Tue, 14:13: It’s not that soaps NEVER advance the plot, so much as “at the last possible second, for maximum possible impact."
Tue, 14:34: In other news, banks drive me crazy. -.-

Tue, 17:08: I’m beginning to suspect that Love Hina might not be very realistic.
Tue, 17:20: “Create the art you’re passionate about!” *does that* “We meant something other than that."
