  1. Tried blowing on money but wouldn't inflate so I stopped. Seriously, no. That's the last thing I would ever do. I always have a backup and I make sure that I have savings equivalent to 6 months worth of my monthly living expenses for emergencies. I normally deduct savings first before actually spending on anything, that includes bills. So everytime I buy something that has a recurring bill attached to it, I compute first if I can afford it before comitting to it.
  2. 5 hours? More like 18 hours. Watched a full season of 24 in one sitting.
  3. You say apocalypse but the image is that of Darkseid (or perhaps this is a DC version of Apocalypse that I'm not aware of). If you're talking about Apocalypse of the X-men, Thanos will definitely wipe his arse on the floor. Darkseid, however, is a different story. If this is somehow a DC Apocalypse, then I do not have enough information to offer an opinion.
  4. Wasn't that fan made? They're using the design which I would like to call "Ultraman Basic". Although the dynamics looks good, there are still flaws if you scrutinize every bits and pieces of the video.
  5. Yup, I've heard of her. That song in particular was the opening song for Gurren Lagann. But to be honest, I've never really paid any much attenton to her.
  6. Honesty as a best policy? Absolutely. I make it a point never to lie. I just don't tell the whole truth. I've manage to learn avoiding telling the truth without ever lying. It's something similar to what Jess mentioned.
  7. I suppose I should have the biggest say in this considering I was the one who rebuilt the wiki from the ground up. A part of me would be sad if the wiki is to be deleted since I spent a considerable amount of time building it. But then again, looking at the hits and statistics of the wiki, it seems that it doesn't get the much needed attention that it should be getting. If there is no use for the wiki, then there is really no reason for me to say no even though it has some sentimental value to me. Additionally, I don't really own any of it so I really don't have any rights to go against the wish of Ryuki/Jess. I guess you could consider it as just bragging rights now. Again, I support whatever decision Ryuki/Jess makes as the owner. Like I always say I'm just here to give my support.
  8. I'm touched that somebody actually remembered me. Anyway, whatever happens here happens. I'm just here to support Ryuki/Jess. Since I'm not necessarily needed nowadays, I'm just lurking around. I do have a confession to make, despite the countless volume of Guyver books that I've purchased, I've never actually owned one. Should I come clean?
  9. Yay! It's also available on youtube via Gundaminfo channel. Yay!
  10. First year college. I had driving lessons to tell me how to move forward and backward. But traversing the dangerous wild traffic of the city I learned by myself. It's totally different in learning how to operate the vehicle and how to really drive.
  11. I think they disowned the second movie. Are we talking about the one where it depicts the future and that all highlanders are supposed to be aliens and Ramirez miraculously resurrects? Oh right, that movie didn't happen.
  12. I got you guys beat. Castlevania Symphony of the Night. it's so good that I've been playing it for more than 10 years. Aside from that, probably Ragnarok Online.
  13. Another Tales game. How many does this make it? My favorite is still the first, Tales of Phantasia.
  14. Don't have much time to play console nowadays, but I do get my gaming fix while mobile. So it's Clash of Clans and Terra Battle.
  15. To think that FF7 is now a classic, I'm starting to feel old. I guess my favorite classic game would be Rockman 2. Music so cool that it was eventually turned into a song.
  16. I agree with you. that's probably most evident in today's selfie generation. I just don't get why you need to take a selfie. And then taking a selfie while making out, now that's more weird.
  17. There are just some things that you do not do publicly. I'm ok with mild PDA like a quick peck and holding hands. But making out in public is very tasteless for me. Go get a room!
  18. This would probably go well with the rainbow ketchup. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImtWWnLY-Ds
  19. I was very excited for my very first paycheck. And little by little, reality crawled in. Normally I prioritize all the basic necessities before I spend for myself. And spending for family is part of the necessities, so I usually end up with nothing. But of course savings is a big chunk of the basic necessities, this allows me to buy whatever I want whenever I want it. I do exercise prudence and I make sure that I always have at least 6 months worth in emergency funds. Gone are the days that I spend lot's of money for comics and toys.
  20. I started during the glory days of the now defunct theguyver.net. Well, I'm not really active here much, and I'm still here because Ryuki has me on a leash. I couldn't leave if I wanted too. Kidding aside, it's easier to have a free conversation here because the members are mature enough not to take offense in anything you say.
  21. Before during the years of yonder, we have the usual dinner and movies. And then sometimes to a zoo or other recreational places. Sometimes out of the country. Now its just dinner.
  22. Well, I'm currently rewatching Aldnoah Zero. Gurren Lagann also comes to mind as something with a good re-watching factor. In fact, most of the Super Robot anime that I've seen has this.
  23. Hey, I didn't say anything. Besides, it's not really spelled out for you in the book. This was a popular theory fans came up analyzing all the nooks and cranny of all 5 books. I'd imagine that they did tremendous research to be able to come up with this theory. But yeah, basically it's what you said about Ned's promise. It's really hard to imagine that a man with solid morals as Ned Stark would be able to fool around like that. That would be so out of character and doesn't make sense.
  24. I don't get it, it bombed but opened up as number one? Does this mean that the fans didn't like it but the general audience love it? So financially speaking, was it a success or a disaster? I would imagine it did good since there's part 2 coming out.
  25. Well, I think the bottom line here is that it depends on which kind of Iron man we're talking about. If it's good guy Iron Man, then he would have a lot of difficulty standing against the Guyver. However, if it's Iron Man without the morals, then I'm pretty sure the Guyver will have it's hands full. Even then, given what we know about the Guyver, and if this same information was readily available to Tony Stark, he could probably figure a way out to disable the Armor, regardless if he is a good or bad guy.
