..*looks back at Shatterdragon's post and feels better about the length of this one* There's a strong fandom community in my area and social circle, and I also used to run public screenings of selected shows for my store..I'm sure I've missed a handful of titles, and I'm also not including manga I've read - just the animated stuff.

Since I'm now on sef-imposed WW therapy-addiction and - as the Betty Ford Clinic wouldn't take me - I'm forced to do cold turkey on my own, I decided it was about time I exposed myself to the substance after a 48hr abstinance, so I opened this topic.

- A very bad idea...

Logging out, steam issuing from all orifices -
