Yeah, irresponsible captain tyler is alright, its worth your time if you feel like watching somthing with an overwhelming early ninetys vibe though, the intro especially. It's incredibly goofy at least if that's what you're looking for.

Game Grumps is a show where youtube stars Egoraptor (of metal gear awesome fame) and JohnTron play video games and shoot the ****:

and the community for the series is awesome as well, effectively making the gamegrumps a band:

as well as animating moments of the show:

I personally don't think you lose anything of actual substance skipping the incredibly overrated original Evangelion TV series, outside an amusing battle won via Dance Dance Revolution (yes, really).

you know i was about to go into a tyrade against the show, saying its the most overrated thing ever and doesn't really deserve it's title as "the best anime's ever" as the OP put it but whatever, seems like the only person posting in this thread who has seen it agrees anyways. Although Evangelion was the first anime i've ever seen outside of just casually watching whatever was on Adult Swim or Toonami (back in the day)

Also I think Evangelion 3.33 is out now but i don't know if it's been subtitled or not (then again, that could be moot if you're waiting for the Dub).

As for FMA I've only seen brotherhood, and am saving the original when i feel like re watching it. However, i'll probably give it a shot soon, since i didn't really realize it was that different. And for Helsing Ultimate I deliberately waited for the entire series to be over before i started watching it and now i can watch the whole thing without forgetting what happened when i left off haha

a book i want to share (i'm actually a bit of a health nut):

-Mindlesss eating by Brian wansink <-- food psychology (and how to use it for your benefit)

Long story short:

I would recommend not counting calories, eaten and burned. If you eat the right things and you exercise regularly (you don't need to be a gym rat), that will take care of itself. People get too caught up in the numbers, but being healthy is about how you feel and that can't be quantified. Be mindful of your limits even if you want faster results. It's important just to keep going and do so gradually.

just eat fruits and vegetables and don't listen to any other health advice that isn't super obvious. As long as you're eating healthy and exercising everything else sorts itself out. However knowing a thing or two about food psychology is a definite help so you can use it to your advantage without even actually thinking about it ,which is why i mentioned that book.

that page probably has the best amazon review that I have ever read in my life.
Also i haven't actually seen that show, but based off clips from youtube it looks pretty terrible (and yes, children are shot). I wasn't even sure if the funhouse could handle it so i didn't bother linking them.

lol I didnt know stalin had a singing schoolgirl division of the army

Watched Minecraft: the story of mojang

it was pretty interesting even though I've never actually played minecraft before. The documentary starts off when Notch starts his company, so if you want an origin story about the game itself this isnt really it. It's less about the making of the game and more about the people behind it and the impact the game has had.

I would imagine that scenario would happen if the wiiU2's tablet controller was itself a handheld, and wasnt tethered by blutooth.

it would also cost a boatload

I never read long articles on main site.

I just don't.

Confusing layout, annoying ads all over the place and small reading space make reading anything longer than one paragraph a pain.

www.readability.com and get the browser add on
you can thank me later.

Anyways, this is a great idea
