  1. I don't mean to ruin the holiday mood with imagery of greed, I just got heavy Xmas vibes from listening to the melody.
  2. The "Evil is Sexy" trope... Evil is Sexy
  3. Occasionally I still get bitten by the metal bug every now and then...it does happen to me. Another favorite band from my childhood. I actually wonder how this song would sound like as a synthwave cover with all of the vocals still present?
  4. I cannot comment on Aussieland, but in the US they are horrible. I am just going to let former schoolteacher John Taylor Gatto do the talking... More videos here: John Taylor Gatto TV
  5. Marcus Aurelius was a very wise man. "The evil that men do lives after them" - from "Julius Caesar" by William Shakespeare.
  6. Welcome to AF! It sounds like you jumped through a lot of hoops to feed your passion for anime. That took a lot of dedication.
  7. Looks like the needles of a Fir or Spruce in your header.

      Interesting colour too.

      Years ago, I was actually disappointed when I found out that the common name "Purple Spruce" ( Picea purpurea ) only referred to the colour of its cones and not its foliage. I should have realized at the time that if such a thing literally existed that people would be planting them as ornamentals all over the place just like they do with Colorado Blue Spruce ( Picea pungens ). To be fair, Picea purpurea is not an unattractive tree; unfortunately very little is published about its actual climate preferences, and not all Spruce are alpine. The colossal Picea sitchensis ( Sitka Spruce ) grows in the temperate ( or maritime ) coastal rainforest in the American Pacific Northwest. More than one species of Chinese Spruce and Fir inhabit cool moist climates which are similar.

      it took quite some time for this to process in my head lol

  8. I love them...they provide lots of fuel for dark comedies.
  9. That's good! New Generation entertainment from North America is a bad influence on society.
  10. Eh...meh. The actual theme songs composed by the great Ron Wasserman for Jason David Franks' character slapped much harder... None of the succeeding iterations could ever hold a green candle to the original MMPR ( aka "Super Sentai Zyuranger" ). I actually couldn't believe that Wasserman changed his style when he did the music in "DinoSquad". Like WTF?! At first, I was like, "this is just some cafe hipster trying to sound like Wasserman...wait...that's Wasserman's name in the credits! Ron Wasserman composed the music for "DinoSquad!" Maybe I take music just a little too seriously but...why Wasserman? Why did you do it? RIP to the Green/White Ranger, the mightiest one of them all. In so many ways he reminded me of the character wrestlers I watched in the WCW and the WWF Monday Night Wars. I heard he even trained in MMA in real life. The man was something else. Edit: If you haven't watched "Super Sentai Zyuranger", I would highly recommend that you do. The storyline was quite different from its Western adaptations. I will warn younger and more sensitive viewers that it was considerably darker in its tone than MMPR was...more violence, important characters dying - that type of stuff.
  11. I would actually rate this number much higher than that "Skittles" one that you posted earlier brother. I'm just trying to rank them properly in order of best to worst. You could almost say that I am obsessed with music. No, this is not kayfabe - ooooh yeeeaaah!!
  12. I like the lyrics of that one. That's pretty much the same way that I perceived the other students; the so-called 'cool kids' were not interesting at all as a rule. When I was growing up, I always dreamt of exploring far off exotic places with landscapes I had never seen with my own eyes before. For the most part, I would say that the others were dead inside.
