Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

How come it's shouNEN and shouJO, but JOsei and seiNEN? Wherefore this irregular ordering of presumably-morphemes?

Right! But how come -nen is at the end in both, but -jo- changes positions?

So, you were intrigued by the order of Jo-sei, but haven't bothered to think of the opposite order?

Hm? What do you mean? I haven't seen "seijo" employed anywhere — I could, theoretically, use it myself, but for all I know I could be violating some obscure grammatical rule of Japanese.

Yeah. Violating grammatical rules. You should ask:

Anemotaxis/Blackmoon/Solstace. Those know the language.

I wonder if “He died doing what he loved” would be an appropriate epitaph for someone who suffered an erotic asphyxiation accident.

I just recently discovered we have that trope.

Why does an Internet meme make me pumped up and feel like I can do anything?

Also, the name/word "Hyperion" is inherently awesome.

An useless name, a forsaken connection.

@Weiss: Drag an HDTV into the middle of a local park, find a way to hook it up, and just sit there playing Half Life 2 for a while. Someone should fall into your lap eventually.

Facebook, where it only matters if you can get your "friends" involved.

INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.
