Due to the extreme radiation levels, Kaimax's old sig tore away form him and became a separate existence.
The end is really upon us.

Means that the fakkupocalypse already reached you and you got hit with extreme levels of radiation.
You either have several hours of unimaginable agony before you or your lifespan will be determined by what you'll eventually mutate into (counted them toes recently?).

People with actual power were definitely being too lenient about this in the past sitting on their asses and settling with negotiations when another incident occurred.
Makes me glad they implemented some countermeasures and more direct strength recently. These are nothing more that acts of terrorism IMO and you're always fucked the moment you bend to those.
I understand that lives are at stake here and one shouldn't be to careless/hasty with armed interventions against pirates but if you let them act at their own pace, they become even more tenacious and innocent lives will eventually be lost either way.
Besides, I've also recently heard that an attacked freighter crew managed to defend themselves by taking one of the attackers hostage (taste your own medicine motherfuckers) and hold out till backup arrived. Definitely makes you wonder if perhaps the crews themselves shouldn't have more efficient means of self-defense....

education means considerably less than connections, these days.So true, it's painful from where I'm standing.
I'm currently in the process of wrapping up my Chemistry studies that devoured the last 5 years of my life and honestly ... I'm scared shitless about my immediate future. From what knowledge I managed to gather, the job market isn't too crowded in this devision simply because there are very few Chemistry graduates (the reasons being the extreme difficulty level and moving on towards a PhD as a natural course of action). Nevertheless, people like me, who wish to work after graduating are usually payed pathetic money or need some major connections.
Things don't look much brighter if I chose to aim towards a PhD myself. As far as my university is concerned, those next 4 years seem even harder than it is currently and completely prevent you from working somewhere else in the meantime (due to the amount of work) while paying little more than crap. To make things even more promising, I often hear about a PhD being deemed over-qualified while applying for a position, meaning that I'd probably be forced to stay in the university/science business till the end. A PhD abroad is a far more lucrative option but it's a pretty big decision and I wouldn't be too happy leaving my country.
I definitely chose my current direction based on interests (I wouldn't call it love) and doubt I'm gonna regret the choice but it's still fucking infuriating that people who needed to put far less effort in graduating in their specialization, will find it easier to find a good, well-payed job than I.
Still (perhaps somewhat more on-topic) that very interest I've mentioned earlier made it possible for me to survive those last few years without dropping out and I will always believe one should find one particular thing he's good at (and enjoys it) and master it, rather that go for the sheer money alone. No matter the financial gain, you always loose much of yourself if you chose the latter.

... and even Faye; Das'waifu. :PThere's just something wrong in the way you used the word 'even' here ...
She's the best damn thing in the series ! (... alongside the trillion other best damn things).
BTW - I understand you're talking about a purely platonic feeling there ? I'd might get mad otherwise :lol:
ehem .... back to topic.
A lil breakdown from your's truly.
Spike : Very high GAR/manliness factors plus insane luck and ability to survive against impossible odds. Would definitely waste the remaining 3 in a ring fight and still be more than formidable in a street fight allowing any hand-held weapons. A battle using heavy equipment (ships and shit) might be the least favorable for him.
Kamina : Fucking insane GAR/manliness levels. Probably weaker in a ring fight but a sword (combined with a total lack of fear and hesitation) gives him a solid bonus on open ground. Kinda like berserkers owned the battlefields in their time. My projected winner in the heavy shit category (provided he was given the Gurren-Lagann).
Gene : My least favorite of the 4. He would loose. :lol:
Spoiler:
Wolfwood : The coolest contender IMO, with a crapload of manliness to boot. That fuckin weapon-filled cross he carries would probably make him the winner in a street fight/shootout. He looses bad in the heavy department though, lacking any personal mechs/ships whatsoever.
All in all my money would be on Spike for holding ground no matter the circumstances. Kamina is a very close second.
Now, wasn't that objective and free of any character/anime preference ? :D
Yo KLoWn - mind accepting a req from a certain Minion V if you got it ?
One of my better remaining alts and I thought a mid-lvl 7 would be a solid addition to the clan.
You can always trow him out later if things get too crowded.

So the countdown to downtime has started huh ?

Oh, and - listen to Tha Man and watch Eden of the East !

@hermit - And here I was, thinking 'bout complementing you for starting to treat this a bit less seriously :roll:
I stated my honest opinion back then and I won't back down from it (not that it was anywhere near negatory/you should blame the 'no' voters and the lack of "passion" at the supporters side). Besides, I honestly doubt it had any significant impact on Waar's decision. Whatever it was ...
BTW - I know what I wrote so there's no need to quote me.
PS// Let's not turn this into an issue. I was just having a lol.

3) Dio (Casshern Sins) ? He was indeed kinda gay ...
