Serial Experiments Lain 

One of the best anime to come out of Japan during the 1990s. It is not for anime fans whose main interests lie with shows with lots of action or romance. This is one of the most thought provoking shows ever, as it explores philosophical ideas such as the nature of reality, perception, solipcism and the idea of God. As usual with these types of shows, prepare for lots of philosophical exploration, psychology and several instances of mind screw. It is one of the more experimental shows to come out as it shows heavy use of surrealism and avant-garde. It also combines those philosophical and experimental ideas with those of cyberpunk. The creator and main writer of the show also went on to write other thought-provoking classics such as Texhnolyze.

Serial Experiments Lain is certainly one of the more brainy and thought-provoking anime to ever come out but prepare to be confused at certain parts of the show due to its mind screwy nature.

Serial Experiments Lain 

The Anime of ALL Anime. Former #1 winner of Japan's most Graphical and Best-Loved Animation of the year 1999 'till this very day. The four disc DVD set is a bitch to pay for, but worth the violence. The suicide, sexy mamas, and drugs prove that Serial Experiments Lain is not for the un-tampered minds. No one can prove it otherwise.

Lain Iwakura is the TRUE God of the wired and there and diddly-shit you can do about it. All preps can run home to their fucking Comic Partys and Tokyo Mew Mews.

Serial Experiments Lain 

The #1 best anime in existance. Not for the type of anime fan who prefers anime with mechas, "pretty" girls with superpowers and schoolgirl outfits, or space combat.

The only time I ever get to watch Serial Experiments Lain is on TechTV's Anime Unleashed, and TechTV isn't even on basic cable!

Serial Experiments Lain 

Serial Experiments Lain is an awesome anime series, topped only by the likes of Neon Genesis Evangelion and Spriggan. It follows the tail of Lain Iwakura, a junior high school student who receives an Email from a girl who killed herself... and it only gets weirder.

Social experiments

In Psychology and Sociology, a Social Experiment is a category of Human Research which test a human’s reaction to certain situations or event. This is typically done by having two different groups of people and have one participate in an event/program and the other react to the event/program. Over a period of hours, days, months or years, the two differing groups are monitored to see the effects and differences as a result of the experiment.

Social experiments has also been used by companies and people in order to collect data and research as a result of asking their consumers questions about a particular topic

When you feel this dead inside Social experiments and human reactions is what you live for.

Hmm... That's weird... What could she possibly have meant by that?

Hym "EXACT same story but 'Serves my God' and, therefore, is allowed to reap the benefits of his own productivity. And you don't have any power here either dumb-shit. How does that not apply to you as well? Neither does God. Your bible is horseshit and hasn't helped anyone and THAT'S CLEARLY WHAT THIS IS. THAT'S the point of the weaponized schizophrenia. Compelling people to turn to God so you aren't expected to help anyone. People are forced to just resign themselves to their fate. AND I SAID THAT EARLIER. I followed the kinetic through-line straight to Jesus and uncovered the source of weaponized schizophrenia. Cooperative non-association and shunning. Regardless of the circumstances. Because if you blame the circumstances, it's God's fault. Nothing can ever be God's fault. It could drown us all in a flood and it still wouldn't be responsible for the act of literal genocide it committed. No. It's that YOU CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO DO the thing I AM FAULTED FOR NOT DOING.

I don't care about the perpetrators against me enough, therefore, they/you are justified in the imposition of schizophrenia. You're all fucking garbage for that. You have to (on some level) know that, right? And what do you prove by doing it? Nothing. I haven't grown or learned anything from this other than why people would walk into a school and murder a bunch of kids. This is it. You ask yourself 'Why wouldn't anyone do something like that!?' This is probably in the ball park of reason number 6-8 (The goldilocks zone of reasons to shoot up a place). Probably not the number 1 reason to do it but it's top 10 at least. Number 1 is probably molestation cover up. Like, if you get molested and they cover it up, you come back years later and *KAKAKAKAKAKAKA!* Maybe I'll do a list later for top 10 reasons to shoot up a school. I actually think genuine insanity is probably lower on the list. Like 9 maybe? Now that I think about it... Yeah... I'm going to do a list."

Iam "Hey, what'd she mean by illegal experiments?"

Hym "Huh? I donno."

Experimental Internet Gas 

This is an absolutely baffling term originating from Marvel's New Warrior's comic reboot. The experimental internet gas gave a character called Screentime (a meme-obsessed teen superhero - literally) his special powers after his grandfather made the gas. This is a legit Marvel creation.

What.

"A Meme-Obsessed super teen whose brain became connected to the internet after becoming exposed to his grandfather’s “experimental internet gas.” Now he can see augmented reality and real-time maps, and can instantly Google any fact. Does this make him effectively a genius? He sure acts like it does."
