Sometimes you can see the youtube video title and length even if it's dead, so I copied the original Russian title and looked for the results that had the exact length time and similar thumbnails.

Wow -- bro, how did you ever find a replacement feed for the cheerful Russian kids' song about ghastly nuclear immolation? I tried like hell, couldn't find it!

Your recent Ghibli concert deadpool fixes were incorrect, so I called them dead again.

Thanks!

I know what you're saying about the filler episodes. Except for the brief Amigai arc they pretty much suck.

In reply to this comment by mauz15:
I watched a few episodes years ago, but then months of fillers followed so I stopped watching it. Bebop, GITS, and Monster are my favorites. Monster is long, but doesn't disappoint like other long series often do.

I also like Neon Genesis Evangelion, Ghost In The Shell, Trigun, Full Metal Alchemist, Death Note, Samurai Champloo, and Cowboy Bebop (which is probably my favorite, maybe because it had so much kickass music).

Yeah. I never thought I would be either, because I normally don't go for animes that are basically tournament fighting shows. It just grew on me. Now I check for the latest episodes every week, as well as the latest manga chapters. I'm totally fascinated by it. It's even helped me learn a tiny amount of Japanese. I also like how they incorporate Spanish words into the show with the arrancar and Hueco Mundo.

I fixed your video http://www.videosift.com/video/Rear-Window-SpoofParody-in-The-Simpsons but the dimensions messed up when saving the changes. you can correct it with this one:

(Get rid of the asterisks and replace them with a bracket at the beginning, I did it because posting the correct code embeds the video on your profile)

I did not know that! Thank you for putting an urban myth to rest in my noggin.

>> ^raverman:
This reminds me of the millions of dollars NASA spent trying to perfect a pressurized pen that would write in zero gravity on space missions.
The Russians used a pencil.


False. Both the americans and the soviets initially used pencils, but it is dangerous if a piece of graphite broke and floated around inadvertently. It could affect instruments, get into your eyes, etc. Also, a free oxygen environment makes the wood of the pencil and probably also the graphite more prone to burn or combust.

Good analogy on seeking simple solutions to a problem, but completely made up and incorrect.
