Nothing more pointless than the north-american NNTP-based anime chat-rooms.
Why? Simply because:

aleph) generally speaking, north-americans do not want to see anime with
Japanese eyes;

tau) speaking in general, north-americans are forever unable to
experience anime with *kokoro*;

that's it.

Thoughts of the day:

alpha)

Differently from what the morons are programmed to believe in, to be angry
at the world when you're 15 years old does not suck at all. What actually
sucks the dick of an elephant is when a 2-neuroned brain gets 16 years old
and its body accordingly becomes just another sonofabitch~maker.

omega)

Ethics is a very old Greek lady. Therefore she does not wear top hats,
nor neckties, nor stupid-looking jackets, nor stupid-looking trousers.
Certainly she does not like the ones who believe the ugly bourgeois suit
is an "elegant" and "everlasting" thing. Evidently, she knows very well that
the chimney-shaped hats and the most ridiculous type of neckwear ever seen
were designed by the Devil himself.

Actually, the sad fact is that most North Americans will never
experience any Japanese television beyond anime.

And Iron Chef and Banzai... ;P  Is Banzai actually from Japan or is it just an American spoof?

It's actually British, though a deliberate spoof on Japanese game shows etc.
You guys imported the concept from us. :)

   And let's not forget the horrible parody dub of "Takashi's Castle".  Or is it "Takeshi's Castle"?  I keep forgetting.

I like the old Takeshi shows where they dump girls in bikini's in tubs of
hot water to sell products...
or to see how bad the Kinki Kids are in dramatic roles.... like the
"Rookie" series.
