  • (BILINGUAL JAPANESE-ENGLISH ONLY!) Could you please direct me to full list(s) of Japanese symbols (katakana, hiragana, kanji, et cetera)?

    I think that as Japanese speakers, you'd probably have a better idea of which lists on the web are more accurate than others. Also, please only choose ones that include Romaji. And make sure they are full lists.

  • Is there a way around the glitch that causes the Mirelurk Queen to not spawn at the Castle in Fallout 4?

    I am trying to complete the Minutemen quest in which you retake the Castle, but I can't "defeat all the enemies in the courtyard" if the main enemy doesn't spawn. Is there a way around this glitch? I am on XBOX One and using mods.

    Also, if this is not a known glitch or if I am just misunderstanding something, please say so!

  • Why do people not like sticky rice?

    I don't understand why people hate it when their rice clumps up so much. I honestly like that better, because a clump of rice has much more bite than a grain of rice. I really like rice pilaf, but I prefer it sticky. So what does everyone have against sticky rice? Please help me understand!

  • What is the meaning and origin of the saying, "have your cake and eat it too?"?

    I never understood this saying. I mean, it seems logical that if you have your cake then you would eat it, but this saying makes it seem like there is something wrong with that. If anybody understands this saying, tell me!

  • Why do people feel the need to be racist?

    I have noticed that things like "BLACK LIVES MATTER" and "WHITE LIVES MATTER" have been going around a lot lately, but why even state it? The only reason people make these protests is because someone got shot. Think about:

    A black man gets shot by a white man, so another black man shoots the man who shot the first black man. Then a white man shoots the black man who shot the white man who shot the first black man. Then you just continuously add on to the cycle into infinity.

    This wouldn't happen if people stopped looking at it as "someone got shot because of racism so now I need to get revenge," and begin looking at it as "someone got revenge so I need to not do the same." The whole thing is just people feeling the need to shoot someone with differently colored skin, not because of revenge, but because they can USE revenge as an excuse to get away with it. Honestly, nobody cares how much your life matters. BECAUSE IT IS COMMON SENSE THAT YOUR LIFE MATTERS. These rallies are not protests, but people looking for excuses to be racist. Yet throughout history, all racism has ever done was cause trouble, while getting along always ends so well. So why? Why do people feel the need to make a nice, racism-free day into a hell of shootings and foolish beliefs in inequality? Rather than pointing out the obvious (that lives matter), JUST STOP SHOOTING EACH OTHER!

  • Is it weird that I am - as a boy - friends with as many girls as I am with boys?

    I have as many girls for friends as I do boys, which is apparently odd. I have noticed that the only members of the opposite sex who my friends ever hang out with are their dates, and yet I have many female friends, none of whom I am dating. I have even been to their houses and to their bedrooms, but never done anything romantic. They are as much friends as the boys are. And yet, it is - as I have been told - "weird." I, personally, don't see any issue with having friends belonging to the gender opposite my own, yet I cannot shake the need to confirm the regularity of it. Hence my question, is it odd to have friends from both the X and Y genes?

    PS: Who liked my genetics joke?

  • What are a few good anime? (READ DESCRIPTION)?

    I am looking for good shounen anime with action and fantasy elements. It has to be reasonably cartoonish with your typical loud-mouthed, OP, stupid, quick-tempered, kindly main character. You know, things like "Blue Exorcist," "Twin Star Exorcists," "Fairy Tail," "Naruto," "A Certain Magical Index," etc. Also, I cannot stand things like what happened to what's-his-name from "Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works" (his body expanded and he was used in some way or another to summon the Holy Grail). The whole agonizing, torture-ish, long, painful death thing makes me physically ill (not exaggerating; I honestly stayed up all night over the toilet last time). Anyway, what are your suggestions? If it is too much, then fine, but at least try!

    Oh, and I already know about anime like "Claymore," "Berserk," and "Full Metal Alchemist." It is just that those ones freak me out. I'm squeamish, after all. Just don't ask me how I stomach the beginning of the first episode of "Twin Star Exorcists" when I am so squeamish. I just do.

    Optional extra criteria:

    - demons

    - exorcists

    - non-human main character who is raised thinking he or she is human *cough* Rin Okumura *cough*

    - set in the real, modern-day world where everyone thinks that magic isn't real, but it actually is (like in "Blue Exorcist," "Twin Star Exorcists," the "Fate" series, and "A Certain Magical Index")

  • What is the name of this book I am thinking of? It is on the tip of my tongue!?

    There's this book that takes place in the year 2171 AD (HOW DID I REMEMBER THAT BUT NOT THE TITLE?!?!) and people keep clones as slaves. The clones are modified to be dumber, and educating or freeing clones is illegal. Any freed clones and clone-slavery abolitionists are hunted down by bounty hunters and put through these paper-shredder-style robots. The main character is a girl whose twin died when they were young, but she finds out later that she is actually her deceased sister's clone, but only after her mother and her family friend are arrested and tried for abolition. There are these aliens who tell a bunch of real historical people to "end all slavery in the world," before the year 2172 (HOW AM I REMEMBERING THIS?!?). Those aliens are called "The O." Cyborgs (people with mechanical body-parts which are usually implanted as emergency life-saving equipment, kind of like pacemakers) are also discriminated against.

    I hope that is enough information for you guys to help me out... WHY DO I KNOW THE YEARS THOUGH?!?! Anyways... yeah.

  • In Dragon Ball Z, how do they bring Chiaotzu back to life a SECOND TIME?

    In Dragon Ball Z, during the fight against the Saiyans, it is clearly stated that the Dragon Balls can only bring someone back to life once. When Chiaotzu dies in that fight, Tien mourns because Chiaotzu couldn't be brought back that time. But later, he IS brought back by the Dragon Balls, even though it would be the second time. I only know this from SPOILERS since I didn't actually make it that far yet, but would you please tell me how? The bare minimum would be preferable.

  • How to get rid of "Ads by _____?"?

    I don't know what I did, but I have something mischievous running on my laptop. I find videos on YouTube (which don't work) about how to remove "Ads by Capricornus" and "Ads by Albireo." But the thing is, every time I close and open my browser, the name switches. So I don't know what to look up or how to uninstall it. So if anyone knows what this s**tty adware's name is and how to get rid of it (permanently) then tell me! PLEASE!!! It even changes my search engine and homepage every time I open up my browser!

    PS: I want up-to-date suggestions. I'm assuming that the videos were just old or something.

  • Is it bad that, as a male high-schooler, I am (in a matter of speaking) an ANTI-PERVERT? READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE ANSWERING!?

    ANSWERS FROM PEOPLE OF ANY GENDER ARE WELCOME! (I don't know who would be better to ask, that's all...)

    Okay, I know that "anti-pervert" is not a thing, but I just couldn't quite explain it any other way. Every other boy in my school is a punk. A pervert. Those guys who ogle girls' yoga pants when they walk by. I, on the other hand, would call myself the opposite. I am not shy or anything, I just don't see what they find so amusing about being perverts. I am a boy, so I am supposedly expected to be a pervert as well. I am sixteen, and puberty hasn't ended for me yet. Am I odd for NOT being a pervert? Is it odd that I don't sit at the cafeteria table and talk about the size of my classmates' busts? I would actually go far enough as to say I have a thing AGAINST perversion: rather than not being a pervert, it would be more accurate to say that I can't stand perverts! I guess I have an ABSTINENCE-DRIVE rather than a sex-drive, huh? But nonetheless, is that a bad thing? Or am I just the only good thing at my school?

    PS: Before anyone decides to answer with, "Well, you must be gay," let me tell you this: I AM NOT GAY! I support gay-marriage movements as I know gay people (my uncle included), but I am not gay. I really hate it when people say that because it is usually meant as an insult. I don't mind what others think of me--I could not care less--but using that as an insult is more insulting to gay people than it is to the person the insult is directed at. SO JUST DON'T DO IT.

  • Will GATE: Jieitai Kanochi Nite, Kaku Tatakaeri ever get an English dub?

    Okay, okay. I know that this anime might be more realistic if all the characters speak Japanese since it's ... well, you know ... set in Japan! But still, realisticness aside, I WANT TO HEAR ITAMI SAY "If this doesn't stop now, the doujinshi event will be canceled!!!" Simply because those are horrible motives for wanting to save a city. But still! Hearing him sound like and idiot IN ENGLISH would be amazing! So if anyone knows if it will ever happen, please tell me! Or if any anime-experts out there find that it MIGHT be likely, tell me that too. I WANT GATE IN ENGLISH!

    Thanks for your input!
