    Elyscape you jerk! You like Paprika and you NEVER MENTIONED it when I asked you (albeit indirectly) what a favorite film you had was.

    It's really hard to find a pretty picture of Flirting, incidentally. I think I'm halfway convinced to forgoing it. Eh.

    I fucking loved Paprika. Also, somebody else is browsing anonymously.

    Fair's fair, wouldn't you say?

    Though, I was just curious because of the "about me" portion. Do you know how many people write that? Not near enough I say. Even on these forums. Tsk. But anyway. I haven't the inclination to consider trying to work okcupid. And for the record, Paprika was ever so BOSS. <3

    Raife Oh ahahaha, thanks mate but uh...this is for a movie rather. A film with "Flirting" in it's title which I promptly shortened. ^^;;

    Haha. I don't actually care; was more playing off my earlier post in which I noted that Speak With Bread was browsing anonymously.
    Yes, yes it was. Do tell me you've also seen Paranoia Agent.

    Not judging, Speak. Teasing. Also slightly jealous. ;)

    As was I playing off teasing you for well you know. Ack, inadvertently was influenced by Switchknitter's post. Xd
    In any case, nope! Haven't seen Paranoia Agent more'ns the pity eh? I don't know what that is.

    I think Raife somehow tipped the odds in my favor though, cuz I did manage to find a decent enough picture just now. Thanks Raife~!

    It's a series by Satoshi Kon, the guy behind Paprika, and hoooooly shit is it amazing. Get on that ASAP.
  14. Soli-chan Magister Mundi Elyscape

    Speak, mang. Ozzo's got a point. What say you? XD

    UNLIKED, ELYSCAPE. Because nopenopenope that looks like some serious scary stuff.

    I don't think it was much scarier than Paprika ever got.

    Paprika wasn't scary. Elfen Lied was scary. I admit, I haven't read much of this thread, but, hell, we're talking about scary anime, so I'm in. Wanna be scared? Watch Bakemonogatari. Get back to me.

    edit: Monster (anime). You will have nightmares. Enjoy!

    Hmmmm. Hmmmmmm. Okay well then. Tabling it to be decided upon later. Like, re-pending.

    MatthewF Well, thanks for letting me know to avoid that one! ;D

    Monster's scary on an intellectual level, though. It's scary because it's possible for someone like the villain to exist in real life. It's not scary in a traditional sense. Also it's fucking amazing, so.

    I will be appreciative of Monster's wondrous qualities from a very distant place. Possibly several paces from Pluto to the Earth, distant. But yeah, I've definitely heard of that one. I imagine it could very easily fill me with dread and much pankicking will be done so uh. Brilliant, will take your words and recommendation as trustworthy thank ye verramoch. /le addressing both, btw

    Oh, Monster is only 74 episodes of living hell. Not so bad.

    he's coming for me oh god no stop the madness

  21. MatthewF Elitist Negative Nancy

    Therein lies the scariest part. When it hits the intellectualism, even very early-on, it doesn't stop. Like the villain, it's all about fucking up your brain. I marathoned 12 episodes one Sunday, and right in the middle of that arc, I was legitimately frightened. It tapped into my worst fears. I was scared.

    Oi, what kinda fool do you take me for? XD Oh geez, and the above post pounds in the point for me. NOPENOPENOPE.

    Alright, back to the writing board for me. I need to get this post done. Runrunrun little rabbit, un.

    I had a history teacher back in high school who seriously could have been the villain made flesh. He never revealed the evil lurking beneath, but I knew.

    Ability to understand sarcasm? Kidding, but an eye for an eye, Soli-chan. You already have an honorific attached to your forum handle, so I don't know what else to say.
    Elyscape, Ozzo and Soli-chan like this.
  25. Soli-chan Magister Mundi Elyscape

    Honorific...? Like the -Chan part or Malkavian? Cuz I affixed both, wasn't bestowed with it in honor of a great feat or deed or anything and actually -Chan is mockingly used. Ish. More importantly, where is your avatar from? I keep thinking it's Roy Mustang from FMA but that's definitely not right. Nice similarities. Oh and this thread is for talking all sorts so do chime in more then just when tis anime related. ;4

  26. MatthewF Elitist Negative Nancy

    It's actually Ginko from Mushishi (manga). Kinda how I always picture myself: quietly moving between place and place, never settling in.

    What I meant by 'honorific' is the attached title. 'Chan' isn't necessarily demeaning, although you're right in that it can be. So goes with -kun. I often think of both as terms of endearment between brothers and sisters, as well as close friends. I really don't want to head into the bad side of honorifics, Soli-chan.

    Like leaves on the wind~ *looks up and promptly is interested in the series dangnabbit* orz

    Oh! Yeeeaahh, prolly not wise to dabble there. My apologies though, I wasn't clear enough in what I was saying. I meant in the instance that I am attaching it to my username, rather. Bit singsongy, and more reminder to not take myself so seriously. You can just say Soli really. /without it having to mean we're close enough that the lack of an honorific makes a statement on comfortableness or something and oh geez that was a mouthful *sheepish* Above and beyond the need for clarification! And tangling on feet.

    So apparently I am chatty at the mo' Lawks! Edit: Actually, may just be in fact due to putting off writing oops

    Don't mind the like-bombs. Something about your conversation just triggered a lot of happy feels. I don't know why, and I don't care.

    Awww yeah, man. And you stay classy~

    Ozzo I must confess, it does seem a little bit nice right now. Introspective, but with company! By the by, has anyone ever remarked- Hmm. Wait, let me phrase this better. Okay, so I think you have a rather interesting ability to enhance/turn up to 11? there's an "A" word that would serve well right here that's not coming to me. But anyway, I really must say you've a rather remarkable influence un. Also, expect Solilikes, sometime in the near future because I really must read your IB LP. <3

    EDIT: Tremendous pull in amplification! That's what I meant.

    No, never had anyone say that to me (among the many other things they did say). So thank you, Soli (may I call you Soli?). :)

    Heh, I would do over my Ib LP if I could. I wonder how I'd approach it now? Probably a little bit more fairer to...well, you'll see.

    Well it must be said and glad I caught you in time before the thought wandered off. And yes of course you may summon me thus. *le amused*

    Ohoho, I heard you rather went on about one of the best party members to be added to the crew. But spoilers! Which I found cute fun anyway.
    Looking forward to your take cuz you're a dab hand and not really sure who else I would've wanted it for...if that makes sense? Righto.

    Why does adding an ethernet port so that I can remotely powercycle a PDU ratchet the cost from 50 bucks to 500 bucks? I mean, goddamn.

    Pick up an Arduino or similar device and roll your own.
  39. AaronSofaer Magister Mundi Elyscape

    This is an awesome idea. I probably don't have time for it right now, but when crunch is over I'm totally going to do it.

    WOAH WAIT, BACK UP A SECOND.
    how have you not seen PA? I don't. Man, that's how I even learned about Paprika. I loved -- loved -- Paranoia Agent and it is definitely worth watching. Monster sounds vaguely familiar- OH YEAH THAT. Yeah, I liked that too.
    Monster and Paranoia Agent are things to put on your list, mon ami. Though I would recommend reading Monster; haven't watched it, but I feel like the manga is a lot more...compelling? It's a lot more something, I tell ya h'wat.

    if you don't, you'll make me sad and disappointed and do you really want to do that?
