crunchyroll.com they have subtitled anime and live action drama... and manga besides.
=====================================================
"Death is lighter than a Feather, Duty is heavier than a mountain"
the phrase is attributed to the Japanese, specifically the samurai... it was also co-opted for the Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan
it is not a new sentiment... i believe that the spartan mothers told their sons to "come back with your shield, or on it"
The Samurai believed that it was better to die doing ones duty, than to live having failed it
at its heart, this is why they treated our servicemen that surrendered so badly in World War II...
to them, Our servicemen had already done the unthinkable...
and these disparate cultures are now the strongest of allies... (now that we have taken responsibility for their national defense... good luck on the corporate battlefield against them, however)
=========================
Being a US Army native,
i tried to enlist after graduation in 1992,
and again after some idiots cashed in their chips to try to get 40 virgins in the after life
turns out that i could have gotten into the coast guard... (too late by the time i found that out... fun in the sun with crew served weapons!!! i wanted the deuce...)
have you ever tried to enlist in your countries service?
did you succeed?
how many tours did you serve?

Why cant people just let other people smoke, drink or what ever and just mind their own business?

Because people have their own ideas, and being raised differently makes them want to use their own opinions on others.
It's almost like human brainwashing, it might also be for protection generally smoking / drinking is something unhealthy for people. Family members can do crazy things to save people they love.
What is one thing you would want to do before you die, and if you could do it how would you react?

No, because I have written poetry ever since I was in 4 th grade. I also think writing shows your emotions a lot better then anything else.

When I was 5 I had an extreme fever that could've killed me, and ive had my life threatened by people a few times. Nothing that would just send chills up your spine through.
Has anyone ever said they were going to kill you( in a serious way not just in as a joke) and if so who was it?
