Pen Spinning and dNeero 007

So, uhh, I came across this video somewhere.
I didn't know there was actually a thing such as "Pen Spinning".



Seriously though, I find it really kewl~!
Unfortunately my fingers are stupid, and so am I. So, uhh, fat chance.
But really, all that exhibition would go well with elfen lied style pen-shooting!
It lives up to the Japanese practice of overly dramatic gestures. ^____^
Well, that's all~

Yes I know. I'm an alien from outerspace lost on Earth.
So what?
Lalala~ ^______________^

The Dark Knight

But this movie should've been entitled The Joker or some creative way to say that (sorry, brain's not cooperating). Why? This isn't about Batman vs. Joker. This is about the whole city vs. Joker. So Joker is the main character, even though he's the antagonist. His character came out so strongly, and Batman was just a shadow in this movie. And because of that, darnit, I give it a freakin 9.9! I don't like overly dramatic martyrdom drama, that's why. But heck, I don't really care 'cuz I just enjoyed the movie, mostly!
Hey, maybe they even messed up the drama part 'cuz they enjoyed the Joker so much but they had to, you know, somehow make it look like Batman was the main character, thus the martyrdom drama at the end. Good enough attempt, I suppose! But Joker still wins, lol.
And I will never wear hockey pads and ALWAYS bring a peeler with me!
Joker ftw~

Well, I guess I just like these types of movies. The action-packed, funny-convo packed, funstuff-packed kind of movies. Just like the Matrix! "I know kung fu." LOL.
Well, this post will get incoherent if I try to make it any longer, sooo.. I'll just cut it here~ With my peel-o-peeler magic!

dNeero 006 & Recycled Content FTW!

Well, it isn't exactly recycled.
I just remembered that I emailed a friend of mine some... err.. resources... And due to the part of me that thinks the space (never waste space :3) big yahoo mail textbox is wasted when it's blank, uhh... I just suddenly randomly rambled.
Fun thing about it is, after all that rambling, I get only one line of reaction. And not even a MOO of agreement, or pondering, or whatever in it!! Makes me wonder whether anything in my rambling actually got through. >_>
No, don't get me wrong, I don't feel bad about that. I'm just pretty freakin' amazed. Even though I actually predicted my friend's reaction to the word... But not to the character since I got the punctuations wrong. Oh well. Predictor power failure.
Me and philosophy--... ... both words in the dictionary.
Hey, it rhymes. O.o

I was wondering you know.. why Eden cheese is named so.. Is it because there was a person named Eden and Eden cheese was named after him/her? Is there actually a person who liked Eden cheese so much that he/she named his/her kid Eden? Or maybe a pet? Eden isn't a very cute pet name. -_- Maybe their farm (where the cows resided) was so pretty they considered it as their 'Eden' and so they named the cheese they produced Eden...? Then, by working hard day by day, Eden cheese is now where it is. Happy ending!! yay!! ^_^ Or maybe they were tricked by someone to sell their secret cheese formula to the ridiculously rich and money-hoarding capitalists? Oh no. sad ending. Well, maybe not, right? Maybe they didn't know what they were missing. Like, maybe they were offered quite a big amount for it.. after all, they might have been a simple family in their quiet little farm.. Sincerely thinking that that place was 'Eden'. No better place than home. Something like that... Somehow, all this babbling has made me want to find out more about the history of Eden cheese. o_O What if it isn't like this at all? What if it's a very plain name with no story behind it after all? Is a name with a longer, more colorful story behind it more meaningful than a name decided by coin-toss or some other random method? Is there more to names than being mere labels attached to everything so they can be distinguished from each other with mere sounds or letters? Is it, after all, only for convenience? It would be very sad if that were so, because some people hold on to their names like their lifeblood. Because even if it were only for convenience, somehow, it sets them apart. It gives them some kind of identity to hold on to... Names must have such fragile existences. They must be always at their limits. After all, with only a few letters and such short sounds, they are sometimes forced to carry the burden of entire souls, entire beings, entire lives within them. So maybe we should treasure names more. After all, with only these few letters, people can somehow feel their place in this world.
And I'd bet you anything the cows at the [fictitious] Eden farm don't give a shit about all this. :))
Moo. -_-

So, there's the mail. But I've learned my lesson. Never put in a mail more than what people want and need from you. It'll get nothing in return. -_-

Uhm... dNeero time!!!
Yes, I put comments, lol. Here it is!! Comment, comment!!!

Code Geass R2 22

Well, so I was 10% expecting the twist for this episode. I don't really believe myself about the space transfer thing anymore. Nor did I still REALLY expect the twist to happen since uhh, 3 more eps, right? But well, I guess that's just like Geass~
If the space transfer thing is actually true though, I might actually pull my hair out. I hope there's a more plausible explanation than some opening the creators left for escape... If that was even what it was. What else could it be? It could be just another case of Engrish, that's what.
Speaking of Engrish...

THE ROYAL HOT LINE. >_>
LOL.
Seriously???
Oh well~~~~
And Lelouch!!!!
I liked the fencing mask better even if you never could do swords~ (cuz ur supposedly bad at physical activities, etc.)
THE HAT, GERRITOFFF!!!

sigh.
Well, the more I think about it, the less I'm believing the space transfer thing, which is good. Plus, it seems from the preview that Sayoko was alive too, so... Maybe she actually saved Nunnally with her superhuman combat skills and physical abilities? I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THAT WOULD'VE BEEN ACHIEVED. Of course, it could be that they just made us believe that Nunnally was within the ~pink light~ of destruction, even though she wasn't. Or maybe that isn't Nunnally-- yeahrightsss.
Anyway, it doesn't matter. Geass defies logic, and in a week, I'll find out how the twisted workings of the Geass creators' minds go~ I'm being manipulated by the anime creators. @_@
Overthinking does not do me any good. Except that I actually mentioned something to a friend before about how the most formidable enemy for Lelouch and even Suzaku could actually be Nunnally and OMG, what the heck, that was supposed to be a far-fetched idea. o_O
And on overthinking... I read stuff on the net about geass, which I don't usually do for anime since, well, I dunno. Which is why I'm not really expecting anyone to read this~
BUT, it was an epiphany. People have been going on about the 40,000,000 liters of destruction for fleija and how if that meant the volume of fleija's destruction, it would only be 21m in R and that sure wouldn't fit 35 million people~ Something like that. Except that the fansub group says that the closed captions didn't actually say liters, it said "riita", whatever that is.
I just happened to look at the fleija screen again (it's here) and it says 20 Mega-collapse reinforced by sakuradite by 20 unitSSS. (yeah, so japs have no plural forms, but discern between english and jap when ur using it! but whatever, engrish funstuff is goood~) Well, I'm beginning to doubt this myself since I can't really understand the Engrish. It's possible though?
Anyway, point is maybe that's what 40M riita is-- 40 Mega-collapse.
It's much simpler math too, 20+20=40, so if we want to believe the Geass makers are dumb don't like math, then it kinda fits. But yeah, it isn't really clear anyway since Geass is Geass. So, uhh.. I dunno. :P
Well, I don't believe of course that Geass makers are dumb, I just like strikeout as a text effect. I like Geass. It's soo Geass. Wakes me up every monday morning cuz I don't do coffee~
More on overthinking...
There was this scene where Schneizel held a white king, right? And now Lelouch is an emperor (king) in WHITE. Uhm. I don't want to believe it means anything though. I don't actually. It just came to mind all of the sudden while grieving over Lelouch's new costume.
So overthinking isn't really overthinking, right?
Cuz it's not like I actually TRY to think... Uhm.

4. Forgot to put this earlier.. Practice with those contacts sure pay off, huh? How does he manage to get them off, more so, put them on with just that drama gesture he does?? I'm seriously amazed. As much as I was at how spinzaku shatters metal spears. REALLY, Geass magiXx.

Underwater Elections

Misleading title? Perhaps... but then again, perhaps not.
The 2008 Great American Seafood Cook Off is now open and you can go and vote for your favorite edible underwater creature (a.k.a. seafood) recipe!

There are five dishes presented for voting. The recipe and a delicious-looking photo are available for each to help you judge which gives off the best underwater goodness aura!
After looking at each of them, I have decided that my favorite would be the Mississippi Redfish Courtboullion with Seafood Dirty Rice by Chef John Currence from Mississippi. I had a hard time deciding between the abovementioned dish and the Pan Roasted Glazed Rockfish with Peas and Carrots, but in the end, I’m a sucker for dishes presented in a bowl and for rice mixed with a bunch of stuff, so I decided to go for the Mississippi dish. Just looking at the picture makes me want to try it! But trying it would involve preparing the dish, and as much as I want to do that, I can’t right now. Maybe I’ll do that sometime in the not so faraway future... Well, if ever I do try it though, there’s only one thing about it I would change and that would be removing the chicken livers from the seafood dirty rice. Why? I’m really just not into livers. That’s all there is to it. I guess that would change the taste somewhat, but even if I didn’t change the recipe, I doubt I could actually make it as good as the original anyway, so, changing it can’t really do much more damage, I suppose!
All the dishes featured in the cook off were domestic, sustainable seafood recipes. Aside from being more easily available, using domestic seafood also guarantees freshness and therefore also guarantees a more tasty meal.
Well, I’ve made my choice. Which would you vote for? Head to the Great American Seafood Cook Off website now and cast your vote for chance to win a trip to New Orleans! The trip is only available for U.S. residents, but anyone can vote and the recipes are really worth taking a look at. So, go and vote now!

Speaker for the Dead

I finished reading Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card two days ago (I think). It probably isn't as high on the list of great books in my head as Ender's Game, but it was still brilliant! Right now, I still think Card is a genius! Even though I read somewhere that he wanted to cast Dakota Fanning as Petra for the Ender's Game movie. o_O Ahem, anyway...
Well, the book's impression on me wasn't as strong as Ender's Game, but I think that's because this book had a different aura from Ender's Game to begin with. Here we meet Ender, all grown up, Speaker for the Dead, wandering from planet to planet. He really grew up. He changed a lot. He's so different from the kid Ender in the book I held onto for comfort so many times. He's still the same in some ways, I guess. But, I read Ender's Game so many times that the Ender there has become a friend, in a way. So, I guess I just miss that kid. :D
I already read Beginnings in Ender's Universe before this, so I already met Jane there. I really like that character! She's so funny. ^___^
Well, I'm really bad at talking about books, so I guess I'll just share a couple of quotes~
~~

Pipo shrugged. "So? Sometime or other everybody wishes everybody would go away. Sometimes I'll wish you would go away. What I'm telling you now is that even at those times, even if I tell you to go away, you don't have to go away. It was the most bafflingly perfect thing that anyone had ever said to her. "That's crazy."
~~

Maybe she [Ela] couldn't know who she was today. Maybe it was enough to know that she was no longer who she was before.
~~

I really liked this one 'cuz a few hours before I read it, I was thinking something similar. ^_^

Ouanda: "In YOUR judgment." Ender: "I have no one else's judgment to use."
~~

"...And that's as sure as we ever are of anything. We believe it enough to act as though it's true. When we're that sure, we call it knowledge. We bet our lives on it."
-Ender Wiggins-
~~

And just 'cuz I really like Jane~

"Twisted and perverse are the ways of then human mind. Pinocchio was such a dolt to try to become a real boy. He was much better off with a wooden head."
-Jane-
~~

I'm kinda' sad that Ender and Jane had to lose each other like that. I mean, okay, Jane's a computer... But really... She was JANE. Ender's computer. Ender's friend. Ender's constant companion. Ender's source of instant sardonic humor!
Oh well~

dNeero 005 and Wall-e

I watched Wall-e.
Well, the idea was interesting... The spaceship world made me think of Macross, though, of course, in Macross you get cutey pretty songstresses and a kabuki-actor-hime, and in Wall-E you get cute robots and obese residents. Haha.
Well, the robots were cute enough.
But I thought the story was really flat.
But I forgive it for the cockroach~
The cockroach saves the movie, yay~

~~




Well, who knew? I didn't. Not that I care~~~
