Spike ,'Chosen'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I'm thinking of doing up my kitchen in red and chrome. Did I happen to mention that?So I suppose an old school chrome toaster (with all the modern buttons, of course) would not look out of place. Will this do? [link]
I wanna know what happens, damnit. CN is only up to Episode 5.
Edit: What sucked me in? The Hollows being former restless souls. And the snark.
Oh, that's lovely. Very lovely.
The print version and the animated version follow each other quite closely, and they're pretty far along in the print translation if you want to get a jump on the story. I do recommend going out of your way to avoid spoilers, because there are some marvelous HSQ moments ahead.

Hee. I have no idea what Bleach is, but it looks like we're both hooked on anime lately! Mine's an American anime, though: Avatar: The Last Airbender. It's very fun. And Nickelodeon isn't giving me enough episodes a week, dammit!
Anne, I edited my post above to answer your question.
How did you get pulled in before the U.S. broadcast? I mean I wouldn't have known about if you hadn't pointed it out to me. It's a whole other world which I know nothing about.
Sunil, do NOT give me more TV to watch. I'm out of hours in a day as it is.
Maria, I got hooked through the print version, which came out well ahead of the anime. Then, it was a matter of tracking down ahemmed subtitled versions of the anime.
Edit: Yes on both things you mentioned. Very much yes.
This is only mildly spoilery (character who you've not met), but here's something to look forward to.
Aw, thanks again for all the birthday happies. You guys are wonderful.
Do I feel isolated and turn to the internet for like-minded friends or is the 'net sort of perpetuating my sense of isolation. If I find what I need here, why should I reach out more in meat space to find people to talk to? I honestly could not answer those questions.
This came up recently with my shrink. Which actually kind of pissed me off. I have a shrink to monitor my meds and a therapist to deal with day to day living. As long as I'm happy with the proportion of live/virtual relationships, it doesn't matter what that proportion actually is. It's when I'm unhappy that I need to figure out why and how to fix it. When I first went to him, I was unhappy. But, I was unhappy in both places: live and virtual; I felt isolated from both. Now, I'm happy and the point is moot. I am happy with my amount of online time and happy with my actual meat space interactions. My shrink, though, seems to think that even though I have meat space friends here that because they are people I know through work it isn't good enough. And, even though I can go down to Chicago anytime I want to visit folks I met through the internet, it isn't good enough. I have to find new friends in this location that are totally unrelated to either! Bull. Shit. Besides, he only prescribes my meds, I've got a perfectly good therapist to go to with my fears and, trust me, I've got them and she's heard them. We're working on it.

Lemme guess: a Rogue Soul Reaper? He doesn't quite look as buttoned-down as Rukio.

Got that right! Also, insent.
I'd rather my contributions to the tapes discussion be left out, too. I try to avoid excessive mental narcissium and only contributed because it seemed lighthearted and off the cuff. If my musings about my mental state are going to be part of research, I want to know about it upfront.
Sunil, do NOT give me more TV to watch. I'm out of hours in a day as it is.
Hee! I know how you feel.
