Hey everyone,

I haven't been able to find much buzz about Greenzap yet but they claim to be the next form of electronic payment coming to the internet. They claim that everyone who pre-registers will be given a free $25 and every person that responds to your referral will get an additional $5.

They don't ask for anything confidential so I'm not too worried about submitting the information they ask for.

If you've got a few minutes and don't mind the potential of me getting $5 from referring you then click on http://www.greenzap.com/szilvagyi and fill out the form. The best that can happen is that you get some electronic money to spend. The worst that can happen is yet another name data base gets your name and mailing address.

Ok here is something that will really blow your guys minds, are you ready? Heres teh deal

I have just been told awhile ago by a girl that she has a crush on me :eek: . As if that

isn't amazing enough, it was through my Hammerdancing as well . I don't know who

said it, (I think it was either Vicious or R00ster that claimed I couldn't get a girl through

Hammerdancing.) Boy am I glad whoever said that is wrong. Anyway my question is

what do I do now? If any of you guys or girls have advice please give it as I am in

entirely new territory here thanks.

I yoinked this from elsewhere on the web. Too many points in here remind me of previous (and some current) debates that we've had here.

For the record; NO, this does not mean you can start flaming here in the General Babble thread. If you want to flame you still have to do it in the Flame Forum.

1. Tell your opponent that the argument is over, because it's degenerated into pointlessness.... doing so at the end of your post giving you the lengthy last word in it.

2. Predict the imminent death of the Internet.

3. Call your opponent a Nazi.

4. Change the subject by pointing out all of your opponent's grammar and spelling mistakes.

5. Post some horribly vicious and insulting note about your opponent.... several minutes later, post a profuse apology, claiming that you'd intended to send the message privately to a friend.

6. a: Refer frequently to pretend hordes of lurking supporters, who have mailed you privately to express their agreement and gratitude.... but aren't willing to come out publicly and say anything. (See also here.)

6b: Accuse your opponent of trying to intimidate your hordes of supporters.... add indignantly that you "will not be silenced".

7. Attempt to impress/silence your opponent by discussing your professional credentials and experience related to the topic at hand, which clearly make your opinions better and more correct than anyone else's.... be vague about details if your credentials and experience aren't actually all that impressive. (Also known as "dueling resumes".)

8. Accuse your opponent of being overly sensitive, or suggest in a patronizing tone that they "must be having a bad day".

9. Claim that an insult or other rudeness was "just a joke", and suggest that your opponent has no sense of humor.

10. Claim that *everything* is a matter of opinion, that there are no such things as facts or truth.

11. a: Claim that facts are absolute.... that there's never any such thing as dispute or disagreement about a fact.

11b: Assume that everything you learned in college, no matter how many years ago nor how much a field has advanced in the meantime, is completely unchanged.

12. Redefine words to mean whatever you want them to mean. (Also known as the "Humpty Dumpty" defense.)

13. Refuse to look something up, if challenged to do so.... no need, surely your memory is perfect.

14. Ask your opponent to supply lengthy and detailed references for their every statement.

15. Claim that if something works for you/your spouse/your kid/your parent/your best friend/your boss/your hairdresser's first cousin's dog's veterinarian, it will always work for everyone.... and if it doesn't, it's because they're not doing it right.

Happy 26th Birthday, my friend!
Don't feel bad about getting so old, Schultz will be 26 in June!!

Just reading up on Anime news Network and they announced that a new Hellsing OVA is on the way. It is made by Geneon and the Episode length will be 35 Mins. Although the Number of Episodes is still unknown. It is also unknown if the original English cast will be back yet also. Geneon have said they intend to try and stick to the manga than to the previous TV series. Can't wait for this one.

Hi I am pythoness come from Hong Kong. Nice to meet you.

I want to ask what is the English of 同人誌????
It is a Japanese term which mean a book contain a lot of FanArt or Fanfiction.In Hong Kong, we simply use the Japanese term.

Also, did America or other Europe countries have Comic Party???That is a programme of selling FanArt and having cosplay.I would like to know how often do those party hold and where do they hold as I may leave Hong Kong soon for studying and I like to join the Comic parties there.

I am planning to publish a polyglot 同人誌 (a Chinese version and an English version, if I finished my Japanese course I may even publish a Japnese version).Therefore I need to know some special terms on Anime and manga in English. Hope you can help me.

Thank you.
