  1. How? I've had the same pair of glasses for, like, 15 years or something.
  2. Dark times, indeed.
  3. Despite the lack of action, this still feels very FLCL. In that, we still have no idea what the fuck is going on with anything, and (hopefully), things start coming to a head and getting some explanation before the end, when it will take several rewatches to really catch all the hints of underlying plot, while still leaving a million questions unanswered. All the pins dotting the landscape are certainly ominous.
  4. "Eh, that was kinda inevitable, with all the random shit they were picking up lately."
  5. Man, everyone talking about how shit Firedad is for his actions, but all I could focus on was the fact that he's entirely caught up on being the "second best hero." Bitch, you're a hero. Doing it for the fame and rank is bullshit. If you have the power to save people (and you choose to use it), you do your job. Turning it into a rivalry because you're not the best is retarded.
  6. Man, if I knew that shit was discontinued, I might've. But, like I said, since they wouldn't even let me see the car to check myself, I couldn't confirm whether it was actually taken or not. But, I've got too much other shit wearing me down lately to get hung up on one replaceable device. Like fuckin work. Regularly don't get everything finished at work most days, and have a brief chat with the manager about what to do for it. "Maybe you're spending too much time on organization." Bitch, do you understand the words you just said? Spending time on organization is what saves me time later on. I've already had to drop a shit ton of what I'd like to be tracking. The problem is the more work you expect to get done, the more you wear me down, and the less efficient I am. Expect us to haul ass 110% every day, and before long, I'm going to break. And once I'm pushed to exhaustion, it's going to take a long time for me to give a shit about anything again.
  7. Eh. Like I said, I'm not even sure it could be declared stolen. I sold the car to them, presumably at that point, they can claim the car and anything in it is theirs. More, though, is the fact that I don't even know for certain that it's gone. For all I know, the lady could've not looked in the one spot it fell in or something. Considered calling in late to work this morning and just showing up at the lot first thing, but, eh. It sucks. It's a loss. But I'll get over it. Mostly just wishing once again that I could find any other app or device that will recognize the custom start/end times I've set for a lot of my music. After being so spoiled, it's hard to go back to listening through live album introductions and cheering and junk.
  8. Sold my car to Pick n Pull (since it wouldn't pass inspection and I got a new one). Realized on my way home that I left my iPod in the car. But I sold at close to closing time, lot was already locked. Told nothing should happen to it, come back tomorrow. Lot's still locked (I guess not open on Sundays or whatever maybe), but they at least go out to check my car (cuz apparently I'm not allowed to see it myself on a locked lot). They manage to bring me the adapter cord it should've been plugged into, but no iPod. Extra kicker, the Nanos are discontinued, so I couldn't replace it if I wanted to. Idk what I hate, specifically. Life in general, I guess. Anyone know if pawn shops are required to sit on anything brought in before they can put them up for sale? I don't know if I can even actually report the item as stolen. Might not even be getting pawned off.
  9. Oh. Yes. In that regard, not so great. But that's just a tangent to the larger symptom of this show not really having a core storyline anymore. Personally, while I can sorta turn my brain off and enjoy this to some extent, there's always part of me that really finds the whole chimera ant concept to be absurd. Unless it's some magical new species, I can't really suspend disbelief that these wouldn't have dominated ages ago. And since they were established as some sort of known problem, it just doesn't make sense to me that it's never escalated to this point before. If it has, it seems like something that, without just the right people and circumstances in place, they could easily get established enough that eradication may be nigh impossible. I mean, isn't the whole reason they're attacking now because if King feeds, he'll be potentially unstoppable, right?
  10. Newcomer? They did bring up the old man a good while back. I had actually been wondering recently what he was still up to with the meditation thing. A bit disappointed the others weren't including him as part of their plan. Evidently he knew exactly when to kick things off.
  11. I mean, the whole "this is a story about growing up" thing was maybe kinda too heavy handed here. Still hoping somewhere along the way we get some actual motive from Haruko. And that it's more than "I was just here to bring out your full potential all along" or something. She always has her own angle. Otherwise, I'm enjoying the characters.
  12. You've taken a magical day they were going to remember for the rest of their lives, and made it all about you. Incredible.
  13. I bet they scout the area to look for the flimsiest plants/trees to get in shot, to make the wind look all the more dramatic. Maybe it's just a case of weather people get way too excited for any inclement weather, while the rest of us just say "Eh, it's a little wet and windy out, but it's no worse than any other big thunderstorm."
  14. Why not both?
  15. One year, during a pretty bad flood, while I was working pizza delivery, I joked that we should get a jet ski to deliver to everyone trapped. The more I thought about it, the more fun the idea sounded.
  16. 3 pm sounds like heaven. The lawn care service for the development I used to live in mowed in the am. Fuck that noise. Lawns are an abomination anyway. Let that shit go wild, reintroduce native species. Support the ecosystem. But mostly just quit with the noise while people are sleeping.
  17. Not a bad idea trying the hand sanitizer. The ink seems to be alcohol soluble, so you mighta got there eventually, if you had something to wipe it off on.
  18. I'm just saying, my lack of knowledge thinks those metals won't forge weld properly.
  19. Gonna take a wild guess and say you're trying to fuse metals that don't want to fuse.
  20. It's even more fun when the name gets retired. You get to be a famous hurricane.
  21. We truly are from different worlds.
  22. Yeah, and I'm telling you, it should be "oop." Where the fuck did these fuckwits get the idea that "ope" gets a long o sound? Nope. Rope. Dope. Slope. (hey, remember when that was a censored word, lol). "Ope" as presented doesn't follow established expectations. I see "ope" and it sounds like the end of all those other words. It sure as hell doesn't sound like "oop," which is the word/noise in question.
