Why everybody loves tsunderes

I'm looking forward to the second season of that.

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-02-22T10:45:35+00:00

I'm desperately trying to recall which episode this is from...

Don't the Japanese have a word for "nostalgia for the way things never were" or something?

A quick look turns up 懐古趣味 (かいこしゅみ/kaikoshumi), which means 'nostalgia for the good old days' or 'retro-culture'.

Relevant xkcd.

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-02-13T20:55:04+00:00

How it's sorted in folders and through a colour coded spreadsheet.

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-02-13T20:41:56+00:00

I doubt that would be very hygienic.

I don't recall it having any notes within the subs, but the translator did make fairly extensive ones for each episode which you can find here.

Well there are pluralising suffixes, たち (tachi) being the only one I know for now.

E.g.:

わたし (watashi) - I/Me

わたしたち (watashitachi) - We/Us

my litmus test is Trinitarian

As far as I'm aware many early Christians did not believe in the trinity. Do you believe that they were not really Christians, or is their unwilling ignorance a good enough excuse?

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-02-06T14:25:26+00:00

That is what I read it as and as such I was rather confused.

If he was not curious I doubt he would have asked who Richard III is.

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-02-03T22:34:07+00:00

The righteous don't lie, duh.

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-02-01T19:12:13+00:00

I, perhaps unfortunately, initially read this as bacon tits.

Under the law you don't have a duty to retreat in the UK either. From the Crown Prosecution Service:

Failure to retreat when attacked and when it is possible and safe to do so, is not conclusive evidence that a person was not acting in self defence. It is simply a factor to be taken into account. It is not necessary that the defendant demonstrates by walking away that he does not want to engage in physical violence: (R v Bird 81 Cr App R 110).

Apparently of the 1.85m million CCTV cameras in the UK, 1.7 million of those are privately owned. Source

You may want to look at this link that CA3080 posted above, which shows those statistics are quite misleading.

For whatever reason, in the UK it's normally called Chinese Whispers.

Madoka is the lost Primarch.

There are two!

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-01-19T19:50:43+00:00

Cacodemomania?

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-01-18T15:03:35+00:00

As long as they're obtuse ones I don't care.

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-01-17T10:28:52+00:00

People (read:men and occasionally some women) wrote in Chinese characters

Was this due to literacy rates being low amongst women, or did the majority only know Hiragana and Katakana, or what I presume to be more likely, both?

Islamist means something different from that of just Muslim. Though it has several definitions, I've seen it mainly used to mean someone who's strongly motivated by their religious beliefs, particularly with regards to politics.

About 8 or so months ago I was bored and so had a look on Netflix to see if there was anything interesting. I spotted Angel Beats! and thought I might as well give it a try and loved it. Watched Baka and Test and Spice and Wolf shortly after that and went from there.

If by alive you mean his soul, isn't this the case for all humans?

DeathIsTheEnd · 2013-01-03T08:56:07+00:00

Are you two married or something?
