Yeah, but this is a massive fail, because it's not over 9,000, which makes it worse (though I never thought that possible) Also is DBZ worse than Brony?

Nah, DBZ is tons better than bronies and I was never a big fan of DBZ to begin with.

Dean shouldn't have mentioned you were there until I arrived at the lounge.

I would have preferred it if that were the case, but not to worry.

I'll be somewhat aware when I'm at an England meet when you're not there.

If you can afford it, go right ahead. As for me, I should at least see if I can have a desktop in this house. Maybe some furniture arrangements could be done.

Like I said, a few months of research first.

Don't be lazy now. :P

I even mentioned it this time last year but let's see who will dig it up.

Can't be arsed.

Neither can I but I'll keep the song idea in my heart.

Put it this way, series 8 should have 21 episodes, however the series 8 DVD has only 13 episodes.

Oh yeah, I see now. To put the remaining episodes elsewhere isn't so good. I don't blame Futurama releasing the 13 episodes for the first half of season 5/6 since all 13 were at least released in the same year. Makes sense to me.

Unless we get more blackouts or some sites are down at the time. Metal-Archives is a huge offender for downtimes.

I don't use MA that much. The colour scheme is a bit... offending to my eyes.

I never even used that feature from Opera.

Me neither, but it was nice to have it for the blackout, lol.

I wonder if shit is going to get worse now everyone is back to talking about ACTA.

Well, I certainly don't hope it will get worse.

But not doing things for the heck of it?

Like what?

Listening to Helloween or watching some horror movies. Maybe playing some Resident Evil or Silent Hill. I would mention Left 4 Dead but the horror value is so pussy-like it's insulting to even call it survival horror. Fun game, though.

But, we can do that on any given day. We don't need Halloween for that. :P

TAKE THAT, JOEY!

I actually concur.

I was hoping you do.

Some CDs I saw in Poland had very bad cover scans. Everything was blurry and stuff. Makes you wonder who buys that shit.

So Poland and Latvia are on the blacklist. I remember seeing a Polish metal distro that had some ultra rare albums but something didn't seem right to be selling Slough Feg's s/t album where you can't even see it anywhere else due to its extreme rarity.

Yeah, most likely it was just a copy.

I just hope what I've been buying from Greek sellers are all legit.

Hm, never been to Greek, so I don't know anything about that.

They seem to get a lot of obscure stuff over there and by that, I mean when I find a rare album, the seller is likely to be from there. Well, that or Italy.

Yeah, so much padding. Other anime shows are an offender for stretching out sequences needlessly but DBZ really takes the cake. I think that series alone had like 400 episodes. Now there's an ongoing project out there that shortens the show to only the key points.

I do know this, though:

Some needles are worse than others. The worst of all are the ones that stay parallel to the skin (or close to parallel) rather than going in at a right angle (or close to it).

Ughhhhhh....
