^something pls... i gotta go check
there are a whole list of these 'pls' emoticons. UPDATE: Quote:
I tried to find the mega post on dA but I couldnt... Here's the link to the 'original': http://imhappyplz.deviantart.com/ you can go to the comments and look up the different accounts, all non-dA emoticons should be accounts. But be warned, there is quite a lot of spam, on average one per page of comments per account. Last edited by Konpachi; 2008-11-17 at 22:59. |

Silly question ever since I was little I've been a huge fan of the drawing style used in the Batman animated series, Superman series, Batman Beyond and Justice league series though I was wondering does the style in which it was drawn pin point to like a name of someone? Like you see it and can tell hey that's from <enter name>. Not certain how to explain it in proper words lol
edit : another silly question that has nothing to do with the one above: How do I get quicktime to work in firefox? I have quicktime (and also reinstalled it just now) but it doesn't work when I want to watch a film on internet with firefox, how do I get it to work properly? (when I play it the screen says missign plug in, then tells me its quicktime its missing and it can't automatically install it so I have to do it manually which I did again but no change) Last edited by -KarumA-; 2008-11-18 at 11:30. |

^ Hmm, I'm not sure what you're asking for.
The Batman animated series was produced by Bruce Timm, Alan Burnett and Eric Radomski. So, if you're asking whether the aesthetic style of the animated series is identifiably theirs, I can't say for sure since I'm not familiar with their body of work. If, on the other hand, you're asking whether the style has a name, then yes, I think it does. It's a mix of Art Deco and Modernism, reminiscent of the heydays of the Roaring Twenties in the United States in general, and in New York City in particular. |

Silly question:
In a certain anime, there's a little girl that goes "konnbanwa nanoha-desu" when greeting a group of her friends (all young females, but older than her, except for one older male) and "oyasumi nanoha-desu" when saying good night to that one male friend of hers. What's the "nanoha-desu" part supposed to mean? The second scenario totally left me confused. Edit: My best guess is that it's supposed to be something to change the mood of what you're saying? Like how Sunohara on Clannad After Story was saying "toilet seat" after every line to take the seriousness out of it? This is like saying, "in a little girl kind of way"?

Your speculation is correct. "nanoha-desu" (I believe) loosely translates to "I nanoha!" (emphasis implied by the context). So the phrases in english would probably sound something cute such as: "I Nanoha, say good morning to you!" and "I Nanoha, say good night to you!", or alternatively something shorter such as: "I Nanoha, greet you!".

I think the only way you can tell if it's Timm's work w/o someone simply telling you, is by looking at a muscular male character's chest and ab area (in cartoons). 'Cause it appears as if they are the only things I can find constant. Spoiler for Size:

Batman: TAS, is considered by many the best TV animated series ever, that style rely heavily on Art Deco and film noir imagery. Some of Bruce Timms works are JLU, Justice League, Batman, Batman Beyond, Superman animates series, Teen Titans; he also did Movie specials such as Batman: Mask Phantasm and Superman Doomsday, He deviated from his original art concept earlier this year by doing a joint effort with Japanenese artists by doing Batman: Gotham Knight.

Another silly question, what is this NEDM stuff?
A cat head, voice saying NEDM that interupts a original sentence and then a remix song plays. I read NEDM stands for Not even Doom music but I don't understand what it actually means, I mean why lol |

Another silly from me, but sorta serious.
Okay, if JayWalking is illegal and the person gets hit by moving traffic, and the driver is charged with injury of the pedestrians. Could the pedestrian charge the driver with injury to him? The driver isn't drunk or drugged in any way, it was a natural accident due to his vision obscured by objects.

Jaywalking (or what appears to be it) is legal and the driver can be held responsible if he doesn't even give you priority, let alone run you over, in "pedestrian areas" (sp? sorry the term may be different). These are not just any area where you walk but special areas designated under special circumstances. Vehicles are also forced to keep a very low speed limit and there the pedestrians literally own the road.

I am not sure but i think it depends on the situation ,however, jaywalking is not really a factor. If the jaywalker is walking normally in plain sight and gets knock down, the driver will still be responsible. If the person runs across a pedestrian crossing without warning, the driver could also not be held responsible. So i don't think jaywalking actually matters when a accident really happens.
Hmm i also have a question but i am not sure how to ask it. There is a stereotype high pitch laughter that japanese lady do (typically by high class, arrogant, ojou-sama types) that goes oh ho ho ho ho ho.. They will also half cover their mouth with hand while doing so. So my question is this. Is there a name for this laughter? |

In at least one state in the US I know of... if you were 1" outside of the crosswalk or the light was not in your favor... .they'll ticket you (the pedestrian) as you lay there waiting for the ambulance and high-five the driver for punishing stupidity.... well, not that last part.
Most of the West Coast of the US is really terrible about pedestrians not being required to exhibit some courtesy (or common sense) on the street or especially in parking lots (he said as the fat ass in front of his car stops to pick her nose and jabber on her cellphone). I'm very keen on pedestrian rights ... but then I also very keen on pedestrians not making a mockery of those rights ;p

Sorry about that. But when I mean location, I meant it as this would be happening in the United States, where jaywalking is mostly illegal. As of now, I don't know any states that allows jaywalking to be legal.
ugh... now I don't remember the 2nd part of the question now >.< ps: I'll try to remember it.
