It’s pretty new-biased for all the stuff I’ve watched, but I can’t think of many others…

Retirement’s gonna be awesome for these guys. Imagine sitting in a little closet of an apartment eating pet food, but at least you have a wall of vinyl records by the Bangles or something.

My take is… I haven’t watched yet because I’m waiting for the BD. I loved Bake, and recommended it to others. I imagine I’ll love Nise, but I’m going to keep that to myself unless I’m talking to an otaku.

That may sound kind of naive, but I think you’ve got it, really. If you want to hook up with someone right away, make yourself look like the ideal. If you want to be forever alone, be as weird as you wanna be all the time and make no effort to change. If you want [...]

So she’s not a gravure model… it’s not like she’s trying to be. This is awesome. Behold the power of geekdom!

Yep… these helmets send a very clear message: “I’d sooner die than actually wield a weapon on the battlefield.” If that’s not the case, then… wow. These things look like a massive handicap. A windy day or even a fast horse ride could have their heads twisting around beyond control and if someone found a [...]

Hashimoto is a shame to those in public office. He adopts too many modern Western styles. Not dying his hair? Hah! That should go without saying. I want to see that disrespectful punk with a shaved pate and topknot! It’s only fitting for one serving in public office… haha

Hey, anonymous Internet tough guy. I bet you’re the CEO of a multimillion dollar company that you founded from the ground up, amirite? No matter, you should actually read up on the thing you’re trying to define, because I’m not employed, in education or training, or seeking the above right now. Hence, NEET. I didn’t [...]

Uh yeah… kind of obvious really. So take that to its logical conclusion – I’m not currently looking for work. I’m not planning to live my whole life on some kind of social assistance, but I don’t need to work at the moment.

k, I think in some cases, these guys need to come to terms with these unpleasant motivations to go out there and earn their part. I’m a NEET living at home, but I worked and made a bunch of cash and I pay rent and buy my own things, so it’s not like I’m being [...]

If they’re smart, it won’t take that long to fix. They should have a new technology card in waiting for this. If it’s like the Echostar/Nagravision systems (Dish Network, Bell ExpressVu) they’ll just have to mail out the new technology card to their subscribers, warn them all of the switch over date, and flip the [...]

On the right track, I’d say! If you wanted to, you could probably find SOME kind of club activity or enthusiast group to meet with – that could fix the social, and maybe even sex issue. I worked with guys who figured they’d be forever alone at 40-something, then got married shortly after, so… IF [...]

I was NEET for a year… but when I got a job, man did it ever feel good to have a purpose again. On the tail end of another year of it now, but I’ve gotta snap out of it soon because it’s driving me nuts – I’m burning through the last of my youth [...]

That’s kind of a silly reduction. You think there’s literally no ground in between going straight to sex or (spoiler… 3… 2… 1…) dragging on for over 2 years of school without admitting they’re in a relationship, hugging or holding hands? They’re like business associates – not even business partners, just acquaintances who get upset [...]

Some people think a relationship can actually work like that. Never met one who managed though – in real life it’s called the friend zone.

Neko + Meganekko

So he might be forced to take an x-ray for being accused of peeping on people in a public setting? That’s a little extreme. I could see it for the hang gliding instructor who swallowed the memory card showing his client dying, but for public photography it’s going too far. That said, I’m not condoning [...]

I think it’s a cute series, but perspectives change as you move on. I appreciate that it’s fiction, but sometimes when I read it I still think “this guy is wasting his youth going nowhere. He’s in an exclusive relationship with a girl who barely seems to like him.”

Um, I don’t think it was a technical critique of Polaroid film… more that you don’t really find film cameras or film anymore so either this anime takes place in the past (going on the camera) or this guy is some kind of camera otaku with connections to get film.

It’s a goroawase. Most Japanese would get the pun.
