This post has absolutely nothing to do with this thread, other than the fact
that it reminded me of something .. (the subject quote led to another, and
another ..)

Here's a collection of quotes I thought you'd all enjoy.  Theme?  Nah,
just some things that made me laugh out loud .. :-)  Additions welcome.
(I'll split the blackmail money with you.)

BTW, a lot of people seem to think that the Gainax "jiggle" originated
with GUNBUSTER.  Surely any hentai worth his saltpeter can name the 
video (and character, and scene) that actually started the Gainax 
jiggle-fest ..

	"Oh, Animage.  That's not REAL animation, that's for Japanese 
	 animation freaks.  Really awful stuff -- Speed Racer with 
	 girls in bikinis .. "
			-- (Former UCB grad, now at Pixar, who denies
			    saying it ..)

	"[Meeting Johji] Manabe at Animecon shows how someone can be 
 	 even sicker than their image on paper."
			-- David Mou

	"More fun than an inflatable Madoka."
			-- Carl Horn

	"Because I'm real with this, watchin' as much as I can
	 Anime, created by the otaku of Japan
	 Over your shoulder as you choke
	 Because I was f*****g you but thinking about Madoka
	 And if you think I come at the sight--
	 You're motherf****n' right, 'cause I'm an otaku for life."
			-- Carl Horn (from "Otakuz4Life")

	"Gainax has been jiggling breasts for 10 years .. "
			-- Sonoda Ken'ichi at CapriCon '92

	"Misty [May] was an ordinary girl, but used her magic wand to 
	 transform herself into a bunny girl.  Also, since this is a
	 Gainax production, the bunny girl's breasts bounce."
			-- Anime-V, Jan. 1992, re: OTAKU NO VIDEO 1985
			   (quoted by Hitoshi Doi)
	
	"[I]n Gunbuster, Gainax invented the jiggling breasts.  In Otaku 
	 no Video, they invented...independently jiggling breasts!  Where 
	 will these otaku boys take this artform next?!  Dynamic 3D 
	 modeling, taking into account weight, density, size, and 
	 distribution?!
	"And [they say] the Japanese don't do character animation..."
			-- Bill Barnes

	"In Japanese, `mune' means both `heart' and `chest', so 
	 `Active Heart' seems especially appropriate for Gunbuster."
			-- Theresa Martin

	"[GUN SMITH CATS] is so cool!!!!!! The most uncommon point of 
	 this manga is not its setting in Chicago, but its harmonious 
	 blend of very cute girls with cold-blooded violence and sex..."
			-- Patrick Yip

	"Regarding [GUN SMITH CATS], I really enjoy Rally's ability to 
	 fight bad guys and somehow get undressed at the same time."
			-- Noel Gamboa

	This was a hentai test.  If you are reading this you are a hentai.
			-- Winston Sorfleet

	"Magazines available to boys and girls, such as Shonen Jump,
	 routinely show scenes such as monster penises ripping through 
	 people".  (Showed panel of monster peni...)
			-- "The Day the Comics Grew Up"
