*sigh*
Youth these days...
Studio Bones works around the clock, including weekends for over a year to create FMA ... and one work sums it up.

Tony:
Sorry, it's just one of those shows you have to watch for yourself.
Todd:
I seem to remember that Tony liked RaXephon. I guess there's hope for Studio Bones yet  .

Not to derail this thread too much - and it's pretty much been discussed before - but I think there's a lot of truth to this. My nephew is 22, just a little older than Tony-B iirc, and like I said, has a very similar attitude about things. (side note to Tony - if this is just an online persona, my apologies, but I believe that how people conduct themselves online is usually a decent indicator ofg how they are in the real world) My nephew can be even stranger as he will flip flop his opinions very quickly. He can play a MMORPG and think it is the greatest thing, then two weeks later it's total crap in his eyes. I know we all have been this way at one time or another, but the common element does seem to be age.
Back on topic, I am addicted to buying dvd's though I don't get to watch most of them. Anime in particular ends up sitting on my shelf waiting to be seen. Here's what I have still to watch:
Chobits (volume 2 on)
S-Cry-Ed (volume 2 on)
Last Exile (volume 3 on or so)
Twelve Kingdoms (volume 4 on or so)
Now and Then, Here and There
Berserk (volume 2 on)
Someday's Dreamers
RaXephon movie (did finish the series though!)
Chrono Crusade (only have volume 1)
Ninja Scroll TV
New Fist of the North Star
Fullmetal Alchemist
Evagelion Platinum (the hand of JohnAD has kept me from buying volume 7)
Yukikaze
Wow, that's like 50 discs or something....

James, it adds up quick, and as you get older - between a job, relationship/marriage, and other duties it's very difficult to watch stuff.
I am lucky at the moment since I am single and I don't watch much broadcast or cable tv, but between work and life in general it's tough to find time to watch stuff...
Hmm I don't think I was like that when I was young, but hey - memories do get "rosier" over time. Today's youth are even more vocal about their tastes and opinions. As they say it's a whole new world...

James:
Mwa ha ha. Feel the power of the Dark Side of the Force!
That's a lot of disks. Speaking of Yukikaze, was the one disk that's been released the whole OVA, or are there more disks coming out?

I thought there was more to come for Yukikaze, but to be honest I don't really know. I'm curious about that as well - it would be a rare single disc series for me if it was complete.
EDIT: My wife is definitely not an anime fan. She has the notion that it's all about "mouse-girls with big eyes and big boobs". I want to pick up Grave of the Fireflies and watch that with her  . My daughter shows interest in it, but she's only 4. I figure she should be at least 5 before I start watching Elfen Lied or Gantz with her . Seriously though, she does need to be a bit older to watch the stuff I'm interested in.

Isn't CN doing One Piece? I'm pretty sure I saw an ad on CN.

Hey, I know that feeling. *looks at all the unwatched anime on wall*
Since I'm a night owl, I do have some time in the evening to watch some stuff, but it isn't as quick as I'd like sometimes with some shows. Particularly since my DVD player in the basement is my computer...

Jason - I used to do the late night dvd watching thing, but then City of Heroes came along. Then World of Warcraft. And now, the PSP. I'll eventually get my priorities straight .
