%AEt_Lecomte ~ Pretty sure it was this dude.
Or I could be thinking of a different long distance swimmer altogether.

The point being that some foods are better suited to the environment and your activity.
And the diet should supplement that. I'm not even saying fats are evil, just saying that you should plan your diets based on what you want.
Also sciences change all the time. I'll keep an open mind about it. I'm not doubting anything.
If history taught me anything. 30-40 years ago scientist or medicine didnt give alternative medicines a benefit of a doubt and wrote the whole thing off. And now modern medicine is incorporating some alternative medicines as a norm.

The basis behind the theory I'm talking about is primarily evolution. It basically assumes that the best nutrition for our bodies in general is what we evolved to eat. That means the stuff we ate when we were hunter gatherers. It's a relatively new theory, but it makes a lot of sense if you think about it. I know I felt a whole lot better after I stopped eating carbs and processed foods. Lean meats, nut, berries, some fruits and vegetables. And I feel great. Basically, carbs are the enemy because we didn't evolve to eat them. Agriculture brought them to us.

Just a standard vanilla with white icing and green lettering. My mom doesn't like any other kinds of cake, as much as I wanted to make German chocolate.

Quick recipe for fungus in a fridge:

1. You take a cucumber.
2. You pit the cucumber in the fridge.
3. The fridge gets too could because it's winter -> the cucumber freezes.
4. To remove the ice in the fridge you turn it off -> cucumber defreezes.
5. You try to pick up the cucumber and it almost explodes.
6. Don't clean properly, wait a few days.
7. Enjoy your never leaving fridge fungus.

Chocolate-rasberry-Cream cake, I'm gonna Miss you.....

Okay guys, really random question but I'm trying to write some character descriptions:
I have a male and female, both around 16, and they live in a very poor land and have been starving a long time, only eating often enough to keep themselves alive.
How much would they weigh?

I used to do it with a group of several people on a forum type site. We had a pretty elaborate world set up, and I have to say, I was pretty proud of what we did. I miss those days sometimes. Roleplaying forges some nice friendships and lets you get to know people pretty well.

Poor Lingyin...  :sadbye: I've only watched he first episode though, so I barely know her character <.< Why is Cecelia 2nd? I thought she's one of the unpopular ones? Must be that British vibe...

Role play did the same to me back on a MLP forum I joined. Although it did cause a few arguments... I guess that's unavoidable though.

Surprising lack of love for Houki, but Charlotte is my as well after all. I don't know if IS will ever have an ending with closure though...

I never roleplayed MLP, though I knew people who did. I mostly just read some fanfiction, and tried to write one once. Never did get it right though. RP is usually an entirely original experience for me. I like to make up a world to RP in and kind of have arcs, recurring characters, and an ever-growing history.

Ginger, how about Komoe Tsukuyomi? Technically, she 40 years old and the anime shows her dinking beer and smoking. How about it?

Your missing out.

For long standing series yeah there is some low points at times.
But in terms on animated you HAVE to watch the first movie and New Challenger.
Rising I'd argue for you to watch the whole thing but if you must. Grab the Takamura fight and flash back arc.

Cause the flash back side story is telling of Kamogawa and Nekota past.
The single most manly side story ever.

You know what. If you havent seen Ippo I highly suggest you watch it.
Top tier anime in sports anime and a solid choice in anime in general.

I just don't think the ending can be topped. It was so emotional and it felt like closure. Miyata never felt like his true rival, I felt like Sendo really was in the first series. That's why the ending was so good.

I would say at least watch the lead-up, training, and fight between Takamura Vs. Bryan Hawk. That's an emotional fight and arguably the best fight Takamura has every had to this date.

I liked it for the first few episodes but I felt it almost tried to get a little too serious for a bit. It would be impossible to take this series seriously. I didn't like any of the girls expect for Yuuojji and Utage either. I got loads of laughs from it though.

D-Frag was another recent anime that had a similar sense of humor expect it was ten times the show Noucome was and even funnier. It was similar since it made a big deal out of small things in school. D-Frag had a hilarious cast of side characters and just all around great humor. Anyone who missed it two seasons ago should check it out if you liked Noucome!

Also Takao best girl for that show...screw Roka.

Yeah still need to watch the new episode of SAO. I was a bit disappointed with the last episode though to be honest. The pacing was really bad in that episode. Ah well, will probably catch it tomorrow me thinks. I'm assuming this episode is Kirito being dumped into the GGO world, so should pick up.

Haven't watched the latest Fairy Tail either, but having read the manga and knowing what happens after the Grand Magic Games, I'm not too concerned. I found the ending of the arc a little weak. Ah well, shall still get around to seeing it but not one of priorities.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on July 19, 2014, 08:07:38 PM
It's good but the animation is very flawed. It's more noticeable now then ever. The static background characters were super obvious in the last episode. The slightly new art style is good, Erza and Wendy look much better. The fights so far haven't been that amazing though. It's like 20 seconds of really great action then 2  minute of other characters reacting. Erza vs. Minerva vs. Kagura was disappointing. It started out REALLY awesome then the action slowly died down. I think they'll pick it up though, I have faith in them. Fairy Tail always makes up for those little fights with a kick ass main battle.

The first OP Masayume Chasing was also amazing.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on July 19, 2014, 09:09:55 PM
To be fair to them, the fights have largely stuck to how they played out in the manga. Problem is they're panel to panel, so what works in a Manga doesn't translate always to a fluid animation, particularly in the length of the battle. Most of them were really short, but instead of coming up with some innovative or cool action sequences, they instead used cutaways and reaction shots.

But yeah I'm not so hyped for the finale of this arc. I was largely bored with Natsu and the others exploits in the castle, which dragged on for too long for me.
Spoiler
The Dragon fights a bit anti climatic to me. Also I have a major problem with how no one could touch the Dragons who weren't slayers. Erza's that much of a monster she should of been able to do something, even if it wasn't killing them

I've always wondered; did animators simply get better at drawing over time, or did the styles just change? Or a combination of both? I greatly prefer the art of today. With the exception of moeblob creatures.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on July 21, 2014, 12:18:31 PM
I wanna say both. Anime gained gain more support over the years, which led to more funding and more people to work on animation. Also, you got different studios competing against one another. And each time one studio does something spectacular, the other studios got to plan and think how to become better.  :o

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on July 21, 2014, 12:21:43 PM
The animators don't do the drawing for the most part. And it's just new techniques. Before it was all drawn animation, like the way old cartoons were animated. Now its all done mostly on computers so the animation (provided the budget is spent well) tends to be much smoother and look better.

In the comparison between those two pics though, that's just a change in art style, and I think that just has to do with the general consensus on aesthetics at the moment. Anime artwork is moving away from the big curved eyes of dragon ball and the like and towards sharper more detailed eyes, and again, new techniques let people pull this off better nowadays.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

And yeah sorry before I was a bit unclear, I know they still draw for 2D animation, but new tech has basically updated the animation process. It's really cool to see what people can achieve when they combine the traditional methods with the new ones though - like the animation in Redline.

Hey while we are talking about cartoons has anyone here seen/like My Life As a Teenage Robot?

It was an amazing and criminal underrated series by Nick. I never cared for the show that much when I was a kid and I completely forgot about it for years until I was playing 867-5309 and I remembered, wasn't there a robot girl named Jenny? I went back and watched it and found cartoon gold. The art style in that series is incredible and it's just all around good. The characters are really great, the voice acting is top tier (Janice Kawaye's performance as Jenny has to be the greatest female voice acting role I've EVER seen). It's sad the series was so underrated because it's so great.

Also it had the best theme song of all Nick shows. Yes it even beat the super mega cheesy Dan Phantom theme (yo, Danny Phantom he was just 14 when his parent's build a very strange machine, it was design to view a world unseen...that song...)

I am too scared to search for that. Especially after the time what I thought was a parody of My Life As a Teenage Robot...was not. Oh how very very wrong I was. Oh God...I can still remember the love guns made of rock. It is an image that can not be soon forgotten. Oh God.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on July 22, 2014, 09:13:53 PM
 I never watched Teenage Robot or Jenny? Sure wish I did.

Nick toons had a lot of gold too. And the catchy theme songs man.  I was shocked that my dad knew the power puff girls theme song. It was so weird but understandeable...

But I worry that maybe I'm just being a bitter whippersnapper? Maybe the toons today will be considered legendary to the current audience? I dunno... I still like to think they had it better back in the day.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on July 22, 2014, 09:34:58 PM
Obtuse, rubber goose, green moose, guava juice, giant snake, birthday cake, large fry, chocolate shake!

You know I said what I thought of cartoons in that other thread so I don't want to repeat myself but I think part of it is a matter of what we watched as kids. I mean it's obvious cartoons (at least Nicktoons) have no balls today and there is a massive drop in quality and clever humour from before and they all suck. I think the current audience will think the shows they watch today are legendary because of sentimental attachment. I cringe at the thought of some one saying "Hey wasn't Fanboy & Chum Chum such a great series?" in a few years but you know. They certainly would be valued as much as something like the first three seasons of Sponge Bob which is something people of any age and any time can like but you know.

It could be like a 38 year old dude saying cartoons where better in the 80s and those damn 90s and early 2000s shows just don't match up but I still think cartoons have clearly dropped in quality. Nick's last good show was Mr. Meaty. They haven't had anything good since then. That I've seen.

Let's not even talk about how bad their live actions shows are now. Drake & Josh, Ned's Declassified, Keetan & Kall all gold (hell I even enjoyed Zoey 101 though I don't think that one will hold up). Drake & Josh is loaded with genius jokes and is easily one of my top 10 TV series ever counting anime. The live action stuff they have now...ugh.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on July 22, 2014, 10:12:24 PM
I'm a bit fine with that if it's put that way. I guess it's someone's duty to make endless reruns to keep those shows alive!

I've missed a lot though. I definitely want to binge watch stuff. Maybe December for me will be an ultimate binge watch of all the classic shows and movies I never got a chance to check out...

I want to see this power rangers movie just to reminisce of a time when I was 4 and jumping around like a loon!

I think the problem with modern cartoons is that they lack the depth and subtle adult themes and phrases that make people appreciate older cartoons even when they grow up. Kids nowadays are so much more exposed to the world and so I think cartoons are afraid to put these things in now, for fear of the kids actually realising what they are doing far earlier on.

On the plus side we have shounen anime which is just so much better!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on July 23, 2014, 07:28:30 AM
True that

But I feel no, shounen is also going to the dogs. Effeminate main characters everywhere, harems, questionable ages of girls and other issues I'm ragequitting on shounen too. I feel like it's a limited and dying genre. I'd rather go for seinen now because they're more story driven.

TBH, I learned way more on my job then I have being schooled.
Well...I guess being socially awkward its easier to adapt when you gotta get the cash. :D

Plus now I know more insight towards the community.
Far more helpful than going to any event/church as well.

Then set 3 cards in the s/t zone and end my turn.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

You know what? I would be sooo down for an anime base, fan created Yu-Gi-Oh battle! That would be interest! Oh my gosh!  :heart: It would be tricky, though, when cards are clearly too OP and how a fair battle would be planned over the internet. =/

I place one monster face down in defensive mode and set one card in s/t zone. I end my turn.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on July 26, 2014, 04:59:06 PM
Yugioh isnt to bad.
I know some of the cards are bs but.

IF you make trap heavy deck and/or know how to shut down strategies it starts to be a more enjoyable game.
I mean you literally start mining salt from your opponent.  :D

Which is why I like the Ghostrick archetype so much. :3
Ex: Ghostrick Neko ;One of my favourite Ghostricks.
Ghostricks are usually played by setting cards and gaining advantage from the following turn by monster effects.
Played with heavy backrow it starts to get frustration to play against when one trap can ruin your whole turn.
With Neko on the field and another Ghostrick it forces your opponent not to play unless he gets rid of her.

Cause he can no longer activate the monster's effects or synchro/xyz summon. Giving you that advantage to continue to set up your backrow OR getting rid of annoying unmanly monsters that would normally give you trouble.
Thus making your opponent rage quit when he cant find an answer to her. <3


Oh wait what are we doing? I got a little carried away...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on July 26, 2014, 05:42:32 PM
I remember my competitive Yu-Gi-Oh days. I ran several different decks, and most of the time I did pretty well. I stopped playing before the game went crazy though, so my metagame knowledge is from back when Elemental Heroes were still popular.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on July 26, 2014, 05:55:45 PM
I love me some E-heroes. Along with some Masked Heroes.

I dont play much. I just like playing trolling milling decks in yugioh.
Other times I just watch this dude.

I used to have Yu-Gi-Oh games on my DS, those were really fun (and a lot cheaper than buying tons of cards >.>) but I would have really liked it if you could interact with the characters beyond dueling (I mean, Alexis had a chest that a porn star could only dream of) *I joke I joke*

I'd do anything to have those games again... Why did I have to sell them??! >.<
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on July 26, 2014, 07:27:55 PM
Way back when, my style was removing cards from play. Unfortunately, I had stopped playing Yu-Gi-Oh because a lot of kids at my age, at the time, just stopped playing. I couldn't find much people to dual with, and I just stopped spending money on new card.

I'm think of coming back to the game, but my gosh! I left before sychro summoning was added. And now I'm seeing about this XYZ summoning... WAAAAAAA?!

 :ohmy:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on July 26, 2014, 07:41:56 PM
Yeah, I would never try to get back into the game again. It's like when I left competitive Pokemon. The game has just changed so much that I can't keep up.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: GingerStark on July 26, 2014, 07:55:51 PM
I know that feel >.> It's why I sticked with the games, they don't change the rules which makes it easier to follow. And what is the point in having forbidden cards?? If you're not allowed to use them, then why have them available? <.<
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on July 26, 2014, 08:23:25 PM
I usually just go on a site called the "Dueling Network"
Has all the cards in its database. Except for any extremely new and up coming cards.
Only problem is you gonna KNOW your rulings with the utmost certainty.
Or know how to BS really good too. I kinda like to do that too. :blush:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Syntax on July 26, 2014, 09:00:46 PM
I don't know if the rules have changed since I played. Probably have. I used to know the rules really well, but it's been like four years since I played.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on July 26, 2014, 09:11:24 PM
Idk. I know a while back ago monster priority was removed from the game.
Ex: Monsters with spell speed 1 effs could use their effects before being destroyed .
Play Dark Armed Dragon. Opponent responds with Bottemless Trap Hole.
Dark Armed actives its effect calling priority.
Resolves it's effect first then continues back to resolving Bottomless.

Idk if that created a chain link or not.
All I know it was total bs in the game. And am glad its gone for good now.
Other then that its more or less the same.

Anyone watching RWBY?

Back the topic,

There will be few changes soon. Also Mortal Combat topic will retire in 7 days from Today. The topic has become little too big and I'm having problems with it when I do backups. Also It sometimes cover the recent topics and other important topics get buried under. That will be the last role playing topic we have here. (must be the first one too). I want members to focus more on Drawing , writing and publishing (Anthology).

A lot of what I buy online is stuff that I can't find anywhere else (like specific clothing items, which is what I'm shopping for now), or it's cheaper online, which is actually the case with a lot of my art supplies.
Besides, with Amazon two-day shipping, you don't have to wait very long! :thumbsup:

TBH I dont go much on steam so I dont know if there was anything good.

But most of my gaming time has been invaded by PoE/Diablo 3 or Trading card games.

There are some free VNs and some cheap ones I believe. But the selection is fairly small. I buy games there all the time. It's an addiction. The sales are too good.

I notice a lot of the receptionists at banks have big breasts too, while wearing low t-shirts.

Idk where to look either I mean should stare at their cleavage?
Or should I look at their face and pretend I'm focusing?
OR should look away and pretend to not notice they have a revealing shirt or huge assets?

Haha the receptionists I was originally referring to are the dragons that sit behind the desks at doctors surgeries. I wasn't trying to be sexist, but there is a stereotype that is very negatively viewed and all of the people I have had to work with this week fit it perfectly... a couple of them actually quit this week because a new supervisor has been hired who wants to change a few things to modernise the practice's admin and make things more efficient, and they couldn't deal with things changing from the way they have been for 25 freakin' years! I mean how stuck in your ways can you be! I had no sympathy for them when they were telling me how they felt driven out of the job.

Wiki says its a visual novel type of story. W/e that means.

Probably how the Blazblue/ Persona 4 arena was set up.
But its in Japanese so you'd have to fine a script or subs for it to understand.

Post by: NO1SY on July 31, 2014, 01:06:04 PM
Depends which parts of their bodies are cybernetic!

And I don't like this EA subscription thing that they have just announced... I already have to pay $5 a month if I wanna play online on PS4 or even play games on Xbox one... Now to get EA games to play on them I have to pay another $5 a month or $30 for the year?

They are comparing it to Netflix, as it's a good deal as by paying for a years subscription you have access to several games totalling about $300 shelf value at them moment and will be higher in future. But the problem is that you are paying subscription for only one company. I wouldn't mind if I was paying a subscription to Sony for the service to have access to loads of games from loads of companies, but this is EA only so I'd essentially be subscribing to play 1 game only - NHL 15! Which means after 2 years my subscription has paid off the game for EA and then to keep playing I'd have to pay even more!? why would I do that if I could pick up a game by one time purchase for $50 or 60? Also if other developers or companies latch on to the idea, to have access to the games I want to play may have to be paying $200 a year in subscriptions to have access to them! You'd also lose out on sales and deals where you can purchase games for a fraction of the original price and you won't be able to wait for general price drops anymore either.

Sony have said they won't allow EA to use the PS4 for this service because "it complicates the services offered already" meaning "it competes with playstation plus and the playstation store...", which in my mind is fair enough. And as I don't care about Titanfall or Battlefield, the only thing I'll even remotely be missing out on at the moment is my NHL, but EA may pull their games from shop shelves in the future if this gets off the ground, limiting the pool of games I have access to without a subscription. It just worries me that more companies may follow. Microsoft have jumped on this obviously as it falls so perfectly in line with their crusade to get rid of game sharing and the used game market...

That was 7 hours ago. But yeah, I've dealt with people today, mainly work.

On the first day of a new month, I have to summit my new musical works, form the previous month, to my manager. She take them, tell me what's good and bad, asks how's my kid doing, gives me 2000 photocopier papers, and says goodbye and will call me if anything specific is needed.

So a new comic book store recently opened near to where I work. After walking past it a few times, I decided to pop in. Whilst browsing a group came in probably about 16 or 17 years old. I heard one of them calling for her friend as they looked at manga and was called her "Sarah-chan" repeatedly.

I thought this was really odd, since I'm in the UK and not Japan and these people were clearly not Japanese either. It sounded dumb to me honestly. So is this a thing? Do any of you use japanese honorifics in real life when referring to your friends?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on August 03, 2014, 04:20:33 PM
I've referred to a few of my friends as (Friend)-chan before... But jokingly, and through message, not public conversation.
I do think it's rather silly to repeatedly use honorifics in actual conversation if you're outside of Japan/not Japanese. I think it definitely pushes that Weeaboo stereotype...

I'm fine with it on occasion, though.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on August 03, 2014, 04:29:53 PM
It's funny when I see it written down, like on here for example, it doesn't bother me at all. It was just hearing it in real life was so strange, I'd never heard it in casual conversation before.

Maybe it's because I don't hang around a Manga loving crowd that I don't hear all the vernacular  :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on August 03, 2014, 04:32:06 PM
I don't use any Japanese words/honorifics in normal conversation or in general unless I am referring to a character like Isuke-Sama or Kona-Chan.

@FreezingCicada: I don't know if I'd be able to process that. If someone said that seriously in real conversation, I would probably just stop and stare...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Blackbird on August 03, 2014, 04:45:42 PM
I nicknamed my dog Chibi-chan, because it's small and excessively cute. But other than that how could you use the honorifics in real life in a different language.

Might also have to do with the fact that I don't have anyone IRL to talk about manga with. And when something, anything is dubbed or subbed in dutch, they completely ommit the honorifics. Doesn't make sense sometimes...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Echo_River on August 03, 2014, 05:01:22 PM
I tried to use -chan in my speech to see how it'd sound like. I stopped fast. It's awkward since it's not part of the culture.

And yeah except on pets (Shiro-kuuuuuun!) it doesn't flow well in the English language.

Started watching The Place Promised to Us in Our Early Days. What I watched was great, but the dub was pretty awful, so I looked for the sub. It was in parts with only two parts still up. Had I known that I wouldn't have bothered watching the first two parts, but instead I got 20 minutes into it just to find out that the other parts had been taken off. What a buzzkill. Probably serves me right I guess.

To be perfectly honest. No lie.
I havent came across any feminists or fem-nazis here.

Or any horror stories from wommenz.
Most of my stories involve me being oblivious at something they said or accidentally bumping into them or brushing against them trying to sneak by.



...Oh wait I have one actually! I think I should have yelled at her or something.
Cause this 30+ egg woman I worked with. (Short and wide. Like an egg) Kept being overly friendly with me.
I mean she would touch my shoulder and stuff...Creepy stuff.
One time me and the assistant manager were talking about what needs to get down and what not.
Then out of no where she walks by and runs her hand over my shoulder and walks off.

Then the a.manager just gave a "wtf" look and started cracking jokes about her after that.

As far I know, there good girls. They don't swear, hit, or harm people. But the smallest thing today (to me that is) set one of the girls off, which caused the other girls to join in and start making voodoo dolls *exaggerating*.

ooooh, I am. I'm pretty good with kids. It helps that I have one, and these girls are not as dependable as mine right now.

Hey guys, just mentioning while I can that I'm at the hospital. Not getting Radiotherapy yet, but apparently they have to got through a lot of planning and scanning to aim right before they start as it's apparently not the most accurate or precise so have to hope they hit where it'll do most good. But it's looking good. The person whose in charge of my chemo treatment thinks my over swollen leg has decreased, but is probably going to add more to my chemo to make sure it works. So yeah, all scary, but all hopeful. Right now on a lot stronger pain killers, so harder to read and I'm hallucinating again, so might not be around often even when I get a dongle (I'm somehow borrowing my Ma's boyfriend's internet) as I just can't focus on reading... somehow I can write though?

It's not just these kind of Otaku's (who I hate to admit it, but they kinda are the stereotype people think of when people discover you enjoy manga), but people in general who choose a single narrow interest and essentially evolve their personality and Social interactions around that thing, I find very one dimensional and honestly, a bit annoying to be around.

Well not post apocalyptic, more desert island kinda deal ala Lost and Code Geass, so there is the cut off from humanity/absence of Society theme there.

Anyways, this is what I come up with for the synopsis so far...........

Spoiler

                 In the Summer of 2014, a group of Manga and Anime fans gathered in Honolulu, Hawaii for the first ever MRX (Manga Raiders Expo). After a successful and fun Convention, the attendee's boarded a plane and set off on their long flight to Portland, Oregon. This flight came to be known as the infamous "Flight HA25 Mystery". Two hours after take off, contact was lost with the plane and was never re-established. It was determined, the plane had gone down over the Pacific Ocean and was lost at sea. Official records say that out of the 263 people on board, there were no survivors.

            Those records were wrong. The plane did not crash into the Ocean, in fact it landed on a large and uninhabited Island. No one knew how, since all aboard the plane woke up on the Island itself. They were scattered, confused and above all, unsure how they even survived.

            However, this is only the beginning. From miraculously surviving the Plane Crash, strange noises at night and bizarre and ancient ruins hidden deep on the island, the Survivors soon realise they may have stumbled onto something more mysterious than they could of possibly imagined.....

I was thinking of having people pick from traits they want and pick from a positive and Negative list i.e. for positives stuff like a Good cook or Climber, but from the Negative they are timid or short sighted, stuff like that.

Depending on where their grown it could have an effect on their taste.
But there probably isnt a difference in product. Unless one has more quality ingredients or how its made and stored/transferred.

Also searching wikipedia says Thailand and Malaysian train monkeys to get the coconuts for them...

Couple....Doesnt sound sweet.
Sorry Bro mang; You know who you are!

If your wondering how to improve on art then I still stay adamant about my advice.
You just have to motivate yourself to do it and think objectively.

Stay positive. I do so by talking to myself like Bob Ross or if I fudge up anatomy I say "DAYYUUUMMMM!!! What happened there?!"
People will think your crazy if they catch you but...w/e.

Naaaa~ My lessons where violin, music theory, and composition. However, the cats did like to sit and fur up my winter coats during the winter season.  ;D

It's brightly sunny with clouds over here. 26 C temperature, with the humidity making it feel like you're in a preheated oven.

I grew up in a musical family, so I always had a piano to mash my fingers on. But I didn't take any lessons for anything until I started violin when I was five (only lasted a year). So 13 years of lessons, 8 teachers: 1 for violin, 1 for viola, 3 for piano, 2 for guitar, 1 for jazz improvisation.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

@Vio It's a rainbow cloud! No wait, the sun's just reflecting off water droplets that are in a wavy pattern...Not sure. What's it called?

Oh right, violin. Did you teach yourself piano?
I almost read that like "Took the cats fur for my winter coats"...

It finally got hot. But it turned humid. Sunny skies eh...

@Papis Viola too? That's bigger than a violin, right?

That kind of rainbow is called a "Circumhorizontal arc", but it's also know as a "Fire Rainbow". What a good name for a rainbow~  ;D

@Papis Haha. Say, are string instruments labeled like C or Bb instruments?
Nope. Those labels have to do with transposing instruments. Within the woodwind and brass families, there are similar fingerings for instruments that differ in size and pitch. They transpose the notation for the instruments so that the notation always corresponds with the fingerings instead of the pitch. That way it's easier to switch instruments if the need arises. Stringed instruments, on the other hand, are mostly on different clefs and the players don't have to switch instruments as much as, say, a trumpet player might.

Well in DA, you can buy, win, or apply to adopt someone's character that they created. If you were able to obtain the character,  you own that character now and have the rights to use it in anyway. However, there are some artists that have terms to the adoption, and it not that bad. Some just ask that you give credit to them when using the adopted character.

Here's the first adopted character I've bought.  ;D She had no official name, so I'll have to think of one. :hmm:

Been to see a couple of improv plays and a lot of stand up comedy. Seen Russel Kane with my brother as well as a charity gig with John Bishop as the compare, Jason Byrne, Jason Mansford and several other really good comics. Lots of fun aand still have a "one man lord of the rings" show to go to tomorrow!

@Papis Oh I see. That's how it is XD

They are on treble clef if that's what you mean. If you're talking about size having to do with pitch, that isn't the case with stringed instruments. The bodies are just resonators (they make the sound of the bow against the string louder), whereas brass and wind instruments actually have air going through making the sound. So smaller violins =/= higher pitch. It just equals less resonance (there are other factors, though, like quality of materials).

^That one's even better than the first.

That was made from a different artist. The first adoption cost me 100 points= $1 USD. So, it was a good buy me ^^. 

Adoption? Like, proper adoption???

Well, it depends on the terms and agreements on purchasing the adoptee. For example:

Another adoption to my growing family~^^ ;D

(http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/234/e/0/female_humanoid_adoptable_6_by_shirope_d7w6pdx_by_ipop99-d7w8ky6.png)
Design - Shirope
http://shirope.deviantart.com/ (http://shirope.deviantart.com/)

These are the rules I'll have to follow for this character:

RULES

You CAN'T resell the design. You can trade it though.

You can put the picture of your new character wherever you want, but don't remove my signature. Don't claim the design as your own either.

You can change the design.

You’re free to turn it into an animal or whatever as long as you follow the previous rule.

Can you like redraw the adopt in different situations (with all proper credit of course) ?  Or do you use already drawn pictures as a sword of badge?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on August 22, 2014, 05:43:15 PM
Again, it depends on the agreement. Almost all the adoptees I purchase I can claim as my own. However, I can't claim the design of the original purchase.

For example:

Even though I bought the adoptee, I can't say this is my design; for I didn't draw this.
(http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/234/e/0/female_humanoid_adoptable_6_by_shirope_d7w6pdx_by_ipop99-d7w8ky6.png)

But once I draw this character again in a different way, then I can say the design is mine. ^^ I'll still give credit to the artists for the opportunity of purchasing the characters. ;D

Yup, one man (I think from Canada), no props or costumes,  running through all 3 extended cut versions of the films in 60 mins. He does body motions, singing and convincing impressions, semi parodying the plots and characters.He basically uses all of the key sayings and scenes from the films to show the story and pokes fun at some different parts. It was a real surprise to me just how enjoyable and entertaining it was. My only issue is that he didnt use the "not the beard" line from the second film...

Anyways he does the starwars trilogy (IV V and VI) and breaking bad also.

If I'd try that, I would be too afraid to relax. In the past, I fell asleep while boiling water and woke up 2 hours later. When I checked the pot, it was all scorched and had a copper-like colour on the bottom part.

Speaking of falling asleep, It's time for me to go to sleep.  :sleep:

Goodnight!

For me, there is often a question of whether or not the dream is a dream. Like, I entertain the possibility, but I'm afraid to assume it is a dream, because I don't want to deny the reality I'm in.

 I just don't put two and two together. Outside of the vehicle, you could ask me, if I was driving on street A then turned right on street B, on the way back from that venture, which way I would turn to get back to street A, I would know to turn left. But in the vehicle, I end up thinking I'm supposed to turn right and end up having to change two lanes right before the intersection. I can handle the car well, but I am the worst person I know with directions.

Depends on how much time you have to prep.

If its a couple days then take cold showers.
Start by having the water hit your back then work your way cooler by turning the temperature down.
Light exercises before/ during also helps as well as flexing.

Really its not a big deal. The worst thing is just the shock.

I live up north where it could go to -30 Celsius with the wind chill.
I know what cold feels like.  ;D
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on August 24, 2014, 05:33:12 PM
Just do it! It's cold, but nothing more than jumping in a plunge pool or stepping into a freezing shower. It only lasts for a second. My advice is to avoid hitting your head with tons of ice...

for example, this is how not to do it...

I'm sure you could go to your local supermarket/ grocery store and buy a bag of ice cheaply.
Then dump ice in bucket of cold water and wait 2 minutes or untill you think its cold enough.

Get a book you don't mind losing. When you're filming, pretend to read the book. Have someone drop the bucket on you. Don't respond, flinch, or anything. Simply turn the page on the book nonchalantly.

get some water proof make-up and give yourself a clown face. then get some non water proof make-up to put over the clown make-up so you look like yourself again. then have them dump the water on you, washing away what looks to be regular you to reveal the creepy clown beneath. slowly raise a bike horn, honk it, then cut to black.

the chicken itself is rather simple. just heat plus some basic seasonings. rosemary, majoram, sage, nutmeg, the basics. but i am doing a whole thing around it. homemade mashed potatoes, homemade stuffing, french cut greenbeans. would have made rolls and pie too but that would have required me to have started cooking yesterday, which wasn't really a possibility thanks to work.

or you have a magical seasoning called vegeta, so you don't need anything else except maybe pepper. But don't know if it's available in your countries.

Draw-to-Adopt contest on DA - basically, you draw the character you want to adopt. If you're the winner, you get the adopted character and right/licenses for that character.

MR Chibis - I just stops because of other interest. However, I do want to get back to it.

Sketches from my stories - just messing around with settings and architectural designs.

A sort of light novel story. It's a crime based one where the MC starts off doing honest work but then results to criminal work when things get bad for him...but he was also pushed towards the underground stuff.

I find it hard smiling all the time. I tried it once, and my face hurt for the rest of the night.

That's really hard... Too many options! I'll have to go through some more songs and see if I can find something that really stands out. :hmm:

Sorta random, but I've been curious and have been wondering everyone's opinions on this:
People tend to get annoyed at weak characters, especially if they're female it seems. But do you find it annoying when every character is strong? Would you prefer it that way, or do you think there should be a weak character, especially if they grow stronger over time? Do you find weak female characters more annoying than male, or vice versa, or does their gender not affect your opinion? Do you not find weak characters annoying at all?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on September 05, 2014, 02:39:40 PM
I don't get annoyed with weak characters, regardless of gender. I get annoyed at characters who have the ability to do something but they choose not to. Instead, they blame other characters for the mistakes that annoying character (the ones I point out) caused.  :glare:

Here's a fun question for the writers! What theme song would you have for your main story?

Hmmm, I guess the first theme I'd use for my  Heavy Rayne story would be Jitterbug by Ellegarden, since it feels very shonen-ish to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzUEhfeI0cA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzUEhfeI0cA)

Sorta random, but I've been curious and have been wondering everyone's opinions on this:
People tend to get annoyed at weak characters, especially if they're female it seems. But do you find it annoying when every character is strong? Would you prefer it that way, or do you think there should be a weak character, especially if they grow stronger over time? Do you find weak female characters more annoying than male, or vice versa, or does their gender not affect your opinion? Do you not find weak characters annoying at all?

I don't really think gender matters a whole lot for me. I think it depends on the role they play in the story in terms of strength. An example of a weak character that comes to mind is Kenny from Beyblade. He isn't a fighter, but he gathers intel on the opponents and acts as an advisor to the team. So as long as their role makes sense It's okay. It's when they're supposed to be a fighter and they are, well not a very good one. Then they become dead weight and a hinderance to the other cast around them really. 
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on September 05, 2014, 03:56:49 PM
@Vio:
Oh yeah, Christmas is crazy too. You'll often see the Christmas stuff mixed in with the Halloween stuff in October here.

But mostly it's like:
October 31st 11:59PM: Woooo spooky, Halloween! Buy lots of candy and stuff!
November 1st 12:00AM: JUST HEAR THOSE SLEIGH BELLS RINGLING JING JING JINGLIN TOO~

@Vacant: Interesting, interesting. Role really is pretty important too. :hmm:
It's so hard to find balance though. I'm trying to balance out my main characters some more since they're all fairly physically/mentally strong, but I don't want to make anyone annoyingly weak either...

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on September 05, 2014, 04:17:59 PM
One thing I try to do is for every strength I give a character, I try to give them a weakness too.

So I guess some fairly obvious examples are if someone is highly intelligent, then I wouldn't make them not very athletic. Or if someone excels in perilous situations could be shy in everyday life.

My guess for the difference in numbers might come from topics only Mods. and Admins. can post on? IDK.  :noidea:

Twin Peaks is David Lynch's take on the Soap Opera. It's an odd, creepy kind of soap opera with some of the most nightmarish sequences I've ever witnessed. It's also pretty funny sometimes.

Film noir came with talkies. So no silent noir films that I know of.

Hey Cheeku, you friendly stranger that I've never talked to before, good to see your back  :clapping:

Here's a question to everyone, I'm currently writing a fight scene and I've never done them before. Any tips?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on September 10, 2014, 05:12:15 PM
What kind of fight scene? Does it involve super duper special powers? Or just like a bar fight over who's football team is better? :P

I guess what helps me to write a battle scene is to break it down as if it is a worked pro wrestling match. We have the high spots (The big moves or cool counters) that pop the reader and we have the finish too. Then you need to logically and smoothly link these spots together, while taking the characters themselves into account.
 
By that I mean their fighting style and their motives. Is this a Protagonist whose best friend has been killed before them? If so, they'd be fuelled by anger, making direct wild attacks and showing no mercy. Is this a hired killer? Who remains calm and collected, analysing the foe for weak points?

Another thing I find that helps me think of action sequences is to listen to some music, either the orchestral epic pieces or Rock music works best for me. I almost make an Amv in my head about the fight, then flesh it out. In fact, nearly every fight I've ever written has some song attached to it.

I hope that helps my friend :D   
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on September 10, 2014, 05:15:33 PM
Oh oh, one more thing.

Pacing is important in a battle. I'd suggest when you're done writing it, to read it. Leave it for a day, then come back and read the couple of chapters previous and then the battle in full too. That way you get a better idea of how it flows in the story.

In the actual fight sequence itself Pacing is important. You want a nice tempo that flows logically, there can be a lull in the fighting while the combatants throw insults or explain something critical, just so long as it doesn't drag on too much.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on September 10, 2014, 08:08:11 PM
first you need to set a tone for the fight. i usually do this by finding a song with the right beat. want something slow and full of powerful movements? something fast and punchy? find a beat to keep your rhythm to.

next: understand your participants, and their starting locations. if you have a solid grasp of your characters, how they think, and how they fight, then the rest is easy. just imagine where they start and the physical world around them, and let logic dictate the rest. Is guy 1 brash and impulsive? then he'll make the first move. is guy 2 big and tough or small and slight? then he'll either block, dodge, launch into a counter attack, etc.

then you just do that for the rest of the right.

that's the Coryn Method of Fight Scenes at least.

i'm taking an art class right now (skipped out freshman year, now it's back for my soul)

I need to find a piece of artwork by a so-called "master artist" that relies heavily on value. so that i may trace it then recreate it via newspaper collage. *gags*

any thoughts?

Yeaup. I'm only glad for Naruto though. It's ending honestly, and that's the one that's hitting me hard.

Gintama's reign of terror on brain cells is ending huh. Well it's a perpetual sort of manga, I'm surprised it's getting ended, but I guess that happens.

Will no other manga reach Conan/Hajime no Ippo level of perpetual serialization? Hehe

Luckily I don't really want anything big or extravagant, so a million would get me pretty far. ::)

I would set some aside for personal spending, I would share some with family (Especially my mom. She's always been working hard for us, and it would be important to me to make sure she is living comfortably.), I would probably donate some, and then I would save the rest. :thumbsup:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

You know, I always wonder how writers do fanservice. Do they write it with a straight face? Do they giggle like children? Do they go super serious?

"Here here"
"Excellent. Now let's discuss where we should insert this nude scene before lunch starts"

Post by: legomaestro on September 14, 2014, 05:52:38 PM
Wait wait! Titles that are clearly coming with the packaging of 'ecchi here' are no issue. HOTD is how to pull it off well.

But a shounen story where there's a clear story? It's easy to see where things get over the top and start getting in the way of the story.

Cage of Eden for example. It wasn't the most dark survival tale out there, but it did bring a harsh reality to the situation. Then suddenly there were more fleshwounds than actual people dying, and more scenes of the women bathing by the river side. I was like 'wut?' and the next thing I knew... Cancelled.

Not sure about Hitman Reborn, but I bet it did something of the same too towards its end
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Pavo on September 14, 2014, 06:17:34 PM
reborn had no fanservice in it, maybe 2 characters could be considered to be for fanservice. For me it had quite good ending and was very satisfied with final fights.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on September 14, 2014, 06:25:39 PM
It didn't did it. Well the final boss was defeated in such a strange way... I really did enjoy that manga, and didn't have too many hard feelings apart from how abrupt it seemed.

Beelzebub. I wish that one was serialized longer. It skipped over so many things, and that was a fun ride from the word go.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Pavo on September 14, 2014, 06:46:17 PM
Well I like how he got so many powers and weapons and then in the end one that he had from the start ended up being strongest with boost from his resolve.

I also feel that beelzebub lacked some things but didn't feel like it's anything special. Only Tojou was the character that I loved
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on September 14, 2014, 06:57:32 PM
Yeah that was good, but you get why I called that abrupt right? Remember the fight with the angel like dude? That arc was loooong. X burner was used a bunch of times, and things were pretty tense. Loved the whole alternate reality mumbo jumbo stuff too hehe.

If there's something KHR had was style. That character art was so good. Action was sweet too.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on September 14, 2014, 07:41:11 PM
Reborn and Shaman king for me are the 2 really well ended shounen mangas I can think of off the top of my head.

The KHR artwork I thought was inconsistent at times but looked awesome when it mattered. But the story was just so awesome! It literally packed in every concept you could think of and it worked so well! It is without a doubt my favourite shounen and I always completely forgive its slow start :)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Pavo on September 14, 2014, 07:51:28 PM
I didn't expect from reborn to be some action fantasy what not manga as I started reading it. I enjoyed the humor and found it quite enjoyable.
Then Mukura appeared and it started turning into awesome manga that it became at the end.

Good day to you two!

Ginger uni will be fun, just remember you get out what you put in! Don't be nervous though, put yourself out there and just be friendly and everything works out. People are much more grown up at uni and pretty accepting of everything so you are sure to find people that you get on with. What are you gonna study???

I like the name Meadow :) where'd you come up with that Vio? And yeah, spoke to my Grnadparents out at Lake Winnipeg last night and they said that now the weather is cooling down they are packing up and moving to their apartment in the city. They'll probably end up down in  Palm Springs in California for the winter though... they are like migrating birds :P

I barely know much about action scenes myself, I just recently dabbled about how to write a good Harem Anime cast  :hmm:

I've done it a couple of times, though I never play online with strangers  ::) Aside from the glitched combat, it's just the same! Even more, you can share a tech tree! One person does this, other does that, boom, you got both!

And that's why I avoid combat  :glare: Nothing better than going for a cultural victory  :dance: Just hit me up when you want a game  :D

I was playing Civ V earlier today. Started a Babylonian campaign but I had crap luck with Barbarians in my starting area so it's not going well. Probably gonna have to retire... it's also a huuuuuuge time sink and I should really get some writing done...

I also didn't buy the game on steam, I got it from the Apple App store when I bought my Macbook I can launch my game from steam but I'm not sure how the multiplayer works. I like the sound of a co-op vs AI game though.

How can you not be a fan of peanut butter?? I'll eat it plain, or with chocolate chips, or honey, or marshmallow, or pretzels, or bananas, or a peanut butter and banana sandwich, or a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, or... Well, the possibilities are endless. I won't bother naming them all. ::)

Just the main software, though the DLC is 50% off. I figured no harm done if the main game is a low price  :hmm:

I wanna learn kenjutsu or kendo but there are no dojos here so I am practising on my own (lol) and working out...

Have you never read Bleach? I mean 12 volumes isn't bad... that probably encompasses about the amount of the story you want to read anyways... after that... well there's no way out after about 400 chapters!

Jk jk pickem up, for a tenner what do you have to lose apart from about 4 drinks on freshers week!

Yeah. Actually theres a Facebook group of smash players near here.

So I might check it out once the game comes out.
From what I heard its basically just a bunch of dudes playing smash bros with some booze.

I'll probably end up using Link or Captain Falcon. :D

These are all interesting opinions, but have you considered:

Mega Man.

And while the final version of the game may have a final matchup roster set against the blue bomber, just think:

Mega Man.

Yes. It's downright amazing. I got New Leaf on June 10th 2013 and I've played every single day since, except for a 2-3 day period when my 3DS died and I couldn't find the charger.
I got AC: Wild World in 2006, but I didn't play that one as often, since you couldn't do as much, but it was still fun and it's how I fell in love with AC.

I haven't bothered with it besides playing around a bit. Turns out the simplified process they describe can get straight into writing code. Pretty much thinking with this and Renpy which I was using for the MR VN I should just go ahead and take some courses in programming so I'm not so clueless.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

RPG making. That'd be something pretty nice to get into.

Some of these softwares are friendly though. You don't need to get too deep into the programming and just copy paste the appropriate codes. Plenty of people out there to help out for the truly desperate parts.  AI is still beyond me too haha.

It's times like these you realize how amazing Pokemon is. (And people make their own indie versions of that)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Pavo on September 19, 2014, 06:24:23 PM
Well I know how to program things and was doing some simpler AI for a game. Making games these days is mostly like lego said, just copying other code and integrating it in your own. At least when it comes to smaller indie games.

There are these horrific tiny insects that became an infestation one time at the university. Gives me goosebumps every time I remember them. They're small and really black, and they sort of well... piss on you. And cause an ugly rash for a while...

The "daddy long legs" we have here are actually a kind of spider. I looked up crane flies and they look like what are known as damsel flies here and they are perfectly harmless. I find them in the shower all the time and just kill 'em with the shower head.

I do feel bad about the Bill Gates thing. I mean, I'd rather not fund the deliberate extinction of any species. And what if we find out later that they do have a purpose?

Trenches were first truly utilised during the Crimean war, though they saw widespread use in the American Civil War. They were made infamous during WWI due to appealing conditions that infantry were forced to cope with. Eventually the British invention of the tank and American production of it allowed the rendering of trench warfare to be obsolete.

Well thats only 3-4 Hours daily of labs with maybe 20-30 mins lectures a day.
Sounds completely reasonable to me.

When you work full time its pretty easy to see how thats pretty lax.
Or at least thats my point of view. :D

I either enjoy reading my own writing and nobody else does.

Or I hate my own writing and everyone else likes it.

Take my newest idea for example, 14 year old girl becomes immortal, has twins who just so happen to be the children of a God and Satan; who aren't all we believe them to be and then they have powers and try to live a normal life in a very OUTRAGEOUS version of our Earth as we know it.

Sounds outlandish for sure. Something Terry Pratchet would like? I'm not good with 'sensitive' stories like that yet but sure wish I could write whatever the hell I'd like to write.

I don't have a problem with the ideas, and just reading is no hassle. Reading to correct. Finding the best way to make a sentence work? Going through a 60,000 words  draft that was mostly written in a single day? Cut me some slack bro.

Just Biomedical Researcher at the moment. My project is in the Virology side of things but I'm more interested in how bacteria and viruses can cause cancer. But my course also gives me pathways into pharmacology and pharmaceutical research as well which could be cool.

Piano. I'm in performance level now, so I have to choose a Bach piece. If I played a prelude and fugue in the previous grades, I would've have had to put up with it now, man...

Ugh. I'm trying to create a speedpaint, and every time I try to open my video editor, it crashes. Even if I can get it open, the minute I try to edit something, it crashes.
I need a new video editor.

So am I the only one who dislikes extended family social gatherings, I.e. weddings and such? 

It's like gathering together every stranger on Facebook who Happens to share a mutual friend with you and being asked to mingle. In fact that scenario would be better because, a.) They are more likely to be of a similar age and share similar interests. And b.) You could also pull someone there as they are less likely to be a distant cousin or something.

Cooking's so fun especially if you are cooking for someone else. The only TV channel I watch is the food network (and whatever channel Jamie's 15 minute meals is on...)

Really like Jamie Oliver, and that show, I hate waiting a long time for food to cook so meals I can make quickly are great! Also his look awesome too so they are pretty impressive to serve to people.

My tip for cooking is "don't go in blind or wing it"... cooking is almost a science so it rarely ever works if you just guess...

I'm a terrible cook too. T.T But I got a new indoor grill and I've succeeded in making good paninis and sandwiches with it. So, time to learn other thingies!

I always try a recipe the way they write it first, then tweak it to my taste later.

The best way to learn is definitely cooking shows! My personal favorite is Good Eats, cause it teaches you a lot about the science of food too. Plus, it's funny. ::)

             Plenty of cookbooks have good ideas to. I'm not talking the fancy ones that enlist the help of half the vegetation known to man to enrich a pasta dish. I mean the ones that are nice and simple. Look out for ones that have simple, quick, easy or budget in the title. They give ideas for everyday meals and plenty of new things to try.
             Also, if you're just cooking for yourself, have fun with it and experiment. You might surprise yourself what new dishes and flavours you can encounter.

Oh yeah, my mom told me the cookbook that helped her the most is "The Joy of Cooking."
I haven't read it all myself, but it's supposed to be great for beginners and experts alike. Apparently it has a little bit of everything, targeted at home-cooking specifically. ^-^

I am finishing up my Medical Office Administrative Assistant certificate.

So...I am studying to be a receptionist of sorts...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on September 28, 2014, 05:03:58 PM
Oh nice! In my year off and in my holidays I worked as a receptionist at a GP practice. I hope there is more work in medical administration and management over there than there is here... freakin' NHS cutbacks made that choice basically infeasible for me... But anyways its a good job to go back to...

I'm sure you will be more than just a glorified receptionist though. The stuff the secretaries and admin staff do is pretty impressive. And if you have a certificate you'd be able to work in hospitals and other healthcare businesses right? That's pretty set up for life!

We have 2 apprentices at the surgery training for entry into Medical management and secretarial work. I had to train one of them when she started which was awkward because I was only on the job for about 6 months... and she was someone I went to secondary school with and was in my art class... so it was weird teaching her stuff.

Nope.
I know myself and countless other cooking noobs that watch Chopped and end up diving straight into meals.

Though then again I dont wing stuff unless its cooking eggs or pancakes.
That reminds me though. I gotta try baked eggs in tomato sauce and hot sauce. Thats sounds delicious.
Or maybe just make a spicy keish....

I have 2 more papers to read for this week! Just 2 more! Then I can do whatever I like until my reading list gets extended! Which hopefully will mean I get some writing done (aside from reviews...)

I'm actually having to miss 2 house parties in the next few weeks for various reasons... so I'll be pretty excited to have one. Usually I like keeping things low key, but it's good to go nuts every once in a while.

It will also act as a kinda housewarming for this place. Moved in a couple of weeks ago but the place needed a lot of work, which is now slowly being done. So Halloween can be a celebration of this house actually finally being worth the £85pppw we are paying for it!

My friend played Outlast. He did not like it and said it was full of cheap scares. Hence, I'm open to giving it a try and seeing what's out there.

And it's cool. Actually, my boyfriend and I have picked the first two games we are reviewing for the month. I guess we'll do a poll and see what people want next after that.

Your reviews are in depth though. XD Mine are...well, I'm just starting out.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on October 06, 2014, 04:18:53 PM
Everyone has their own style... tbh though I half stole mine from Vacant... Shout out to Vacant!!! You set out predefined questions you look to answer in yours, which is good for keeping reviews concise :)

I watch several Youtubers that do anime reviews and I like the kind of speech style review (I was originally intending to start up my own channel for them) where you can get a lot of personality in there. These reviews that you see are actually a lot shorter than they start out as... I kinda have to remember that people don't really want to read pages and pages :P

Really proud of some of them though and it's helping a bit with my own writing. I don't often review things I hate, in fact at the moment with the Fall season I am literally giving 1st impressions of everything... which is nuts... moreover most of the time people only watch or read what they enjoy, and I am the same, so most of what I do full reviews on will be shows that I really like. It's just fun sometimes to go wild when you watch that one show that makes you go "REALLY!?"

I'm just trying to catch up with the new releases... I had to take a break over the weekend to go see my family and there was like an Anime explosion!... aaaaaand then I got back to things last night and was like "WOW i'm behind...". So I'm trying to focus and putting everything else to the side... gaming... getting new music... learning songs... my actual work :P

Eh, I try to be tolerant of that. But when people say that it's one of the greatest and most developed stories in the world, I get a bit eyerolly.

Steven Universe is a show on Cartoon Network by an artist who worked on Adventure Time. It's about three empowered women who control crystal gems on their bodies while they teach and take care of a young boy who is the son of a former "Gem" who now has a crystal gem on his belly.

Sex sells period. Doesnt matter what gender.
Plus people for the most part have to work to keep their figures. IE: Exercise, Activity.

I mean when I work out. I'm not doing it to impress womenz, I'm doing it so I dont hurt myself and do my job fast and effectively. Abdominal muscles are for stability, not to show off!
Stupid turkey boxes and lifting 30-45 lb+ boxes in cramp spaces.../Rant

@FreezingCicada- Trust me, I have it beaten in my mind that sex sells. Just saying, different body shapes can be sexy too. Oi. But whatevers.

I don't exercise to impress anyone either. It helps me think while I'm stressed out with exams.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Austadophilus on October 10, 2014, 11:44:21 AM
I'll tell you about it then.

Between radical feminism on one end to girls dulling their creativity and intelligence just to get ahead on looks on the other, I've been feeling kinda down about defending women lately. I strongly believe in being treated with the same respect men get every day, but for every girl I see who tries to better herself, there's stupidity in the world that just snuffs it out.

Hell, there's even a huge petition to Boycott American women online because apparently marrying us means subjecting men to girls who "get fat, don't want children, take all of your money, and will leave you once they get what they want".

And this is how some people in this country see us. It's terrible.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on October 10, 2014, 11:57:15 AM
It does make it hard to have faith in people in general now-a-days.

But I think that there are enough people that are sensible and clever enough that you can surround yourself with and be good friends with, so that you don't have to worry about the stupid ones.

And hopefully there are enough clever people active in the world of politics and activism so that we don't have to worry about any of those kind of ideas actually becoming an imposing problem.

At the moment I feel it's very possible (and probably irresponsible but... eh...) to just laugh it all off as people that don't really pay too much attention to what they are actually suggesting or implying. Often it's rather comical.

I read this earlier today which just pretty much sums it up... http://9gag.com/gag/aNo0Rnr
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on October 10, 2014, 03:35:25 PM
I have never been convinced of anything by a blog or protest sign or bumper sticker or meme or stinging one-liners or anything else representing a disembodied philosophy that I disagree with (maybe books). I have, however, been convinced of things by friends willing to speak with me about issues individually, openly, logically, and calmly, all of which are unfortunately rare these days. Articles and things can conjure those types of discussions, but they are often full of hyperbole, generalization, circular reasoning, harsh wording, and seem to all operate under the assumption that correlation does imply causation. All of this does little but offend and cause the same qualities to arise in any counterarguments. This is why I aim to speak with people individually on things and change opinions that way.

Unfortunately, try as I might, I'm either too socially anxious to bring things up or participate in discussions or ineloquent to the point of major embarrassment. Or wrong. There's that. Point is: when you lose faith in humanity, you might stop trying to convince humanity and simply try to convince humans. And you might find yourself more open-minded and respectful of others opinions in the end, too, as those others will find themselves.

I blame the Science Division.

I promise that my division has absolutely no cloning projects going on.

I mean there were, but I was the only test subject, and all that material was wiped out anyways when we purged the place a few months back.


(on a non related note, DOTS still exists. we should get back to that at some point. maybe after October is over, and I've finished my other secret project)

All I've eaten today is a Toblerone cooky... I am making veg for dinner and doing body weight training tonight for sure... I already feel the atrophy of all the useful parts of my body...

Slowly but surely getting a headache as I try to power through my introduction for my project... did you know that citation software costs roughly $250 minimum!? What the hell is that!? I'd rather do it manually than pay that much... even though I love to get these kind of things so that I can be lazy...

Finally managed to sit down and watch some anime for personal enjoyment earlier today. It feels good to do that after forcing myself to watch for 1st impressions. But I'm happy that my list of shows that I can enjoy this season is a little larger as a result :)

So looking forward to it.

In any case either The Science Division made the clones or Lorenx typed so fast she traveled some seconds into the future.

Clones are obviously more plausible

Manager dude thinks some forever alone people come in and stealth buy them since he claims he hasnt seen anyone buy them yet...

Hope its not true...Cause their missing out on the awesomeness of pumpkin pie.

Video games to alter minds and affect human social activity and practices; and becomes a way of expressing yourself and closing yourself off from the outside world - but I wouldn't blame them for psychotic tendencies, just drugs and things of that nature which screw you over for life.

I'm a gamer for life btw, so don't say anything about not knowing what I'm talking about - I've experienced all of the above in one way or another; friends did drugs, not friends anymore. THEN I transcended beyond the point of being a mere gamer into being a 'meta-gamer' also known as becoming outrageous and then decided to develop my skills in other fields like drawing and writing instead of being a Master on SC2, or in Gold on LoL.

Whooo.

And right now I'm just lurking a thread for a file dump. >_>

If you want a good pick me up is doing light body weight exercises to get the blood flowing.

Are you trying to reach some sort of exercise goal, Freezing? Just curious.
Me? Idk what you mean by that.
If you mean my goal is to preach its a good idea to further understand anatomy through exercise then yes.
Thats what my goal is. :thumbsup:


But if you mean me personally. Nah, not really. I once tired to impress someone by getting stronger and being like an "alpha male" at my work. But that didnt quite work out.
Now I just exercise for the fun of it and maybe try to get stronger overall.

Call me a masochistic if you want. But there is no better feeling then having sore muscles from a good work out.

I'm waiting till the winter to roll in to start running again.
Cause right now I've gained some body fat. But I've been increasing my strength with a 30lbs dumbbell.
I dont usually increase the weight till I feel like I could do the exercise extremely strict.

And no I dont want to lose the weight to impress people!
I already get the looks from wommen...Or atleast I think; I'm pretty oblivious.
I just feel better being more lighter on my feet.

Well, there's nothing wrong with working on your body and taking pride in yourself for doing that. it just means you care. It's weird when people look at you funny for going the extra mile for stuff like that. XD You don't need to come up with a reason for why you do it.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on October 14, 2014, 11:51:25 PM
I agree.
Only thing I cant stand is dudes who think they're all that.
Or think they're tough and could do anything.

One of my co-workers is like that. Talks bs about me cause he heard my dad and his brother are tough guys and wonders why I'm not like that. Or like I dont know anything about training or proper form and acts surprised when I do proper strict lifting techniques all day at work. >_>;

Personally, If was stupid I'd have fought him a long time ago.
But like most bullies I've encountered, I end up seeing something that makes me pity them and dismiss any rage I've had to them and end up doing more productive things with my time.

EDIT: Anyways rant aside.
I've got that file dump now. Time for sleep.

I'm planning on doing all the work myself, even tho lately I've been thinking that having a co-writer would be beneficial. With my trust issues and my pride, working with someone on my projects isn't an option.

Yep. You writers need to get moving so I can do the storyboards.  ;)

I'm not the writer for this project... Roshiro and Whitecrow were meant to be. But everyone is very busy at the moment... If push comes to shove, and no one else can work on it I will try to find time.

Trust is important, it's important to open up to the possibility. Sometimes it just takes finding the right person though. But I can appreciate that as a creator, you have a specific artistic vision that you want fulfilled.

Thinking about it is the worst possible thing to do when you're writing a story.

Just swan dive where you want to swan dive, and you'll worry about what awaits you once it hits you... that's a terrible explanation but I thought it sounded cool. (I'm bad at telling people how to write... since writing just comes naturally to me).

^ legit advice is legit.

Honestly, it just doesn't work out. Developing a story until it's tip top shape? It's better to fail and complain about not enough preparation than going around in circle. Again I call it: Development hell


Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Robin Rain on October 15, 2014, 06:49:33 PM
Well anyways, although I don't have the main plots yet, but I've created the story's worlds in which they will happen in. The back history isn't completely finished for either of them, however there is enough to go on in order to come up with the plots. I just haven't had any ideas that feel like they would be good enough...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on October 15, 2014, 06:54:27 PM
yeah, I'd say think for about 30 seconds about where a good jumping on point would be and go. Write for about an hour, just bullet point if necessary and you'll make a skeleton of the plot, or at least part of it. Worst case scenario, you don't like it and toss it away, but I guarantee you learn a lot from it and get a good idea where you want to take it.

I actually already have the first chapter for each of them thought out, I just need to figure out where the story goes from there.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Lovus Eternius on October 15, 2014, 07:04:35 PM
I stand by my word.

Making the world and being like "Oh I got this all figured out," then going to write the story isn't going to work out. You'll get bored pretty fast. The characters are the most important part about each story. If you got them figured out, then just start writing.

You can figure out all the boring and elaborate designing later, when it's actually relevant to the story in that moment.

Then when you get to the end of the story you just go back and edit it, several times.

And if you've got the first chapter 'all figured out' and need to know where it goes from there, then just start thinking of scenarios, pick out the best one and go with that idea while tweaking it on the way.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on October 15, 2014, 07:07:29 PM
I'm cowriting a novel with someone and he had the genius idea of bullet pointing every instance of every chapter.

....

....

It was a really bad idea.

Really bad. The boredom literally made my head ache.

There are some things you plan and some things you just have to let your characters surprise you with. Stephen King and Dean Koontz live by this philosophy in writing and I keep on trying to remind myself that really, that's the best way to go.

My WIP folders tend to be the ones with more than one notepad (character names, details, background info e.t.c)

If you lived in a mega-city, which then is blown up by someone and you were given a super weapon, would you use that weapon to get revenge or to prevent future tragedies from occurring?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Lumaria on October 15, 2014, 08:31:01 PM
I"m not sure i like the question. Why would i gain a super weapon? There has to be more to the question for me to choose one or the other.

I personally would choose to protect the city Its hard to know who did what they did. But in this case, my form of revenge would be just getting caught and put a stop to him.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Lovus Eternius on October 15, 2014, 08:32:13 PM
I would just senselessly destroy the world, driven insane by the ignorance of the world towards the destruction of an entire megacity - and then everyone would know the pain of having nothing left... falling to darkness, depravity, and despair.

Yeah it's a vague question that honestly has more answers than the given two I just wanted to see how people answer. As for why you would be given one... it's there to tempt you into using it, I'm not sure how else to say that.  :-\

If you destroy the world, and kill everyone - you're making sure you're getting the revenge on the person.

You'd be preventing the world from being destroyed, depending on whether or not it's a moon-laser and if you are bald.

You have to be more specific Ginger.

Firstly: Positive shut-off? Where you just say 'nope.' and watch anime and you have no thoughts swirling in your head and you're all good and you're so positively shut off that time passes until it's done and that's all folks, no fuss.

Or... a Negative shut-off? Where you're in despair and your thoughts are swirling, and you're watching anime bemoaning a horrible life.

Secondly: Just so tired you want to sleep

Thirdly: IDNGAF

Worked my ass off for my seminar 4 hours after that and found out it was an hour longer than I thought it was going to be and we didn't have to do any of the work for it...

And just found out my little brother can't come down to visit me for another 2 weeks... I bought burger buns and everything :sadbye:

All I could think of is seaweed (Nori), Pocky , Noodles, Surimi (imitation crab meat sticks) and random teas.

As for Japanese food. I'd rather eat there then eat random imports or restaurants.

I'm not sure why these chit chats have to be random, I think these would benefit more in a chat box instead. would help having the random discussions, less of a "shout-out"

Anyways....currently replaying Final Fantasy III on the NES rom, I love that game to bits. I was wondering if anyone here has ever considered making their own RPG? I would if I knew how. I know most people buy those licensed RPG makers, but I personally would prefer making it by scratch.

What do you mean 'static'?

The crack is like... not on the front glass; but on the backglass or something. Idk. It's visible but it doesn't go all the way through.

           Hell yeah I'd absolutely love to make an RPG myself. In fact, it was the Final Fantasy series that led me into the World of J-RPG's and Anime as a whole. I nearly joined a video games company in Berlin a few months back as a community manager, before I took the casino gaming approach instead (money talks!)
            They only dealt with MMORPG's and mobile games, but they asked what I wanted to end up doing and I said story writing and they said it was possible. I'd assume it'd take a lot of work, but perhaps that could be something to look into? Joining a smaller company and working up the ranks while sharing ideas with them, until you get into the desired role. Or is it the technical side you'd want to do too, like the graphic design and stuff?

It's possible the LCD's have cracked and bled under the glass if you can't feel the crack but can see it Gelmra. If that's the case, you're gonna need it replacing. Going from when I worked with phones and depending on the make and model, it'll run ya anywhere between £75-£150 going to a manufacturer approved repair center. However, most back street repairer's will do it cheaper, but they'll void the warranty, so bear that in mind if you go to them.

I'll have to wait a while before I replace it... I think it'll be fine for now - I've live through worse... like that one time I sprained my ankle out in the wilderness and had to make my way back home with a stick and one leg.

Game writing is a lot more of a work-for-hire type of affair. The programming bits are the more stable jobs. Still, the viddy game industry also has a HUGE turnover rate with studios cycling through staff as the projects come and go.

Besides, anyone in the development team can be the "ideas man." Those guys are crawling out of the woodwork to grace the actual programmers with their ideas. Everyone in this forum is a would-be ideas man. It's a good mindset to have, but probably not the best goal to have from the outset. For every Tim Schafer, Hideo Kojima or David Jaffe, there's a thousand more Programmin' Petes that are earning a solid paycheck.

Programming is a boring job. Thus they are always in demand.

Writing and coming up with ideas is a fun job - mostly. So there's an excess of them.

Basically what I read.

I'm still gonna be the ideas guy - but I've gotta make a couple million dollars and get myself a cult following before people turn to me for glorious ideas.

After reading through 8chan /gg/ and when #GamerGate first blew up I have to say this.
IDK, WTF happens during vidya game development. (Picked up bad habits too now.)

Anyways. Tim Schafer is a bad example.
Dude doesnt know how to handle money or get deadlines done.
I'll see if I could dig up the source where I found it. >_>

But basically the dude blew all the money he got from kickstarter.
On doubling the paychecks of the concept artists (iirc). And who ever called him out before #gamergate about his ability on not getting sh!t done.

For 2D RPG's I don't even think you need to program any more. There is a plethora of RPG maker software available to buy of download, which pretty much allows you to create any content you want provided you find the right one.

The ability to program is still cool though and opens up a lot of possibilities.

I have a funny story about a drunk dude that passed out at the store.
Anyone want to hear it?

*posts anyways*
Manager and PIC (Person in Charge) gets a complaint about some homeless dude outside passed out.
So manager and pic walks to see whats whats up. To see homeless dude has his junk out cause he was taking a leak but passed out mid piss.
They obliviously dont want to touch dirty homeless people junk and tuck it in so instead they grab some crappy box (Has holes everywhere) and dumps it on top to cover him up.
Job well done for them so they leave the area and continue work.

That day I spent the day asking them "How's it hanging?" :thumbsup:

Within the last few months of my time in public school my flight response was giving way to a fight response, I was starting to want to hurt those who hurt me... Luckily, after a few years of isolation, that desire has dulled and I've become more passive.

Post by: NO1SY on October 22, 2014, 10:10:32 AM
I'm sure it's to do with either past trauma (or avoidance thereof...) that for fear of it happening again (or for a first time) causes your body to enter a panicked state. Depending on the individual and their health it could take as little as being worried about being wrong about something to set it off.

Physiologically you get increase in heart rate, blood pressure, muscle tensing, nausea, and perspiration - all part of the "fight or flight" response -, which can ultimately lead to your body shutting down (a.k.a. fainting) as a preventative measure.

Depends on whether you feel like you need it or not. If it's just a general discomfort of being in public in an unfamiliar place, then it probably won't help much. You may want to talk to friends and family first and see what they think will help.

Much like walking into a room and forgetting why :P

hmm in terms of Panic attacks, I don't think I've ever experienced them. Of course, having gone through high school, I have felt incredibly nervous at some time or another. A good way I found to deal with it though was to stop, take a deep breath and think if this problem, person, situation or whatever would still bother me in 10 years from now. The answer is of course invariably no. I'd then think to if it would bother me in 5 years, 1 year, 6 months, a month from then and so on. It helps to put into perspective how fleeting and temporary the worry is, that was something I remember doing when I was in my early teens about 12-13.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on October 24, 2014, 08:14:11 AM
Yeah... If you care about good gaming and healthy society then don't get involved...

Here's a sort of clear article about it: http://digiday.com/brands/wtf-gamergate/

It's basically a hashtag (So glad I don't have twitter), that started out to mark concerns about corruption in games journalism, but it kind of devolved into a big mess involving misogyny and conspiracy theories...

I don't like Anita Sarkeesian... I don't agree with feminism (I'm not a supporter of the male equivalent or even equalism - I'm a scientist... whoever can contribute the most to society and the universe, regardless of gender, has the right to have the power in my opinion... but that's another discussion), and I think her critique is complete rubbish backed by an agenda... but it warrants people to ignore her, not use anonymous mob-culture to throw out slander especially when it takes away from actual gaming concerns.

Not really. Idk where this came from but from lurking in 8chan they seem...Somewhat focused.
At boycotting their advertisers. All the negative media is just imo. Them getting desperate to get back money since they (Gawker Media) have been reduced to using google ads.
(They also blasted their advertisers for cutting their ads. Making things worst for them in the long term.)


Also done take Anita seriously. She's nothing but a con artist.
She got backed by quite a lot of money to do her stupid youtube thing.
Only for her to not even buy the games and play them but instead steal let's play footage and random images for monetary gain in the guise of "non-profit".
(Also lol Bayonetta is about a single mom. Not even close.)

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on October 24, 2014, 10:18:54 AM
Gamers/consumers have moved on from journalism and written reviews now.

All you have to do to decide whether or not you like a game is look up gameplay on youtube and decide for yourself. It's been shown that Pewdiepie has the greatest impact on game sales over any other factor at the moment. All you need to do is subscribe to a Youtuber that expresses similar interests in games to you and use their playthroughs and opinions to make your own informed decision.

For gaming news again you just have to find a source that genuinely care for gaming more than anything else. I like the guys over at Machinima's Inside Gaming and I like Totalbiscuit, because to me these two channels show much more of an interest in what things mean for the gaming world rather than trying to push agendas.

But I as a gamer had to make this decision about who to listen to myself.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: GingerStark on October 24, 2014, 10:29:23 AM
Pewdiepie has impacted game sales  :hmm: Though he said he only wants to play games for fun. Understandable, he's no Justin Bieber after all.

Hopefully the reviewing industry will pull their heads out their butts and get with the times  :thumbsdown:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on October 24, 2014, 10:36:40 AM
It was a study of steam sales and the opinions of about 70 or so games journalists to work out what the current biggest driving force behind games sales was. And they decided it was Pewdiepie.

For instance if you look at Goat simulator... it would have sold absolutely nothing had pewdiepie and other youtubers not showcased it on their channels. Same for Outlast, Amnesia and many, many other games. Turns out, if people see their favourite personality play a game and like it and make it seem fun, then chances are that they will buy it too. Moreover if their favourite personality plays a game and thinks it's awful then they will be less likely to go out and buy it.

It's a bit like celebrity culture really...

There was a big spat with the whole Youtube and Twitch copyright flagging systems a little while ago, where gameplay videos were being taken down under the pretence that if people were watching the game being played, especially story driven games, that they wouldn't feel the need to go out and buy it for themselves... but really it was acting as free advertising and just reinforced game sales. Developers are now focusing a lot more on the implications of Youtubers and how they can really help their games.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on October 24, 2014, 11:55:56 AM
Restrictive things like that really cut down on sales actually.

Not that I can talk much on that subject, since I rarely if ever buy anything. In my defence, the only anime I've ever managed to buy here is a bootleg CG of Rouroni Kenshin. Now while it was awesome, that just absolutely ties my hands

* sighs* some people..... on another site, I said something about a fighting stance of a character. her fighting stance was weak. since the character was a healer/ near the back of the fighting group. even so if she was ment to be fast to dodge attacks. her stance needed to be.ground to use her strong leg. a newbie said differently " a cute carefree"  well the artist named the piece wrong in the first place. I said sorry and I didn't mean to start drama. ( technology the newbie has already started drama. in the forum before. on under 30 posts) but a week later this artist was taking requests and I asked. the first thing of her answer was " no drama. I still have 2 others before I get to your's" 

  what the heck?! I would never start drama over that. I'm not some immature teenager that the site has. though giving my past with drama. it only started from being discriminated. because of my art. two people lieing about me. and this is a said "Christian art site"

 oh I know. I just wrote back thanks and alrighty. it was more about how I'm discriminated on the site about my art. so what if its a bit dark or creepy. doesn't make it evil or "demonic" how two have said and others believed them and didn't even ask me if it was true. though I'm not gonna leave that site just because of haters. not out to please them XD if it makes them uncomfortable so be it.

I should have studied for my ACT. I only got a 32.
"Only" ha.

I am notoriously bad at standardized-test-taking. Spend too long on a math problem or something and my confidence takes a dive. Suddenly it's a hurdle just to answer one more question. If I had my highest scores on every subject, I'd actually do pretty well. But it isn't realistic to expect that kind of thing for me as I realize now, after taking the test and, unlike with my practice tests, only finishing one subject.

I found that my biggest problem was the math section. It was like 80% geometry, and when i took geometry in highschool....well let's just say my teacher was fired before the end of the year. he didn't do a good job of teaching much of anything. So my ACT breakdown took a pretty hefty nosedive when it got to the math section.

I had the same problem with math, specifically geometry. Except I was homeschooled (and completely independent of any teachers there) so it was my own fault for not doing the work. I also never took trig, and what I knew from trig was from physics and calculus. I read Geometry for Dummies and its Trig counterpart before last ACT, which helped, I suppose.

What's an ACT!? I can tell you I don't miss studying maths though... Was alright at it, but could never really get my head around those trig identities...

On another note... ever picked up a sport after a long time of not playing and then your body loudly tells you how much it hates you for the next week for not having done proper exercise for 6 months? My arm is freakin shaking because I have used muscles that haven't been worked in half a year... I can't even hold up a glass of water still... Man I am unfit!

I know those exercise feels.

ACT is American College Test. It tests critical thinking skills within a standard American education. Basically helps decide what colleges you can attend and what scholarships you get.

I remember trig identities from calculus, though. Our teacher made us derive a bunch of them.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Colleges as in University colleges right? Seems like a bit of a major test...

I think derivations were the part I couldn't do...

Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on October 25, 2014, 08:31:26 PM
Yeah, University. It is indeed major, but not the only test you can take in that vein. Most schools require ACT, but some of them require the PSAT instead or in conjunction with the ACT.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on October 25, 2014, 08:46:39 PM
Oh, deriving identities. those were the days.

eventually you get to the point where professors just say "*censored* it, here's your equation, look up the derivation in the book if you want"

unless you go into mathematics i guess.

I probably won't pay anything outrageous on my tution fee, considering that my parents don't have a fixed income and it gets written off if I go abroad for over a year. So I'll probably go to Canada for a year and wait for the debt to go away ^.^

I have a scummy story aboot Dominoes.

When they first opened here me and my friend thought it would be cool to order from there instead of the usually local pizza place to see how it stacks.
We didnt have any bills so when the pizza guy came we just gave him the $26-ish (Can) in nothing but quarters. The pizza guy also had sweat pants on so he was carrying around 104-ish quarters in some crappy sweat pants.
Do I feel bad? No...I dont think the pizza was that great.
Should I feel bad? No...Pizza guy came back saying I ripped him off $3. Even though I tripled checked to make sure it was exact. Gave what was owed in dimes.
/True evilness  O:<

Nope. I should have been more evil.
Like when they where getting rid of the penny in circulation.
Should have payed them in pennies!

Oh what sir? Are you discriminating my method of payment? I assure you this is perfectly fine money.
But if you dont want it then take your pizza back!


I myself dont like debit cards. Or atleast I dont like relying on purely debit.
Never know when cash is needed. I know that the debit systems go down at least every 4-6 months here.

well technically when you bleach your hair its more like whitening. no bleach is used more peroxide. though I have no idea why that anime is called bleach.  maybe the manaka's brain was ablank. then was looking around and saw a bleach bottle. though wouldn't the bleach bottle be in Japanese and not english bleach. unless there isn't a Japanese word for bleach
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on October 26, 2014, 11:10:40 PM
Alright. I was curious and found out that I had it wrong. :o :push:

This is what I found on the bleach Wiki.

Quote
In an interview in Shonen Jump Magazine, Tite Kubo revealed the reasoning behind Bleach's title:

The title wasn't Bleach when Tite Kubo decided to draw a story about Shinigami. This was before he drew the one-shot manga that appeared in Akamaru Jump. The weapon wasn't a sword, but a scythe. Only Rukia had a scythe and the other characters used guns. At that point, the title was Snipe (as in "Sniper"). Right before he started drawing, he began to think that a sword would be better and realized he couldn't use Snipe as a title anymore. He began looking for a title that grasped the bigger picture. Shinigami are associated with the color black, but it would have been boring to use "black". "White", on the other hand, can suggest black as a complementary color. So Tite Kubo chose "Bleach" to evoke the impression of the color white.

Age of consent is 16 in Canada.

Anyone played Bayonetta 2?
I just went through it yesterday and its really fun.

I havent even got more indepth in the system yet.
But Bayo has an invincible SRK or at least has great range and stuns smaller enemies really fast.

So if there is a guy that combos suplexes like Nero I'd main him.  :D

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on October 28, 2014, 08:14:42 PM
I don't know much about this stuff... I'm innocent  :angel: ...  :biggrin:

I was told the rule is that it's ok to date someone half your age plus 7. So Ginger (18/2)+7 = 16 thus 15 would be a no-go zone. But feelings and emotions and blah blah blah... so maths doesn't really work in real life.

I remember back in my A levels a really REALLY hot young-ish teacher started up at the school and every guy in this all-boy's school had a crush on her (especially my best friend...). But she kept things pretty under control at school. Then when we finished exams and all went out to the pub in the evening, she came out with us and got absolutely wasted and confessed feelings for about 4 or 5 of us...

Latest news would be, while watching a free stand up gig called "Wrong comedy" at the Edinburgh festival, one of the acts considered herself to be 'a cougar into her toyboys', and stated very convincingly that she wasn't wearing any underwear (thus apologising to people in the front row because she was wearing a skirt and she liked to stand with her legs apart...) and also that her preference was redheads... while looking me directly in the eyes the entire time...

I dunno, I've kinda stopped being interested at the moment (still grieving my last long term relationship I think), so I'm happy just making friends with people at the moment, without taking much notice of looks or signals. I wouldn't ever learn from anime though :P

Bayonetta 2 is set to be game of the year. It's not so much pervy as it is making use of female sexuality to showcase dominance and power. Not gonna get a wiiU for it... but for smash bros....
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on October 28, 2014, 08:16:13 PM
She does have some nice curves...


No but seriously I hardly notice any of that.
I'm more focus trying to look stylish and keep my combos running.

It's plays like DMC action game. (Supervisor was the creator of Devil May Cry)
But there isnt that stylish bar that changes up the ending moves but there is points based on time hits and damage. I had just as much fun as DMC 4 and I wasted alot of time on DMC4 just to see Nero suplex the sh!t out of things.  :thumbsup:

That depends. Psychopath and Sociopath are two different things.
Although they have similar traits in the sense that they are usually diminished empathy and remorse, and disinhibited or bold behavior.
The main difference is that a psychopath doesnt have much sense of empathy or morality were as a sociopath has a sense of what they feel is right or wrong.

Now that sound more robotic then people. Which in some cases. Sounds more pleasing since being realistic and fact based then being emotional.

Post by: FreezingCicada on November 01, 2014, 05:29:42 PM
Depends on what you call a six pack.

When I was trying to impress someone I spent every second day morning for half year of doing 3 body weight exercises. 3 - 5 sets of 20.
Sit ups (With ankle weight support), Squats, Push ups 10 reps(Close armed. To focus on shoulders and triceps more.)

Ate hard boiled eggs and sardines for breakfast too. With an hour of running/sprinting up hills.
I was able to easily get definition in my abs. Even now I could still see muscle and I havent done much in terms for abdominal muscles aside from support from other weighted exercises.
Now it wasnt like body builder abs. But it wasnt lacking if anyone wanted to see either. >_>;

While I'm at it. Dont go crazy on just abs. Abs are nice but dont cause muscle imbalances.
An abdominal imbalance causes more stress on your back and could get you injured too.
Plus I dont think abs are that appealing TBH. I think most people are impress with a daunting silhouette which means the back muscles (Rear Deltoids, Upper/ Lower Back, Trapezius and Triceps), Dont skip leg day either!

Not gonna lie... I think a couple of my neighbours was growning cannabis. Or was swatted...Idk which.

Just remember this armored van driving recklessly to the neighbours drive way and raided the place.
Came out with nothing. And I thought to myself "We have armored vehicles this far in the north?!"

Depends on how in depth you want to go fella. From what I gather, a serious dealer sets up a warm room with some UV lighting. Then just tend to them like house plants I guess? watering and the like?

I went to Taco Bell last night at midnight. In my town, Taco Bell at night is chock full with about 50 African Americans and 10 Caucasians. Me and workers at the the studio my band recorded at (just one song for the local university label's compilation) comprised five of those 10. A guy walked in and shouted, "Hey errybody. I came to this town from Georgia and I herrd that it can turn up. But I ain't see nobody turn up!" And a girl on the other side of the room said, "Oh we can turn up!" and the entire restaurant proceeded to shout, "OHHHHHHHHHH!" I had no idea what was going on. That and there was one guy sitting at a table who was very obviously high, which is why I thought of the incident.

Yes there is a long running Anime named Gintama, as to if its funny? well, I've only seen bits. I expected a shonen style story ala Bleach/Naruto, but lets say it takes a different road. Give it a shot dude.

Also, is it an unspoken rule in your town Paipis? That if someone asks you to "turn up" then you make some noise?

Like in England, if someone drops something and it smashes/breaks/makes a mess or whatever, everyone who saw/heard it shouts "Waaaaaayyyyyyy!". No idea why, but it's the rules :P

Gets down to -39 degrees CELSIUS, with a windchill factor that brings it all the way down to -60 degrees Celsius on the coldest of winter days. Fingers feel frozen in mere minutes and have to go inside.

I live in a state that's normally pretty hot, but the past few days it's been down in the 50s (Fahrenheit) and I've seen people in winter coats.
Being born and raised in the north with my fair share of blizzardy winters, I am ashamed to say that I was wearing a pretty heavy jacket myself.

Yeah, the nights have been even colder. I personally enjoy cold weather, but it's hilarious to watch the people who've lived here their whole lives and are like "We're going to die. The ice age is coming." ...when it's 60 degrees.
I remember when I first moved here, it was about 60 degrees, and I was in a t-shirt and jeans. Someone came up to me and asked why I wasn't wearing a jacket, cause it's "way too cold."

this fahrenheit business always gets me confused. It's been nippy today in good old england, when I got up at 5.45am it was absolutely freezing! It's now 2 degrees centigrade (thats 35 fahrenheit I think to those across the pond).

heh. Even being born and raised in the south, I quite like the cold. When I was younger I used to like to shock people by wearing a t-shirt and shorts on the days that it snowed. Obviously, I was cold, but I was comfortable enough to troll my summer-loving friends.

They do indeed, but the software website has a forum using that software and it's up. But all the forums (multiple ones) are sister sites so the admin/webmaster maybe making changes or something.

As for participation it's all up to the community itself. Even if it were promoted the end game is that someone has to be willing to make a YT video.

From the Anthology, to the podcast, to YT, to the banner contest, mascot contest and art workshops it's all up to us to participate.

Glowing effects. Simple.

Use different hues of color or shades of grey. Center of light where brightest is just white or light hue of color.

Could give you an example but I set all of my Cigar-chomping characters aside.

I'm going to try that. What's going to make it a bit challenging is that the glow effect will be under some objects. That's what I'll be attempting in my latest artwork (The one with the dead rat crow's feather :push:).

Guyver was one of the first animes I ever heard of it. I always thought the design was so cool. The Guyver unit is one of the most badass things in all anime. Last year I watched the 2005 series. I hyped it up since I've known it for so long and it wasn't bad. Just not great. It was like...a good anime but just that. It didn't...pop. Still The Guyver is really badass and Chris Patton and Luci Christian two of my favourite voice actors where in the dub so I liked that. I watched some of the original as well and it's neat. Guyver was like Ghost In The Shell. I knew about it years before I watched it and when I finally did I was a bit underwhelmed.

Not gonna lie. A gun or taser would be more effective. Or even pepper spray.

Cause you gotta be realistic here.
Thuggin dudes are around my weight in a 150-170 lbs. I could easily over power any woman if I wanted to. EASILY! But I dont cause whats the point.
Scrawny dudes around the 120 lbs I say would be easier to deal with.

Anyways boxing your not gonna be knocking them out. You might land a good shot or two but thats it.
Its should be mainly used to create an opening to escape.
Not be dumb and think you could fight anyone or anything after being taught how to put up a guard and throw a fist.

Now I've been taught from my dad and he stressed. If you even get cornered by 2-3 dudes.
Dont even think you could win a fight. Your best option is to create openings and run.
And I follow his teachings with the utmost respect. After all, hes been in way tougher spots then me and more experienced then I even could be. :thumbsup:

Post by: MahluaandMilk on November 07, 2014, 10:53:31 AM
I'm not saying that it would protect me, but if I have to go down, I don't want to be the only one with bruises, even if I have more. I try not to overestimate myself though, and would probably wind up submitting in the case of being cornered by multiple opponents.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on November 07, 2014, 11:14:00 AM
I understand. I was just rustled cause I remember some schools were hosting boxing lessons for girls after classes. Then they all came out like they were the best after learning how to jab and guard.
No foot work, hooks or theory. >_>

Submitting is defeat! End up practically dead or broke, imo.
Anyways a good book to read up is one from Benny Urquidez.
Its outdated and there might be better books out there now.

But for its time he really went down to more technical aspects of movements like:
For weaving and bobbing move with you shoulders, Rotate hips to drive into the body, counter uppers with hooks, etc.
When other martial art books are more spiritual like. Move like water, etc.

Anyways I'm done talking aboot fighting. :sure:

"Sissy" as in an affectionate term for "sister." That word has been around like that for ages and its use in that form probably predates the relation to "coward" you're suggesting. Since, you know, apparently femininity equals cowardice, submission, fragility, and such. :glare:
Anyway, we're not related per se, but we have known each other for about six years (I was in sixth grade, she was in eighth. We kind of grew up together since she lives about five minutes or less walking distance from my place.)

You'll be surprised. I even picked up some manga for reference.
Shokugeki No Soma.
No I'm not perving it. It is serious business!
Even if the artist had to have drawn that before it. (I refuse any other explanation!)

I know some of my dads friends makes some moose sausages with some bacon mixed in.
Or you could get some dried meat or that ball of meat thing, I forgot whats it called.

Basically dried meat grounded/crushed down mixed with fat and berries (Blueberries usually)
Now I dont know anyone native people with the old school traditional values anymore.

But nobody cares about that, we just justify our existence with lies given truth by conformity... but for what? To give ourselves a false illusion of comfort?

The other was this chick that dyed her hair blond. I'm pretty sure she would check me out every now and then, or I'm paranoid and happen to notice her looking back. >_>;

According to the theistic Satanists, he's not the bad guy, the Dude is the bad guy and lies about his place. They view Satan as the creator deity and the Dude as the evil one out to enslave humanity and will use the bible and the behavior of the Dude's followers to prove their point.

As someone who identifies with Baptist Christianity now but was a Wiccan, presently in a relationship with someone whose soul is very much Pagan (emphasis on Greek and Norse mythological study), I suppose you could say that I have some experience.

I have studied some herbalism, so I can identify the uses and methods of using certain plants/leaves/seeds/etc. for medicine, although even I have problems still with differentiating the plants themselves. Mostly why I drink chamomile teas. I can see why that would be useful to continue studying..(I do highly recommend the study for you, lego; you might find it useful.)

Its a harem.

SAO is nothing but a harem. A mainstream harem.
I look like a perv if I talk about owning Infinite Stratos and buying the second season on blueray/dvd but second I mention SAO being an over glorified harem I look like an idiot. >_>

The initial concept is what drew people in. (Myself included)
But then after that I put my mind at ease, look at the pretty details and pick a waifu.
That being said; Sinon is best waifu.

EDIT: VALKYRIE CHRONICLES!!! IS HERE NOW!!

*sense's multiple reviews of SAO being written up......


It was an show that was okay, but somehow garnered a MONSTER reaction. Thus, the hype train left the station and expectations were raised a lot higher than they should of been. So when people watched and the show failed to deliver, it hit a nerve with people.

I liked the concept (being trapped in an MMO when suddenly the stakes become life and death) and it starts out okay. But then....Kirito. Kirito happens. He does have some good moments, but they don't outweigh the bad. Then the second arc happens and yeah......

But I will say SAO II from the first 12 episodes I've checked out so far, is a lot better. Namely, since it focuses on another character that is infinitely more interesting.

Yeah I have absolutley no idea why SAO got so much hype in 2011... Personally I liked the MMO concept until it kinda stopped feeling like a game. And Kirito was really dull. Then the second part of SAO happened... and I try to forget that it did... SAO II was a bit better, but essentially more of the same standard from the first season... but I stopped watching after the GGO bit ended.

Valkyrie chronicles anime?

Dunno, I've never watched it.

Though I heard its a bad adaption.
A-1 pictures did it, which also did SAO and they're other stuff usually falls flat at the latter half.
It would probably be better to just a play through with the cutscenes or something.

I'm staying away from SAO, among other over-hyped things. I will say that the original concept was a killer idea, but adding in the bs romance plot killed it. Went from possible 9/10 to a current like 5/4. :-\

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on November 11, 2014, 02:02:43 PM
Depends. Some people I knew told me Black Butler and Fairy Tail good, but I never trusted their taste anyway. Shinsekai Yori had very few but very good reviews and I left the show pretty disappointed. Same with RahXephon (I probably ought to change my avatar at this point). But if we're talking massively hyped up shows by almost all anime fans, Code Geass would be a good contender. It was a good show overall and I enjoyed it, but the pacing was very fast all the way through (both a strength and a flaw) and as a result the character development happened unrealistically fast. It was also too fanservice-y for my taste (I know, there are worse).

I would also cite Evangelion, but I heard a lot of bad things about that one along with good things. It didn't receive the unanimous praise that CG did.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on November 11, 2014, 05:06:11 PM
Basically any show with hype... I haven't watched many hyped up shows outside of SAO and SnK, but basically any show with a huge fan-base before or early on in airing will undoubtedly spark a debate, because the fanboys play it up and then the rest of us watch and its just ok. Think anything big: Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, Fairy Tail, SnK, SAO (Don't know why this got hype though...), Aldnoah.Zero, Tokyo Ghoul, Kill La Kill, Psycho Pass...

This is different from a show being controversial like Black Butler or Evangelion though. Black butler is good (not as good as the manga... but good...) but they screwed it up by making an original story for the second season. But now they are back to adapting one of the best arcs of the manga. Moreover I have heard of absolutely no hype surrounding it at all... Eva is meant to be excellent (but I like to make fun of it a bit) but only die hard fans defend the ending. Again a little bit different because although it gets hype, it's only let down by an obscure ending and Shinji...

Hype isn't just being told by a few people, it's A LOT of people raving about a show.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on November 11, 2014, 06:05:31 PM
Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, and Fairy Tail were all hyped up by one kind of anime fan, of which there is a lot, so they don't count.

I'm talking about hype from more than just shonen fanboys and about shows that are almost universally acclaimed. Mind you, Evangelion does not fit into this definition as I said in my previous comment. So I guess I'm going on the difference of my expectations raised by the multitude of anime fans that liked it (including ones with similar taste to me which have far more influence on my expectations anyway) and my own thoughts on the show. Nobody ever told me that Black Butler was a masterpiece or anything, so it fails to be overhyped in the magnitude department, but I did know a lot of people that liked it, not all of which were the same kind of anime fan, so it had something in the multitude department. So I was expecting to like it. But I didn't. At all.

I've only seen the first season, and to be honest I thought it was one of the worst anime I had ever seen. It was filled with very obvious, uninteresting binary twists ("You thought this guy was good? Well, he's actually bad! Bet you never expected that! It happened again, bet you weren't expecting that either! Again! Shocking!") and Ciel does absolutely nothing and yet is treated as a chessmaster type. I won't even go into its lackluster treatment of the Victorian era.

With Evangelion, there was more than just the ending that was wrong with it (I liked Shinji as a character, haters gonna hate). It fell into a lot of long, messy slice of life slumps such that the actual plot was reduced to a few key conversations. Didn't help that the plot wasn't resolved one bit. There were parts I liked about the series, though; it just didn't live up to its masterwork status. There were a lot of people who said this, and that's why I didn't include it.

The only anime that actually fit into my definition was Code Geass, so that's the one I went with. I've seen it on a lot of people's top 10 anime lists, with super high ratings and generous reviews, and I've never seen someone besides myself say it wasn't exceptionally good.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on November 11, 2014, 06:51:45 PM
Haruhi and Lucky Star come to mind as well.

Haruhi is atleast good imo. I havent checked out the spin offs but the first season was good enough for me.
Lucky star is just a bunch of mundane stuff with references thrown in. Yet people act like its the greatest and funniest thing ever made.

Also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAtoY7L80K4

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on November 11, 2014, 07:19:36 PM
I'd put Code Geass in my top 20. But I must have missed that hype...

And I can understand people not liking Black Butler (especially the anime). I like the manga on a personal level with some of the arc choices.

I just think there is hype (which is healthy, because there will always be groups of people that enjoy every different show) and then there is HYPE (which can be a double-edged sword if a show is hyped up too much). Acclaim is fine and all, but it doesn't mean that everyone will enjoy the show.

For instance I can't stand Angel Beats, K-ON, Madoka and Fate Stay Night, all which are critically acclaimed for various reasons and have had their fair share of popularity, but I don't feel like they are over-hyped just because I don't like them either objectively or subjectively. I don't really like talking about this so much because it's such a subjective thing and it's effectively judging people's enjoyment of shows (although when a show like SAO comes around it's really hard not to... especially when it garnered so much attention and no one can quite work out why...)

Anyways can I just point out a show that is highly deserving of what little hype it gets: Magi - hot damn! I miss watching that... gonna go and read the whole manga me thinks...

Walking Dead after season 1...

As a massive fan of the comics, and also a fan of the video games, the tv show just feels different. I accept that they have to make some changes to the material to adapt it to a tv version, but it just feels so... dragged out... and predictable... and unneccessary.
The characters are horribly inconsistent, the dialogue cues are painful, the pacing is extremely slow and the whole show feels commercialised. Especially the obsession with Daryl. Urgh.
It's sad that the show is more popular than the other formats... my friend even brought the tv show based game over the TellTale version simply because Daryl...

Just my two cents

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on November 11, 2014, 07:38:11 PM
The telltale games (the episodic ones) are fantastic, even if you've never watched a second of the Walking Dead. They don't follow the TV show or the comics. It's more of an interactive story, but they are really well written and you the choices you make can affect who lives and dies, so it's pretty cool.

In terms of the walking dead, it goes...Season 1: this is cool, lets see where this goes/ Season 2: Wow, double the episodes of last season!? This is going to be awesome....oh wait no, it isn't.../Season 3: Oh hells yeah, THIS is what we wanted, shizz is going down....Oh, no it's not quite there/ Season 4: Good, Good, OH MY GOD NOOO!......wow, you peaked in the mid season finale...And then Season 5, which I think has been the best season so far. I've really enjoyed it.

Realising you never had it to begin with comes with the realisation that you have little to be upset about, but leaves you in the same position of pining after it in the long term.

Losing something you had can hurt a whole lot more in the short term, but in the long term can not mean all that much.

To be honest though... they both suck pretty bad...

Image sourcing is a horrendous problem for me since I'm on a school loaner laptop. Most people's profile pictures (like Gelmra's) are just a little question mark, as is my signature. *Le sigh* I'm glad when I get home and have my own unrestricted-internet-accessable computer.

I can see yours just fine, and Ginger's, and Vio's. It's just occasionally. Sometimes I can't see people's work in their art threads either. Ugh.

That aside, again, how much time I spend on this forum instead of paying attention in Honors Chem II makes me very concerned as to how I'm making a B in the first place, considering I hardly ever study either. I just read the book a little bit sometimes, and I mean like, one chapter. Out of boredom.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on November 13, 2014, 01:18:32 PM
hehe...

I dunno... school was never hard for me until my A2's and then I only ever struggled in exams because I wouldn't revise. I'm innately good at understanding things that I read or am told (Thanks mum and dad) but my memory of very specific detail isn't great, which explains why I found things more difficult as the subjects got more and more specific.

Now it's even worse because student life is very distracting and i spend waaaaaaay too much time reading manga, binging on anime, watching youtube, watching films and playing games instead of revising for my exams... I rely on my coursework to hold me up, I like spending time on things.

Be all and end all, it's good to try.

Always got to be polite when expressing frustration~

Dear Sir and/or Madam,

I am sorry to bother you with this letter, but I must address an issue that is concerning me. For some days now, hooligans have been disturbing the dorm at around two in the morning. They usually appear to be under the influence of alcohol, and I fear approaching them at their current state will result in some ruffles.

I ask politely that the disturbance to be halted out of concern for others in the dorm. If this action keeps repeating itself ever morning, then I will be force to play My Love Is a Stapler at an ear cringing volume level to drown out the ruckus.

Thank you and good day.

Ginger

As much as I'd like to kick these people in the ovaries/testes, they're a group so the odds don't stack well for me.

As for Vio, this is my email;
Spoiler
Dear Campus Watch,


I am unsure if I should take this problem up with you, so I apologise if it's the wrong address.


At approx 2.00AM in Becket Court a group of people (I'm assuming male students) came into Becket Court and started singing. They continued this walking up the corridors of each floor in Becket, and stamping on the floor, intent on causing annoyance among the students. Since they are a group and can be suspected of being drunk, it is likely that they pose a threat to students who would try to intervene peacefully. Since exams are going on for me and other students I know, this makes their behaviour even more detestable.


This is not the only time people have come into Becket at late hours and caused a disturbance, but I can arguebly say that this is the worst. I would like to inquire into what Campus Watch would do to prevent/intervene on the matter.


Cheers,

Max

Nice work, bro, but I'd be more to the point in filing a complaint.

"Dear Campus Watch,

At (Dorm Name) at about 2:00AM last night there was a (likely drunk) group of students disturbing the peace and it is exam week for some of the residents. Some of the disturbances include loud singing, stomping on the floor, and some even banging against doors of some students' rooms. Hopefully this issue can be resolved and thank you for your time.

(Name here)

Short, simple, and to the point. Then again, what do I know? I've never filed a complaint either.

Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on November 13, 2014, 04:18:35 PM
Dear Campus Watch,

A group of drunk idiots came to the dorms at 2 AM belting "Don't Stop Believin'," stomping on the floor, and banging against doors, while I was trying to do all of the above in the comfort of my own room. Please give them forty lashes. I figure that's a lenient punishment for being two whole beats behind.

In other other news, apparently somebody was really pissy today because not once but TWICE there was a tremendously loud door slam in the science/math hall. I mean, it sounded like an explosion, man!

Was just wondering if a vote like that or something has happened before?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on November 14, 2014, 06:42:19 PM
Of course there are awards

secret awards

"Most days of interrogation withstood"

"Least annoying this year"

"Least likely to start a fight"

"Mostly Okay"

But I digress. It'd be pretty hard to judge who was the best member, or who wrote the best story. It's logistically terrifying. For the most part though, we're all awesome all the time anyways, so why worry about it?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

I believe I took a mini class on how to write one...
The whole concept seemed silly to me but the jest is basically;
-Contact information
-Education
-Experience (Anything you find beneficial/relevant)
-Why you want to work/ motivated you are

Basically just keep things to a bare minimum and see how well you can BS through it.

I've heard of dudes that BS to higher classes of jobs that didnt have the necessary levels of education for it with just a high school diploma. Then learned the ins and out of the job before they even found out he BS to get it but stayed cause he was good at it. (With union help.)
If you dont have high school then...Good luck.

Currently debating with my dad whether lots of eggs are good for you. He says one a day at most, but I think around 20 is pretty good (because hats what I eat)  :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MahluaandMilk on November 18, 2014, 07:21:10 PM
That many? Yeesh..
Anyway, what would you guys like as a gift for yule/christmas/whatever-you-celebrate-or-don't? I'm going to try writing a little Raiders fic.

Eggs are perfectly fine.
You cant eat them raw cause of salmonella.
But they are good sources of protein and fats. Along with them easy to cook.
Hard boiled or omelet is how I usually cook them.

But your dad is sounds like one of those people concern about cholesterol.
Which eating the egg yolks is perfectly fine as they are nothing more then a healthy fat with protein.
By skipping out on it your not only wasting food but also buying into stupid logic about fats.
(Ie: Oh noes egg yolks, but I'll eat avocados! :^D )

But really do some running or pick up more things if your concerned about eggs.
They arnt bad. Plus they ttaste mad delicious the more spicier they are!

Also why are you eating so many?
Christmas gift...Idk...

An argument could be made for the same to be said about any form of entertainment, if you think about it.

I guess I'd liken it to when you were a kid and had friends over and played with lego. You make stupid stuff and have dumb fun. Even if it's just dumping lava onto your friends house (in minecraft of course, not in real life)

True, but I think legos were more fun. I dunno..I just don't like Minecraft for whatever reason. I think it might just be because it's so hype. I'm weird like that.

It's one of those kind of deals, where you make it fun, with the people you're with. Not a game to play on your own.

Oh no it's not weird, theres plenty of people who dislike something just because its popular. Not that I'm saying you're a hipster or anything haha

I actually kind of am..I watched Black Butler before it became super-popular with the yaoitards and such..similar stories with watching other anime before the dub or before the popularity boom. Also, I really love the band "Kidney Theives", but you've probably never heard of them. (Pushes up my glasses)

Haha, can't say I  have.....

I'm careful with the phrase, since I've seen people take offence to it before. It's not really a term we use here in England (Least not where I am anyways). Think the equivalent we have here is the "Indie" crowd?  :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Lovus Eternius on November 19, 2014, 01:13:23 PM
It must be nice being able to watch anime.

I thought Indie was just a shortening of Independent as in publisher/developer, or something.

Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on November 19, 2014, 01:20:54 PM
1. I read earlier comments and was confused as to why you were talking about legomaestro.
2. There is no definition of the word "hipster." It's kind of like species where there are concepts instead, except that everybody has their own and no two concepts are consistent. It isn't like "hippy" where at least you can define them by one definitive trait (living in communes). This is why, when "hipsters" are mentioned I just :noidea:
3. Indie does come from Independent. In regards to the "indie" (a much clearer term in the long run) crowd, their name comes from indie music, or independent music, which is not so much self-released music (although it does include that) as music released from independent record labels (labels that aren't under Sony and other large corperations).

I don't tend to go to balls, dances, or formals, so I honestly don't know. Maybe a nice shirt with a tie and corduroys. I usually roll up my shirt sleeves when I do wear nicer shirts. If it were super formal, I'd wear a shirt.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on November 20, 2014, 04:29:37 AM
I like suiting up for formals. If I want to dress down a little I'll change out suit trousers for black slim fit jeans, but still no excuse for unpolished shoes :P

Kind of formal isn't much to go off of though, and from my experience girls tend to have dresses for most events (not full on ball garments usually but still a dress for every occasion...)

I know that eucalyptus has some healing properties, and also certain leaves, roots, and seeds from other trees can also be used medicinally. Still though, you can never go wrong with a beautiful old oak tree.

Maple tree... because I am half Canadian and gotta have me that syrup :biggrin:

Got to be more specific than that. There's 150 species of Maple, ten of which are native to Canada. :tongue:

Why are you researching trees may I ask?

Aus and I are composing a story about witches in a boarding school in the U.K. region called The Witches of Edwin High.

The school will surrounded in a forest or somewhat. So, I'm researching trees to see what's native in U.K. and most like see in a forest. Also, we have a character that's a nature-type that'll spend most of her time in the woods and greenhouse. ^^

Then there's a side bubble with family members I like but don't know very well/don't talk to often, which has like 5 people in it, then there's the family members I can sorta tolerate being around, which is about 10 people. Then the 20 others are floating around in their own little bubbles, hopefully as far from my bubble as possible. ::)

Although I hope you guys won't mind if I make a new thread for a different sub-story along similar lines of the same universe as my primary one?

You're telling me. I guess to better translate my other statement, I want to start out with writing a particular story from one timeline that is kind of a tangent to the main timeline. I want to work on that one in particular admittedly because I think it's the easiest to start with. Another plus is that it doesn't need the backing of the main timeline to make sense, despite the bit of religious aspect.

DA 2 has weak story and characters, but the game mechanics is better. I but I do prefer origins over 2. ^^

On another note, Am I the only one who thinks Hawke looks tad bit like a younger version of Joel from The Last of Us?

Inquisition was made by the team that made Origins.

2 was not.

Oh...

My god, you're right Vio! I think Hawke looked pretty badass... I always went with Merril with both genders. Her and Varric were my favourites. The others... I just didn't care... Mostly because they were all trying to flirt with me *glares at Anders*

The only game I care for on the PS4 this year.

NA release date is Dec.12/14

Cel-shading always looks awesome.

Post by: MahluaandMilk on November 24, 2014, 12:35:21 PM
I think the naming system got drunk because I'm pretty sure it's XIII, XIII-2, XIV?? and then XV is the newest..
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Lovus Eternius on November 24, 2014, 12:48:40 PM
I guess they called it XIII-2 because it was about the same characters. (Random assumption)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MahluaandMilk on November 24, 2014, 01:14:35 PM
Thanks, Captain Obvious. It's still really easy to make a joke about. XIII-2. At least FFVII came up with different names for the different games. Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus..and of course the one they turned into a movie, Advent Children.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on November 24, 2014, 01:48:08 PM
XV isn't out yet but I am hoping it will get me into FF, it looks so good! Haven't properly been into an FF game since XII revenant wings on the DS... Didn't like the gameplay in XIII or XIII-2  and XIV is the online game...

Anyways now I just need to work out how to afford a PS4 so that I can play XV...

On another note have gotten really ill during my stay at home-home and can't get out of bed to get back to uni...

On the plus side I am trying to choose a new phone for my upgrade (about 2 months overdue...). I hate my Samsung Galaxy S3 now... it worked well for 6 months and then the processor slowed down no matter how much I cleaned it and the battery life has reduced to less than a day...

I'm thinking Iphone 5s seeing as I have a Macbook and Ipod touch already and they are improving the devices interconnectivity but I was wondering if anyone has any experience with a 5c because they are a little cheaper???

British snobbery I guess...  a different idea of clichéd names... but there are some names that are typically American and sound rather odd when spoken with a British accent.

Have you seen that b*tchy woman that's become a celebrity for not liking celebrities? She had a big thing in the news about the baby names she thought were inappropriate for an upstanding society... her rule was no baby names after flowers or countries/states... her child is called India... (I think)... my brother hates her and found great joy watching a video the other day of a mother slapping her on live television...

It's actually really funny, I find.

I do that all the time.
Though I dont use Facebook much at all. Probably a once or twice month thing.
Unless I'm gloating about something, then I post. /smugness

Anyways, Sometimes you have to keep in mind of context as well.
Example: What am I going to say back to "lol"? Or "Peace see you there" things?

Or even sometimes I'd rather see if I could catch them in person and say, "That was a funny joke you posted on Facebook, mang." :thumbsup:
The which they probably talk more about it or think I'm being sarcastic. Which leads to more conversation.
Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta find ways to level up my verbal skillz.

There was this one movie that I thoroughly enjoyed when I was a kid.

"Eragon."

the times I rewatched the movie is unreal, and I don't even know why... but I was sad when it ended and wanted a sequel. Turns out it didn't have a good enough rating or viewership or whatever.

then I became a cynic and took comfort in outrageousness to keep me sane.

Eragon didn't get a sequel because the movie had so many changes done to it. They left out so many important parts of the book out that it is impossible for them to make a sequel.

I tried reading the second book after I watched the movie and it didn't make any sense...

MM is fine. Mahlua is a stupid spelling of a mispronunciation of my name that has become a running gag between my friends and I to the point where I respond to it like a nickname, so it became my username under this misspelling as a slant pun on Kahlua and Milk, an alcoholic cocktail mentioned in both the manga Girlfriends and the Witchblade anime. Also, one of the characters in my favorite manga series, Rosario†Vampire, is named Kahlua. Wow, stupid reason for a username, but okay.

I love ties a little too much lol and I would probably wear and English cut suit if I could find one and had the money to get it tailored properly.

All I want for Christmas is a good eat
G-rated statement with an R-rated innuendo #heckyeah
Not really jk but for the sake of transition, JK~
Other ideas for christmas for me: Marina and the Diamonds albums, Claymore manga, the newest volumes of Rosario†Vampire, and I dunno maybe a 48 pack of either faber-castell or prismacolour markers.

And hopefully I'll finish up that MR christmas fic of mine sometime next week? :noidea:

Today on the life of 'Lua:

Mom doesn't approve of my choice in a vehicle because she's afraid I'm going to flip it in a wreck just because my choice in car would happen to be a Jeep. No, you ignorant *censored*waffle, I meant a Jeep Cherokee. Honestly, that woman infuriates me to the point of wanting to pound my head against a brick wall. Repeatedly.

"Why should I listen to you if you'e so rude all the time?" Well, I don't know, maybe because I actually know what in the name of grub Jegus I'm talking about and you, frankly, despite being older and my mother, have the mental capacity of a rotten egg when it comes to almost every area of my interests?

(http://i.imgur.com/fzJ7w16.gif)
Gog save the queen

Also wtf is wrong with me if I ask for just a hot dog when you're going to go to a fast food restaurant? That's a perfectly logical response and requires no ridicule or back sass whatsoever from this insane birth giver.

Your mother is expressing concern for your well-being. Interpreted as a breach of personal interests.

Your mother is expressing concern for you clogging your arteries. Interpreted as ridicule and annoying.

Try to understand each other and the reasons for what one or the other is doing. Makes life go by with less bumps.

But of course you'd say something unreasonable and immature like: "OH MY GAWD, DO YO EVEN KNOW MY MOTHER?!"

(The above is based on the responses I have gotten thus far.)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MahluaandMilk on November 26, 2014, 08:06:30 PM
I understand her concern, but any vehicle can flip in a bad accident, so why should the make of the car matter if the desired model is a well-built one?

Yes, hot dogs are bad for you, but why is she getting food from a fast food restaurant in the first place and asking me to pick from their menu?

Oh, no, wait, don't listen to the seventeen year old just because she's angry right now so obviously she has no idea how to think on two paths at once and understand the other side's argument, although she does feel that her own arguments outweigh the other's, because she feels fairly confident in her knowledge of her own situation.

Not to mention if you'd ever had an argument with her you'd note the way she talks in circles and never follows any definitive path that resembles logic at all as well as her blatant misunderstanding of even the most simple concepts unless explained thrice over as if she were a child, and then her immature fury once said inconsistencies are brought to her attention, resorting to the oh-so-helpful-and-informative "I'm your mother so you have to listen to me" guilt trip that I would personally rather gag myself than listen to another round of.

             I look at it this way. Parents are just regular, normal human beings. Since birth, they have been our gateway to the world and since they are our source of learning from a young age, we have a tendency to subconsciously think of them as all knowing.
           
               However, when our knowledge, as well as our own emotional and social intelligence is up to scratch. We start to notice that they are not omnipotent, but rather they are just people, with their own personality flaws and gaps in knowledge. 
             
                 But its important to remember, they have gone through so much with you. Raising you from being completely dependant on them and always being around, to when you hit the teens and become more distant and independent. It must be a huge culture shock to them emotionally. So sometimes they can and will snap at you, but everything would come from the right place.
             
               I had many an argument with my mum and I would sometimes resent her for giving me a hard time. But it always stemmed from her caring about my welfare and happiness. So it might seem like they are getting on your back a lot, but grit out the bad times and  show them some love during the good ones!  :heart:

As much as I'm inclined to agree, I'm sure I can say fairly certainly that my mother is really just a little on the stupid side. Not even because I'm mad, but seriously because she literally just does not compute some of the most simple things.

For example, instead of asking for help (i.e.: would you do the dishes?) she simply complains when these things aren't done for her, even though she winds up doing them anyway, which she then in turn complains about even more although she could have easily just asked politely.

Also, how is it not common sense that a child is just an overly-dependant and underdeveloped human and once reaching development and independence that they would become their own human beings? Like, how does a parent not have that realization a lot sooner that all humans are unique and that you can't expect them to rely on your guidance forever? That just seems downright like reckless lack of thought to me, although I tend to think too much, hence why she and I are so different.

Ugh, I need a cigarette..

I have most of my influence from my dad.

...Aside from the creepy stuff, that I learned from own lack of self awareness...
Oh and while I'm at it, the grand mothers are usually more tolerant or stronger overall.
Or I find it...(My dads mother is the strongest women I've known, Yet to see any person deal with the things she has.) :thumbsup:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on November 26, 2014, 09:35:51 PM
Ah, I think that captures the sentiment rather well.

Your mother should realise you are an independent person,  who can make their own choices and stand on their own two feet......but she should still wash your dishes.

You have never been depressed. Or atleast I assume so.
You have alot to think about when your stuck at a reserve where there is nothing to do, nobody wants you to do anything, nobody talks to you cause you dont understand them and nobody teaches you anything.
Seriously, that right there is living hell, where you spend you days just waiting for the day to be over.

Where being an early bird is mocked and told to go to sleep when everyone wakes up at noon and your up at 6-8 am. I'm gonna stop myself there.

I agree Ginger, My grandmother is always cleaning up something cause she enjoys to do it.
Plus she stayed with my grandfather when he was mentally ill. Always helping him to gain back his physical strength right to the bitter end. When other people would forsake their vows and try taking what they can before they leave. Respect doesnt feel nearly enough to give back to her.

Watched some Dragon Age gameplay, Party based RPGs are not my thing and graphics look a little worse than Skyrim's which was released in 2011... Damn I really wish they just added a Co-op mode dlc to skyrim instead of making ESO...

Hmmm, I was thinking of getting it for PC but I'm worried about wasting £40 if it doesn't meet the specs. Dang, looks like I'll have to connect a PC monitor to my Xbox or something.

It's that time of year man, you gotta be extra careful with illness :(

To answer the previous question. Not much colour variation in the vomit at theme parks.

Random and probably unwanted side note: Most colourful vomit I ever saw was when I'd down 2 pitchers of Strawberry Woo woo's (RIP Rev's). Bright red it was. Wasn't a fun end to the night. :sick:

Look at the water and snow in both games and you will know which one has better graphics.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on November 29, 2014, 04:14:25 PM
I'm thinking overall with character and armour designs etc. Especially with the characters

Also comparing details like those is a bit unfair when comparing Skyrim on last gen to DA on this gen. If there is one thing that the new gen of consoles can do that the previous couldn't is definitely setting detail and draw distance. And if you want to compare both on PC then i'd say go and download one of the latest texture and scenery mods for Skyrim and see how it compares so that the 3 year development gap is evened out a bit.

But even then, i felt as if DA always lagged behind ES in terms of graphical fidelity in all of their games. And I was expecting a whole lot more in the graphical department then I have seen from any next gen game so far...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: GingerStark on November 29, 2014, 04:18:52 PM
I prefered the dragon age series more  :hmm: It has that 'choice affecting narrative' that really excites me about games. I mean, Skyrim allows you to kill the Emperor, but not much happens after that. Dragon Age allows you to defile the urn of sacred ashes, then you might have to kill party members, lose approval with the chantry, ect.
I think the more emotional content is what the bottom line is for me  :hmm:

has Mangareader thought of making a game of some sort? im sure we could make like an indie game about starting as a hobbyist manga writer/artist and try to become a professional with serialized mangas, it could include micro managing and such.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on November 29, 2014, 05:20:12 PM
I think that a few members have games projects but there isn't a distinct MR game that has been completed.

And Ginger is right that Skyrim doesn't have the same choice affected narrative as DA, so if that's what you like then good on you. Although apparently in this one it's not very prevalent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_uy4OSpUKE and I did sacrifice my housecarl to Boethia in Skyrim...

Anyways, I wasn't saying DA is bad, just that I prefer Skyrim more in terms of gameplay and graphics. And that while DA may be able to push things further graphically on the new gen consoles it still is nothing close to what I'd hoped it would be. So i'm gonna wait for ES6 ;)

On the gaming note my brother has somehow coerced my parents into getting us a PS4!!! Dunno how he managed it but looking forward to some console gaming again...

I need to learn how to shuffle a deck of cards.
Shuffling is easy.
Unless you mean like those Vegas dealers then yeah, Thats hard.

@ Noisey.
Here is a nice image about the gen gaps now.
(http://www.extremetech.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/polygon-count-diminishing-returns-consoles.jpeg)

That being said, thats why I love the cel-shaded look too.
It ages so well. There are exceptions like MGS1, That still looks amazing to me even today.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on November 29, 2014, 07:09:33 PM
That's an interesting picture. But then I look at the original E3 game demos and go... well ya know... it's being done. The character graphics in Watch Dogs, Unity and FFXV have all been amazing in the demos. Then we had that thing with the beefed up graphics for the Watch Dogs demo and Unity is a buggy mess. My hope lies with FFXV which looked better than them all. I long for the day when the machine is powerful enough to process gameplay alongside graphics like in Captain Harlock, that would be more than good enough for me.

Shuffling cards gets easy after a tiny bit of practice. Slow and smooth is the key. And remember to bend the cards back otherwise they get damaged, you can practice how to waterfall the cards to look fancy later.

Graphics are nice and all. It helps with the immersion.
But I'd rather have a solid reason to keep playing aside from eye candy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGVFcBvLNWI&list=UUuNiKQcJLXppWgheljJv7KQ

Would you rather have that, an interactive movie or games?

Anyways, I'd rather push for 60 FPS in games and sacrifice graphics/resolution then pretty graphics.
Cause it point, The Last of US.
If you played multiplayer between the ps3 - 4 versions.
You'll know; how much of a difference 30 fps and 60 fps is.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on November 29, 2014, 07:33:16 PM
Wait TLoU has multiplayer??? My brother is getting a code for TLoU in the bundle so that'll be a nice comparison for me as I watched my friend play through the entire game on the ps3.

60fps is nice though, with fire especially, fire sucks at 30fps.

I'd rather have a great and immersive game with brilliant graphics to boot... would be nice if it wasn't a trade off. But then The World Ends With You is still my favourite game both gameplay and story-wise and graphically.... so I guess I'm weird :P

I may also be eligible for a small grant for diversity and/or leadership, but I'm practically begging for that Chancellor's scholarship. I'll know by January, although I hope one of my Recommenders sent in his letter already--otherwise I'm a goner because today is the last day.

My winter tipple is Amaretto, or Cinnamon and spiced apple cider, damn that stuffs good......I'll be right back, the beer chiller is calling me!

Peppermint or Gingerbread or Holiday Spice hot tea or hot cocoa or Faygo are like the holiday drinks, although Faygo is just the Wicked Elixir all the time..

..really I drink hot tea and hot cocoa year round too..

My favorite winter drink is hot chocolate. My mom makes the best homemade hot cocoa mix. :thumbsup:
I love hot tea as well, but I drink that all year round haha. Then apple cider is my autumn drink.

Had a really great spiced mulled cider at Hyde Park last year. Anything with cinnamon in it does it for me really.

Eggnog is gross though... even when I had it at a fancy cocktail bar up in London... it just doesn't go down smoothly...

But yeah, don't know much that can beat a good hot chocolate, especially when it's cold out.

Ordered my Domino's Pizza and about to crack on with my coursework... I'm in it for the long haul tonight. But if I have time before falling asleep I will post some more of my story draft I have been working on :)

Eggnog is nasty. I had it once and I never want to drink it again.

Crossfaith have a song called Jaegerbomb and so they handed out bottles of jaeger at the gig :biggrin:

Tera is free to play and gives away free mounts. I've played WOW and ROM too, but
the combat system of Tera appeals to me the most.

Ha, I can never watch anime reviewers on YouTube. I get too offended if they diss what I love! I listened to a great anime podcast once but one of the guys dissed Clannad so I instantly stopped the episode and have not listened to them since. I get too passionate about some series...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on December 03, 2014, 08:15:53 PM
He reviewed the Anime - it's in his top 5 shows to watch before you die. And... really, I'd be inclined to agree if you haven't read it...

I don't mind reviews so much but I mostly watch them for the entertainment value. As with most things on youtube, it's about who is talking rather than what they are talking about. But I found this good group that has a good mix of personalities. I have Arkada's opinion which is close to mine about most shows I enjoy so I trust his judgement with shows I haven't seen. Holden, who is like an anime hipster and likes everything that no one else does and hates everything that everyone else does most of the time, so he is good for contrasting perspectives. And Gigguk who just makes me laugh loads. But I don't tend to get offended by reviewers' opinions... so each to their own.


@Robin - I'll go check it out when I find some time :)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

That's just me liking things too much! I only listen to reviews and podcasts as noise when I draw or whatever but I can't help getting pissed when I hear stuff I love being bashed. These things I like so much create such a passion in me. I only get mad if an anime reviewer disses my Holy Trinity though. Gurren Lagann, Full Metal Panic! or Clannad. Anything else and I'll be irked but it's not as bad. I like to watch some funny game and movie reviews since I don't care about those as much, although I did almost stop watching The Cinema Snob when he bashed Napoleon Dynamite.

@Manimal - I watch a lot of game reviews. Same deal though, I find reviewers (or lets-players) who either like the same stuff as me so I can make informed decisions when looking for games to buy, or reviewers that entertain me and make me laugh.

It's good to be passionate about things, but sometimes people get too over-zealous.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on December 03, 2014, 08:35:41 PM
I'm much the same way No1sey, I listen to podcast/reviews for entertainment only, although I guess reviews can be good for discovering new shows.

I don't mind when people bash shows I like, since I look at it this way:
Everyones different and have differing tastes, perspectives and opinions on shows. So my love for a show is my opinion, while others disdain for it is theirs.

I can separate my own love for a show from the critic in me though, for instance I love Bleach, its probably my favourite show, but I can easily recognise its shortcomings. Still, that doesn't stop me from loving the show though.

Best advice Manimal (digging the name change btw!) don't take it to heart if someone dislikes a show you do, it's just their opinion and can't detract from your own experience with it  :thumbsup:

Over the past few years I've been able to predict many plot twists before they happen and I think that is a skill that I can benefit from when writing my own stories, so I want to learn more about it. Plus I think that it's interesting how writers can manipulate reader's emotions with a few words.  :sure:

Post by: NO1SY on December 06, 2014, 08:16:02 PM
Depends where you go and with what people. Also probably different in America...

I'm not very active in any societies at my uni... Most the ones I signed up for didn't get enough members to get funding by the student union... The anime society included :( I was the only white guy going to the Badminton socials (and they were just nights out once a month going to the worst place in town...) so I stopped going to those as much as I do want to learn Chinese... and I used to go to the Life Sciences socials as well until I started feeling like that creepy 3rd year guy in a crowd of freshers...

But really it's just doing something with people that also like doing it. Be it video-gaming, a sport, music, acting, your subject etc. Then there is the social stuff that the club members do together that makes up most of the club activities :P

My housemate is the mens first fencing team captain and ex-social secretary. They are out having a Black tie Christmas ball tonight, but they also plan club nights, days out in town, house-parties, gig-nights, and I think they are even planning to go to a theme park in spring.

Really, as with all things, you get out what you put in, and everyone will have a very different experience.

A shame, indeed. ::)

It's got me thinking, what are everyone's favorite Christmas cookies? Or just cookies in general, if you don't celebrate it.

For Christmas specific, my favorite cookie is probably... Peanut Butter Blossoms! They're what I just made. :thumbsup:
I also love Russian tea cakes, and snickerdoodles! They sure do make the house smell like Christmas<3
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on December 07, 2014, 05:46:23 PM
My mum's peanut butter chocolate chip cookies.

May sound weird but my family do this thing where we put our cookies in the freezer. Somehow, while making them pretty cold, we find it makes them really good to eat! I think it's because it locks in a bit of moisture making them stay chewy, which I prefer over crunchy cookies... so yeah! (Took this from my Canadian grandmother which may explain the frozen part...)

If I'm gonna buy cookies then there is this chain here called Millies that just do an awesome selection.


So I'm a massive derp... been working all evening on the diagrams, tables and graphs to put into my presentation and just realised that I haven't emailed myself the slides... now (at almost 23:00) I have to go back to uni to work on it...

Ok so... after getting worked up that I have to go back to campus in the dead of night to update my presentation with my figures so that I can give it in a mock tomorrow, I have now found out that my lab supervisor is ill and so we won't be having the mock presentations tomorrow...

That would be great if it wasn't for the fact that 1) it is freezing cold outside and I now have to walk back again... and 2) the real presentation worth 10% of the grade for my project is on Wednesday and I will have to give it without any formal practice or feedback beforehand... So now I'm more stressed!  :dash:

For me a christmas cookie is just a sugar cookie with frosting in a shape. no specific kind i guess jumps out as "christmas"

jk jk ::)

My family is really big on Christmas traditions, which is why we have a lot of Christmas specific food haha. We only have cookies like Peanut Butter Blossoms or Russian Tea Cakes around Christmas (which stinks cause I crave them a lot haha) so that's why they're Christmas cookies to me! :D

Okay, so I'm taking a PK test and I'm getting results, but it seems like I'm fighting against the test because my time spans are longer than average although I am getting hits...but I'm also getting a headache and tunnel vision when I focus hard enough on the image thing.

I take it that's normal for someone just getting in touch with PK abilities?

Believe me, I would be all for it, if there were a single scrap of proof that anything like that existed within human reality. Seeing as how there isn't, I'll keep on keeping on.

I believe in science. In repeatable tests and measurable results. In things that I can know for myself. Nullius in verba.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MahluaandMilk on December 07, 2014, 10:50:45 PM
Although there are multiple tests that have slants in the direction of a positive outlook of the existence of such abilities, I completely respect that the tests generally are not repeatable and measurements and increments are small percentiles. To each their own, despite my own experiences with hauntings and dream sharing and intuition and whatnot. You must just be one of those "If I don't feel it it probably isn't real" kind of people.

*le shrug*
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

I've heard of the theory of aliens being more of a spiritual nature.
And that ghosts/spirits/angels/demons are more a inter dimensional force too.

I dont know what to think of them. But I'll just say this for sure.
I wouldnt trust any dead people coming back from the grave to give me a super important message or skillzors.
Nor would I know how to defend myself if they attacked either. Which is the reason I'm afraid of them. >_>

But taking that all into account. It makes for an interesting angle for fiction though. :thumbsup:

Indeed. Now mix Paranormal with Horror and Psychological genre--hauntings often cause such discord with people because of their inability to fight back or their lack of knowledge or resources to do so, let alone if there is even a true solution. Hence your fear as well as the fear of many others that leads to such an interest in the paranormal to begin with. It pulls a reverse psychology on people sometimes.

Well, I won't be a shy boy and I'll admit that I'm gifted, but these tests, I see them as challenges. The ways you can cheat in them are unlimited, the point is not to get cought. If you know your weak points, cheating can cover it up.

I'm gonna be very dumb here and assume.
This started in Toronto or somewhere near the border. Why?

Cause a true -30 Celsius winter for years should be enough to steel someone to not take stuff personally.  :sure:

But seriously I'll doubt it would happen.
Though as along as they dont touch my jrpgs and harems, I'm cool.

EDIT: I'll share a story while I'm at it.
My dad when growing up here said that there two women that were prostitutes here.
Anyways they would do w/e they do and whatnot until one day.

They decided instead of doing usual business they opted to kill the dude and steal all his stuff. They were found guilty and sent to prison for iirc 20 years-ish.
Anyways moral of the story. The sex trade is dangerous for both people involved.
My suggestion is to avoid it all together and if your really that thirsty.
Level up your spit game. :P

Maybe this is what you're talking about?

Basically, a guy from the U.S. wanted to travel into Canada and took a plane to do so. He was stopped at Canadian Customs so that they can check his belongings. Upon inspection, they found some manga in the laptop and the images they found were deemed "child pornography".

A couple years later, the materials he was criminalized for was cleared. The guy was free to go thanks to The Comic Book Legal Defense Fund and the Comic Legends Legal Defense Fund.

Pretty much. I never thought it would get here though.

But then again here in Canada there was that one chick complaing about GTA5 hackers doing virtual rape.
Saying it was the same as regular rape...


What I gathered from all this. I'll never live in Toronto and San Fransisco.
Though I will say. The Dean Blundell show on 102.1 the edge was super funny.

Iirc there was on bit where they were talking about pink eye and I guess they where making jokes about getting pink eye from just looking at something. Aww man...Good times.

Hahahaha, that's why I admitted it wasn't the greatest thing ever. It was a kid's game aimed at kids...and it was ballstastically hard.

But my brother and I were somehow determined to beat the game no matter what. It was cute and amusing. Tak was a good character and so was Flora.
Can't help it. I always try to see a good, positive side in gaming.

Dark Souls is actually relatively easy. Unless you've never played games that actually present a challenge and just blindly jumped into Dark Souls because you thought the cover looked cool. Which is what the vast majority of people did.

An EPQ? Is that in psychology perhaps?

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on December 13, 2014, 10:28:53 AM
EPQ = Extended Project Qualification (doesn't actually give a formal qualification though...)

It was actually from a biological perspective... Cellular machinery, organ development, neural pathways.... that kinda stuff. But I had to do a lot of research into psychology and behaviour patterns. Can't remember much of it now though, but I remember being really interested at the time.

When you experience things first hand though it really does change the way you think.

I did an EPQ too :D THough in history; mine was on American Civil War. It's quite surprising how close the South came to winning at some points... I thought it was completely one sided!!!

The English stereotype of Americans is that they talk very loudly. Even though they speak the same language, there are different words and phrases for things, which can cause misunderstandings. There are also different senses of humor, neither of which I seem to have of late.  :push:

Well if it's the physics one we're talking about, calculus is the study of change.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=danYFxGnFxQ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=danYFxGnFxQ)

And in the words of Neil deGrasse Tyson as he was talking about Newton and calculus, "And then he turned 26."

I know a German mathematician is also heavily credited for his works on calculus, but I can't recall his name. :hmm:

When I came in and they said we'd been robbed, I was hoping they'd nicked the computers so I wouldn't have to do anything. But alas, it was just the good stuff, Pool tables still there though thankfully  :tongue:

You need a keycard to get into the building, but the doors bust, so unless you really slam it shut it doesn't lock. My only concern is that really, since there's only a few people in the building after 12am, so you never know who could get in. Ah well, sure it'll be fine. We'd kill them if they tried to do it again anyway.

I think it's to do with where the majority of his fan-base live... makes more sense to base the merch company in America but make sure that they ship to Europe also.

and don't laugh at $12 shipping! it's taking a $25 (£16) T-shirt up to $32 (£25) which is nuts!

$12 shipping isn't that bad. Duties and Taxes are the worst though. But hey... Buying a Pewdiepie shirt is a one time thing and it's worth it.

Sidenote: At least it is not $90+. Which would be too expensive.

I love listening to Christmas music, I can never get sick of the classics no matter how often I hear them. It's one thing I can't grow tired of, although I have never liked The Little Drummer Boy. I even listen to the Boney M. Christmas album this time of year and I just bought the Kenny Rogers one...

The best Christmas song. I listen to this one at least 30 times every December.

Chores help create discipline and order  :sleep: also helps set my weekly pocket money aside from my job

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on December 21, 2014, 12:26:08 PM
You don't need chores for discipline and order.

as far as the money goes, I don't know how much kids must be earning to afford weed/games on a regular basis, but probably way too much. I spent all my money as a kid on things that cost less than 10 dollars. mostly legos and gundams now that I think about it. games were things that we relied on christmas and birthdays for. gave them more impact once we finally did have them.

maybe that's one of those things they say about growing up poor though. Colors your outlook on money for the rest of your life. I don't know I just can't see letting my kids have a steady stream of income like that.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: GingerStark on December 21, 2014, 12:35:30 PM
Personally it creates order and discipline for me. Everyone responds differently  :hmm:

This is just what I observed in the last few years from people I know. Upbringing does change a lot of things about a character, especially what they do with money. I definitely know I'm tight with it since my family had very very bare beginings.

I'm a pretty forgetful person, so I always need to make myself a list everyday of the chores I need to do that day or I'm bound to forget something. ::)
Especially with all the work that needs to be done with Christmas just around the corner!

When I was young, I didn't get allowance. Instead, my mom would let me pick out a small toy or some candy every time we went shopping. I didn't even really need a reward for my chores, cause to me, it was plenty rewarding to finally be done with them and get to go play or whatever. :tongue:

This is true for me too.

In fact, the very reason I started writing was to win the $50 prize for my age group a local writing contest so I could buy Ocarina of Time on GameCube. I literally started writing for the money, which is probably one of the reasons I'm not finding much inspiration now.

If a pack of 24 is on sale for 5$ buy it. Even if you dont eat it. Other people will. :P

Everyone finished their christmas shops?
We just put our names in a hat and everybody pulled one out and had to get gifts for the person they drew. Each person then proceeded to write down a list of things they want for the person who was getting them gifts. Most of the presents were bought online so it took no more than 20-minutes. Nobody's really trying to hide what they got each other either. Everyone knows it's going to be one of the things on the list. We're just a lot more casual about those kinds of things. Even for my birthday, I usually just ask for a visa card and buy CD's with it.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on December 23, 2014, 11:48:08 AM
start with a nice card. grandmas love cards. then something she can/will use. if she's anything like mine she probably already has too much crap cluttering up the place already, so something that's consumable (in the broadest sense of the word) is good. For instance, my grandma was always a sucker for some chocolate covered cherries.

that or something sentimental. for mine: books about Croatia (the old country). and last year we managed to dig up an old photo of her and grandpa and get it blown up and framed real pretty. did her soul wonders I think.

Gah meant to say 25th. 

Actually did not know that.  Incidentally I wanted to attempt a hike of sorts (of sorts because I want to try it on a certain steep incline rather than mountain per se ) before the year ends.  Anyone knows the sort of things or should eat for those sorts of things  ? Would caffeine burn me out or help out?  Water is obvious but otherwise..
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: GingerStark on December 23, 2014, 10:37:32 PM
Caffeine is best avoided. You need foods that burn off energy slowly like fruit, nuts or protein. I personally love eating kiwis (skin included), a cartoon of milk, prawn sandwich, boiled egg with wholemeal toast, and chicken salad as my main meals throughout the day.
Though I am aware how expensive it is to eat healthy... Especially when beer costs less then water  :noidea:

same thing with the wiring in your brain and with your muscle fibers when you lift weight. lifting weights actually tears the muscle fibers, and they replicate when they regrow.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: GingerStark on December 23, 2014, 10:59:33 PM
Hmmm, I can understand how the brain and muscle wiring works. But it 's just so interesting that blood vessels grow and connect with each other, like roots from a plant but they actually connect! I wish I could see that happening under a microscope.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on December 23, 2014, 11:19:04 PM
i'd imagine that'd be pretty hard to see. I mean it'd have to be living blood vessels, and I can't imagine the process is super quick or anything. you'd probably need to time lapse it.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on December 24, 2014, 09:08:18 AM
It's not very expansive growth really, just to make sure that blood supply is well distributed to active tissue.

In the case of muscle, while microdamage (tearing) and repair does contribute to muscle growth and strengthening, the most obvious and immediate build up of muscle just occurs from muscle cell hypertrophy (cells growing larger) after intensive stress.

That was the most interesting thing I learnt in Anatomy and Physiology last year...

Well I don't agree with Alcohol being forced upon anyone via peer pressure, or the social environment they are in. Nor do I advocate abusing Alcohol.

However, it is a choice to drink, such as its a choice to not smoke, exercise, practice religion, ride public transport,etc.

So you shouldn't really attempt to shame someone for something as trivial as choosing to drink beer dude.

But yeah I agree.
Theres a reason we have the innocent until proven guilty phrase.

Even if it means a guilty man is set free, I think its more better then punishing the innocent.

Just goes back to the simple old problem of law;
-Imprison a guilty man even if it means imprisoning a hundred innocents.
-Release an innocent man even if it means releasing a hundred guilty.

Beer run? Why not a whiskey run!
Beer is cheap.
Plus its more likely we would get a bottle or 2 of vodka.

Really have to put things into context before playing number games.
IE: Say a law changed about a drug minour drug procession that made all the inmates doing time for it to be released; Would that be so bad?
Its not like a bunch of murders/ con-artists being released.

I believe there was this thing in California where the prisons where overcrowded and released inmates early that had "Drug related charges". But leave out that detail or not specific enough and people will be all.
"ERMAHGOD" "ITS NOT SAFE ANYMOAR!!!"
Not saying either positions are completely right. Just saying that there should more attention to detail before making claims.

He'll be back, it's just a busy time of year :)


In regards to the alcohol discussion from earlier, I don't condone irresponsible drinking and don't believe it's necessary to have fun. Last night I went out with my friends for a 22nd Bday party and didn't touch a drop of alcohol and it was still great to hang out with everyone (apart from the birthday girl... who peaked early and got really obnoxious and clingy...). However, if done right and with the right people it can make a night out a bit more fun and also certainly makes clubbing more enjoyable...

It's important to know your limits though and if on the off chance you want to get so incredibly wasted that you can barely stand or recognise who you are talking to then make sure that you have someone that can get you home safe.


I'm sure that the world would do a whole lot better without Alcohol, and without recreational drugs in general. Can you imagine the difference in productivity compared to a world without all these things!? No half days off in bed with a hangover or sat dumb-faced on the sofa high. Not to mention the increase in disposable income that isn't being spent on cigarettes in millions of families! BUT not worth living life fantasising about an idealistic world and being depressed to live in this one, you make the most of what you have or try to improve it in some way. I for one am trying to get my friends to go to the pub for a social drink more often than going to the clubs where we can't talk and they are more likely to end up drunk for instance.

Someone's theory, however, is to start kids off young with alcohol... as in the safety of their own home with their parents. Let them try a sip of the 'adult's' drinks during their teens (most of them will absolutely hate it anyway) and then allow them to have a week drink like a shandy with a meal when they are 16 or so (it's legal for parents to do that at restaurants in the UK). This stops them from going nuts when they reach legal age as it's not such a big deal and they don't feel the need to go overboard with drinking. My parent's kinda did this with my brothers and I and I must say it works if the kids aren't dumb :P

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: liuxess on January 02, 2015, 07:07:49 AM
Is it even possible for a comet to ne green?

I believe that you saw just the light going through the water drops,  which came from ice on the comet (yes,  comets have ice on them) and then the light, which normally is white color,  divided into the 7 colors of the rainbow but the atmosphere. And the heat produced by the flying comet,  corrupted those colors,  leqving only green for your eye to absorb

Vio, with a 10-days untouched wild man beard, comes crawling out of the MR Pub alleyway.   

I'm back~ ;D

Man, I'm missing Vio...I wonder where he went...T.T

Awww. I apologies for being away longer than expected, Aus. ^^"; *Hugs*

I was spending my time off with my parents up in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. To get their by car from my place to theirs is around 8-to-10 hours by car. The original plan was to spend the night for 2 days. However, my mother asked if I wanted to spend a few more nights for New Years. Neither myself or my daughter see my parents that often. So, I though I would spend a few more days with them and show my kid around Ottawa. ^^

Imagine a Manga Raiders house party...

Diet only helps abs.
Everything else for a man to be sexier is to lift weights with cardio after work outs. Or even just upper body on one day and lower body+ cardio on other.

Pizza. I like Hawaiian Pizzas or any kinda of pizza with green peppers/ mushrooms.

How to make a healthy pizza:
Spoiler
Ingredients:
Tomatoes
Whole-grain bread

Optional:
Mushrooms
Seasoning/peppers (does not include any sauces)
Fruits/vegetables


How to make it:
1) Grind/mash the tomatoes into a paste like substance (more like juicy lol)
2) Spread the tomatoes over the bread
3) Add any optional ingredients listed
4) Eat it cold (cooking it can reduce its nutritional value, barely though XD)
Any questions?

Why not... just eat a gorgeously unhealthy and doughy and cheesy and meaty pizza???
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: FreezingCicada on January 07, 2015, 07:46:53 PM
How to make a healthy pizza:
Spoiler
Ingredients:
Tomatoes
Whole-grain bread

Optional:
Mushrooms
Seasoning/peppers (does not include any sauces)
Fruits/vegetables


How to make it:
1) Grind/mash the tomatoes into a paste like substance (more like juicy lol)
2) Spread the tomatoes over the bread
3) Add any optional ingredients listed
4) Eat it cold (cooking it can reduce its nutritional value, barely though XD)
Any questions?
Sounds legit.
But remove the whole grains and turn it into gluten free bread instead. :^D


Also. Dont fall for the gluten free craze. Gluten is just wheat protein that helps bind everything together.
The dude that "found out" the gluten allergy later debunked it saying it was basically a placebo effect.

@Noisey: I agree.
Unless you cant digest dairy or makes you farty.
But do it anyways! Life is to short to not eat a cheesy, meaty pizza!

My parents tried to start my family on a gluten free diet... They had heard from a family friend (who has suffered her whole life from early onset arthritis and has a son that has tons of food intolerances including gluten) that they all feel healthy and clean after removing gluten from their diets (durrrrr).

However it just pissed off my brothers and I... no need for our family to cut out all of the food we enjoy when here is nothing wrong. I'm telling ya, if I can't come home to lasagnes and fish pies and pasta bakes and pizza then I'd end up spending a lot more time away at uni...

I mean what do my parent's think I come home for!? Them!?

I'm still waiting for someone to say their on a gluten free diet but still drinks beer.
Yes there is gluten in beer. Beer is basically liquid bread.
Why do you think beer battered things are really good!?!

I shudder to think of the future when there is no good old fashioned Americanized Italian dishes...
I've already raged when I saw a package on rice had 30% covered with a "Gluten free" sticker stamped on.
Its almost like people dont like to think about their dissensions . Nah, cant be right.

Toast...Beans on toast....Scrambled egg on toast....anything on toast :P

Dry Pasta's are cheap too, don't bother buying brand ones since they all taste the same with a pinch of salt when cooking.

Frozen goods, although not really healthy can be cheap too. 
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

I usually buy a bunch of frozen veggies. With a little butter on top, it really works.

I'm thinking of making a big batch of easy Macaroni and cheese and spreading it out through the week.


Mhmm, scrambled egg on toast....oatmeal is also really cheap too...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Yeah, whenever I tend to make pasta dishes, I make enough for 3-4 servings. comes in handy for work when the only cooking appliance is a microwave, so they're pretty good. Usually last a few days too if kept refrigerated.

Pics or it didnt happen.

Also how are drama lessons? Back in high school days the students where bigger otakus then I was...
It was kinda creepy, tbh.
I personally, would rather friend potheads/drug dealers before most of the people at the class.

Plus the drama teacher at the time later got busted for having a relationship with a student...
The teacher was this freakishly tall 60+ old man. IIRC my friend who was in the class said the girl was some weirder then most students.

...IIRC there was also a newspaper article saying the cops had seized his computer cause he broke his restraining order and found cartoon pr0n and other shenanigans.
(The students would recommend him animes all the time.)

...So yeah, My experinces with drama people have...Always been rather. Plentiful...Which is why I asked you how it is. xD

I need to write better, tbh.

No, he was arrested because of his restraining order. Since he made online contact with the girl and they seized the computer and ran a scan of w/e he had. And that was relevant enough to tell the local newspaper.

But you could get arrested if they fall into CP...Depending on the state/province.
There was some chart giving a basic outline of the subject. Search for it if thats your thing. :P

My brother just replayed the whole game on the PS4 in 1st person mode and said it's like a whole new experience. And for me who was watching and hasn't liked a single GTA game to date, I thought the story was pretty great.

The Destiny bandwagon is pretty much done now though... the only reason they are still making money is because people feel the need to see the complete story they know that they should already own. I hear the PvP is pretty fun though.

I'm a sad little noise atm though... no gaming for me until I finish my work and it's taking so freakin' long... I have a week and I'll be amazed if I can finish it in time...

Waiting for a Destiny complete edition before I buy it.

honestly though, destiny's "story mode" really isn't that short. It's as least as long as any other fps plotline you'd care to name. and it's not like it was incomplete either. It had a complete narrative, just because most of the people who bought the game were too ignorant to see that it doesn't make it a bad game.

Never bothered to know Destiny's story.
I just thought the game looks fun to play with people.
(I love Halo gameplay, only FPS I could get into.)

But you know what had an awesome story. GGXrd.
It was basically 4-5 hours of anime. Even with some of the ridiculous stuff in it.
Yeah I like Guilty Gear. f8me

I wouldn't have a problem with Destiny if it's story had been complete on release. Then they could charge whatever they want for extra on top of that and I would be happy to pay for it.

It's not to do with the length of the story or the amount of content within the story. it's that Activision's marketing strategy was to take a complete story and remove chunks of it to sell as additional content later on. That is not right.

I don't think it's a bad game, it's beautiful to look at and the class system is interestingly done. The parts of the story that are there are actually fairly engaging. But I got really bored of it after about 3 days of playing it and never asked my friend if I could boot his Xbone up again to continue.

It feels really similar to Borderlands to me and only carries a fraction of the fun and charm. The loot system is better now but was completely broken before. And overall it is way too grindy and repetitive in the endgame for me (and this is coming from someone that plays Diablo 3!).

I'm done with FPSs for now though... it's the 3rd person games that are all the rage now!

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on January 18, 2015, 01:20:07 PM
It's on the research project I did in one of the uni's labs last term. I've kinda stopped explaining it to people because although it's cool to me it's not very cool to anyone else :sure:

In short it's looking at whether or not a couple of genes (one human and one viral) are activated by a protein that the Epstein-Barr Virus produces, all inside human cells.

Basically it's just important to understand the workings of EBV because it infects over 95% of the human world population and, although it doesn't really do much in the majority, it's linked to a few cancers including Burkitt's Lymphoma. When you have something that's so widespread, even if it appears mostly harmless, you can't be too careful when cancer is involved.

Anyways the dissertation is laid out like a scientific paper and due on Thursday... luckily it's planned but I've had to rewrite a couple of sections so I'm nowhere near done...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Aozora on January 18, 2015, 02:12:27 PM
Actually I find this stuff pretty interesting because I'm majoring in a medical related field myself. So is the viral gene responsible for inducing the lymphoma in select individuals? Also did your research involve studying how to inhibit the expression of this viral gene, perhaps through the delivery of therapeutic genes or other biological/chemical agents? Anyways sounds like a really cool research project dude.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on January 18, 2015, 02:24:53 PM
The relation to lymphoma is due to EBV exhibiting potent transformative properties on B cells so that it can set up a latent infection.

The viral gene I was looking at is the first gene to be transcribed when the virus snaps out of it's latent state, where it uses the host cells 'machinery' to replicate, and back into a lytic replicative state, where it uses it's own.

However, my lab was actually more interested in the viral protein that causes activation of this gene and is literally going through a list of all of the sites in the human genome where the protein interacts with the DNA to see where and to what extent the protein activates transcription.

Unfortunately it's not such a great therapeutic target for preventing Burkitt's Lymphoma because that's caused by the virus entering the latent phase and not leaving it... But then everything the virus does mechanically is very interconnected... so maybe!?

Hm interesting, could you explain what is meant by latent state/infection/phase? Is this basically when the virus is in a state where it's not replicating/growing? That's cool that your lab is looking at all the sites where the viral protein binds to the DNA, thereby causing activation of the viral gene. Perhaps looking into those sites could allow you guys to somehow deform those active sites thereby preventing the viral protein from binding to those locations.

Post by: NO1SY on January 18, 2015, 03:12:24 PM

Perhaps looking into those sites could allow you guys to somehow deform those active sites thereby preventing the viral protein from binding to those locations.


Well the main part of my specific research was actually because when one of the sites is deformed so that the protein can't bind, in Lymphoma cells, transcriptional activation stops at that site. However in Human Embryonic Kidney cells (which are the cells I worked with), it appears that even with a deformed binding site, the protein still activates transcription... I was basically corroborating a PHD student's work about this (plus a bit extra on the side).

And the latent state is when the virus 'hides' inside cells doing nothing. In a lytic state, the virus acts like a normal virus and enters host cells, hijacks cellular machinery to drive rapid construction of new virus and then bursts out of the cells ready to infect more. In the latent state, the virus suppresses itself and doesn't produce many proteins at all and relies on the cells replicating by themselves and copying the viral DNA as well by mistake. This is slower in terms of viral replication but allows the virus to avoid the immune system. The transformative properties come into play here, because if the cells can be forced to replicate early and right before the virus stops replicating itself, there is a quick burst in viral load for future replication. Cancer would help with this by providing uncontrollable cellular growth and proliferation, but actually works against the virus by alerting the immune system to a problem... so it's just a by-product.

And that's that really... time for me to get back to work now that I have some motivation!

I'm with you there Churro... Can't speak for the life of me :P

So... my sleep patterns are officially screwed... any tips on how to sort myself out please?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on January 26, 2015, 08:40:10 PM
As with most things, practice makes perfect Churro. The good thing about a solo recording? Is you can just do over if you're not happy with it. My advice is perhaps write a script of sorts, comprising of an intro and closing statement. For the bulk of it, you're going to be narrating the actual drawing taking place, which doesn't need writing.

It actually tends to be better that way. Have an idea what you wanna say in the beginning and you'll relax into it, being off the cuff comes across more natural and is generally better received. Hell, Mark Crilley tends to ramble in his videos but thats what I like about them ;P
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 26, 2015, 08:51:11 PM
Thanks for the advice, guys! I'll try writing a little opening/closing script... And I'll imagine my audience in their underwear... ::)
Perhaps that's it, I'm worrying too much... I've been trying to get it perfect, but perhaps I should let myself ramble and mess up a time or two. That's what makes it natural. Thanks again! :thumbsup:

@No1sey:
I know how that feels... When my sleep patterns are screwed, sometimes I just have to sacrifice some sleep. Say my sleep schedule is messed up so I can't fall asleep until 3AM. I will fall asleep at 3AM, but I'll force myself to get up at 7-8AM. I'll be tired through the whole day, but that'll also make it easier to fall asleep earlier. So I can go to sleep at 11-12 that night, get up at 7-8 the next morning, and just keep it going to get into the habit. :thumbsup:

Post by: MK on January 27, 2015, 12:53:52 AM
Stay up until the next day to what time you wanna sleep, meaning you would be awake for more than 24 hours and you can fall asleep at the specified time, then have someone wake you up the the time you want to wake up or your body will get extra sleep and it will keep you awake again...  After a full week of success it will become a habit (the one week habit actually applies for everything not just sleep)

I feel hungry :(  I ate so much dinner... Pot of rice, spaghetti, bread, sausages and some veggies...  I think I might go eat some late night cereal...  Btw the dinner was just an hour ago, fast metabolism+exercise=extreme metabolism/hunger...

You can either start at episode 1 or watch the prequel that was released during season four. The prequel should be the first 2 episodes at the top of the link and the first episode should be on the last page.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on January 28, 2015, 09:22:12 PM
It's a show on Netflix called White Collar. I love it. It's smart, funny, entertaining, suave and adds some Oceans 11 flair into your typical crime drama. It's like the superchild of Suits and Breakout Kings :P

The thing I was finding hardest to write in my story was the bank robberies... because lets face it I'm not even an amateur. I don't even have a real interest in the "art" of robbery outside of finding cleverly constructed and executed plans very entertaining to watch. So seeing possibilities of moves that can be made and different set ups that overlap with the way that the bank robberies played out in history helps me to better imagine how they would work when I through my own spin on them.

Unfortunately, next-door's dog and a random cat are barking and meowing at each other really loudly... so I don't think I'll be getting any sleep any time soon...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Aozora on January 28, 2015, 09:33:24 PM
Duuude, Suits is awesome! A lot of the times it doesn't make that much sense but it's damn entertaining and interesting. I believe the new season starts today actually.

I've heard of White Collar but not Breakout Kings. I'll check them out when I get a chance.

Elaborate robberies and heists are definitely hard to plan and imagine so it's good that you're able to get some ideas from these TV shows. Another good TV show that I've heard of is called Leverage. I've never seen it but I heard that the protagonists of the show are anti-heroes who steal and commit other dubious acts. Perhaps you can check that out too for more ideas and inspiration.

Hopefully the incessant barking and meowing keeps you awake long enough to make good progress on your story :thumbsup:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on January 28, 2015, 09:52:18 PM
Suits was great in season 1 but season 2 got waaaaay to relationshippy... it got in the way of cool lawyers doing cool lawyer stuff... I haven't watched all of season 3 yet so shhhhhhh no spoilers!! :P

Don't bother with breakout kings... it was good (sort of) but it got cancelled after season 2 and doesn't finish properly which is annoying... Damned Netflix keeps doing that to me... before I was watching The Unit with my dad and absolutely loved it, but they cancelled after 4 seasons where season 5 would have finished it all off :(

I'll check out Leverage, I'm taking all the inspiration I can find :) I love stacking up on research especially if it involves watching tv shows :P
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Aozora on January 28, 2015, 10:25:40 PM
Ah that's true...Season 2 was very Rachel/Mike-centric. I won't spoil Season 3 for you of course but all I'm gonna say is...Good ol' Louis. That's all :P

Oh I see. Is the Breakout Kings a Netflix Original series? Is that why they had authority over whether to cancel the show or is it just that they haven't released the new seasons of the show yet?

Haha yeah, TV shows are great when it comes to getting a good mix of entertainment and inspiration at the same time.

For purely entertainment purposes though, I would recommend watching Arrow if you're into some superhero flicks. It's a bit different from the regular superhero shows though because it's got that dark and gritty vibe that the Dark Knight series had. For a more fun and light hearted ride, I'd recommend Flash.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on January 29, 2015, 10:10:00 AM
I watched 2 and a half seasons of Arrow. Was really into it but got nowhere to download the new episodes anymore. Stopped at the Flash crossover episode atm... Good series, loved how dark and gritty the first season was as a revenge story, although lots of pandering to teenage girls by way of abs :P Second season was pretty epic too. I just enjoy finding out what life was like on the island though :)

The flash I feel would be better as a film with higher quality animation... it felt a bit lack-luster like Constantine was before it got cancelled... so I've stopped watching that for now.

Nah Netflix didn't cancel Breakout Kings themselves, the show was cancelled by whatever station aired it/produced it (same with The Unit), but Netflix puts up incomplete series anyway...

Guys, today I rode (on a bicycle) 56.8 miles (91.41074 kilometers for people not in America)...  Would have wanted to ride more but it was getting way too dark (it was night for at least the last 30 mins of the ride).  Of course we had some lights but the guy in front of me didn't have lights and my front one ran out of energy so I ended up in the back because I had the best rear light and one of my other friends was up in the front with his front light (middle guy had no lights)... Hoping to leave earlier next weekend so we could do 100 miles XD

OK... So I've been ill for a little while and, in the confines of my bed, have been watching one TV show tirelessly.

White Collar is hands down one of the best shows I have ever watched and I thoroughly recommend, if you have Netflix... or not... to give it a watch! No explanation I can give can do the show justice but think heists, crime, FBI, suits, genius, great acting and great character interaction. It is beyond brilliant.

Seasons 5 and 6 aren't available on Netflix EU, season 5 is available on Netflix US, but currently you need Amazon instant video to watch season 6... well worth the money though.

Damn... it's left almost as big a hole as House did...

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on February 02, 2015, 01:44:52 PM
Well I still haven't watched the last half of the last episode of season 1 of Breaking bad... and I have no desire to really continue it. Just didn't resonate with me as a show... I'm going to see a theatre act called "one man does breaking bad" at the end of the month though...

I enjoyed White Collar a lot more in terms of pure entertainment than True Detective. It's not as well crafted a story granted... and the casts can't really compare... but I had A LOT of fun and found a lot of intrigue with White Collar. It's like watching an Oceans film or a really good magic act. And I thought they picked great actors too.

Hmmm I'd say that it ties with Sherlock at my number 2/3 spot after House.

Wow, funny I just posted an Ac/Dc song. They just committed mass homicide by rock n roll at the Grammys. They rocked Rock or Bust so fricking hard that it's hilarious that other artists will embarrass themselves trying to follow it. Brian Johnson sounded the best he has in forever. He fricking nailed the vocals and I defecated in my pants when I saw Chris Slade behind the kit. He is a rock solid drummer. Rock or Bust is a great song and this fantastic performance cemented it as a new Ac/Dc classic. Highway to Hell was played far too slow though, however they wrecked the place. This was WAY too good for the Grammys. They don't deserve this incredible new Ac/Dc. Wow to think they could be this good without two key members in the band.

Anyways I just wanted to say that, carry on once again.

Does it need to be close inside Paris???  If I remember right then don't they take shortcuts through the sewers and stuff to get to the laboratory...  Maybe something else is that you can have some kind of transport underground that travels faster...

In the original series they do take shortcuts though the sewer and usually on skateboards and scooters.

Try using google maps to ascertain the distance between the two locations on foot. If they do seem a bit much, you could always use some artistic license and move the school a little closer perhaps?

It's a useful resource and easier to have conversations on than the forum, but the public/MR chats move pretty quick sometimes...

Oh wow! :ohmy:
Back when I lived in a place that actually got snow, it wasn't so much the actual snow/wind we needed to be cautious of, it was the ice. Ice everywhere. Especially on the steps!

I've received a couple anonymous Valentine cards on various sites today... Is that what you'd call... A secret admirer? ::)

A-Ah... I like secret admirer the best... ::)

Must be someone I know in real life, though. The cards had things on them that I like, but I've never mentioned liking them on those sites. Or perhaps it was coincidence. :hmm:
Or maybe they really are a stalker... :ohmy:

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Indeed. ^^

I've thought of a new story in mind that has these topics on a minor level. I'm just looking into the basic rules, what we have accomplish, and still trying.

I know more about cryonics than nanotech. I know that you can't just freeze and defreeze a human-being. The easiest part right now is the freezing, but that itself takes steps and time. Then there's the unknowing process of how to defreeze a human-being without the cells bursting. :hmm:   
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

That's why humans freeze themselves - so in the future they could be defrozen.  You know,  in far far future. Far far.

I think you need big doughy eyes more than a cat tail... unless you throw cat ears and paws in there too and regress about 12 years in age...


But yeah, after seeing Churro's Yandere side in the canon stories I'm not so sure it's safe to guess her age... BUT I LIKE TO LIVE DANGEROUSLY... sooooooo I'm gonna say 17 because that's about when people start researching career options as opposed to just fantasising about them...

Should I or should I not remind that it's Corycaly's birthday...
Maybe I should,  so someone could make a topic,  wishing her happy Birthday,  because otherwise she might accidentally delete the whole forum.
Or maybe I shouldn't,  because everyone will be apologizing to her when she comes back. It would be fun to watch...

As I stated before,  there was not even a one word conversation going between us,  she might not even know I exist...
It would be the same if a stranger put flowers on you parent's grave - it would be  nice,  but still feel awkward.
The awkwardness fades away,  when your friend or relative tells you that a stranger put there some flowers.  So if you would become the relative while I'm the stranger,  she'll be pleased

That's seems so strange for me. My country isn't rich at all,  but we're fighting for our spot under the sun.
In medieval ages,  the Church tried to destroy us. Failed. Then Poland tried to overtake us.  Failed Russia tried to destroy our nationality,  our language, our culture, but didn't manage to do that in 200 years and we broke free after WWI.  Four years later,  Hitler took over. Then Soviets. Then Hitler. Then Soviets. Because Soviets won the war,  they didn't get punished and got to keep us and other countries as a prize. But 40 years later we broke out. Soviets didn't like that. They sent tanks and soldiers to destroy Television towers,  to kill our government.  But we just stood there, empty handed, shouting "Lithuania!" They couldn't do anything. They shot us. They tried to hurt us,  to scare us,  but we stood without fear for the whole night and they gave up.
The point of this story: "Don't trust russians"
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on February 17, 2015, 12:06:52 PM
I got pulled in there...

Well at least you've got culture and history (albeit a nasty one) going for you. Does all your music make you cringe and is all of it mundane and unoriginal? Do you find it almost impossible to find novels in your language? Can you count one up to ten in your language? Got corrupt politicians?


And the kicker...

Got mosquitoes?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: liuxess on February 17, 2015, 12:27:52 PM
We don't have a nasty history,  we have a hard but succesful history.  And to counter your questions:
By music,  you mean our music nowadays or folklore? Because,  even if folklore is pretty normal,  the pop music makes me close my ears and sing the pokemon theme.
If you mean like novels written by Lithuanians,  it's not easy. But if you mean even translations to my language   then it's easy
The question if I can count doesn't have to do anything with my language.
And yes,  corruption is one of hethe main problems here
Mosquitoes? From April to November. But they don't carry any diseases here.

Now,  to comeback at ya:
How many people are there in your country? How many times a day can you spot a drunk politician? Do you forbid for Asian babies to stay in there even if their mothers study in your country? Do you have zools and fleas?

And the kicker...
How many countries want you o be annihilated?

How many people are there in your country? Too many (15 mil i think? But it's dense according to the size of the land)

How many times a day can you spot a drunk politician? (... None.)

Do you forbid for Asian babies to stay in there even if their mothers study in your country? (Eeeeeh?! But no one would want to study in this country anyways. Like why. Just why)

  Do you have zools and fleas? (I have no concept what zools are but fleas? Yeaaaup_

And the kicker...

How many countries want you o be annihilated?  (...Not enough)

Zools are little small spider type bugs that suck blood.  In other words : spiders *censored* mosquitoes =zools. 
They're awful.  If you walk in tall grass or in a forest,  it's a 70% chance a zool will bite you. And they carry diseases which have like 25% of chance to kill you. They're even smaller than an average toenail,  so that doesn't help.
And yeah,  we have 3 mil people.
Also,  we catch like 0,05 drunk politicians a day

Gutted isn't the word. Me and No1sey have just sat and recorded for 3 hours for a new community project here.....and the sound capture on my end has only picked up the onboard laptop mic, not my actual one :( 3 whole hours of unusable audio.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on February 24, 2015, 06:56:35 PM
I'm so pissed off about it! 3 whole hours!!! I've skimmed through it quickly, cuz its gone to the default mic (the laptop one) its picking up the sound of the extractor fan, so its got this constant choppy distorted sound. So gutted about that.  Ahhhhh well, will have to double check the double checks next time :(


The idea is basically a hangout for members. We just have an informal discussion about whatever topic we come up with. Me and No1sey recorded what would've been the pilot episode...only we went a bit too long :P We were going to post it with anyone who wanted to be on the next time coming on, so no restrictions or anything like that. Think it helps everyone to mingle, while hopefully making an entertaining listen too.  :thumbsup:

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on February 25, 2015, 06:57:17 AM
Yeah, it could be similar. In fact my original idea was to produce a podcast. However, the complications of getting a regular group of people together on a weekly basis isn't feasible at this moment.

So instead, No1sey suggested a hangout as it were. It's more informal so people aren't worried by the name podcast and feeling like they have to be up on the news or whatever in the world. Plus, it works well for the community. All people need is a mic and skype and they're set. It helps the members on to integrate and get to know each other, while those who listen also get to know the members better too. At the end of it, we hopefully get an entertaining hour of audio (me and No1sey may of exceeded that a little) and something we can throw up on the YT channel on a consistent basis.

It used to be there was this ISP that gave me flatrate. Still expensive but definitely, definitely more fair. Then suddenly they 'updated' their prices and we were back to buying 2gigabyte bundles and I was giving them the middle finger

I have become completely dependent on Soda pops at this point. But fortunately I only drink 2-3 a day rather than the five to six a day I used to... I also make sure the ones I drink have no caffeine or aspartame. Irrelevant, but I also cut back on my sodium intake as much I as I can.

Drink tea or coffee.

I use to drink it quiet often before I started doing regular work outs.
I was pretty close to getting diabetes too. (Aboriginal people are more prone to it)

I'm use to drink it straight up but every now and then I have a little sugar to it.
Also a sign of diabetes is that your always thirsty all the time.

My family got a cheap bundle plan a decade ago and never let go. Though as a result I still have a REALLY old phone. it's a clam-shell design. I got ancient professors laughing about how they FINALLY updated to a smart phone, acting all smug about it, then I whip out my phone and shame them into a corner.

It's actually pretty great. Plus it's built like a tank. Once dropped it from two stories up onto concrete. The phone took a slight dent. It didn't shatter, it didn't break. It's plastic molding was compacted. It doesn't have a case, it's just tough as stone.


But honestly, the system is screwed over here too. Cellphones (and their providers) erupted over night practically, as such there were no real rules on how to charge for them (which is why you've seen so many different types of plans). It's still sorta like the wild west, but it's getting a little better.

Luckily, I have a jug of filtered water before the pipe froze.

Better make the switch to bottle water.
You could probably see if the local grocery store has a service of 20L jugs of water for 15-20$ ish.
Then return the jug and get a refill another for 5$. Or at least I think thats how it works.

Theres some service that does that here. Most of the peeps from reserves do it all the time.
Or you could get a gym membership and start stealing some of their tap water. :P

If your just doing it for that just get a Planet fitness membership.
Its the cheapest option. And if for some reason you become homeless, just "live" there.

Sleep in there and if the staff asks you what your doing. Just say your "meditating".

After an hour or so, I'm still getting a yellowish color from my water. >:(

But on another note, I've decided that I'll look for an artist to do a few commissions. I'd like to see some of my chibis turn into full characters, but I don't have the skills required to do so ATM. :hmm:

For the Patreon, you'll need to start spreading the words of Queen of Kawaii.

The world shall know... The Queen of Kawaii! (I would make a great RPG character... I should totally draw that...)

For the Patreon, you'll need to start spreading the words of Queen of Kawaii.
Victimizing yourself is also a good hustling tactic.
So well it gets right you under the Patreon google search and paid tons for just breathing.
Plus you dont even have to be good looking to do it! /shots fired

Omg! My cat is dying and needs surgery! I can't afford it! Please, be a decent human and donate!! (Doesn't even have a cat)

^I see people do that all the time. :(


Have you called the, eh... Water people, Vio? ::)
And DeviantArt is always a good place to search for commissions, if you have money to spend. :hmm:

I'm a raider to... if you ever get around to me... you should make Gelmra 1.0 the standard mode - changed by dark magic to appear as an middle-aged man with neon purple hair as long as he is tall, and a neon green suit to stand out amongst a crowd of villagers. Use Starscream as a reference to what type of villain he is.

 Gelmra 2.0 can be a playable hero character.

I'd like to think it rubs off on people.
Its the same mindset when I was going through rough times when I was first starting to get back on my feet.

Doesnt matter how rough things get. What matters is your ability to see things through, no matter what the end objective is.

I just place exercise so highly cause its the quickest way to learn respect and your own limits.

you've just picked a bad location to stand. I've never come across any of the 'truthers' in real life. sure they exist, but anytime something like that happens you'll get conspiracy theorists. Hell, there are people who say that the attacks on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese was an inside job.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: GingerStark on March 19, 2015, 02:11:48 PM
Japan literally cannot attack anywhere due to it's constitution stating something along the lines of it's military being restricted to peace keeping, which was enforced during the American occuption after WWII (If I remember correctly). This can change though, since pressure is growing for Japan to do something about ISIS ever since they executed Japanese nationals.

Japan wanted to cripple the military might of America so that they would stand a chance against them in the coming war, despite them having a massive landmass and a whole wad of people to enlist. Japan knew it was an eventuality that America would join the war... so why not launch a preemptive surprise attack against their means of transportation and fighting?

Turns out, they didn't expect a reply, and retaliation was more than they would've expected. So the Rising Sun fell and was replaced by a glorious anime industry and sadness.

Then there's Canada and everyone else who got no credit for WWII. America just decided to brag about how 'they' won the war despite being late as hell and not bothering to give a damn about the casualties we suffered... if they joined a bit EARLIER. Maybe we wouldn't have so many dead people and so much hatred... MAYBE WE WOULDN'T EVEN HAVE SEEN TIGER TANKS.

Oh well. No biggie. It's all in the past now.

Addition: Japan will launch a surprise attack against ISIS.

All you need to do is cut down on empty calories and you can get defined looking abs easily with light exercise.

But realistically, you should do some form of cardio with some body weight exercises that get the major muscle groups for your upper and lower body. There isnt really a quick "burn unwanted fat quick" schemes. Just stay persistent and humble with yourself and your form.

I wanted to be an Architect but the circumstances at the time I had to leave school before completing grade 12 D: *quietly cries in the corner* I love looking at modern Japanese buildings squeezing the most out of small spaces. AND! Late Gothic architecture, I would like to design something so imposing and grand aswell as seeing it built.

Very debatable considering that Egypt existed for thousands of years and the definition of slave varies between historians  :hmm: Also it depended on who owned them, since the same with black slavery in the Americas; you had the majority who were pretty badly treated but a few minority who had decent conditions.

I got my first Figma yesterday! Chihaya, my favorite character from The Idolmaster and one of my top favorites ever! The figure is much smaller than I expected and very light but I love it! It's very posable and lots of fun. 3 different faces, lots of hands, a stage, a mic, and some weird sticky sweat or tear drops that are impossible to put on. I'm going to have fun taking pictures of this figure.

Here she is enjoying some Michael. The figure looks great on my record player but sadly that's an inconvenient spot to leave her.

I highly highly recommend The Idolmaster, it's a seriously fantastic series. I've never seen the chibi thing and don't plan to, but the main series itself is better than you'd think. It surprised me greatly. I reconsidered my top 15 anime recently (I take my rankings too seriously) and I'd place Idolmaster at #11 behind Evangelion and above Love Live.

Here's another Chihaya pic. She's not too fond of Maiden.

i had an isea for something work related whilst drinking cold beers in the bath a coupla nights ago - within a coupla hrs i was in bed using the tablet to draw up schematics and then built it on prototyping boatd the next morning - took half the day but it worked. thats why no sleeps is great, things get fone rather than just adding more workload!

unfortunately i then had a music idea and ended up spending the next 14 hrs making three new musics so i didjt sleep from wednesday morning through till now...

Fifty bucks as in a medium of exchange that holds no intrinsic value, which is utilized to purchase goods or services. The name of that variant of said medium of exchange comes in the form of CADs which is short for Canadian Dollars.

So this is pretty off-topic, but lately feels like the second or third arc of all shounens are the same; The main character has to save their nakama from their past. I thought about it for some time, and I wanna know whether I'm wrong or not. Here is some evidence:
One Piece
Spoiler
Had to save Nami from the merman who took over her hometown.
Naruto
Spoiler
Attempted to save Sasuke from Akatsuki(I think).
Bleach
Spoiler
Had to save Rukia from Soul Society.
Fairy Tail
Spoiler
Had to save Erza from R-tower.
Magi
Spoiler
Had to save Alibaba from the slum bandits.
Durarara
Spoiler
Had to save Masaomi from Yellow Square

And some more that I have forgotten. Just confirm for me please.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: GingerStark on April 01, 2015, 03:54:04 AM
Confronting the past is an important aspect of shounens, and doing it with a character besides the protagonist allows for exploration into their background and thus gives more depth to the main cast  :hmm:

Honestly, though, we all need a shounen WITHOUT the friendship/borderline homo. Friends may be good for the brain but they shouldn't make like A million copies of it.

Speaking of cliches, Noragami is getting a second season. However, I seem to be the only one who see this show as a Bleach Fanfic.

Action films have been repeating each other for decades now, and they're still raking in hundreds of millions. The thing with us young writers now a days is that we're exploring more Postmodernist ideas rather than going with the norm. The trouble with that is, we often confuse standard devices with cliche  :hmm: It's okay to have some common devices/tropes such as hero looking for revenege or whatnot, the real beef is the way you execute it and how you build upon it.

It's okay to have some common devices/tropes such as hero looking for revenege or whatnot, the real beef is the way you execute it and how you build upon it.
A revenge tale simply comes down to being one of the basic plots if you listen to Ronald B Tobias (“20 Master Plots And How To Build Them”). http://www.ipl.org/div/farq/plotFARQ.html is the first useful hit in google

    The Quest
    Adventure
    Pursuit
    Rescue
    Escape
    Revenge
    The riddle
    Rivalry
    Underdog (the ‘One Against’ in the list below)
    Temptation
    Metamorphosis
    Transformation
    Maturation
    Love
    Forbidden love
    Sacrifice
    Discovery
    Wretched excess
    and 20. (The author puts them together.) Ascension and Descension

And would be classed as one of the ~5 basic conflicts

Man against man
Man against society
Man against nature
Man against self
Man against Machine
Man against time (?)

Rejected basic conflicts:
Man AGAINST man (adult version)
Man against liver
Man against common sense
Man against the wall
Man against smoking in public
Man against aliens
Man against ethics in gaming journalism
Man against public decency
Man against food
Man against lists that just will not quit

I have a question:

What kind of person do you call A? Read the following passages.(B is A's sister)

-Passage 1-
Teacher: A, recite the alphabet.
A: Okay, A,B,C,D,E,G,H-
Unknown:You missed a letter!
*Laughter*
B is also seen laughing, so A blames B for the humiliation.

-Passage 2-
Mom calls A while A is lying down. A gets up but trips over something. A then blames B for her clumsiness.

-Passage 3-
A is printing multiple pages, however one paper goes missing. A then blames B for it.

As you can see, A is continuously blaming B, but the thing is A actually believes these lies. What is wrong with her?

Hey guys. Thanks for answering. I went to check the meaning of compulsive liar (cuz its clearly not my imaginary friend or sibling) and this character isn't a compulsive liar, because compulsive liars know that they tell lies. This character is like hypnotised by their own words.

A is a average/below average narcissistic sociopath with paranoid tendencies.

Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on April 07, 2015, 03:08:30 PM
People are more critical of themselves when they draw than when they write. A lot of writers call themselves writers when they type their first word, where artists keep the fact they are artists under wraps. So when artists do show their work they're usually a little better than most of the writers who first show their work. It's easier to be proud of a story than a drawing when you're first starting out (although most writers who stick it out get a lot more self-critical later on).
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Crackhead Johny on April 07, 2015, 04:58:05 PM
The "success" bar is set way lower for writers than it is for artists (this doesn't include "true artists" AKA fine artists who went to art schools and still lack the talent that god gave the common dog but boy do they know how to market the garbage they create). So while you can write horrific drek for however many years the Star Trek series you are writing for lasts, you still may be totally incapable of writing something good. This becomes a real problem when new writers just ape what they see "professional" writers do with TV shows. Well if a lot of bad writers on TV have characters keep a secret that there is no reason to keep, just so there can be an hour of drama, I should do that too! The main character will be an awesome hero as long as I have the rest of the cast say he is!
This is why writers really need someone to say "That is dumb, rewrite it".
With writing, learning to spot the stupid and rewrite it, is like being able to see highlights and shadows and reproduce them while drawing.
In the end it is unfair that the artist who can't do highlights, shadows, foreshortening, backgrounds, or anatomy will not get much real work in this industry but the writer who is just going to turn the shonen anime hand crank can.. but life ain't fair is it.

9+ hours a day critical artwork and you can be an artist to. It is only what 10K hours to mastery? You do have to do it all with a critical eye, always asking what is wrong and then trying to correct it. So in only 10K mind exhausting hours you all you manga can have Simon Bisley level art.

:ohmy:

Clichestar Galactica? The show was just a big drama boiler they fueled with dead horses and stupid. It was painful bad. A fine example of what to never do while writing.
"Beat more dead horses into the burner we need to up the drama in the drama boiler! I know it is venting dumb all over, it can't be helped at these drama pressures! We are trying to plug the leaks with pure stupid and cliche and it isn't working! DEEEEERP!!!!"
Now don't get me wrong, it took place in space so I watched. I'd watch Oprah if it was filmed in space. I just spent a lot of time yelling at the TV. Well, OK, I have made 2 attempts at Clichestar Galactica and haven't made it cleanly through the series (I have seen the end which was the terrible cherry on top a terrible series).. it is so painfully painfully bad. It makes the "classic" anime Dog Soldier (filmed in Overdrama!!) look good... well OK maybe it doesn't go that far.

It unfortunately uses the soap opera mechanism "Tickle the audience's emotions to keep their brains in the 'off' position". Once the brains are off then you can write whatever. Lost, Reality TV, and the Jerry Springer Show work the same way.

Ahh I've never seen Battlestar Galactica, but if it's anything like Lost... Yikes. The first season of Lost was okay, but the rest... Down the toilet. Waste of my time. :/

So anyway, how's everyone's springtime weather? Record high temperatures here this year... We already put up the swimming pool hahaha. I was hoping to enjoy some cool weather before summer. o_o

Snow melts in the day leaving a slushy nightmare for plebs like me that walk and freezes over night.
Leaving me to traverse walking on pure ice with my honed cat like reflexes while getting ready to dive away from cars cause the city put 30-40 speed limits on the school zones. Which is tied to most of the main roads, leaving people speeding through the once peaceful streets no one use to drive through...
Its not bad, but...Seriously around the highschool? I know some kids are really "special" but come on. They cant be that dumb to challenge traffic.

It wasnt bad during the winter. Just...I cant trust women drivers. No its not a stereotype when its true!
I known a guy that had his hip messed up cause a group of chicks in a van rammed into him.

I haven't got past the first season of Battlestar Galactica, so I can't determine if the quality drops later on  :hmm: I'm very intrigued by it's references to American culture though; particularly that of 9/11 bombings and the Cold War. Personally I'm a big fan of Naturalistic Science Fiction, so it's a big thumbs up from me so far  :thumbsup:

Surprisingly the weather is chilly here, mostly because it's windy and we're on the coast (I'm not sure, I failed Geography :P ) When I went back to my parents last weekend, it was boiling hot, I could barely cope  :sick:

There are no cliches. Stuff just happens. If nothing happened it would be a documentary. Nobody likes documentaries... except people with nothing else better to do.

Side note, I don't like the way you make it seem like they're all bad guys who planned everything out like some sort of future-seeing-skills-of-deduction-masters. Their concern is how to entertain an audience, their budget limitations and deadlines. They don't have time to appease all these meager minority sideline opinions that think critically after the 'moment' has passed. Unlike myself, condescending and defending every major company despite them being money-hungry whor- individuals.

BG was trash.

And I also liked this quote from Lieutenant Starbuck from the original on his opinion of the series.

"And if you don't enjoy the show [...], it's not the fault of those re-imaginative technocrats that brought them to you. It is your fault. You and your individual instincts, tastes, judgement. Your refusal to let go of the memory of the show that once was. You just don't know what is good for you. But stay tuned. After another 13 episodes (and millions of dollar of marketing), you will see the light. You, your instincts, your judgement, are wrong. McDonald's is the best hamburger on the planet, Coca-Cola the best drink. Stardoe is the best Viper Pilot in the Galaxy. And Battlestar Galactica, contrary to what your memory tells you, never existed before the Re-imagination of 2003."

Sorry to anyone I owe reviews or time to... Been ill for a couple of days so took a break. But I'm feeling a fair bit better now.

I even managed to take a nice long 45 minute bus journey to find a Dry Cleaner... Only to find out it has already closed for today... Oh well, at least the weather is good this week :)

I went out to turn off the pool filter, and a long snake slithered in front of me.

Now, I can remove lizards and toads from my house (sometimes dead ones. o_o), I can kill/trap almost any sort of decently sized bug or spider (including venomous ones) if necessary, and can approach most animals around here without fear. But as soon as I see a snake...

I don't dislike snakes exactly, I think many are cute, but... I don't have enough snake knowledge to know which are venomous or dangerous and which aren't. So I avoid all of them. ::)

I think it's just a large garden snake, but I took my dog out with me just in case. She didn't step on it or anything though, haha. She seemed entirely uninterested in it...

Unless its an olive python, which its colour is obvious and easy to identify. Don't touch any other snake in Australia period, it will save your life. Lol also where I'm from there are crocodiles and a lot of them so I have a fear of swimming in open water gg life gg. I always take a shotgun in my boat just in case.. coz there is a cruise boat that teaches the damn things to jump high out of the water so they can definitely land in my boat with no problem

 I think that any name for a character is okay, as long as it can be easily pronounced. For example, Ashleigh. The reader will think, ash: leih. But if you tell them that its ash-lei-gah, no-one will read your story.

Leo dies.

Octavian gets a revil ending. (Retard/Retarded + Evil = Revil)

Nico gets a possible love interest.

Percy gets less book time.

Nico justifies homo.

May want to figure that out. What kind of European culture is this dragon from? When was she born and named in relation to when the story takes place?

Well the English version is Tides of course which sounds alright. The German translation is way too complicated...So you could try the Russian or Polish translations.

Russian - Volna

Being an artist is a full time job. In Japan mangakas work the entire time they are awake just to meet deadlines.
A page week is a better task, however it still takes a long time and most artist aren't ready to devote that kind of time into a stranger's project especially if there is no payment for their work. Those artists that do hop on someones project often quit because they realize this after trying it. Other times though artists feel like their skills aren't good yet and wish to improve before working with someone.

In the container I had it in before it would always flee when it would see me. Now it doesn't seem to care that I'm watching it. I see some trails in the substrate so it must be moving around a bit.

For a name I was considering naming it Kohaku if it was a boy and Therru if it's a girl. Both are dragons from Studio Ghibli films.

@RobinRyuu: That's such a cute snake! And I like those name choices. I was gonna say, if you like snakes, you could do me a favor and come remove the snake from my yard. But... I don't think it'll fit in your tank. It's pretty wide and about 3 feet long. ::)

You should leave it where it is. Where there are large snakes there are also rodents that it eats.

Oh gawd 7 years. I can't wrap my head around staying off them for so long. I'd lose a part of me.

Haha glad to hear there are other people nearly as addicted as me.

I did get into a slump early last year, but picked myself up after someone recommended the Demonata series by Darren Shan. People laugh at Young Adult fiction because its so small and well... made for kids but there was no ways I was jumping back into reading with 600 page novels after all that lack of practice.

Besides, Demonata was legit good. Albeit depressing as hell

Yeah we were considering it, since it seems to be a juvenile coachwhip which isn't poisonous or anything, but I'm mainly concerned about my dog. She is a hunting breed, and I'm not sure how she'll react to a snake, so I'm afraid she'll attack it. Or, if it feels threatened enough, it might bite her. :hmm:

I really like reading novels, I just have a difficult time because reading them makes me really sleepy, so it takes me a long time to get through them. I'm currently reading "I, Robot." and it's been taking me forever to get through it. :(

Only a complete tard gets hooked on their own supply.
And if you did, depending on drug/gang is. You'll likely be beaten/killed.
If not then you'll be robbed by other gangs.

Its high risk, high reward. IE: One moment you'll have nice material wealth, next moment. Your robbed at gun point and all your stuff and supply is stolen with the gang abandoning you.

I've heard the tales and quite frankly. Most people about that life style arnt people I'd normally associate with. And if I had to I'd be on the mind my own business.

Dont know.
Its stories I've heard from my dad and that was usually in his youth when he worked as a mover and trying to not have random dudes pick fights with him. He was practicing boxing at 16 and was stronger then grown men. (20+) That right there was enough to get some dudes rustled.
IIRC he is 50-ish now.

Anyways, the bigger dealers either moved to bigger cities or jailed. While others just dealed lightly and made ends meet.

Maybe the story spans high school and college for the main character, he has a romantic interest, and is somehow involved with a scary fantasy race from another planet, which he has to fight.

@ Head Minister of Mathematics and Ethical Science, how goes your music stuff? And writing?
Music is going well. Getting ever closer to recording and releasing EPs, but it feels like I'm the frog who is always jumping half the distance from him to his destination.

Writing is probably even slower. Just throwing words on a document really. I've got a vague idea for a story, but it's still pretty foggy. I'm trying to find my voice more than anything.

I'd like to return to it sometime, but in what form I'm not sure. I don't really read manga anymore (I didn't read that much to begin with), and I don't read as much prose as I should. I always imagined what I wrote in animated form, but there's little chance of my work getting animated, and I wouldn't even really want to put in the work to make it happen. I'll probably come back to Dream Library at some point, but I need some simpler stories to work with. I'm also not sure enough of my writing to feel comfortable writing a series.

Close. The novel starts out during Damien's (the Lead Character's) last week of high school just before the winter break. and continues on throughout the first trimester of college. In the prologue he has some sort of dream about his long lost Childhood friend, (Aerin) who mysteriously disappears after the torture and murder of her abusive parents. Only their bodies were found at the crime scene, along with a single note saying, "They Beat her to death, and I brought her back. She will be perfectly fine with me. They deserved the Fate I gave them for what they've done to her. -SIN" Aerin's father raped her, and then he and her mother beat her to death... Anyway. Chapter 1 deals with the lead character's last week of high school it starts with him waking up after the dream in the prologue. The dream was more or less a good dream turned nightmare. when he wakes up he's crying and all he remembers is that the dream had something to do with his Childhood friend (Aerin) who he always thought was actually a boy named Aaron. he still thinks that until she shows up in chapter 3. Chapter 2 deals with winter break. He and his little sister (Serafia) live alone together btw. He is 18 and she 12 until chapter 3 her birthday is also the first day of her first term at her middle school. they're parent both work together overseas and have since Damien was 16 so for about two years. The parents always send plenty of money every month to more than keep up with the utility bills and plenty of food. they only come home for Xmas Birthdays and for a 10 day vacation near the end of summer break. Father is an Author and Mother is an Artist. Damien gets robbed and murdered in chapter 2 on the day after xmas walking home from his job at the nearby Video game store which also sell trading card games computers and Manga and American Comic Books, it sells movies and anime as well. he gets killed but some mysterious woman with alabaster skin and Bloody Rose Red Hair and Violet Eyes. Brings him back to life healing him leaving him with just a slight scar shaped like a reaper scythe. the scar is barely noticeable except under the moonlight. He watches he as she disappears flying on huge blood red feathered wings. he then passes out and is woken up  a little later that night by his little sister in their front lawn. she notices all the blood and he passes it of as a nosebleed so as not to worry her.

Ah, you could've just edited your original post.

Anyways pretty dark storyline. I'm wondering why this person is going around ressurecting people. Is it because Damien is special in some way? Or just pure chance. Not sure about the genre of the story too, and the first chapter feels like the story hasn't started towards anything yet, maybe knock the two chapters together?

There is some mystery to work with which is cool. Lots of interesting questions are brought up.

I was ok until they started plucking at the nerves and blood vessels in the arms and I was feeling it in my own, which just creeped me out...

Nah I do biomedical sciences, which is like the biology and chemistry behind clinical and lab based medical practices and research, health and diseases. It's cool but universities treat it like a segue into medicine rather than a proper degree, so they are really lazy with their assessment choices. I should not have 6 exams to do this summer...

Vegeterian? Always wondered how that works. Have no concept of committing to that properly.

Something on my mind: How to get more people reviewing and reading stories on MR? Review swap is definitely one way but I wonder how else to get people interested in reading stories and such.

Especially for the Manga Creations board. There are plenty of stories in development which is good in itself but it feels unfortunate that  stories with completed chapters are left alone. Guess it's easier to comment on a concept than read a chapter online...?

dat British phase. So many Brits. And before that was the "critic" phase, which was great for the more experienced writers, but hell for the newbies. Lots of flame wars and mod intervention in an otherwise peaceful community. Reviewers definitely benefited from it. I think I shed a tear when I came back to find reviewers expressing their thoughts more thoroughly, understandably, and convincingly than before. A lot of people got kind of discouraged from writing/drawing, though.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Still don't really liked that it happened though, but probably a minority in that. It would be good if more reviews still happened though.

They were actually pretty nice outside of mangaraiders (I tried out being a part of SaltyMango for a time), but they would usually state things just a little strongly at first. If you didn't get offended and just proceeded by presenting your piece calmly (if there was a disagreement), nothing would go up in flames. I know a ton of people like that in person (my brother is like that) and know that they don't necessarily intend any harm.

That's probably because criticism doesn't finish stories. Anyway, I was just saying that experienced writers, artists, and reviewers were pushed a little harder to step up their game. It became a problem 1) when people posted their ideas in the Develop Your Story thread, 2) when the stories criticized were by newbies, and 3) when the reviewer didn't know when to back off.

But recently I've just noticed a general clarity and specificity just in the General Writer threads that wasn't there before. In the reviews, the civil ones have gotten more critical without being too harsh, and the harsher, more critical ones have gotten more civil.

Yeah, basically made up of very talented artists and writers, but also very critical, which didn't bide well with a lot of people. Some of them definitely stepped over the line, but not all of them. Most of them left to start SaltyMango. Some of them stayed for a little while. I saw a few online when I was first getting back on here, but I left SM kind of abruptly so maybe they were avoiding me.  :noidea:

I'm afraid you were actually beat by quite a number of years.

The first recorded siblings were in fact my twin brother and I.

This was even before Lego's time, and it wasn't even a thing really, he showed up, made a sh*t post, then left.



As for SM, I remember being on quite good terms with many of them, but as Paipis said, some of them stepped over the line and into straight up trolling territory. We warned off the instigators and the rest followed them off.

To be honest, you go to different parts of England and they feel like totally different places... (Especially the north of the country... can't understand a thing they are saying in Newcastle!...) and England is TINY! So I bet people can tell the difference between neighbouring states???

Anyways, pretty scared about my upcoming exams... no matter how much revision I do I don't feel ready, comfortable with the material, or like I can remember all the content under pressure... Still... gonna spend time going to see Age of Ultron at the cinema today, much better use of my time! :tongue:

     Neither myself or my sister, will be back online on here for the next few weeks. Having some work done on the house and going on a vacation. We plan on going to Japan gonna stay a couple of weeks with a friend of mine in Chiba. Also want to visit Kyoto, and a couple of the other big cities, might end up going to Akibahara. Will be back towards the middle to end of May. I may make a few posts while we're gone though.

     My buddy Ren, contacted me yesterday and said he wanted to properly thank us for letting him stay a couple of weeks with us last summer when he made his first trip to the states, So that we should come stay with him a couple of weeks this summer so he could hang out and show us around. My sister has never been to Japan before and I was only there for a weekend the first and last time I went there back when I was 18. that's when I first met Ren. Anyway, yeah wish us luck I haven't told Aeri where we're going just yet I want it to be a surprise. Heading on out to the airport within the hour.

     Arkansas is still worse than Mississippi and Kansas climate wise I have been to Louisiana Missouri Texas Tennessee Oklahoma Kansas California and Mississippi. So, in my opinion its pretty humid here as well. I hate our summers in AR.

well, while the state is "ar-kan-saw", there is a river in kansas that is spelled the same but pronounced "ar-kan-sas"

maybe it's just a regional thing, but looking at the word without any prior information I'd bed you'd pronounce that last 's' too.

Oh boy... Hasith's on his locking spree again... *shivers*

I've always wondered why there's hardly any leniency to how posters submit their request on the artist board (it's either free, paid, or collab, but I've seen other variants I've never heard of before  :unsure: ) yet no such requirement is made for requesting writers. I get it might be for convenience for the artists who decide to take up such endeavors but most of the time I only see them commenting on the poster's wording rather than taking legitimate interest in the project. Isn't the point of the Artist request section to help people find artists willing to work with them on whatever ambition they have instead of artists practically babysitting and policing policies? There's so many requests that aren't taken and some are just plainly locked simply because of the wording.

Perhaps there could be a section for artists to solicit their skills to the community instead of the other way around. That way people know how many artists are actually available, what they're capable of, and what they're willing to do so that people who search for potential artists know what's up and aren't needlessly throwing threads in that probably won't be answered anytime soon. That kind of hiring strategy would only work for the lurkers around the forum...

Might've went off on a tangent here, now that I've typed that all up  :unsure: maybe it should've gone to the suggestions thread but still I like to hear your guys' opinions on having something like that  ;D
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on May 02, 2015, 01:44:22 PM
well the whole reason we instituted the locking thing is because of forum input, it's not something we just thought up out of the blue. It was requested so we put the rule into action.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on May 02, 2015, 01:45:11 PM
There's actually an  Artists Available board (and Writer's Available). That plus the chance to put up your own artwork in a gallery work as portfolios and people can definitely contact you if you want.

The problem with the requests is the unfortunate fact that people are naive about making requests to get artists.

These problems don't turn up for writer requests alot because they're not that high in demand ... A piece of my soul died saying that.

Perhaps it'd be better if it was encouraged writers and artists solicit their openings themselves rather than have a whole thread dedicaded entirely to that. I don't think anyone's bothered to use those threads on a regular basis.

and a random Q. I found out that some people believe that myself and my sister are the both just me on here. When at home, we always use the same wifi so our IP matches. And here in Japan we will both be using the same Laptop. We carry a cheep little ACER Net Book when out of town for extended periods of time. IP addresses can also change over time.

Well, we PM'd you about the reports for your privacy, but as long as you want to make this public yourself...
We have sufficient evidence against you. First of all, we have been able to confirm you are not in Japan at all. Secondly, the pictures your sister posted are of a popular user on various social media sites that goes by the name "Sydney Moon." According to her page she lives in Miami, Florida. Not Pine Bluff, Arkansas.

https://www.facebook.com/sydneymoonxxlol/about
https://www.pinterest.com/Tyrone2015/sydney-moon/
https://www.pinterest.com/pin/507147608012881128/

If you can prove that this "Sydney Moon" is really a 15-year-old who lives in Arkansas with you, please do.
If you cannot or refuse to provide evidence both of your accounts will be removed and details will be passed over to the authorities. Impersonating a 15-year-old girl on a site with minors on it is serious business.

I found out that some people believe that myself and my sister are the both just me on here.
More brave than expected going public.

Lets put on our deerstalkers and see where it all went wrong and I'd say IP addresses probably had nothing to do with it.

1. This is a site for writers. As a group, we study people and pass what we know back and forth so we can write believable people. So when someone is terrible at writing a teenage girl, we let them know. The one you are writing is straight out of a bad dating sim "Big bruuuuddddeeer! You will be late for school!".
2. You are fitting a profile to a T. I will not go into that further, as it will only be taken as insulting.
3. Picking someone internet famous and using their pic for your "sister" was not the best plan when you can look up photos on google. Internet famous also including being a "queen of /b/" didn't help. You can of course guess what the normal back peddles when this gets caught are. You probably should have gone for "I have a friend in japan who is an animator in the anime industry and gets to direct his first piece next year!" (this would make is seem less likely that you are stalking someone internet famous) and writing a guy with no life is easier though he can't join the forum because he doesn't have time.
4. The accounts showing up at about the same time is how this schtick almost always works. People with your profile cannot keep their narcissism/desperation in check long enough to let one of the two accounts age for a decent amount of time (say a year+). It is a little different when someone gets desperate and invents another person later on down the road.
5. Way too much interaction between the accounts. Have you seen how teenage girls regard their brothers?
6. Bad writing for yourself. You did not beat up a "shady" principal. As a note the "shady" principal/teacher/cop/authority figure in these stories usually turns out to have been touching the girls, though organized crime sometimes comes up for hilarity.
7. "I'm going on vacation". Usually this means "the jig is up and I'm really embarrassed, so I can never show my face here again! :(" and the person is never seen again (...or comes back 2-3 weeks later under a whole new name, insisting they are in no way related to the person who just left/got banned  :thumbsup:). You also could have gone with "I just got called up and am shipping out this week. It is secret so I can't say any more than that.". People who go with "I have 6 weeks to live" are a completely different profile.

I could go on but why?

So for the future.
1. remember how you wrote yourself and keep that to use in the future when writing a hikikomori or comic relief sidekick.
2. hit the gym and spend a few years getting jacked. Vanity helps and people are shallow so when you are buff they treat you nicer.
3. Don't let your narcissism keep telling you you are the smartest guy in the room. Sometime you will get in trouble when it was wrong.
4. Learn to like yourself. What other people think of you, is not nearly as important.
5. Don't kill yourself. Things will get better.
6. Stick around this is a good crowd of accepting people. Impress them with your writing and not with the time you saved those ninjas from a rabid polar bear or when you defended the mall from terrorists before the NSA had the whole thing covered up. Seriously these are good people, I didn't see any of them trolling you to see how bad a story they could get you to make up, and that is what the average person on the internet would do.
7. Do interesting things. Then you have real things to talk about with people. Heck I think you can do an AFF skydive for like 200$.
8. Become a classic punk. They do not care about what other people think... and they get cool hair/clothes (because you can wear whatever you want, once you do not care what other think).
9. Be happy that years from now you will be able to look back on this and laugh. Until those years pass just know you gave writers here more tangibility to a character they can create for their stories.

and remember people more famous than you have done similar things (it is called "sock puppeting"). http://www.theregister.co.uk/2001/05/18/murderer_confesses_on_anandtech_forum/  RIP Denni, you taught the internet to troll the long game.
http://lonelymachines.org/mall-ninjas/

Right now in just about every Jr/high school in the US there are people with your profile doing very similar things. They are our future writers, game designers, lawyers, and just plain average Joes.
Just remember: It is not about how your life is now, it is about how you are living better than everyone else when your 25th HS reunion rolls around.

That said. If on the insanely low chance you are actually in Japan with your internet famous sister, if you got a few pics taken there with one of our known Japanese members, I'm sure that would be accepted by everyone here as proof that crazy things really do happen. (No, making a 3rd account to vouch for your first 2 will not work.. if you do, please use another famous pic like Chuck Norris)

And for the writers here, were you more angry or terrified after reading this?

Just when my interwebs is bugging out on me too.

This is probably something for the discussion table but whatever. Say an 8 year old starts writing a bunch of stories on the forum and he's pretty inexperienced.

 How do you review them? Comment on the general plot idea? Or point out the grammar/spelling mistakes repeatedly? When does it become unfeasible for the reviewer to watch over how something is written and when does it become too much work on their part?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on May 05, 2015, 07:01:46 PM
hmmmmmm, well I would say if the spelling and Grammar mistakes are too numerous to list, then you could advise them to proof read it and correct it, since it would be way too much effort to do most of the work for them. Then you could overlook it in a sense and concentrate on the story/characters/scenes presented to you? That would be my take on it anyways.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on May 05, 2015, 07:07:39 PM
Woooo! Vacant you must have been working hard because you have barely been around at all! Weds or Friday? Cool cool.

Erm, young kid writing... well I guess as the reviewer you have to understand the level they are at and alter your advice to be relevant to that level. It will tend to be simpler like "Try finding some interesting descriptive words to use instead of this one." and "Try to write down why this character feels this way or says that."

If I think back though, I didn't get into creative writing until about year 9... so when I was 15. And no one I knew was that interested in before that age either. I reckon it's fairly unlikely that someone under 11 or 12 will join the forum and seriously be looking to write or develop stories... unless they have a very mature mindset...

Over time.
You were there as the sun was coming up and then they put up lamps when the sun went down. sometimes your off hours were midnight to 5AM. 7 days a week.
60K for summer work is incredible.. if you can survive it.
I quit because my foreman was dumb and dangerous (yelling at people when they went to go drink water.. because they have had no break for 8 hours, at 100+ degrees). My payback to him was to not mention the melanoma growing on his neck next to his glands when I quit. My payback to the company was to not talk about what he was doing with them (they hired me as foreman and then put me on the older guy's crew because he was in his 40s and had been a cable installer(!)where I have been landscaping for 3-4 years by that point as a foreman. I guess they though there would be drama putting a guy in his 40s on a ~20 year old's crew.).
So I went off looking for a easy 10 hr a day landscaping job after that.

Silly thieves, fish don't live long in pockets. Wait.. will you sell walking catfish? lungfish? snake heads? Labyrinth fishes? Maybe there is money to be made pocketing fish?

I vote landscaping for life skills. Once you get a house you can make it look nice.. or you can get into house flipping!

and a random Q. I found out that some people believe that myself and my sister are the both just me on here. When at home, we always use the same wifi so our IP matches. And here in Japan we will both be using the same Laptop. We carry a cheep little ACER Net Book when out of town for extended periods of time. IP addresses can also change over time.

http://classroom.synonym.com/wifi-change-ip-17586.html

http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch001202.htm

So how can I honestly prove that we are different people without being forced to reveal much more personal info? I do not think that it is right. This is a forum site, online. So it is my sister's choice what she actually openly reveals about herself.

Well, we PM'd you about the reports for your privacy, but as long as you want to make this public yourself...
We have sufficient evidence against you. First of all, we have been able to confirm you are not in Japan at all. Secondly, the pictures your sister posted are of a popular user on various social media sites that goes by the name "Sydney Moon." According to her page she lives in Miami, Florida. Not Pine Bluff, Arkansas.

If you cannot or refuse to provide evidence both of your accounts will be removed and details will be passed over to the authorities. Impersonating a 15-year-old girl on a site with minors on it is serious business.



Finally. Quick reaction from the mod here.  This is the second one of these that she catches this year.

Reminds me of the tracing incident. I graciously put arguments out for the culprit's behalf and it turns our he really was tracing. Even in the case of Aeriwhatever, I thought her odd behavior was just her embracing an anime archetype because of identity issues (which I've seen with teenage girls before), although the brocon/siscon thing was seriously weird. I just tend to give imposters the benefit of the doubt, a little too much so, which is why I'm not a mod.

After that he is either offering to hook up the people he wants to impress, or she becomes a "step sister" and the 2 of them are dating (this was being hinted at already). I really doubt he would have killed off her character in the short term.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

You can select the icon "Sp" under the "Change Color" tab to automatically insert spoiler code square brackets too.

ALSO, to change the text in the spoiler tag to something other than "Spoiler" like so:


This no longer says "Spoiler"
HAR HAR HAR

Type an "=" into the first square bracket after the "spoiler" and write what you want as so:

[ spoiler=Happy Fun Times] (no space after the initial square bracket obviously)


Happy Fun Times
:biggrin:

You cannot format this text in any other way however.

     I screwed up, I can't write worth a spit, and I know I cant draw. The jig is up. I'm sorry guys and gals. I meant know harm. I only wanted ideas, for my real novel I want to write. That stuff in my topics, all went towards my final goal. Yes, it has all blown up in my face. No, I don't regret one bit of it. All research is good research. I am just a below-average guy who until the first of this year has been on disability his entire life. I have an average wife and a wonderful son who just turned 1 at 11:59 pm US Central Standard Time. I now work at Burger King.

     I am no one special and have no special talents. I am truly sorry for attempting to mislead everyone. And I shall never again use this last method for my research. All research is good research even if it fails to move one forward, at least you know that a certain style will not work and then its just the process of elimination. Thank you all for helping me, and I am sorry for including everyone with my research. I know that I may be unforgivable, and if that is the way anyone feels, I have done what I could to make amends.

     Please feel free to pick up the story I false-started on. It means nothing to me. The lead character in my true novel is also a writer, named Hanson, and he does have a sister named Aerithe. So yes my "sister" and I are/were the same person. In my novel Hanson and his sister do end up on the same forum site, and their parents are dead. Goodbye everyone. you were all a big help, and whether I am hated now or not, I appreciate everything everyone has done or said for or against me. Thank you and farewell.

Since I'm new I can't really say anything about whatever happened. But you could make a spin-off story of this very thing. You could take your real life events and make them into a story. Even the most skilled writers can get writers block. If you do, I think the best thing is to get out more. Even comedians get some of their jokes from their IRL Events. So if you read this and later on want to make a story about it, you could totally do something like that, and what's better, is it would be something original I think.

I guess what I'm saying is, the ideas are there, but you are looking for them the wrong way. Or something like that. Don't sell yourself short, on something you haven't even started.

Also, while you are working at BK, which is probably one of the most stressful jobs ever. When you get home, try to find a better job for you. Don't wait until you quit or get fired. Get a job you can be a little happy with, and while you are comfortable with your family, then you should pursue your hobbies. Trying to draw or write, or even be creative during rough times, doesn't help at all. Ask me how I know.

Just my 2 cents.

I guess I'll just go back... Find a new song... Edit the video... Re-save the video... Re-compress the file... And wait forever for the video to upload again (and pray). X_X
I'm too much of a perfectionist to just leave it without music smh

At least it's a short video. This happened before with my digital coloring tutorial. That was 13 minutes long and it took 1-2 hours to upload. And I uploaded it twice with different music. Both times it was copyrighted. I just gave up and left that one music-less. ::)

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on May 08, 2015, 08:02:32 PM
I've thought about security guard but it seems unlikely due to the setting. He's not sneaking in, but staying in the place until after everyone else, including owner and employees, has left. I've also thought about robbery, but I'm not sure why he'd be robbing this place. It's not the worst idea, still plausible, but I'd prefer a better explanation. I've thought about him being the owner of the place, in which case he'd know too much about the place already, unless he'd recently bought it, which is probably the most likely possibility. Staying after hours to appreciate the architecture (it's not exactly a bar) of his new purchase alone. He's a rather nondescript character currently, so whatever makes the most sense goes.

I'm gonna reply to this fully trusting what you wrote cause...why not? Dude, if you needed ideas for you story why didn't you just say something or ask for help. I would of happily...anyways, I digress. Below-average, works at Burger King - it doesn't matter dude. No one on this site cares about or judges who you are in real life unless - oh, I don't know - maybe you murdered someone. But aside from that everyone on this site is equal, and treats one another as equals, but since you decided to do this "research", you ruined what could have been a great time for yourself on this site. And lastly, as for being on disability for most of your life, I feel for you. My brother is special needs. But seeing that you have the ability to write so fluently and properly, I'm assuming your disability is not very severe (I apologize in advance if that's an incorrect assumption). So just be thankful for what you have and can do and run with it. Good luck and possibly good bye.

Honestly no one cares or should care whether you were deceitful on the internet about your personal information. Rule #1 when surfing online, all information is untrustworthy (or is it #2?  :-\ ). I'd say this little experiment went perfectly well considering the response, but it's a bummer to have to see you go and hoarded around by the mods or anyone else thereof. At the least, we'd like to see you continue on as a newly-reformed persona and continue to add a little fizz to the community  ;)

Won't give away the exact setting, but this guy needs to have a reason to be at a bar after hours (and after all the staff has gone).
1. He is in the bar because that is where the booze is. Since he was on a bender and ran out of booze he went to the place he knew more was stored.
2. Passed out in the bathroom until after the place was closed. While this seems played out (woke up in mall, woke up in death star, woke up in museum, work up in..) if he wakes up covered in puke the readers should be distracted enough to not notice. A gooey half digested bite of burrito found in his hair should put the cherry on the sundae so to speak.
3. Was making "friends" in the janitor's closet, when he passed out and the other person left in a huff.
4. Fell in through the skylight while trying to make it across the bar to the jewelry store on the other side. Started lamenting how all his plans go wrong when he noticed the booze.

@akane: looks great! the ranks swell!


@churro: They're really starting to pile up.

Somehow even though I didn't plan it, I've ended up with an all female staff. All two of them.


@lego: It's my mature and wise personality that attracts kohais

No, I'm only in division cuz its supposed to be science. Lately, I've been thinking I should quit cuz of the lack of science.
Also, there's no sempai-kouhai relation. Only assistant and ossan. Besides, Coryn's only secretly a 13 yo girl, meaning he transforms at night or something. I'm a real 13 yo girl, like I still can't play lotto and ish.

No don't quit!

It's so quiet in the division at night...I think the 2.0's know


As for the actual science well, it's mostly up to you I suppose. We dabble in a little of everything, so y'know, all the flavors of the science rainbow.

I died! And I didn't drag anyone else into it. You remember don't you? It was after you murdered me! And look, I get it, we both said a lot of things that you're going to regret. But I think we can put our differences behind us, for science. You monster.

Thank goodness the ethical science division has also developed 'mind bleach' so i can wash away that image swearzy put away from my mind.

Side effects include forgetting your name, age, face, all relations and the ability to remember a vague traumatic event.

I'd have headphones on, probably. But I'd get pretty embarrassed if someone asked me what I was doing. Plus, finding an hour where people aren't asking me to do things or wanting to show me things is a bit hard. I live in a house with five other people. Sometimes more when my brother visits with his girlfriend and my other brother's girlfriend is over. My younger sisters and the brother that still lives with us have very little social inhibitions, and don't hesitate to interrupt whatever I'm doing for various reasons, mostly because they're excited about something and they won't wait to show it to me.

Yeah, I'm pretty thankful for them. It used to be that neither brother lived with us and I only had one sister (the other is adopted). I'm glad to have some more people in the house because I was pretty depressed back then. Still, it comes with its fair share of annoyances.

I can understand though... I tend to record when I'm at uni because it's hard to find an hour or two where I won't be interrupted at home. And I believe you about the dogs... Mine is needy as hell too! Your family does sound like sitcom material though Paipis :P

As far as I can tell artists do listen and we really want a full on artist recording. We just have to find stuff for them to do that works over audio...


Btw Lego I could probably join you for some of that "Russian water"... The nerves kicked in as I sat down for the exam and I thought I was about to have a panic attack as the levity of the situation finally dawned on me... A shot of something strong would probably do me good right now...

Well I know the feel Paipis. I have so, so many works in progress, and I haven't written a novel in years. I used to always have a novel I'm writing.

Oh wait I did write for NaNo, but those are absolute pains to edit. I guess I have no choice but to look at them or something.

In any case, really need to get some projects rolling and nicely written up and complete

The security conference is done.
Best swag was probably the aluminum flash light or the back up battery for anything with USB charging.

Funniest swag was the "please steal my cell phone!" stick. This is a device so you can hold your cell phone ~5' from you, so anyone who wants to snatch it has a better chance of getting away with it. I suppose if they grab the stick with the phone they can beat you with the stick should you try to reacquire your cell phone.. though the stick doesn't seem heavy or durable.

I grabbed a pen that blinks many colors as best pen at the show.

I suck at writing horror lol. If anyone wants to continue it please, don't be shy XD

Spoiler
Walking into the quiet store the fluorescent lights flickered. Thinking nothing of it he walked to the rear of the store browsing through the large selection of bow ties and belts. The sound of heavy flat soled Brogues reverberated behind him. Turning he saw nothing but a sharply dressed mannequin. He peered around the room quickly, seeing the clerk standing at the till with a pink lapel and a golden Rolex.

Ahh it must've been the clerk

He though to himself as he picked up a nice pink polka dotted bow tie. Inspecting it closely the metallic sticker reflected an image past his shoulder, a dark figure darting behind a rack of reduced sale jackets. Badum badum his heart jumped.

What was that!?

Turning quickly the mannequin hadn't changed positions. He stared for a short while, it didn't move. The light flickered again, noticing a shiny object on the dolls wrist looking up to the lapel it was pink. His eyes widened, glancing at the till the man was no where to be seen.

It can't be, really?

Seconds later the lights turned off, pitch black. Click clop click clop, the sound of those Brogues appeared again but closer much closer.

F***

"Excuse me sir, I didn't mean to startle you." The man turned around and saw the concerned face of the clerk.

The flooding relief and embarrasment made the man pause for a moment as the clerk spoke to him.

"But I wanted to tell you to leave since it's closing time."

"Ah, right. Fine." The man didn't even remember why he had been shopping for a tie. He walked out of the store and realized he didn't remember when he had walked in here in the first place.

No, that was just the nerves. He was picking up clothes... For a date later maybe?

Anyways he was  done with this place. He needed to leave.

Walking on the tiled floors he heard the heavy footsteps behind him again.

He turned to look around and saw a mannequin carrying a bloody hacksaw and smiling at him with its frozen face. Behind it, the clerk was on the floor bleeding out, his eyes unseeing.

"Oh, it's just you." The man found himself saying before turning away and walking towards the escalators. His footsteps echoed along with the heavy soles of whatever that mannequin was weary, and it was quite eerie-

It dawned on him what he had seen and he froze. Just froze.

The footsteps stopped then.

He looked behind him and the mannequin walked closer to him, raising it's hacksaw.

Frozen with pure fear he opened his mouth and nothing came out. He remained utterly still, his limbs refusing to move.

The mannequin stopped moving then.

The man ran as fast as he could, and the mannequin followed suit. When the man realized that it was gaining on him, he quickly cut to the left ran about ten more meters and stopped abruptly sliding another meter to a halt and then was perfectly still, his heart racing. The mannequin stopped as well but slid straight into a wall where it fell to pieces.

The mannequin stopped as well but slid straight into a wall where it fell to pieces.

In horror the man took a step back from the toppling mannequin.

"Wha-What in the..." stammering a bit before slowly looking around.

Where was he? It was obvious he was still in the shop but upon looking around, an exit or even the entrance was nowhere in sight.

Looking back to where the dismantled pieces of doll lied, the mans heart seemed to skip a beat out of pure terror.

The mannequin was no where to be seen.

Frantically looking around, only one thought ran through his head. "I have to get out of here!".

Post by: legomaestro on May 15, 2015, 01:20:52 PM
The man runs then, past closed coffee shops and electronic stores. Their signs eerily still on. He notices then that he's the only one in the store. Really, how the hell had he come in here and when did he?

He looked for windows now, anything to tell him the outside world existed, but the shopping mall seemed to go on forever, and his thoughts all fled from his mind like scared mice when he noticed something as he passed other stores.

The mannequin heads were turning as he passed. Gradually there was the sound of footsteps that increased, and still he ran.

He headed down the escalator, staying still as he looked at the floor number. He was on the 2nd floor. One more flight of stairs and he'd be at the entrance.

But at the bottom of the escalator were two mannequins waiting for him. Dressed up in holiday clothing and holding scapels in their hands...

Churro's Adventures on the Beach:
I got bitten by a shark!...Tooth. I was walking through the ocean when I felt something sharp in between my foot and sandal. I went up to the shore and found a little baby shark tooth wedged into my foot. Just that tiny one hurt more than it should've... I definitely don't want to be bitten by a whole set. ::)

Later I found a really pretty shell in the water. I really wanted it cause, while I'd collected shells like it before, none were in as good shape as this one. After a struggle picking it up since it was deep down and the waves kept moving it, I showed it to my family with pride. Until further inspection lead me to discover... It was actually a crab. Safe to say that went right back into the water.

Sounds like a pretty exciting day out!... last time I went to the beach (which I pretty much live on here at uni...) it was so windy that my brother got blown over and one of the promenade's restaurant tablecloths got blown over us, food and all, so we had to run away from a swarm of sea gulls...

No body likes summer here. Its so freaking hot, but instead of going out there and licking ice cream and listening to Starships by Nicki Minaj, we're all stuck in a stuffy class room with old people.

Also, I was wondering. Where I study is nicknamed the city of students, because there are so many students that even all the Russians know that if you're black and on the bus, then your stop is the university dorms. Is there another city like that?

Post by: NO1SY on May 22, 2015, 07:10:09 AM
Might wanna change that comment... best not to generalise when it comes to those kinds of things... I hear Russia has some incredibly multicultural cities.


In Britain every other city or town is a University city or town. Some places will have other stuff to do... like I study in Brighton where there is a beach and pier and lots of hipster alternative stores in The Lanes, but after 3 years living here as a student I know for damn sure that I don't want to live here once I graduate because 75% of the residents are students and it just makes the place feel unkept.

Oxford and Cambridge are prime examples of cities that really don't have much else going for them than their universities... they are boring as hell to visit, although if you like the quiet life then you could do worse. A lot of the Midlands cities are half business park and half university so I don't know why you'd particularly want to live there if you weren't a student or working there... And Portsmouth is pretty much all clubs so unless you are really into the football down there or feel forever 18 years old then it's also pretty much all students.

Over generalising a little but there are plenty of cities all over the world that are just student cities

Normally, when we go to the beach, it's usually cloudy, cold, and windy. Dunno why. Just our luck haha. This time it was really nice, though.

It'll be okay, Coryn! You'll get used to the hills eventually.

I live in a really flat state myself, but I grew up in a hilly one. I eventually got used to the flatness here. In fact it's pretty funny when we find a hill to drive up around here, cause there's tons of "It's gotten so cold all of a sudden..." "I feel like we're losing oxygen..." and "I think I can see my house from here!" jokes from everyone. ::)


So, it's currently 94 degrees here (34 for you Celsius users) which means it's pretty hard to ignore the fact that heat season has indeed arrived. Though, instead of accepting that harsh reality, I may blast my fan, curl up in some winter pajamas, and drink hot chocolate while pretending it's cold outside. :sure:

That's a great song but you're behind with the times Akane! I think I was listening to that song when I was in high school and that was like 2-3 years ago. I'd highly recommend one of Nicki Minaj's newest songs "Hey Mama" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uO59tfQ2TbA). It's damn good.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Miles Montgomery on May 23, 2015, 02:58:08 AM
I don't know why, but I kinda like "Anaconda" by Nicki Minaj. Never really listened to Starships.

Plus, when I was in High School, Brittany Spears and the Backstreet Boys were really big. That was like....17 years ago. My God, where does the time go?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Aozora on May 23, 2015, 03:03:32 AM
Anaconda hmm...I don't remember for sure but is there a lot of talk about booty in that song lol? Trying to see if I'm thinking of the right song. Nicki has a very...unique style lol. I remember one of her songs "Beez in the Trap". Bizarre video. She's literally just in a crouched position repeating "Beez in the Trap" over and over again.

Haha yeah Brittany Spears and Backstreet Boys were huge when I was in elementary school. I think Maroon 5 were just starting to get big too. Those were good times. Man, you're right...time goes by so fast.

I like Nicki's verse on Bang Bang. That was probably my favorite hit song from last year. I don't like the word guilty pleasure but Super Bass is one for me. I do like that song, especially the instrumental. It took me a year before I could admit to myself that I enjoy it. It brings me back to summer 2011, same with Pitbull's Give Me Everything, another "guilty pleasure".

It's nice that everyone has different opinions on stuff though, it means no stone really gets left unturned. Then, just by hanging out with people and talking, you find out about stuff you like that you wouldn't have known about or tried by yourself. Sometimes people turn their noses up, but if they are open and accepting then they tend to find that there is stuff that you like that they could get into also. Not just in music though, in everything!

Even if I don't like something, I try not to think of it as crap or rubbish or useless, because to other people it can mean a lot or be really enjoyable or whatever. You can always find one good thing to say about almost everything (within reason... no genocide comments or whatever...).

My goodness... I think I've become 10% more hippy after saying all that...  :tongue:

I used to be a diehard modern metal / modern rock fan, but I've been making a conscious effort to try loads of new things and I'm really enjoying what I'm finding. Still love my metal, but I feel like I'm able to appreciate more things now and not be narrow-minded when it comes to listening to music. I can even appreciate the talent involved in a lot of pop music now. It's also making me want to go back and pick up instruments I put down on account of finding them boring.

I have my bread and butter, 70s/80s hard rock/heavy metal but I don't limit myself like I used to. When I started listening to Bruce Springsteen last year my world of music changed and suddenly I started listening to jazz, Elvis, The Beatles, Eagles, The Stones etc. and taking more chances with the records I buy. I think a good song is a good song regardless. I love pop music to, I can't deny that. I don't have tons of it in my collection but what I have I like. I like tons of J Pop, and some North American pop. I don't like a lot of North American pop artists but every year there will be a couple of songs that stand out to me. I'm looking forward to Carly Rae's new album as much as W.A.S.P. and Megadeth's new records.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on May 23, 2015, 06:24:51 PM
Anime OPs don't tend to fit into genres too well... J-rock and J-pop is a very ill-defined genre as it is... to me a lot of it is just pop-punk and post-hardcore stuff... just in Japanese... with a bit more electronics and synths than usual...

To be honest as long as it sounds good to you and you enjoy it then that's all that matters...

... Unless a band member up and does something morally wrong and ruins the listening experience... I'm looking at you Ian Watkins and Tim Lambesis... Damn... Shinobi vs. The Dragon Ninja and Darkest Nights were such good songs and now I just get left with a bitter taste after hearing them...

The first link is the Tokyo Ghoul OP which is sung by the vocalist of Japanese Mathcore band "Ling Tosite Sigure (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6yFSkcyAkgh8n9o9Ix9ExA)"

The second link is sung by Soraru (http://utaite.wikia.com/wiki/Soraru) who is something known as an Utaite... which is basically a professional vocal cover artist. He does tons of collabs stuff... which is probably why this song is bugging me because I've heard it before but I have no idea where... I should give his stuff more of a listen though, his covers are great.


On a slightly different note (coz this should probably head over to the What Are You Listening To thread...)

4/6 Exams Done!!!! Wow... that sucked! But i'm on the home stretch... and then I graduate... and then... I'm out in the big... scary world...

Post by: legomaestro on June 02, 2015, 07:34:50 PM
You know, when people hear the slogan that MR is selling that we're 'A friendly, inclusive website for manga and anime website' you usually get the right idea at first . You know that we're not really that judgemental here about art, nor do we feel elitist or especially one sort of manga or anime here. We are that rare group that invovle a lot of people who love all sorts of different manga and anime ALL across the world.

But sometimes people mistake that for some sort of weakness and/lack of will

First, for such a site to exist you've got to know that Hasith and Cory didn't just land this site by simply renting a free website space. They programmed quite a bit of it.

Secondly, you've got to know that the internet in general is full of people illbent on being pessimestic about stories, creativity and ideals in general. MR let's you be what you want as a writer or artist without any of that hassle.

The thing is some people mistake that as a weakness or foolishness, but really, MR is about including and inviting a majority of the people that love manga and anime and want to talk about it WITHOUT that constant negativity and bulldust. Seriously. Even I have learnt over time that there exists other sites... But they just don't do it for me.


Somewhere along the line people seemed to have thought being serious or saying something that makes others unhappy = something true and necessary, but no. My first base instinct for joining MR was unadulterated hope for acceptance and fun. NO backpulling. NO deprecation.


For me, it's always been so strange to imagine why it's so popular and seemingly supported to have people be so sombre and stern over freaking anime and manga. For me anime and manga always felt like freedom and epicness rather than the now popular theme of being sombre and critical.


Ranting, rambling, yes. But still thought of from ze heart.

True enough Lego!


End of the day, the part we should all value the most about the site is our ability to just have fun with each other, no matter what form it comes in. Even if there comes a day when no one here writes or draws (may that never happen of course), as long as we still have friendly people who like to talk about manga and anime, I'll be happy to come on everyday and chat.

My friends from home are being losers and didn't book time off work to come down and visit me at uni for it, but I'm just gathering people to go hang out on the beach and get cocktails and stuff so should be fun regardless. Will go home and celebrate with the others twice as hard!

Happy early birthday, NO1SEY. I'm leaving for an 8 day "camping" trip on 5th so I won't be able to congratulate you then. My birthday is on the 10th, btw.

My Moms carrot cake is amazing, but it's kinda hard to make a cake from scratch when staying in a rented cabin so she's going to make the blue box kit cake like she did last year.

Not really, only if you live in the country side or your parents have a history in it. My old mans family used to trap and hunt alot to eat everyday. Rabbit, kangaroo, buffalo, camel.  I enjoy it but skinning does my wrists a number. Too much keyboard action haha! A buffalo will feed a good size family for 2-3 weeks saves alot of money in the long run. An old rifle $500 box of bullets $40 potential savings $2000-3000

I can put food on the table without a problem.  :D /flex

Skinning, hunting stuff, I have no idea if i'd be able to do that. Wish I could, but yiiikes just think of all the effort involved.

Yup we also have the biggest pest Camel population in the world. I can make a pretty penny doing pest control :D Red Roos are good eating greys smell bad D: Its actually what I'm aiming for while I do my Uni part time ;) Get paid to go months on end of camping, hunting, fishing and shooting!!! Get my licence for semi autos too hahahaha, get me a good old SKS and I'll love doing my job.

Well thats the plan anyway also get my helicopter licence on the ball if I get my job out on a cattle station.

It depends on the anime or manga you're watching. The usual popular genres? Then you'll see that usual sort of thing. More story driven ones tend to have characters of all types.

Ever watched something like Ghost in the shell? Or Jin-Roh? The artists truly build up those worlds.

The camel's I have eaten were really tasty.

The reason is a stereotype: Asian women look about the same between puberty and their mid 40s/50s and then they have the "bad year/month" and look like a little old lady.

(http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt23/legomaestro/myFirstMangaAndLightNovel.jpg) (http://s594.photobucket.com/user/legomaestro/media/myFirstMangaAndLightNovel.jpg.html)

My first ever new manga and light novel purchases. I've bought manga before but they were random volumes of ones I didn't really want to read. My first Light novel was Vampire Hunter D and I'm still proud of that, but this is a whole new feel of feel good.

It was so jarring, seeing actual book shelves of manga to buy stuff from. Freaking heck Bleach... I'll start buying up the volumes when I get a job. Otherwise unfortunately I had read them all *cough cough*

Also saw a kawaii goth like girl shopping for manga.

The most jarring fact is that... It's all in German. For one thing it's awesome that some kid is reading One Piece in Germany, for the other I don't know enough of the freaking language, but it'll totally be worth learning to read now. It didn't stop me.

Haven't heard of Opus before. Don't know it at all, which is something I was looking for. I had read a lot of the other manga already *cough cough*

In the future I forsee myself striking up a convo with kawaii goth girl. Yessss. She shall be my Ramona *Strums electric guitar*

Anyways, pretty hyped.

At first I was confused about Tokyo Pop being on those books then a quick Google search tells me they still exist in some places in the world. I didn't know Black Bullet was being published...is it manga or a light novel? I wonder if it's coming to North America. It's atleast worth getting 1 or 2 volumes because the anime was awesome...for 3 episodes.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on June 05, 2015, 01:43:06 PM
Its a light novel, so it's perfect for me insipration wise and while it wasn't the best for me I do like the anime to an extent.

Actually I was surprised about that too but attributed it to me usually living under a rock. I thought Tokyopop was out of business...

I come back on here and hear that I'm being condescending, trolling, and making offensive comments.

I've not seen anything worth fussing over, maybe a couple things that could be taken the wrong way though.

I've always wondered which member of olde you were, by the way. I have a few guesses in mind. Namely, that you're a chimera of all members past. Perhaps we will never know.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Lovus Eternius on June 06, 2015, 02:40:49 AM
I am simply outrageous... and perhaps the type of person who is... impressionable... things people do or say leave an impression unless they conflict with my interests or aren't amusing or worth being... impressed by.

Edit: Though I do believe that perhaps this mod simply never liked me and is using the power bestowed upon them in an effort to get rid of me because I'm such a huge trouble-maker/problem and detrimental to the site's continued existence and tranquility... or so that is how I interpret it. Not sure if they've given anybody else a talking to but the "you" pretty much narrows it down.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on June 06, 2015, 03:48:18 AM
Gelmra, the mod in question who sent you a pm was Churro. You got that message because we had, in fact been recieving reports about you.


Here is the message

Quote
Gelmra,

We've been noticing and receiving reports / complaints about more trolling, disrespectful comments, and condescending behavior from you. We'll be keeping a close eye on your behavior, please be more careful from now on.

Since this is your second warning, the next offense from you will result in a ban.


You're not in the red or anything, just watch the way you step. For example, trying to covertly insult Churro.

And yes, other warnings have been given 'covertly'. We're willing to be perfectly open about them as well if you want.

You're free to discuss it with me, Churro or any of the other mods here or by PM.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Hasith on June 06, 2015, 05:26:52 AM
Nop there is nothing to discuss about it. If we get too many reports about same member we check those and that member gets a warning. You might a warning or two nothing more third is a ban there won't be any warnings or messages.

Mod send you a warning in PM that's just to keep it discreet or give you a chance to explain your self. But if you received a public warning then there are no discussions about it. If you try to downplay it or argue then that alone enough to send you packing for a vacation.

It's time for for everyone take another look at rules we have here (http://forums.mangaraiders.com/index.php/topic,10090.0.html).

Just because mods trying to be nice don't mean they can't take action. Gelmra, better look at rules check, 1.1 and 1.2.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Lovus Eternius on June 06, 2015, 05:41:37 AM
Let me read the reports so I can make corrections. Without them I can't do anything at all to correct my behavior. Don't have to provide names. But I'm a retired assassin anyway.

I would like to receive them via PM please.

Sidenote: I read the 'General Forum Rules' topic for the first time today.

I said I would never come here again, but Gaff posted a new piece, so that kinda dragged me out.

But, No I've had my run ins with her too. I had 2 strikes.
On the seconded. I've been called a rascist for claiming the vagueness of differences between people and the racial background. Not getting into details of it. Or even down playing/ belittling a certain demographic. Just a simple statement. "No, we arnt all alike." Dont believe me? Then why would blood tran-fussions need blood of the same type and ethic background for a safe procedure?

I believe a misogynist/sexist for saying male/female differences. Which is clear as day. I dont go around expecting women to go around lifting as much as me.

Anyways, I know my attitude and behaviour is not the most acceptable.
But they are my convinctions. Cause of which. I'm not afraid to go looking for other ideas or mindsets against my own.
All I care for is an objective truth. To be stotic.
There is atleast a method to avoid the extreme of stoticism as well.

Man, people wave the 'i'd leave but i'm only here because...' flag like we should be impressed by it or something.

When it comes to arguments there's always a gray area as far as those involved are concerned. The strikes come from persistently causing trouble. It's pretty obvious when someone wants to get their opinion across properly or infruirate the other user.

You're statement likely to be taken the wrong way? Hell yeah use smileys.

Too cool to care about that sort of thing? Then you get strikes as far as this forum is concerned. We just don't do flaming or putting down other people all for the sake of some misguided idea of freedom of thought.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Hasith on June 06, 2015, 12:29:17 PM
And I don't think still some members haven't understand the first 2 rules in our general rules thread. If not, there shouldn't be these posts. plz take look at 1.1 and 1.2  again before posting again anything. I'm not going to spoon feed these rules anyone again. Everyone smart enough to read and understand.

Rules have been there for long time but we didn't use those fully. Mods were trying to be nice and reason with you but looks like that doesn't work anymore. So lets try doing things by the book.

Everyone have their own attitudes, behaviors etc. We are fine with that. But the forum has a code of conduct too. when you are in forum you have to do things according to that. Either you adjust or it's not the place for you. I know there will be people who might find MR is not for them and leave. It's sad but we can't make everyone happy. We do our best to make majority here happy.

In past we did try to tolerate people and groups. and unlimited freedom speech. That didn't work so well.

So everyone plz take a good look at rules again.

It's not hard to be pleasant and avoid saying stupid things... we have a "modify" button too so there's nothing you can't correct yourself on either.

On the other hand people need to stop taking things so seriously and getting so trigger-happy with the report button...

Either way, its nice to see some actual mod activity... show's that you don't take things lightly.

The ideas are usually not the ones at fault, and we don't really have a personal investment in the person writing them. But if they're disturbing the peace deliberately and consistently then it violates the rules. Really, we're not talking people have been talking about offensive things. They've been offending people.

But yeah, that's the last of that. I suppose it's not that simple to understand what we're getting at. In case one doesn't know what in the world we actually mean by this, we'll be sure to remind them in the long run. If the reminders don't work then that is that.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on June 06, 2015, 04:11:24 PM
Some people do get offended simply at certain ideas/topics. Recently, a girl on my fb said that if anyone posted about the Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner change and didn't use the "proper" name and pronoun that they remove themselves from her friendlist. Some people are very passionate about what they believe, but let that become a false sense of ideological superiority, and simply want to either shut people up or out of their life if those people say something that disagrees with them. Beware of saying things too harshly or bringing things up when they don't need to be brought up, but also beware of people who play victim, whether for themselves or for anybody else. No matter who is right or wrong, it's often the politics of an argument that come into play when one person reports the other. Either someone said something a bit too hyperbolically or harshly or sometimes without sufficient clarification and stepped over the line, or someone is playing victim.

I do trust the mods to be discerning on that front. But as a citizen of MR, I would urge them to remember this. For the rest of the raiders, just learn to see the perspective of people who disagree with you. That is the best remedy for thin skin I can think of. If you think the person you're talking to just doesn't see logic, consider that they are probably thinking the same of you. If you can hold off on 1) getting angry at what people say and 2) overly strong wording, you'll make more progress convincing them anyway.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on June 06, 2015, 04:19:11 PM
Yeah totally

Well someone like that would definitely be trying to provoke a flame war, so we'd keep a close eye on it. In the first place the community can talk as they like. But if we see it gets out of hand and the person keeps on being inflammatory in general then they'll get a warning.

Arguments will happen and opinions can be discussed. We're not against that.

But what would you think if that same girl brings up the same topic again elsewhere, or starts up a similar topic deliberately?

Just trust that we're not being computers about this. It's not all black and white especially as far as two arguing parties are concerned (there are rules on that front too, for both the supposed 'victim' and the 'perpatrator') . But we do feel pretty confident we'll be able to tell when someone is quite simply, being a prick

So uhmmm....Welcome back Vio!!! Where the devil have you been?

Also, I'm not on as often as I like anymore, but have I missed something?  :confused:

The nature of being offended. It's a tricky one. The problem with it is, that it's incredibly subjective. I think the comedian Steve Hughes summed it up really well, which I'll kindly provide the link to this short clip of his routine here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceS_jkKjIgo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceS_jkKjIgo)

I believe everyone has the right to their own opinions and beliefs, but it goes without saying that there are people out there who will disagree with you on something. My advice for that is in most cases, agree to disagree is the best policy. After all, there's no drawback to that.

EDIT: Damn...Paipis summed it up way better than I did :P

Manimal your music knowledge is scary.

Julio is the father of Enrique! He is a Thrift Store classic. I always see his records there. I don't listen to him but I like one Enrique song, Do You Know. I didn't mind Tonight I'm Loving You when it was played on the radio but the actual uncensored version of the song is incredibly stupid.

Everyone keeps getting inspired by VRMMORPG animes but none of these new or old stories actually depict what games are like or what the people in those games are like. None of the games have rewards and none of the stories focus on core gameplay aspects or what makes the game unique. Most of the characters all have some overpowered methods that nobody else can really get... and the main characters are favored. The villains always suck or are completely diabolical.

I feel like... I should show the world a glorious world... but there is a very slim chance of it becoming an anime... and I don't want a movie.

Key and Peele are great, but more sketch comedians than stand-up. Mitchell and Webb and Whitest Kids U Know are also great in that realm.

Never got into stand up comedians. Wouldn't even know where to start. I've seen some great clips here or there though
where to start?
Lenny Bruce. (not his court hearing stuff)

after that
Richard Pryor
Eddie Murphy
Bill Hicks
Dennis Leary (doing Bill Hicks's stuff)
Sam Kinnison
Amy Schumer
Earlier Margeret Cho
Tree (good luck finding anything by him)
Early Jake Johannsen (after he got medicated/therapy he was devoid of humor)
Chris Rock
George Carlin had some bits.
Richard Jenni

Plenty on Netflix but most of the comedians are not funny or not reliably funny.

Dennou Coil. Though it's sorta spoilerific to know that. Still, that was a phenomenal Cyberpunk anime for me.

One does not always require a reason to be. Just be. By simply being an observer you change the word around you. Also, at the very least you are housing an ecology of microorganisms in your body that depend on you for life! Cherish your importance! Trees are begging for you exhale precious Carbon Dioxide, minds are waiting to be outraged by your outrageousness!

Post by: NO1SY on June 21, 2015, 05:19:22 PM
I stopped wondering in that way a while ago. I just think "Gotta make the most of what we have in this time period and gotta leave a mark." For me I hope that will be contributing to some scientific research that furthers human understanding of our universe and furthers scientific knowledge in general. My name on an important published paper will last much longer than I will.

Warning: Philosophy ahead...


Spoiler
It's all about how you view self worth and what you feel ok with accomplishing in this lifetime. Significance and purpose are just something humans tell ourselves we have over other organisms... they are human creations and fallacy... really, we are just here to reproduce and pass on genetic information as part of the physics of the conservation of energy, simple as... so transcending that basic biological and physical purpose (more so than just saying that we do) is what's important - and that's about how you choose to spend your lifetime and the kind of mark you want to leave on the world and the human species.

Some people want to experience things for the first time in history. Some want to follow religious ethics in the hope there is a reward in a different life/in the hope that they will lead a life of good morals. Some want to leave records of their existence in the form of contributions, discoveries, creations, achievements etc. Some just want to live and some just try to survive...


So asking why you were born to participate in this century is a bit of a hard question to answer... because it was just random chance... and only your actions and what you choose to do while participating in this century will define that you were born at this point in time... if you can't define that you have lived a life, once you are gone it'll be as though you never existed. The why, what, when and where only matter if people can remember the who.

True dat :P But it's important to know that there is always something you can do. No one is ever truly worthless innately. And something as simple as writing a paragraph of story that others enjoy and that you are immensely proud of, or drawing a piece that people enjoy the sight of and that you are happy with, can be all that it takes to feel like you have made a difference. Hence why MR is freakin awesome!

Interesting perspectives.

I never said that I was saddened by this wondering or even disturbed by it. I am aware of the reality of life and my existence but still, I can't help but wonder... why is this century in particular... so significant that I should be born now? And do other humans see the world in the same way as I do? I realize that many people of my ethnicity and others committed suicide because of thoughts like that... but why? Life is futile? We die anyway? What is stopping any of us from coming together to stop death from happening even if for a little while longer?

"Too many complications... not enough funding... not enough resources to sustain population without medium of exchange."

"Living too long... brain can't handle more memories... get bored of living?"

We are our own obstacles it seems.

Increase longevity of brilliant minds, have more brilliant minds on planet at once and then solve all of these problems one by one. How can anybody get BORED of living? Just find something else to do.

On another note... I intend to have my brain preserved indefinitely, or at least until I can have the memories and data uploaded into a robot or a new brain in a living organism/clone.

Which movie was that where a guy uploaded himself to become an artificial intelligence? Man, I've always thought of this idea that you have basic A.I's that live on after you have deaded.

well the problem is that while it's easy to 'preserve' a body or a brain, defrosting it is another thing entirely. the freezing process pretty much turns your cells to mush if they ever get defrosted. so the key is not only for us to figure out how to upload a mind, but also how to take them out of storage without destroying them.

He's in a new film that's coming up this year or next... "Black Mass" i think it's called. Looks gritty and dark and pretty cool.

I think he's great, if not a bit weird... thought it was a shame he wasn't cast as Dr. Strange... but Cumberbatch isn't too bad for that role... just not American enough!

Now if only I had money so I could go and see all these films!

@Gelmra: I apologize in advance for bringing religion/spirituality into the fold here because the discussion has been purely logical/philosophical till this point. But one of the main tenets of the religion I follow is reincarnation...So, maybe you can take solace in the fact that your soul is immortal and that you've been born in countless centuries before this one and will be in countless centuries after? :biggrin: Or not. Don't feel like I'm trying to impose any beliefs; just offering a perspective.

And as for what's stopping us from trying to stop death, I do believe there are efforts being made to prolong life despite the roadblocks you mentioned. But I feel that preventing death is not quite practical or worthwhile.
(http://cdn5.coachingtohappiness.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/world-population-graph.jpg)
Our population is growing at a rapid rate; it has more than tripled in the last 100 years and will continue to grow exponentially until we reach our carrying capacity. Imagine if we prolong life, or perhaps, even attain immortality. Our population would explode and there would barely be any resources to support us.

I'll check out your story when I get the chance :)

I tried thinking from that perspective but I ORIGINALLY thought that it was flawed to think that way. Is there an constant/unlimited number of souls out there that are just looking for a body? Will I even be reincarnated on Earth or will it be in another part of the Universe? Does the number of souls stay the same, but others just travel here from the other parts of the Universe? Uncertain... but religion does give certain individuals at least some level of a peace of mind. I just don't want to be reincarnated because I won't be able to keep the memories I have... I like my memories. Nnnnrgh... I wish to be preserved and revived some day. Not reincarnated or... decayed.

NO MATTER... I will worry about this and have a life-crisis when the time comes.

So my dog has been super weird the past few days. She's been hiding more than usual (she usually only hides during thunder storms), panting a lot/being generally anxious, growling a lot (especially if she can't see us), and suddenly barking at the most random times (including when she's just chilling in my room or while I'm trying to sleep... Thanks, dog...) and it's not her "I heard something" bark, it's her "I want something" bark but I can't figure out what she wants! I've fed her, let her outside, pet her, played with her, made sure she's not hurt anywhere... I think something's bothering her but I don't know what. Absolutely nothing has changed, she's not sick or hurt anywhere... But as long as she's awake, she's been bothering me like this... And she's been doing it for days... What does she want?? X_X

I am always overwhelmed by massive amounts of feels whenever I start to think about the trials and effort people put into their work... and whenever I see something inspiring or awesome. Even acts of human heroism as they cast aside all selfish desires to help another of their kind are awesome.

They say that crying is a way to deal with emotions, but I cry tears of joy all the time... I must be a really emotional person... or maybe I've been so cold and solitary that I'm not used to feels.

Her name will be Axie Jack and she will be a shrine maiden who undergoes a drastic career change and becomes an assassin who slays a selection of military officers and then a dragon will burst out of the ground with long purple-hair and destroy her entire village.

The Main Character will then found a fellowship after being given a Ring of Power that contains the Dragon's life force... the Ring of Power must be thrown into the mountain of Velok in the nation known darkly as Rodom. The Dragon's name is revealed at the end... Gelmra Jack. It is her father... tearjerker... plot-twist.

I already have a director in mind.

Director in Mind - Spoiler
Michael Bay

Edit: Before I forget...

In secret... I have made an alternate account after asking that my old one be deleted. I stayed away from this site for a few months and then returned as Gelmra, The Outrageous. Since then I have undergone various trials and have turned away from the blighted life of a Magma-spewing demon that turns trolls to ash and corrupts minds so far beyond return... while earning the hatred of all those who opposed my will. Yes... yes indeed, turning away from that path was a necessary evil to realize my noble plot towards world domination.

Thanks. It's not the original banner Grim gave me that we were using on InkBlazers and Facebook. But when I started the Smack Jeeves one up a friends from a chat room said she could set it up for me since I don't know HTML. So she made a new banner using the old one that would work well for SJ, and also fixed up the layout and stuff. She did a good job. The characters and logo themselves are by Grim though.

Also included that I'd go full on Walter White if I reached my target and if i went beyond I'd also move on to my eyebrows...

It's just bad timing with travel planning and all... I get it back tomorrow morning though!!!

Apple fixed it right up really quick and I managed to get them to cover the repair cost outside of warranty under EU Consumer Law. (My advice from now on: if your warranty runs out on an Apple product, do your research about your local consumer law and ask them about it. Apple seem to be very lax about it and will still fix wear and tear that isn't a result of accidental damage for free!.)

Thinking about doing some DIY upgrades to it also with any leftover money I have. Gonna upgrade the RAM from 4Gb to 16Gb and my mechanical Hardrive to an SSD. Should give it a new lease of life and keep it going another few years :)


Anyways gonna go jam with my friends tomorrow, been a while since I played music as part of a band, but I'm excited and it's gonna be fun :D

Can anybody recommend me any good video editing programs? Right now I only have Windows Movie Maker cause that's what came with my computer, but if I try to do more than just adding clips/text/music, the program crashes. I figure it's about time I invest in a better program, but I don't know where to start. The only programs I've ever used are WMM and a free trial of Sony Vegas. :hmm:

(P.S: My budget for a program is about $50.)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Fireblazer on July 07, 2015, 01:26:37 PM
Hmmmm not sure if this is the best advice, but I'm a pirate lol so I suggest you pirate a good program to see how it works and all and then if you're that supportive you can buy the full version... Not sure if you can get a program for 50 bucks, not too familiar with the video-editing market... Oh and there's this free cool program called "Lightworks", you can try that one out and the full version is completely free! hope that helped XD

No.

Youtubers usually don't misspell things intentionally. Most do it by accident because they fail at life. Others use text talk. Some don't capitalize their 'I's.

Statistically I'd estimate that 33% are the common 'whiner'. 17% are haters. And the remaining 50% are actual fans who hate the other 50% for making simple mistakes about spelling of names in video game lore or get their facts wrong on some other matter irrelevant to the video.

I think I find it on a lot of 80s bands' videos. I'm 90% sure I saw one on a Cocteau Twins video. Maybe another for The Cure, The Chameleons, and others. They usually go hand in hand with "this music is depresisng you people have never experience depresison."

Point was its normal to have those feelings. And sometimes self reflection and alone time is what's needed to get over that slump. Other than serious clinical depression you've got to just buckle up and ride it out. In this day and age everyone's looking through pcs or smartphones to keep that stuff at bay. Not to say talking to someone online is useless, but its probably better to get a handle on them yourself

Sounds like a lot of people you have to talk to... imagine living in the forest, alone, with no shower - no internet for sixty years.

Not like shaving legs is a bad thing...

Cyclists shave their legs to be more aerodynamic...  Can't remember but I think my friend said you save about 2 seconds for every mile... Cycling races tend to be like 60+ miles so you would save at least 2 mins...  This Tour de France is 3,360 miles... even if it is just 1 second a mile you save... that is still alot of time...

Nah nah Coryn. Just convert your legs into metal. Imagine how smooth that would be. You don't need to cycle if you install anti-gravitators into the soles. And you can change the color too.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Standard gold bars are 12.4 kg, so 12400g divided by 13 like you say... It comes out to be 953.846 bottles to make 1 bar
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

So in Britain, one gold bar amounts to approximately £23846.15 in Goldschlager prices.

Pizza night at Vio's house. My kid is staying at my parents' place tonight. So, I can chose my own toppings tonight! ;D

I'm picking where to order from tonight. :hmm:

What toppings are you gonna get? :o

Post by: Vio on August 01, 2015, 02:38:30 PM
For my pizza I like to get some meat lovers toppings, such as ham, beef, and sausages. ;D

Speaking of pizza, I'm getting my pizza from Pizza Hut. How come the American version website looks a lot better than the Canadian version? Why are they not the same?! :o >:(

Ok, here is what I'm getting:

14" Large Pizza with Added Crust Stuffed Crust, Extra Pizza Mozzarella, Whole Ham, Whole Italian Sausage, Whole Beef
   
Breadsticks - Large
With With Cheese
   
Pepsi 2 Litre Bottle

7up 2 Litre Bottle
   
Hershey's Chocolate Dunkers®

@MissChurro

When my kid and I order pizza, we have a rule to add 1 veggie for 1 meat. So, we normally have olives, peppers, and  mushrooms (shhhhh, she doesn't know that mushrooms aren't veggies. ;))

Mushrooms are a type of fungus. But that doesn't sound very appetizing so I say vegetable anyway. ::)

Post by: MissChurro on August 01, 2015, 03:02:52 PM
True. I think most people use the terms "vegetables" and "fruits" loosely anyway. ::)
Though many don't actually know which is which so I enjoy parting my knowledge upon them. Seeing a few people's faces was really priceless when I taught them that cucumbers and tomatoes are fruits, not vegetables. :tongue:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Mushrooms should be veggies. I mean it just feels right. And don't you dare remind me that Tomatos are fruit!!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on August 01, 2015, 03:16:57 PM
There's a difference between botanical and culinary classification. Tomatoes are classified as a botanical fruit, but a culinary vegetable. Lego should be happy to know that they are classified by US law as the latter. Mushrooms are a culinary vegetable, but are not plants, and are therefore not studied by botanists. So neither fruit nor vegetable biologically.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on August 01, 2015, 03:19:27 PM
For once! America's stubborn nomenclature has its use!

Culinary vegetable... I'll take it.

I wonder if there could be a case where something with meat could be classified as a culinary vegetable because of its lack of sentience or inability to communicate with anything other than itself.

I have the bad habit of buying frozen pizzas and eating a whole one at a time since they're like 2.50 for a large and have no real substance to them at all.

the grease really isn't doing me any favors. *works out harder to compensate*

You always could of reported them to the police for "Disturbing the peace."  The police would pretty much just tell them to settle down
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on August 02, 2015, 07:33:18 PM
We never reported them ourselves but I'm honestly surprised I've never seen a sheriff at their house, cause they don't only disturb the peace but keep their dog off the leash and set off fireworks, both of which are illegal here. I'm pretty sure a sheriff even lives in my neighborhood but never did anything. We did report them to other authorities though (HOA and the original homeowners cause they're renters) and I think they were evicted, considering their move was so sudden. I'm pretty sure the whole neighborhood reported them, especially after their (unleashed) dog tried to attack another dog being walked. That was a few weeks ago and suddenly a couple days ago they threw all their stuff in their truck and left. :hmm:

So a few days ago I started helping Dragonnair, from Tapastic, with proofreading his comic dialogue. Big job since he is not a native speaker of English, but it's kinda fun since it's like a puzzle.
Going to try to find the mistakes he missed from the chapters that he has already released.

Link to his comic, if anyone is interested.

Oh gawd I thought I was alone seriously T-T today I just bought a bunch of gel coloured pens. Argued in my head over it even. And I bought a SECOND box of fineliners even though the other one is new and hasn't been finished ...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on August 05, 2015, 04:07:22 PM
You should see me in art/stationary stores. People have literally had to hold me back to keep me from putting everything into our basket. My sister has had to inspect all of my orders from coolpencilcase.com to keep me from buying the entire store... ::)

My problem is that I tend to hoard notebooks/journals too. I've got a Naruto notebook, a Tangled journal, and who knows what else sitting on my shelf from 1-2 years ago because I want to use them for something "special" but nothing's ever come up... Everyone's always like "Just use them already!" but they were expensive and they're special. >.<

Haha yeah. Conversations between me and my friends/family at a art/stationary store usually go like:

"Do you need the thing?"
"No..."
"Can you afford the thing?"
"No..."
"Will you use the thing?"
"Probably after like two years of owning it..."
"So, should you get the thing?"
"...Yes I'm going to get the thing."
"cHURRO NO"
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on August 05, 2015, 04:16:47 PM
Oh gawd exactly this! Exactly this! Though I suspect you guys are worse off than me.

I swear I saw a book, liked the paper it had and ignored the girly leather covering. I bought it and threw away the cover and started writing in it... Just because of the paper darnit. I don't even need to be enticed by the paper.

And the worst bit is a journal with let's say star wars on it. There's no escaping being labelled as a geek but my eyes just fixate on the thing for ages...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on August 05, 2015, 04:20:41 PM
I've totally bought books just because of the paper... I really like paper... I suspect that's a huge reason I got into art/writing in the first place haha. So much paper involved, it's heaven. ::)

Wow, so cool! My friends have always told me I should work in the Clinical Psychology field, because I'm practically their therapist anyway haha. I don't know what it is about me, but lots of my friends and sometimes even people I barely know flock to me just to vent and hear my advice... Even though I'm not that educated in the field yet. They say it's just my personality... It's strange. O_O  I just worry that Clinical Psychology could get tiring after awhile. :hmm:

Assistant is a good start! It's like getting your foot in the door to climb to the top.
Thank you! I'll definitely take you up on that offer sometime. :thumbsup:

So, a little off topic, but gah i'm so excited tonight!


I got to enroll for year 3 of university today, and we're finally going to be doing the Psychology related work that made me fall in love with Psych! Forensic Psych & Biophyschology (Brain psych)!


Also going to be doing a new biology subject about Human Physiology! Hyped.

Psychology is a really cool subject. Like the Stanford Prison Experiment and Milgram Experiment. Really cool stuff. They made a movie on the SPE I think recently. Need to watch it; it got great reviews on rotten tomatoes lol.

And I'm going into my third year of uni too!! *highfives*

Ah! Good job on getting into third year! :) What do you study?


Do you know the name of the movie? I haven't heard of it. To be honest though, after year 1 listening to lectures about classical psychology/experiments gets a bit boring! I already know most of what we get told about these subjects :L

It's an old Odyssey van. And yes, it was completely totaled, just like my Accord two years ago. To give you an idea, the entire rear-half of it is smashed in. Because crashes keep happening to me, the insurance company is reluctant to pay off for yet another vehicle, and now I have to negotiate with the other guy's insurance company for damages.

On top of that, I have to pay out of pocket for the tow company to store my wrecked car until the investigation is finished and rent a new one until then.

If you want to make a manga then make it :D.  You might think the artwork isn't good but it forces you to practice more towards your goal.  When your draw a manga you will notice there is lots of improvising but don't skip out on drawing a picture because it's hard though.

It was most likely your ceiling fan as you suspected. When electric appliances malfunction or overheat, they can emit ozone, a strong chemical gas. It's supposedly toxic if you breathe in too much of it, but since you opened your window, you're fine.  :thumbsup:

I was sitting at my desk today and there was a sudden nose-stinging chemical-y smell, so I ran out to check the rest of the house thinking it was smoke or something else dangerous, but then I realized the smell was only in my room... I turned off my light and ceiling fan, unplugged everything from the wall, and I have my window open and a standing fan running and the smell is dissipating but it's so strange. :ohmy:
I'm wondering if maybe it's my ceiling fan motor burning out or something? My ceiling fan has been making strange noises lately as well. :hmm:

It was most likely your ceiling fan as you suspected. When electric appliances malfunction or overheat, they can emit ozone, a strong chemical gas. It's supposedly toxic if you breathe in too much of it, but since you opened your window, you're fine.  :thumbsup:

Thanks! :thumbsup:  Good to know it's not something more serious. Though... This means I'll have to go without my ceiling fan for awhile until I can get it fixed. I'll just have a standing fan... In summer... Where it's 90+ degrees Fahrenheit every day... Fun times. :/

Man, I'd say yes and no. If you created her as a character for a story, then that's probably incest. XD

If you created her specifically to be your girlfriend, then that's a no. It wouldn't be incest, just crazy and weird.  :tongue:

Post by: MK on August 14, 2015, 01:32:19 PM
It does seem like a forbidden love T.T  Creator and created...  But there are so many benefits for a 2d girlfriend...

1)  She does whatever you tell her
2)  She never talks too much
3)  You can see as many naked pics of her or dress her up in whatever as long as you draw them
4)  If you have a body pillow then you can have sex every night (note: sadly, the sex is not real)
5)  If you do get a body pillow version then you only have to pay once
6)  She always has a young body (some younger than others)
7)  If you're a girl, don't worry this applies to you too because yuri is acceptable
8)  I am randomly making excuses to justify a 2d girlfriend
9)  Why are you still reading the reasons
10)  If you still are reading the reasons then just go get one already
11)  Don't get one if you're married, probably should have put that one earlier

wat

I'm the same age, in the same country, so perhaps it's dependent upon area or social circles, but he's like Pink Floyd, Nirvana, or the Beatles to many of the people I know. They know his name, and wear his T-shirts, but don't really listen to his music, or anything like it. He's a brand teenagers wear to look cooler to their elders, which irks me a bit. But I'm not complaining. More exposure is more exposure. But it's hard to tell these days when people genuinely like a band, or just found a cool shirt at Old Navy.

I have one Bob Marley record, but I only listened to it at a time when I probably wasn't all that receptive to it. Should probably try it out again, but I'd like to try getting into dub before traditional reggae.

Smell mystery solved. Wasn't my fan after all. After some investigating today, turns out it's the heating pad I use for my back injury. It overheated and burnt, I guess... I'm still not sure how something that small managed to make such a strong smell though... It filled my whole room and the hall outside it. Also don't know why it would smell so chemical-y. o_o
Oh well, I'm just grateful it didn't burn my back or actually catch fire. ::)

I'm looking at some videos about elements and just finished a video about erbium. And I've learned 2 things about erbium:

1) Erbium places as a crucial part for the function of the internet. As light travels down though fiberwire and sends data from long distances, it weakens to the point were light cannot sustain information. So to fix this problem, erbium is used for every 50km~ to amplify the signal. This is because when light interacts with erbium atoms, the atoms get excited and and gives out more light once the light passes by.

2) Apparently, the copper and fiberwire that are close to erbium and shallow water attracts sharks. It seems that do to the amplifying light and electromagnetic field gets sharks curious and chew on the wires and copper.

Essentially, sharks are able to eat the internet as you can see in the pic below: :o

Exactly. What goes on in a galaxy far, far away is way more significant than anything that goes on in Earth. Yet my teachers only laughed when I suggested watching Star Wars instead of miring through our boring, insignificant history course material.

Even the aliens are insignificant...  :ninja:

I mean, look at the size of the Death Star! The UFO from Independence Day doesn't even come close to its size!
Shows you how advanced Star Wars actually is compared to the rest of existing futuristic science-fiction universes... and I don't even have to point out how that is still tiny compared to the rest of reality  :-X

Spoiler
As a matter of fact, it looks kinda silly that a tiny X-Wing managed to blow something up of that size with nothing but proton torpedoes into a thermal exhaust port no larger than an average human...  :sure:

I'm considering making a topic that would basically be the artists equivalent to Aozora's Review Swaps. And so I have 3 questions.

1. Would anyone be interested?

2. The Members Workshops description says,"If you are a member with over 500 posts you can create a drawing workshop here." I don't quite have 500 posts yet, but almost. So should I wait or should I make a topic now? Or...

3. Is that even the right place for that kind of topic?

Alright, I'll post the topic sometime soon, but first I need to figure out what kind of system would work best for this. Since it's likely that the ones giving the reviews have a higher skill level, it would be hard for the person who got the review to return an equal review. Plus for improving art sometimes it's best to have several different people looking at it rather than a 1 on 1 system.

I don't know the context of what you're talking about but to be fair, the chit chat topic is for general banter. Even if I didn't chat to Vacant regularly he would see it as a joke pretty easily. If he didn't and took offence I'd apologize.

Critiquing other people's work is a little more serious as it's something they've put their hearts into. I think comparing that to a joking comment I've made on this topic is a little irrelevant so kindly don't rope me into whatever you have going on.

People even started drawing fan art to commemorate the event.

"Uncle Joe was a loyal machine, the lapdog of Hasith the Great. T'was on an average morning that things went wrong, Uncle Joe, our loyal helper... had betrayed us.

Hasith had been banned from Mangaraider territory, despite him being the creator, there was nothing he could do... Uncle Joe had taken hold of our beautiful land and its treasures. We were at the mercy of a robotic tyrant..."

The cake was too thin and sticky, next time I'll double the recipe and make it drier. :hmm:

I'm sure you're just underestimating yourself, but even so, that's why you keep on drawing panels and you'll keep improving and improving. It's why some people recommend not waiting to start a manga, to just jump right in and start cause drawing it gives you tons of experience to help you improve. ^-^

You'll even see it in popular manga, like Attack on Titan, how the artists weren't so great to begin with but are much better in the recent chapters. I'll see if I can find some examples...

Post by: DeAngelus on August 26, 2015, 08:52:14 PM
I'm quite surprised too that it's possible to embed a video on a site ... well sort of as I know all forums are capable of it because of codes specially made for video hosting site like youtube (same can be said for VK & Vimeo) . I know of it's HTML coding , but not for BBC though ... I know it's 'YT' or something ...

So it turns out making a manga is harder than i thought. Every panel i do sucks :L
I've went through this misconception as well . But like MissChurro said , the only way to deal with this is keep on drawing more , in which I've been doing so all this while . But since you're in the early stages of it , go slow in the progress . Analyze the complete pages first & seek ways to make it better (based on how skilled you are on illustrations) in your next page as opposed to stoking out pages after pages . Unless you're capable of on-the-spot , snappy problem solving , this is the next best way in producing better drawings on each panel . It works for me (I'm not a prodigy , you know . I just love to draw ...) , it might work for newbies trying it out .

Also , manga/comic in general , aside from the obvious fundamentals inherent in them , is pretty similar with how art can be further improved after getting the basics well grounded but with a lot more emphasis on experimentation as there are multitude of techniques & tricks (there's a lot of it) for you to discover & make use of it . But of course , not all works for everything , hence experimentation ...

... I'm trying to get it done though with what little free time I had ...

... And how did I end up here ?

Academic Forums are the worst (Activity-wise). I took an online college class and either 1. The professor just assigns us reading, then gives us midterms and finals based on said reading (in which no one ever asks or answers anything on the forums), or 2. The online course is so demanding that you'll be asking questions left-and-right only to get vague answers from both students and the teacher (Which might or might not help you in easing your confusion).  :unsure:

Then again, that goes for just about every college class...  :sure:

Haha, liquid medicine is usually more tolerable cause you can gulp it and get it over with quickly... The problem is I have to take a pill that dissolves on your tongue... It takes like 5 minutes to dissolve and you can't eat or drink for 15 minutes after so you can't even wash out the disgusting taste. :(

@Churro: No joke, my mother used to give my brother and I this cold medicine that tasted like someone took stomach bile and mixed in some sugar. it haunts me to this day.

^The pill tastes like this but an artificial orange flavor instead of sugar, with an addition of intense bitterness and some sort of plant taste, like dirt or something. :/

If you want another headache, google "the planck length"

Short story short: It's the smallest measure of length possible, because below the planck length, the universe goes "frothy"

Show me nothing of the sort. I've converted to the church of 'never watching anything past the first trailer'.

Abstain from the movies you want to see, let them hit you with full power on the day of ultimate arrival! Don't let your experience be ruined by trailers which fill you with sights and images that will scratch at the back of your mind the whole movie! "when will this happen?" "where did that scene go?" Don't let the whispers win!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Better yet, don't watch any trailers at all. They have a tendency to spoil the entire plot before you get to watch it.  :ninja:

In mythology, Pegasus is a winged horse, and you can be equally magical. Everything, even the tiniest detail, has meaning for you. You like television, movies, and stories--anything that feeds your dreams.

That's what I have in my room. I had 2 of the same area rugs for each of my desks. Now they have too many stains, like ketchup, lead dust, and pop. So, I bought a large area rug to replace the two. ;D

I'm going to take a wide guess and say that it'll be a kawaii theme? :hmm:

How about some stickers? There's this one material, I can't remember the name of it :push:, you can use to craft characters and sew it onto the cover. :hmm:

How a view of worlds and existences change when you are corrupted by the shadowy figures that feel cold, frozen, like velvet. Cold Velvet that slices into your pure flesh. The pain numbs your mind, allows razors to enrapture your soul in it's purest nudity after being thrown into the blackest hell imaginable. Then the monsters tear your body up from the inside out and turned you into something that reflects your darkest thoughts... their darkest desires. Something coats the inside of your throat in hot slime, and a greasy film every time you look into the mirror. And yet... I enjoy what has become what I am.

Bright and Outrageous?

No... obsolete.

Dark and Contagious.

I have returned.

Kawaii theme is indeed the goal. ::)

I have a wide array of craft supplies at my disposal (our guest "bedroom" is a craft supply storage room when nobody's visiting haha) the problem is deciding which to use. :hmm:
I can make my own stickers with our sticker machine if I want kawaii stickers and then I can add ribbons and decorative tape and stuff... Or I could draw on it, of course... But I'd only have one chance to get it right. Or I could make an origami paper collage on it... Or I could put scrapbook paper over it (I'll probably do that on the inner cover no matter what I do on the outside)... Too many options! :(

Not sure if this was a smart thing to do, or if I am stuffing up a cake.

Basically, it is my mothers bday tomorrow. She is coming down to visit. The kids are excited, Grandmas coming down, yay......... But I decided to make a cake. And not counting the fact it is currently 3am and I am still baking, I tried to do something different.

I had this crazy notion of cooking a banana cake, and a chocolate cake, and make a choc-banana layer cake with fresh cream and raspberry jam in the middle. And you are hopefully thinking that it sounds awesome, as I did when I started.

Well, I made my banana cake, following a recipe, and it turned out pretty good. Aside from sticking to the pan a bit.

But due to that success I decided, to make the chocolate bit, I'll just swap the mashed banana for melted chocolate. I am no baker, and in my head this should work. But chocolate and banana arent exactly the same, so I do not know what will happen.

I suppose I will see in 40 mins.

Cake ended up looking alright, but the chocolate bit was very heavy (physically heavy) compared to the banana bit, so I used the banana on top. We'll see how it tastes.

We use fake leaves/fake leaf wreaths and garlands, fake pumpkins (until Halloween, and then real carved pumpkins), plenty of candles, autumn crafts we've made, etc. ;D

Haha! Man, even mine's not that bad. Just messy, mostly some clothes on the floor and an untidy desk... The main thing is the laundry basket in the middle of the room. I hate putting away laundry. I always procrastinate on that to the point that I just put everything in the basket, set the basket in my room, take clothes out as I need them until they're all dirty again and then I wash them and once they come out of the drier, I start again...

Haha that's still something. Best way to practice is to somehow hunt down a language speaker using the magic of skyyype. Though I'd say italki is more reputeable and safer to go with >...> so long as you're not cheap like me and are willing to pay for some teachers haha.

You already checked out the Fluentin3months blog? The success stories are inspirational. There's a girl who's learning Russian and I want to see if I can emulate such week by week progress, achieving small manageable goals.

Yup, that's always nice. They're pretty supportive too, I've noticed. o_O
I actually have spoken to a couple Japanese people, and while I was only able to say things like "O genki desu ka?" "Arigatou gozaimasu!" and "Watashi wa Churro desu" they were all surprisingly impressed... Like they were clapping and going "Sugoi! Sugoi!" and everything haha... One even called me kawaii. 8)

Yup, the problem is that at my level I could only teach people who already have a decent level of English. I'd need to learn a lot more Japanese or another language to be able to teach them to speak it... I could always tutor writing English I guess.

Ohh right! The survey went well, only got one negative review out of 20-something (and I think I know who it was...) so that means it'll sell well I think. Now the problem is getting enough products drawn, printed, laminated, photographed, etc. by mid to late October... X_X

Well sounds like a decent idea in any case. Me, without certain *cough cough* reinforcement I'm way too cowardly to show my face or speak on the interwebs

Ah that's great to hear >...> minus the suspicious negative review.

Ah health is very important although I'm not the best to give advice. I went to the doctor a few weeks back and was diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in my left hand. I guess that what happens when you type too much everyday.

Thankfully, it wasn't too serious so I didn't need surgery. Just a splint and some physical therapy. I'm fine now, although I still think my grip in my left hand is a bit off.

I wonder if it's possible to make some kind of "modbot". It would only have the power to temporarily take away an user's right to post a new topic or comment on another's topic. So it would temporarily make the user into a guest in a way. :hmm:

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: swearzy on September 17, 2015, 02:41:42 AM
I think it would be hard, if I were to go and reply to a bunch of topics would it think I was spamming?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Synctual on September 17, 2015, 03:01:36 AM
I was thinking it'd only take action if the user was reported by more than one member. That way, we'd just be able to report the spammer to Modbot and it would take away it's right to post and comment.

It'd only be a temporary punishment since the user that was reported would have to deal with one of the real mod's decision on the matter. If it's a spambot then the user would be banned by a real mod, if it's a real person, they'll have to go through judgment.

I do think it will be hard to make such a bot, but it could possibly be beneficial. Maybe?  :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Operative13 on September 17, 2015, 03:12:22 AM
There's this thing at another forum I know that when you first sign up, your first ten posts have to be approved by the moderators before you can post normally. The spammers could then be weeded out since no true spammer would take their time to make ten noteworthy posts before spamming everyone with ads.

Then again, most other newcomers would not like the idea of waiting for mods to approve whatever posts they have from the get-go.  :sure:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Synctual on September 17, 2015, 03:27:33 AM
That would be pretty neat to have on this forum. It would definitely help out with the spammers. But yeah, a lot of newcomers won't like having to wait for their posts to be approved.

But maybe that could be changed up? It could be changed to where only a newcomer's Welcome Center post would have to be approved by a mod. That way, they can post freely after introducing themselves to the forum.

But then again, that would mean newcomers would only be able to post and comment in the Welcome Center, until they're approved.  :unsure:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Operative13 on September 17, 2015, 03:32:57 AM
Not to mention spammers don't care where they post as long as they have their spams on the forum...  :-X

it'd make a neat plot for the MR canon. Spam ninjas attacks at night while the mods are asleep, and the mods have too much work on their plate. They build a mod bot, but then wrestle with questions of their usefulness when the mod bot can already do it all.

Ooh... in that case, I would look in all of the places where the bag WOULDN'T be. It seems counterintuitive but you'd be surprised what you might do when you're not aware of it... like putting things in places you don't remember putting them in because they're usually never there.

At most a few houses will carve pumpkins and put them out. We like to have people over for a dinner party to celebrate or something usually...

I love Spirited Away, so I'm definitely intrigued now! I'll check it out soon!
Yup, it's actually Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at Disney World (I'm so excited I love Disney!! We're taking a trip there for my birthday.) so it repeats many many times throughout the month of October. The first week is just when we got the tickets. ::)
I would take a picture but I don't have good lighting anywhere here >.> I got it at the Japan Pavilion in Epcot (Have I mentioned I love Disney?) and it's a really light purple with sakura flowers all across it and some pagodas in a few places. It's very pretty, I like it a lot!

Who are you going to cosplay?

I'm too old to get away with it now, but since it was against neighborhood rules to trick or treat above the age of 12, when I was about 13-14 I wore a costume that covered myself fully so nobody could tell. 8)

@MissChurro-

I highly recommend it. OTGW does a great job of leaving a lot to how you speculate on the story and what you pull from watching it.

That does sound like a lot of fun. And your Yukata sounds gorgeous! I use to have one, but I think I misplaced it when I left home.

I'm going to cosplay as Amethyst from Steven Universe. A bit nervous too since I've never done anything with body paint before.

Ohh that's sad. X_X I hope you find it again sometime!

Wow, cool! Purple is my absolute favorite color, so cosplaying someone like Amethyst would be like heaven for me. ::) Have you cosplayed before?

My shop? Yup. X_X I'm opening in mid to late October and I don't even have half of what I originally planned to have at opening. I already missed the original deadline as well (I was originally going to open January of this year) so I definitely don't want to miss it a second time. It's not even that I've been procrastinating, it's just that so much has come up I haven't had the chance or been feeling well enough to work on it. I guess I'll just have to lower my goal of how much I want to stock at opening. :(

Still searching for those watercolors. Today I found one lone tube of paint that wasn't in the bag with the rest. The bag is still nowhere to be found.
Why was this one not in the bag? Where is the bag?! Find out (maybe) next time on... Detective Churro: Case of the Missing Paint.

Detective Churro: The Finale.

Churro has searched long and hard for her missing watercolors. Under things, on top of things, high, and low... She's ready to give up when she sees something. Something blue. She laughs, of course it's just her imagination. But when she reaches for it...

What is this?!

What's your project about, Coryn? :hmm:

In my major (architectural engineering) senior project is basically a class that goes and says "take all that stuff we taught you and do it". so we're designing a small police station (I say 'we', but it's an individual project. we just spend so much time working on it together that it's like a 'we' scenario). We're doing the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and special systems (telecom and the like).

basically we're taking a building from the stage of "just got finished by the architect" to "hand it to the contractor to start building it".

I'm designing a police station, is the short version.

nothing to be nervous 'bout round here. the key is to just remember that people likely wont flock to you right away. you're new, so people aren't necessarily willing to go out and spend time trying to help someone who might not stick around.

get out on the forum and read and review some of other people's stories, that'll help introduce you to others and form bonds.

I once got it to 100%, but it still wouldn't recognize as being complete. And because it never got finished our populace always just kind of gave up and we would lose.

Berenstain. Berenstein's close, but to me it doesn't fit the pronunciation (stein is more german, like steiner   :unsure: )

I see, I see... I'm currently studying something called the Mandela Effect, which is an occurrence where a startlingly large group of people clearly remember certain things that didn't really happen. The biggest case being the Berenstain Conspiracy, where the majority of people who have read the books/seen the show in their childhood recall it being spelled Berenstein (I, too, remember it being spelled that way) when it has always been Berenstain. There's also the Jif theory, where people took a poll and the majority swore Jif used to be named Jiffy, although it was never once called that in its timeline. Several people say this is proof of alternate universes/reality, but I don't believe that, I think it's a psychological phenomenon and I'm super interested in psychological stuff like this. :ninja:

Was discussing the Mandela effect with a friend the few days ago, was rather fun to go down the list of what people thought branched into alternative universe with a few friends to see what was different and why we would remember something wrongly, was pretty easy to figure out. Most of the time it was either the brain filling in spelling gaps and making assumptions, or just the news misinforming people or mistaking one famous person for another.

I sometimes misremember Jif as Jiffy, but I never feel like it's changed when I find out I'm wrong. My parents always pronounced "Berenstain" as "Bernsteen" so I remembered it as "Bernstein," until I found one of the books while digging through things one day and thought the person who printed the title was drunk.

Ugh this day...

Yikes, I hear ya.

My house foundation is clearly having issues, what with cracks on the floors and walls that are suddenly growing by the months and yet the guys who built the house (aka the company) said there's nothing they can do since they said the foundation is moving...But not to the extent it needs their attention....Again, after seeing the damages.

...It's prety disheartening. :(

Oh NO1SEY, I uploaded all the short stories from my collection, I hope they have that feel good vibe.

My problems are, in comparison, trivial, but to continue the downhill train: I got locked out of my Facebook. Somebody, somehow, logged in and changed the password and perhaps the security question. I no longer have access to the email that I made the account with so I have to stupid stuff like sending a picture of my ID while covering up crucial information they could be liable for having. My computer camera is too blurry to make anything readable, though. So I either have to get a scan or somehow terminate the old account and start a new one. Fun stuff.

wouldn't entirely mind restarting my facebook to be honest. Kinda sucks to lose all those pictures (I assume you have pictures), but honestly, I got so many non-friend friends on there it's not even funny, even though I'm sure I'm still on the low side count wise.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on October 01, 2015, 12:36:31 PM
I'm pretty sure I'll never talk to some of the friends I have on fb ever again, but as a sort of reminder that we bumped into eachother once in one form or the other I leave them there. At the very least to say Happy Birthday when the days come around. I don't like going on deleting sprees to keep 'only the friends I happen to be friendly with presently'

I hope nothing sensitive was linked to the email address. That could be really problematic...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: NO1SY on October 01, 2015, 12:43:59 PM
Aww man Paipis that sucks... (prompted me to make sure to add my current email address to my account... been screwed over too many times by not doing that for other things...). Hopefully you work out some sort of recovery.

I go through about once a year and purge my friends list though... I know FB is about keeping and rekindling connections and stuff, but I only really have it for messenger and events so if I'm not talking to someone on at least a monthly basis then they probably aren't really someone I want to be seeing posts from on my news feed... (I think I sound pretty harsh there though...).

The DOOM SPIRE©, as a corporate entity, is liable for all breaches in privacy it commits. Perhaps we can settle, however. The minimum I'll accept is legal jurisdiction over the entire world with interest.

You misunderstand, the DOOM SPIRE is not a corporation. You cannot sue the DOOM SPIRE no more than you can sue the house you live in.

My buddy and I who have been working on a few different visual novels are finally getting past the "dude, we should totally do this eventually" phase. Now I've got to figure out the hows and whys and whats of making your own VN. In light of that, I'm going to combine Inktober and National Novel Writing Month into a Visual Novel crash course.

I went to a Halloween party last night and actually saw some really cool anime cosplays, including a really good Hinata from Haikyuu.

Yeah I definitely want to try a real cosplay someday. I've done Halloween costume type things, but not full on cosplay. I'm hoping to go to a local con next year or the year after, because I want to check out what the Artist Alley is like and see if I'd be interested in selling there. I should try to put together a cosplay for that. :hmm:

Gothic Princess Eternal.  It's either a romantic comedy... Or a dark twist on what it means to be a princess in a fantasy world
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on October 07, 2015, 05:35:59 PM
@Echo hahaha... I would not nearly be brave enough to attempt that. Tzefa's interests me though

Gothic Princess Eternal
Laura's Prince Charming came 1000 years after the curse was placed. She had been waiting for that single kiss that would wake her up from her eternal sleep for that millenia. For the first five centuries all was as expected: But the original evil witch had passed away. And in an unfortunate turn the kingdom had been conquered by another land. And in the span of history - civil wars, world wars and technological advancement - the spell had weakened and the Princess had gained some form of consiouscness. She learnt soon enough that it was called 'locked in syndrome". Something the scientists suspect she had when they found her.

Long gone was the world of swords and magic. Laura had the whole opportunity to be horrified at her situation, to fall in to despair, to rant and cry and gather herself and cry again, but all in her cursed state of sleep. She could not move, could do nothing, until an assistant decided to kiss her. Admittedly, his intentions were much more perverse than intended. But between the weakened magic and his obssessive 'love' it did the trick: Laura was awake and aware. She had spent a good part of the last three centuries simply listening to her surroundings. She had been in several places over time, and now she was in the Demitrus Research Laboratory. She knew quite a bit. Thanks to the assistant's boss - Professor Murakata - she got to listen to the radio so she wasn't completely out of touch with the current world. In fact, she knew a little too much. She knew that it was 2015. She knew which football teams were playing in the league right now and about the anime season that was currently airing. She knew which countries were still busy killing eachother and most importantly that there were no prince charmings in this world, that humans sucked, and that she needed to get out of here and hopefully find a job. Or maybe jump off a cliff. Depending on her mood.

"Where's the toilet?" Was her first question to the astonished assistant. It was a real biological need that asserted itself as soon as the curse wore off. After that business, she'd get to the escaping the lab thing.

Such a bother

Ages 4-12: Dress up and go trick or treating.

Ages 12-18: Don't care about halloween since you want to be cool and you don't care about anything.

Ages 18-30: Woo, Dress up and go out partying up town!

Post by: MissChurro on October 14, 2015, 03:59:26 PM
I once had to explain to a kid about the times of VHS tapes (she was shocked by the fact we had to rewind the tape after each watch.) and portable CD players.
"What do you mean you had to carry that around with you? And change out the CD all the time??"
"Yup, and one time, mine fell out of my hoodie pocket and broke. I was devastated."
"Did you have to buy a new one?"
"No, my parents wouldn't get one for me so I just had to listen to my CDs in the boombox at home."
"The boom... box...?"
::)

I can't say it makes me feel old though, because technology has evolved at a frighteningly fast rate through my lifetime. :hmm:
I was actually reading a psychology report about that. It was saying people who were born in the 90s-2000s are more likely to be depressed, because technology has escalated so quickly that the beginning of their childhood didn't have much technology at all while the end of their childhood was filled with it. I don't remember what the article said about why it makes them depressed though... I think something about the sudden change made time feel faster, thus their childhoods feel shorter.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on October 14, 2015, 04:11:39 PM
Forgot which image it is, but for me it's like I was born in the wrong future. We're just at the tail end of truly awesome space and tech stuff that I feel I won't get to see in its full blown form. Otherwise I can't say tech has made me feel that way. Overwhelmed sometimes but more often than not excited as all heck.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on October 14, 2015, 04:19:10 PM
Yeah, I think I've had a good balance. My family was never super open to technology when I was a kid, so we adopted it slowly and I wasn't overwhelmed that way. ::)
I'm actually glad I was born when I was, because I'm getting to see the technology I'm interested in already, but I also got to see what it was like living in a time when I didn't have much technology and it was pretty cool getting to see it all just sorta burst into existence all of a sudden. It was pretty amazing to me as a kid, so I'm glad I had that. I don't think I'd want to be born in the future, when all that already exists so I can't watch it pop up like that. :hmm:

It's not all that great. ::) I just got back from mine. I've had two, one in my ankle and today's in my back. The ankle one wasn't too bad, because only my ankle was in the machine. But this time, my whole body had to go in. Couldn't move for 45 minutes and got a shot midway through (dunno what that does actually. Makes something more visible in the pictures I think)... They gave me music at least, so it wasn't bad if I just closed my eyes and focused on the music. The biggest problem was laying flat on the hard surface was really hurting my back and it made it really hard to stay still. :(

I'll be well as soon as we can figure out what's wrong and get it fixed. :tongue:
I fell and hurt my back, but the doctor said the tailbone was just bruised and to just rest and it'll be fine in no time... But that was a year and a half ago and it's only gotten a lot worse. :(
Turns out something's going on that a normal X-Ray couldn't see, so I got both the MRI and blood tests. The follow-up appointment is in a few days so we'll see what the specialist has to say. :hmm:

Taking some time today to look into boats. I've never been a big fan of them when growing up. But while trying to understand about traveling methods, I'm starting to learn how boats evolved and traveled through history. Then I found this:

That was indeed amazingly boss like.

So how far have you gotten into research? Boats interest me too actually, but I've done next to nothing to learn more than what the starboard means.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on October 19, 2015, 05:01:25 PM
From what i can understand, starboard is a term for right side of the ship base on the front. For instance, when you stand on a ship and facing the front of the ship (the bow), you would call the right side starboard. If you were to turn around and facing the back of the ship (the stern) then your left would be starboard. The opposite side is called port.

So when on a ship facing the front and you see a whale on the right side of the ship, you would say, "I see a whale from starboard." Or if you see a whale on the left, you would say, "I see a whale from port." :hmm:

Please correct me if anyone knows better. :hmm:

A long time ago I got my Pleasure Craft Certificate. But I've forgotten quite a bit from then about boating. Especially like, handling a boat.... but those directions sound right.

I get confused when it comes to the buoys. Like, on planes, they have coloured lights on their wing tips, right? So you can tell which way they're facing when you look up at them at night. Same with boats...red light for port, green light for starboard. But the buoys are the other way. Like, you always keep the green buoy on your left, and the red buoy on your right. So, green on your port, red on your starboard.

(I also cannot tell my left from my right *cough* takes me a while to register these colours and directions  :confused:)

So I'm totally stoked for Star Wars episode 7, and have seen people buying two seats in advance to watch it in the theatres.

Problemo ein for me: It'll definitely be in German here so hell no.

Problemo zwei: I might have to become a hermit when it's christmas because I do not want to hear about how awesome it is before getting a chance to watch! I just don't want to *cough* torrent it too. But how long do I have to wait for a DVD? Curses!!!!!

I do wonder sometimes. What did you see?
Well, two guys from the same band said some "offensive" things. One guy just used the word "f*ggot" a bunch, where the other guy called a band of transgenders "a bunch of boys running around in panties playing terrible music." I understand how these are offense and harmful, but 1) the amount of outrage over using the word "f*ggot" was completely disproportionate to, say, Louis CK's whole bit on the word. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcja4WFFzDw (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcja4WFFzDw)

2). The other guy's social media thing is that he's offensive. There's plenty of other stuff on his page to dislike, yet people were for some reason surprised when what he said pertained to transgenders.

3). While I understand that, naturally, when an artist disappoints you, it can affect your listening of the music. But why have that much reverence for them in the first place? Secondly, I get the feeling that many people's moral standards are enforced simply by selective empathy. You get offended by somebody? "Of course, don't try to understand where they're coming from. If you disagree with someone's actions, you should totally just block yourself off from any personal connection you might feel via the music."

4). There was one guy who made an argument along these lines: "This is a terrible band anyways and not even black metal so of course they're homophobes. Hey, check out Burzum, whose leader, Varg Vikernes, hasn't ever done or said anything offensive or reprehensible in any way." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varg_Vikernes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varg_Vikernes)

Just an exercise in outrage culture, really.

I did friend said aunt btw. All 20-something of my cousins as well as my other aunts and uncles did find me and I had to friend them. I've "unfollowed" most of them so I don't usually see their posts but the occasional discriminatory article still finds its way onto my timeline every now and then. :(

Ohh so does mine. I get a card from her every month, containing some updates about her life and usually a comic strip she cut from the newspaper. :tongue: She can barely even figure out how to use, as she calls it, "The Google."

Me: "I know, Grandma. I don't plan on stay like that for my entire life."

P-Father: "That's fine. I'll just give her some whisky dipped from my finger."
Me: "No, I rather you don't. She got a dentist appointment tomorrow."
P-F: "Why?"
Me: "Because my family has a history of addictions with various substances. And I rather not lead Meadow into that family trail.(a bit overly cautious me ::))"
P-F: "I don't think that going to affect her that way"
Me: "Probably, but I just don't want her to. Okay?"

I still have fights with him time-to-time. This is the same guy who tells me, "I would never hit a child out of angry, but rather out of discipline." :thumbsdown:

It's definitely illegal here. And thankfully it has not became of that.

The Mother is so-so. We don't see eye-to-eye, but we do look at the same picture. I remember when my kid was a few days old, she asked me when Meadow was going to be bathtized. I told her that Meadow can make that choice once she is old enough to consider that. She wanted Meadow to be bathtized as an infant, but agreed that if Meadow wanted to when she's older, then it fine. :hmm:

Yeah, same here. We have rain almost every day in summer, and sometimes through October-Early November if there's a hurricane or tropical storm. Then in winter/spring, it doesn't rain at all.

Pumpkin soup! Yummy. Carving pumpkins really isn't that hard though, if you have the right knife. You guys should definitely try it sometime. ;D

Ah, I know the pain! In my town you had two choices:
-A barbershop. That is a "Male" hairdressers, who know how to use clippers and do a short back and sides and thats about it.
 
orrrrrr

-A Salon, predominantly used by females. While the cut is superior, your hair is often styled and cut in whats considered a female look :P

I had that when i had the zac efron circa highschool musical hairdo!

Ahaha, I don't use salons much anymore... Not since like, 10 years ago... When there was the incident.

(The hairstylist cut my hair into a boy's style and since I was young and had no distinguishing features literally everyone thought I was a boy until my hair grew out.)

Haha, it was quite the phase. First, I did everything in my power to show I was a girl. Dresses and bows and purses every day. Then I got made fun of for being "the boy in the girl clothes." :glare:
Then I just accepted my fate and went tomboy for a year or so... I still mostly wore pink and purple, but I wore it as hoodies, baseball caps, and sneakers galore. But I really wasn't liking it. I went back into the girly style almost immediately after my hair grew out. My heart has always been with The Kawaii. ::)

In my family at least, Thanksgiving isn't as big as Christmas but it's sorta like the start of Christmas season. We put up our outdoor lights, start putting up the trees, and watch a Christmas movie (usually Elf ::) ) after we watch Thanksgiving specials. ;D

Yeah, American Thanksgiving might be bigger than Christmas, if for no other reason than because it's a nondenominational holiday. It's certainly the busiest travel day of the year for air travel.

And Vacant, Wassailing is an English tradition! I thought you people would get that one. It's basically just going caroling while holding a cup, getting refills of wassail at each house. Wassail itself is a warm, cinnamon apple cider kind of beverage, and that stuff is DELICIOUS. Like liquid apple pie.

I LOVE CHRISTMAS SEASON YOU GUYS.

eh, that's probably more of a Columbus day thing. Thanksgiving was more like the last time we actually got along (even then, it was more like a bunch of Native Americans rolling up and being like "We're here for the party" and the pilgrims being like "We aren't throwing a party" and then the Native Americans going "You are now."

If you can, you should definitely go to one of those Christmas markets/villages.

Like Bernkastel:

(http://www.romantic-germany.info/uploads/media/Bernkastel_Weihnachtsmarkt_2_quer.jpg)

Yeah about 26. It's not bad, considering the past few months have been in the 90s (32 I think) but I'm just still not used to the weather here... I grew up in the north, where it got chilly in the Fall... and the leaves changed color...

This is what Fall looks like here:

(http://www.yourorlando.com/sites/yourorlando/files/styles/galleryformatter_slide/public/wekiva-cove-longwood-fl-4-fall.jpg?itok=xbfELaxO)

The leaves changing colour is beautiful. Fall suns beat summer suns any time any place!

Man, that looks so much like Germany, and yeah I love the little towns. Man, I didn't know they could get so bright.

*cough* well at least you have palm trees
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on October 27, 2015, 03:52:44 PM
I dislike summer in general. October through December is the best time of the year. ::) Though I like Easter time too...

Those towns are always so fun... I wish I could go to real Germany though. My grandparents offered to take me there for Christmas a few years ago, but that didn't work out. :sadbye:

That's true... But when you live here long enough you get sick of them. ::) They're everywhere. I have like 4 in my own yard alone. At least some grow bananas...
We actually have an oak tree in our yard that changes colors in Fall, but it's really young so it's half my size and grows like 10 leaves. So those 10 leaves turn orange for 2 days and then fall...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on October 27, 2015, 04:06:52 PM
Nuuu that's unfortunate. You'd love it for sure I suppose.

I thought everyone was a summer person. Well, if there was a summer I'd like to try out it'd be those japanese ones. Hearing cicadas while fanning myself in the heat ala all anime under the sund would complete my life hahahaha. Otherwise the sun generally sucks.

I get that. I couldn't believe that people didn't love apples as much as I did. But I guess it's a case of overly common things.

Wait palm trees growing bananas? Sorcery! I thought they only give coconuts...

T...T the oak tree story brings tears to my eyes. It's the same as turning up the air conditioning to make it feel like winter...

Well, I have no real reason to like summer hehe. I hate the heat and humidity, it's always crowded everywhere cause summer vacation, and since I'm homeschooled I get to choose my breaks so I don't take summer vacation, I take fall vacation. The only perk I see is getting to swim and eat more ice cream than usual. ::)
Ahh I would really like to go to one of those Japanese summer festivals...

I do love me some apples. :hmm:
Yup! They're actually specific banana trees, not the typical palm trees like in that picture, but they look very similar so I call them palm trees. ::)

Banana tree:

October to December is the best time of the year, I agree! Somewhat because it's that Yuletide build-up. The best part of the year is when Christmas tunes come out and Charlie Brown comes on. January to March is the only time of the year I don't like. Just snow and nothing to look forward to. April-May is at least summer build up. I get into that mood very early. I started listening to summer themed tunes the first of May this year. Because of school September has always seemed lame to. July-August is great.

Also if you guys want to get into that Halloween spirit here's a jam I've been listening to since September. It's a good Halloween tune, not the greatest release from AKB but it's alright.

Time to cast off the spooky veneer, y'all because IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS.

My workplace has been looking like a Winter Wonderland since around mid-October and we've been planning holiday festivities before even that. I'm already in the mood.

Waiting until November 1st for the theme-swap was a courtesy towards Ebenezer Coryn, and I'll still holding back until December begins.

I'M ONLY USING 10 PERCENT OF MY POWER LEVEL HOLIDAY CHEER.

*slams fists on desk*

I LOVE KAGEROU PROJECT!

*cough* I mean... Yes, I have heard the songs, read the manga, and watched the anime...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Robin Rain on November 02, 2015, 08:36:49 PM
Lol, I discovered the project a few days ago and since then I've listened to most the songs and watched the entire anime. Haven't read the manga or the light novels yet, but I'm planning to. So I guess you could call me a fan now.  :D

I keep seeing a lot of confused people debating on the plot, but I'm more confused why they're confused than I am about the plot.  :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on November 02, 2015, 08:47:57 PM
I think most of the confused people have only heard the songs or watched the anime... The manga and the songs together are the best way to learn the plot. There's definitely a more coherent story in the manga, so I suggest checking it out! I still need to read the light novels, too. :hmm:

Have you been listening in Japanese or English? If you'd like English versions, JubyPhonic covered the whole series in English and did it quite well! I like her translations quite a bit.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Robin Rain on November 02, 2015, 08:51:14 PM
JubyPhonic's covers are how I found out about the series.  ;) Though I've been listening to both versions.

Post by: Robin Rain on November 02, 2015, 09:01:59 PM
Hrm... It's hard for me to pick, but Summer Time Record is the one that I find myself singing along to the most often. Btw, have you heard this version? -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1DKz2cTDWg (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1DKz2cTDWg) It's sung by Jin himself.

He's a pretty great singer himself which I guess is why he did such a great job with IA.

Post by: MissChurro on November 02, 2015, 09:09:53 PM
Yeah, IA seems like one of the harder ones to deal with, judging by other songs I've listened to. He handled her pretty well! I've always wanted to try using a Vocaloid but they're pretty expensive programs...

Post by: MissChurro on November 02, 2015, 09:23:54 PM

Post by: liuxess on November 03, 2015, 08:12:20 AM
So I knew that today I will have to write a short essay (250 words)
So yesterday I started preparing. I didn't know what will be the main problem or discussion in my work, but I decided to prepare some quotes to make my arguments more valid.
I took quotes from books, anime, movies about anything I could come up with and wrote down like a 120 in my phone.
I was confident I'll write a good essay, so the next day, that means today, I entered the classroom confidently, ready to get a 10 (A+) grade. I sat down in my seat, readied my pen and my exercise book. And in that moment I decided to reread all my quotes, just maybe to make my mind ready to writing.

And then, I understood that I left my phone home. And hadn't almost nothing to quote, which makes most of my arguments weak.
So now I'll be taking some soap, a chair and a rope. Have a great life everybody

250 words isn't an essay, it's a short paragraph. You were to write a small paragraph.

nah, we're not talking English here, it's lithuanian. It doesn't have so many short words, so its harder to write. We are given 1.5 h for 250 words and 2.5 h for 500 words.

I downloaded a free vocaloid VST last year and tried to use it. My main problem was that only having the Japanese syllables was limiting and I had to create the diphthongs myself by cutting notes in half and assigning the blah blah blah...

In the end, it just wasn't worth the effort. It was super buggy and inconsistent too.

So, when we buy things like dried beans and such, we put them in airtight mason jars, to keep them fresh and to keep bugs out. So I was cleaning out the cupboard and pulled out a jar of chick peas from the back, and I learned something... That is the opposite of effective when the bugs are already living inside some of the chick peas.

Saw a Halo 5 angry joe review, and coupled with my personal thoughts, and then I watch the trailer...

Is it okay to hate something and love it at the same time? I hate microtransactions, I hate that the story was dropped a little, but damn Master Chief always has a place in my heart. I'll never buy xbone (unless i just have that much cash) but I really appreciate what they achieved here.

I still wish it ended though. I just know that if Halo ever ends, they'll kill off chief. I know it and fear it T-T

Also, things start to get wonky when they're already planning for Halo 7. The Franchising level is too damn high

I got into Linkin Park after seeing Transformers. I really liked a lot of those songs What I've Done, Numb, etc. I wasn't one of those kids who listened to them to express angst and emo stuff or whatever, it was more they did a cool song at the end of a movie I liked so I'll check them out.

That was before I got really into music so I used to just listen to stuff from other things I liked. I can still listen and enjoy some of there songs like Breaking The Habit and Hands Held High. What I've Done will always be one of my favourite songs for the sentimental attachment. Some stuff though like Papercut and Crawling I can not bare to sit through. I like Numb but I cringe over the lyrics. I always hated that one part of a song that went SHUT UPPPPP SHUT UP WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU!!!!! Was that Crawling or Faint? I don't remember. That part was always irritating to me.

I finally watched the first half of Over The Garden Wall last night, and I'm enjoying it so far, but... I cannot believe it's a "kid's cartoon." :ohmy:
I was just mildly creeped out by it now, but if I had seen it as s kid... I wouldn't have slept for days. ::)

Buying Alcohol is 18 as is gambling and smoking too.

As for the scissors. The sales of knives/bladed items is restricted. I'm pretty sure it's 16 but it may be 18 now. UK law is quite strict on knives as we don't really have guns here, that's the weapon of choice for many.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on November 18, 2015, 05:26:26 PM
Oh yeah! I just remembered! I think it has something to do with the length too (insert your own penis joke here). If a blade is above a certain length I think they get classified differently so some are kore restricter than others.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on November 18, 2015, 05:32:07 PM
Ahh that's right! I remembered incorrectly. You can drink with adult supervision at 16, but can't buy it. :hmm: 18 still seems young to me, though... The legal drinking age is 21 here, and people are still really irresponsible with it. :(

The knife/blade law is interesting! I don't think there's anything like that here... As far as I know, you can buy blades at any age and it's legal to open carry most. Especially things like Swiss Army Knives. :hmm:

No knives in Aus :( unless you hunt/fish or camp. Like have the related items on your person/car or you get done with concealed weapon. Though I've always driven around with a large hunting knife in my glove box and have never been pulled over once in 4 years :D (touch wood). My mate was pulled over I was shotgun and we had an unregistered gun in the back, cops thought it was a toy..... ;)

Man, the PS2 games that are available on PS4 right now are pretty strange. There was a brief time when all the headlines said "PS4 can emulate PS2 games now" and I was convinced that I could just pop out my old library of PS2 discs. I guess I'll have to settle for re-buying whatever games come out on PSN.

And I actually already have my Christmas shopping done already. Didn't expect to be so on-the-ball this year.

I once combined hot chocolate and some of that vodka that's flavored like a glazed donut together. Tasted like a chocolate donut that somebody spilled booze on. Not too shabby considering. I also recommend trying the Jack Daniel's Winter Jack. It's a kind cider-y liqueur type of thing. Very cheery for the holidays.

Or try googling a good wassail recipe. Boiling that stuff makes your whole house smell like unfiltered Holiday Cheer.

Nothing will and can ever be like Star Wars. It is absolutely untoppable. Nothing can ever touch the magic of the films. The same magic I beheld when I was 4 was the same magic I saw in the theatre yesterday. Star Wars is an experience like no other. Just seeing the opening titles yesterday was enough to bring me to almost tears, that's the sheer powerful of the series.  I can't even tell you the amount of joy, satisfaction and excitement the movie brought me. Just seeing a new Star Wars in the theatre again was very emotional for me.

It's a magic that can't be explained, it's hard to understand if you don't get it. Star Wars is the greatest franchise of all time.

To each their own, I suppose. It's good it makes you happy. ::)

It's also not so much the story itself, I didn't like it but I didn't hate it, but the Star Wars franchise has just impacted my life negatively in ways, so I don't exactly associate it with "magic." :tongue:

So for a while now i've really struggled to draw digitally (since i got my new monitor), I just felt like i couldn't get everything to behave as it used to, and as a result i've only been trying really simple shapes with absolutely no detail. Today i discovered what was wrong: I wasn't forcing proportions of my monitor through the Intuos Pro drivers. Felt like crying with how much easier it was to just draw a circle! :|


So, if you have a 21:9 monitor (or any other awkward, non 16:9 resolution) make sure you have that option checked. I know it wont look like a drastic difference, but it makes drawing so frustrating as everything seems stretched and to try and maintain normal props you have to kinda draw things taller than you would on paper (since it gets stretched without forced proportions).


here's what i mean, using the same strokes for the circles (both single stroke and then doing it repeatedly): (http://i.imgur.com/pewLjaA.png)

Star Wars stuff, The Beatles 1+ Blu-Ray set, my favorite J Pop albums Utada Hikaru's Distance and Deep River. Plus other things such as wrapping paper and boxes. Japanese CDs have the nicest booklets. They're so glossy and they have the highest quality pictures. I've never seen anything as nice in a CD booklet before.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on December 27, 2015, 09:47:48 AM
I have one Japanese CD (Boris– Flood) and the booklet is rather normal. It's older though (1996, I think?) and definitely not by a pop artist.

I'll mention what CDs I got when I get 'em. My brother ordered them for me, and they haven't come in yet. I did buy Sigur Ros' (), Madvillain's Madvilliany, and David Sylvian's Secrets of the Beehive for myself, though.

Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on December 29, 2015, 04:38:38 PM
It's something I've tried to do for a little while now. Most of the time I ended up putting too much planning in though. Diagrams, charts, and chronologies. It made for good results, but when I hit a snag and had to go back to planning, I had zero motivation to finish. This is a little more spontaneous. The characters are more fleshed out because I created many of them in character sketches, and I'm really letting the themes emerge themselves instead of premeditating to much. Plus, it's ended up better this way. Most of my diagrams and whatnot led to rather cliche themes and soap opera-ish characters. These characters aren't necessarily super realistic, but they're fresher, less contrived, and there are some elements emerging that I would never have thought of beforehand.

That's the way to do it, in my opinion. ::) I never leave the house on New Years, the crowds are crazy.

I got some books, too. But mostly manga and Japanese language books. ::)

Yup, it happens, almost every year. Last year there was actually a sheriff car parked at the entrance of my neighborhood (which is strange since it's a small neighborhood... A sheriff lives here so it may actually be him.) and we were able to watch the fireworks for a few minutes before we saw the red and blue flashing lights, then suddenly the neighborhood was silent. :tongue:

Yeah, you should see the traffic here. Traffic is bad enough here as it is in winter, with all the "snow birds" (people who come here to stay for the winter) but put New Years in the mix... Good luck out there! ::)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Coryn on December 30, 2015, 07:23:49 PM
@lego: Yeah some novels. got Star Wars: Aftermath, which is one of the books in the new canon which sorta bridges the gap between return of the jedi and the new movie.

I got All The Wrong Questions: "Who Could It Be At This Hour?" which is another book series by Lemony Snicket about the character of Lemony Snicket

there was Futuristic Violence And Fancy Suits, which is the new book by the same guy who wrote John Dies At The End and This Book Is Full Of Spiders

and lastly I got the Welcome to Night Vale novel. (also titled Welcome To Night Vale) which I just started today, and is written exactly like the podcast.

read Aftermath and All The Wrong Questions yesterday, and started on Night Vale this morning, but got distracted playing KOTOR II (I downloaded the massive mod that fixes a whole ton issues and restores a bunch of the content that made it on the disc, but not into the finished game cause of budget and schedule reasons). Frankly it's just nice to play the thing without it being the buggy mess it was originally.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Haha Lemony Snicket is still happening? I got The Beatrice Letters or whatever and am planning on finishing off the collection. Man can't wait for the Netflix series.

Still gotta read that. Looks like insane fun. I also want to get my hands on a second hand copy of John Dies At The End. Only read the sequel and watched the first movie.

Night Vale novel? Noice.

Which Murakami novel?

1Q84 is the Murakami one I'm reading currently. Well, it's definitely well-written so far, but there are some weird, kinda graphic sex scenes that I'd recommend skipping. I think he might be playing on Brave New World with those scenes, so maybe his other books aren't like that. Kafka on the Shore kind of seems to have the same structure, but with an entirely different bent. I've been interested in him and some of the other post-modern novelists for a while and finally bought a couple of novels during the school year. I started reading 1Q84 a while ago, but it's long and I stopped reading altogether in the middle of the semester. I have Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace as well. My system is to read two books at a time, so when I want to read, but don't want to read one of the books I'm reading, I have another option. Currently, I'm finishing up Memoirs of A Geisha and reading 1Q84. When I finish Memoirs, I'll move onto Never Let Me Go; 1Q84, Infinite Jest. I've been able to keep myself reading that way, except for that time in the middle of the semester because college sucks.

I've not even heard of badchristian. Looks interesting though.

Not long got back from work. Dressed in more comfortable wear and sitting down with some juice....so yeah you could say i've rang the new year in style! :P


I had a frozen pizza for dinner.

I really hope you at least defrosted it first!

I think you'll find that frozen pizzas all contain very similar directions. If you were to go to the store right now in fact and look at the back of one, you will see that the pizza instructs you to keep the pizza frozen until you put it into the oven. After all if you were to put a non-frozen pizza into a hot oven, it would be soggy and flaccid, which would cause large amounts of deformation in the pizza, and more than likely lead to it being over done.

I think you will find that the evidence is irrefutable. Your pun is incorrect. And in my humble estimation, means that you should be sentenced to pun prison.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 01, 2016, 08:58:22 PM
Actually, I read about why they do that! They erase/leave out the top half of the glasses simply so the character's eyes are more visible. It's like how you'll often see eyebrows on top of hair so you can see their emotion better, or like I've noticed in Haikyuu, they'll erase part of the volleyball net if a character is behind it so their face is completely visible.

Ah so it's one of those. I thought it might just be an actual thing. Ya I'm not too fond when animes that pull that stuff. The glasses thing is alright because it's kinda cool, but I don't much like of eyebrows through hair or erasing parts of objects to shows faces. It's just weird and illusion breaking for lack of better term. Sometimes animes erase parts of glasses, like the sides, to show the eyes. It just looks silly really.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 01, 2016, 09:07:58 PM
Yeah, I've never liked the eyebrow thing especially. If I really want one of my character's eyebrows to show that badly, I'll just change the shape/length of their bangs. ::)

I'm still deciding. There's some I might be interested in, like Tabi Machi Late Show, and Rilu Rily Fairilu, Boku dake ga Inai Machi, and Hai to Gensou no Grimgar... but normally I wait for the first few episodes to come out so I can read reviews and decide if I actually want to watch them. If not I'll just catch up on the ones I've started but never finished. ::)

I'm looking forward to the Spring and Summer seasons more, I think. The Sinbad no Bouken anime, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney anime, and Attack on Titan season 2 come out then.

Haha indeed.

Anyways, after people constantly talking about how much they hated the newer Star Wars trilogy I started reading up their arguments and checking the wikipedia page. And now I don't enjoy the trilogy anymore. In fact I'm watching an 'anti cheese' version of the movie.

So I'm asking : Was it worth making myself not enjoy something I used to enjoy from the start?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on January 03, 2016, 07:57:09 PM
That's pretty bad if you let other people influence your opinion. I mean nothing is wrong with changing your mind on something but it sounds like you didn't truly enjoy them if other people's views could change yours so fast.

I like Attack Of The Clones and Revenge Of The Sith. They are important childhood movies to me. I'm not going to let random people on the Internet change my view on that. I rewatched those 2 films last week and yes they got issues, do they ever, I picked up on a lot of stuff I never notice before that was bad. But it's still a damn good time.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 03, 2016, 08:05:18 PM
Hmm, I don't think it's exactly wrong or bad, Lego. It depends on the context, but sometimes it's just a matter of making realizations and disliking aspects because of those realizations, or even just growing out of it and looking into it again made you see that you've grown out of it.

For the lack of a better example, it's like me with Dumbledore from Harry Potter. I definitely used to like Dumbledore, but then I saw some stuff about him being discussed online, and while those people didn't influence me to dislike him (they weren't even speaking about him in a negative way, just simply stating facts) they did open my eyes to things I hadn't thought about before which made me dislike him.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on January 03, 2016, 08:08:25 PM
Ah yes, those revelations (if I'm guessing correctly) felt shoehorned and unnecessary to me. Really didn't enjoy that part of things.

The internet is a great thing sometimes! On the other side it stops me from enjoying what I've liked for ages haha. I didn't even think it was possible for people to hate Chronicles of Narnia. It was just so infallible and part of my childhood I thought it was a crime to do so

Also One Punch Man has no business being that high on IMBD. I mean let's get real for a minute, it's just a parody show. I haven't seen Breaking Bad but are you really going to tell me a superhero parody is on par with it? But it's just a rating on the website no need to take it seriously.

You silly kids need to watch that real sh*t, like Maken-Ki Two. Now there's a 9.5 if I've ever seen one.

I'd say Maken Ki Two has the best plot line seen in a decade!

@Manimal: It depends on if we're talking story-wise or animation-wise. I haven't seen the whole series yet so I can't say for the story, but parody or not it has some of the best animation quality I've ever seen. In the sense of animation I feel it definitely deserves to be that high up on the list. But if we're talking overall... Yeah, I think an anime like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood deserves that spot more. In fact, I'm surprised that one is all the way down at #14 instead of higher... :notunderstand:

@Swearzy: Go for it! It's quite fun once you try it. ;D
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on January 04, 2016, 03:30:23 PM
The animation is quite nice no denying that. Madhouse tends to make some great looking stuff. But it being a parody for me puts it in a box where I can't get invested because it's all a joke. There are other anime in the top 50 that are way more worthy. Cowboy Bebop, Death Note, Brotherhood...there's no way some Superhero spoof is better than some real anime art ya know. Not to say it isn't real art...I don't know what I'm saying really...
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 04, 2016, 03:34:28 PM
Haha. Since it's by votes, the list probably fluctuates as things gain and lose popularity. Since OPM is very recent, it probably got a lot of votes really quickly.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on January 04, 2016, 03:40:25 PM
That's true, also it has less votes than the other shows. Breaking Bad : 790,395 to One Punch Man : 15,500.

I don't want to use the term overrated as I know it's well received by a lot of people and I personally just didn't get it, but I think maybe it's rated so high because it's such a shock to see an anime of it's quality come out among the other shows. Attack On Titan was probably the last anime that got this big, unless I'm forgetting something from 2014. It is a creative and different anime so I understand it's popularity, it's often those kind of shows that get big. Expect for Sword Art, I still don't understand why that became popular.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: legomaestro on January 04, 2016, 03:54:56 PM
The super high rating for OPM is because there aren't many votes on it. Breaking Bad is impressive because it has so many views and has so high a rating, plus, it doesn't take away from it as a great show. Not everyone watches anime in the first place dude, and OPM deserves what it got. It's a great success story, and the animation quality was top match, that is all. It may have it's flaws but they should be in on the series itself, and it should be commended as any of the greater animes out there.

AoT got big for a good reason even though I dislike the anime. I appreciated that.

Haha! I do it as well. It doesn't help that apparently it is also a Korean thing, and since my family is hooked on K-Drama, everyone in the house is doing it now too. We're doomed.

...Why didn't I think of that earlier?! That would've been hilarious. :tongue:
I don't want to give too much away, so I'll just say... it's not quite like anything I've done before. The setting, plot, and characters are all quite foreign for me but, if I may toot my own horn, I think it'll be quite epic by the end.

Sometimes I worry about the future.

Related to the picture I could've gotten that big figure at a Con but I hadn't seen The Idol Master yet and didn't know Chihaya would turn out to be one of my ultimate favorite characters so I passed on it for some random figure I didn't even know. 1 week later I watched the show. I bought her Figma later to make up for it but that was still very stupid of me to pass up on. I didn't use my brain very much at my first Con.

Being completely honest manimal, today I too went to the store for that very reason. A tiny kylo ren now sits on my desk. Unfortunately, I have no use for the little combiner bits that came with him. Also sad: not a single phasma in sight. Did get my roommate a regular stormtrooper as a Christmas gift though
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Once you start to make money you'll find it goes away pretty fast. They're nice to have but yes a bit costy. I've gotten mostly all mine from Cons, I only have like 8, my favorite is my K-On Azusa I got for only $40!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 05, 2016, 08:39:42 PM
*whistles* The only time I've seen a figure for just $40, it was a small Nendoroid. :o

If I were ever to invest in one, I'd probably get someone from Naruto, Fullmetal Alchemist, or Haikyuu because I feel like I'll never fall out of love with those series. ::)

I've actually been eyeing some Haikyuu Nendoroid pre-orders on Tokyo Otaku Mode, and I think shipping is free on the nendoroids for first time customers, but... It'll be hard to get myself to buy it. I very much have a "If it's expensive, I should save the money for something more useful" mindset. :tongue:

I think I might consider getting a nendoroid as a reward for myself, for completing one of the many life goals I intend to complete within the next year or two, because then I'll feel a bit better about splurging on it... but I'm also worried they'll sell out before then. :(

I actually started Bakuman recently, my excuse being "to motivate myself during this contest."

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on January 07, 2016, 10:42:49 PM
I'd recommend the J Drama Blue Blazes. It's a good show about a fictional manga artist at an art college with the guys who went to form Gainax. That part is true (most of it), so it's about a fictional character in an almost biographical setting. Evangelion director Hideaki Anno is portrayed here and he's the most amusing part of the show as it's apparently what he actually did at that school. The main guy is very realistic of an artist. He looks for the cheap way all the time, rarely draws, always tries to find a way he is better than someone when he knows he isn't, and is generally not a hard worker at all. It's perfect and I found it super relateable because it's like watching a real artist. It made me want to not be like him and get moving with my comics. It's a good show if you wanna check out a J Drama.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 07, 2016, 10:44:25 PM
Oh, thanks for the suggestion! :o I didn't know a J-Drama like that existed. I've never watched J-Drama, only K-Drama, so that might be a good change of pace. :thumbsup:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on January 07, 2016, 10:48:03 PM
Ya J Drama is a nice break from anime. I've completed two (No Dropping Out and Blue Blazes). Both decent shows. Blue Blazes is really good for an artist though. Seeing someone struggling to come up with an idea. Losing motivation super quickly because they're around better artists, it's so realistic. The humour in the show is kinda silly and it's over the top but it's a good watch. Short as well only 11 or 12 episodes. As soon as I finished the show I went and rearranged my desk and got more inspiration for my comics. Just seeing a character drawing is enough for me to get going sometimes because it's like "hey I do that, why aren't I doing it right now?". 
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 07, 2016, 10:50:11 PM
That definitely sounds like the kind of motivation I need right now... I recently printed out a calendar schedule for this manga I'm drawing, and looking at how much I'll have to do in such a short period of time... it shut off my motivation haha. I must get it back!
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on January 07, 2016, 10:57:09 PM
Ya it's hard to power through a comic. If you really grind I bet you can slam it out though. The feeling of finishing a comic is great! Putting the staples in the back and signing my name is the best part of making comics for me. When you look back on what you got done it feels awesome! That's why I love to make comics.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 07, 2016, 11:03:27 PM
That's true, I've never finished a full manga before, either... so I bet it'll feel great. I may even print it out and hand bind it as a book so I can feel my finished work in my own two hands. It'll feel amazing!

I'm stupid curious about this while at work right now.

haha
interesting
the only thing i would say is... that even though it's cute, i don't think that many people would wear it. primarily because, even though this girl seems fashionable from her tops, the tops and the bottoms don't match much. If someone was going to wear a nice top like that, then such a short plain skirt wouldn't really work, because it's not really casual and it's not really professional, either. Maybe if the skirt was a jean skirt, i could see the last one working on a casual outing? But the other tops look too formal to usually be combined with a blue miniskirt. If someone did wear it, they might be teased about the fashion clash.

So I would have to say that I do't think it's a normal outfit. However! I also think that styles are whatever people make them to be, and maybe even though it's not usual, maybe it's a character fashion thing. Dressing that way sticks out, but that's not always a bad thing. I have lots of friends who dress differently then one would expect, but that's just who they are. Even though it's not standard and sometimes not accepted, that doesn't mean it's always that way.

I guess, tl;dr is just that it's not the usual, but that's just a guideline, not a rule.

....omfg those layers though
i like layers too
but
dang.
lol.

They do like amazing, but pricey right now ($599 for Oculus rift, and that doesn't include the touch controllers/motion controllers.)


That's a main reason why im waiting for Vive, because if it's not that much more expensive then i'll probably go for it since it includes controllers.

God damnit Vio, I guess the cities really close to Toronto are getting it.

I would be sorry for your loss, but you dissed nekomimi so... >...>

Is it possible to head out to any of those places man?

Ha ha. No unfortunately not. We got the last 2 Dragon Ball Z movies here, I don't know why we didn't get this...I figured all Cineplex theatres would. All I can hope for is they add extra dates, it's a really excellent movie and I would've loved to see it on the big screen, especially for the Sunny Day Song scene.

Some theatres are showing the film at February. So you got plenty of time. ^^

What I like to do is put my laptop on a TV table than put a pillow on my lap and get my tablet leaning on the pillow and the end of my laptop. It's a very comfortable set up! TV is good background noise for drawing. When I was a kid I had one of those one piece school desks at home so I would position it in front of the downstairs TV and draw comics all day while watching Nickelodeon. I would love to have some of younger me's drawing drive.

Post by: MissChurro on January 11, 2016, 11:18:44 AM
Oh man, he died? I didn't know much about him but I'm not sure I'd call him a "legend"... I hate to be that person but all I really knew about David Bowie is that he was racist/white supremist/pro-nazi and supposedly a pedophile. I dunno if that's all true, though. :hmm: If anybody can source me to a place that proves otherwise I'd appreciate it, I'd hate to be spreading false information. :tongue:
All I've seen from him is The Labyrinth and the China Girl music video (which was racist) though. :-\
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vacant on January 11, 2016, 11:39:26 AM
I must admit...I've never heard claims of paedophilia in regards to Bowie. I always heard that China Girl was a song about "China White" a name for heroin I believe and the affects of the addiction it causes. It's been a long time since I've listened to it, so I could be wrong but I can't remember anything overtly racist in the lyrics?

The Facism/Pro-Nazi comments I heard about though. He claimed that it was down to heavy drug abuse and meant tongue in cheek. No idea what the truth to all that is (nor does it really excuse what he said) but thats the reasons he gave.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MisterSherbetLemon on January 11, 2016, 12:04:00 PM
Can't say I've heard the paedophilia claims either bud, he did tend to glitter throughout his whole career so maybe you're thinking of Gary Glitter? :P

My strange thought process at work ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy!

On a serious note, David Bowie was accused of raping a woman in 1987 and exposing her to aids. He agreed to take the test and was cleared of all charges shortly after.

Never found a source about paedophilia charges though. Do you have a source to back that up?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Manimal on January 11, 2016, 12:21:34 PM
I was thinking Churro confused him with Gary Glitter as well. That's the first thing I thought. I haven't listened to any David Bowie albums but I understand he's done more than one iconic and influential one.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 11, 2016, 01:04:48 PM
I was thinking about this video I had seen: https://youtu.be/SnViqstGsYs?t=11m21s
I know it doesn't sound that bad/non-consensual when she talks about it but she was only 13 or 14 at the time, below the legal age of consent. Thus it was pedophilia and rape, assuming it's true.
She never pressed charges or anything, so what Bowie had to say about it is unknown, I believe.

Also, the sources for the other things I mentioned if people wanted to know:

http://www.musictimes.com/articles/5894/20140503/6-famous-musicians-accused-of-racism-bob-dylan-david-bowie-and-more.htm

http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/tag/david-bowie

It's been a long time since I've listened to it, so I could be wrong but I can't remember anything overtly racist in the lyrics?

It could be, that does make sense. But when I saw the video mixed with the lyrics, it seemed an awful lot like a fetishization of Asian women, which is a form of racism and still a big problem today. :hmm:
Also he did that really awful "squinty Asian eye" thing in the video: https://media.giphy.com/media/13EilwlFAhnadq/giphy.gif which is what really pushed the racist idea to me.

Again, though, I don't know if any of this is actually true. I didn't know much about him and I'm reluctant to trust the media in any way, whether they say he's guilty or not. I'm just stating what I had heard and wondering if anybody could help prove it wrong, because I don't want to think he's a bad person. :-\
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MisterSherbetLemon on January 11, 2016, 01:42:57 PM
Ah right, I can't/won't give a defense for him in that situation but it doesn't seem like it was a regular thing of his. Guy did a lot of drugs, had a lot of groupies, made a very poor judgement on that one but I don't think he was an intentional child rapist and that likely scared him into being more careful about who he hooked up with.

The words "child rapist" or "paedophile" give a very extreme impression and I don't think Bowie could really be put in the same boat as people like Gary Glitter or the guy from that band Lost Prophets who actively sought that kind of thing out. You can never tell I suppose but I'd like to believe Bowie made a genuinely horrible mistake and regretted it when he found out. 
 
I think he was more the kinda person to pick fun at things racially rather than do it out of hate. Doesn't make it right but I can say honestly that I've done the same thing. As for a fetishization of Asian women, it's not the worst kind of racism I've heard in music. Once again I think it's meant comically because it's about heroin. Back then it wouldn't be considered racist to make a comparison like that but I certainly see your point.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: 50 Words for Paipis on January 11, 2016, 01:53:11 PM
He's considered a "legend" specifically for his music (maybe for his image as well), and not his character. Most musical "legends" have quite a few glaring flaws in character.

Anyway, it wouldn't surprise me if he was into the nazi stuff for a second, even though he strikes me as more of a Weimar Republic kind of guy. He reminds me of some of the early 20th century composers whose ideologies changed wildly over decades, from fascist to communist to anywhere in between. Artists sometimes have trouble with identity and will sometimes seek it in some kind of ideological extremity if only for a short time.

I'd say most people born in the 40's- late 80's are more than likely racist if there are any minorities in their home country. Of course there are plenty that aren't but it's a plague if anything. Nothing more than a tool used by connniving politicians.

Yeah. On top of this, I have a few points to make here: First, being attracted to an underage yet developed girl is biologically and psychologically different from being attracted to a prepubescent girl. Particularly considering that 18 as the age of consent is particularly high in comparison to most cultures and is only so high for health reasons, not moral ones. Secondly, it's more likely that Bowie never found out how old the girl was. It's not like that kind of thing would ever come out except in court or vh1, and "groupies" tended to lie about their age. Thirdly, those kinds of claims are oft made by people seeking a moment of fame. Lastly, the mention of rape seems highly irrelevant considering it's only legally rape because the girl's consent is not acknowledged by law not because she did not consent.

Is it wrong? I'd certainly say so for multiple reasons I won't get into. But when I saw pedophilia, I definitely was not thinking the very technical definition Churro was using which ultimately points to an unfortunate cultural norm rather than a psychological deviance.

You all have good points. Everybody has flaws, it's the fact that they accept that and try to change that counts.

I looked over what I said and realized it probably sounded disrespectful to bring all this up in wake of his death, so I'm sorry if that's how that came off. I had just been seeing it all over the internet today (I didn't know it was because he died until I saw Lego's post here, I just thought he did something to cause all these things to resurface) and I was wondering if it was all true.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MisterSherbetLemon on January 11, 2016, 03:50:41 PM
Not at all Churro, I didn't realize any of that had even happened before and while I love his music I would've felt pretty strange if I found out I'd been mourning an amoral sex offender. I'm glad I found out the facts and that they're not so black and white as they could have been.

It's basically a Research project. So I'll be doing a study on the brain, specifically, I'll be investigating Broca's area of the brain in context to language processing by causing temporary inhibition of the area (using tDCS) to see what specific language properties it (and other areas/interaction) are responsible for (such as phonology, syntax, etc.). I'm still really early in research though, so it all will probably change from what i've just said (I only found out yesterday i'd be doing this, and this semester is the first time we'll actually have a class on Neuropsychology.


Basically i'm hype to get my science on.

I've never been to Alberta, so I can't say how it is over there. :hmm:

If you don't want to live in a city, then you're in luck. Despite the county's size, it not that heavily populated. More people live in California than in Canada with Ontario having the most people around ~13 mil. and Quebec with ~8 mil. Also, 90% of the population are within ~100km/~62miles of the U.S. boarder.

Sounds like a dream land haha! I get uncomfortable in largely populated areas. I prefer peace and quiet. ::)
I'd like to live somewhere similar to the area I grew up in up north, which was close to the Canadian border so perhaps I should stay in that area. I won't be too picky... I'd just like a pretty nature-y place with all four seasons instead of Warm, Hot, Hotter and Hottest like in Florida. ::)

In Canada, there's no such thing as " four seasons". At least, we get six here in Southern Ontario. We get Summer, Summerfall, Fall, Winterfall, Winter, Winterspring, and Summer. Sometimes we get a rare glance of Spring here.

That's true. But I didn't see any snakes or scorpions there. Just tarantulas and a "Don't bother the squirrels, they can carry the plague!" sign. That's probably because it was the Grand Canyon, though. I don't imagine snakes and scorpions would like to hang out around there with all the people. ::)

If I were to homeschool my kid:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzLwKPSWcI4

Personally, I don't have much views on homeschooling. So long as the kids are being taught correct information by the parents and learning well, it's no bother to me.
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MisterSherbetLemon on January 15, 2016, 03:25:30 PM
I'm anti-homeschool but I won't rant.

Schools don't get everything right but one thing that's important for everyone at an early age is the interaction with other children. I'm not the most intelligent guy around but I've got social skills and that began at school.

Believe it or not, I was once a very shy fellow. :P
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 15, 2016, 03:41:11 PM
Well, the reason I'm asking is because my oldest sister (public-schooled) was trying to convince me I should regret being homeschooled and that I'm stupid and have disadvantages in society... Even though I'm smarter than her in many areas and have already fit into society much better than she ever has. :hmm:

@Sherbet: Well, a big thing that was brought up in our conversation was incorrect stereotypes, like what you just said about not having interaction with other children. I've been homeschooled from the start, I've never stepped foot in a public school, but I'm probably the most social person in my family and always have been since I was a little kid. I am more shy now than I was as a kid, but that's due to completely unrelated reasons.

Believe it or not, I was once a very shy fellow. :P
As a homeschooler, I can't really say I agree or disagree. I've met some who are awkward and shy. I've met some who are awkward not in the shy way, but the opposite way– they're a little too eager to talk your ear off or say things without a filter. I've met some who are quiet but not awkward and others who are talkative, but not awkward (most are rather normal, honestly). As a homeschooler, I have had lots of socialization opportunities including several co-ops, a track/cross country team, and dual-enrolling at a local university, yet there have also been times where I have been by myself a lot. I am socially awkward at times for reasons I won't get into, and I won't pretend that homeschooling or some aspect of it never played a part, but I don't think it's as big a factor as most people think.

As for academic advantages/disadvantages, I can't necessarily complain too much because I have an above average ACT score. In public schools, I've known people who I know are as smart as I am or smarter, who have not gotten as high a score or who have gotten higher, depending on their work ethic. But at private schools, I've known people who are moderately intelligent to not that intelligent, who, because the school works them harder and requires more from them, have gotten insanely good scores on their ACT. I can't help but think that if I were in that kind of environment, I would have done better academically and had a better work ethic when it comes to academics (because I've normally been pretty lazy about it). I know if I had worked hard in that area, I could have been seriously competitive. That said, while I innately want to be seen as intelligent, I know I have little passion for or interest in being an academic, so my homeschool education has done its job correctly.

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

How about putting your desk in another spot in the room? I like to rearrange the furniture in my room once every 6 months or so. :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 18, 2016, 01:40:32 PM
Sadly, my setup is a fairly permanent one for now. :hmm: If I got a real desk (I just have an art table right now, which I use as a desk) I could do a little rearranging, but that's expensive. :(

I think I should start by going through all my drawers and stuff and throwing out things I no longer need. The problem with that is it always creates a mess so I don't want to do it. :sure:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on January 18, 2016, 01:47:42 PM
How about putting the stuff in bags? Just look through the bags for the stuff you want to keep and leave the things you don't need in the bags. :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 18, 2016, 01:51:31 PM
I suppose I could try that. :hmm:

I actually found a cheap desk at Ikea I may look into. If I get it, I can replace my art table with the desk, and move my art table to the other side of the room. Then I'll actually have space to do things like watercolor and stuff on it, since it won't have my desk stuff on it anymore. ::)
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic

Speaking of 2010, the year in one song.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98WtmW-lfeE

The song that forever changed my ignorant views on pop music. I got lots of nostalgia for 2010/early 2011 pop songs. If you can even call it nostalgia, it wasn't THAT long ago.

I find this 2010 one oddly nostalgic as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0J7oLC8VlU

I also strangely miss Ke$ha. I didn't like her at the time but in retrospect she was just a silly artist who wanted everyone to have a good time.

Ahem just butting in wherever I can spread my options. Carry on.

Wow. Real talk for a minute.

It seems Glenn Frey, co-founder of the Eagles has just passed, he was 67.

That's quite surprising, I didn't even know he was sick. I just went on Facebook on saw the Eagles page posted this. Glenn had a great singing voice and is behind many of the Eagles greatest tunes. I quite like the Eagles and they are one of my new holy four as I call it, a new wave of big artists that changed my musical landscape in the last year or 2. The others being Bruce, the Beatles and Bob Dylan. Here are some of the best Eagles songs Glenn sang on.

Take It Easy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfeNhwnO8hw)
Tequila Sunrise (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5NnZcdtMnw)
Already Gone (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoGweOFqapU)

New Kid In Town (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8u7J60I_wro)

Of course we can't talk about Glenn without his biggest solo hit that some of you might know, The Heat Is On (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C070_4ya98Y).

Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on January 18, 2016, 10:22:45 PM
Alright.

According to the properties of light, such as speed, brightness, etc., we see the stars as they are in the sky when we look up (in this case, a photo). Because of the distance of the stars and how fast light travels, some of the stars you are see may no be present anymore. What you could be seeing is the light emitted from stars millions, even billions, of years ago that have died and no longer exist.

So the next time you are looking up the skies and see the stars, you may be looking a few ghost stars. ;)

Either one, but assimilated sounds more dramatic. ::) I didn't want to become a southerner, it just sorta happened. Now I'm going to have to get used to the cold all over again when I move. :(

Was watching The Flash today, and yet again there is drama about the secret identity.

Is it such a big deal for the love interest not to know what the other does as a job? I mean I'm pretty sure there are spies or top ranking government officials who can say to their wives 'Sorry, can't talk about that, but I'm doing something to protect the country'

I just don't understand why it's a constant plot point and how difficult the love interests tend to be.

@Vio: Did you get my PM, by the way?
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MisterSherbetLemon on January 21, 2016, 04:42:04 PM
It's partly to do with the fact that they never just claim they're working as a spy or something. They always have rather run-of-the-mill jobs that everyone knows about: Reporter, Detective, Forensics, Garbage Lorry Driver (that would be a great hero setup personally). Keeping obvious secrets in that scenario seems pretty suspicious.

I worked as a butcher for five years, if I didn't come home after work or went out at night without explaining anything, my "love interest" would probably kill me. :confused:

It's why I like Iron Man, he just flaunts himself. Makes it much easier for his social life.  ;D

'Sorry, can't talk about that, but I'm doing something to protect the country'


Pretty sure they can't even say that, but I do like "That's above your pay grade." Or The classic "That's classified." Even some response could be "That's [Redacted]" lol. Usually would be just a "I work for the government."

Plot time!

Wife is the spy, guy is stay at home dad who is still the director of the agency but wife doesn't know that and has never seen met or heard the director. Then [Redacted] was with [Redacted] doing a [Redacted] for the [Redacted] and saved the world. :D

More like this, I was driving past a Bore nest (A bore that pumped water to a reservoir above ground) I turned my work lights on to see if any machines where parked in there, It was kneeling down in front of the generator and when I turned my lights on it turned and looked at me then stood up and was coming towards me. I was playing music on the stereo which turned off by itself and the two way radio started to make a crackling noise and then I drove away. It was the only night I had to work by myself in the whole three weeks I was there.

You may be able to find it somewhere. It's not wildly well known or anything. I think it might be more popular in England as it was referenced in Monty Python and in Wallace & Gromit, but my mother managed to get some here in the US. I think at Walmart, actually, of all places.

We the delivery guy showed up at the door, he'd arrived 41 minutes after I placed my order. Now, this pizza place holds the traditional, "40 minutes guaranteed or your pizza is free" policy. I could've been a prick and argue for the sake a free pizza. But know this guy is driving in the cold and trying to deliver food, I decided to let him off and paid for the pizza.

This good deed should last for 15 years before I have to refill. :hmm: :thumbsup:

ahh man....gotta always check the dips on deliveries. Learned that the hard way. Hell, check the damn pizza too! I've had that before where they give you the wrong one! Screw it...check everything...dont trust anyone!  :ninja:

Ahem, anywho.....I've had an idea for a workshop/challenge thing and I wanna know what people think. I was watching American Horror Stories and the idea came to me. I like episodic content. I like episodic content where each episode feels different too.

So my idea was several writers get together, they agree on an overarching plot for a story, then each add characters, locations etc. Then each writer is responsible for submitting a chapter, start to finish. Now the fun twist could be that we go in an order and whoevers turn it is to write their chapter would have full creative control. So when its your turn to write.....you have to just follow on from what the last person has done.

I guess its basically the writers relay, but more in depth I suppose.

Well, we already had the Day of 1,000 Styles, but that one seems to have come to it's own conclusion. It'd be interesting to bring that type of thing back, but with a more structured narrative, rather than the "Whoever's writing has our self-inserts on a long and rambling RP adventure."

I'd be down to do some more collaborative writing, that's for sure!

I'd be game for either of those workshops. First one sounds like the "Wild Cards" book series if anyone's read that?

Aw, one of my favorite J Pop artists Mami Kawada has just announced retirement!

Mami did some really great songs. Her songs from Shakugan no Shana rank among the very best of anime tunes. Hishoku No Sora is my second favorite anime OP behind Mikuni Shimokawa's super nostalgic Tomorrow from Full Metal Panic. I watched Shana for Mami's songs and they where a big part in my overall enjoyment of the series. Looks like the OP of Aokana will be one of her last. Sucks she was on a good roll, especially with her great song Gardens from To Love Ru Darkness 2 last summer. At least we have Ray who is similar to Mami and also on a golden streak. I always get excited when I see Mami's name in the upcoming anime songs, she was the first artist I explored when I got into J Pop beyond anime. Her Roots and Savia albums are good but her best tunes are her anime ones.

Here's some of her best tunes for those who are curious.

It doesn't even look like a router. It's just sorta a big black slab. Like it could force evolve me like the obelisk from the beginning of 2001 a space odyssey

I'm just impressed you trusted your manga with a friend. ::) For me, it's like:

Me: Sure (:
Friend: It's getting late so I'll have to take them with me though--
Me: *wraps self around them protectively and hisses*

They're hecka expensive and chances are if I let a friend take them home I'll never see them again. :(

How about seek out help for a specific task? Since you said you're on digital, why not seek cooperation with someone to help with sketches, lining, background, or such areas? :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 27, 2016, 11:26:06 PM
As stubborn as it might sound, I'm not a collaborative person when it comes to my own work. :sure: I start what I finish by myself, usually. I wrote the story, I'm going to do the sketches because I know how I want it to look, I'm just going to use the free Manga Studio backgrounds to save time, so all that leaves is the inking... And I feel it's really not worth it to find help for one task like inking. :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on January 27, 2016, 11:31:13 PM
Ok, what about the textures?  :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 27, 2016, 11:33:08 PM
Since the style is just typical shounen inked black and white, all of that will be done in the inking process. :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: Vio on January 27, 2016, 11:37:18 PM
Ok, how about paneling? Just make a sketch and have the collaborator lined the panels. :hmm:
Title: Re: Chit chat Topic
Post by: MissChurro on January 27, 2016, 11:39:26 PM
I do the panels before the sketches, so I know what to draw where. :-\

Again, all that comes in with the inking. Collaborating with someone else would really just add more work. :(

I think I'll just take longer breaks and just get whatever I can done. If it's lower qaulity than what I could normally do, it's okay, because it's still quite an accomplishment in my book. I consider my health more important in this case... Forcing my hand to do more than it can really isn't worth the surgery, in the end. :hmm:

You could also look into a Powerline instead, if it's by a free outlet. I use one at uni, gives me much better speeds than the wireless card did.
