View Full Version : X-Crescence CVI: Watered-Down Love
Brian Cronin

Welcome to X-Crescence, which is from the word excrescence, which is defined as "An outgrowth or enlargement, especially an abnormal one, such as a wart."
Well, this is an outgrowth from the X-Boards proper.
This is where you pretty much can post whatever you want.
Civility rules apply here! But you can have arguments and stuff like that - do note that arguments can and SHOULD be civil. One thing you definitely can't do is trash talk posters who are not in the thread, like, "Oh man, did you see what Poster X said? What a loser." You can talk generally about stuff, though - like, "Oh man, some posters are really getting me mad today," etc.
And I certainly hope folks follow the rules, because I'd hate to close it again.
Otherwise, enjoy!
-Brian

I think WBE is around so maybe now is a good time to show my story of the night!
The Mysterious Singapore Dairy Farm (http://www.spi.com.sg/haunted/dairy_farm_house/main.htm)!
I have not been to this dairy farm but the thought of walking around the area seems spooky, and the writer of the story did not seem to have answers :eek:
If it is a bad story I blame my sickness :biggrin:
Odd, if not macabre. It reminds me of the setting of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, if it was in Singapore, in a way.
Oh, and good evening. :redface:

It just got busy... I actually just watched a movie... "My Name is Bruce". We had no specimens arrive, and maintenence took care of itself, so there was enough time. Now, though, nurses have just started dropping stuff off en masse. I think I have to go for a bit.

Does the movie have any relation to Bruce Lee? He has been on my mind lately..

That makes me sad to hear.
Surely you've at least seen the Spider-Man movies. He appears in all three, as a wrestling announcer, theatre doorman, and restaurant manager respectively.
I could see you enjoying Brisco County Jr., a fun cowboy TV series from a decade or so ago.
He's most famous for the Evil Dead movies but I don't know if you're into gory horror movies with a humorous edge.
He was actually at a bar at Comic-Con last year. I was there with Uncle Nobs, starsandgarters and several other CBRians.
EDIT: Also worth seeing starring Bruce is Comic Book: The Movie about a fan obsessed with making sure the movie being made about his favorite superhero stays true to the classic version.

The travel to China from Japan is costly, more than I thought. The flight to Beijing from NRT is around 90K yen. And we also have to pay for tourist visa, hotels, travel guide.. they did not tell me exactly how much but I think it is over 150K. :eek:

Is the 173 Euros for round trip?
I understand the part of time, here it can be that way too..
When I went to Sapporo last month I had the choice of 30K yen for flight from Haneda airport or a train from Tokyo Ueno station to Sapporo for less but almost 24 hours by train!
The time can be worth more than the money! :smile:

In Japan you would be different.. but we have a lot of foreigners in the country too, not only tourists.
Japan is probably more about the cities than the natural beauty. There are some exception like Mount Fuji, Nagano in the wintertime, etc.. but you are correct, the attractions of Japan are really more in the cities.
But if you like hiking you would like Mount Fuji! :biggrin:

I'm not sure if I would ever want to visit. My friend has and he said it was beautiful. I guess I just don't understand why the Chinese would want it given it seems barren of all natural resources. Perhaps it is strategic !? I don't know.

I know when I fly I cannot stand to be coop'ed up for long. So I must pay extra in order to have space for my legs. I do not enjoy having my knees up level with my face (regardless of whatever AcesX1X told you)

I have not heard of problems in getting a tourist visa for China..
It may surprise you but China and Japan people do not get along. China, as well as much of Asia, seems to have dislike towards Japan.. I think much of it is because of the world war. My people here consider Chinese to be dirty and cheaters in business.
But I do not share the opinions, I think there is good and bad in everyone and I believe I can always get along :smile: I would like to visit China in the future.
Why do you think I have never experienced being hated? :biggrin:

I do remember a television news article about the Chinese government requesting an apology and a pay out from Japan for the invasion and widows of chinese men killed. Also something about chinese women forced to become prostitutes for the Japanese army.
It was a while ago. But I figured it might still have cultural relevance even today.

It is a sensitive subject to talk about, even today as you mention.
And not just in China, other countries as well.. Korea, Philippines, Singapore, etc
I do not have a lot of the background knowledge of it, it is not something that is broadcast in news here or taught in schools. It is a very sensitive subject to most japanese.

I think the same is true about all war crimes. The countries involved seem not to want to acknowledge it to their citizens. I think this is dangerous because if we do not know our own history we are inevitably doomed to repeat it.
I personally know that the issues with Eire, and Northern Ireland aren't really taught in the UK. I think this is a shame since the lack of knowledge is not good.
I would have thought Japan with its culture of honour would strongly want to teach this information about its past. The bad as well as the good. I find it shocking they do not.

It would be in your part of the world, but did Germany have to answer to many war crimes?
About my country, I can not really explain it. It is really the politicians and royalty that control how they repay others for the crimes during war, or not.

Germany most certainly did answer for their actions. Even today they insist that anyone who publically offends surviving victims of the 2nd WW are tried in German courts. They are seeking to have a UK bishop arrested under EU extradition agreements because he publically denied the holocaust happened.
Its so very strange that Japan would repeat its same mistake. From an outside perspective it seems its arrogance was immense when world war 2 occurred and yet its staunch refusal to accept and admit its wrongs today is a resurgence of that arrogance.
What do you think?

Maybe arrogance is not the right word.
In the mind of our country we have given apology once and that should be enough. When the other countries start to ask for more apology, more payment for war crimes, the government does not listen.. because we have already given our apology and do not want to keep apologizing.
We do admit to the wrongs, but do not wish to keep apologizing and reminding and paying for it.
I am not sure how to describe this way of thinking?

Are you a big supporter of the Dalai Lama?
I find the way they find the new Dalai Lama very odd. I watched a film once where they were looking for the reincarnation. It seemed like such a barren desolate place.
I'm not sure if I would ever want to visit. My friend has and he said it was beautiful. I guess I just don't understand why the Chinese would want it given it seems barren of all natural resources. Perhaps it is strategic !? I don't know.
What do you think Leirus ?
I dunno either... I guess it have to do with having access to central Asia. They formal excuse was to defend Tibet against the big bad West, but given that at the time they conquered Tibet there were like 6 westerns there, it does not seem too credible.
What I know is that the area is extremly beautiful. I went to the Indian part of the Himalayas last summer, and it is stunning. Sure, in a desolate sort of way, but stunning all the same...

I also require X-Factor spoilers. Remember to put in a page long preamble about how much it hurts to defy PAD.

You're right. Maybe he's secretly an Anthrax fan.
It's his own damn fault. I went there to get him an album that he swore was out, but isn't actually released until next month.

Review the one you enjoyed the most.

I'll do the X-Factor one, but if PAD wants to come lecture everyone about spoilers, he can log his own ass on and shake his finger at everyone over the net.
Even my fandom has limits, damn it.

I might do one of each. It's a lot easier to write reviews under Cronin's new rules. Good times.

You can join! You just have to stop wishing death upon Hellion. If I can stop wishing it on Surge, you can do the same thing.

Where the fuck have you been lately? You can't mention X-Factor without PAD showing up like Moses with the Ten fucking Commandments of spoilage from Mt. Sinai for the past few weeks. Did you miss that, or what?
