The Otaku Name and the Teen Titans. . .
Okay, until recently, 'da sikaurai had absolutely no idea what the word "otaku" meant. So she did some googling and located a definition of the word on her beloved Wikipedia.com. . . it came up something like this:
modern Japanese slang, an otaku refers to an overtly obsessive fan of any one particular theme, topic, or hobby. Common uses are anime otaku (one who sometimes enjoys many days of excessive anime watching with no rest) and manga otaku (a fan of Japanese graphic novels), pasokon otaku (personal computer geeks), gçmu otaku (playing video games), and otaku that are extreme fans of idols, heavily promoted singing girls. There are also tetsudô otaku (metrophiles) or gunji otaku (military geeks). . . though it can sometimes refer to any "geek," in general.
Heh. Coo'. 'da sikaurai is a geek.
At any rate, she finally got to catch the new Teen Titans movie, "Trouble In Tokyo", and she was particularly amused by the reference used in the movie. For instance, Beast Boy (Autumn's favorite titan, by the way), comes face to face with a giggling japanese girl, who points at him and goes . . . "OTAKU!", and runs away, laughing.
Beast Boy, a loveable nerd 'til the end, goes, "Suh-weet! I think she likes me!"
Don't count on it, bro. . .
Yeah, that was a pretty random post. But 'da sikaurai just had to mention it. Now, go on. Make fun of her for watching Teen Titans.
You know you wanna.
P.S.: FOR YOU SASCHA FANS, MORE SEXY PICS TO COME SOON!. . .
