'I've been spending a lot of time around goats recently because I'm Jewish.' by Kara

I was trying desperately to think of something to rant about. Forgot it's Friday. Well, there you are, then.

Do you own any legitimate anime DVDs within your region?

First: Some -- 39%
Second: Tons -- 26%
Third: I'm in Japan, so it's a non-issue. / Anything about inability to access, find, or afford them. Don't try slipping them into the comments, you know who you are. -- 2%

Uncreativity Penalty: Eh, not this week. How about Dick-Swinging Penalty? -20 to anyone who tried to brag about just how many they own. Doesn't matter if you're telling the truth or not.

Points

* 'Although I'll probably get negative points for this, I could point out there are some locations on the internet that have dubbed anime which besides the anime my older brother let me watch is pretty much the only anime that I've managed to see, more or less. I don't actually own any anime.': You don't get negative points for watching dubbed anime. If it's all you've had the opportunity to watch, how can anyone hold that against you? No negative points, but no positive points, either.

* 'L- legitimate? The father's.. um... the father's.. he's..': +20 to buy a paternity test with. Though my money is on Carl Macek.

* 'No imports here, except for the 21 R2 Laurel and Hardy DVDs and the JP CD of the Baja Marimba Band.': Man, that's just cool. +10

* 'For the whiners, I recently bought stuff from Amazon & RightStuf for ridiculously low prices ($1/20 min) w/shipping ': Damn straight. +25. I also recommend DeepDiscount.com. Which is often a dangerous place to be.

* 'several, but I get at Yard Sales and used stuff. I need to hit Big Lots for those $3 Ippo DVD's sometime.': Big Lots is win for cheap anime. I got some L/R and Someday's Dreamers there out of curiosity. See above comic in reference to those. Also, +10.

Correct Answer: 'I buy DVDs when the anime is available. The only downloads I keep is stuff I'm pretty sure will never be licensed. (But we can all tell Utena is based on Rose of Versailles)' -- This answer is a double-correct.

I need breakfast. If you have been, gratz!!!
