That would mean that My Little Pony is also anime, it all makes sense, that's why there are all these brony fags.

Anime is just the Japanese word for cartoons, anyway.

I must disagree to some point that not all cartoons are anime , and vice versa. I don't think that anime have to come from japan, but it is mainly the drawing style of the animation that depends if it is an anime or a cartoon. I don't think anyone will say that for example the powerpuff girls or scooby doo are animes, but people will say that they are cartoons. on the otherside animes are mainly made in Japan, and cartoons in the rest of the world. I don't know any animes that were produced by other countries than Japan actually. but avatar does have some attributes that you can find back in anime.

I'm not quite sure you read what I said. I said "anime" is the Japanese word for "cartoon". And it is.
Of course I wouldn't call Scooby Doo an anime. It wasn't made in Japan. I'd call it a... cartoon. If you aren't speaking in Japanese or don't happen to be in Japan, would you call a Japanese cat a "neko"? It's pretty obvious it's a cat. Just like it's obvious an "anime" is just a cartoon. Most of the time, only weeaboos think they're different.

For example, if I saw a pair of Japanese balls, I wouldn't say, "Oh, those are some nice tamakin you've got there." and then see a pair of Western balls and say, "Oh, those are some nice balls." They're the same damn thing. Balls.

Even my Japanese friends call "anime", "cartoons". There really is no difference outside of where the cartoon was made and the language. Just like in the example above, the only differences are the race and person the balls belong to.

And it's "anime" not "animes" ;)


Alas, to each their own. If you'd like to think they're different, I'm not going to stop you :P

okay then...... so what cup size are you PG?

Sorry my boobs belong to Suprgamr, so I can't answer that question.


Look around and you might be surprised how many series do nameplay like this.

Hell, half of DBZ is either food or musical instruments.

Or underclothes.

PG, what have you learned about mentioning anything to do with underwear around me?

First you trained me to not freak out at the mention of boobs, now you gotta' do it with underwear...

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
