Today I went to Toronto with my boss for some training certification thing. Not only did I get to sit on my ass all day doing nothing and get payed for it, they babied the shit out of us. Gave us free refreshments and a kickass chicken lunch.
I edited tanasinn.info all fucking day.
I feel slightly unfulfilled.
Feel...

That's some dedication! It could be worse, you could be on Wikipedia and get caught up with the faggotry over there!

I have been editing Wikichan for hours without stop, I remember refreshing the Recent changes page at 3 am
I read this entire thread, and now I'm going to watch Code Geass. I hate myself.

Instead of watching Code Geass, you should read THE WORLD IS MINE. It's much more productive!
Drew a bunch of Mary Sues.
Yup.
Today I ate breakfast. I went crazy and instead of the usual two bread slices with Nutella, I ate four. I will be fat.

I've read that manga and I didn't understand half of the scenes.
It disturbs me.

Ok ok ok, I'll admit. The first volume and a half are VERY incoherent the first time you read it and it all makes a lot more sense when you've read more of the series. Shit starts getting real in volume 2, as the author goes in a more coherent direction and then after things get better and better without stopping. The reason it starts off the way it does is because it's basically dropping you in the middle of things as they begin without taking the time to give you any formal introductions and you get caught up with the chaos as it unfolds. You'll appreciate it later if you keep reading.
But the character development is amazing. Time to time, in between the main character's stories, it'll introduce you to victims before they get brutalized in an attempt to show the readers that they're just not random bystanders, but actual people with lives. The facial and emotional expressions is one of my favourite things about this comic. Toshi's mom is the best example of this. Just look at her eyes transform when they're showing her reaction to her son's violence. But keep in mind the thought of morals, what's right and wrong, and the value of life, as these are some of the recurring themes.
Gahhh. This comic is too hard to write about. It's so many things at once. You can say it bluntly, that it's a comic about two serial murderers and a giant bear causing chaos and destruction across Japan, but that doesn't do it any fucking justice. On the surface, it's just a violent killfest, just to disturb you, but it's so much more than that. I could go on and on all day about this, so I'm going to finish.
I went to work and I came home and wore my VIP STAR shirt.
So I went to Hamilton today for some training. I think I was downtown, I don't know, because this is my second time in Hamilton and last time I was on the other side of the city. All day, I sat, ate free fruit, had free refreshments and learned how to hire people all day. Basically did nothing and got payed for it. It was all too wonderful.
Two 15 minute breaks and an hour long lunch. This is what I got and was nice because I'm used to just getting a half-hour break and that's it. So when lunch time came around, I ditched my co-worker who drove me there, cashed my GST check and went exploring for a bit.
From my 40 minutes of walking around, I gathered that Hamilton is a pretty dirty city with a lot of dirty people and one way streets. You see signs and billboards all over the place for traffic ticket lawyers which wasn't surprising considering how many cars were blaring their horns from all the close calls happening.
The training was held at a hotel that was probably classy back in the late 80s, which was interconnected to a ghetto mall (a large one at that), which was interconnected to a library and a farmer's market and Lord knows what else. Beautiful people and deadbeats all shopped in harmony. I've never seen an LCBO in a mall before until then and it was pretty funny when I saw an empty bottle of wine in a bathroom stall. Homeless people don't have it this easy in Kitchener.
But yeah, I kinda like Hamilton and I wouldn't mind coming back.
