Any of you FMA fans here seen Nullmetal Alchemist? It's an abridged series for the 2003 anime, and pretty funny.

Anyway I have to figure out what to ask my bio dad for for my birthday. I really should ask him to help me finish off the Ring Cycle DVD series that he bought me two volumes of for Christmas, but I kind of want something new as well?

Here's my Amazon wishlist if anyone wants to help me. Note: He doesn't know I'm bi (and I'd prefer not to come out to him via birthday present) and he also doesn't exactly approve of my being a hedonistic agnostic.
I haven't seen it.

How much does he usually give you for your birthday?

I can usually expect him to buy me like a couple of DVDs or a few books or something. He has more money than my mom and stepdad do, so I always put more thought into what I want to ask him for since I can usually expect him to spend more.

I'm also thinking of having him get me that "music and television studies" book since TV studies are something I really want to explore as a musicologist. It was high up on my Christmas list but my mom didn't understand how to read the preference ranking thing on Amazon, so she didn't get it for me.

I'd say ask him for that, The Smile Sessions, or The L Word then.

Just a quick note, from now on, please spolier plot details of X/Y, talking about newly released Pokemon openly is fine, if you wish to spoiler it for the benefit of others, feel free to.

Thank you,

OTB Staff.

The Smile Sessions are kind of low on my list because I have the smaller version of it, with most of what would make up the "album," so I'd only want the big version for the extra bells and whistles like the poster and stuff. Or if I decide to do my masters thesis on it; it's one of many contenders but I'm not sure yet.

The L Word falls under the category of "things that would amount to coming out to my bio dad" so I don't want to go there.

Does the Redshirts book count under the forbidden category?

Ah ok. I was looking at the most expensive stuff on your list. ^^; Go for the stuff that's the highest priority then.

Yours is perfect when combined with your "You don't know me" usertitle. But if you do end up changing it someday, I like Cap’n Jack.

That reminds me, I suppose I'll put my user title back to that seeing as how I kinda went insane with the user titles near the beginning of the year and just settled with the title of a Radiohead song.

Anyway I'm starting to get in the mood to change my username, not back to GBM though, to either "Sally Bowles" or "Faye Valentine." Too bad I can't... :-(

Go Faye, go Faye, go Faye...

Not dragged. More like gently prodded.

I don't mind being probed. ;)

Oh glob. Catbug's so cute that I have to watch more episodes now.

Or this?

That one's probably my favorite so far.

Oh god. I didn't read your comment over or my type mine carefully enough. D: Now that sounds even worse.

You should watch more Adventure Time. It's less mature and adult-orientated than The Bravest Warrior (More kid-friendly probably since it's on Cartoon Network, but still has some hidden innuendos in it.) but it's still hilarious. I'm obsessed with it right now. I set my DVR up to record all the reruns they play on CN along with the new episodes. And just through watching those I've seen at least 75% of the episodes made so far already.

And afterwards they had a baby, named Newtwo.

Nice. xD

I've seen all of the first season because I bought it for a friend. I do want to watch more of it (although maybe not all at once again), but I also wanna watch it with her. So I'm thinking I'll get her the second season for her birthday.

My most previous two usernames (this one and Truth is Elusive) have both been by accident. So I feel your pains of wanting to change usernames.

You should do that. I want to get the first season on DVD.

My current username is only meant to be temporarily. As explained in this post. It's original the user name I had on Gaiaonline when I first joined in 2006. http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/f557/wh...why-do-you-use-30326/index35.html#post4695320

Buy it!...when it's on sale. That's not as bad as Pokémon 151 shirts, but that's still expensive. :/ (This one is neat too.)
I want this hoodie whenever it comes back in stock in a small.

I most likely will! :D Her birthday is in September, but we might be celebrating early depending on if she goes to Japan.
