Quote of the Day [11.01.08]

“You are witnessing something quite unique—a man who’s about to talk to you while he has his foot in his mouth. I made a serious mistake yesterday. I was quoted correctly. I wasn’t thinking when I said it—in fact, I was discussing foreign policy, and this was in that context. And I was just plain stupid.”

Link of the Day [8.01.08]

I saw this a few days back, but posting it now because its hilarious.

I caught both Bamboo Blade and Kimikiss Pure Rouge on Veoh by watching a fansub. A fansub is an amateur translation. They makes it easy to watch the latest anime from Japan. It also makes it easy to watch what may not make it to the States. Kimikiss just doesn’t seem to be for the American market which just wants Naruto, Bleach, or more DragonBall. The fansubbers try their best, but at times they just get things so wrong. It happens because they want to get it out quick. These are some classic unintentional (maybe) mistakes.
