Dead or Alive

DOA is a series of fighting games. DOA1 was made using Virtua Fighter engine, the Saturn version of DOA1 is better than the Playstation version, which has no backdrops.
DOA2 is the best of the series.
DOA Volleyball is actually quite a subversive game; how many games can make boys interested in what girls wear?
It has shown many males why girls are so picky with clothes! And there are many females who are not offended by it at all, and happily play the game.
Of the DOA girls, the adorable Hitomi is in my view the prettiest, because she looks like a real girl.
If anything, the game is sexist against men; the male characters are reduced to a supporting role, and are rather dull.
The Dreamcast version of Dead Or Alive 2 is graphically superior to the rubbish PS2 version.

Hitomi is the sweetest and cutest DOA girl, and the most real.

Dead or Alive

A popular techno-dance band from the 1980's era that was much bigger than people will ever admit. Anyone who has been exposed to dance music has probably heard their most-often-remixed hit, "You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)". The lead singer for the band, Pete Burns, is amazingly effeminate, and he has recently admitted that he started a band because he already was drawing large crowds for his looks, and was inspired by Divine Brown.
That guy Morrisey? He used to get it on with Pete Burns from Dead or Alive.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
