How many fucking weebs does this forum have?
Question from the peanut gallery: what about cartoons that, as a kid, I didn’t realise were technically anime?
I’m specifically thinking of Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds.

If you’re humming the opening now... You’re a weeb.

How do we get rid of them? I don't have enough rope!
Clearly, you need to join either a sailing crew or a Scouting troop for a while, and they'll teach you some efficient knots so that you can get away with a bit less rope.
Of course, since I'm one of the weebs you'd like to hang, practice macrame with, start a BDSM relationship with, or build a rope course for(your requirements aren't the clearest), maybe I shouldn't give you advice on that score...

Or Star Blazers, for that matter. I didn't learn the word "anime" until high school.

No.

My a-bit-of-everything art class in junior high had it. We did simple designs, of course, but I was in Boy Scouts by then, so I was a dab hand at tying square knots.

I'm married, so there's one data point.
But every probability curve has a far end, so maybe I'm just an outlier.

@HardwareGeek How about being an out-kneeler? Except it is a bit too cool right now so I'm going to stay inside for my own comfort.

@dkf The can kneel as well indoors as out.

Except there's not necessarily a correlation between marriage and fucking. As I am lead to believe, it trends towards the opposite...

@Tsaukpaetra You may assume that, at some point in the relationship, there was fucking. I mean, I have a kid. Whether fucking continues may be speculated upon.

Whether the kid is actually mine or not is irrelevant. If I have a kid, and I'm still married to my wife, then the kid is at least plausibly mine, which implies the presence of fucking, regardless of the actual genes in my child. (It's not a hard guarantee, of course, because maybe I'm a literal dickless liberal cuck, but it's more likely that fucking is happening than not.)

Plot twist: You have a secret twin and that is where the ‘fucking’ is happening.

@Benjamin-Hall I've seen Grave of the Fireflies, and it is utterly depressing. It touches ye heartstrings, but I am never watching it ever again. (And I, too, don't watch many things these days, but I still watch a few.)
Yeah, that's what I've heard. It's on the "really should watch once, then be so utterly scarred you never watch it again" list.
I've never watched any of these things (though I've definitely heard of the castle one) but this description reminds me of reading Death of a Saleman. Ugh.

Last Sunday, I was cutting down a tree the squirrels planted right next to my lemon tree. The ground was not soft. (Stones and lots of pokey things from the lemon tree)

@dcon You have a lemon tree? I wonder why. I wonder how.

It was here when I moved in almost 28 years ago. (Meyers Lemon) Along with an orange tree. This area was an orchard when my home was built.

There's a reason I bought some foam knee pads!

@dcon I have some, too, and they help, but not enough. Also, getting up and down is a problem.

The church of the Warthog is open to all comers. If you can’t kneel, sit. If you can’t sit, lie. If you must stand, stand. The important bit is that you don’t try.

: Honey, we've been married for a year now and we fuck a lot and it's great but... could we... would you mind... that is... I'd like to fuck you in the other hole...
: I can't believe you're asking me that! My mother warned me that all men are pigs!!!

Bring back sites using framesets, with actual navigation frames. Make that target attribute fucking mean something again.

I don't remember how the back button operated back then. Did it navigate individual frames back in the reverse order of when you clicked them? That's what I'd consider sensible.

I think so? I haven’t seen a site with honest to goodness frames in nearly 20 years though.

@Zecc I'm almost tempted to set that stuff up just to watch in amusement as Mobile Safari users go apeshit on encountering it.

It depends on if it's under active selection.... If memory serves.

I like daylight saving time.

@ixvedeusi I came to conclusion that the fact people can't agree whether to stay on the ‘summer’ or ‘winter’ time demonstrates that the changing is doing its job—limiting the tendency for events to start at later and later times.

I like when America is on it but we’re not. I get to watch Ice hockey before going to sleep which gives me more ammo to take potshots at @GuyWhoKilledBear .
Go Bruins!

Well, the Bruins don't give you too much ammo, because my Rangers have the best record in the league.
Also, ask me in the what I think of You Guys getting the President's Trophy last year and getting bounced in the first round.
