Re: Wacom Inkling

Hmm the only gripe I have with this is how the sensor is attached to the page, with a tablet you got a solid mass that stays in one place. With this, looks like you 'clip' it on at the top and back of the page, though as to how sturdy it'll be might depend on how sturdy you are with your drawing pos...

Re: The Hazards of Buying Used Anime on Ebay

Was that a big red box? I bought a G Gundam boxset which I didn't realise was bootleg until those engrish subs came on... Ebay has been pretty bad for me, I didn't buy any anime but I did buy a secondhand Nintendo DS Lite. The seller said it was in good condition and everything, when it came in the ...

Re: The Powah of Scalar Pendants!

Oh wow, those pendant/bracelet things. I recognise them, they're here too in the UK except for the fact that they're red and used for ENHANCING YOUR BALANCE WITH A SMALL MAGNET. Honestly my friend and his girlfriend got scammed into buying two of those red plastic things when they did a 'balance tes...

Re: Worst anime you have ever watched?

Thank you for your posts guys, I now what the definitions of bara , seme and uke mean, despite having seen them thrown about for a while. The most recent thing I saw that used two of those terms was in Ore no Imouto with Akagi's sister who likes gachi muchi ... As they say, the more you know...

Re: worst character ever

Every spineless harem anime male lead who lets people of every age imaginable walk all over him because he is as wishy-washy as a loaded dishwasher being carted through a car wash! Grow a pair! Close second: Any game/anime character that just STANDS there while the bad guy escapes/transforms/rants ...

Re: Number of CGs in a game?

I've been thinking and doing the same thing lately, and just looking at VNs you can draw some ideas on what to expect. I think it's important to be able to define some of the elements at work in a VN. 1. Character Sprites These are 'cutouts' of your main characters that stand in the foreground and h...

Re: Ethics of the diet

You should know the difference between accident and murder. If you are driving a car and you hit someone by mistake, it is an accident. If you hit him by purpose, it is a murder. Similarly, If I step on ants by mistake, God will forgive me. But if I step on it willingly, it will be a sin. Meat is n...

Re: PLEASE SUPPORT AN INNOCENT ANIMAL

Just to comment on that meat.org website (which is actually just another PETA website) and their celebrity endorsed video on slaughterhouses, I would not even jump at the conclusion that this is standard procedure for every slaughterhouse in every country. If animals live in poor conditions, their q...

Re: What's your favorite type of cookie?

Speaking of Marks and Spencers - their Dutch Shortcakes are brilliant. You know...the one's that are funny shaped with one half covered in chocolate and the other left as it's buttery goodness? Oh I remember having those, or something similar. They were deadly... :D Though now I suppose I need to g...

Re: What's your favorite type of cookie?

I really like Marks & Spencer's pistachio and almond cookies. I think I'm losing my sweet tooth, but those cookies aren't too sweet and not too plain, just right. Those and the checkered pattern cookies like these: http://mothersday.indiangiftsportal.com/myshop/images/products-big/tokenz-shvcok0...

Re: Wondering about the term "otaku"...

I think in Japan the word has more of a derogatory meaning, as Sapphi stated herself the media used it to label that little girl murderer - they found out he had a lot of loli anime and slasher tapes in his bedroom. In the Western countries I suppose it's a fad to use labels, like geek, nerd, dork a...

Re: No refrigerator

Ah yes, if you're living near any of the poles or anywhere where there is lots of ice, you could put your food outside to freeze. I also believe that there's a delicacy called igunaq, frozen walrus. You bury it in the summer and leave it to rot and then freeze in the winter. Wait a year later, dig i...

Re: PLEASE SUPPORT AN INNOCENT ANIMAL

I don't know what you are talking about. Anyway, there is not perfect human rights or animal rights organization in the world. Every organization has got flaws. Similarly, there is no perfect human in the world. Find me a human with no flaws and I will buy you a new car. Mind you I never proposed a...

Re: PLEASE SUPPORT AN INNOCENT ANIMAL

I'm going to follow what others have said, yes this was a cruel act but the man responsible should not be imprisoned unjustly with a life sentence. I should expect this man to face prison time for only a few months, pay a fine and taught the correct procedures on how to deal with infected animals. M...

Re: No refrigerator

Lemme see, you could always dry and then smoke the meat. Alternatively you could salt them instead or put them in vinegar (probably better for veg). Better yet, eat fresh every day, though it would mean that you won't have any cold drinks standing by unless you have an ice box. Though in the long ru...
