I remember having a bunch of Bionicles. I also remember mix and matching things until I had some really cool custom ones. I made a few of the Hindi gods for the challenge, and then I remember attempting to make the Bionicle version of Link from the Zelda series.

Some marketing ploys end up being rather awesome.

* kaijyuu wonders if there are any Transformers fans here.

Yes. Yes there is this guy. I collect the old comic books, I've got the original movie on DVD, I love the Transformers. They are just amazing.

If we are all our avatars, then I am a dream demon that knows things.

Lots of things.

Okay, now I see the irony of what I said. But I've been to Japan, that is how they are. They will latch onto a stereotype and roll with it. They'll sit down and listen and learn if they meet someone of a different culture, but until they do they will hold on to the stereotype for dear life.

I see a problem with this hypothetical anime. The Japanese are really quick to latch on to a stereotype and roll with it. If the creator of this hypothetical anime had spent time in American and learned the difference between the stereotype and the actual thing, it would be much more enjoyable.

Pssh. You're all wimps. I'll stick to my mead and my absinthe thank ye very much.

I thought I could launch an ICBM with vodka at ya... Guess not...





Why can't I ever use the nuke?
