I was cleaning the bathroom today (different bathroom from the one where I kept finding twigs in the urinals), and I noticed that there was a vent in the door near the bottom of the door to the women's room, but a vent near the top for the men's. Is there any particular reason for this? Did they just put a door in upside-down?

Rune Factory 4 is anime as fuck.

Parable - do you have something against me, or am I not taller than you being 6'4?

On the flip side, a lot of people complimented on my NASA cosplay and immediately associated me with Hetalia despite not being a country, and it is just Friday.

Inori is always a few years behind the latest trends, and doesn't necessarily know all the skills you'd expect someone her age to understand. But she's making strides to improve and now mainly has a reputation to live down while all the cute developer boys would rather date Firefox-Tan, Opera-Tan, and Chrome-Tan. (According to Wikipedia only Inori has a proper name).

@ Carrotbox. I use IE on my Windows Phone (duhhhh, alongside Bing also, duhhh), and I am 101% confident that IE doesn't deserve its reputation any more. Even on my Windows 8 PC, IE is the fastest browser I have on here - quickest to launch and quickest to search.

Yeah, but it's not nearly as shiny as other browsers.

One of the big issues of IE is that it often lacks support which other browsers do have for certain capabilities, although I'll flat out admit while I need them for certain aspects of what I do, most won't.

Not as customizable. Still not up to standards for devs. And I hate the layout with the address bar and tabs given only half the window.

Wikipedia suggests the OS-Tan meme started with somebody deciding Windows ME's instability easily translated to a troubled girl.

@ Mukodad. I guess so.

@ Begonia. You know this, as someone with a Windows Phone, most mobile webites don't format correctly because most of the mobile web uses webkit (used by iOS Safari), while IE is a trident-based browser.

If you enrol yourself in the Dev Preview and update to Windows Phone OS 8.1 GDR 1 Beta, it improves IE compatibility with mobile websites by pretending that its an iPhone.

Which has the amusing effect of recognising my Lumia 920 as:

Internet Explorer has an anime-tan version called "Inori". Goddammit, that's super-kawaii desu.

Man, Inori is awesome. How many other browser-tans can take a laser to the face?
