Beasties Beast Wars' Fuzor Quickstrike and Beast Machines' technorganic toy-only Quickstrike were indeed the same character, as the latter's bio text kinda-sorta implied. How did he get from one series to the other, considering the state he was left in back on prehistoric Earth, you may ask...

I'm going from memory here, as I don't particularly care to go delving back into the records on a morning, but he attempted to post bounties on obstetricians, which attracted the attention of the FBI. When his computer was seized, they found quite a bit worse. Much worse. The fandom was...

I think we largely endeavoured to avoid talking about or getting too intimately involved in local (or at least, Planet US -- which I don't live on) politics after the whole Nixtr mess became known.

Archer's debriefing at the Tandaran prison camp did seem... awfully familiar. In an "all of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again" kind of way....

It's a strained play, true, but that setup was worthy of Callahan's.

I didn't attend Cybcon in its physical manifestations, but its mailing list was a refuge for me in the early 2000s.

It certainly puts Google's recent decision to close posting access to Usenet into perspective.... arguably where all of this all began back in the fateful aforementioned year.

I'd just like to say, as the owner of a 1987 edition Scorponok, that a re-engineered Fasttrack (whether sold as an army-builder drone or a unique character) would be nice.

I sort of figured that was coming....

Ah. With my Nikkei ex (the daughter of landed immigrants from Japan), I did do White Day, but fairly simply -- a cookies-and-white chocolate bar, for example. V-Day was the bigger event but I think she enjoyed a second reason for chocolate. So too, as it turns out, is Monika, but inviting her...

...did someone mention Danganronpa?

Per MEDdMI, the thread was initially for tec to show images of pretty women. Looking back (and accounting for differing tastes in waifu), I'm probably the one who dragged things the furthest away (what with the DDLC cosplay skits and Miley-showing-off-Japanese-culture videos and assorted...

"Can you hear me?"

I can't speak for all the readers and posters, of course, but I'd like to think that at least one (other than me) is happy that we can have discussions here, and not just eye candy. Which isn't to say one can't have both in this sort of thread.... But out of deference, I will continue to block...

While it's true that no beef marketing board ever got behind "Steak Day" (the North American equivalent, also on March 14th), the underlying attitude I inferred from online proponents of such a day seemed.... well, more upset at the economic power wielded by Feb. 14 rather than suggesting...

I'll admit that if I had lived in Japan for any length of time (as I had once wished), I very well might have been confused navigating the chocolate codes. That said, it still seemed like Japan had improved on an imported tradition -- and having it twice a year as well struck me as very nice. I...

...Definitely more appropriate than the Revenge of the Sith Valentine's cards I remember from 2006....

*cough* I'll concede that Miley is more accurately a parfait and Sayori is compared by her fandom to cinnamon buns, but did everyone forget the "Yuri making Valentine's chocolate" image a few posts ago? Well, now that it's the day....

Yeah.... but then you get Grimlock with a Burger King Crown of Command. 🙃

...I've got more than one bit, after all.
