There is a cheap pink plastic magic wand toy marketed toward little girls named Evil Stick.
First of all: DO NOT BUY EVIL STICK FOR ANY LITTLE GIRLS. EVER. KEEP IT FAR, FAR AWAY FROM THEM.

Spoiler: show
What annoys me about the Evil Stick is that it's actually being sold, and one guy who runs a dollar store said he is not going to take it off the shelf unless enough customers personally tell him to stop selling it. For some stupid reason, he sees nothing wrong with it. He told the news that "Kids see that kind of stuff on TV every day." UH, NO. NO, THEY DO NOT. I don't know what kind of shows you're letting kids watch, but they are not kids shows, I can tell you that!

The packaging claims that it lights up and plays "wonderful music," but it actually plays the sound of evil laughter when it lights up.
The true disgusting nature of the Evil Stick was discovered when a toddler was playing with it in the dark and noticed that, in the lightup part, there seemed to be a picture. She pulled off the foil sticker that was covering it and found... a picture that I cannot describe on this forum.
Yes.
A toy meant for little girls and designed to look like a pink fairy princess wand...
had something so terrible...
that I cannot tell you what it is here.
I'll just say it was horrid, and when her mother saw it, she was horrified and furious.

So, yeah, Evil Stick is not for children, even if it looks like it's for children and is put on the shelves in the pink aisle along with all the baby dolls, fairy princess stuff, ponies, etc and so forth.

I googled it just now and wowwww that is legit disturbing. Freaking disgusting. Plus the packaging has Sakura from Cardcaptor Sakura on it!! How is this even legal??

There's no video with Akame Ga Kill's second opening on youtube for me to listen to. There are only covers and videos that have their audio muted.

I want to thank all of the artist that have drawn my OCs.

I have no idea. :c Hopefully, people can put up enough of a fuss to get it taken off shelves for good, like they did with Nick Simmons' plagiarism-filled manga Incarnate.

No, I will never let him live that down. =P Acting like we were all blind idiots, stealing from manga writers he claimed to have respect for. The nerve.

Youtube's the worst place to find anime openings. The companies that produce songs for anime openings (and apparently the opening sequences of the Kingdom Hearts games!) are very strict about their copyrights, so Youtube is quick to take down and mute all videos with the original version of that content.

I usually google for anime openings, and it often brings me to Dailymotion and Vimeo.

True but sometimes people find a way. Though the only source to listen to is from pirate preview player.

My idiot ex-brother-in-law moved to Baton Rouge recently for work as a pipe-layer and he's been complaining to my sister that he's miserable there because there are no woods are places to hunt. Well what did you expect when you moved to a CITY? He almost got arrested last weekend because he brought his rifle to the PARK to try and hunt squirrels. I'd have paid money to see that. What a fool.

Also, he hasn't paid my sister child support for 2 months.

When I was younger, I used to load up KH or KH2 and pick Start New Game just to watch the opening sequence.
It's so awesome, I just want to rewatch it every once in a while. :( I don't need to pirate it or anything, since I own the games. It'd just be less of a hassle to bring it up on a website and watch it.

And this is the exact scenario where I see no problem with grabbing it from your nearest torrent site. Nobody is any poorer for it, you already paid for the game and the soundtrack probably isn't sold separately anyway.

I was bored, and I started comparing English dubbed anime intros with the original ones. I hate the fact that I can't speak Japanese right now.

RWBY volume 2 ended last month.
LAST MONTH.
You know what some people are already doing?
Popping onto the RWBY wiki as anons and saying "When does season 3 come out???" "Where's season 3???"

Volume 2 just ended last month! You can hold your horses! >:/

...
...that is EXACTLY what I used to do! I even played it about six times before I even began playing the game for the first time.
The Chain Of Memories bit confused me, though. Didn't know it existed back then.

Now, something annoying me. (Aside from the fact that my mum and dad have left our new PS4 in the MIDDLE of the front room, saying I can't have it untill Christmas >:O)
For the last few years, I haven't been able to get a good night's sleep. Because at night (and somehow ONLY at night), my nose gets blocked, and I just can't clear it no matter how many time I blow my nose.  :c

Do tobacco smokers take a class in inconsideration? My step-dad is a chain smoker and just sits in the living room with my mom and I right next to him huffing and puffing, then the two of them wonder why I get up and leave the room. My dad was the same way, he always smoked around me when I was a baby despite the doctors insistence that he stop. And heck, not long ago my sister was about to light up in my car when I was giving her a ride to work. She got snippy with my when I told her not to.

Did it ever occur to any of them that maybe I don't want to endure the proven health risks associated with secondhand smoke? I don't want to suffer because of someone else's bad habit, sue me!

Have you tried sleeping propped up into a sort of sitting position by pillows? That's what my dad and I do.

No idea. I never fought Sephiroth in either of the games, since he's optional and hardcore.

I had to drive to 2 different stores today to acquire product for my store because our distribution centers can't seem to supply us with out most basic products(Like breaded chicken fillets in our hot food department).....

I drove 130kms today, just got home about 15 minutes ago after going to work for 7am(that's 15 hours)

What sucks?  I got to the second store which was way out of my way....and the product that was supposed to be put aside for me was nowhere to be found.  :l

Also-Rear wheel bearing needs replacing...it's leaking....something.....because I want to pour more money into this truck right?
