So out of money and rolling into Carson on fumes this morning, I wonder how I will get home tonight without running out of gas. I come across a helpless woman who died out in the turning lane of a busy intersection. Knowing I was going to be late to school as always, I decide to turn around and help her. I pull around her and give her a jump. Leading her to a nearby Dennys, she dies out again. So then I pull out my 30-foot tow strap and hook her to it. She then leaves it in park, halting my waggy to a stop, I finally had to tell her to push the brake and put it into neutral. After pulling her to Dennys, she gives me $10. I'm jubilious right now.
A few hours later, I was crusing back to the campus for the rest of the evening. I see a couple stranded in the middle of the road. I pull my 30-footer out again, and tow them to a parking lot. They are also having trouble with a battery, so I try to give them a jump as well... They die out before leavng the paring lot. Longcat story shortbus, they give me $10 as well. What is it with cars dying out today? And me being there with my waggy.
And the best part; the old woman drove a Saturn, and the couple drove a new Dodge Durango.
So as it stands now, AMC:2 GM:0 Chrysler/Fiat:0
Having a 25-year-old truck (named after an anime character btw) towing others, and getting $20 is soo cash! :thumbsup: :fsj:

I've made Great Googley MoogleyGreat Googley MoogleyGreat Googley MoogleyGreat Googley Moogley good money pulling people out of the snow in PA this season. Save for the one time I blew my lower radiator hose it's been alot of fun. I'll probably go out tomorrow morning (we're getting a foot tonight). Between me and a buddy who has a jacked Silverado, we made about $400 during the last big snow storm. Didn't force anyone to pay us, we were just out having fun in the snow!

That has been the excuse all this time
Nobody has seen or even heard of negima

And situations that day led up to meeting them (ex. Leaving late from the house, leaving the manga section of Borders when I did.)

Probably even less than nobody has heard of FLCL, one of my personal favorites.

Nahh, not like I said. Nobody would be the numerical equivalent of zero. Less than zero would not in fact be more, which is what you appear to be alluding that less than nobody would be. Less than zero would be -N where N represents any number from 1 to infinity. Actually it would be more than that but close enough for this debate. Since we have established that less than zero is in fact less and that more than zero is actually more, we can transfer the same mathematical principal to nobody. Less than nobody is actually a negative number in relation and more than nobody would represent a positive step numerically.
So, without a doubt less than nobody would actually represent fewer people than nobody and not more people than nobody, which would be nobody +N, where N represents anywhere from 1 person to approximately 6 billion (at this particular time).
In conclusion, while I may be incorrect mathematically that fewer people have heard of FLCL than Negima, the structure of my statement is correct in that less than nobody does in fact represent fewer people.

Those were good but they were never really meant for kids. Not as good as they once were since they turned the PC editors loose on them to edit out the bits that some minority demographics might find "OH-ffensive". Still better than the self serving marketing crap they turn out these days. Most cartoons today are designed only to sell toys and/or DVDs.

Oh yeah, there's some bad stuff out there. Anything desgined to sell games is drek. Pokemon, Bakgugon (or however that crud is spelled) and the like.
Bleh, that crap you buy in most stores in the states isn't ramen. Not even most of the stuff you get in the asian markets. It's, it's, it's I don't know what but it sure isn't ramen. You haven't lived until you've set your butt down at a good ramen restaurant in Kobe and filled up. Heaven! Of course the first time I ate it in Japan I had to sit through a freakin earthquake to finish my meal. Nobody else in the place seemed too concerned so I just kept slurpin along like everyone else..
