Just remove the "9" from the title, and you get a Beatles song that's cool and not eerie. ;)

I'm beginning to think that social media is just something that gradually erodes your self-esteem and then makes fun of you for not having any left.

It's one thing to make a spectacle. It's another to make a difference.

I'm finding myself now dealing with the problem of how realistic to make a story like debating trying to make it EXACTLY like the real world or giving a little lee-way to allow for some of the common tropes of the "Slice of Life Anime" genre.

Am...am I getting stronger as a writer when I'm thinking of stuff like that?

Trans rights are human rights. TV Tropes is not a place for bigotry, cruelty, or dickishness, no matter who or their position.

Is it my imagination or do people not like the word "nice" anymore?

You ever stumble across a meme in another language?

Do you mean, other than your native language? If so, I see a lot of memes in English.

Yeah. I saw a French anime meme once, and a Spanish one that looked like it had to do with Cinderella earlier today.

Plans 1-8 actually do get a mention in the movie. They tried them, didn't work. Now they must proceed to the ninth plan: reanimation of the humans' dead. Surely that must arouse the attention of even those stupid minds.

[up] Glad to see that aliens use numbers from Earth as well. Arabic numerals, too! That's nice of them.

I think they mention using some kind of translation tech when they finally talk to actual humans.

I'm almost afraid to ask why do you know so much about Plan 9.

I watched it like two or three times. At least once straight, at least once with Rifftrax.

The time I watched it straight it was in class and I had to write a page or two about the message of the movie and its effectiveness.

It's so stilted it's just that quotable. "We are all interested in the future, for that is where we will spend the rest of our lives." "That thing killed a city! A city of people! People who died!"

All the Vocaloid fans are raving over Yumemi Nemu, and I'm just waiting for Yuezheng Longya to never be released.

All this The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild stuff that's been positively SPAMMING You Tube is making me mad. I'm trying to resist the temptation to look at anything that's not a guaranteed spoiler free review of the game, darn it!
