Happy New Year
12-31-2022, 11:15 PM
As we head into the last hour of 2022 here on the East coast of the United States, I'd just like to wish everyone on the forums a happy new year. Here's hoping 2023 is better in all ways for all of us.

I will admit that it's a new year.
I'm still not yet sure what's happy about it.
I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.
One day they're going to ban them.

Oh yeah, I meant to drop a post on the board that all the Sherlock Holmes stuff is now public domain. Thanks for the link!
Also, I'll note that a year from now, Steamboat Willie is due to go into the public domain, too. In the past, whenever Steamboat Willie has even got a whiff of the public domain Disney has pulled out all the stops and gotten extensions of copyright duration rammed through Congress. It will be interesting to see if they do it again this year.
But that's a topic for another thread, in a different section of the board.

In Vietnam,
it's the Year of the Cat, not the Year of the Rabbit.
Of course, old-school anime fans know one way for both sides to get along...

Post a picture of Usagi Tsukino and Luna.
Also a valid solution.
