Return of the "Motivator" meme
11-03-2007, 09:39 PM
On rec.arts.anime.misc, at least...
Bill Martin's put together three new posters - the first for the guys, the secondfor the gals, and finally one for the cosplayers.
May be NSFW, depending on how conservative work is...

I agree wholeheartedly with the Avatar posters. Toph is Badass Personified. She's blind, short, snarky, and she will STILL kick your ass and the asses of all that follow you.
Toph: "There it is!"
Sokka & Katara: "Where?"
Toph: "Yep. That's what I'd be saying...if I wasn't BLIND!"
I really need to buckle down and buy that damn series.

It's mentioned further down that it's La Blue Girl.
Which, when you think about, is a scary idea.
Pesonally, I like the W40C one.

That is a good one but they should really add more shells into the case. four is simply not enough :S_______________________________
We're definitely playing this game wrong. I thought Vampire was supposed to be a game of personal horror, not about ninja magic-carpet airstrikes at night.
