Another round of "Shut The Hell Up"?Kin must love this drink. *Takes a sip.* Ack,did they have use such sour grapes?:p

You know, they made the can of "Whoop-Ass"...why not make the tall frosty mug of "Shut The Hell Up"? Of course they probably couldn't make "Haterade", simply because that's a trade-name infringement suit waiting to happen. XD

And I'm SO gonna be all over Netflix...once I get myself some plastic something drastic. XP

Well if u guys are talking about legit anime... ( which i hope guys and gals are.... )

I actually get them from a variety of place...

I get the majority from my own work... ( love getting perks like that )
not only do i special order them and get them before street Date i get a decent discount on them too... woo hoo ^_^

remember, as mentioned before... my room literally looks like an anime/video game store... if u dont believe me... I'll have to post pics of my room someday... ( now if i could only figure out how to work my digicam... =P )

other than my work... I do sometimes ranomdly find a decent deal in retail shopes like Best Buy, Fry's and sometimes during a blue moon special at Target or even Walmart ... unbeliveable but it happened at least once...

and even tho i havent done it in ages... theres TONS of anime websites all over the place... pick up a NEW-TYPE magazine and im sure you'll see an add or three...

man, i sounds like a commercial... and now back to ur scheduled bulliten board chat...  :roll:

Just did a quick count on the shelves in the living room; bottom shelf has
55 DVDs across, there's six shelves mostly full, so call it nearly 300 DVDs
most of which are from rightstuf sales.  In general, I have a $10 limit per
DVD, or $2.50 per episode rule to make sure we don't spend too much;
it's worked out pretty well, because it means we wait for the special
sales at rightstuf.com and get series for reasonable prices.   Generally,
when possible we get box sets that fit within that price requirement, as
we like the convenience of the box sets, as well as having the pretty
boxes is nice.  :)

Embarrassingly enough, we purchased our first DVD box set more than
a year before having any kind of DVD player to play it on.  When we
got our PS2, we popped the first disk in, and discovered it wasn't the
series we thought it was!  ^_^;;  Learned quickly the distinction between
"Record of Lodoss War" and "Record of Lodoss War TV"  :D

*sigh*  now if only I could learn to take more time away from work to
actually watch the DVDs.   Most are still shrink wrapped and unopened.  :(

I get most of mine from Japantown in Frisco, Japan video usually has lots of early releases, dope but if Im a Jonesin and I need a fix Ill break down and stab my wallet in the heart by going to Suncoast although theyve gradually become more reasonable with their pricing. Now and again Ill rape animenation.com
