That's harsh on the girl! Wow! She actually went to the restaurant??!

So on the topic of something a bit more...happy? I watched FMA:B when it premiered. I'm wondering why I never got around to watching the original simulcast...

 

[Organizized]

FMA: Brotherhood is awesome! I did like the first series, unlike many, but I was always a bigger fan of the manga so Brotherhood feels like the real deal, while I consider the original anime a sort of spin-off.

 

[Bugzee]

FMA: Brotherhood is a great anime! I didn't watch the previous series/version of FMA. I like the Brotherhood one a lot!

May is so cute!

 

[goldb]

I haven't gotten around to watching it yet, but I'm planning to...I really enjoy reading the manga; one of my faves.

 

[Grizz]

It's not all that, don't waste your time....

 

[Organizized]

Yes. Do.

Or/and if you don't, read the manga. You won't regret it.

 

[igotthegoods]

FMA. <3 Brotherhood has been pretty good, but if anyone is trying to decide between watching that and reading the manga, definitely go with the manga. No question.

So, anyone watching the Olympics? I'm currently watching some curling.

 

[Bugzee]

I think both the manga and anime of FMA are great!

I was watching the curling between GB & Switzerland but it's just soooo ! So I've resumed watching The Phantom Menace.

 

[vintagemistakes]

I tried to watch curling the other day. After five minutes of watching it, all I wanted to do was take a nap.

 

[Organizized]

Curling is intense!

No, really I watched a whole game, Sweden-Denmark, the other night while playing poker and it was the closest I've gotten to actually really getting into it (watching it while shuffling every few minutes), but I can't believe people actually go to watch that stuff live. I mean, I get bored after watching it on TV after 10 minutes, tops.

 

[Bugzee]

I can't believe curling is classified as a sport. It's a disgrace! I bet there's never been a fight during a curling game??

Orgz...you watched the whole game? Unbelievable! Was this when you were drunk or high? or both?

Did you loose a lot in poker? or did something happen to make up for your losses...

 

[Organizized]

No, I actually walked out of there with more money than before the game, though only about 110 kr (≈10£).

And I wasn't all that drunk, I was just not watching it all the time. Like I said, I was playing poker, so my attention wasn't towards the curling most of the time (is that even possible? )

 

[Dive]

I haven't watched any of the Olympics actually...has figure skating been played yet?

A nap is actually sounding pretty good right now. I'm not sure if it's the curling that did it to me or not. And I only had it on in the background while I was doing other stuff!

The pairs skating is done as well as the men's individual short program. Tonight is the men's long program, which I'm planning on watching.

Just got to London a few hours ago, the journey was mad! My coach was an hour delayed because of the weather, then the journey took an hour longer because of the weather aswell. In the end my journey was 4h20something mins. *sighs* man at last I'm here now, then off to Belgium tomorrow.

 

[Weapon_X]

Hehe, it's snowing in the UK! BOO YEAH! Shame most of it is all slush now

Theres a couple of shows that can always make me feel tired and are great to take a nap with. Any Discovery/National Geo show about animals is always great for that. Especially that Planet Earth series they had. It was so soothing.

However, nothing competes with the album Surfacing by Sarah McLachlan. I can't even get past 3 or 4 songs without falling asleep

Haha, yeah I know what you mean, but it's a dilemma because those shows are also really interesting. I have the same with shows about space or Egypt, I want to watch it because it interests me, but I always manage to nap away Time Warp is also good. I mean, http://www.flixxy.com/water-drop.htm doesn't this just make you wanna sleep?

Actually the only shows I usually stay awake with are Mythbusters, Dirty Jobs, Bite Me and Earth Investigated.
