Fullmetal alchemist
An AWESOME anime about two brothers who have seemed to lost everything but still hold on. They are named Edward Elric, The stubborn, short but older child, and Alphonse Elric,who's soul is kept inside a suit of armour. His body was sacrificed for the attempt of bringing his(and ed's, duh) mother back.
Unfortunatly, there transmutation was a failure, and the price was far to great.
The brothers are now on a search for the legendary 'Philosipher's Stone' which is said to allow you to preform alchemy without the law of equivilant exchange. With this stone, the Elric brothers want to right their wrongs and gain their full bodies back.
The anime series contains 51 episodes.

Fullmetal Alchemist
An anime ( Japanese animation) produced by Square-Enix (best known for the Final Fantasy game series) , Studio BONES (known for Cowboy Bebop and Wolf's Rain among other things) , and Aniplex.
The anime was based off the original manga by Hiromu Arakawa. However the anime and manga (at least after around episode 25 of the anime) take off on completely different storylines as wished by Arakawa herself.
Both follow along the story of two brothers (Edward and Alphonse Elric) who are alchemists, and use it as part of their every day lives. Alchemy in this series follows the law of Touka Koukan (Equivalent Exchange)- you cannot gain without sacrifice. After their father walked out on them and their mother died when they were young, they attempted to bring her back using human transmutation. Unfortunately, it failed, resulting Ed to lose a leg and Al losing his body in exchange for the attempt, and Ed to then lose his arm when he attatched Al's soul to a suit of armor. Winry Rockbell, their childhood friend, help rebuild Edward's limbs using bionics called "automail". It was not long after that Edward decided to become a State Alchemist and workf or the military, in order to gain the valuable research they needed to get their bodies back. Edward became the youngest State Alchemist of all time at the age of twelve when he performed a transmutation without a transmutation circle (a near impossible feat). During their research after Edward joined the military they came across notes of the Philosophers Stone- an alchemy amplifier that easily defies the law of Touka Koukan allowing them to gain without the sacrifice. The series continues with their search for the Stone.
Notes- Contrary to popular belief, it is not magic and has nothing to do with Harry Potter .
The anime was brought over and dubbed into English by FUNimation, a Texas-based studio. They're popular for the dubs of Dragonball Z, Yu Yu Hakusho and Fruits Basket. Currently, the series is airing on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim track.
Hiromu Arakawa's manga was brought over and translated by VIZ. The manga itself is still in progress in both countries, but you can currently find the availible translated volumes wherever you buy manga.
Since the end of the anime series (a full 51 episodes) , a movie ( FullMetal Alchemist The Movie: The Conqueror of Shamballa , can also be found with the titles Hagaren: Conqueror of Shamballa, or even Shamballa's Conqeuror ) , three RPG PS2 video games, one PS2 fighting game, two Gameboy Advance games, a Nintendo DS game, and several animated shorts have been released. You may also find soundtracks, DVDs, and other such merchandise for the show.
As far as anime goes, aside from shows like Evangelion, Gundam Seed, Bleach, Naruto, and InuYasha, FullMetal Alchemist has one of the largest anime fanbases in America.
Other names for the series are: FMA , Hagaren , Hagane no Renkinjutushi , and Full Metal Alchemist (alternate spelling).

FullMetal Alchemist
A kick ass anime show about the life of two brother, Edward and Alphonse Elric, who, after their mother died, attempted to bring her back to life. Their sacrifice to Equivalent Exchange was not great enough, so the Transmutation took Edwards leg and Alphonses body. Edward then used his right arm for material and transmuted his brotehrs soul to the armor in the corner. They now seek the legendary Philospohers stone, which allows them to pass the laws of equivalence, and get their bodies back to normal
These are some of the State Alchemists
Colonel Roy Mustang-The Flame Alchemist
Brigadier General Bask Grahn-The Iron Blood Alchemist
Edward Elric-The FullMetal Alchemist

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
REMAKE OF THE 2003 ANIME 'FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST'.
Brotherhood follows the manga (the original comic book series) storyline of Fullmetal Alchemist. 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist is one big lie and has hardly any resemblance to the real storyline ; _; Brotherhood is absolutely amazing, it's a must watch if you are interested in the manga or just want to become 'un-noobified' (i.e. you are an anime fan who bums the old series and thinks they are cool cuz you can make sense out of a series that doesn't make any sense.....).
Thank you for your time.

Guy1: "No, it's a remake. It owns the old anime."

An idiotic fan of the anime Fullmetal Alchemist (which is actually really good), however, is so insanely obsessed with it that he will diss every other show and call anyone who doesn't like FMA an idiot.

Fullmetal Alchemist
Fullmetal Alchemist is one of the best animes, and mangas I have ever seen.
Inuyasha on the other hand is a show that was good for a bit, but did it really ever end?... -_-
I think that Fullmetal Alchemist has a very nice plotline, with well... almost no filler episodes. Inuyasha... I just can't say they I like it after watching 10 episodes of it. I might like it a little more if they ended it.
To all of those Die-Hard Inuyasha Fans, why do you like it so much? I mean, it has no end, it has many filler episodes, and frankly, a really bad plot line, filled with a few holes, here and there. Fullmetal Alchemist will win in any battle against Inuyahsa... in all aspects.

Please, by all means... tell me why people like it so much!? I can understand Fullmetal Alchemist, but really... Inuyasha?

Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Utility beer
Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
