Great Minds Like a Think

Really, English? Do you have to start branching into different grammatical rulesets word definitions? This is like British English insisting that the proper sentence is "IBM are running strong," and American English insisting "IBM running strong." As hilarious as I find it that the United States therefore treats corporations as individuals even while talking about them, the difference is frustrating.Or like our two definitions for "biscuit" and "chips". Or like "pram" vs. "stroller". Enough already. Stop diverging into two separate languages! Please?

...See my response to the ad was that I thought it was meant to be "great minds think alike" but somehow terribly butchered, be it intentional or purely accidental.

Both cases would be sad.

And this one ad just won't leave me alone. It's driving me nuts.

On another note, it's really not surprising that British English and American English are slightly different. Same goes for Spanish Spanish and Mexican Spanish. They're different areas of the world that'll develop different slang and pronunciations. *shrugs* I don't see what the big deal is, really. I've learned most of the differences just from watching Doctor Who, I'd say. Never really saw an issue with it.

You mean 5-6 more generations, I hope?

Because they've already made it to six.

Erk: Stupid lack of time... I'm trying to get a post out ASAP, but it might not actually come until tomorrow. I'm sorry D:Oh, something I just noticed: Kaga, Rose is already in the next room (the ktichen).

I know. GM was pretty much just talking to Leon at that point.

My computer broke

Well.

It's an opportunity to get a shiny new one, I suppose.

...Assuming you have the money for one.

So I'm watching Trigun

(Again, it's been awhile. .-.)One thing I didn't know before this thread was that Gungrave and Trigun were made by the same people.

Yeah, I only discovered that recently. So now I really have to read Gungrave, especially if it has lots of between-the-lines Trigun references like I know Bakuman does with Death Note, since those two were written by the same people.

Yeah, like when one of Knive's henchman kill [REDACTED] making what'sherface (It's been awhile) Sad and trigger-happy.

Well yeah, but that happens in episode 23. (Also, she never really got trigger-happy... just cried a lot.)

Regardless, the tone of things gets plenty dark as early in as episode 12. 24 I'd say is the darkest episode in the series, but at least by then you've had a chance to get used to the darker Trigun.

There's an episode were shit actually gets serious, it's actually the anime version of where the manga started. Pretty awesome and Vash kicks some serious ass.

Well that depends on which manga.

If you're talking about the original manga series, then that would actually be episode 5, I believe. Things get dark at the anime equivalent of the Trigun Maximum manga series, which is episode 12.

But yeah, that is what I was trying to get to. The first half of the anime is mostly jokes with some serious moments - the second half of the series is the exact opposite, with mostly comparatively really dark shit with only a few scattered moments of humor.
