hi

[Furtuka]

I keep clenching my teeth really hard for no reason.

Apparently, modern archery might have been doing it wrong.

EDIT: Hey, in my rush to show it off, I missed the fucking link TWO POSTS BACK!

Well done brain, your observation skills are fucking amazing.

'Might have' is a big understatement
The link reminds me of a conversation I had with my archery instructor. He mentioned things like these in his studies (as evidenced by the stances and shooting pictures taken). I always wondered how it'd be to be a mobile archer instead of that--all the stories mentioned in history talk about what the link describes very well.
^{Even in the Bible, it is mentioned on archers being proficient in both hands and...yeah. That's a nice link.}

So I have been watching Gilmore Girls with my sister (Well not anymore because she can't take observations)

And I've experienced three things I haven't really experienced before in any sort of show with continuity and here they are

A Waterwheel Plot

Gilmore Girls the ENTIRE thing is basically a giant waterwheel. Sure plot still advances but a lot of it is just reset back to the start. It gives the entire show a very circular feeling as characters and events will advance, only for them to sort of move backwards, then move forwards, then backwards again, then MAYBE advance forward.

Think of it like "Status Quo is God" except the status quo is changed, but then reverted down the line.

But WAIT it also has another flavor. Sometimes Gilmore Girls will start a plot but chicken out (The guy with the trench coat will turn out not to secretly have a gun hidden in there) but then later down the line do the exact same plot... but do it for real.

A Stall Plot

Ok so two characters are really close but they don't want to advance their relationship anymore because it would end the show too quickly AND they don't want to eliminate the possibility that they will get together.

Well they will often just add another character, usually out of the blue, to snatch one of the characters so to "stall" the earlier relationship. With the intent being to eventually go back.

---

I have never experienced a show like this...

I am not sure if I could recommend the show or not because watching it the show can be quite good at times... but the above makes it hard to find the show fulfilling.

By the way Gilmore Girl's catch phrase?: "I don't want to talk about it"

So expect a lot of episodes that could be solved in 2 minutes be solved over 2 episodes because the characters constantly walk away from conversations.

Basically if what I described doesn't phase you... Watch it... but the show IS a soap opera in pretty much everyway but name.

I don't know if it's an anime/manga, but that's literally every romance one ever. Though it's usually too worried about hurting feelings/too embarrassed to talk.

Western Live Action TV show.

My girlfriend's little brother is weird...
He is one and won't even let me hug her. He walked over, pushed my legs and gave me a death glare, then started crying whenever I got within two feet of her.

[Xantalos]

He's jealous of her giving the attention to you, I think. Children under 3 are massive attention whores.

So, basically, her entire family doesn't like you.

Or the kid just doesn't like you invading his space and finds your affection weird and cannot handle the weight of his own feelings and emotions.

[TD1]

Probably just a jealous child.

Errr, I wouldn't think judging a newly born person with that kinda association would be...healthy, Kal. While it may be ok as a guide...for future reference...in some kind of way...
..
You maaaay be overdoing it there.
Babies be fussy at times ._.
Maybe its your emotions and that he can feel it?

[Furtuka]

If he can walk, push someone over, and give death glares I don't think he counts as a newly born baby anymore Tiruin.

[Cptn Kaladin Anrizlokum]

Probably just a jealous child.

Or, the more logical answer, her mother has been brainwashing him to make him dislike me.

And yeah, he would glare at me if I got too close to her, but if I stayed away from her he tried to be my best friend and kissed my face and things...

HEH! maybe he secretly likes you and is actually jealous of his sister.
