Is, in fact, a villain. The comics/movies are actually presented from his warped alien mind and viewpoints, making him seem like a force of good when in actual fact he is causing harm to the universe... the "supervillains" he fights against are actually the good guys. Therefore, the entire franchise of Superman is an elaborate satire of Nietzsche's "Ubermensch" concept and eugenics.

The history of Halloween is an old ritual in which people would sacrifice their first born on this day hoping for a good harvest next year.. They would dress up like demons and animals, light a fire under a bronze statue of a man with a bulls head (Minotaur like). The fire would heat up the hands of the statue and when the hands were glowing red. They would put the baby on the hands.
The Church in their infinite wisdom decided that when this group was indoctrinated they could keep their holiday but only if they change it a little. They kept the dressing like idiots part. The candy is the 'harvest.'

Rant/explanation incoming.
The entire "Pagan" movement we had is just a bunch of hippie bullshit
most people who think that they know some "ancient ritual" are quoting either Alistair Crowley or Gerald Gardner. Both men's greatest skill was pulling shit out of their asses to get laid.
We don't know most of what the Celts did because they weren't into writing their secrets and ritual down for us, and the romans and others kept killing them off. The laughably small amount of real info we have is comprised mainly from educated guesses and looking at the few artifacts that did survive.

Most, if not all modern holidays probably have their roots somewhere in a pantheistic setting, and were modified to make it easier to convert people.
We don't really know if they converted a specific holiday, or just took multiple winter/solstice whatever holidays from difficult cultures and superglued them together.

Anime can tell a huge story. That is why there is different parts of anime. Horror, Comedy, Action....etc
Cartoons....well....it doesn't have that pull.

-Gosick
-Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood

-Samurai Champloo

Not so much an unpopular opinion than a misinformed and ignorant one, towards both anime and "cartoons". I assume you must be a "hater" of animation*, and hating an entire medium is, quite frankly, absurd.
HOWEVER, I generally hate the breed of hardcore anime fans that not only automatically think than anime is far superior to Western animation, but automatically think that anything Japanese is far superior to anything Western. You know, the type of people who probably cry themselves to sleep every night because they weren't born in Osaka, or eat ramen and pocky every single night because Naruto does. I like Japan and their culture as much as the next guy, but that level of fanboyism/Japanophilia grossly misunderstands Japanese culture and ignores a whole wealth of other great animations in the West. (Not just America and Disney, but from the likes of Britain and Russia too)

Aging Aunt Mildred was a 93-year-old woman who was particularly despondent over the recent death of her husband. She decided that she would just kill herself and join him in death.
Thinking that it would be best to get it over with quickly, she took out his old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself in the heart, since it was badly broken in the first place.
Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a vegetable and a burden to someone, she called her doctor's office to inquire as to just exactly where the heart would be on a woman. The doctor said, 'Your heart would be just below your left breast'.
Later that night........ Mildred was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound to her left knee.

animated cartoon
noun
a motion picture consisting of a sequence of drawings, each so slightly different that when filmed and run through a projector the figures seem to move.
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/animated+cartoon
The word "cartoon" holds a negative connotation - something that is one-dimensional, overly simplified/exaggerated, whimsical and geared towards kiddies. You may have read criticism before that's described something as "cartoonish", and that's basically what they're driving at.
connotation
noun

It's perfectly alright to call something like Ed, Edd and Eddy or Futuruma a cartoon. But is Dimensions of Dialogue (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhX1tvTgqC8) a cartoon? Perhaps, in a way. Is Waltz With Bashir (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylzO9vbEpPg) cartoonish? Definitely not.

The word "cartoon" holds a negative connotation - something that is one-dimensional, overly simplified/exaggerated, whimsical and geared towards kiddies. You may have read criticism before that's described something as "cartoonish", and that's basically what they're driving at.

wow, see I put in the definition I was working off of to make sure we were on the same page, I think you did it just to be a dick... which while I can def appreciate the extra effort put in there, it wasn't really needed.
See, I don't understand the issue with describing something as a cartoon if that is, by definition what it is. If you are that worried about how it is taken you could add something to it like Mature cartoon (though that makes it sound like animated porn) or Adult Cartoon (really the same issue there...) or even Well written cartoon (I think that one may work best) but I don't think abandoning the word cartoon itself is going to help any, due to it's already widespread and frequent use.
Some people prefer the term "Animation" however I personally do not, because it ties too closely into video games, or even shows that just have a ton of CG.

I'm still not completely sure what that term means, but I am fairly sure that I am guilty of it.
I see this as a way to start interesting conversations with people about points and opinions that differ from my own, Im at work all day but really don't have a lot to do, so it helps to make the day go faster

I assumed you were doing the dictionary thing to be rude too, so I apologize. Sometimes it's hard to get people's true meaning from an internet post, y'know?
I guess the issue of using "cartoon" vs. "animation" is a much more trivial point than I thought it was... whereas you don't associate "cartoon" with anything negative or condescending like I do, I really don't associate "animation" with anything like videogames or CGI like you do. (For the record, I would use "cut-scenes" and just CGI, respectively)
We're just going to have to agree to disagree on this one, I guess.

I don't bother trying to be creative with my rudeness, if I want to be a dick, I usually do it by questioning someone's parentage or calling them names. All in all I do enjoy reading your opinions, the reason I come on here instead of wasting my time in some other manner is precisely to talk to people who think differently from how I do.
In short, I like you, so no hard feelings :)

You have to post them to find out if they are popular or not. We don't know what other people think until we post it!
Postwhoring doesn't provide discussion.
Seriously, I see no point in posting a lot. Yes I have a huge number of posts but I don't care about that. What matters is the amount of thought that is placed in what I post. Also I put up Japanese matches, efed with people, talk about video games. I make sure that ideas are flowing and if it isn't I come back with more fresh ideas.
Just posting and posting doesn't provide much at all.

People are going to smoke it whether its legal or not, so it def should stay illegal. lol
Yeah, but if its sale and distribution was legalised I think people would smoke dope a lot more, and it may encourage more people to take it up.
I should probably add at this point that I generally don't like the hardcore stoner types too. And then there's the idea that it's somehow harmless, which it most certainly isn't. You can argue that it doesn't actively kill anyone like cigarettes and alcohol, but that shit definitely fucks you up psychologically in the long term.

True, tons of people would smoke it if it was legalized because they wouldn't have to worry about getting caught with it. There is absolutely nothing cool about being a stoner, it actually makes you look stupid and pathetic. If you want to smoke weed every know and then, go ahead but don't make it who you are. (if that makes sense.) I lol when people say it doesn't damage you.

INTERESTING ARTICLE FOR FURTHER READING (http://www.rotten.com/library/bio/presidents/george-w-bush/). (If you're too lazy to read this, the gist is this: Bush spent his time as President obfuscating stupidity, not only so he came off as an approachable everyman to the American public, but also so his political opponents would underestimate him.)
