  1. Reopening Blackboard is a full song and dance. Possibly the biggest pain there's ever been, and it doesn't help that there's always one or two students who are consistently messing up. I believe my policy on it was that it's out of my hands if you turn in the wrong assignment, and if you try to make it up through email, know that you're starting out around the B-range, and it'll only get lower from there unless your paper is golden enough to stick at a B+. Most knew better, but like I said, it's always those couple students that always manage to mess up otherwise easy instructions. At least put in the effort, and I won't mind keeping you out of the D range, but if you're sending me a sentence because the assignment is late and you gave up, what am I supposed to give you other than the lowest grade possible?
  2. I'm glad we have more uncomfortable sex stories in the fanfic folder. I need to add more depraved scenes to the Rukia/Renji story I keep procrastinating about adding more onto. It's been more than half a year, so it can be topical.
  3. It would've been cool if they didn't regulate it to a handful of their billions of locations. I don't want to go that far out of my way for the Mulan/R&M sauce, especially if it means having to get McD's chicken.
  4. Gary Oldman's Asshead
  5. Glad there's one reason to watch this piece of shit
  6. Then you might want to make plans on the off chance you get fined or charged with a harsher sentence
  7. As long as you make it back by then, it should work that way. Think of it like a reservation set for the evening. You've got the full day to yourself until it's your time in the spotlight
  8. Wonder if anyone's come up with Sexy Pennywise yet?
  9. She looks like Robotnik's abusive mother who never let him go out with his heathen friends out of fear that they would've exposed him to demonic rock music. Her discipline of choice for Little Robotnik was the bar of soap, but her husband preferred using the belt.
  10. Can't wait to see the blossoming virtual love story between Kerry Turner and Amy Sutton come to life from the top minds of Hollywood.
  11. The first episode of Starless
  12. HEY!
  13. It's not that different from what was in the original version like their Prison School or Kobayashi's Maid Dragon dubs dramatically changing character motivations to call out GamerGate or diffuse the lesbian subtext of the latter. The "SJW Millenials" line wasn't in the original and they saved discussing cucks and cuckholding for the 9th episode where it becomes a plot-point. Still, I don't feel like it betrays the original meaning of the scene to have the creepy manager feel defeated about sensitivity preventing him from sexualizing the school girls or Junichi going into further detail about why he is appalled by the girls reading from the sex novels. The girls in the show are terrified about having to read misogynistic sex light novels in front of customers, Junichi does white-knight for them around the end, and the manager emphasizes he personally wants his employees to read from his sex novel collection out of desire. While the other examples were FUNi rewriting the entire scene, this translation only does away Junichi and the Manager being more subtle about how they feel about the girls reading sex novels. It still comes across as faithful to the original meaning because that's exactly what the characters were trying to get at with the meaning of the original conversation. The characters and their motivations don't change at all with the rewrite. Also, it's for Hajimete no Gal. The whole show is about why misogyny causes people to have misconceptions about what the qualities of a person's character are. Some viewers might get really emotional about the dub, but if they weren't getting emotional about men in the series being called out for judging women by their appearances, then I don't see why it's a big deal to add a line with the creepy manager decrying the SJWs.
  14. I remember the time skip being weird. Yuko was the best part of the series, so trying to shift the weight of the series on Watanuki was a mistake.
  15. xxxHolic was their best series, hands down
  16. I wouldn't be against a live action Your Name, but I'm not convinced JJ Abrams can do a movie that isn't two hours of lens flare on spaceships. He's horribly mismatched for the project.
  17. The writer of this work would go on to make Guardians of the Galaxy
  18. Beyonce, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams
  19. I'd like No Diggity if the word "diggity" wasn't ruined by CatDog. But if they're saying My Sharona and Titanium were the least psychopathic songs, I'd rather be a psychopath. I'm convinced those two songs could be used to torture inmates at Gitmo. The radio at work played My Sharona once and I felt like clawing out my eardrums. To my horror, they keep putting it on the station that plays My Sharona at least once an afternoon. I have a hard time believing that whoever loves My Sharona doesn't have some sick shit going on in their head. And then Titanium sounds like someone grinding tin foil on a chalkboard. I'd vastly prefer No Diggity and Lose Yourself over the two on the other side of the spectrum.
  20. When they actively went on ASMB and UE, and were like "hey, I like to read this guy's post on homophobic anime, so lets make more of it"
  21. I just rolled on the Okeanos Banner, and on my second pull, I got Francis Drake and Anne Bonny/Mary Read. My jaw dropped completely ::spin::
