Miscellaneous bitchery
Published more stuff. But then I realized I couldn't do any more reporting since I lacked license. Gave it to Dad when we went to the tournament since I didn't feel like lugging around my purse in the heat. Will have to make up difference with tomorrow's reporting. Grr, really wanted to do it today too. Wore my long,airy skirt and everything. I wanted to hang out by the water.
To make self feel better, I hit up Walden and bought almost every DNAngel volume in stock. Still need to get 8, but the sale only covered up to 5 volumes. Saw Death Note for sale and decided that that will be today's project since I lack flowers to plant.
Random notes on why Americans shouldn't market anime merchandise. PINK FMA shirt. Dear god, why? I think my brain is ruined forever. Best Buy's choice to place anime right next to family section. Brilliant, execs. You win a gold star. And when little Johnny askes Mommy why Ms. Cutie Honey lacks clothing, what do you plan to tell him? Must say that the cover for the newest DNAngel DVD is Satoshi-skankalicious. I need to find a picture somewhere. Boy looks like he's waiting to get laid. (Web site got pissy with me for linking image. Not like I was eating their bandwidth or anything. I was using a friggin' link. They can bite me.) I almost bought KKM while I was there too. But Best Buy pissed me off by having FMA 3 and not 2. I don't think they ever got 2.
It tends to irk me when people refer to Kaiba as "Seto." I don't know. Kaiba's just one of those characters that I think is above being called by his first name, except by those he's very close to. I don't know how I'm supposed to negotitate this idea for fanficcing. I think people just tend to associate "Kaiba" with 4Kids so they retreat to "Seto." I just don't think that characters should be addressed or labeled by their first names unless they typically use it in canon. Same reason people use "Hughes" or "Tsuzuki" or "Snape" or "Tezuka." It just seems pretentious to me when people try to use the first names as if proving they're cool enough to know it. It's not as bad with Kaiba as it is for Tsuzuki or Hughes.
Also, stupid ditzy girls have to stop tainting my country music. First, there was Carrie and her pathetic rendition of "God Bless the Broken Road," which I can't even listen to anymore. Then there's this bimbo on the radio talking about how she just graduated and plans to marry the guy she's been dating for ONE MONTH because he's the most romantic, sweetest guy in the world. She's 17. She ruined "Keeper of the Stars" for me. I'm just glad the radio persona gave her a stern talking to.
EDIT: Nayami likes Death Note. Yes, she does. Smart characters are a new experience for her. Raito's also kinda hot.
