4Mbit/s ------> 66.3924 USD | 25Mbit/s ------> 39.4622 USD

Dad probably won't let me upgrade though...

Here's a simple question: Why?

hanayome · « **Reply #36641 on:** September 06, 2011, 02:57:39 PM »

He doesn't like changing. I had to pursue him for a couple of years to upgrade from .256Mbit/s to 4Mbit/s at pretty much the same price...

What's this "Logged" thingy at the bottom right corner of each post?

I know that feel. Trying to tell my mum the difference between a bit and a byte and how ISP's use the two is almost impossible.

Also, it's where your IP address is located for mods and admins.

I never had a problem with changes at my home, logical solution :if it's better at the same price or cheaper, we go

I live around 4 kilometers from the beach

6 kilometers to work in the opposite direction, I can get to both with the same bus line

It's also considered the safest neighborhood around. I have everything close by, the mall, Firefighters, emergency, police. It's sometimes a loud place though but i can live with that, since I have soundproof windows

Also, met my boss's wife today, asked her why is she with him, she said she sometimes asks the same thing to herself XD

All in friendly non-lethal atmosphere

If I was being paid more I would probably have a very good life, alas, i sometimes need to take extra shift to make due

How old are you again Havoc?

Havoc10K · « **Reply #36646 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:21:48 PM »

29 sadly, too young and too short for politics

we have one shorty in politics, it's embarrassing.

I think I did mention my age someplace around 500 pages ago.

Whatever

I'm "an old guy who watches cartoons" in the eyes of most people

Doesn't bother me, Grown up people make those cartoons, beat that XD

Good thing those people don't know your obsession with Ika

(I guess). Most of my friends are pretty tolerant of me watch anime accept for one who refers to it as crazy japsh*t. So I just keep the subject away from him. Of course, none of my friends know of the figurine stowed away in my closet :X

Havoc10K · « **Reply #36648 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:30:22 PM »

I rarely talk about anime with friends.
Common topics range from music, women and sports to politics, depending on our mood, day and what the fuck happened in the world.

We like to talk about sports when our women are around, we love talking about women when they are not around XD

We all love talking about irks in our families

kurandoinu · « **Reply #36649 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:33:51 PM »

None of my friends have ever really had a problem with me watching anime. In fact a lot of them watch it themselves. I've always been good at finding these people.

Havoc10K · « **Reply #36650 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:36:43 PM »

I have a lot of friends that watch anime as well, we usually don't talk about it due to different tastes.
I can go and start bashing mech anime, while they could come and bash on Ika Musume (even though they love it as well

)

We just agreed to only talk about the shows we all watch and plot and weave theories

Dale08 · « **Reply #36651 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:40:02 PM »

You guys are lucky. I only have 2 IRL friends who also watch anime. One of them only watches Bleach while the other I don't know as well and only watches anime that aren't particularly my taste. I end up venting as much anime discussion as possible through this forum and a PM I have with this guy on another site.

kurandoinu · « **Reply #36652 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:41:37 PM »

Pretty much every one of my friends up till college has been an anime, comic or gaming fan. And a lot of them have been female too.

Fuck. I want to go see my friends now and I have nowhere to stay in Stoke since my parents moved.

Supai · « **Reply #36653 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:45:33 PM »

I have a few friends I know that watch anime. We don't really share tastes and I do not talk about it, actually, now that I think about it, we don't talk at all (well, very rarely).

Saras · « **Reply #36654 on:** September 06, 2011, 04:03:08 PM »

I do not believe anyone I know is even aware that I watch anime.

...

--sigh-- I was asking which country you live in... I did have a feeling you would answer in this way though.

The beach thing was a joke too. Well, I can see the Corniche and the buildings close to it from my terrace..

Said before. Gonna brag again. Introduced maybe a quarter of my school to anime and got them addicted too.

Havoc10K · « **Reply #36656 on:** September 06, 2011, 04:33:56 PM »

I said a number of times where I am from.

hanayome · « **Reply #36657 on:** September 06, 2011, 04:37:11 PM »

Poland I see... Who else was from there again...?
