Alright, confess odd things.

For example, I'm jealous to my big brother becuase he discovered The Smiths first. Dammit, now I can't have a crush for Morrisey without feeling weird about it.

I feel like he would have one for the sole purpose of trying to impress and seduce Princess Peach.

Me and my brother always figured he was actively trying to get you killed. He was still a bad guy like in all the other games, just sneakier about it.

[up]DUDE. That makes sense!

Confession time: My daughter is 10 years old today. I've been a mom for 10 years. I still feel like my grasp of parenting is tenuous at best. My kid keeps growing and changing, which is a good thing, but my old strategies stop working and I have to try new things.

It's my first time being her mom, and her first time being a kid, and it shows. Still, she is kind, and that is my goal for her...so we're doing okay. :)

I imagine every line in the Gallant and Goofus thread being read in an old-timey narrator voice, like in The Dover Boys, or the old Goofy "How to" shorts.

No "Bowser's Fury" questions please. I haven't played it yet.

I'm learning to draw faces in profile. It's frustrating. I feel bad when I draw a cute person or character and then mess it up. So! I'm only drawing people who I don't like! If I get it wrong, I've made an ugly caricature! And if I get it right, I can draw an anvil above their head or something.

It's feels really odd knowing that someone's parent grew up playing Super Mario when my own parents are too old to know anything about video games

My parents are in their fifties. I think most people my age 's parents are in their forties, though

on age, this guy is 18, going on 19

I've spoiled myself on almost every culturally-relevant (well within the western/anime sphere) piece of media in this god-forsaken earth.

I'm 35. My mom would be 61 if she were still alive, and my dad would be 74. Their story is convoluted, and I will never know the whole thing.

My daughter is 10. My goal is to be around when she's an adult. In fact, I'd love to hang out with her when we're both Cool Old Ladies.

Weeaboo alert, but it annoys me when people (in the context of anime) say "the original Japanese dub". That's the original; it's not a dub!

I mean, technically it is. It's a dub over previously mute animation.

Strangely enough, I seem to have the habit of hugging people a bit too much. At least, that's what my family usually says. They're usually the people I hug, though.

It's a simple emotional gesture that all cultures understand which is very good for somebody who doesn't speak Arabic and Sudanese people hug each other A LOT!

I sing to my cat.

My cat enjoys my singing, or at least seems to, if her running over to me and rubbing her head against my legs when I do it is any indication.

Stupid doomed timeline...

I sing the first verse of "You Are My Sunshine" to my cat. I don't do this for any other animal. I dunno what he thinks of my singing, but he stays put in my arms until I'm finished so I assume he knows it's a loving gesture.

I second that being super sweet!

I...say good night to the two characters who I feel closest to every night, and tell them I love them. Sometimes I say good morning, too. And sometimes I'm only convinced to get up and do things because I don't want to disappoint them.

I talked my mom out of buying an AC/DC album because I can't fucking stand Brian Johnson's singing voice.

#52375: Apr 29th 2017 at 10:51:49 AM

Yeah, Brian Johnson's voice can be a bit annoying at times, but I find the real problem with AC/DC to be that they've been making the same album for four decades.
