Hey,

Thats kinda why I only watch anime when I'm alone, although my parents don't even know I watch anime (I have all my DVDs on my lower shelf but they haven't noticed because they're not at eye level :/ ).
all my dvd anime and none anime, are in my room on a shelf on my desk. no one touches them or they run the risk of getting a weird.pissed off smirk from me while i walk away ... (you thought it was going to be soemthign involving violence didnt you? :lol: )

i just avoid them. If i tried i could problaby get my dad to like some stuff ... but it would problaby take a long time to get the notion of cartoon porn out of his head. My mohter is more along the lines of a write off for this matter ... why? because my family is itailan ... were famous for being stubborn, close minded , ass mongers.

my sisters an asshle, and i just don't care, if she walks in on me watching anime, i don't bother turning it off ... i just try to ignore her existance. But my sister's worse, she tries to call it anime, but either the way she pronounces it, or jsut the fact that it's her voice makes me want to hit her. She calls it "Ana-me"

that would get quite a laugh out of me too ...

So I'm technicaly working when i'm at a show enjoying myself with my friends. Which is bad ass. So I'll always see them around.
Well i work shitty hours far away from my friends in shitty conditions, and no one ever bothers to call me, so i'm normaly alone. Lucky you ... man i want to go to another punk show ...

If you don't get along with them now or at least come to an understanding you'll regret it later. I know my kids sometimes hate it when i watch anime with them. but thats because they like diferent kinds than i do.
no, my problem is i just don't like people i have no choice but to be around. If i lived on my own, then i'd probalby like my family, but since i'm caged up at home with them all the time i try to just be ... ummm ... not there. Better for me, i don't end up having to put up with my sisters nonsensical bullshit, or my mothers obsessive compulsive complaining. i really can't complain about my dad though ...

no ... it gets bad ... the better a job i do avoideing conversation the better my position is. I'm not a speaker, i hate having to talk. Because i never talk i'm not that good at it and tend to just shut up and take whatever people toss at me, i suppose you can almost say i was trained to do that (not really by my parents though). Not a good habbit but better then studdering, stalling and embarrasing myself through a conversation to reach the same, or a worse end. And no, writing out what i say dosn't help ... my messy writing jsut frusterates me and who i'm trying to communicate to.

enough bitching from me ... i need sleep, now! u_u

yea, jsut for the records ... i pronounce it "Ana-may", i'm not sure which way is correct, but i still hate how she says it, wether it's just her voice or it's the word she uses ... fucking annoying brat

Go see Fall Out Boy. They're on tour now, and if they've already passed your city, they'll be back really soon. They're going straight back on tour as soon as they're done with this one.

I actually went and hung out with them last night, here's a pic of all of us together:

why does everyone keep saying that?

is it the tatoos?

oh well, yeah, I'm holding the sign. You can't read it since I shrunk it down, but it's for my GF. It says, "Fall Out Boy missed you, Happy Birthday" and they signed it for her.

I'm the only douche bag that managed to close his eyes when the lfash went off.

I know :?

No one here seems to think I'd have a tatoo tho, everyone always looks for the most average person.

I've tried once or twice with my dad. 8man after which he liked, partly cause he likes detective stories as well. And Jin-Roh, which I don't think he paid any attention to. But then again, he has no say over what I can watch in the first place.

Oh and I think Blood. But my dad is like me, if he isn't interested enough in the first place, he doesn't care.
