Maybe it's a penis-related thing. Actually I think I read somewhere (probably nonsense) that it's a prison thing, whereby having your trousers worn low means that you're "available" to the other inmates. Probably not true, but I really hope it is.

I think it's a myth, we never needed reasons for stupid trends to catch on, did we?

It's looks like the fucking Millennium Puzzle!

Almost a waste of time for you to even read this thread then? Not to mention commenting in it as well

Rustling jimmies is never a waste of my time.

Speaking out of experience? Why so cryptic?

I try to forget those days....but they haunt me everyday

Putting my vest here after making a couple of changes. Overall satisfied with all black/white (and a bit of red), also the symmetry is good enough ! I'm making a new one now, just dyed the thing all black

Nice arrangement

I have a very special T-shirt, that I only wear for the rare gigs I go to. It's rare because it's been discontinued. And it's glorious. I'm sure y'all gon be jelly.



EDIT: for the uncultured swine, it's a reference to Sussudio, a cheesy Phil Collins song (also that is an unnecessary repetition of the word cheesy). But most importantly, it refers that scene in American Psycho, see my avatar.

^Not jealous. American Psycho was an awful movie, and I keep reading it as "Sudowoodo" for some reason.

I read it as 'Susanoo' from Naruto which is not something I like to admit in public.

But come on, 'Murrican Psycho was pretty good.

Too late, I now know.

But Lit kinda likes to bash what I like, since I went full troll on LoTR. We both know it was a good movie. Not the greatest ever, but it's one of the most entertaining movies to re-watch every couple of years.

I suspect the "book was better" trope may be played at some point. Ball's in Lit.'s court... FIGHT!

Haha. No I won't give you the satisfaction. Frustrated?

Oh, you're so seal-y.

Never read the book, actually. Despised the movie enough that it deterred me from doing so. I've read Lunar Park, though, which I believe is by the same author, so that may be the case. I don't know, and I don't intend on finding out.

Also, kinda surprised Joe actually made a Naruto reference.

It's a guilty pleasure. The non-filler episodes are very watchable.

Jesus, you've definitely picked up some ninja tricks from watching, that's for sure. I didn't even finish editing my post.

I used to be a big fan myself, but once Toonami was canceled and the dubbed episodes stopped airing in the US, I lost interest. I've been meaning to watch Shippuden.

...dubbed? You Sir are an awful human. I've only ever seen about 15 seconds of a dubbed episode but Naruto himself sounded awful. I think Ghost in the Shell and some Miyazaki stuff is the only anime I can handle dubbed. Has to be subbed. Just a nicer experience.

I cannot stand anything subbed. They all sound the same, and the same is incredibly sub-par in itself. No passion in the VA and the translations are always really weird & differ depending on who translate them. While I am incredibly familiar with subtitles (being hard-of-hearing and making absolutely sure something has captions before I watch it), it's a pain to have to have to decide whether or not to focus on the show or the subtitles, or pause and watch something again. At least with the dubbed versions you can hear what they are saying rather than having to read it, which is what I like so I can watch the action not the words at the bottom. It's why I'm super annoyed that the freaking One Piece dub is taking its sweet, fat time coming out. I'd rather wait than watch the sub, but there's simply no love for dub in the business.

Well as for fan subs I generally just try to stick with one person. I don't think it necessarily means that dubs are going to be great either though. Translations are never going to be identical from person to person because a lot of it is interpretive, but I usually find things pretty consistent.

As for the whole what to watch thing I guess I don't really think about it. My brain seems to fill in for anything I may miss and I seem to get both word and image into my brain just fine. I generally prefer things with subs anyway, even if I can understand the language.

Not to mention professional dubs are often dumbed down for poor, sensistive Western children's ears (Cardcaptor Sakura for example).

I tried doing that, but it really takes away from the experience. I watch these shows because I love the action and the art (especially with how good anime looks these days, i.e. Kill La Kill and Attack On Titan), slightly more so than the writing, at least. Maybe I'm just slower to process these things.

Maybe it's like how some people can't process 3D, some people can't follow both things at once.

I can't be on the phone and have someone next to me talk to me. If that happens I don't know what either person is saying.

Not sure how relevant that is, but yeah.

Perhaps.

Boy howdy, did we derail this thread.

Finally got my backpatch. Think it turned out quite good!

Looks promissing.

You should get a big Logo all over the top section, above the Pallbearer patch, a cut-out black and white/yellow version to combine with the coloured padron you already have.

I like that type of unwashed denim. Patched vests are getting better nowadays as more bands get better logos. If some day I get really bored but incredibly motivated, I'd love to make helvetica versions of the logos of my favourite bands, get them printed on patches, and build the ultimate hipster patched vest.
