I wish it was somewhat more socially acceptable to for man to have cute things, I just want a my melody plushie so that I can look at her so I fon’t forget the joys of life and I just like to look at her (non lustful way) because she just so cute, I want a shelf full of Sanrio characters that I enjoy but alas I’m a guy and that would be pretty weird, my only way to have something like that is if I became ultra jacked so it would turn from weird to amusing but that’s a lot of work 🙁
>if I became ultra jacked so it would turn from weird to amusing
Just embrace one of the greatest comedies of life and ultimately its greatest hack: That if you're a socially presentable gigachad, nearly anything will suddenly become "acceptable." If you exude 110% confidence in your abilities, it signals to others that you're in the "right" about your decisions in life. Nobody is going to question someone who feels like a leader. Most people will feel intimdated and double-think what they have to say against someone who appears to be far more successful than them, whether they truly are or not.

I'm honestly really curious about what Japanese curry tastes like but I have no idea where one would purchase it in leafland.
From the way people talk about it, it tastes absolutely nothing like "regular" curry most people seem to think of, and only bears the same name.
The T&T near me doesn't have it for some reason, never heard of the other two.
I went to a curry place in Shibuya and it honestly tasted very bland and flavourless
Huh, what was it on, rice? Did it have any sort of texture, or was it basically just a crappy sauce?

Japanese curry's a totally different animal from Indian fare, I like Indian way better personally. Jap stuff is more of a thick stew with curry powder than what other cultures think of as curry.

I enjoyed Coco when I was in Osaka. I did find that it was better than the ones in Tokyo. Seemed like quality varied a lot between stores.
Best curry I had was in a random self-serve shop near Akihabara down a dingy alleyway. It's mind boggling how much worse Japanese food is outside of Japan. I don't eat it at home anymore because it feels so far from what it was like over there.
because americans used it as a slur during WWII, and during that they stole all of the property of japanese american citizens, put them in camps that were so poorly constructed they filled with sand every night, and never gave their shit back or paid them.
Stop b***hing about your europoor bullshit. jap as a slur is literally only an american thing, you oversensitive pansy.
Meanwhile this is what the Japs were doing. And they refuse to teach this history in their schools. How about you go frick yourself. Funny how this shit only matters to Americans when it involves israelites.
Kind of like how Americans are taught they din do nuffin before Pear Harbor.

Most of those prisoners were not American. I'm not American. I just don't trust those c**ts. Every time they go to war, they lose their minds. Ironically, contrary to all their bushido "honour" bullshit penned down by some suicidal idiot, when the shit hits the fan, they regress to an animal like state. Historically they have done this multiple times, especially among themselves.
Nice whataboutism. The Japanese military doing fricked up shit doesn't excuse the US for putting Japanese Americans into concentration camps purely for their ethnicity.
Those Lester's Fixins sodas suck but not for the reason you think. They just taste like a regular soda flavor with MAYBE some kind of kick to it. The "Buffalo Wings" one I tried was just a crappy orange soda with just the tiniest hint of a spiciness (like Cinnamon, not even actually Buffalo dressing). I don't remember what the Ranch Dressing soda was like but it sure wasn't anything close to ranch. Kind of a relieving disappointment, if that makes sense. If israelites have been able to make an actually celery-flavored soda since 1869, there's no way a convincing buffalo or ranch soda can't be accomplished with 150 extra years of horrifying yet legally food-sanctioned chemical developments in play.

>the only evidence these exist
I'll say I've seen them too.
They still sell these at the local T&T supermarket's Japanese aisle, right beside the Japanese Kitkats.
More than 100Y though, idk how that converts to CAD but assuming it's roughly $1 CAD they're about 4x the price here.
I've seen some cool applications for it via daw and pedal board bullshittery, the composer of shovel knight and shantae has a video showcasing a setup where software takes the instrument's distorted input and matches it with a vocal track, then adds a whammy pedal to add to the otama's dynamic range, it had a pretty cool original texture so it looks fun to experiment with. The instrument on its own looks pretty fun, multiple octaves and full access to semitones, you can emulate vibrato, legato, diminuendo and crescendo with just your hands. Its cheap and great for learning, experimenting and just playing. If you're resourceful enough you could even use it to play vidya with it if you wanted. I like to chloroform and kidnap zoo animals

It looks cool, but not worth that much, especially when your average SE 3DS is half that.
why the frick would they be packaged in the same box?

In the source (reddit shit) from the reverse search, several people indicate that they order them in separate orders because they expect this shit will happen.
I haven't ordered anything from Amazon myself, but yeah it seems like dogshit service overall. I don't expect much from them though, I have to handle amazon workers as customers frequently and the bulk of them are random middle aged indians, changs, and flips who just immigrated recently.
It's apparently a variant spelling of "naught" and further evidence that Germany should have fricking glassed that stupid tea and football obsessed island.

My older brother had one of these for his (our) OG Game Boy. I get the need for the light, all the Game Boys pre Advance SP had terrible screens that required light. What baffled me was the magnifying glass. It's not like the games were THAT hard to see if properly lit. Plus the glass absolutely sucked
they probably work in the kind where the tray slides out and you snap the disk onto the center thing, but might frick up the kind where you feed the disk into a slot
I think anything you put in would work best if its balanced, which would need each opposite end to have the same mass, like tire/rim balancing. so a square should work, but those irregular shapes could be expected to cause problems, but CDs were probably new enough at the time that they thought it shouldnt matter
Just bought pic related from my local Asian market this weekend and it's surprisingly good. Hoping they have more next week along with Ryu and Ken (different sparkling tea flavors)

Third-party N64 controllers in its day were all dogshit. The HORI MiniPad is rad but I count that as second-party since it had actual Nintendo/N64 branding on it.

They didn’t have much to work with, as the first party N64 controllers are the worst controllers for any major console to date.
LN's have illustrations and can be written like actual books instead of having to conform to panels and episode constraints. They usually aren't well written, but its a valid type of media.
>Light Novels have low barrier of entry
What's funny is that this is true but not because LN's are easy to make; you need a story and illustrations and few people are capable of doing both, so the industry is just as tightly controlled by traditional publishers as any other. There's just a low barrier of entry because those publishers will fund a couple-volume run of absolutely any garbage they can under the expectation that 0.1% of it will catch on and get popular enough to sell merch.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Monogatari LNs. The translations were pretty good by which i mean they kept some of the with and wordplay, i can't speak to accuracy. I also picked up Spice and Wolf but havent started it yet.
The three times I tried reading light novels it felt like I was reading a goosebumps book or basically anything intended for very young children. I've had good luck with books about chinese military generals having sex though. For some reason there's a lot of it and it's all pretty hot with cute guys.
THey are fine since a lot are written as self contained stories, meaning there's no reason to buy all of them, just read the first one and then one once in a while
That said, if you ever watch a modern anime and notice it seems to fit arcs into 2-3 episode packages chances are it's based on a LN
It's a fun game I play every once in a while with new shows

It's not super out there but it was weird enough for me to buy it. Don't know if I anyone should wear this out in public. I would feel more comfortable wearing my rouge the bat sweatshirt over this.
I'd wear this shirt if I owned it but most likely only to a beach or pool. I'd agree it would be a bit much to wear normally. I salute you for being brave enough to even consider wearing a Rouge the Bat apparel. I wouldn't be able to stand the stigma of being seen as some dork or horny geek to an outsider if wearing any

Kirby LNs.
Which actually outsell isekai crap and raildex once a while.
>once in a while
I don't get the appeals of LN
It's the worst parts of Anime/Manga but without the pretty pictures
LN's have illustrations and can be written like actual books instead of having to conform to panels and episode constraints. They usually aren't well written, but its a valid type of media.
Light Novels have low barrier of entry so there a huge variety of them catering to every niche and taste.
>Light Novels have low barrier of entry
What's funny is that this is true but not because LN's are easy to make; you need a story and illustrations and few people are capable of doing both, so the industry is just as tightly controlled by traditional publishers as any other. There's just a low barrier of entry because those publishers will fund a couple-volume run of absolutely any garbage they can under the expectation that 0.1% of it will catch on and get popular enough to sell merch.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Monogatari LNs. The translations were pretty good by which i mean they kept some of the with and wordplay, i can't speak to accuracy. I also picked up Spice and Wolf but havent started it yet.
>I don't get the appeals of LN
It's a fricking Japanese Novella/Y.A Novel. If you don't get those you probably aren't much of a reader.
The three times I tried reading light novels it felt like I was reading a goosebumps book or basically anything intended for very young children. I've had good luck with books about chinese military generals having sex though. For some reason there's a lot of it and it's all pretty hot with cute guys.
THey are fine since a lot are written as self contained stories, meaning there's no reason to buy all of them, just read the first one and then one once in a while
That said, if you ever watch a modern anime and notice it seems to fit arcs into 2-3 episode packages chances are it's based on a LN
It's a fun game I play every once in a while with new shows
They're the weird, autistic, iPad-addicted nephew of old pulp magazines.
The RtDL one is translated by the way.

Its kinda annoying that Nintendo barely export those things or at least put some effort in promoting.
FE engage got a manga but Nintendo did frick all.
a good chunk of these have been translated actually, it’s just that they’re all only on tumblr
these are unironically kino

I bought 3 of these 1 for me, friend and gf back then.
Model airsoft gun version of Joker's gun
iirc they also made a water pistol evoker.
There's a ton of Resident Evil airsoft replicas.
I own this one
I wish the airsoft AMT hardballer wasn't such a rarity. I'd try to make a replica of picrel
not a rarity issue. The problem is that the only 2 brands that made them are shit
>Western Arms: Plastic
>Mafioso Hardballer: Aluminum, overpriced, and barely works because they dont test their shit
I bought this a while back because I thought it was funny
>That inside lip
Would be annoying as frick to actually drink out of
yeah, I mostly just keep it on a shelf as a decoration, snorlax is based
I found this thing for $20 at a local store, good shit.
I always think about the lovely ladies that got their snatches slammed by a free promotional condom made to sell a video game and how romantic it must have been
It's not super out there but it was weird enough for me to buy it. Don't know if I anyone should wear this out in public. I would feel more comfortable wearing my rouge the bat sweatshirt over this.
I'd wear this shirt if I owned it but most likely only to a beach or pool. I'd agree it would be a bit much to wear normally. I salute you for being brave enough to even consider wearing a Rouge the Bat apparel. I wouldn't be able to stand the stigma of being seen as some dork or horny geek to an outsider if wearing any
slightly sexual based fictional character.
I would wear the shit out of that.
God give me strength in gonna do it
I like the color scheme
