All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part II

I get the feeling that when Gus and Janitor were participating in
running TVT they seemed to be acting more or less as a (pardon the pun)
moderating influence on Fast Eddie; their departure seems to have let FE
run wild (so to speak).(*)

(*) No.  Nice theory, but Gus is Eddie.
I'd translate "ganbaru" as "do your best"/"work hard", but I suppose it has a more than a hint of "good luck" to it too.  It doesn't have a great English equivalent, which is why my mind chose that word.  I used the polite volitional form, with the net effect of "let's work hard!".

As for my internets, I'm on one of those "you have only so much internet
bandwidth a month internet services before it rolls over and you get
some more unless you buy some restore tokens to tide you over" kind of
things, and while that usually isn't a problem, it took a nosedive for
reasons I'm still not sure of this month (probably all that online
holiday shopping during Christmas ^_^), but it'll be good soon.

Oh, I was afraid that you had a token ring network, and the token had gotten dropped (usually between the couch cushions).  While I'm on the topic, does someone want to merge Token Loli into Token Mini-Moe for me?
