The New Nana Mizuki album

The New Nana Mizuki album

If you didn’t know, I run an anime blog that originally was a personal blog. Since now that site has a dedicated audience, I’m also running some ads (I stuffed some google ads and some text link ads on the footer) and affiliated with one store that I shop often–CD Japan. If people click and buy with my affiliate links to CD Japan, I get a commission (like 5-9%, depends on volume) which can be cashed out via Paypal (they pay in yen…which is good these days) or as store credit. I vouched for the latter.

Because as you all know how the economy is globally, retailers are pushing hard to get rid of wares. CD Japan is not really the cheapest place on the block for importing Japanese CDs, but they are one of the more reliable and well-serviced alternative if English is your preferred language. To compete on price, they offer a lot of random coupon things, a point program (1-5% of your purchase turns into points, and my affiliate credits are treated as points), and on top of your usual clearance and %-offs (rare as they are), they are also sales tax-free for their exports unlike most other places.

Enough about writing on ads. I am just a little happy about preording a $40 import and getting it for free effectively. Just had to pay shipping and some change.

It doesn’t surprise me but it is amusing nonetheless–

Fail

October 16th, 2008 omo

I guess it has become a part of my lexicon that I didn’t even notice its particular evocation of a relatively ambigious but nonetheless rich history and evolution of a meme. I didn’t even know it’s a meme. Unlike terms such as “pwn” or “lulz” there is nothing special about “fail.” Or at least I thought.

I guess I was wrong.

This is a good read. Even if those who are like myself and take the word for granted.

VP Debate

October 3rd, 2008 omo

This is probably the most relevant Vice Presidential debate ever, since they started to have them about 8 cycles ago.

You know Joe and Sarah are never going to give you up and let you down.

Itasha

August 31st, 2008 omo

Itasha is a Japanese slang for anime/game/manga character-decaled real cars. The word originally is a slang for Italian imported cars, but now it’s a pun for “ita” meaning “ouch” as opposed to Italy.

Here’s an itasha I ran into on my way home a few days ago:

China sucks at soccer. It is not a secret. It also sucks at baseball but unlike football, it will not get global ridicule as baseball is not a world sport.

It’s only fair, after all, to see local criticism of its joke of a home team. Chinese people are critical (just like everyone else) too. Solidarity is only a function of pride, and it’s hard to take pride of a joke that Shaolin Soccer is a truism for.
