I’m sure he’s about to bring up the state approved haircuts (You can comb my hair) and the warrantless strip searches (undress me everywhere) along with getting in line with the state (let’s go, party).
- Comment on Hair color is a spectrum 2 weeks ago:
It is becoming a bit easier to express individuality in Japan, but that definitely does not apply to most people working a corporate job. Any given picture of a crowded Japanese street that indicates rush hour will have a bunch of people in suits/etc with standard hair. Off hours or in the bigger cities there might be a more interesting sample.

What’s the reference? I tried thinking of songs that would fit but all I came up with was Toto’s Rosanna.

Idiotectomies required the subject’s corporation for the best results. Hanneman’s (Journal of Medical Ethics, June 2017) breakthrough, illustrated here, uses bomb glasses to increase compliance. It is rare the fuse needs to be lit, but a lighter should be kept in plain view of the subject as both reminder and enforcement if necessary.

I’d also love to see the manga finished. But there’s probably enough for another season at least before catching up again.
- Comment on Does Super Metroid get any better? 1 month ago:
I miss the days when there wasn’t as much plot. We didn’t need Samus to have a relationship to the Chozo. They were just cool, mysterious alien statues. They could attack her. Then in Zero they could only have a puzzle battle to help her.
I really prefer the gameplay of Super as well. There aren’t so many speed booster puzzles. No long cutscenes. It’s really good at letting me get into a flow state. The music is great, too. If you’re not good at the game, you can get enough items to make a lot more mistakes. If you’re super good at it, there’s tons of sequence breaks.
Another thing I did not like about Zero was the stealth parts. Also didn’t like the qte in Dread nor the railroading. And the 2 remake’s parry mechanic was also annoying and constantly interrupted flow.
I’m surprised you liked two so much an I found the Gameboy one extremely repetitive. AM2R made it amazing, though, so if you haven’t tried that, give it a go. Not sure where you can get it these days, though.
The plots have also sometimes been meme worthy bad. Other M comes to mind.
Another thing I really didn’t like with some of the plot driven ones was excuses to not have items that were based on Samus being somebody’s subordinate. Just let me explore. Don’t give me a manager.
But if Super isn’t doing it for you, that’s valid. I hope you get more enjoyment than frustration from the series.

No, he’s emotionally abusive and insults her to her face. She tries to slap him in the face. Then he’s sweet to her. This is common in abusive relationships and is called the cycle of abuse. If you think that’s a healthy relationship, please see a therapist.
Scene in question: youtu.be/TNyZJ8IF_d0
Here’s what I see:
Cycle of abuse - tension, incident, reconciliation, calm

Studies like this are so we don’t go around saying “Well, obviously” without having actually determined if what you assume/feel/etc. stands up to scrutiny. They have value. But every article that’s like this gets a flippant comment like this without fail. Anyway, I’m a blanket that fell in the ocean 🥁🥁🛎️

That secondary couple is pretty screwed up, though. I’d avoid if OP is looking for wholesome.

Bioremediation of sewage locations in the aim of the new type of shark. The benzoylecgonine causes the shark to seek out these locations. The cocaine provides the desire to clean until every last speck is gone while telling nearby fish about its screenplay.

Capturing a retrograde ejaculation on film is a rite of passage for many medical videographers. The urethra is plugged up by the camera leaving nowhere for ejaculate to go but into the bladder. The prostate is simulated until orgasm. Once the filming is complete, the subject should be given a light snack and released back into the wild.

I read the manga and imagined it with a lot of silence during the night. I tried the anime and the opening and first episode was such a different tone than what I expected that I stopped watching the preserve the mood I got from the manga. Anybody else have a similar experience?

I really like the tomato. Kobato has this whole story in his head that relies on the other person not being a ditz. That’s why Osanai is such a good fit for him, be it opponent or otherwise, as she would never defy his expectations like that by being so unintentional. I’m really looking forward to seeing how their interaction continues.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 release date now set for September 12, plus a new trailer and deep dive are out 2 months ago:
I didn’t really like 3. Gameplay was fine, but there were too many annoying characters to make me want to replay it.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderland dragged on so much and felt like a lot of inept pandering. So I wasn’t as grumpy about how there wasn’t really anything beyond the first playthrough. I remember just running through a bunch of areas towards the end just to finish it.

They already screwed people that owned the original Nest years ago when they forced a new app (Google Home iirc) and closed off the API. The reason I was willing to get it was I could hook it into my home automation. I ripped that thing out of the wall and got a dumber zwave Honeywell.

- Comment on Japan to sell more rice reserves as prices soar 3 months ago:
Domestic policy. The article says tourist and quakes but really Japan limits production to prevent prices from falling to the point of bankrupting farmers.
- Comment on Hmm Good Concept Mad Scientist will like it 3 months ago:
Oh geeze, I watched this out of curiosity. When the time travel happens, the underwear that was removed ceases to exist so she always brings extra with her.
Anyway, the show isn’t so bad it’s good, it’s just boring and stupid.
