I hate it how there are SO MANY kids shows these days that are just totally ridiculous, always the same crap like for example Pokemon concentrating around gathering these stupid creatures and making them fight on endless arenas. There's only a little bit of plot to keep it together. You should hear the Finnish dubbing, it's totally retarded. Or actually saying this offends the retards, no one wants to be compared to Finnish Pokemon voice acting. I was so exited when Pokemon came to Finland ... 1999, had to check from a site. I had read about it earlier. I was so disappointed when I noticed it's so materialistic. And what do you think about kids owning dozens of living creatures, making them live in little balls (granted that they are turned into some sort of energy) and only taking them out to fight or train. With the exception of Pikachu.
Then there are other similar series, all revolving around fighting. Digimon was different, it had an advancing plotline although when the bad guy got whacked in the end of a season, a new one would rise... but anyway, Digimon is much more entertaining than many other series.
I watched Dragon Ball Z when I was staying at my grandma and I always wanted to see what happens in the next episode even though things could drag on forever. Lately I read from wikipedia that the series is like that because the manga was still ongoing and they had to add more still shots and posing and extra story arcs to the series to buy time because the manga had to come out before the events could be shown on tv.
I used to watch a lot of cartoons when I was a kid. Not going to list them all, many of them were crappy. Better than cleaning up though, so I was glued to the screen up to lunch time. One of the best shows was Johnny Quest! That rocked. Later I was a big fan of Extreme Ghostbusters but when I was younger, I was scared by the ending music and couldn't watch it.

I hate all this drama in my life right now; all this worry and stress. It was bad enough just handling one shattering thing... why does it always seem to avalanche at once? Makes me want a frickin' gun. Hate feeling so lost. Blah. Oh well, someday things will calm down, I'm sure. Trying anyway...
And I hate ostriches! (of course, by my avatar, I hate everything.. lol But the cat is so cute.)

Gaah. Yea, Pokemon is horrible, even Japanese versions. (most anime fans know that America just stabs an anime to death by editting out important things, changing names to dumb puns and the like, turning teen shows into children shows like One Piece and Naruto, and horrible dubbing)

Ack. Tomorrow's Valentine's Day.
This means all the girls lucky enough to have boyfriends will be walking around school with their roses, teddy bears, balloons, etc...and I will be walking by with my very subtley hidden safety pin.
Gotta love the entire attitude that goes with the holiday, though. It's true. It's not okay to be single, at least not in February. Or December.
And my friends will wonder why I'm in a bad mood...
