12:55pm: ZOMG Cosplaying rulez are serious bizness!
So, as we all know, the cosplay.com forums are a breeding ground for wank. This one in particular starts with HanakoWings posting a poll asking if there should be "rulez" for cosplay. The original post was apparently quite flamey (now bahleeted, boo), which apparently included some items like "no ghetto cosplay", "don't cosplay someone of another race/gender", and "post pics of bad cosplay here." This incites some isolated wank from people basically saying "cosplay = fun...no rules necessary."

FeelLikeRain sums it all up here: Why has cosplay become srs business???

Highlights of HanakoWings' responses include:
"ZOMG you should've known that I was kidding because I said 'rulez' not 'rules'!"
"Don't cosplay a 6 foot tall character if you're 4 feet tall"
Obligatory "I'm never posting here again cuz u all think I'm a bitch" rant, complete with "ZOMG I'm gunna be a psychologist, so here's my analysis of all you freaks" section.
"Why are you bitching at me if you haven't voted in the poll???"
"I'll only tell you suck on teh intarweb...never in person!"

Watch and wait for more from this mini-wank!
*headdesk*

8:16pm: Wank: the way it was meant to be seen!
In case you haven't heard, Funimation is re-releasing Dragon Ball Z on DVD in season sets. Under the tagline "The way it was meant to be seen!", they're going all out; re-mastering the footage, re-dubbing the audio for consistent voices throughout, and making Dragon Ball Z widescreen for the very first time. You might say one of these was not a popular decision.

Over at AnimeOnDVD.com back in December, one of many threads is started on the topic, in this case by FUNiRepBlue, one of Funimation's official reps on the AoD boards. She posts an FAQ detailing what's going into the new season sets, including the decision to change the aspect ratio for the release.

Reactions are mixed, with most complaining about the change, some excited about the upcoming set, and pretty much everyone settling on a "wait and see" attitude. Fast forward to last week, when the first of the new box sets began to ship.

( So *that's* what it looks like when a wank goes Super Saiyan. )

So, who's up for season 2?
