Time for yet another instalment of wasting time 101 with games.
Ok so I bet a lot of you have played this game at one point or another but my god its just so fantastic it requires mentioning. Motherload
In this crazy addicting game you drill, and you drill a lot. the ultimate goal of the game is to make it rich and maybe fight off the ultimate evil. get the shiny gems for cash and avoid the red lava pockets we've all done it before and yet never quite to the same effectiveness as in motherload. so the next time your bored and feel like making some serious cash motherload is well worth you time.
Heli attack
This one is straight out of my childhood, (so many hours of productivity wasted).
Ok so take shooting, then put in some helicopters, and then add a dash of crazy weapons then bake for 2 hours at 350degrees. then you have a fresh batch of heli attack.
There ya have it another two games for you to play inbetween wanking sesh's
Heres a few of the lists I hastily tossed together about this previous year.... idk if they got put up on the site yet but trust me as soon as i know i'll have the links for ya.

Musically my life has been fairly interesting,as I have delved even deeper into the world of japanese music.
both vocaloid ,and the hiphop scene.
so here we go expanding your knowledge of things you thought you once knew
once again
first up we are doing the vocaloid thing,yes yes i know what your thinking.(how many robot songs can you possibly listen to mason?) well the answer is simply put as a lot.... so get used to it or get over it.
heres a few touching and punk vocaloids.
if you sit through this you may cry...i know i did
this is gumi she's got a great punk feel to most of her songs
then this video is just filled with win :)
now entering the hip hop section... which im gonna be honest with you recently ive just been listening to nujabes like nonstop. so without futher adio
more nujabes
R.I.P.
Hmmmmm This still doesnt feel like enough

Call it a lack of material or just a heaping helping of lazyness but the fact of the matter is I haven't been posting
My apologies to all of my readers
but never fear
Ive Done some research and dosing
and I think I have found my way and will start posting again
so ill see ya for a real dose tomorrow
but first i wanted to post my most recent sketch here
This is for the two of you who apparently are legit readers,
i'll do a really full post tomorrow but i felt like sharing my favorite new song with you today =)
(Picture yourself rolling around in a neon city while this is bumpin.... *brrrrr i get chills)
Let me be the first to wish you a japanese merry christmas
I actually really really freaking like this songs guitar part... the voice work isnt fantastic,
but this definitely got ME in the christmas spirit...maybe it could work for you too ^.^
Happy holidays folks!!

The complete lazer collections folks
(When the douchebag that created these comes on screen you can skip to the next one.... i have no idea how he can be so unfunny but trust me its not worth watching)

This is my last post from Vegas and I have to say its been very hospitable here... its not to hot, great food, and a plentiful amounts of hookers who really know what they're doing!!
I will surely return to this blessed city in the future.
So let us raise our cups and toast the glorious city of las vegas, May you live on forever sin city.
**WARNING THIS POST IS NOT INTENDED FOR ANYONE WITH ANY DECENCY LEFT**
*IF HOWEVER YOU LEFT YOUR DECENCY ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD YOU MAY ENJOY THIS*
<I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SAY THIS IS ALL IN GOOD FUN,SO DONT GET TO OFFENDED>
Ok so I know I Haven't talked about thatguywiththeglasses.com on this blog, but some of you more resourceful(or bored) readers may have checked out my links to "awesome sitez" at the bottom of this blog.
If you haven't then let me put it this way.... TGWTG is a collection of video bloggers who do everything from movie reviews to comic books....And games too.
(They tried to launch a Tv channel called channel awesome! ( and It may have a half life in the realm of google tv.... but more of that another time))
needless to say the site is awesome and I just recently discovered a new section.
Soooo I though I would share.
The segment title is *game fap* and features our host Master bate.(this is your first clue as to what this segment pertains to)
(cant guess?)
(really?!)
(ok then)
Master bate takes us into the world of hentai gaming.
Although all of the videos are work safe(aka all the nudity has been blurred), his color commentary is definitely not!
so those of you who shy away from f-bombs should really steer clear....
This is the first episode and I think a great place to start
*WARNING THIS VIDEO IS ACTUALLY NOT WORK SAFE*
This episode Isn't about a game its just some good cosplay
I think near the end of this video is Future ryan!! (he finally discovered time travel)
This next one is gonna be a bit of a test.... i'll either lose all of you readers or you'll think its stupid and hilarious like I do ....so without further adio (drum roll plz)
...
...
...
RAPELAY!!
( a game that has been taken off the market because of westerners downloading it and then freaking out)
Well i hope you enjoyed this ...odd posting and
I really hope to see you back for your next dose
:)

Ps. Ive added a feed for Fredarting ( megatokyo) so when he is live you can watch from the bottom of my blog
Welcome to yet another addition of music mondays, so lets just jump right in then.
Today we will be featuring those garage rock groups....you know the ones that you listened to when your body was all full up on hormones and all you wanted to do was punch something. (girls you where being scheming bitches at this point)So just to take you back to a time when hair was growing from everywhere and the world seemed out to get ya
we have the rock and roll soldiers.
^(o man this song brings back memories of rolling around town in Evans car with the stereo blaring....ahhhh goood times )^
^this was the song i stumbled on to via my whole ipod on shuffle there for sparking the theme for todays music monday ^
^and finally the balled that all of us sung(well us guys at least)^
"high school may have made me crazy
but college made it cool"
-the zen teachings of _dom
If there is one downside to the rock and roll soldiers its that every song suffers from that same garage band wall of sound ...sound.I find it really hard to listen an album comprised completely of R&R soldiers but they are a solid group and should have a home somewhere on a playlist.
Next up on reject remission...Its linkin park.
Now we all had a phase of loving these whiny rockers who only seem capable of make a song about how a women left, or about getting into fights.... but for different reasons it all spoke to us at one point or another.
Some of you may still be listing to these tracks when the lights are off and you think your alone and no one can hear you..... well Ive got news for ya....I can hear you.
^This is the only uncensored version i could find with an embed code...although i do enjoy this video mix^
This song was IT in middle school.... some how it just encapsulated everything that was going on in my life. Also i would always jam out to this back in the day when I was super into paintball.
I think five videos is enough for this music monday*reject remission edition*I had a good time digging up these old tunes from lives past and i hope you really enjoy listening to them again... or if for some reason you missed these then i hope you enjoy them now...for the first time :)
I'll see you at your next dose
_DOM
Treat
Good song, great animation
Ps. I would like to apologize to anyone who is viewing this through a mobile device that doesn't support flash ^.^
I don't have much time on my hands but For you loyal readers I'll give you a little sumthing for the ride home
Im sad to inform you that Ellegarden has split.
but two ok bands where formed from the split first theres Hiatus(vocals/guitar's band),and then Nothings carved in stone (lead guitarists band)
So take that how you will.
Todays dose we will delve deeper into the world of vocaloids and where they may be going in the future
*if you missed my first rant you may want to educate yourself here
I would like to start by presenting a Utau wiki (if you dont remember or didn't catch my first post Utau are vocaloid counter parts generally with user illustrated avatars and user created voice banks, and they're stated goal is to kill a corporate vocaloid)
if you'd like to check it out click on le link below http://utau.wikia.com/wiki/UTAU_wiki
(an interesting portion of the wiki is dedicated to deceased Utau hurr)
o why hello there miku chan... would you like me to talk about your new dance program?...yea thats right im crazy and talking to blue hair'd avatars (im no worse thenjames cameron)
Anyways,
yes hatsune miku has her own dance program/software.
its called miku miku dance and I believe its available for free to download the reason this is a big deal is that i believe it only recently came out in english...I haven't had time to mess around on it (due to slow internet speeds) but expect after I get home for another blog post on if this is worth checking out .
finally Vocaloid^3 has been announced. The wiki page reads -Vocaloid 3 has been confirmed, and is said to be aimed to be Yamaha's most "realistic voice engine yet. Preparations are being made for the launch of the software, and release is expected in the near future. Ive also found some bloggers that have done a little more research into the topic then I have vocaloid 3
Well there you have it far more vocaloid news they you could ever need
hope to see you at your next dose
Greetings from Vegas readers turns out I do have internet,
huzzaz
So in light of my present where-abouts here is some vegas related news sprint in las vegas
Now Im currently an at&t user so I can't attest to how effective the service is but g4 puts it best
*even if i do hate blair herter*
In other news I gotta tell you all vegas is super small... like the strip is only 12 blocks,
but man o man I cant wait till im 21 so I can lose all my fortune in a casino.
alright that is all I have for you today I'll see you at your next dose
wow five weeks already!
I know ive been a little lax on the daily posting lately and I apologize,
Im trying my best so please bear with me :P
Alright today we will be looked at the musical powerhouse schmoyoho (aka the gregory brothers aka the auto tune the news guys)
First we have the pop single sunny d and rum
I love this video because this is why the internet is so awesome, you can just get drunk and make a song about how much fun you have getting drunk :D
This next one is from the recent mid term election
I would like to nominate this video for best damn facial hair *
And finally this is a video thats a schmoyoho orginal but it was re-done by the swedish powerpop group roomie,
and wow did they do a number on it... if this song had a little more substance to it this could legitly be a super popular song
*o yea warning this is hella catchy and may get stuck in your head *
So thats what i have for you guys for this week.
see you at your next dose
_DOM
ps. I am going down to vegas for thanksgiving for the next two weeks and idk if i'll have internet down there but please keep checking for new posts.... and happy holidays all
Yea I stole the segment title from AOTS... get over it >.<
Anyways i find myself up at five in the morning why?(well cause I have a sleep schedule thats more fucked up then congress)
*lol congress joke*
but seriously my lack of sleep is mostly thanks in part to some damn addicting flash games!
So in order to pass the insomnia on to you
here are a few of said games. Robot unicorn attack ^now on facebook so you can compare high scores^
speaking of high...*sniff sniff ya smell that ? smells like our next little game hemp tycoon
(I assume this is a farm vill port so yall probably know what to do)
And finally something not off adult swim karoshi
(a puzzling game)>.<
Ok I hope that satisfies the mass's for now cuz ive got some berry baby to harvest
For todays musical dose Ive got a few new/old (new to you ,old to me ) techno beats.
First up we have factory by cornsandbeans which was used for a(you guessed it)factory lvl in the game castle crashers
*see description below
(castle crashers is a sweet xbox live arcade game where you as a knight embark on an epic quest to save the land from a dude that stole a flying cyrstal)
Next we have _Eve by _nBiz I found this in a boss battle for a game that was testing out how well you could match music and gaming music in motion
actually there is a lot of good thumping techno in that game ...go figure
Now lemmy just toss in something for all you non-techno heads out there,
At a resent social gathering someone made a joke that we should have a party where the entire playlist would be man man songs....ive been toying with the idea of building a massive man man set-list and just plugging it in at a party....ect ect uhhhhhh
here's some man man
I hope you found some new music to love!(or at least enjoyed the little game I linked)
and i'll see you at your next dose
_DOM
Treats
original video*
My favorite hard techno remix*
(This was done by dj shrapnel,he does speedcore renditions of anime theme songs normally :D)
I'll tell you whats wrong about belgians they freaking show this to their kids !!!
(granted I think Its suppose to teach you to bathe....but....its just so WRONG!)
Ok ok I know this is more on lvl with a treat then an actual dose but screw it I wanted my 20th post to be of a farting pig...
so sue me!
:D:D:D
So sorry folks that I missed yesterdays dose but fiver words mate's
CALL OF DUTY BLACK OPS
but ive got a big review of its multiplayer today :)
So after ten to fifteen hours of game play in the past thirty hours I think I can give all you the low down.
First off let me say this game is F-ing beautiful. Its baffling how much videogame graphics have and continue to improve,The water has accurate reflections, the dirt remains scar'ed by explosions,and glass shatters almost realistically.
Maps in this game are expansive to say the least. in an attempt to cut camping treyarch has done extensive map testing and claims that camping has now been negated,
I would disagree.
As long as we have corners in games there will be camper's that sit there shotgun at the ready, but on the whole it has been severely reduced.(well the game has only been out for two days so time will tell)
With the addition of CD (call of duty dollars) a much more streamlined online experience is available to players, no longer do you have to grind through five or six lvls for that new sniper rife. Just save up those greenbacks and boom its yours.
also a huge amount of customization has been added,there is about five or six attachments per gun,and eight or nine guns per class(smg,lmg,sniper,assault,shotgun) ,and about twelve camos from which to pick. needless to say making your class is now an in depth experience.Then when ya add in the almost limitless abouts of personal emblems/nametags your gonna be one happy camper(no pun intended)
O almost forgot about your ability to etch your personal clan tag and emblem on to your guns.
yea thats fun >.<
The game still has all of the classic game types (i.e. death match, ground war, domination) but add the new game types like wager match and the fun really begins. Wager mode is (like it sounds) a lobby where you can risk your CD for a large pay out if you can finish in the top three. This add's a sense of urgency that I find extremely enjoyable.
A few of these game modes below.
One in the chamber- in this game mode you have a pistol, three lives, and one shot.( sound fun ? it is !)Shoot someone and your rewarded with their bullet, miss and you better pray you can knife'um.
Gun Game- in this game mode you must progress through 20 levels of weapons. You go up a lvl for every kill (this means get a kill with a pistol then you have a shotgun,so on and so on)and down a lvl everytime you are knifed.It all culminates in the final kill being a balistics knife.....ugfh such a pain >.<
Sticks and stones-use your crossbow to kill mofos for points but watch out for them tomahawks cause they'll bankrupt your sorry ass.
Now Ive gotta point out a flaw...and its a pretty fucking big one, you need a pipe (internet pipe) the size of fucking siam to play this game without lag .... also the lobby systems for wager matches is horrible, treyarch either needs to release a patch or ive gotta get some more bandwidth!
but that said
Over all its a great game *****/***** on the Dom scale of excellence. If your on the fence about this game buy it! Its tons of fun and Will destroy any life you had before you bought it! also feel free to friend me on live with _Dom on the request @(The Birninator)
so you can school some noobs with me.
Todays music monday features audioslave,a hard rock "super"group that consisted of then former front man of soundgarden Chris Cornell,and former lead guitarist of rage against the machine Tom Morello.The group formed in 2001 and by there second album people began to take notice.
After three successful albums and three grammy nominations front man Chris Cornell released a statement in 2007 that the group would officially disband due to personal conflict and musical differences,But while it lasted the emotional four octave range of Cornell, and the exquisite guitar work by Morello was pure bliss.
(warning Tom morello's solos might melt your brain.....in a good way)
*omg a group big enough that they have real music videos >.<
Next we have a taste of both groups that these two artist came from,
so first we have blackhole sun by soundgarden
(same singer as audioslave)
Then we have some good ole head bangin rage against the machine
(same guitarist)
*classic
So there you have it another music monday down,I hope you learned a little something new,and found more music to love
see you at your next dose
_DOM
P.S. I would never say this to anyone who asked... but I personally put tom morello in the number one slot in my favorite guitarist list ... thats above hendrix!
but shhhhhhhhhhh $_$
(treat)
You might notice that I have added a Ustream window to the bottom of the blog, this will be your link to MOGRA.
Mogra is a small dance club based in akihabara thats streamed live over the web so dorky club rats such as myself can hang out virtually and chat about japan, anime, and music. (in the room im melange9)Mogra routinely broadcasts on fridays and weekends at about 7am our time till about noon,also it sometimes holds special events such as vocaloid release partys.
Recently Mogra just celebrated there second successful year of operation,the party was two days of nonstop music and dancing (<3 Best of luck Tenchou!)
*Tenchou is the owner / dj / website moderator of Mogra
Just in case any of you our wondering I found mogra through one of the megatokyo forums as its is kinda like a fictional club called the cave of evil from the comic, its not like I was just trolling around the web for some japanese club thats streaming :P cause that would be ridiculous.
Link to home page (*its all in japanese but chrome has a translation feature and most of you use chrome so it should'nt really be a problem*) http://club-mogra.jp/
**and to those of you still using firefox now might be the time to upgrade**
I'll see you all at you next dose... till then
GO DUCKS !
I stumbled on this sometime during this past summer,
This guy kutiman mixed a bunch of you tube videos together most of which are how to videos,but when they are all mixed they make for an interesting and pleasant listening experience.
thru-you
(My favorite track would be track 4 _Babylon band)
** sry I can't embed **
I hope you enjoy this lite dose,
and i'll see you all tonight,
or at your next dose .
Todays dose we have a little thing called Black Rock Shooter,
The phenomenon started out when an artist by the name of huke posted an illustration on his blog titled black rock shooter in december of 2007.The illustration inspired Ryo of the band -supercell (the band that first used and popularized Hatsune Miku)to write a song of the same name on their album.With the help of artist huke the black rock shooter music video became wildly popular among vocaloid,and anime fans alike...but they wanted something more,more then a 5 minute music video.In July of 2010 the black rock shooter OVA(original video animation) was released. This 50 minute anime movie helped to expand the black rock shooter universe for its numerous fans. The animation focuses on the life of two junior high girls who become friends... while at the same time, an alternate story following the BRS character is also presented.
(*for any of you non anime fans out there roughly translated im saying ...depressed junior highschool girls blossoming friendship with slight lesbian undertones/ hardcore goth bitches with massive guns and skull minions.... If that sounds intriguing...ya might want to check it out>videos below<)
The reaction to just one single drawing has be astronomical figurines,music,an ova and there is also rumblings of a black rock shooter RPG game coming out on sony japan network.... anyways i get what its all about and hope thanks to this post you have a better idea of what drives those robot/ computer gods in japan crazy.
*On a personal note I would really really enjoy a full animated series to show up
I was gonna save this dose for a monday as it pertains to music but I discovered a few vid's so i pushed it forward.
So todays dose is about vocaloid's >.< YAY A vocaloid is a singing synthesizer software financially backed by the Yamaha corporation. (those guys that make guitars)The software enables users to synthesize singing by typing in lyrics and melody then a piano interface is used so melody and the lyrics can be entered on to each note. The software can also change the stress of the pronunciations, add effects such as vibrato, or change the dynamics and tone of the voice.
Each Vocaloid is sold as "a singer in a box." One of the more successful editions of this vocaloid software is Hatsune miku who's got the same star power in some countrys as a Diva.... now you must be thinking to yourself "an animated piece of software has a huge world following? ...wow!?" But the software couldnt have found a better marketplace... you guessed it japan!
>This video is a look into how miku was created and got popular... not I repeat not a 13 minute long song:P<
*You may have to adjust the captions size
Not computery enough for you? or maybe you just want to see the dark side of vocaloids! (yes there is a sub-sect of vocaloids called UTAU and they are generaly user based sound banks with user created characters and most of the time those characters stated goal is to kill and takeover their corporate counter part)
Well then maybe you would enjoy some Sukone Tei!
As you will see most of Tei's tracks have a hard rock/tecno feel to them, rather then a melodic or pop-ish sound of other official vocaloids.
**sry the pic on this one sux but the song is catchy**
^also this is a crappy example of tei^
This is more like it ^.^
Even if these computerized girlz and they'r unatural voices don't appeal to your sense of music you could at least be happy for those of us born with robotic ears, and hearts drawn in an anime style!
First we have the band -just a band , "a kenyan somewhat experimental,DIY,geeky boy band" as they put it
The band came together on february 7th 2003 when bill's van ran over dan's foot thus allowing them to meet.then it turns out that the van has a spirit trapped in it that loves funk music....and something about a crater.... i'll just let them tell you, just a band history
Also just a band made the legendary makmende video
(makmende is a kenyan basterization of the phrase "make my day" from sudden impact)
Just a bands sweet sweet electro beats and cool makmende style makes a nice mix to listen to in the car,on your bike, or in your house, where ever good times are had,there's just a band !
Next ive just got some sweet anime intro's
I know,I know, they arn't really artist's that you can go to itunes and download but i find myself listening to these intros and outro's all the time so that's enough of a reason for me to put them up here on a music monday.
*If you do enjoy any of these
find um on youtube and make a playlist would be my suggestion
code geass's second season opener (ROCKIN)
Tank from cowboy bebop(JAZZY)
*expect an anime review featuring this anime once i get around to finishing it up *
Gurren lagann one of the best short term animes (big suprise it has a kick ass opening :D)
**again expect an anime review of this sometime this week**
Well there you have it another music monday. I know it was a little light on new artists for you to check out but give me a break ive gotta stretch music mondays on indefinitely,but still I hope you found something new to love.
and I'll see you at your next dose!
_DOM
As the title rightly implies todays dose is about the site m0ar.org
m0ar Is a site of mostly funny random flash videos from around the net. The site also employs a endlessyoutube-esk funtion.
currently the site contains over 5,000 videos. and with the easy upload features and user generated content that number is only gonna go up.
Really the easiest way to understand the site is to take about five minutes and try it out.
**(warning may lead to endless hours of net surfing)**
Here are some links to a few of my personal favorites
-Snoop
-DRIVE'IN(best freaking video! Its not a porn game like the start screen suggests)
-KA BOOM!
-Troll put in his place (ANIME STYLE)
-Just in time for german Harry/Potter
srysly I just spent about 40 minutes on the site just picking out these =P
Well there you have it, another internet watering hole for you to visit when you have that paper due!
Todays dose pertains to desu and how the world needs more of it.
0:00-1:00 Easy
1:01-2:00 Medium
2:01-3:00 Ear Damage
3:01-3:30 Brain Damage
3:31-4:17 Batshit Fucking Insane
GOD MODE: Listen to it twice, NO BREAKS
The anime this is from is Rozen Maiden
I hope you enjoy this little piece of random silliness as much i do
(I did double god mode)
Till next time i'll see you at your next dose
_DOM
So folks I apologize for missing yesterdays dose but I swear it was for a good reason!
Rock Band 3!!!!!!!
(orRB3)
This game is fantastic,it is a testament to EA devotion to polished gameplay, Downloadable content, and solid set-lists. As you well know multiple new editions of the guitar hero franchise has been released since rock band 2 and lets just say they cant even hold a candle to RB3.
Next RB3 features a new peripheral (thats a shine word for a new piece of plastic you have to buy) the keyboard , And let me be the first to tell you that it is freaking awesome to jam out on some of your favorite tunes with a keytar !!
Finally RB3 features the addition of pro mode. It enables symbols on the drums, utilizes all of the keys on the keyboard and when the new guitar is released it will function as just that a real guitar. Needlessto say I know what im asking for this christmas!
Now enough kissing ass there where some problems with this product as well.
The main web page and therefor all of the forums where down for most of today(launch day) so when everyone ran into problems connecting with the rock band networks for getting all that free dlc people had to think quick and start new forums on sites like gamestop and lets us all know that ya gotta sit on the start menu for about five minutes before you can connect to them. Also for everyone who was excited to get their rockband two DLC (dowloadable content) on to RB3 your shit out of luck folks .Rockband hasn't released a reason as to why but so far transferring your dlc won't work.(my guess is sever issue's, give it a few days)
But all that being said this is a fantastic game that destroyed my productive day and it can do the same for you
(presuming your not under the snare of fallout new-vega's )
**more on F n-v tomorrow**
See you at your next dose
_DOM
Todays dose is the first
music monday!
(or mu-mo for short) is a weekly posting of some musical artists that you should check out.
easy as that
Alright starting out in our one slot is emancipator.
emancipator's first album _soon it will be cold enough was self released in 2006 and grew a rather large world following. (for self released elctronica) soon the album was picked up by "super producer" nujabe's. the album sold 5,000 copies in japan the year following year , emancipator was also featured in the beijing olympics and played bonnaroo in 2009
emacipator ranges from electronica
to an almost folk sound with soothing guitar
regardless of what you enjoy,emancipator's got something for you to love. and with the cold steely weather looming on the horizon,I cant think of a better album to curl up with and fall asleep
(-soon it will be cold enough to build fires)
Next we have Nujabes or Jun Seba as someone put it "nujabes is the elevator music you would hear while ascending to heaven."
Nuff said
Nujabes was taken from us this past february in a car accident ... R.I.P.
there are rumors that Hydeout Productions will release his final tracks he left behind some time soon (expect and update as more info arises)
Finaly we have plaid a london electro group *you may have to go down in the comments a turn off another persons player*(stupid myspace)
these guys do fantastic OST,
particularly for tekkon kinkret
(^i have the pic in this video as one of my desktops >.<)
Plaids calm and soothing melody's are always good to chill out too!
So there you have it the first music monday, im sure most of my reader's already knew about todays artists but there are so many more to tell you about!
So
I hope ya learned a little something but if not,
Well i'll see you at your next dose
*a warning this posting is not for the feint of heart(aka people who have trouble with half naked anime girls....sry its just part of life)
Last night at about 3 am I came across this awesome site about culture in japan..... I then proceeded to waste about three hours looking at the beautiful photographs.
The blog /web page is done by a man named danny choo, who was the sr. website manager for amazon jp from 2001 to 04 then he moved on to be a project manager for microsoft. he is currently working with a company named mirai which seems to have something to do with pop-culture. Anyways enough with the stats...time for the pic's !!
The beautiful purple night sky of summer tokyo
Eating right is very important.. never forget your miku figure and your comic bag >.<
This is from one of his photo album's about food in hokkaido.....yummmm they do ramen right up there!
A local shoping arcade (its kinda like an open air mall)
O and did i mention he likes to go around and interview people about pop- culture while he is in a stormtrooper outfit :D ahhh japan
