Mom: What do you want to be?

Such refined taste in one so young. We are very proud.

Man, I think you just shorted out my cutometer.

Did many people get who she was, or did they just think she was an eccentrically stylish witch?

Haha I love Kiki's delivery service. You cannot go worng with Studio Ghibli - I dig everything from the ribaldry of Lupin III to Graveyard of the Fireflies. I regard the latter as a Ghibli masterpiece.

  • Confused by our comment policy?

    We're testing a strong CC license as a form of troll repellant. Does that sound strange? Read this thread. (I know, it's long. Keep scrolling. Further. Further. Ah, there.) So basically, we figure trolls will recognize that selling coffee cups and t-shirts is the best revenge, and will keep away. If we're wrong about that, at least someone can still sell the cups and shirts. (Sigh.)
