I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

I thought we were being internet tough guys. :wacko:

You need to be more musical.

Well this place is dead. :wacko:

It's alive in places.

See!

*pokes*

It's moving!

I'm pretty sure that's the vibrations from you poking it. With a sledgehammer. At terminal velocity.

*fart*

Just got done watching all of Shinkai Makoto's original works. Pretty good, although he seems to really love to

Spoiler warning:

Go with the sad/depressing ending

I'm the one guy not much impressed by Shinkai. I like depressing stuff, but he tends to focus on the theme of separation without bothering to build a foundation first. It just doesn't have as much impact as if the relationship was more firmly established before tearing it apart.

The one exception is Kotonoha no Niwa, which a friend on MAL pointed out is the reverse of typical Shinkai (hence me liking it), because it spent the entire time actually building a connection between the characters rather than just severing a connection that is left entirely to our imagination.

Kotonoha no Niwa was my favorite, and probably the first, but the others weren't exactly bad. The Children who Look for Forgotten Voices(probably wrong) was also rather interesting/good. I mean, some of his earlier work was rather meh, but it was his first few, so I still think they were pretty good. But TCLF and KnN would take the cake for me. 5 centemeters per second was just depressing.

I'd forgotten Hoshi wo Ou Kodomo (Children Who Chase After Stars was the original Japanese title) was Shinkai. I did like that one, but my interest flagged in the last quarter or so. It also had a very Ghibli feel to it (I just googled, and it seems it isn't actually Ghibli, as I thought), and I have a strong antinomy toward Ghibli for basically being a Japanese Disney.

I'm also the one person who felt NOTHING while watching Byousoku 5 Centimeter. I've heard it called 5 depressions per second, but I simply wasn't moved by it. I didn't feel divested enough in the characters' relations to give a damn how they developed.
Granted, I've seen the ENTJ personality profile paraphrased as "emotionally stunted narcissist" :lol and a friend on MAL is on a quest to find an anime that will "melt the armor around my heart". . .so yeah. Just not really my thing.
