You guys....

make bunny cry :( I put all that effort into writing those poems and i get 1 response...from oj >_> Not that i care, nor do you, but thought i'd point it out that if you don't remark on their greatness now you might not get the chance to-our cousin is back, and is probably not too happeh.

Yey chink trials today. Yay fail. Yay cbs.

And then manifest afterwards, jitain sums up quite goodly:
"Man, i get this now, the spirit of manifest. It's all about being the biggest asshole you can. HEY! Sephiroth! Can i get a hug?"-Jitain to us, then some random sephiroth lookalike chick that's not actually dressed up as sephiroth.
And the not-sepiroth chick responds:"Its NOT sephiroth...."

What happens:
-Getting past security. The guy was like "you're not old enough...you need a guardian..." so i told him to sign it for me. And he did. ^_^
-Wong dressed up as syaoran, resulting in people going "zomgz cute" and wanting to have a photo with him every two seconds.
-Wong jumps some random and has epic battle. Ying rushes to his side after he dies and then theres more lolz. Then the random stabs wong in crotch for even more lolz.
-Jitain/wensi make me skip like an idiot pass a dumbfounded chris/ying drama thingy.
-Runaround pointlessly repeatedly due to wong ninjaing off in general.
- waste another half an hour waiting for ddr, then watch some dude rape ddr (wtf 10 minute song with rotaty arrow thing that i've never seen before, and he wasn't even looking at the screen or his feet), and decide that we'd rather not embarass ourselves.
-James shows up. The abuse begins.
-Jitain being a retard (well its pretty normal at manifest actually) and randomnly highfives/hugs/takes picture/yells out hi at randoms who're dressed up, all the while thinking about ivy's underwear.
-Listen to vincent sing in the middle of the tram with big gunblade in hand. Thankfully there was no one else on the tram except us.

Oh yes and the quote, also by jitain since he's the only one who got into the "spirit of manifest". While observing a guy in a gasmask buy pocky:
"Man, i think i've seen about everything now. First link hugs me, then i got a photo with zack (or was it sephiroth? Or some other person? Forgot :\), and now i observe STALKER shadow of chenobyl buying pocky. My life is complete."-Jitain

And that's how it works. It would be better if that idiot named jitain also didn't make me buy the freaking expensive domokun that shrei stole off me >_>

Lol @ Hungy, you spent months preparing, and the Dragon Lady totally thrashed you when you got there. I did my detailed studies (wrote it up) on Saturaday, finished writing my general convo Sunday night, and did my Mock exam with her this morning. She told me, I had obviously prepared a lot, and knew my stuff, as well as that I had a lot of potential. Basically. She told me I PWNT.

@helene: ==

manifest... now i don't know if ill bother going

LOL. Good job hungy. Evidently your money was well spent at Manifest.

Seriously, what's the point of Manifest? Apart from, as Jitain puts it, to be the biggest asshole you can be? AFAIK it's just a mass gathering of anime fans and that's it. What's so special? If there was a political convention such as a mass model UN, there wouldn't be this much hype. Truly, all the masses want is bread and entertainment.

In fact, from my point of view, any social event is pretty lame unless you actually get something out of it that exceeds the value of what you put in. Go to Manifest, spend $20 or something, and what do you get? Two days of utter boredom with brief flashes of mildly amusing entertainment provided by people who you could see anywhere, anytime.

And what about Manifest itself? An gathering of people costing thousands of dollars for no real use other than to encourage fanatics to dress up and spend money on useless goods they will probably forget about in another week. What do they get out of it all? Nothing! What is the use of Manifest? No use at all! Better to use the time, energy and money on something worthwhile, something that will actually make a difference, rather than simply avoid the big issues by celebrating images that flash 20 times per second for hours on end.

And what are the big issues, you ask? Issues that concern the world. Russia's re-emergence as a semi-superpower. The current crisis in Iran. Enhanced greenhouse effect. Global energy shortage. The downhill slide of the American stockmarket. American dominance as the sole world superpower. China's current economic and political upheaval. All these issues are far more serious and affect far more people than anime. Anime cannot decide the rise and fall of nations, the fate of billions. To hell with this useless artform! To hell with all it's proponents!

You should make me a contributor again.

FROGGY said...

OJ, how come you don't post anything on your own very-red-blog-which-hurts-my-eyes ?

Anonymous said...

Manifest WAS fun though ;_; At least I had fun D:
And haha~ Maybe cause I didn't receive so much abuse pet ^_^

OJ said...

Viv, no-one is supposed to be able to access that blog. That's being held in preparation for...something special.

Anyway. In answer to my critics:

I don't want to go to Manifest! It's, as I said before, a stupid waste of time and money.

Medkid said...

sure.

Jitain said...

Man, that day was rad. And Olly? The point of manifest is trying to be retarded. Which is outrageously fun.

OJ said...

Kevin, you know me. I don't have a particular like for anime. I prefer to shoot things myself. Why should I watch some cartoon imitation of it? No point. Waste money.

Jitain, if the point of Manifest is to be retarded...you're a retard. And I guess it is pretty funny. I laugh at you pitiful fools for wasting your time, money and energy! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Jitain said...

Cloud is, under no circumstances, a waste of money
