Doggie

Next year, this blog will be ten years old.

I am surprised. I suddenly thought of this entry because I lost my temper Monday again, and I remember saying that I don't like complaining a lot about personal problems because of a few reasons. One of them being that it shows how you're like on a social level. It can show your real self. Also, ranting won't change it.

But I guess I like telling myself, "Don't ever do what this other person is doing".

Maybe the reasons are under my "ugly side" tag somewhere.

Looking back, I can't seem to remember anything blatantly discriminatory. As in, putting it down on text.

"Racism", "misogyny", "homophobia" (even though fanficrants may disagree), "antisemitism", "xenophobia", anything with bigotry.

Or is anti-teen pregnancy = misogyny?

Majority of it was teen pregnancy. I guess "ageism" is discrimination too? The other is criticizing religion. Atheism? I don't know. I don't recall directly saying that "I don't believe in God", but my biggest issue is what religion can do to people's egos and that it's commonplace. So commonplace that what is considered "good", or what bibles and scripts say can be interpreted differently. Also, religion has its own sense of bigotry, or maybe that is our fault?

So ageism and atheism?

Which reminds me, Reasons of Anti-Semitism. I still don't get why anti-jew exists. There is this survey:

More than a quarter of the world is anti-Semitic

One quarter of adults worldwide 'deeply infected' with Anti-semitism

I am happy to be naive sometimes.

1.) Colleagues offer tributes to late VA...

2.) JewWario (1971-2014)

I'm really tired, and I won't say anymore.

My week starts rough and ends rough. I had an ugly 'hate dream", which I didn't want to agree on, and my Sunday started rocky. Now I wonder about myself, and if my dream reflects myself. Or didn't I say before that dreams are mostly negative?

I almost didn't want to go anywhere.

Anyways...back to the title.

America is, apparently. And Britain isn't happy.

I'm sure most of us dislike war for obvious reasons, and either inside or stated openly, we have conflicting reasons over why we should go or why we should not go. First I thought, I agreed with what John Kerry said Liberals liberals, Lib-tards, whiners, dumbass, huah huah huah with "speaking to us [the people of the nation] for an answer" at the start of the announcement. I couldn't hear everything because I was in my car on a short break, listening to the radio.

Did America, and myself as an American, wanted payback for 9/11? Yes. Do I dislike violence? Yes. Do I like self-defense? Yes. Do I like to see innocent children and medical personnel get killed? NO! A one-track mind. Even in Hetalia (Axis Powers ヘタリア), America is portrayed with a "justice loving" stereotype. There's also a ton of other Japanese manga/anime and games; one that sticks out in my memory the most is my bro GALFORD from Samurai Showdown (Samurai Spirits) series! =D

But the question is: Why help Syria? Is America the Superman of the world?
And what would our image be if we did nothing?

Oh BTW,

( More tipping politics scale. No idea why I was rambling about mentality )

I am not denying anything. I guess someone has to do it. Right needs to punch the Left radicals and Left needs to the punch the Right radicals. Wouldn't call it "news".

With that said, 50 years ago, MLK made his "I have a dream" speech.

I'm putting up a photo of Kaze Tachinu because:
1.) Airplane!
2.) Hirokoshi Jiro looking cool
3.) It's flat out cool
4.) Miyazaki Hayao's passion and pacifist beliefs
5.) I want to watch it

So Miyazaki is getting criticized for worshiping Hirokoshi as a hero. The movie is a tribute to the warplane engineer, his dream, and his struggle during the Depression and 1930s earthquake. Miyazaki spoke against the Prime Minister and his idea to revise the Renunciation of War of Japan's Constitution. Miyazaki was also against "re-writing the truth" (aka: reading only what we choose to know).

Banning of "Barefoot Gen" in children schools

I can't say anymore until I watch the movie. But, since Hiro was willingly building warplanes responsible for the historical incidents that make Japanese and Koreans alike sensitive, what is Miyazaki's view? What am I missing? Is it just Hiro's desire? No matter what his Zero fighter did?

Vehicles are flexible and don't have to be built as weapons. Even though, I TOO think that fighter planes are pretty darn cool. They maximum the effectiveness of aerodynamics, and look pretty sexy while flying.

Also, Miyazaki is retiring? Naaaaah, you wouldn't do that would you?

Which reminds me, I am writing a fictional story about a pilot who loves flying. He graduated from Officer's training and eventually became a fighter pilot, because he was inspired to love fighter planes. After a match against a rival, he mention that non-simulated air combat will be the test he needs to further pursing his flying craft. Before that, he questioned why America went to war and what did it mean to "be an American"?

I knew exactly what I was talking about?

Customers Suck

Lazy [bleeps] who don't put away...

Electric scooters and warning

Awful links, but express my mind sometimes.

No, not about laziness, even though I know how they feel, but about methods.

and some freakin' how I found a racist site connected with this If you put a warning sign on something, but there's the common example of those who don't follow the rules, then maybe the sign/tag is pointless? Maybe, maybe not, but you have to set an example for some.

But if there's one thing we all do, if you can get away with anything more than once, and without injury, you can dismiss warnings.

It's been a cool week recently. Cool, and plenty of rain. I see people who drive to the store with their own fancy electric carts; however, there are the ones inside the store that are used for indoors only. Or so that is what it says.

Whatever the hazard is for using indoor kart in the opposite way, I guess the hazard for using indoor karts oppositely is required to be thought out by the kart operator and the store associates.

Those karts can barely contain power, and can get caught outside dead in any distance from the store. Some people take the cart to the bank. It's not a car. And what if it rains and gets stuck outside and drenched?

I can get electrocuted you know? Plus, the electro-karts are considerably few in number. And they are no faster than humans of walking speed. Or maybe that's just my opinion. If you take the cart outside, you'll have to emphasize more on using safety techniques. And you can't move out of the way if a car operator is not careful, especially during rush hour.

But yes, I always get that stare like I'm a buffoon because I wonder over rules or I accept the less popular opinion.

More
Did I mention that I was reading the Sailor Moon comic?

Which made me wonder about the remake and the changes over the anime, which I'm losing memory of the more I read the comic. Because, the comic is quite different, like with the pacing and what happens in the Dark Moon Kingdom. Heck, it's even more sappy.

I can't talk anything past pre-R reason just yet. Geez, each chapter feels so long.

Kamen Rider Wizard is almost over and it still feels like a big mystery. The suspense.

VID TIME!
Maybe you better not eat anything while watching this:

"It's what one petition on the White House website proposes." (Source...oh??)

Why would you even consider a petition?! I'm sure it's a joke, but it's just so bad.

I'm mostly conservative about it, but IF you COULD change it, could you at least pick a better song? Hell, I'll pick "The Locomotion" over this.

Seiyuu-related entry!

Just something to pass boredom, and I need to practice in using Powerpoint, Task Manager, and Excel much more. The question is how? During my free time, I try to employ them into writing, like for collecting data. Sometimes I get so deep into it, I make graphs for characters or timelines.

Anyways, I was browsing for roles on Ishida Akira (ie: main characters) and found these links with opinions on Voice quality compatibility. The page creator is named "YUZU" (ユズ). In the link, for each gender, Yuzu lists six different categories to describe the voice quality. The qualities are scaled on a radar graph in clockwise:

MALE:
Choices: Furuya Toru, Nobutoshi Kanna, Suyama Akio, Midorikawa Hikaru, Koyasu Takehito, Kamyia Akira, Okiayu Ryotaro, etc
「少年らしさ」：Boy
「熱血さ」：Passion (quoting, "Simply put, "Super robot anime or Sports maniac suitability in old days")
「クールさ」：Cool
「色気」：Sexy/H voice
「渋さ」: Elderly voice/astringent
「コミカルさ」：Comical (Gag)

FEMALE:
Choices: Koyama Mami, Ohara Noriko, Hidaka Noriko, Hayashibara Megumi, Fucami Rica, Mitsuishi Kotono, Han Keiko, Koorogi Satomi, etc
「少年」：Boy voice.
「子供」：Child voice. Usually 12 and under
「少女」: Girl voice. Usually arouns 12 - 17
「お姉」：Big sister like. Usually around 18 - 20
「熟女」：Attractive woman. Usually over 20yo
「ギャグ」：Gag. Comical/joke type.

Looking over the opinions, or from what I can gather, I found myself nodding to most of them. They look impartial, and Yuru refers to notable roles, comments from doujinshi authors and encyclopedias (for voice actors?).

I especially agree about Furuya Toru, who is considered to have a "cool or oppressed boy voice" (the latter meaning the type you want "to mistreat") voice type. Listening to Amuro, you'd think the voice quality was a little shy? Not to say that his role selections are inappropriate; because he has a general young voice, he is often in the lead. Surprisingly to me, Furuya's "comical" score is low. Recently, I think Furuya's "sex appeal" has increased ;)

For the ladies, I didn't see one for K-sensei (Katsuki Masako). Since I had fun looking at the graphs, I thought I could make one. What do I think? I thought to myself, "what I do really think of her voice quality?"

My graph is rated 0 - 40; there is no "zeros" so it'll look like four ratings/lines. Let's do it with grade letters, from lowest to highest: E (0), D (10), C (20), B (30) A (40).

So here's mine:

Now I'm tired. PC is lagging too much.

Umm...

What this what I was looking for?

In 2007, teen shoots parents over Halo 3, mother dies
LINK: http://blog.cleveland.com/metro/2008/12/boy_killed_mom_and_shot_dad_ov.html

In my entry about the Kindergarten school in Connecticut, I mentioned something about reading an article about a kid shooting his parents over Halo. I guess this was it; I was under the impression that the kid shot them because he wanted to pretend that he was playing Halo, not because they took the game.

Talk about me being blurry on the details. I can't depend on my memory at all.

Here's a flip fop: Distracted from video game, "Father" kills...

And apparently Vice President Joe Biden wants to censor video games? What, do you want the ratings to be Teens or less?

Bye Mortal Kombat

It's that time again for Midou Ban (above photo) and me. I just talk about myself; I am told to be pretty honest.

On the 17th of this month, we grow another year. Midou Ban is just a fictional character; as for me, I'm still dumb, judgmental, and private.

I wonder if anyone thinks of me as a "misogynic" (women contempt) for slamming teen parents throughout this entire blog? Because the majority of the time, I don't talk about the fathers, do I? I don't remember.

Teen parent dislike is on par with other negative prejudice such as misogyny, sexism, racism, homophobia, stemming from the wrong examples.

Shame that I know this and won't change; this is probably my worst prejudice.

If I say "sorry' for being offensive, it wouldn't be true at all would it? Because I kept talking about it in my blog.

Unfortunately for me, I have yet to find a good example of valued youth parenting. I will remain small-minded until I do. What I slam is irresponsibility and potentially endangering children. And yes, of course, adult parents too. It gets me upset when people talk about pregnancies being accidents, or they don't want to have children, OR they hide their pregnancy (not the bikini syndrome) or they say it's not theirs (ie: the guys).

Or even worse.

No, do not use the "A" word around me. Kids aren't the "A" word. I will not agree with it. I am not sympathizing with the infertile or "just lucky this time" misconception either

I also dislike PEER PRESSURE! Especially with sex involved, and young people are really in that department. Bullying!

Mom throws newborn in dumpster

This may not be a usual case. It's hard to say if the baby was alive or not before being tossed because it was premature. Still, it's wrong to toss a living anything in the trash.

I complain about it a lot because it is youths. I can't find respect in those who make something so natural look so embarrassing and so condemned, and use sex so carelessly. I also don't like it when children lack a parent or parents.

If you don't want children, don't do what makes the children, birth control or not. If you're not prepared, then what?

1.) 50% of U.S teens are doing it; about 33% preg.

2.) Many teens, especially boys, feel pressure to have sex before they are ready. According to recent research, some 63% of teens believe that waiting to have sex is a good idea, but few people actually do.

We, at a young age, develop a mature reproductive system. Therefore, we also have a young legal consent age and a young legal marriage age (younger historically). Also in the U.S, when you're 17, you can enter the military with parental/guardian approval. At 18, you can register to vote; depending on the state, you can be at least 14 years old to obtain a drivers licence. Those are other examples. Why was this set up? There's the cognitive potential that this can all work well. The potential of holding yourself accountable; you're at an age that you can make choices. That is all I'm saying. And no, I'm not saying force yourself into marriage.

I highly criticize my niece's parent because she is provocative and just not smart. Recently, she got into some public embarrassment. The majority of the time, during youth, you don't think about having kids. Niece's parents sure as hell weren't because they kept lying about it. That's a good sign isn't it? Hmm, I guess niece would not have had a father because the idiot kept lying.

They aren't influenced by parental expectations. I'd probably think differently if they did. And Stink-Pest has a terrible character in particular.

When you have children, it can disturb everything. I spent a whole year caring for niece and parents (both were sickly) because the brat parent was in school. You have to make changes; it doesn't entirely have to do with getting a job, stop the baby's crying, feeding it, and changing the diaper.

You're probably thinking that I should never have kids because I'm a hateful, shallow person. Moreover, I'd be a terrible parent, something that I highly criticize, because what would I do if my son or daughter had children as a young age?

I wonder if I'm going to regret not being THAT young. I don't have children yet. Maybe I'll be 35 or 40... Frankly, I can't maintain a relationship or children. Socioeconomic-wise, I'm pretty low. As for my self-worth, it isn't the best either.

But I am quite fine the way I am. Sometimes, things develop late. I would tell myself that I'm a crappy person for being "retarded" or the like, and I still feel like I have a lot to work on in my personality. But taking it easy is my kind of way and I don't like being forced to do things. When I put my mind into something, and like it, it's a strong point.

I want to be a good wife one day. A loyal person and a good friend.

This is getting to be morose so let's get to VID TIME!



I'm getting distracted by the Saint Seiya Series. After like nearly two years (?), I finally return to the comic series "The Lost Canvas", and I finally got into watching the animation thanks to deathlike's nagging. I'm a little ashamed of myself; the animation is nice and the OP is awesome!

The Rolling Stones's song "Paint it Black" fits this series perfectly.



I think hanagoke would be happy with me.

I'm tired. Throughout this week, I need to clean for Christmas dinner.

It's Michigan time! aside from the Lions losing

LINK: "Right to Work" and the Middle Class

I was wondering about "Right to Work" bill and I can't seem to find much information, at least not much articles on how much of a "bad idea" it is.

I do recall an old proposal on whether, or not, to support equal worker rights (financial wise).
