New Office





Is large enough to get lost in going to the kitchen four times.
I keep doing endless laps trying to find people.

Satoshi Kon's last words

Sayonara (Goodbye)

How could I forget, May 18th of this year.

I received the following pronouncement from a cardiovascular doctor at Musashino Red Cross Hospital.

"It's the latter stages of pancreatic cancer. It's metastasized to several bones. You have at the most half a year left to live."


I have seen Perfect Blue and Millennium Actress and thought both were insane/amazing.
I think it's about time I pick up the rest of his work.

Daigo thread on 2ch

ウメハラ総合スレッド369

169 :俺より強い名無しに会いにいく:2010/08/26(木) 23:32:21 ID:OpBL3OYp0
ファンボーイって軽い言葉は使って欲しくないね
ビリーヴァーもしくはファナティックと呼んで欲しい
ウメハラは単なる人間ではないのだから、信じる者もファンではない
神を崇拝するかのごとき神聖性を持っているものだ

[11:23] <fubarduck> "I don't want them to call us fanboys. "Believer" or "Fanatic" is more appropriate. Simply put, Umehara isn't human, so his believers aren't "fans". It's just like worshiping a god, and we are carrying that kind of sacredness"


And in this instant it became abundantly clear that 2ch is filled with the same trolls and morons as SRK.

Stripfighter IV

So there's this game by the name of Stripfighter IV, which is obviously a terrible parody of Street Fighter.
It's the latest in the longest series of pretty deranged adult fighters from this one doujin circle group.
Anyway, there was some Japanese player named Stripfighter, but I knew of the game first, so any time someone would mention him in an IRC channel I'd be like wait the game or the player?
Anyway, turns out...it's both.
I thought the player Stripfighter was trolling with his name from the game, but it turns out he's actually the guy who MAKES Stripfighter.
So instead of merely funny he rises to legendary status.

US Army + Maritan...officially?

So the US Army in Japan is working on an official joint project with the Maritan people people about 50 years of US-JP military alliance.
For those of you unfamiliar with Maritan, the creator released a bunch of educational English help books:



Completely using Full Metal Jacket quotes.
Yes I'm not joking.

Anyway this has to be the best or worst idea ever.
