Well since we've got a boost of activity, might get some input here.
This is what I notice randomly browsing the very select few other forums I visit here and there, that they have less general, bigger, active forums. Compared to us which is really spread out and all over. Should we consider merging some, changing some, or what do you guys think? |

The funny thing is I was kind of big compared to a lot of others when I worked at Jiffy Lube... dunno why, that place just attracted small / short guys. Maybe that's average for mechanics?
Luckily I have been able to pay myself through college so far, but yeah. I expect taking out some loans here in a bit if I can't get a decent job soon. My parents can't help at all, but luckily my community college is as good as it is and I hope that's the case for others. The thing that pisses me off more though are books. Last semester I tried retaking college algebra yet again (dropped because the teacher was one of the worst I've ever had), and the math book alone was like $180-200 or something. More than the damn class itself. |

You're confusing me Katana on that last bit.
So far I'm passed the weird NORG stuff on the second disc... it's hard to say if the theory is good or not at this point. So far: - Rinoa starting to like Squall seems natural (theory suggests: Squall wanted her to like him) - Seifer started to become a little dumb/evil by the end of the first disc, chances are Edea could just be controlling him (theory suggests: "Why would Seifer change so much!?") - Still unsure how I feel about Squall not having a scar at all. Some people think Edea healed him to ask about SeeD, but I dunno. It's weird there would be no scar... in the beginning you see both Squall and Seifer slice eachother in the face, and they scarred. Is this symbolism here or something else? Hard to say. The NORG stuff is still extremely weird. I have no idea what to think of it. From what I got out of it this time, it was some big alien at the bottom of the Garden that helped fund the Garden... wtf. DS: What's the name? I'm guessing it's the GF Ultimecia uses or something? |

Again, I totally agree with you DBZ was a big movement of our childhood. I remember lots of media as well from backpacks, to binders and folders, had some posters myself, etc. I remember all the jocks and whatnot would make fun of us nerdier folk about it and all, but half the time they knew everything about the show and what they were talking about... chances are they DID watch it too.
I also remember when I bought some movies of it (holy crap, back with the VHS releases!) I'd sometimes see guys that looked way older than me picking out some DBZ releases too, haha. Man, speaking of those VHS releases... anyone remember those giant VHS boxsets of sorts? Or they collected entire Saga's, always saw them at Suncoast. I'm getting all nostalgic thinking about all this, and all the more reason why I'm enjoying watching it so much now in Japanese. I think at this point I definitely prefer the Japanese voices and music, but yeah, I grew up with the dub stuff so I'll never bash it too much! I will say though if you guys only watched it dubbed, it really is cool going through it in Japanese... it's BOTH nostalgically awesome and a pretty fresh experience since there's a lot of changes. Very fun. I also never really finished the Buu saga when it was on TV... started losing interest back then around that time, but I'll finish it this time, so I really look forward to that. Kind of a shame DB never kicked off that much in the US, if that one were bigger too DB/Z could have been even bigger, hehe. I'm even kind of looking forward to watching GT eventually. (THAT dub I won't backup though... the music and catch lines were so bad from the few episodes I saw on TV. I'm sure this'll be a lot better in Japanese). Last but not least, if you guys haven't seen all of Dragon Ball ... GET ON THAT! I watched all if it earlier this year and it was such a fun experience, going in with so much history and love for DBZ, it was awesome. Not to mention the final arcs with Piccolo and such practically feel just like DBZ! Loved the evolution between the two shows. (and if you didn't know this like I did for awhile, the characters do grow up in DB! By the end of the series Goku and co look like they do in DBZ... it was really cool to see).

Not sure if I've seen DBZ abridged... I imagine it's epic though.
Which reminds me, anyone catch bits of the UK Dub? Holy ... shit. |

I just have to wonder though, if we had slightly less forums... would the place look more lively? With everything so spread out as it is.
Dunno where I'm going with this. lol |

But seriously... anyone here crazy about collecting figurines? I am very obsessive myself, but yeah... never really got into this phenomenon, even if it's Mai and KOS-MOS we're talkin'. |

It's just really weird. Are you guys spreading the word or are we just magically ... COMING BACK TO THE ISLAND? | |||

You didn't miss much, at least if I remember right ... both kind of had anticlimactic final fights. | |||

I don't want to go into detail here...
Long story short my WD 500GB Essentials crapped out last weekend. Took a lot of stuff with it. I did EVERYTHING humanly possible to try and salvage any data, but yeah. My last bet is to take it in to some local computer shop and see if they can repair/replace stuff physically. So, just reminding you guys ... BACK THAT STUFF UP!!! You never know. |

NEEDPICS
This is the one I bought... I wish I could tell you guys why but I can't. I don't even know. But, it was ONLY $20... and this was last year when I was working full time, lol. Eh, very cheap compared to what these things go for... I just noticed the first one I posted is at $272. |

Granted, but since it's so old and so huge Earth ends up smelling like rotten socks.
I wish Mai Shiranui was mine. |

Funny stuff, we just gave back my grandma's dog after two weeks of watching him. She even paid my family for it.
Is that normal? Hell yeah I'll watch dogs... and just leave them outside! |
