Oh shit, I think I just discovered a kink. I have always enjoyed ripping open those bags, but I have never had the opportunity to rip fishnet stockings. Now, it occurs to me that I may really enjoy ripping open a pair of fishnet stockings to get to the…fruit…inside.
It’s not no shave November is Movember. Moustaches for Novemeber. Optional sideburns but they can’t touch the moustache. Just like the cool old timers. It’s been very clear when this started what the rules were.
And it isn’t about doing it as a challenging it’s about raising awareness and money for testicular cancer.
I feel like one is not enough. The group of them are laughing together, something has just happened that froze them in a moment of merriment, it does indeed feel whimsical. Jolly even. One by itself is just creepily laughing because it’s about to eat your soul.
I generally prefer watching in whatever the original language was (usually subs for me). But if I happen to see a show dubbed first, that becomes my new personal canon haha.
During my early teenage weeb days, I used to be a sub purist, disavowing anyone who preferred dub. I’d refuse to watch an anime with someone if they chose dub. However, I’ve changed a lot since then and now go with whatever sounds better to me. While some dubs are admittedly bad, others put a lot of time and effort into replicating the original Japanese feel, and they do a great job.
I’ve also noticed that certain anime set in specific countries feel odd in Japanese. For instance, when I watched Steamboy, it was bizarre hearing Japanese voices in the cities of Manchester and London. The Japanese voice actors struggling to pronounce English names and words fluently added to the peculiarity.
I don’t buy into sub purists claiming all English dubs sound the same. Truth be told, a lot of Japanese voices also sound similar. There are cliché voices that almost allow you to predict how a character will sound in Japanese just by looking at their design.
These days I’m firmly of the opinion; whatever sounds right to you. I don’t see the point of giving someone shit for choosing to watch a series in whatever language they prefer, as long as they’re enjoying it.
“Y’all kids today spend too much time on devices.”
Yeah, because that device literally gives us access to all the information the entire human race has amassed. Not only that, but we also have our work and/or school tied into it, so for those things we literally need to be on it at least part of the time. Instead of hoarding expensive books that you’ve never read to justify having an oversized McMansion with a “library”, we access our information as needed.
Still WTF, but at least the label matches the picture...
Edit: the lower left probably says something about black pepper and salt (ブラックペッパー＆ソルト) -- I can't tell what the rest of the characters are though through the JPG compression. Probably (<something> included) for the parenthesis bit?
The problem is not so much the total time spent on the device but more the time spent per content nowadays. There is a certain value in spending 3 days to accomplish something whereas imo no value in spending 5 seconds per content.
