What is it with hentai and impregnation? Why is it supposed to be sexy to make the girl pregnant, and why doesn't any form of birth control pill apparently exist in Japan?

You gotta be reading my mind. It's like, I'm reading this thing, and then they decide to ditch the condom even though they just met (!), and my reaction, hilariously enough, is something on the lines of "$Authorname, you irresponsible fuck! Children might read your doujins and get the wrong idea about birth control and parental responsibility! You should feel terrible about yourself, you bastard!"

I truly have no idea why they think it's either believable or attractive. My only suggestion might be that it is flattering to be considered so attractive that other people randomly decide that they want your babies? So it's a wish fulfillment thing, in a way?

Ok someone is reading my bills... and well there isn't anything I can do to stop them
-They are reading my bills because I let people borrow money... They paid me back! I don't give out money anymore.

Yet there is something I want to use Paypal for.

What does Paypal look like on a bill? Is it just a paypal statement... or does it say what it is for?

Ps. No I am not letting someone borrow money via Paypal... >_<

You mean, on bank statements? No, just the amount. I think on your paypal account it does say where the money went to though.

From what I've heard, Japan has too damn little (or is it few in that case? I'm not sure) young people, and their birth rate is one of the lowest in Asian region. Therefore my personal theory is this: it's a not-so-well hidden message, an endorsement of reproduction.

Could also be a power/taking possession thing - impregnation as 'making one's mark', so to speak. Kinda like a dog peeing against a tree.

And what do I do with [img]?

there's a preview post button and two possibilities for the usage of img that may or may not work that you can try without forcing anyone to see it

Just redownloaded Dragon Age: The Good One and wasn't there some way to unlock all the achievements instantly?
BFEL doesn't want to have to do a whole playthrough+ 2 side stories over again to grab the sexy equipments.

EDIT: Nvm, figured it out eventually.

Indeed, I do this.

Why do gopniks squat and eat sunflower seeds? I get the bad clothes and crime, that's typical for the unemployed uneducated types. But squatting and eating sunflower seeds seem like really weird things to do as anything but trying to fit into a clique.

I believe squatting had something to do with lack of sitting surfaces, all of them being subjected to vandalism or being non-existent back in the early 1990's when these chaps came to be.
Sunflower seeds are just a rather common snack in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus (as well as the Baltic states, but not so sure here). It is rather enticing process, popping them one by one, really.

E: How come a UK dweller is bothered by gopniks, by the way? I really thought you don't find much of these to the west of Poland.

They eat sunflower seeds because sunflower seeds are a very cheap snack that consumes a lot of time - basically, you do petty robbery, right? Petty robbery involves a lot of waiting for an easily robbable schmuck. You can't wait for the schmuck on a bench near a house entrance because someone would call the cops on you or something. So you pick a less busy area (which probably has no benches) and then squat there while eating sunflower seeds to pass the time. At least, that was the original idea. It's a clique thing as well, I guess.
