Few weeks ago, I pointed my palm at the moon, and yelled: "MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!" really loud!

Thank God no one heard me...!

And of course, doing Kamehameha hand motions here and there.

Doesn't everyone? :P

I remember way way back, when Toonami aired the Garlic Jr. Saga during their "New Year's Evil" I stayed up all night watching it, while doing push-up, sit-ups, punches and kicks during commercial breaks. :lol:
Oh and swooshing my hair up Super Saiyan 2 Gohan style.

I recall doing something quite similar to that, actually! Strange. The New Year's Evil bit, I mean.

And yeah, Kamehameha gestures? Four year old stuff, man. I'm tellin' ya. ;D It was that and Hadoukens for me, as a child.

In sixth grade, my parents apparently went through and emptied all my class folders the day before the math folder was to be checked. Upon discovering this, I did the Dale Kelly Ginyu yell (The room was generally noisy already!), to which the teacher (who has the honor of being my least favorite teacher ever... somehow I think she has a bitch-switch that is triggered by the sound of my voice even in the most innocent situations...) responds "Who's the racecar?"
Hmm, no wonder she made a cameo in that dream that started my fanfictioning as a covert ally of the villain... :(

I lost my job and had $500 to my name. I walked into Book-off in San Diego and saw Dragon Box Z Vols. 1 and 2 there. The thing is they were getting rid of them for about $180 a pop. I bought them regardless of my dire situation. It was stupid, and put myself in a bad spot for a couple weeks, but I love having the damn things! I never regretted the purchase. The live up to the hype and exceed it!

Oh god...
  • - Taping bits of my hair together so that I could have Super Saiyan hair.
    - Fusion dance of course! But we took it to the next level, we would record it and do the fusion dance then pause and record where the video left off with a different person standing there xD. Sad.
    - A fight I had in year 6, I did a quick kamehameha pose to distract then punched the kid lol that was hilarious. Oh and yes I used to be a bully, I'm such a horrible person.
    - This is my most embarassing moment, I can't believe I'm about to say this. Okay, so I'm a dub fan... screaming, yes... yes. Well basically which moment in DragonBall Z is there screaming the most? Goku Super Saiyan 3 uh-huh. Right... I had just watched that episode after jumping about with inspiration and jogged off to my room. Then I acted out that scene and started screaming... and well... well... I pissed myself. :(.


Don't laugh, I was eight =[.

I found an import video store that happened to sell Dragonball DVDs, and bought one. For about 70$. For 3 English dub-only early Saiyan arc episodes. Then an hour or so later, I went back and bought another one. When I got home some days later, I discovered my DVD player wouldn't play them.
...so I bought a new one. Roughly 200$ worth of expenses to watch 6 badly dubbed DBZ episodes. Wee.

I once tried shortening DBZ so it would be more watchable. Making DBZ shorter and removing the filler. That is completely ridiculous from a business standpoint.

You make me laugh uncontrollably. :lol:

There's this one time I threw a frisbee like a Kienzan.

I never apologized to that cat. :oops:

When i was younger late 90's I would always act as if we were Dragonball Z fighters and me and my friends were obsessed with "fighting each other" during break time or anytime we saw each other. We also used to make up little paper games and count our attacks kind of like an RPG. I used to cry to my mom when I couldn't go back home in time to see the new episode of DBZ on cartoon network, and the reruns had me crying to.

I also used to go to chinese places in new york and buy cheap DBZ action figures, the ones you could take the hair off from. It was so cool cause I used to act like they were going Super Saiyan 3 and just take their hair off. First time I saw Budokai 1, I flipped. I wanted it bad dude. I also remember when Gohan finally killed Cell and that music came on. It was like the end of everything. I also remember my friend showing me some dbz porn, it was some weird shit, especially when your young. I used to always try to blast anything we would pass in the car with my hand in the hopes that I would blow something up.

I also remember always seeing a poster my couzin had of a mini Goku fighting in SSJ3 againts this weird dude. Remember, this was back over a decade ago, I had no idea it was DBGT and that was Baby. That's all I can remember for now.
