Return of the Naruto Community Derail Thread: Part Two!

Because the one who made the decision isn't an accountant. He was used to using it at his previous job and think it's fantastic. Which is founded entirely on him not knowing how to use what we were already using.

Our Finance Manager has also seen it used before, and warned us it was terrible. Our CFO looked over it and was immediately concerned.

But our General Manager didn't listen.

Well... Sounds like your General Manager is horribly short-sighted then.

From the looks of it, I think the only way to get him to change it would be to either organize a petition or a minor protest or something else to show him it's been making stuff harder for all of you which is harming your productivity and possibly his profits as well.

Besides that... I am sorry but I don't really havê much experiente in this sort of thing. I know someone who might havê am idea on what to do but I can only talk to them tomorrow.

...unless of course, if you'd prefer I keep myself shut.

You know, I might have just seen the strangest anime ever. Kyouran Kazoku Nikki is just weird, I wouldn't even know where to start. It's about a paranormal investigator forming a family with a girl he just met and five "kids" they adopt to teach them about love and prevent one of them from destroying the world. The cast includes a psychic catgirl with a god complex, a talking lion, a biological weapon, a intelligent jellyfish and that's just the start.

It's such a weird, weird comedy that could only come up from Japan, it's amazing.

Is that the show I think it is? I remember pretty much the first non DBZ anime I ever watched was when I was at a cousin's house and she had some weird show where this kid visits a family and one son is a werewolf and there's this weird bouncy thing at one point that keeps saying ballooooon balloooooon until someone pops it.

No werewolfs yet, but I really wouldn't be surprised.

Call me when the werewolves are this awesome.

Alternatively... you can make them expies to this guy.

Shlugo: Looked it up. It's not anywhere near old enough to be the series I was thinking of. I must have watched that one around 2000 or so. Well, closer to that than 2008 at least.

Aldnoah Zero in nutshell.◊

Being Slaine is pain.

Ernest And Celestine was pretty good, it went by so much smoother than Memento.

Oh, do all of it was like that.

Random ramblings.

So I just finished reading The Bird That Drinks Tears, a Korean fantasy novel that is (with a bit of exaggeration) called The Lord of the Rings of Korea, for the second time. One of the most interesting things in that novel is the dragons. They are plants. No, seriously.

Also, RWBY's Japanese dubbing cast is confirmed, and holy shit, Hayami Saori, Hikasa Yoko, and Kosimizu Ai...

Damn. Just...damn.

Sounds like 4chan- Wait, my bad, that's The Board That Drinks Tears.

The book also has a sequel, The Bird That Drinks Blood.

The Board That Drinks Blood. I wonder what THAT would be.

Maybe You Tube comment section?

Nah, youtube is 'Shit-that-weeps'

A conversation from The Bird that I found morbidly hilarious:

A:They say that the Arajit warriors are fond of killing the women and raping the men."

B:What? Don't you mean the other way around?

A:No, I'm sure. I heard that it's because only those that are approved by the king are permitted to reproduce.

B:So...what happens if they do manage to reproduce without permission?

A:The king makes sure he will never repeat that.

B:Oh. OH. Well, can't they just rape the women and kill them if they ever get pregnant?

A:Huh, that is a good point.

C: Oh for the love of The Goddess who Leaves No Trail, do we really need to have this conversation when we are about to visit the shelter for women?

A: A food for thought.

C: No wonder why your thoughts are so rotten.

A: Why, thank you.

Is that some kind of parody? Because that was way to silly to show up in a serious book.

You'd be surprised what can show up in serious books.

It's not the exact the conversation, rather a summarized version, but yes, that did show up.

Started Hollow Ataraxia. The story of Mr. A made me think I downloaded the wrong VN, and that it was some sort of prank. Was legit pretty creepy, cause I started thinking about things like Ben Drowned and Lost Silver creepypastas which aren't scary at all but the situation seemed really similar. Hilarious.

Then Tohsaka shows up again and I'm all like

edit: I think Saber just punched out Taiga for trying to steal her food. That's amazing.

What would Ichigo think?

I'm replaying Castlevania, and aiming to actually finish it.

I seem to have an affinity for games that hate me, because I'm having a blast. Those slow-ass attacks, that slow-ass moving speed, as well as the ridiculously strong, yet predictable enemies put an emphasis on timing and dodging that is, like, totally up my alley. There's also something weirdly gratifying about the whip sound effect. It's a little NES fart, yet it just feels good landing your whip on the enemy's soft butts.

And I'm replaying the diablo 2 expansion again. Fucking assassins though, who thought it would be a good idea to combine the worst hit range, abysmal hit chance and charge on strike abilities in one character? It was so much easier when you could hide behind 7000 skellies.

We should all replay old games. This should become a thing.

There's always the opportunity to start a new fiiile. Or do you wanna see your stupid little assassin grow up into a fine young lady, with a knack for slitting throats?

Martial assassins are frustrating, easy traps is where the big money is, not women who kick you with explosions.

Saiga: Better enjoys Tohsaka now. You won't be seeing her again apart from some references for most of the rest of the game.

Hit the ? scenes before the ! ones. They can get locked out otherwise.

I think I only played extensively as an amazon or sorceress in Diablo 2. I lost my legendary self replacing javelin, got pissed and quit.
