Yes, but why the fuck would I? This is stupid. If I wanted to be miserable there are people here I could start a conversation with.

After much thought and analysis of this question, and careful assessment of the value added l have come up with a figure which, I hope, accurately reflects what is being provided:

Burnout is actually why I don't have anything published. Book 1 is done, but it's a very open ending that would likely get me lynched. So I am working on book two now. Because if I don't write well I have the motivation to, who knows when I'll drop it and for how long, and I don't want to do...

But at least they were easy to underwrite. And well the NINJA, and SISA loan were a huge part of the bubble, the I/O ARM'S (interest only adjustable rate mortgages) were the product that has likely caused the most grief. And the thing is, nothing was learned. Yeah, lenders tightened down...

Either Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind or The Vision of Escaflowne are probably the first. But Lupin the III along with Princess Mononoke are up there as well.

Fear. Fear of hunger taught us to hunt. Fear of the cold, the night and the animals taught us to wield fire. Fear of the elements taught us to build clothing and shelter. Fear of death and injury from fights for territory caused us to travel. Fear of disease and illness taught us medicine. Fear...

Vodka with a shot of Vodka. Drink I have actually made: Jokingly called 'All killer, no filler'. Shot of coffee vodka, shot of vanilla vodka, shot(or 2) of cream de cacao, shot(or 2) of bailey's. Goes down real smooth, just don't try to stand up after drinking one.

Maybe because they're creepy?

I will try to find it again but I had seen a 'Xianxia Drinking Bingo' of tropes that appear in the stories repeatedly. That one was definitely one of them (along with acupuncture cures everything). Though my personal favorite was the one where they used it to 'cure' pregnancy. Then realizing a...
