Just post whatever comes to mind.
Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.
If Oscar Wilde had lived in our time, he would be a /b/tard.
Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

Read my stories!"Trade paperback" is the word I was probably looking for but wasn't nearly articulate enough for.
READ THIS COMIC. | Read along as I play through my games collection!Its basically a single volume of a manga. When used in a non-manga context it is indeed a one shot but within manga terms its the chapters collected from a magazine and put into book form.
A tankōbon would be what I hold in my hand and read and call "A manga."

It's a bizarrely calming and therapeutic experience.

"I can't imagine what Hell will have in store, but I know when I'm there, I won't wander anymore."This sounds like the most awesome film ever created.
You're an ad hominem attack!It actually is.
Not gonna lie, that movie is the greates.
READ THIS COMIC. | Read along as I play through my games collection!The Government and the People are in an abusive relationship. The Government dedicates everything they are to serve the People, only does what the People allow them to do, and makes it abundantly clear that whatever power they have comes from the People. The Government is not allowed to spy on or know the personal details of the People. The People, however, allow the Government no privacy and know everything about the Government. should the Government do something and not tell the People, the People will get upset. Also, the People blame the Government for everything that goes wrong and deeply resents whenever they have to support the Government with taxes.
Run, Government, Run! Get out of that relationship! The People are just using you, they don't really love you! Run!
Never be without a Hat! Hot means heat. I don't care if your usage dates to 1300, it's my word, not yours. My Pm box is open.There is a kind of shameless "I am so full of bullshit and I know it" William Castle kind of feel to the Asylum I can't help but like.
Also, I love you, Aliroz.
Kill all math nerdsSo is Thorpe Holmes literally Spring-Heeled Jack? As in, has springs on his boots and breathes fire?
You're an ad hominem attack!"The People are just using you, they don't really love you!"
Pretty sure the People made that clear when they first entered this relationship.
"What a century this week has been." - Seung Min KimBased on the Wikipedia summary, Spring-Heel Jack has a suit of steampunk Powered Armor.
This really is the best movie.
Kill all math nerdsYep.
And he rides around on a mecha-dragon that shoots fire.
And he has a robot wife whom he uses as an Action Bomb.
READ THIS COMIC. | Read along as I play through my games collection!I think if I watched that film, my head would explode.
Also, while it's supposed to be shocking, I still maintain that this ad is absolutely hilarious:
@Parable: Yeah, but the People weren't expecting the Government to be so loyal and dedicated to them, in contrast to the abusive, manipulative Government that the People had just broken up with.
Never be without a Hat! Hot means heat. I don't care if your usage dates to 1300, it's my word, not yours. My Pm box is open.I let out an ant instead of brutally murdering it for once.
I hope it doesn't come back with reinforcements.

Kill all math nerdsOne day you will fall into a ditch on a cold rainy night. Your ankle will be broken and you can't climb out. No one is around to hear you scream for help while the water pours down on you.
Then that ant you spared will see you and bring all her friends to build a cover for you while others dig up more of the ditch to keep the water from rising. Thousands of and will be washed away and perish but you will survive.

From Wikipedia:
In English, while a tankōbon translation is usually marketed as a "graphic novel" or "trade paperback", the transliterated terms tankoubon and tankōbon are sometimes used amongst online communities. Japanese people frequently refer to manga tankōbon as komikkusu (コミックス), from the English word "comics".
