Don't shoot the messenger, yo.
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
I don't want underpants gnomes in charge of FEMA.
Seems to me having access to their stash would have been handy for Michael Brown when he found out people were actually expecting him to do something in response to a disaster.

So. Manga.
From what I can tell, Naruto is the Japanese Harry Potter, only much more violent. Which makes it way cooler, of course.

Heh, Tom guess what the topic of my first column?
It certainly is a version of that concept, but is also both goes back to the ur-myth of the hero's journey. Boy literally marked (lightning scar/demon mark) for greatness, girl who is smart but not physically skilled so she can be useful without threatening, and well, the friend. Ron is a very English version of the friend, ie batman, while it is usually an darker (but not a dark) version of oneself.

I can go with that! Although Harry is celebrated as the Boy Who Lived, whereas poor Naruto is almost universally reviled. And none of the Hogwarts teachers read porn in front of their students.
I ♥ Shikamaru.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
