Why do Anime characters have a big drop of sweat when they're showing circumstantial confusion?

Why do Anime characters fall over backwards when someone makes a dumb comment?

Why do Anime characters blow bubbles out their noses when they sleep?

I always found it funny how they do things differently in Asia! Any way, Dark, what am I supposed to do with the link you pointed at? (First post) Can I watch something from there? Do you have work submitted?

*EDITED* Just realized the final piece of your comment Neo. Actually, that link in my first post, that is the group that I'm a member of here at UoM. On that page, you can select the different links to learn more about the club, the types of anime we show, and how we function. Also, on that first page, if you click on the link that says "Con Ja Nai" you'll get our play list for all the anime we showed on saturday, along with a short description of each. The site is not updated fully yet, so don't bother looking for my name in there b/c it's not there.

On another note, animesuki is an introduction to a type of P2P network called "BIT TORRENT", for those that haven't heard of it.

What you do is this: download a bit torrent program (there's many of them), then on that site, you can download the torrents for every one of those animes that they have and run the torrents on the bit torrent program, which initiates the download of the anime/file.

Bit torrent is a very nice P2P program, I use Azereus. Unlike other P2P programs, there are no adds, there's no spyware, no viruses, just a clean and perfectly working system. The only thing it's limited to is the availability of sources for particular files.

If you want to use Bit torrent for more general things, then you can use torrent search engines to find torrents for other files besides anime. I like to use http://www.isohunt.com if there's something else I'm looking for.
