  1. mrw: recognizing the Love Live song at the end of that video makes me feel like a weeb :C
  2. o rly now? -------------- Obligatory random video:
  3. Probably....? Can't really remember, but one of the books I got for my birthday is a Pulitzer prize winner, so I will have soon! (It's called All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr) ------------ What was the first band you considered yourself a fan of?
  4. ------------------------
  5. laugh tracks in tv shows
  6. I remember a fair amount from when I was younger, but I think my first one is from when I was 2. I got really sick with something when I was a toddler, and had to be hospitalized for a few days. While I don't remember that, I remember standing in a crib set up in a doctor's office, either at the appointment I had immediately before going home, or it was the appointment that gave me the ok to go home after staying one more night. But I remember staring at the door, waiting for my dad, and becoming elated when I saw that he had a bundle of balloons with him. I just remember being super excited that I got balloons, but also really wanting to go home.
  7. Can't give you the exact episode, but if I'm remembering correctly it's somewhere around ep 70. The people who visit the "Anime series" subforum here could probably tell you the exact episode though.
  8. Sorry for the double post, but Mars is going to be visible all this month! It was closest to Earth on May 30th, and if you watch the news (I think my local news briefly covered this once, and I know the NBC news brought it up one night a little while ago), you were probably told about this last month, but they never mentioned that Mars would remain visible all the way through the end of June. Even though it's June, and Mars's slowly moving away, it should still be visible to the naked eye. Mars can be found around the same area the moon can be seen (there's where it was when I looked for it late last month at least, it might've moved by now idk). It just looks like a bright star with a red tint, so it's not breath taking or anything of that sort, but if you want to feel small, and insignificant for a second or two, it's definitely one of the cooler ways to bring on that feeling. If you really like star gazing, and happen to have a telescope (though you might be able to see these without a telescope, having one would surely heighten the experience), Saturn and Jupiter will also be visible this month too.
  9. I laugh when I'm uncomfortable, and occasionally when I'm nervous. It's not uncontrollable laughter or anything like that, but it sounds like I remembered something amusing, and am having a hard time stifling it. It's very inconvenient :))
  10. In theory, I don't disagree with that. ------------------ What was the best field trip you went on in school?
  11. Someone a week or two ago on reddit mentioned the movie GBF, and since it was on youtube, I decided to watch it out of boredom. I didn't. . . .particularly, ,, , , , ,enjoy it though... Perhaps the best way to describe it is to liken it to the video game Life is Strange. Yeah the concept's alright, and acting's suitable for the most part, but the dialogue sounds like it was written by a bunch of adults trying to sound like teenagers, and that takes a lot away from the overall experience. The humor was really awkward too, and only slightly funny in a cringey sense. (This part perhaps being the worst offender) It also felt just really cliche in a few different ways. tl;dr neat concept, but I didn't necessarily like its execution
  12. Simply put, I don't agree with most, if not all, of his views, and the way he talks about other people concerns me. However, I do think his (and Sander's as well) candidacy and campaign have been significant, and I'm eager to see how it will affect the Republican and Democratic parties in the future. --------------------- Did you have any embarrassing usernames when you were younger?
  13. ..wait for the chorus
  14. Greenland's a third world country apparently. Greenlandic is a language too. I don't know what language I thought was spoken over there, especially considering people in Iceland speaking Icelandic, but I didn't think it would be something as obvious sounding as Greenlandic..
  15. Not particularly... -------- Did you have any bad experiences with animals when you were younger?
  16. I wonder how the Olympics will go this year considering all that's happened Do you mean at what point someone who's only fluent their native language would consider themselves bilingual or almost bilingual? Though I can't speak for everyone, I'd consider myself, and anyone learning an additional language, to be bilingual once they were at a conversational level in terms of both speaking and reading/writing. Fluency sounds very difficult to attain unless one's in an environment where they're frequently exposed to the language they're learning, and are able to practice it regularly, and since not everyone is in such a position, it seems a bit unfair to automatically discredit or undermine all the work someone's put into learning another language, just because they can't quite reach fluency.
