Normal is a very relative term, you know.

I guess it's my turn to cave to peer pressure: Me.


Maybe Zac figures we're normal, by ANN standards. This could be completely different from society though. In the real world if we walked out in public we might be shunned and herded into back alleys or under bridges where we can hide in boxes and live off of scraps in dumpsters. When it gets dark and foggy we can slink around at night scaring little children and eating small animals. Shocked

Wow! Answerman answered my question! I wrote the 'kid-voice actors' question.

...Sorry for interrupting. Man, that was exciting! Anime smile

And I should have known that Al was done by a kid...his whine was too child-like (in a good way).

By the way: This is what I look like.http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n278/Djanki/Levitz9.jpg

I was just kidding a bit. Didn't the Wink make that clear?

I'm largely of the same mindset as TestamentSaki and just thought I would make a small joke. I know normal is a relative term. I'm actually rather fond of the movie In the Mouth of Madness and a line from it basically says "the sane and insane can easily switch places if the insane become the majority." Normalcy and reality are dictated by the majority opinion.

I have been a tad surprised by how good people look though. Normal might actually be an insult if applied to some of the ladies on here. Shocked (We could use one of those anime nosebleed smilies.)

Oh, and Jariten, nice picture! For some reason, your face reminds me of Anthony Michael Hall.

Child actors sound a lot better but I don't think anime has the budget for child actors. Most Canadian's should remember Sugar from the Zone (She did the second voice for Rini in Sailor Moon) and she sounds exactly like a child. I do find it annoying sometimes when a character in anime who is like 5 sounds too high pitched and weird sounding because it's obvious that a 35 year old did it.

This might well be the best banner ever, you need to submit that for the answerman column this week. I like how there even a very tiny Bamboo in there, she's like tinker bell.

That banner is simply awesome. I agree Bamboo looks like a little cosplay tinker bell. I think she's that little voice of reason you hear. You know the cartoons with the little angel on the shoulder? That was Bamboo. The little angel on their shoulders. Except instead of whispering happy thoughts she whispers malevolent thoughts and drives them to madness. I think she and dormcat have a plot to take Zac out. She quietly puts evil thoughts in his mind and then dormcat drives him nuts with the subliminal messages hidden in the patterns on his plaid shirts. Unfortunately it seems PG walked in at some point and the message got screwed up and now he's infatuated with dormcat and plaid. I heard he asked WP to dress up as AL from Home Improvement the next time she goes to a con. Shocked

oh, well. the only digital pics I have of myself are the ones from last year's prom and after-prom. And you don't want to see my afterprom, drunk and stoned people aren't too hot to look at.

So here's me. Oh, I'm the Guy in that picture
I love wearin' suits.
