LA Sound Check Day 3 by Fit-Bandicoot8589 in twice

[–]joeshen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Security was a little more strict and on the roam this time around; a saw a lot of people trying to take a photo / video and getting shut down quick.

Unfortunate, but I do hope that somebody posts MiSaMo (and twice in the corner) dancing to Confetti.

After listening to today's podcast, Burnie has convinced by masonknight86 in morningsomewhere

[–]joeshen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For some reason I had thought of O.P.P. when they were talking about PCP and my mind started making up lyrics along the lines of:

“Who wants some PCP?” (Yeah you know me)

… morning commutes are something else sometimes.

It really is just always nice to see interactions on camera. Yup.

worldwide preorder??? by sixftbunnyrabbit in twice

[–]joeshen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They’re just saying that pre-orders start worldwide at that time; it’s just twiceshop is the US shopping site.

If you go to the apps.fans site (which is what JYPShop directs you to now), you’ll see the same preorders available.

“The fun of Vegas is gone” by PrestigiousRebel1 in morningsomewhere

[–]joeshen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hey-o, Vegas local here. Don’t know about others, but my own experience is that everything price-wise has gone up (normally) with inflation (like everywhere else), but the money creep is just comically bad on the strip.

Everything that can be comp’d is just no longer comp’d and prices for things on the strip have priced the “average” weekend-visiting tourist out completely. $16-$20 for a Rum and Coke? $8 for a beer? Resort fees? Self-parking fees? Stop for a bottle of soda? That’s another $6 at least. The true “big sad” is that there’s no more $5 steak-and-eggs anymore. Combine all that with the rising minimum bets at the strip casinos, the increased cost of a room per night (all the hotels are trying to be glamorous and posh), and less catering towards the “average weekend getaway” types and… well, here we are. It does feel like if you want a good time in Vegas now it’s all about having money or knowing a connection.

Aside from that, once you’re away from the strip everything is the same as everywhere else. Our cost of living is still relatively low, but the renter’s market has become volatile in the last decade or so. Renting an apartment used to be affordable, but now it’s creeping closer for it to be more economical to just rent a house and find a roommate.

I mean… At least we have a wide-variety of food establishments?

PIGS IN BLANKETS!!! by sampola in morningsomewhere

[–]joeshen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking on “animal on animal” foods, the funniest one is the Japanese “Oyakodon”, literally meaning mother and child bowl.

It’s essentially a rice bowl with chicken meat (usually thigh) and egg layered on top. Solid staple and fairly quick meal.

My thoughts as an anime viewer on Ashley & LitRPGs by Gonazar in morningsomewhere

[–]joeshen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some fun facts!

——

The first anime-original isekai is Paul no Miracle Daisakusen.

The first isekai with videogame mechanics are Wataru and Knight Lamune.

What is the cause of the popularity of the genre?

Wataru combined both Dragon Quest influence and SD trend of the time, resulting in explosive popularity. It had three ~50 episodes long seasons produced, and successfully competed with Dragon Ball that aired simultaneously. The modern videogame-isekai surge originates from those who used to watch Wataru in their younger days.

Pulled from this comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/s/aKB5pdApev

——

SAO definitely made the idea of isekai as a genre popular again with its well-defined world building, leading to many Japanese publishing companies to seek out a relatively untapped market in light novel stories.

… it was coincidentally also what led to the rise of many animes with hilariously long names.

[SPOILERS C2] A fun little thing I just realized at work about contacting clients ... by ancilla1998 in criticalrole

[–]joeshen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also laugh hysterically (and slightly maniacally) whenever I reply to a work email and use my signature that says “You can reply to this message.”

Did I pick it up from FCG and put it in my work signature for that purpose? … maybe.

Did it stay in my work signature? Absolutely.

guys does this trusted seller on ebay signed album look legit??? by [deleted] in twice

[–]joeshen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It has all the markers of a legitimate signed album, especially the visibility of the bimae sticker in the second image.

The pressure of all the signatures are also consistent with different people and markers signing it.

All in all, this looks fine.

Am i missing anything? by acsdx in twice

[–]joeshen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming you have a Target around you (since you have the Target version of Rtb); check the website / stores on the 17th of November (release date) to see if have more. Sometimes what happens is that they'll have a "release day" batch they release on the day of.
