Cleeeeeeeeearly Godzilla, guys.

Guys, I have just become consciously aware of the existence of the movie King Kong vs. Godzilla, and aware for the first time of the "ambiguous" ending. WHAT THE HELL? I was going to say, "I'm sorry, but no way would Kong last five seconds against Godzilla," but then I realized there's no need to apologize, it's just common sense. It's not saying Kong's not a good fighter or a tough monkey. It's just that he isn't invincible, with atomic breath. Seriously, movie canon alone makes this one obvious, as Kong ends up taken out by puny humans whereas Godzilla only ever temporarily retreats to the water, only to later return to battle a robot version of himself from space.

COME ON.

I've also just recently been made aware of the fact that Sakurai Sho is coming to NYC at the beginning of February, and am trying to figure out if I can get off work to go see him. It seems so. . . unrealistic. XD

Also, Martin Luther King, Jr - thank you for being so amazing but also thank you for this day off, I used it to be highly productive around the house. And I wrote a Miyake Ken drabble!

Also karanguni, I got your card and it was super exciting!! Even more so than just getting any mail at my new place is exciting for me. It's still very novel. But also yay!! :D Thank you! It's sparkly, both literally and figuratively!

The second year textbook uses this debate to teach comparisons and superlatives. "Godzilla is stronger than King Kong. Godzilla is the strongest in the world." We haven't reached that page yet - should in a couple of weeks - but I've been looking forward to it since the beginning of the year.

Hahahaa, awesome. Yeah, this all came to my attention when I was reading about the rumor that the American version ended with Kong winning while the Japanese version ended with Godzilla winning. They end pretty much the same, in actuality. But really, ok, Kong is an American monster or whatever, but Americans should not be insulted if he gets his ass kicked by Godzilla. Anyone who could imagine another result simply does not know enough about the monsters!

I think you should totally get off work and go see Sho. :D He'll probably speak English and everything! XD

I think I should be able to, but my work often has quite time-sensitive responsibilities that I just can't evade. So if I need to be there that Friday afternoon, I need to be there.

I think what's the case is that I should be there and it would be better if I'm there, but I don't NEED to be there, so I might be able to get out of it. It depends on what happens. I'm waiting to hear about some details of Con registration before I talk to my boss (also today was CRAZY and I ran around and did loads so it just doesn't feel like a good day to ask to leave early. XD)

There was this nintendo game where one player played as King King and one was Godzilla, and you would go around punching in building windows. It was the best! Except I was always forced to be King Kong. It pissed me off. ):

The Sho thing will totally work out!! Somehow..

I don't know why all my friends made me be King Kong! I guess I didn't fight too hard about it. I was secretly wallowing with anger though. It's kinda like the race car situation in Monopoly (EXCEPT THE RACE CAR ACTUALLY SUCKS, AND NO ONE SHOULD WANT TO BE IT).

Yay, a roomie possibility! It's weird your cousin didn't just give them your info. Is she their personal quality control?

You found your watch!! Was is at work? Somewhere completely obvious? That's like the time I lost this crazy keychain that my high school art teacher got for me. It was on my bookbag for a month until it suddenly disappeared. Then a few weeks later I was walking home, but I took an odd way I had never taken before, and it was lying right there in the gutter. Very strange!

Ugh, MU. People have been downloading constantly! They get to it before me, even if I time everything. Stupid MU!! I WANT THAT DVD FOOTAGE. I NEED KAMISEN IN NYC. REALLY REALLY BADLY.

Awesome beans x10! In my head, you actually say "Bah, woman" in the email. XD
