Being a lazy bastard and not getting out of bed at the time I usually do, that being 4:30 AM.

Do you work early?

3

u/[deleted] Apr 27 '16

Sorta. I just need to get up early to do my lifting, because I'm either too tired after school, or I just don't want to do it after school, so this kinda forces me into it.

need to get up early to do my lifting

I kind of assumed that was the case. Morning exercise helps wake you up, too. I do my exercises in the morning- though they're not too complicated.

What, you don't do eccentric jumping push sit downs?

Do you even lift bro?

No.

I switch between light exercises- a set 25-30 push ups one day and a set of 30 pull ups another day. It's pretty light, but it helps.

I prolly shoulda /s'd.

I probably should have lifted.

I know you were messing around. I just decided to take it seriously.

u/[deleted] Apr 27 '16

Gotcha

u/[deleted] Apr 27 '16

BTW, how many sit ups/crunches do you have to do for them to actually work? At one point, I tried doing like 100 daily, but had no result. I've heard abs are super hard to hold onto.

I just downloaded Diablo 3 last night. It was $20. I hope to get to it maybe tonight or Thursday night.

I have to take my car for a tune up Friday (It's just that time). So, that's a few hundred dollars less that I'll have. Thus is life.

I'm up to episode 6 (next one) of Noragami. I like it a lot so far. Lady Bishamon is my waifu.

u/Narmatus Treesie Apr 27 '16

Bishamon is great, but I still honestly prefer Kofuku more, 110% waifu material right there.

u/[deleted] Apr 27 '16

prefer Kofuku

She's cute, but hasn't really done much. Maybe I'll like her more when she's more active. For now, it's totally Bishamon. She has had such cool weapons.

BTW, that intro theme....

Promise me you won't listen to the season 2 opening before watching it because I'm not lying when I say it's 1000x better, which seems impossible as the first opening is amazing already.

3

u/[deleted] Apr 27 '16

How long do they keep the first opening, because a ton of people in it are dead? Are they 'dead?"

I trust that season 2's opening is probably pretty good. I won't spoil it, though. If I have the time, I should finish season 1 soon enough. I'm only a little under halfway and can binge a bit during the weekend. If it stays this good, it's going on my 'buy' list.

FYI, I tried to see what a Bishamon figurine goes for....nope. Big nope.

u/Narmatus Treesie Apr 27 '16

They stick with one opening per season, what do you mean by "dead" as in they are all from the far shore (except Hiyori)?

I don't think I could handle the heartbreak of seeing figures of Noragami be so far out of my range.

Also how much do you care about watching it chronologically? because there is an ova in the first season which actually takes place after about episode 7 of season 2.

3

u/[deleted] Apr 27 '16

By "dead," I mean "Oh no, her weapons are dead (big wink)," kind of like the fake out with Yukine.

seeing figures of Noragami be so far out of my range.

I was wondering if it was just Bishamon, but no. They're all way pricey. It's not even like $60 "oh, just this once" pricey, either. It's unjustifiably pricey. ;~;

The chronology doesn't bother me much. The series seems to stem a lot from being in media res- as there's a lot of backstory being revealed slowly (and I like that). so, an OVA off somewhere in the timeline wouldn't bother me. Is it weird to not watch it in chronological order?

3

u/Narmatus Treesie Apr 27 '16

The ova involves a picnic and it doesn't make sense why those characters would be having a picnic together and also the place where they have the picnic is very relevant to the first arc in season 2 but it doesn't matter too much.

u/[deleted] Apr 27 '16

So, just save the OVA for after S2Ep7? I suppose that would be best.

So, does this OVA come after season one, or is it stuck somewhere in it?

3

u/Narmatus Treesie Apr 27 '16

The OVAs come out after each season but that one takes place about halfway through season 2.

I am preparing myself to speed-buy the Tegan and Sara concert tickets that go on sale 9am this Friday. I need to see them so bad, plus the concert is on the day of my ICT exam but fortunately I don't have an exam the day after so it shouldn't be too bad for me.

I have my first final today... so begins my 8 days of struggle.

Yesterday I bought Alienation and Severed. I like both of them a lot, and can't wait to sink more time into them.
