I have no idea how the Democratic primary is going to go, but it's probably going to be kind of silly having so many candidates. Is anyone going to drop out before the first debates (I think that's in June or something like that)? I sure hope so... …

I thought I wasn't into anime as much these days, but I'm actually watching three shows this season: Mob Psycho 100 Season 2, The Promised Neverland, and JoJo Part 5 (despite not watching the other parts). Mob Psycho 100 has been better than I ex…

I just want to say that A Place Further Than the Universe is an extremely good show.

I agree that acting "high-and-mighty" is silly even if motorcyclists really should be wearing protective gear. As for driving excessively fast, I actually do think it is fair to be annoyed by that. Driving super fast unnecessarily puts other people…

Criticizing certain behaviors by some fans of a series seems alright to me. I like Friendship is Magic, but I try to stay away from most fan stuff because I do not care for fan interpretations of the series that add sexual, violent, or other "adult"…

I guess another possibility is that the changes are so minor or technical that they figure that most people would not be interested in the specifics and would just be okay with a summary of the update.

Glennmagusharvey, That aspect of the internet bugs me as well. Admittedly, I think sarcasm can be the easier option online sometimes. Being earnest and straightforward means putting your real opinions and beliefs out there for everybody to see and …

I know that plenty of people have trouble getting to sleep when they want or need it and I would not want to make light of those issues. That said, I find sleeping rather refreshing. This may be due more to a predilection for stuff that is quiet and…

To kind of go off of what glennmagusharvey said, it bugs me that there seems to be the idea that adults generally are not supposed to act goofy unless they are under the influence of alcohol or that alcohol otherwise is the catalyst for making adult…

InsanityAddict, Admittedly, I do not know much about urinal conversations, but I feel like stall talking is a just as bad if not worse practice because it intrudes upon the expectation of privacy that comes with being in a restroom stall. Also, I …

Alex, I think you make a great point about trying to see works for what they are. I do not want to criticize people who enjoy digging into works too much, since if they have fun doing that, I do not have any real problem with it. I just agree that c…

Zennistrad, I tend to agree with Stormtroper on this. The fact that your opinions may be influenced by other people is not necessarily a terrible thing and I feel like listening to people is pretty helpful in general. Also, I think it is okay to j…

Well, http://itjustbugsme.tumblr.com/ exists now, but it basically has nothing on it. If anyone is interesting in messing with the theme and such, feel free to PM me for login information.

I would tend to trust Central Avenue's judgment on that. Submitting does not require a Tumblr account anyway, so I think IJBMers who are not on Tumblr should still be able to contribute even without a separate thread. If we do end up making a primar…

Well, it looks like ijbm.tumblr.com is taken, but thankfully itjustbugsme.tumblr.com is not, so I would be inclined to go with that unless anybody objects. If we make a tumblr, it seems like we would need to decide whether we want it to be a primar…
-
Stormtroper, Huh, a Tumblr sounds interesting, although I'm not familiar enough with the site to offer ideas. I doubt making a Tumblr itself would be too difficult. We could probably either make a group blog and invite in some IJBMers who are alr…

Thanks for making this thread, I appreciate it. Are you surprised that IJBM II is still around? Yes, I suppose so, partly because it seems to be sort of normal for small forums to eventually fade away with time and there is not a lot anchoring thi…

Honestly, I kind of feel like people should never feel entitled to receive gifts or have an obligation to give them. I think that believing that one is owed a gift for an occasion like one's birthday or Christmas can end up making one less grateful…

Raydere, I think that some of the things people reblog on Tumblr are worthwhile and I am alright with following people I sort of know even if they mostly just reblog, but otherwise I pretty much agree with your approach to Tumblr. While reblogged p…

This might be going out on a limb, but I feel like Chronicles of the Going Home Club has a lot of stuff that Tropers would like. I do not mean that as a slight on Tropers or the show; the way characters in the show bring up random anime and JRPG tro…

Long Version: You are a social democratic Cosmopolitan. 12 percent of the test participators are in the same category and 95 percent are more extremist than you. Short Version: You are a Neo-Conservative. 3 percent of the test participators ar…

Bee, Actually, most of the examples that came to mind for me were college teams (e.g., the Georgia Bulldogs/Lady Bulldogs or the Tarleton State Texans/TexAnns). Given that the only high school and college teams I have seen that use these gendered na…

That letter is dreadful. I think it is depressing that someone can have such a extreme lack of respect for another person. That said, I hope its author eventually has a revelation that what she did was wrong (or at least gains a greater appreciatio…

Fourteenwings, Might. I've always believed that if it were possible for the whole world to be completely gender blind, it would simply be like removing the "masculine" and "feminine" from every activity or action or item and people would do as they …
-
I do not know enough about gender issues to really take a stance here, but I feel like one potential problem with taking a "gender-blind" approach is that it can sometimes be tricky to truly be gender neutral. To say it another way, in the spirit of…

I wish I knew the answer to that, but from what I can tell, 9 times out of 10 the phrase is meant as some kind of sarcastic quip. Perhaps asking someone next time what that person's dream is might be a good way to deal with that response. Thanks for…
