Aren't Gon and Kilua a great source for shota material too? Really, there's a lot of Hisokas out there with their pants shining that produce weird things with them. :|

Did I mention that I find really annoying erotic fan arts when you try to find something adorable and moe (the genuine one and not with those crappy sexual innuendos)? Thanks me and my toggled option to hide +18 contenents.

Not being able to tell the gender of
I couldn't tell the gender of a coworker. There is a person who has been here for months, has kind of a Justin Beiber look, does not wear form-fitting clothes but rather long-sleeved shirts and trousers, and has an uncommon name which doesn't really provide any clarity to the issue. Keeping a mental tally of the number of times I have heard others use the feminine pronoun vs. the masculine one, by now there are significantly more votes for "she," so I guess the question is settled, but FFS... LOL

Are you trying to say that they (the creators) say this character is actually a male?

*couple weeks, and 2 more relisted auctions later*

Funny you guys should talk about anime androgyny, I was just having a convo today on another forum about several such characters in Fire Emblem. Particularly this one.

So moe.

Windows: When you're about to attach a file and click browse, scroll up the tree on the left side to get to the Desktop, and when you're about to click the Desktop item, the slow ass computer catches up to you and for some stupid reason brings the focus down to the last location's position in the same tree. I always forget this happens and never just sit and wait for the shit to happen until it's too late and I get super annoyed.

Supervisors who scold you for "always wanting the last word" when you refuse to let them arbitrarily change the subject or declare the discussion closed when they've been caught blatantly talking out of their ass.

True, but it's especially frustrating when the BS comes from a superior at work - if you're going back and forth with some schmo you can call him out on his feeble attempts at verbal jiu-jitsu without much fear of reprisal, but with a supervisor you'll wind up being disciplined for insubordination (one of the most deplorably abused words in the English language), and then have your more spineless, subservient co-workers saying "why can't you just let it go?" afterwards, which only makes it worse.

Nasty rain outside and I need to take the dog out to pee one last time before we go to bed. I use online weather radar to track the cloud movement and pinpoint when the eye of the storm is over my house. I take the dog out and sure enough the rain has subsided, so I run him to a tree and give him the pee command.

But he's not interested in peeing just yet, he wants to look for rabbits, sniff around for interesting garbage on the ground, listen for car sirens...

...and so the eye of the storm passes and we get soaked by the time his majesty decides he's ready to pee on something.
Two working class dudes, one black one white, just baked a tray of ten cookies together.

An oligarch walks in and grabs nine cookies for himself.

Then he says to the white dude "Watch out for that black dude, he wants a piece of your cookie!"

Next time, bring a water bottle and pour it on the ground. Should trigger his pee reflex.

Trying to start a business and like everybody around you, whether they are relatives, friends, bank employees, or civil servants, want you to fail miserably.

1. Got no job -> "oh please don't mention extreme unemployment, what a pitiful excuse, it's only your fault, you'll never be skilled enough (or you are too skilled) and you'll always cost too much anyway"

2. Got no welfare aid -> "why do you even ask for help you lazy assisted wannabe parasite? you've paid lots of taxes for it all those years of hard work? not my problem."

3. Want to create something by yourself for a living and put all your forces into it -> "WE WILL MURDER YOU WITH FURIOUS TAXES STORM, YOU'LL HAVE TO BEG FOR YOUR FOOD EVEN IF YOU WORK 15hrs A DAY! MWAHAHAHAHA!'

I'm not even mad, this world is just ridiculous and most people have completely lost it.

RPGs with lots of playable characters, but that have one mandatory person you can't swap out just because, meaning you can't play with a specific team of your choosing. It's one thing for party members to actually leave the party temporarily for plot reasons, but if I have eight characters in a four-party game, please don't lock one slot to a specific member. It makes it more difficult to experiment with unorthodox parties.

FF7 and FF8 do this, a large number of the Tales games arbitrarily force certain characters to be present in specific fights (Symphonia loves to shoehorn Lloyd and Sheena into battles, Vesperia forces Yuri into a number of fights).

Hey, at least Yuri is a usable, non-shitty character. The boss fight that mandated Karol is what got me to rage, especially the first try at it as I didn't have his skills/equipment/artes/etc set up. (I mean, if you're going to force me into the menu before battle to put him in the party, could you at least let me set his shit up while I'm at it?)

What bugs me more than locked slots is not being able to frequently switch characters in and out and/or unused characters not getting any exp/ap/etc. It really discourages trying other characters/teams. It's pretty nuts that 10 was the first Final Fantasy where you could use the whole party in a battle, even if not all at once. I mean, what are the other guys doing when you're not using them in the other games?

Karol is really hard to use unless you know what you're doing. Reaper Knock spam is the way to go for that fight. The problem is Karol's best abilities are all found right at the end of the game (Steel Defense is absurdly powerful and makes him a tank, his vastly upgraded healing smashes can only be learned very late game). Karol's unusual in that he kinda sucks the first time you play through, but he's amazingly good in a 2nd playthrough with his abilities carried over.
