Note To Self:

Talking to a person about being into the hardcore gaming scene is completely different than talking to them about the hardcore anime scene. In future, I must find a new adjective.

And do not, I repeat, do not say “if she is really into the hardcore anime scene, I can get import DVD’s from Japan and Hong Kong” when I’m talking to a 14 year old girl’s mother.

Further notation: Do not attempt to salvage this by then saying “I mean, I can get DVD’s from Japan that you can’t get here.”

Next time, say “really likes anime” and “can get DVD’s not on sale here yet.”
