CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

Steve wrote:1. How did you find CAA? Did you stumble on to it, or did someone point you to it?

Kae wrote:Heh...to be honest, I found CAA when I had about two weeks or so left in the Navy. I was bored one night on watch (yes, I totally goofed off on watch, I admit it) and was doing a google search (of what, I will not say). That is how I stumbled across the site. And I said, "I'd like to join, but I only have two weeks left in the Navy, so I won't." Then I came home and found out that we had internet in my house. I didn't sign up right away though, it took me a few weeks before I remembered about the site (I had forgotten).

Steve wrote:2. How many websites are you associated with at the moment?

Kae wrote:christiansupport.org is one I frequent a lot. Also I go to the Guild of Redeemed Gamers...but I haven't been there in a LONG while. I have a Livejournal as well...wonder if that counts. Oh, and I'm technically a member of Theology Web...though I haven't been there since before Christmas or so.

Steve wrote:3. What is your least fav type of thread to see

Kae wrote:I'll forego the obvious answer of anything started by a troll. Hmm...tough question. I think I'll say any threads relating to how to interpret Genesis/Revelations. I know they get locked, but it's a pain, because everyone has their own opinions on the issues, and since neither side can conclusively prove anything, it turns into petty arguments quickly.

Steve wrote:4. What is your fav type of thread to see

Kae wrote:The rare thread where everybody has an intelligent, insightful post, and everyone is very civil toward each other. Any threads related to RPGs are nice too (console or otherwise).

Steve wrote:5. Hit me with some wisdom, a quote you like

Kae wrote:Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. - Matthew 6:34

Steve wrote:6. Ok, time for the serious ones. You are being mangled by a Rhyno...you have 2 things within reach to use as a weapon. A toaster oven, and a fork. Which one do you grab...and why?

Kae wrote:The fork. If I'm lucky, I can stab the rhino's eyes out and it won't be able to find me when I run.

Steve wrote:7. Moral dilema. You are at a friends house using the bathroom...when too your horror you discover...no TP. What do you do?

Kae wrote:Yell at the top of my lungs "I'M TRAPPED!" (There is actually someone on the site who can verify this.)

Steve wrote:8. You have to kiss one captain. Kirk or Picard. Whos it gonna be?

Kae wrote:O.O
Kiss?
Uh...Picard...because uh...I could kiss the top of his head 'cuz he's bald...yeah.

Steve wrote:9. Be honost, which type of person do you most enjoy annoying in life?

Kae wrote:Hmm...definitely people that can't take a joke. If someone takes EVERYTHING they hear seriously, I have to mess with them. Also, vegetarians...not the ones doing it for health or religious reasons, the ones who do it because "Oh, I don't want to hurt the fuzzy animals."

Steve wrote:10. I heard this once before, its a good one. If you had to choose between extreme agony for 5 minutes, or slight pain over the course of your whole life each morning...which would you take and why?

Kae wrote:The latter...I'm used to waking up in slight pain every morning...and I am the kind of person who would be skeptical. I wouldn't believe that only five minutes of agony would spare me the pain of the rest of my life. So, yeah, the latter.

Steve wrote:11. If you had a chance to end world hunger by simply punching an elderly woman would you do it?

Kae wrote:I'm the kind of person that doesn't totally believe the ends justify the means...and I'm not a violent person by nature anyway. ^^]

Steve wrote:12. Death by cats, or death by falling?

Kae wrote:Falling, if it was from an enormous height. It'd be kind of fun to hit the gravitational constant. Plus, if I was lucky, I'd land on my head, snap my neck, and die instantly with no pain...I don't think that would happen with the cats.

Steve wrote:13. Ok, enough of the morbid questions. You go swimming, and you loose your trunks. Do you try staying underwater, try to hide yourself with water toys, or do you promptly annouce I AM FREE? Be specific.

Kae wrote:I don't get embarassed easily...I don't have many inhibitions, y'know? So I'd loudly announce that I was nude, and that I was leaving the water to get a towel to cover myself with. If people don't want to look, they'll turn away, and if they do, they won't...it's up to them. Doesn't matter to me.

Mangafanatic wrote:When I stumbled across CAA, it was at a time in my life when I was just about to give up manga and anime completely, because I was so tired I feeling I was the only Christian fan of anime there was on earth. More importantly, I was just fed up of trying asking other random anime fans for clean anime and manga and getting answers like "Well, have you ever seen Neon Genesis Evangelion?" As one of my last resorts, I googled in the phrase "Christian anime reviews."

*Poof!* CAA appeared.

Shatterheart wrote:2. How many websites are you associated with at the moment?

Mangafanatic wrote:Associated with? Well, right now I'm a member of probably three other boards, but I have a combined post count of, like, 100 post on all of them. Mostly, I joined them because they provided services I needed. CAA is really the only board of which I'm active member.

Shatterheart wrote:3. What is your least fav type of thread to see

Mangafanatic wrote:I have two least favorite thread types. The first is the "o.mg!!1! sumbody cum and fight over me!"/Marriage threads. I dislike them A) because they promote an internet relationship fixation and
B) they multiply. Someone makes one of those threads one evening and the next morning there's twelve of them. The second type of thread I dislike with a passion is bashing/hate threads. No matter what the topic or the annoyance, publicizing your dislike or disagreement like that won't solve it. Remember that, boys and girl. *nod nod*

Shatterheart wrote:4. What is your fav type of thread to see

Mangafanatic wrote:My favorite type of thread would probably be any Fruits Basket discussion thread (Yes, I'm a junkie) or threads where everybody shares what they like about other members. Those are so fun.

Shatterheart wrote:5. Hit me with some wisdom, a quote you like

Mangafanatic wrote:Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no effect on society. And it's so true..

Shatterheart wrote:6. What nicknames are you known by online?

Mangafanatic wrote:I have a lot of nicknames, but the only one of them is officially approve is Osaka[-chan].

Shatterheart wrote:7. I must say, you are one of the more under-rated members on CAA...in a few thoughts, what would you like to say to the entire site?

Mangafanatic wrote:I'd like to say that you're entirely correct, Steve. I am SOOOO under-rated. Come on, people. Appreciate me!

Just kidding.

Joking aside, what I'd like to say to the whole site is that I really appreciate everybody here. I know it sounds so typical and fake, but you guys really mean so much to me. I once though "What would I do if everybody on CAA quit?" I concluded, quite honestly, that I'd just cry. You guys are the best, and I know you're all a gift God gave me when I needed you all the most.

Shatterheart wrote:8. Your friend asks you if somthing there wearing looks good. It is absoluly horrific. Its like fashion upchucked on them. Do you tell them it looks good anyway? Or are you honost? Be honost in your answer or Kaemmerite will release my Ghandi-bot to track you down. Don't question it.

Mangafanatic wrote:answer this question only for fear of the all-powerful Ghandi-bot! *dons garlic and finds large steak, unaware that neither could protect her from the fearful Ghandi-bot.*

I think I'd probably say "I don't exactly think, and it's definitely noy the best thing I've ever seen you in. We can definitely find something better for you to wear. Like. . . a shag carpet." I probably wouldn't say the thing about the shag carpet. But I'd be thinking it. . .

Shatterheart wrote:9. You can do any practical joke to any of the staffers on CAA, which one do you pick...and what practical joke do you do?

Mangafanatic wrote:If I could prank any staffer. It would DEFINITELY be Steve. I've never totally forgiven him for his "I'm leaving" April fool's joke. *shakes fist* Makin' girls cry. . . It's just so low.

Maybe the prank would be a long rant hate post, saying that I'd decided to leave the board due to the rampant sin in the lives of the authority-- the problem having become blatantly obvious to me by Steve's decision to cut his hair. And then I'd act all indignant and not sign in for a couple days-- just to scare people. Unfortunately, it wouldn't work, because, before anyone even had time to see the thread, I'd start feeling guilty and edit my rant prank. After this redaction it would read: "Never mind. This was a stupid idea. Someone, can, um, close this if it's not too much trouble. . ."

Shatterheart wrote:10.(Taken from a YIM Chatter named Indy)What would you do if you were in a cage of bears and all you had to defend yourself with was a twinky?

Mangafanatic wrote:Easy. I'd divide the twinky into four parts. The first part I'd give to the bears, in hopes of gaining their friendship and disuading them from eating me. If this failed, I'd make an altar to the Lord using the twinky wrapped and whatever jewelry I was wearing. On this altar, I would offer two pieces of the twinky as I prayed for deliverance. If, after that, the Lord chose to still allow the bears to attack me, I'd eat the last part of the twinky and die a happy woman.

Shatterheart wrote:11.FORLF. What does it mean to you? Be specific.

Mangafanatic wrote: Frankly, Osaka really like fudge. Specifically, I like chocolate fudge. But I'm not that picky.

Shatterheart wrote:12. (Submitted by Spike)You are in a fist fight with a disney character. Which one is it, and what is the outcome of the fight?

Mangafanatic wrote:I think I'd probably get in a fist fight with Maid Marion from Robin Hood 'cause I had a serious crush on the Disney Robin Hood when I was a kid. Unfortunately, we'd never really know the outcome of the fight, because I'd definitely run away before she got a punch in. Odds are, though, if I played fair-- she'd win. Which isn't much incentive for me to fight fair now, is it?

Shatterheart wrote:Now, a question from my asst. Kae. 13. If a turtle doesn't have a shell, is he homeless or naked?

Shatterheart wrote:1. How did you find CAA? Did you stumble on to it, or did someone point you to it?

Zilch wrote: Actually, when I frist joined CAA, it wasn't big enough to be tripped over, so I kinda stepped on it...but that's beside the point. My sister was one of the first 15 or so members of the OLD MSN Groups board back three years ago. She had me join (under the tag Zell Dincht) and the rest is psuedo-history.

Shatterheart wrote:9. While walking down the street, a Nun stops you...and cusses you out. What do you say?

Zilch wrote:I would probably kneel get all weepy and act like she was saying something profound, throwing in the occasional "That's right, sister, I will take my &*^ self and **^&ing and get out of your &**%ing way before you throw holy *&^& on me! Amen!

Shatterheart wrote:10. While playing a game online with a family member (sister) she gets you killed. When you get back in, what is your first reaction?

Zilch wrote:First, I distract her with the old Barq's-on-a-string trick, then I pull her controller out, pull up a sniper rifle, and no-scope her at point blank, whether or not she's on my team.

This one, the fora at Shining Force Central, two blogs and my name appears somewhere on a UCSD Bio webpage.

Shatterheart wrote:3. What is your least fav type of thread to see?

My gawsh, if I could get a Ph.D. on Internet Forum Studies, I could write my dissertation on my least favorite thread types. You'll have to constantly update my answer for this. Let's see--There are far too many threads that involve Inuyasha. For some reason, threads asking about Japanese culture irritate me. Also, I don't like "People you like/admire/encourage someone" threads. They tend to be too exclusionary. And waaaaaaaaaaay too lopsided in favor of the mods

Shatterheart wrote:4. Having that being said, what is your fav type of thread to see?

Simple. Threads that I make that generate a lot of replies/anxiety over why I haven't updated in over a month.

Shatterheart wrote:7.Ok, classic question. Ability to fly, or a tail?

I know it may irritate you if I try to compromise, so I won't. Flight would be nice, but if I had a tail, I could convince pasty white DBZ fanbois the country over that I am a Saiyan and then they would worship me. But... naw, forget I said that. Idol worship is bad. I once caught a guy offering food to a statue of Ganesh. I kicked him in the posterior, then I ate his liver with some fava beans and a light chianti *schschschsch*
