I feel like I should write something, but I'm too damn lazy to think... Uhh... I defragmented my hard drive yesterday?

My precious YLYL thread of 876 posts got locked for going on for too long, most likely so there would be new material.
http://www.gamespot.com/pages/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=26848403&page=0 I didn't see that 57 page YLYL thread get locked, until people just started spamming. The saddest part was, that it was getting almost exclusively positive response, and I wasn't quite finished. I could have made it go past the other thread all by myself.

Well then. Last night I was at Sakura-con for the whole day. Here's pretty much what went on:
We (Me and my brothers) arrived at about 12 PM, and headed out to get registered. On the way, we heard a person shout "I JUST LOST THE GAME" followed by another 100 or so. At that point I knew it was going to be a long day. When we got to the registration line, we expected there to be only a few people registering, but we were wrong. Very very wrong. We were in line for around 3 hours, and all we could do was make fun of people. The crowd there, were the most stereotypical group of Otakus I had ever laid my eyes on, and that's saying a lot.
After getting past the god-awful registration, we headed for the food court and got pizza. The pizza there was terrible, but still the best local pizza in the entire state. >__> We then headed for the dealers' room to find some stuff and maybe some Tentacle Grape soda. We were in there for an hour, left, explored, and went back in. There I found
The guys from Penny Arcade. I couldn't talk, I could only stare in aw. After a few minutes of this, one if them, (I think Gabe) started drawing some person on the table. I had to leave in order to get back to my brothers.
We really just walked around doing nothing for the rest of the day, until one of my brothers found his friends. We all went to see karaoke, hated it, and walked around some more. Then we went to the main hall.
There, apparently there was about to be a concert going on with Hangry & Angry, and an opening band. We waited for an hour, and the opening band, Myuji started to play, in what apparently was their first US concert. Surprisingly, these guys were fantastic. The lead singer could speak perfect english, the guitarist was fantastic, the bassist was pretty good, and the drumming was above average. Then Hangry & Angry came on as the main event. This would be fine, but read their bios:
What is Hangry & Angry?
Hangry & Angry is a brand of popular Japanese designer h.NAOTO. Illustrator GASHICON draws the gurokawa (grotesque-cute)-styIe characters "Hangry" and "Angry" who came from the H44 Star Nebula in order to save the world from global warming. They arrived in the present in their time machine dubbed "LOVE MACHINE."
Name: HANGRY (who might be Hitomi ****) Apparently GS censors the last name.
Sex: Female cat
Height: 164 cm (not including hair)
Birthplace: H44 Star Nebula
* A very punk girl. Even though she looks wild and untamed, she is actually delicate and hates things that are out of order.
Name: ANGRY (who might be Rika Ishikawa) Sex: Female cat Height: 156 cm (not including hair)
Birthplace: H44 Star Nebula * A girl who loves goth and appears to be very cute, but in reality, she has a secret devilish side. She believes that people will feel the true power of her music.
I'm not making this up. It was on the event guide. Now, I'm just going to let you know, that any opinion I give on these two people is biased, because I can't tell the difference between good and bad J-Pop, I like pretty much all of it, even though I know it's bad. To be honest, I actually didn't like Hangry and Angry. I guess if your want me to explain, they really didn't do too much in the way of J-Pop, and they only had 2 good songs (One of which they played twice, which was the most bizzare things I've heard in a while. "You want an encore? Well, we'll play that same song again, kay?") Also, it seemed like Angry was very much more lively on stage than Hangry. It was really odd, because I'd never seen an opening act be much better than the headliner.
Then we just head home instead of going to a Smile.DK concert, because it turned out it was just a dance. We got home, and collapsed.

Some people just don't have opinions. Like jaydough.
jaydough must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could jaydough possibly have for not rating a single film?
