    Maus is one of those Comics that will stick to you for the rest of your life. It really is a must read for any fan of comicbooks.

    Not true at all. Most manga go well beyond their anime counterparts.

    12 episodes are wall faster to get through than 12 volumes. I doubt most can read and entire volume in 20 mins compared to watching a 20min episode.

    then that reaction was pointless... but.
    at least it was 2008 and not 2006 when everyone was all overenthusiastic about it's release.

    I really should change the subject, who wants to talk about Japanese people?

    I would say even if comic books aren't quite your thing. It never was my thing and it still isn't. It is one of those works that transcends that cartoony barrier that some people are afraid to cross.

    Speaking of Maus, it will make my night when I catch the one lurking around in my room -_-

    Concerning japanese people, I don't really know any myself. I would like to meet somebody from Japan someday and learn a little bit about their culture from a native's view. But I imagine they're just like any other people group in a lot of ways.

    I concurr (Though a good copy of Scott Pilgram is fine too)

    I don't have a mouse lurking about in my room. Just lots of spiders.

    Lots and lots of big, Huntsman spiders.

    Takes me an average of 12 minutes a manga volume. Thats if it is not on my slow computer. Once read through 8 issues of psychic academy in 1 hour and 3 minutes. When I am in the zone I read like crazy. In novels I usually go about 100 pages a hour.

    Edit: 3ds typing sucks. But I don't have my comp available so meh.

    I'm glad that's a spider I don't have to contend with. I like the really tiny to midsize spiders, especially if I run into a spider web with a spider in it. But that's too big of a bug for me to deal with.

    Australia.

    Here, the Spiders are so big. They have Health and Mana bars.

    Well. I'm chill with them and they're chill with me. Besides, a Huntsman's bite isn't poisonus, It just looks like it can kill you.

    Yea. it does. but the extra content it gives such as Showing better pictures other than moving the screen to view them, Drop Down opener so you dont have to scroll down through the entire thing, and others that make the 3DS internet a lot better than the DSi's.

    I figured you were from Australia. They apparently have in California where I live, but only in the southern half of the region. Thank goodness.

    Does they still freak you out or have you gotten used to them by now?

    Gotten used to them. After all, when you've had baby Huntsmans hatching in your room since you were 5, You become chill with them.

    Unlike my highly Arachniphobic friend who freezes and starts crying in the sight of a tiny spider. She's deathly afraid of them.

    I've never quite understood arachnophobia. The really tiny ones don't bother me a bit since they pose little threat to me (except maybe poisonous ones)

    The biggest spider i've ever seen was a tarantula a few times when I lived in Mexico. And they're not so bad after a few times. It was pretty cool though to see the goo come out of the abdomen when squished.

    Damn it. My socks for some reason are deteriorating at an insane level. Lost four pair in the last two weeks. And one of the socks I have on now has a pin prick of a hole in it.

    I have that problem too. Literally every one of my socks has holes in the bottom, and in some of them the hole is ridiculously big.

    1. I've never even heard of Death Note. *shot*
    2. Spiders are... cool, I guess.
    3. Socks with holes are a big problem for me.

    Why would you read through anything so quickly? I doubt you're retaining anything that you read if you're speeding through things like that.

    My favorite ever was Barceona 5-0 over Real Madrid. Been a fan of Barca since they had Ronaldinho and it's nice to see them having success.
