Ring, ring, ring banana phone.

They grow in bunches. Hahaha. I bet that song is now stuck in your head. Sucker.

To make up for putting that hideous song in your head let me introduce you to the new banana song. It's pretty epic. It also happens to be a trailer for Despicable Me 2. Which is highly anticipated in the Mishiverse.

If you want to "know" what it's saying, the lyrics can be found here. And if anyone knows what the English version of the lyrics I would really appreciate you putting me in the know.

Also. For those few people (mom) who don't know the Banana Phone song.

Hope that made your Friday extra special.

Nothing to see here

Nothing interesting has happened in the last 24 hours. My life has been unbelievably boring (except my car is dead. Dead as in doesn't even make awkward noising when trying to start it). So nothing has happened. I slept, ate and slept some more. It was pretty grand. All very exciting. I am sure I could write an entire novel based on my life.

It would be the shortest story ever.

A friend suggest I start a pinterest page... I wasn't really sure what it was to begin with. The concept is interesting, pinning interesting pictures all in one place is a rather ingenious idea. The only problem is that my internet experience lately is focused on about ten different sites.

1. Blogger
2. gmail (since if I don't check it frequently it gets way bogged down)
3. facebook
4. xkcd
5. fy art student owl
6. Dr. Cat
7. Amazon
...
8. Lolz cats
9. Other pages from icanhascheezburger.com
...

There isn't a ten. Apparently I don't even go to ten different sites.

Oh. I guess ten would be google+ but I basically never get on. So not sure that should really count.

Anyway. I am having issues withe whole pinterest thing because of that. I pretty much just bum at home and read or watch tv. Which I could list all the shows I think are worth watching but that takes some serious effort. I am a big fan of things that require nill in the effort department.

Which is why I have this loverly comic from xkcd, just for you. Because everyone knows that a blog isn't a blog unless it has awesome followers. And since you are reading my blog that automatically makes you awesome, at least averagely awesome, which is good enough for me.

I really want to do this sometime. If only I had friends who would factor time.

My minor obsession with Sailor Moon

A couple of weeks ago I finished reading "Codename: Sailor V" which is a prequel to "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon".

I am not entirely sure when they added that first part, maybe it's always been there...

Isn't she adorable? There is a funny story behind the red bow.
Ask me about it sometime.

Anyway. I finished reading the entire series (all two books of it) and now I really want to watch Sailor Moon. The only problem is I can't find it anywhere. Not entirely true, some people are selling it on Amazon for an astronomical prize (think around three figures, so not cool).

I am not willing to pay a couple hundred bucks for one season. That is ridiculous.

But I really, really want to watch it again. It was on of my favorite childhood shows. The only thing I really remember is having a huge crush on Tuxedo Mask. Which, really, horrible name. It's really more of a descriptive statement than name.

"I wear a tuxedo and a mask, there fore you must call me Tuxedo Mask!"

I throw roses around, be impressed!

Not impressive. The top hat is pretty awesome though... I secretly have a top hat fetish (but only when I remember certain fictional characters). I think I got it from Alice in Wonderland's Mad Hatter.

So I really do want to watch the show again, mostly because I heard that they massacred the original show when translating it. Not a surprise, seeing as how there wasn't really a large adult audience for anime in the States at that point. There totally could have been, but the marketers botched it royally.

I have a moon, be jealous!

A friend in high school gave me the low down on how the story ended. For some reason I just kind of assumed that she beat the bad guys and then went back to her normal life... which is freakishly far from the truth and absolutely what happened. Lets just say that she went back to her original life, but not what she had been doing at the beginning of the series. I mostly thought that because I only ever saw the first season. Not that I remember how that ends either.


I am such a failure as a fan. I will obsessively watch a show, sometimes for several years, and then out of the blue I will just stop. Not that the story line doesn't intrigue me anymore, it's just that I know I can watch it later and there is no hurry to watch it right now. Basically I am every marketers nightmare. A fan who supports the show but doesn't go batshit crazy twifan girl about it. *shudder* just mentioning those fan girls makes me gag a little in the back of my throat.

So... I seem to have completely lost track of where I wanted to go with this post ... fail. Here is another pretty picture from Sailor Moon. Aren't they just the cutest? (please ignore the awkward shoulder pads, nobody told him the eighties are gone for good).

We rule the universe and if you don't do what we say we will send annoying otaku's to harass you.
You have been warned!

Have a great Christmas weekend!

Best online comics

Here are some of my favorite online comics.

The first is Anime News Nina. It's all about a news elf who works as an announcer for a TV show. Nina is cute and original.

Anime News Nina

Second is "The Oatmeal"

Check it out here.


One of my favorite online comics is Dr. Cat. Although recently the artist has not been updating regularly, but I am sure there is a very good reason.

Dr. Cat!

F*** Yeah Art Student Owl is always one for a laugh. I love that site. It's almost as fun to read as "Clients From Hell".

FYASO

And that is the rather small list of my favorite online comics... I really thought that would be longer. Hmmm. I have not been spending as much time online as previously.

Oh. And there is the always famous Lolz cats.

Dive Bomber Mouse ... takes over the world

I was at work minding my own business, when all of a sudden my mouse jumps across the screen and starts tweaking out. I was a little surprised but I figured it would finish tweaking in a few seconds and then not do it again, ever. Once it had decided to be a cooperative piece of electronic ingenious technology I went on my merry way assuming everything was just peachy now. And we all know what assumptions do... So I now have a mouse that works approximately half of the time I want it to. The other half it chills in a corner of the screen refusing to move. It makes me want to go back to the good ol' days of non-optical mouses... Is it mice or mouses?

I am going with mouses because it should make people realize that I am talking about computer mice and not Pinky and the Brain. Although I love Pinky and the Brain, best kids show ever! EVER! Nothing they have on TV now even comes close to the awesome shows of when I was a kid.

Except for maybe Avatar: the Last Airbender. That is a pretty rockin' show. Although it the movie seems to be dubious, I have only heard bad reviews ... really bad reviews. It makes me want to cry. I spent hours looking forward to this movie and all I hear is that it is terrible. *sigh* it is enough to drive someone into a caffeine drinking frenzy.

Avatar: the Last Airbender is the real avatar. The people who decided to put out "Avatar" (Sarcasm Quotes) the same year as The Last Airbender are poo heads. This movie has been showing previews before "Avatar" did, and they just jump up and are all like "I want to make a film using a plot that is waaaaaaay over done, then name it after a movie that is going to come out a few months after I do, on top of all the other stupid stuff I am also going to put subtitles in an "original" font that looks just like papyrus... I am such an awesome movie, Watch me watch me!

"Plus I started a 3D crazy so anyone who wears glasses is going to have a fun time watching me! Oh yeah, btw I am going to push a huge agenda 'cuz that sounds fun! Also the only real reason to watch me is for the special effects, so you might as well watch a documentary on how the effects were made 'cuz it would give the same feel."

And that is why I refuse to watch "avatar" it is a sham that should have put a good plot before the special effects. A movie isn't worth watching unless it has a good plot, good acting and good effects. So "avatar" is out.
