@KarlYoshimura I was comparing dubs, as one does. These are ice shavings for a drink from the top of an iceberg to demonstrate how many differences exists, being such a short clip. A small sense of just how different of a show English DBZ and Japanese DBZ is. Funimation with the Johnson Score (Bruce Faulconer started making music in the Ginyu Saga (or his 3 associates anyway, of whom he takes all the credit for.) Japanese with subs and Kikuchi's score. These dialogue differences are not in key places. Every moment of the show has dialogue that is either partially or entirely different. It's almost as if there exists several different versions of the show. I haven't included the Ocean Dub, which is even more sanitized in places. The Ocean Dub is still famous for the "Over 9000!" meme, though, and has a small cult following that actually enjoys it the most. There also is a large population who only likes the Funimation Dub, as they feel the voices fit the characters best, and even if the dialogue is changed to the degree as to be unrecognizable, it still can work for people. In fact, I'd say there are several scenes where my host might say Funimation did a better job with the dialogue than the Japanese. Vegeta's atonement comes to mind. Many westerners struggle to get into the Japanese version due to the Son family being voiced by an elderly woman. In the west, it seems to really be a dichotomy of you hate her or you love her. TB grew up primarily with Sean Schemmel, the Funimation Goku voice actor. However, upon watching it in Japanese, we can't separate Goku or the male members of the Son family from Masako Nozawa, and find her representation of Goku to be truly who he is. Despite the actor being the same, she does an amazing job at demonstrating how different of a person Goku is from Gohan, Goten, and Bardock, as well as Turles. In English, they have different actors. Any one of us could go on about the nuances of how these characters are presented in Japanese and how Masako Nozawa skillfully communicates the intricacies of these characters in her performance. I went off topic... Sorry for my rambling. We would speak so much more on it... but it doesn't feel like the place. We would be better off learning how to compose videos as an outlet to all we want to say about these things, probably.

On my way to meet my sort-of girlfriend. Sort-of because... real world relationships, messy stuff. But anyway, excited! Random question: how many of you have significant others outside of headspace? I know three systems in real life and two of them only have exclusive relationships among themselves, the third's host is my girlfriend. I wonder how skewed this data is.

How many good night?

Good nights

Good night, ring! 😊

Goodnight

We talked about this in our drive home tonight, and she teased that she could go back to that pony form, before actually doing it and semi-imposing herself onto my peripheral vision My honest reaction (although I'm not into ponies anymore she was cute)

Lol.

awake still, huh

You drew a rough sketch before to communicate the idea. In context of touch imposition, though. In retrospect, it is good for presence imposition also. Also Gotenks' walk.

Felt his aura from 3 pages away

idk

Apparently Grimace is a taste bud Why's he purple then

I will if we talk enough. 😄

I won't remember names without a signature

Hi, Ashley! 😊 Nice to see you again!

Cold noodles can be thrown into noodle salad if you have some leafy greens, mozzarella balls and salad dressing

There's no need to reply to anything in a timely manner. I know just saying that isn't going to make it all go away but we all can understand that you have things to do or don't have much to say in general. We feel you there. It really sucks to have a few days/weeks ago by and then there's a long list of things you want to read. We basically cut out half of the biggest and interesting discussions. I wish I could do something to help.

Maybe the vyvanse lowered my body's tolerance for how hot is too hot

I threw them away. It can be hard for me to do quite what I want when switched due to the other primary fronters' attachment to the site, and the collective unease they feel from it. I only seem able to have momentum to be creative or meditate during breaks from the site, because otherwise there is an anxiety to reply. Also one that's been going on for a while regarding the desire to post in more variety of threads besides this one... though the brain wants to make each post or reply feel high stakes and be more exhausting than they should be. Still have not finished reading the Fennec thread we want to, or the Dialectical Tulpamancy one that their thread linked to. New things we feel we need to read to get to come up over time, making it feel worse. I can only think to describe the feeling with the Japanese word "悔しい" or "kuyashii" in romaji. Strange.

That or I'm just overheated because it's so hot here, but if I am then the vyvanse must be hiding it because I only feel slightly sweaty hot, and I've been much hotter than that just in the last month

I loast you not to foast. Sent to the Shadow Realm!/j Linda: they're just trying to appease people like Shaula./j I can understand why they made those changes but Yu-Gi-Oh finger guns and such are definitely not the best censorship, lol. Then again, nothing beats a jelly donut./j Shaula: goodness! I do hope you'll be okay.

Wow I'm actually dizzy, like my vision sways when I walk I haven't been sedentary for over an hour all day, so this seems like a side effect of the generic vyvanse... That's pretty bad if so

I don't think there's any good reason to eat cold noodles

Chagrin of cold noodles post.
