#stop asking stupid questions

[mr-arcturus]

Random rant....

Anytime I see a dude ask "what's your body count" I automatically assume your dick is small and you can't fuck. People like fucking bro. As long as you're safe about it who cares. They didn't learn that one trick from eating popsicles my dude. Shut up and enjoy the ride.

Prolly one of those dudes that can't change a tire or still laughs at "women belong in the kitchen jokes"

Aiight back to the titties and beer

Did you hear of the news?

I have. :(

Everyone else has their tributes so, here, a summary of my experience with Dragon Ball.

I was in fourth grade art class. A kid had the February 2005 issue of Shonen Jump, back when Shonen Jump was still physically printed here. I recognized Atem on the front cover because the Blockbuster around the corner from our house had DVDs (I think they were DVDs and not VHSs then since I distinctly remember it having a menu and special features) of some of the later episodes of Duelist Kingdom and my brother and I watched them on repeat. So I was like oh, hey, what's this? They make books of that stuff? I don't remember the conversation but the kid ended up giving me that issue, and I took it home with me.

There were a LOT of significant, groundwork things happening in that issue, now that I think about it. We were just beginning to see Sanji truly in action against Pearl. The Dark Tournament was in it's early stages still with Roto fucking around and finding out against Kurama. Sakura shears off her hair in a move that rearranged sexualities the world over. The reason Atem was on the cover was because Yu-Gi-Oh Millennium World was just debuting its first and second chapter. Bleach wasn't even serialized yet. And Dragon Ball, of course, was also there, about a hundred and fifty chapters ahead of everybody else.

Keep in mind that this was my first experience with manga, period. So my very first experience with Dragon Ball opened on this:

and ended on this:

Yeah. Truth be told, at the time Yu Yu Hakusho piqued my interest more than Dragon Ball (a guy fighting with plants? how creative!) but I never did forget these chapters. I thought the art style was so different from the others.

At some point after this, probably between several months and a year and a half, the TV happened to be on one evening when Toonami was airing Dragon Ball Z. Oh hey, I said, I recognize that art, I know those characters. So I hung around and watched some of episode 281. Two things about watching that episode stick with absolute crystal clarity in my mind to this day. Firstly: Buu choking Vegeta out with his arm freaked me the FUCK out as a child. I could not tell you why I had a fear reaction to it but hey, there you go. The second is this:

Specifically I remember 'You died once. If anything happens to you now, you won't exist anymore. There'll be nothing I can do to bring you back.' Not precisely word for word over the years, but Schemmel's tone of voice on this particular lineread. If I had to guess I'd say it was because at that point in my life, uh, death was kinda permanent? So wait, what do you mean died ONCE. Doesn't that apply to everyone?

This still wasn't enough to get me super invested in it though, it just didn't seem like something that would appeal to me that much. So a couple years go by, I don't think about it all that much, and then of course, TFS hits the scene and drops DBZ Abridged. So you know. As a shithead middle schooler with a shithead sense of humor I thought it was the best damn thing since sliced bread. (My biggest character flaw is that I still think a lot of Season 1 is genuinely funny)

And that was really the extent of my interaction with the franchise for the next several years. Say what you will about DBZA but they did manage to put it all together such that someone who had a nonexistent concept of what the original context was could grok it with not a lot of effort. Some time in high school, I think I was around 15, I decided to bite the bullet and read all the manga, as much to increase the funny factor of DBZA as sheerly for the sake of being able to say I had. Stick it to the other weebs, y'know. Now they can't say I didn't know anything about good anime. This was unfortunately at a time when all that was available online were dirty poor-quality scans and questionable translations, but read it I did. I went 'yep, that sure is about what I expected', and proceeded to get on with my life. GT came and went, I looked up and saw Battle of Gods coming out and went 'oh hey that's still a thing huh', kinda was peripherally aware of all the divisiveness of Super as it was happening, didn't really pay it much attention, just stuck to DBZA and quite a lot of wiki-ing.

And then, this time of year about three years ago now, in the middle of conversation with @prophecydungeon, Dragon Ball somehow came up. Something to do with 'Even though I'm not hugely into DBZ's story or whatever Toriyama does have some great character designs' (yes I was referring to Vegeta and Future Trunks at the time, no i will not stop being predictable, yes i am a parody of myself). They eventually brought up the DBS Broly movie and said, and i quote: 'that was a solid 1.5h of unbelievably fun and wacky animation'. Having seen the Gogeta vs Broly part of it on twitter and been like 'damn that animation's kinda off the hook actually, good for them good for them', my response was to be like. Oh word? I've got a spare hour and a half to kill, sure, fuck it, why not, time to watch DBS Broly.

I think that movie was precision crafted to hit me in the hyperfixation, if we're being honest. Opening on a solid 20 minutes of Lore and Worldbuilding and then having most of the rest of the runtime being mindless slobberknocker fun by way of some of the hardest animation flexes ever? I was done for.

In summation. I have been aware of Dragon Ball for a lot of my life, in that its presence was pervasive and enduring as I grew up. I may have been late to the game of actually wholeheartedly enjoying it, but enjoy it I do. Dragon Ball is the roots of a vast tree of anime, and in reading it I began to understand why that is. I respect it for that, and I love it for that. My current fixation may have shifted, but as far as time devoted to one individual thing goes... it took me a year and a half to watch my way through all of the anime and read all of the manga. ALL of it. So there's something good in there, I'd say.

Really enjoyed Dune II but while watching I just couldn’t stop thinking about how they were too scared to show how tf they get down from from those fucking worms

#really guys how do they do it #I don’t think they can just ask the worm to stop #do they just… jump off? #I have so many stupid questions about these movies #dune part two #dune movie #dune 2024 #fremen

Hello! I saw your post giving some facts about your Quartz Bee series,

I was just wondering something (And this might sound very stupid) What you mean by Tim being trans? Mtf? Or Ftm?

Either way, thank you for adding representation!

Have a lovely rest of your day! Stay happy healthy and safe!

(P.S: Sorry if this sounds weird, this isn't my first language and also it's quite late for me!)

You can notice his top surgery scars on these panels from the second chapter!

My pillroach credit card continues to be a hit everywhere. Had an employee at a place I get lunch frequently come stumbling out of the back to “finally” ask to get a good look at it bc he’s been seeing that it was a yugioh card but had never had the chance to see Which one. I had to hold myself back from giving him the entire rundown of the pillroach card background

#you can’t ask me What card this is I will explain how the real card was only printed in English in a McDonald’s collab #and that its official English name is stupid as fuck and belies a questionable understanding of Japanese (not unique to pillroach) #and then I’ll start disclosing exactly what aspects of the card are custom and what the background color is and that the card art I used is #japanese only and t #Con stop yapping #number one pillroach fan blog #Con goes to the shadow realm

Well a patient made me cry today for the first time (at this job anyway lol) so that was fun.

#to be fair I asked what in hindsight was a stupid question #but she yelled at me so harshly and went on and on #I had to hide in the back office for half an hour bc I couldn’t stop crying #I hate being so sensitive #personal

> cat's urinary episode probably caused by stress

> both my parents left for a vacation earlier this week

> the implication that my cat got stressed out from my parents leaving

> which includes my mother, who has [redacted] me and is abusive and just Not a Nice Person

> my mother, who finds fault in litcherally everything i do for the cats. and even if i give in and do what she wants... several months later, she's complaining again

> swapped their litter several months ago to pine pellets. they've adapted nicely. their litter is fine. also doesn't track everywhere (something my mother complained about for MONTHS with their previous litter)

> my mother, unprompted: did the vet say that maybe this could be caused by their new litter?

i fucking hate her.

#borbtalks #my mother is fucking stupid and asks really pointed questions like that to try to force her opinion as Being the Right One #this includes asking me if maybe my hrt. the stuff that helped me not be low level depressed all the time. has turned me into... #.... an angry cold mean heartless brat. and that maybe bc im autistic im just not self aware enough to notice. #like uhhh no youve been calling me an angry cold mean heartless brat since i was like 5 #or asking if my dr has said im immunocompromised (with the implication that if im not. i shouldnt be masking around them.... #....i started masking around them after they tested pos for covid and didnt tell me for several days) #or when i said i wouldnt be able to participate in thxgiving bc i was having a rough time w/ my health & she asked #'is it bc of ur chronic illnesses or are u just being antisocial?' #my mother will find any fault within me & if she cant. she'll make one up. #and then everyone in my family will take her fucking side bc umm yeah her looking up ur skirt & purposefully staring at u naked is bad... #but have u um. talked to her? and asked her to stop? i just think u need to give her another chance :) #fuckijg. putting myself in a clown car & hoping it explodes.

med school has lowkey broken me, my friend asked me a question about football yesterday and I got too nervous to answer even though I knew it

#like I immediately started doing my nervous fidgeting with my hands #it is not subtle #and then I said “I can't answer when I'm on the spot” #and then I tried to answer and trailed off and said “I don't know” halfway through #even though I was actually right #it's a little pathetic #but I am so goddamn nervous about getting asked any questions ever #like oh god they're gonna find out I'm stupid #and I did not use to be this way #I hate being like this #I should be able to answer a question MY FRIEND asks me without freaking out #but it's gonna take a while to stop having this reaction #this is one of the things I hate about med school #like people will defend the harsh treatment of students as necessary #but I was so much more functional before this #way more capable #the anxiety this has given me has made it way harder to get things done #or apparently just exist in social settings #well this will be another story for therapy #medblr #med school #medicine #med student #my content #my text posts

Anyone wanna know an inconsequential BTS thing I always found a bit sus and for some reason just popped back into my brain?

Yeh? ok

When they're asked who the best dancer is and they all say J-Hope, now the other 6 all agreeing on this? I'd be suprised but it's not inherently sus, the sus is J-Hope. What's your answer my guy? Even if he thinks it's himself usually they have a someone other than themself answer they'll use, you'd think even if he wanted to say himself he'd say probably Jimin, but someone else, him not doing that is so like...

when they were rookies they were told this is what their answer should be, and they've stuck with it ever since.

#bts #like you're gonna tell me none of JK Suga and RM prefer Jimin's dancing? I frankly don't think that's true #yes i'm calling them liars yes they lie about shit of course they do #bleh #but this isn't even like a proper lie #it's a #idk #this is what the answer is meant to be and it was always meant to be and we don't think about what that means anymore or if it is true or n #it's not an answer to the question #it's a programmed response yk #but even if they all do prefer j-hope which would be fair he is amazing #what's with him #what's his answer #why doesn't he answer #you can say yourself that's fine #like it's just so #there is no opinion happening #it is a programmed answer and for why #like when they were actual babies and establishing roles in the group maybe having a pre determined answer made sense #or was useful #probably could move past that #or stop asking it's fucking stupid question #like what's better dali or monet #idk my guy what are you into they're both technically incredible it's art what speaks to you #this isn't a question someone else can tell you the answer to in any meaningful way #so tl;dr #i think they were told to say that #and they just never thought about it again #probably don't even consider what their individual answer would be if they were gonna give it
