What is Gurren Lagann? I'm not going to give a summary -- that's what Gurren Lagann is ABOUT. I'm gonna tell you what it actually is:
Once upon a time, there were three gods: Spectacle, Bombast, and Boobage. These gods were the absolute best of friends, inseparable from the beginning of their existence. But their explosive personalities resonated and compounded beyond limit every time they decided to have a wild adventure.
One night, these three gods decided to get drunk from an alcoholic concoction fermented from a mixture of testosterone, napalm, and concentrated pigmole blood. The result was a fantastic orgy that rivaled even the wildest of Dionysian parties in all of mythology.
As the three gods shrugged off their inhibitions, the night became hazy as they struggled to satisfy their bestial, sexual urges with the help of pleasurable company. Their seed burst forth from their loins, mixing as it flowed in a spiral pattern, and this divine essence impregnated the brain of a Mr. Kazuki Nakashima.
Nine months later, the entity in Nakashima's brain was delivered at Gainax hospital, after three hundred hours of agonizing labor. The newborn anime was christened: Gurren Lagann.

Reputational laundering often comes in the form of Corporate Social Responsibility, where a relatively trivial sum of profits are donated by the corporation to fund socially oriented activities in order to suggest that the corporation is socially responsible.
An example, often sited, would be major oil companies giving charitable funds to communities in the Nigeria Delta whose original livelihoods they were implicit in destroying through the extraction of crude oil.
However the practice of reputational laundering is by no means exclusive to corporations. Many morally bankrupt individuals donate money to charity in order that they are seen to care about social or environmental issues. As an added benefit to their undeservedly improved public image they also enjoy significant tax breaks on their donations.

Given that it has just paid record fines for insider trading, PJ Gorman’s effort to support a youth programme in the inner city is little more than reputational laundering.

Get the reputational laundering mug.An amazing and talented Gothic Metal band. One of the few Gothic Metal bands with mainstream success in America. They have two vocalists: Cristina Scabbia and Andrea Ferro. Cristina has an amazing and haunting voice. She is also considered to be one of the hottest chicks in metal. Andrea Ferro is sometimes hated by many people, but I think his voice fits perfectly in the songs on Comalies. It brings a much different sound to the songs.
