    Coworker is really hooked on one of the new Taylor Swift songs, and it just so happened to be the one with a chorus that I just irrationally hate

    Coincidence? Maybe. Perhaps.

    The First Take version coming out reminded me just how much of a poignant, understated banger this ending song was. I wasn't like a day 1 Naruto fan. I really only watched it in elementary school. Even so, the first few openings and endings never fail to make me feel something. Also this song's in 5/4 time, which is cool.

    I was reading White Nights by Dostoevsky on one of my lunch breaks, but I ended off in the middle of one of the guy's trademark yap sessions. It's been a couple of days since then, and now I don't remember where I'm supposed to continue. I guess I'll just read the yapping from the very beginning to make sure I don't lose anything

    This is the point where you suddenly wake up reincarnated inside the book you're reading so the author can teach you a life lesson. :blob_aww:

    Dear god, I would rather die then reincarnate into one of his books. There's almost no good endings for any of his characters...

    Well, at least almost all of them are nobles and have enough money to live a comfortable life, instead of plowing the feilds... :blob_hmm_two:

    I was about to say how some people want to be ruined. If you can't fix her, let Dostoevsky fix you or something. :blob_evil:

    Pinkerton is a special album. To see a band go from overnight sensations to scaring the hoes. To see Rivers Cuomo go from the cute dude in the music video for Buddy Holly to a guy with yellow fever.

    El Scorcho is a very loser song, and it found me at a very loser time in my life. I think there is value in that. We can't be winners all the time, so here's to being a loser.

    Genghis Khan was the first ever and only self-made billionaire—and perhaps trillionaire

    The actual wealth of the Mongol Empire was unknown, but it was said to have trillions of dollars worth of diamonds, 2 million tons of gold, and trillions more in other gems. This and the territory it owned would drive the empire into having USD 120 trillion worth of assets.

    Also Genghis Khans DNA can be traced to over 16million people today, so calling you a 'descendants of Genghis Khan' may not be wrong.

    Lmao he said that anyone in the class could be his descendant. I didn’t understand then. But I did later on.

    Some things make me feel such profound emotions, like of nostalgia or melancholy, but I know I'll never be able to convey them because they're so linked to my personal experiences. While that bums me out as a (supposed) writer, I also kind of like the very fact that those emotions tied to those experiences are exclusively mine

    I used to be so good at "guess the anime opening" quizzes but now there are just too many shows, and my music taste has gotten obnoxious to the point of not liking most modern anime openings

    but I was the anime opening GOAT in 2014

    I was so invested in watching animes that I would forget everything else. I would sit in front of the TV 24/7 except for sleeping. And now I can't even find a good anime to pass my free time.

    As a straight man, are you allowed to call a gay man "girl" or is that exclusively for other gay men as well as women to use? This knowledge might come in handy sometime

    I'll be honest, I don't even really know what The Who sound like. I've just heard a bunch of tracks here and there, and this is one of them. What can I say, CSI played a lot on TV.

    Baba O'Riley might be my favorite of the CSI themes though. Just unmatched machismo

    I don't even really fuck with The Who like that, but this level of irreverence for the classic rock greats could get you killed in the wrong nursing homes

    Unless that rating is for Pete Townsend possibly being a pedophile, in which case I agree

    As a professional exorcist, would it be moral to force a spirit to move on if it actually enjoyed its current situation?

    I was thinking of a situation where like a benevolent spirit's initial hangup hasn't been resolved, but they've also found other meaning and fulfillment in their current afterlife.

    Hmm. I guess we'd have to ask why a spirit stays in the first place. I'd be thinking that if they're truly benevolent, they'd accept that it's time to move on regardless of whether that's what they want or not.

    In other words, if they want to stay for an indefinitely long period of time, it feels like they'd have to have some insincere motive for doing so.

    If that spirit possessed someone to enjoy its situation, then nope. Hell naww
