                                            Interesting Search Words #2

      Here're a buncha search words from last week that led folks to this humble blog. Enjoy.

1.   yomi afterlife - No! She can't be ..... dead. Not my favorite "uptight" anime character! I'll bet that Tomo did her in. That or an eating disorder. Seems death is a "regular" with the Azumanga Daioh kids.

      Here's a link to the story of Chiyo-chans' demise.

2.   hentai game you are a male warrior & have female followers - So ..... are you fighting ..... or doing something else?

3.   needless hentai - Yes ..... it certainly is. (I take it this refers to the Needless anime.)

4.   charlie brown lucy little known facts - Get the low down on comicdoms' most controversial couple

5.   jiggly tush knock off pokemon - I wish he would. We can only hope. (Jiggly Tush was a satirical   
Pokemon character knock off from Cracked Magazine. Complete with trading cards! The place I worked at the time dealt heavily in Pokemon merchandise. I had thoughts of slipping some of the Cracked ones in the packs. Shoulda' done it.)

6.   boy eaten by vulture - A lot of "strange" leads to The Vulture article.

7.   evangelion head against wall gif - Evangelion has a lot of folks bangin' their heads against the wall.

8.   azumanga daioh in real life - I think he was looking for this:

Live action Azumanga Daioh roving band of hooligans. L-R Koyomi "Yomi"
Mizuhara, Ayumu "Osaka" Kasuga, Kaorin, Chiyo-chan Mihama, Sakaki,
Kagura, & Tomo Takino.

9.   dan green hentai - Who is Dan Green & do you really want to seem him in porn? Funny thing, my Dad actually had a friend by that name.

10.  suicidal teen anime boys - Aren't they all?

11.  dead or alive hentai - Depends on how much you're into it I guess.

12.  hentai murder - Is it porn? A mystery? Holmes & Watson investigate. A storm rages outside. The bridge is out. The phone is dead. And the killer is .....

      "Yeah. N' I'da gotten away with it too if it warn't fer them there dang kids n' that snoopy dawg a' theirs!"

      Has anyone seen Daphne & Fred?

1984: Come & Not Gone

                                                1984: Come & Not Gone

                                                                     by

                                                                        Jay Agan

     A few years back I was fired from my cashiering job at a midwest based wannabe Wal-Mart (Not Wal-Mart itself. I actually shop there.). I made the "mistake" of saying politically incorrect things  to a couple of  what I suspect to be "secret shoppers". You know, spies the company hires to measure employee performance. The male part of the couple enthusiastically engaged me in the conversation leading to my dismissal.

     During my time of unemployment, I finally got down to reading Eric Blair/George Orwells' 1984. A darn good read it is too. Especially the parts about how the STATE uses spies, amateur or otherwise. Through observation in various places of employment, I've come to the conclusion that there is little difference between socialism & capitalism (Not free enterprise. I make a distinction. A subject for another article in two or three weeks. Socialism is a business pretending to be a government. Capitalism is a government pretending to be a business.).

     Recently I've been availing myself of Amazons' used movie options & have saved myself some dough in aquiring flicks. A recent purchase was the 1956 version of  1984 with Edmond O'Brien as Winston Smith.

     The film itself is every bit as good as the book. Aside from a few minor changes & a different though just as creepy ending, it is quite faithful to the story.

     Winston Smith (O'Brien) is not happy with the way things are in Oceania. Though a trusted/priviledged member of the "Outer Party", he resents the rigidity of the oppressive society he's in & the constant surveillance. He buys an unused diary to record his thoughts. He finds he's being pursued by a kindred spirit, Julia (Jan Sterling) & takes up a relationship with her (Love of anyone/thing other than the STATE & "Big Brother" is forbidden.). All the while the lovers are being watched, manipulated, then railroaded into arrest, incarceration, & "reeducation". As it's a question of not if but when one cracks, the two end up "betraying" one another. The film ends with a mind altered Winston worshipping "Big Brother" with unbridled enthusiasm.

Cover art for the DVDR I bought through Amazon.

     I bought this disc under the impression I was getting a superior product. It isn't. It turns out to be a DVDR copy from a VHS tape (Tracking "marks" can be seen at the bottom of the screen in some places.).The print the film was originally taped from is evidently worn somewhat. The Amazon blurb said "digitally remastered" & no doubt it is as every scratch, burn, whistle, hiss, snap, crackle, & poop is there in crystal clarity.

     There's no menu. Pop the disc in & it plays immediately. The "old time radio show" mentioned on the case cover is nowhere to be found. The case cover itself has no company name or logo so I have no idea who puts this out.

     As I couldn't find this film under other labels & it being still quite watchable, I decided to keep it. As I paid only a few bucks for it, "resentment" is minimal.

     Oh yes. It's been 1984 a long time now.

Search Words of Interest # 1

                                            Interesting Search Words #1
     

      Hopefully this will be at least a bi-weekly "column". It will consist of the more interesting search words net surfers have used leading them to this blog. Here's a few from last week.

1. how does Lucys' dress look in Charlie Brown - I assume the searcher meant "look on" Charlie Brown. Judging by Charles Shulzs' "simple" art style, I imagine Charlie would look pretty much like Lucy but without the hair. I also imagine this particular net surfer to be a little on the "strange" side.

2. azumanga daioh osaka shocked - Fans of Azumanga Daioh are pretty much aware that the Osaka character looks rather "shocked" just about all the time.

"What 't heck you starin' at!?" Ayumu "Osaka" Kasuga

3. osaka drag show - I assume this to be another Azumanga search. Or maybe it's in reference to an Initial-D spinoff? Or ..... an all male revue in southern Japan?

4. sandy fantasy porn actress - I have no idea how this could have led someone to this blog. Well I do mention hentai on this blog but not in favorable terms.

That's it for now. There'll probably be some more next week.

Hey Haruhi Suzumiya Fans! Check These Out!



Suddenly ..... Haruhis! Lots of 'em!
Oh for the love of .....! As if one wasn't enough!



                                Hey Haruhi Suzumiya Fans! Check These Out!

      Was stooging around YouTube when I stumbled across THIS. This "parody sub" uses the ENOZ "concert" scene from episode 12, "Live Alive" from The Melancholy of  Haruhi Suzumiya. It took me awhile to figure out what was going on, & when I did, I actually hurt my guts I was laughing so hard! The "matching" of Japanese "word sounds" to actual English words came out absolutely hilarious! Nonsensical phrases having nothing at all to do with one another ........... crazy! I wonder if there are other "parody subs" out there. CORN SALAD!

      Try The Freakingness of Haruhi Suzumiya 1 here. "Old timers" will recognize the "voice" & get a kick out of the segment at about 3:44. It never occured to me that would be the perfect laugh for Tsuruya.

      The Freakingness of Haruhi Sumiya 2 here, is also a hoot 'n a half.

      Warning: Strong language in some segments. Have the kiddies leave the room.

      Yes. Itsuke still likes trains.

Now How Does That Song Go?

Say it LOUD! I'm Literate & PROUD!



                                          Now How Does That Song Go?

                                                                by

                                                                    Jay Agan

      Back in the ancient age of analog, I spent four wonderful (NOT!) years in New Jersey getting an ejmakashun & work experience. Finding pickings a might slim after moving back to Ohio, I found some work through temp agencies.

      As my "chosen field" was office related, I was sent out a few times to, get this, straighten out files. As in alphabetical order. Seems a lot of folks don't know their ABCs.

      To this day I'm still taken aback over the general ignorance/stupidity of people. I have recently viewed an episode of Repo Games, wherein knuckle draggers get a chance not to have their cars towed by answering a few trivia questions. While the "contestants" struggled with the answers, I got most of them right almost instantly (Those cars are rightfully mine!). What I had seen has not given me hope for humanity.

Another kind of ABC.

     
      Back to the alphabet (alpha-beta). How SO many members of the general public can have so much difficulty getting files in order is WAY beyond me. If you can count, "sing that song" & think at least semi-logically, you shouldn't have much trouble getting files sorted. Maybe that "semi-logical" part has them all confused. While chrysanthemum falls somewhere between A & Z, it shouldn't be all that much harder to figure that right comes between reel & ring.

      A notable exception to alphabetising is the word sympathy. While it is rarely found in the real world it can be readily found in the dictionary. Between s-word & suicide!

      Now how does that song go? Oh yeah .....

      ABCDEFG
      How I wonder what you are
      QRSTUV
      Like a diamond in the sky .....

      Uh ..... wait a sec ..... OK, now I gotz it .....

      Twinkle, twinkle, little star
      HIJKLMNOP
      Up above the world so high
      WXYZ
      Now I know my ..... huh?

      Darn! Maybe I'm gettin' old .....

MEMORANDUM FOR THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE

Sir;

As per our recent conversation on this matter, you are hereby authorised to proceed with all due speed & caution upon this undertaking. Hereafter this matter shall be referred to only as Operation Majestic Thirteen. The mission of NERV e-mail intercepts from Tokyo 3 shall continue to be executed out of  the monitoring facilities at Ft. Huachuca, Arizona.

It continues to be my feeling that any future considerations relative to the ultimate disposition of this situation should soley rest with the office of the President following appropriate discussions with yourself, related top rank technical personnel, & the director of INSCOM.

signed,

President ------ - -----

Attached is text of  recent intercepted e-mail showing all may not be right at Tokyo 3, NERV main facility:


Dear (?) Dad,

I hate you. I hate you a lot. I hate you so much that ..... I REALLY just hate you.

First Mom croaks on me (Or so you say. I'll bet you snuffed her!). Then you send me away to live with one of my creepy teachers.

Now that you hauled me back, I'm getting the krap beat out of me every other week by giant weirdos from outer space. On alternate weeks I'm getting the krap beat out of me by a redheaded Hitler madchen who hates me more than I do you (I swear, I'm gonna strangle that kid!). To top it off I'm being babysat by an alcoholic stone fox I can't lay a hand on!

And what's up with that KREEEEEPY Ayanami chick? Geez! She looks a lot like Mom! Brrrrrrrrr!

Come to think of it, so does that Kaworu guy!

And you tell me to stop whining?! No way! I got every right to whine & then some!

Nobody likes me!
Everybody hates me!
I'm going out back & eat worms!

Your loving son (NOT!),

Shinji
