Usually I agree with most of the stuff on childfree. Okay, so there are the occasional posts along the lines of "Pregnant women should just suck it up instead of whining!" and "All children should be kept at home until they're 18!" that I don't always agree with, but hey, they're appropriate subject matter for the community, and everyone is entitled to ( Read more... )

I went to go see Sin City about a week ago. It was really good, not absolutely brilliant, but nice and violent. (That's the way I like 'em.) I liked Marv the best because he was such a freakin' badass. The one character that kind of bugged me was Nancy (the "innocent stripper"). It was like Miller (who did the original comics) tried to make ( Read more... )

Just want to send a big おめでとう out to mopedronin, who got married yesterday. Drop by his journal and wish him the best of luck! :) I hope he posts an update with lots of wedding photos!

Instructions:
Open up the music player on your computer.
Set it to play your entire music collection.
Hit the "shuffle" command.
Tell us the title of the next twenty songs that show up (with their musicians), no matter how embarrassing.
That's right, no skipping that Carpenters Captian and Tenille tune that will totally destroy your hip credibility ( Read more... )

Wow, I've never seen an intelligent lj survey before. Most of the time they just have trite questions like, "Have you ever had a crush on someone?" This one was actually interesting, though. I swiped it from cthulhu-chan's journal, BTW.

1. Do you consider yourself a modern person, a futurist, or stuck in the past?I would say modern. I have a love of the ( Read more... )

Dragon's Lair Comics had a big fuckin' sale (70% off!) so I picked up 3 manga for the price of one. I got
Happy Mania vol.8 (the artist's style is so ugly and yet so intruiging)
Bride of Deimos vol.1
Basara vol.1
I love cheap manga! I tried to pick ones that I thought I would enjoy, so I skipped over the cutesy shoujo stuff like Peach Girl and went ( Read more... )

I'm so proud because I actually made it through Japanese lit class today. I had to give a presentation that counts as a major part of my overall grade while a)being completely stuffed up b)having a major sinus headache, and c)being totally nervous. My partner and I did a talk on Junichiro Tanizaki's "Diary of a Mad Old Man." I really enjoyed ( Read more... )

First off, a note to the person(s) posting anonymously in my journal: if you post something lame, expect a sarcastic response. I usually won't delete a comment unless 1)I find it utterly offensive, as in showing pictures of aborted fetuses or something, or 2)it's just plain spam. Now, I'd like it if you had the cojones to actually post under your ( Read more... )

What a great day. Dan and I both got a free ice cream cone courtesy of Yahoo.com's 10th birthday (today only, Yahoo members could print out a coupon and redeem it at Baskin Robbins.) I got chocolate eclair. Then, we went to Fry's and I got to play DDR for free! :) It's weird, though, because the first part of my day totally sucked. It was ( Read more... )
