self-mutilation

Hurting yourself in any way at all. Remarkably similar to eating disorders and substance abuse. Can be a cry for attention, a type of self-punishment or just a way of letting out frustration and depression. No matter what the form or reason, this is a disease and a serious, widespread problem. It is also extremely addictive and leads to downwards spirals of reclusive behavior, guilt and high-risk living.
Self-mutilation can be cutting, head-slamming, wrist banging, scratching, picking, burning, bruising- anything painful.

self-mutilation

Self-mutilation is when someone hurts themselves to release some form of pain. Usually cutting, pulling hair, burning, banging etc. Making fun of them is not going to help. Just because you have different ways of coping doesn't mean you should make fun of people that already have problems hating themselves etc. Self-mutilators need help they don't need people picking on them.
Self-mutilation is dangerous. If someone you know is self-mutilating get some kind of help.

FUNimation 

An American dubbing company who, in the past, brutally mutated great anime like Dragonball (forever) and Yu Yu Hakusho, but has since made a complete 180 and did spectacular jobs on Trinity Blood, Gunslinger Girl, Basilisk, and Fullmetal Alchemist (only major cut they made was the opening songs, but that was only because of licensing). We all have hopes of them saving slaughtered anime like One Piece and Love Hina.
"Damn, by some miracle someone killed the evil dudes at FUNimation. Who the hell knew that was gonna happen? These new anime are da bomb!"
"We're still waiting for 4Kids to die or have the same thing happen to them!"
