Japan tends to go for very descriptive titles in media. My favorite one of these is when Pixar’s Up became Old Man Carl’s Flying House.

Lord Enma (or Yama) rules over a pretty cool buddhist hell
Every comedy song was by weird al
Ugh, Elon continues to have the absolute most inane sense of humor on the planet. I’m not sure if it’s him or Zuck who are more clearly aliens wearing human skin
They died way before that when japan started putting ketchup on pasta
I caught Robocop 2 on late night cable at some point when I was definitely too young to see the scene when the criminal robot picks up his girlfriend by her head and snaps her neck.
After how Japan mangles names and words into katakana I can’t get too worked up over languages without (formally transcibed) vowel length forget a macron or double letter in publications for non-speakers.
Besides, I don’t think the h thrown into Ohtani is gonna make Dodgers fans say his name any different than without it. It would be similar to trying to get a random Japanese person to use vowels outside the five sounds they have.
They’ve discovered that farmed puffers don’t have toxic organs. The poison comes from the food they naturally ingest, so farming them on a special diet makes them safe.

I guess any fines you don’t pay to Morgan Stanley kina look like revenue if you squint
No one managed to get a shot of the truck in the water apparently
He talked about the guy who gave him that quote in a q&a this week. It was the show’s crime scene analyst Alec Jason.
I ended up rewatching a few episodes of Thundercats some years ago and it was… not great. Can’t remember too many specifics (I think for one thing the dialog was pretty bad) but it definitely wasn’t really appealing as an adult.
The animation style is looser and very experimental, which I remembered, but I really enjoy how rough and non-commercial it is.
I get what you’re saying and I agree, but it’s kind of funny because the cartoon was literally created to promote sales of the toy. They still had creative freedom though because the toy didn’t start with a backstory
Right, I only fly once or twice a year, but I’m not sure how frequency of flying relates to whether reclining a seat is acceptable on a long flight.
I moved roughly halfway around the world from my hometown. Any time I want to see my family I fly 10-14 hours followed by a 3-5 hr connection. Just got back from a trip home that was 29 hours door to door, which was the first time since the pandemic that the airlines didn’t fuck me with delays and missed connections. The last two times were 40+ hours.
No reclining? Fuck that shit-- most of my flights are long as hell and I’m not sitting ramrod straight for 14 hours. I can barely sleep as it is and those extra few degrees of tilt (plus a few beers) are the only thing that lets me get a couple hours passed out.
How about segue?

How about ersatz?
I’m surprised fuckfuck gets even that much usage
