Japjac's G+

The guy who called him Japfap is a hero.

Love how he's moved onto social networks from forums because it's one of the few places he hasn't been banned from (yet), that google plus page is all kinds of funny what a goldmine find LOL.

Just spotted his photo gallery

Brilliant stuff. I find it hilarious the way he talks to himself on his own forum.

Brilliant find on the g+. Japjac on politics, it may be his piece de r?sistance .

Things that make me smile.

A butchers on my way to work called "b j meats".

Makes me giggle every time I see it.

I don't think anyone would be impressed by the length of it



...as Prinny's girlfriend once said.

The width and breadth of it would be mightily impressive, however.

I dunno, I spend a day grafting hard and come home to a cussin'
I'll get FaMMydoDd to Buddha Fist your ass for that.

I can't even remember the porridge-stirring reference. The yoghurt bucket I recall, though :-)

Been listening to Angel Youth by the Last Days of April this week, blissfully unaware of the connection with the date. It dawned on me a few minutes ago and made me smile.

The trading threads being renamed to the what the seller in re4 mutters. Nice one

Technology.

Back in 2005 or so when I was first getting into watching anime fansubs I used to wish I had an ultra low power, low noise solution for consuming shows. My best solution back then was to spend ages transcoding those fansubs to mp4 to watch on my iPod Video.

Then I started buying low power CPUs for my desktop, eventually leading to the purchase of an Atom based Nettop. Then handheld devices finally caught up and made watching anime on them extremely easy.

Now? Now I can put files I got from the net onto a USB stick and play them just fine through the software that my TV has - and it isn't even a smart TV - just as long as they're not 10bit encodes. Just really really cool.

It's incredible when looking back like that.

I remember queuing multiple shows to encode for my PSP and leaving them while I did other things.

I often get Japanese-subbed Western films and copy them to our iPad for trips. Ripping DVDs brings back memories! I still remember the first time I discovered FAT32's 4GB file limit while trying to rip Bandits which I rented from the local video shop. Unfortunately I started the copy too late and had to return it before I had a chance to try again and rip it normally as 1GB VOB files(I was ripping to one large VOB and just got lucky because every film I'd tried happened to be under 4GB!).

You should be getting Japanese-dubbed Western films. They're hysterical. Die Hard was one of my favourites. Do DVDs still cost fifty thousand pounds each over there?

[randombs]

Yep! Renting is cheap, though. 100Y for two nights for anything that isn't very recent. In the past year we've only rented two recent films(Edge of Tomorrow and Lucy). A nice touch is that you can actually return films by 12pm the day after the due date so it's really three nights.

A lot of the films we've seen have Japanese dubs as well but most are ones I haven't seen before so I go for English voices with Japanese subs. I did accidentally book tickets for the Japanese dub of Gravity in the cinema. That was quite hilarious.

Gawd, Japanese Die Hard must be brilliant. Does he say Yippee Ki Yay Mazaa hakkaa?

Haheheh.

I saw the Japanese dub of Wall-E at the cinema. It was superpimp. The cinema was bull**** though. All the seats were completely horizontal, at the same level, so you had to peer through the heads of 30 Japanese people to see the screen. Idiots.
