Except the English, obviously. :p No like for me @RadFemHedonist? Was it the comment about the Mormons? If it makes any difference I don’t have anything against them I don’t also have against every other organised religion.

Well, the Mormons have my DNA now. Don’t go cloning me or anything, believe me, you don’t want that. Fascinating stuff, where do I apply for Scottish citizenship? Ancestry DNA got my father’s maternal (East Yorkshire) and mother’s paternal line (West Cornwall) down with pinpoint accuracy when I...

I wonder, does the US have any kind of CeX equivalent or don't you really do second-hand media retail any more? I haven't been state-side in many years, but I did manage to visit all three Amoeba Music stores in California (back when the LA one was like a warehouse, it's relocated since then...

Jenrick might have lost the Tory leadership election but his wife has a bright future in “People born between 1944-1968 could be eligible for this” clickbait adverts, that’s what I thought this image was as I was scrolling down the article.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Sotsu: Episodes 7-11 I'm glad this chapter ended as well as it did, because it was starting to give me Endless Eight fatigue at times and I was beginning to become concerned over the rapidly diminishing number of episodes left. It's one thing when you're seeing the...

Oh, if only. I’d trade Davo and Karen for Gomez and Morticia any day of the week.

Zero here, I think that's the first time I haven't even heard the doorbell chime once. Though I do probably live in the sort of area you don't want your kids going out after dark.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Sotsu: Episodes 1-6 "I do in fact have time to teach you how to operate a Colt" Edition Good a night as any to make a start. As I suspected from the final episodes of Gō, Sotsu is going to be quite difficult to discuss without spoilers so I'll continue to make use of...

It really surprises me that they’re even allowed to do that, nothing against CeX particularly (I’ve made money and got bargains from them) but I would have thought cover artwork and logos (company and BBFC, PEGI etc.) were all copyrighted and reproducing them for a product you are then selling...

Oh look, it's been so long I forgot this was even happening: It is a nice set, but what makes it a little bitter-sweet (along with the long wait) is that the exact same product has been immediately made available from their store for €35 meaning I paid €40 out of my €75 pledge for a hat...

Now I understand why Limmy's attempt to simulcast his Twitch stream on YouTube only lasted a day.

As it should be, I don't particularly like to speak ill of acquaintances but I know people who put in unpaid overtime (otherwise known as slavery) at their minimum wage job because "otherwise the job wouldn't get done" and I really can't understand them. It annoys me a bit actually to think that...

You're not wrong about that @Dave1988, not enough people realise this. It's almost impossible to find visual information on this for the UK (go figure, our media is just as complicit in not letting the people in on this) but this, from the US, is one of the best illustrations I've found for how...

Well that’s my budget for about the next month blown all at once. Good investment? Bad investment? Will I ever be able to find the other volumes? Will I even want to? Who can say? I grabbed the nicely priced £6 ones from the “K” section first and then started to notice them all over the place...

Nothing wrong with the c-word, it’s a good, harsh Northern European word. I much prefer it to the clinical sounding Latin v-word or particularly the soft, childish p-word. The fact it’s considered any worse than the c-word for the male genitalia strikes me as just another form of sexism, frankly.

I notice Jerome used “freaking” a couple of times there, I think we all know what he meant since I have never ever heard a Briton use that term irl. Also you wrote the word, Ian. Is it done, are we free to arse about again?

Heh, the forum thread gives the impression Americans are not familiar with Jerome, this might be fun. Time to dust off the “days since Jerome p*ssed someone off” counter. Don’t let me down, man. Also if Jerome can write “a*se” in an ANN article I think I should be permitted to write it here...

I think in general, the answer to why a huge multinational corporation doesn’t do something is “because it wouldn’t be profitable (enough)”. I don’t have access to the figures of course, but my strong suspicion is that the majority of anime watchers now use streaming and a TV block simply...

Well those ones I didn’t buy because there was no way in Hell I could afford them also I was kinda just making a joke and didn’t actually expect a serious answer.

Hey, there must at least be enough of us for them to keep releasing it. Wait, what was the last Gundam AL released? Is the fact I didn’t buy Sneed and Build Fighters the reason they stopped, because they only sold eleven copies of those instead of the usual twelve?
