Humans are far from perfect. If humans were perfect, we wouldn't be sad. We would have the ability to be sad, but we would never make each other sad. But look at the world - humans make one another sad all the time. A girl loves a guy, the guy doesn't love her back (in any way), and there's sadness. A mother doesn't take good care of her child for eighteen years, and the child is sad. There are a million examples that show that humans are not perfect.
Humans need one another. That's a big thing I got from NGE. Shinji needs his father to care about him, not because Shinji's a little bitch, but because he's human. Who doesn't want their father's approval? Asuka wants Shinji to care about her, because he's the most important person to her, a person her own age that may be a suitable mate, someone to help her stand up.
To me, humans become complete by connecting with other humans. Unfortunately, a person cannot do this by himself. It requires that other people trust in and connect with the person as well. Because of this, it's impossible for a person to just open up and be complete. Even if you have all the knowledge in the world, even if you understand yourself completely, without another person, it's worthless. Because you don't have anyone to share it with. You can't help another person improve themselves. You can't have someone hold your hand when things are tough. You can't fully explore yourself because another person will see things that you don't see.
That said, it's still hard to be "complete." If the other person isn't understanding and accepting, then it's impossible. If you aren't understanding and accepting, then it's impossible. But you don't have to be complete to be happy. Being complete just means that you're in a state of happiness all the time, that little things don't bother you, that you appropriately handle the painful things in life instead of breaking down. It's a worthy goal, and few people get there, but it's still possible to enjoy life.

It's pretty common to get zits when you're stressed out. I don't think they're supposed to be as bad as yours, and I wouldn't immediately say that stress is the problem and forget about it, but it is possible.
Anyways, there's a Russian saying that's been a favorite of mine for years:
"The day you wake up without pain is the day you know you're dead."
Russians sure are optimistic, huh? But it's pretty true. Life comes with a lot of pain, but a lot of good, too.

I like the idea of this point system. Could you give us a list of things you've assigned points to?My point system won't be too good for other people, because I have a different lifestyle than most people. Unless you're unemployed, don't go to school, drink a lot of soda, and have never exercised in the past couple of years, my system won't be good for you. Hmm, that may be more common than I think, but still, it's best to come up with things for your own life. But as an example, here's how I did it:
-5 points for masturbation, just so I don't easily get a ton of points
-2 points for a can of soda because they're full of sugar and such
-1 point for glass of soda/Kool-aid, because it's still better to drink water
+1 point for 20 jumping jacks, because 20 jumping jacks wore me out when I started
+1 point for every minute that I ran
That's basically it. I would also assign points for doing any other exercises, as long as I did it enough to make me tired.
The really cool thing with using points is, you can use the system to motivate you by restricting your activities. If you love playing video games, make it where you have to have so many points before you play, or you lose a certain number of points every time you play. That way, you'll work hard so you'll be able to do what you like. But you have to have a lot of willpower. It's very easy to say, "Fuck points, I want to play something!" and nothing will stand in your way (unless you have another person helping you out or something).

Naruto part.1 was nothing other than pure fuckin win, no fillers, awesome soundtrack, great animations (for the most part) and no fuckin stalling, if you don't count all those fuckin flashbacks.When you say "part 1," do you mean before it became Shippuuden? I assume if you do, then you're not counting the hundred filler episodes before Shippuuden started. Am I right?
Anyways, about Code Geass, I'm going to say something that a lot of people will probably think is crazy - when I watched Code Geass (first and second seasons), I didn't notice any plotholes. Maybe because with the first season, I would watch an episode, then wait a month, then watch another episode, and with the second season, I waited until it was over, and I watched the entire season in three days. I was so psyched by the great action that I didn't bother to think, "Why the hell would the guy do that?" I just thought, "THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME!" After I finished the series and saw people calling it "Code Trainwreck," I was confused and thought people were just being pissy. I understand it now, but coming off of the high of the series, you could not convince me that there was anything wrong with the series. Even now, I don't care about the plotholes that much.

Superbad?
HELLS TO THE YEAH!
I'm kind of surprised so many people sing. I used to sing along to things, but my voice is really bad, and it annoys anyone in a five-mile radius. I am 100% tone-deaf. I still do it sometimes if no one is in the house though, or I do it in a very low voice.
I have been in a really good fucking mood lately, and I have found myself dancing a lot. Not in a club or in front of anybody, just in my room, with my door locked, and the window covered with a blanket, dancing my fat fucking heart out. I'll be listening to music and will hear a really good song, and I'll dance. I'll do some stupid moves that involve moving my arms and legs in a silly fashion, just because I feel good. Sometimes I'll simply think of something nice, and I'll dance.
Does anyone else do this? Like to dance for no reason? Does anyone else make sure no one else sees you? In my case, it's for the other person's safety. No one wants to see my horrible "dancing." I'm not classically trained. I didn't even learn on the streets. I know nothing about dancing. Nada. Zero. The small bit I know, I learned from movies with chubby guys, like Jack Black, Seth Rogan, and Chris Farley. And I'm nowhere near as good as they are. No one wants to see my bust a move.
Another question - is dancing good for you? I've been trying to lose a little weight recently, and I've been walking/jogging/running. If I dance a lot, can I cut that shit out? Because it is really tiring and boring, just walking and running and shit. I'd rather dance to good music, even if it does look stupid as hell.
But yeah, does anybody else secretly dance, for any reason? For me, if you play any Andrew W.K. song, I will unleash the fucking lion, I don't care where I am. I can be in the mall, and "She is Beautiful" can come on the speakers, and I will strut my stuff right there in front of everybody. You came to the mall to buy some shoes or a puppy, too fucking bad, you're gonna see Shaggy move his shit.
Tell me I'm not alone. I cannot be alone in this.

Woah thats weird. Was she 15 when she was being a hooker?Yeah, it's fucking crazy. I met her when she was 14, very close to being 15, and I knew she had experience, but I didn't think she'd had a lot. But she'd been fucking guys since she was 12 or something. She'd been molested at a young age and raped not long after hitting puberty, and she said that she thought to herself, "God doesn't want me to be a virgin," and she just started fucking anything that moved. Except me, of course.
I'm kind of glad I never did hit that shit though. I probably would have gotten crabs or herpes or something.
When I say "worst," I don't mean "monsters that could kick the most ass" or anything like that. I mean, "Who the fuck came up with this stupid motherfucking thing?"
Take the creature posted as the pic of this thread. It is a shirime, otherwise known as the anus eye.
http://www.obakemono.com/obake/shirime/
A guy's anus has been replaced with an eye? Why? Why would you think of that shit? How is that even scary? If I saw a shirime, I'd run away, but out of disgust, not fear. That thing's sick.
Please, share the creatures you have heard of that made you think, "¿Por qué?"
Take the creature posted as the pic of this thread. It is a shirime, otherwise known as the anus eye.
Long ago, a samurai was walking at night down the road to KyÅto, when he heard someone calling out for him to wait. "Who's there?!" he asked nervously, only to turn around and find a man stripping off his clothes and pointing his bare buttocks at the flabbergasted traveler. As if this weren't traumatizing enough, a huge glittering eye then opened up where the strange man's anus should have been.
The samurai ran away screaming, and this obscene apparition was never seen again.
The haiku poet and artist Buson liked this naughty creature enough to include it among his many paintings of yÅkai.

In terms of physical damage, not much has happened to me. I broke my hand punching a fridge once. I also cut my arm open (I could see fat and stuff, it was really gross), and there's a really badass scar now.
If we're not talking about physical pain, then I have a really great story:
First girl I ever really, really, liked. We met, we hit it off really well, we became friends. We talk mostly on the phone the first few weeks, and we really open up, because it's easier to say private shit over the phone than in person. Within a month of each other, we were having phone sex. Kinda. It was pretty much just us masturbating while we were on the phone with each other. I was new at it, so I didn't know to describe anything or say, "Ooh, I'm gonna rub my tongue all up and down your tight little pussy." She was pretty experienced, so she said some things, but it never really escalated to full-on phone sex, where we acted like we were fucking each other.
Anyways, shit happened, and we didn't end up together as a couple. She was drunk and got raped at a party (or possibly asked the guy to fuck her and later forgot it, as I now know she has done before), and she went back to an ex-boyfriend. I think her being raped was just an excuse to get back with him; she really was a bitch. So, we were still good friends, I still wanted her (I wanted to fuck her, and I wanted her to be my girlfriend), and as the months went by, she broke up with her ex-boyfriend turned current boyfriend turned ex-boyfriend again. I wanted to swoop in and get with her, but I decided I needed to wait and let her get over being dumped. I waited a while, and she acted good to me, I asked her out, she turned me down saying she didn't want a boyfriend, she acted like if she was going to date any guy, it would be me, and shit went on like that for months. It was hell. Anyone who's been through that sort of shit knows that it's hell. So, in the end, we never got together, I acted like a complete asshole to her several times, she acted like a complete bitch to me all the time and very seldom acted nice to me, and I haven't talked to her in years. And I kind of hope she's dead.
But that's not what makes this the worst thing that's ever happened to me. No, I found out months after I stopped talking to her, from some of her close female friends who she had talked to about me, that she had acted like a prostitute in the past. I don't know the exact times when she started fucking guys for money, but I do know that she hadn't started when I had first met her, and she had started doing it sometime while we were good friends, and I was trying to get together with her.
I possibly drove a girl to prostitution. I possibly made a 15-year-old girl become a hooker. She was fucking random dudes for money while I was sweet-talking her and trying to get her to get together with me. I loaned her money on several occasions because she said she needed it, and I never got to see a single tit! She never paid me back, and I never expected her to, but I should have gotten at least a fucking blowjob! What the fuck?
Oh yeah, and there's a good chance that I stressed her out enough to give her a miscarriage, which is a good thing and a bad thing. It's good because no 15-year-old girl needs a kid, and it's bad because I felt pretty guilty about it for a while. But I'm cool with it now. It's just a funny story to tell.

If people need to spend money to help the economy, we doesn't the government just spread out a trillion dollars to citizens?

Don't we have enough roads already? What we need is for people to spend money to help the economy, right?I'm not making any sort of point. I don't know shit about economics. I am seriously asking a question.
well in a way the governemnt is giving away that money - but instead of just giviing it free it gives out jobs and uses that money as salary to give the economy some fuel to start off. if the people have money they will spend it is the basic idea.
That's what I hear, but they're not making jobs for every profession. They're making roads and building buildings to give people jobs? I, and most of the people I know, wouldn't know how to do that shit. If a construction company in my town wanted a thousand workers, that wouldn't help me at all, even if only five hundred people lived in my town, because I don't know how to do construction, beyond the simplest tasks like carrying stuff in my arms, but I couldn't do that for eight hours a day. I'd die of exhaustion or something. I'm used to being inside a building twenty hours a day.
They might as well make millions of jobs that revolve around web design. That's another thing a lot of people have no clue about.

I just placed the order for shirts a few days ago, which means we will be selling them soon. If you still want me to post the design I will, but I'd rather you buy one from us.Since this topic exists, I'll use it to pose a simple question:
Any idea what the shirts would cost? If you have no clue yet, or don't want to say, that's fine. I'm just wondering about how much money I need to have put back.
$16 each + shipping
XXL will probably be $17 or $18
That is fucking awesome. That's about what you'd pay in a store, including shipping. At least, here it is, since sales tax is so fucking high.

edit: I just remembered. 4kids created those opening songs right for pokemon? I love those...Yeah, but 4kids also created the rap song opening for One Piece.
One Piece is the worst casualty of 4kids. Not only was stuff censored, good dialogue replaced with shitty jokes that even kids wouldn't laugh at, and skin color changed, but they completely destroyed the plot of the show by cramming a bunch of shit together and actually omitting a whole arc. They fucking skipped twenty episodes and just went ahead with the next arc.
4kids should not be allowed to exist. Kids are not as stupid as 4kids thinks they are.
From what I've heard, most of the flak comes from stores selling games rated M to kids, despite the rating. There's nothing the ESRB can do in that situation. They put the rating on there, the clerk ignored it, and the clerk should be the one in trouble.
I don't think much about the whole situation though because I'm an adult and can buy any game I want. That, and I don't even play games that often anymore.
I did read an interesting article a few months back in a gaming magazine about the game ratings system and the movie ratings system being nothing alike. It was saying that a movie will come out and be rated R, but the game version will be rated Teen, or a movie will be rated PG-13 and the game version will be rated M. When that happens, things get all screwed up, because a fan of the movie would want to play the game and vice versa (sometimes). Or a parent could look at one and think both are suitable for their kid, though that can be solved by having parents pay attention.
I'd like to see games rated by an impartial organization that is underneath the government, but what are the chances that's going to happen? If anything, it would just bleed more money out of the government. It's often not hard for a parent to look at a game and tell whether it's going to have bad language or extreme violence. If there's a cartoon character on the front, and the back says nothing about shooting pimps or fucking bitches, it's probably okay for a 7-year-old.

Vampires ! is this acceptable as legendary creature ? ^^ 8)
I'm fine with vampires and the like being in this thread. :)
Dragons are definitely the most badass creatures out there, partly because there can be so many different kinds of dragons. Just look at the different versions of Bahamut in all the Final Fantasy games - they all look cool, but some look way cooler than others, but they're all essentially dragons! It's awesome.

A lot of sites say that Naruto is the best, and Bleach is second. Of course, most of those sites ask for huge donations each month and cater to people who have only seen Naruto and Bleach and the stuff that came on Cartoon Network.

I was going to look and see arguments on why cloning is bad but I don't wanna look thru all of the posts. What I got was "there's too many people," and "mad scientists."I'm all for cloning but I need to know the down side. The only reason I go with yes is that there is no downside displayed. Religion says it's playing god, or so I hear, but what's wrong with playing god?
Another would be that clones don't have as long a life span as the original. How is that bad? (i'd see they're pro abortion. for the record I don't care about abortion.)
EDIT
I thought clones lived just like originals? Is there any real proof that clones have shorter lives?
I'd say cloning organs and stuff is good, but cloning another person is pointless. If you want to make a clone of your dead wife, good luck with that, because the clone won't have the memories of your wife, and she won't actually look like your wife until she grows up. So, yeah, you could replace your dead wife; you would just have to seduce a woman who looks like your wife but may not be anything like her and is half your age.
