I've only ever watched the US version of the Office (which I found good). I should probably try to rectify that soon.

Didn't the Office originally air in the UK? Also, I have a bit of problem, what do you when you're playing Civ as the Zulu and the British show up with and naval force that stretches back 27 tiles? With embarked infantry? Because There is no way in hell Impi's win against Ships of the Line.

It is actually, I started watching it because I was heartbroken by Being Human finishing in the UK, though the first couple of episodes are almost exactly the same as the British one, towards the end of the first series it splits off onto its own route.

The residents in our nation's capital are too stupid to understand Southern Juttish, so they had to have subtitles for this one movie... that was embarrasing for them

Almost ready to leave for the anime convention! :D I've got so much homework this weekend, though; it really stinks. I'll have to put in a couple hours after arriving at the hotel and before it starts today.

This is fun so far. I'm just sitting outside the vendor room making sure everyone that enters the room has a badge, but there's so many cool costumes and I can't wait till my shift's done so I can check out the inside of the room.
