What is the Watercooler?

It's a haven in the middle of a harsh, 9-to-5 world. A place where you can gather with your fellow human beings and bond over a paper cup full of cool refreshment.

All sorts of randomness is welcome here. Post pictures, videos, special Chat information, or just discuss news and current events.

Wrong Color!!!

I can't remember if I've posted in here or not so time to do so! ^_^

Anyway, I ran across this the other day... it's both hilarious and utterly pathetic at the same time.

Wrong Color

I know I'd love to get a new car for my birthday so seriously... what the heck?!? Talk about being a spoiled brat! XP

More abridged fun...

Alright people, here's another one from YuYu Hakusho: Poltergeist Report. Hope you like it.

My useless character senses are tingling...

Anime Club - Minami-ke ep7-9

Meet your fellow otaku and enjoy some anime at the weekly Anime Club meetings in the Community Chat.

What's the Anime Club?
The Anime Club is a weekly chat room in theOtaku's community chat where we meet to have fun laughing, crying, heckling, and spazzing together while watching a few episodes of anime. The anime will most likely be available on streaming sites since we're mainly going to stick to unlicensed shows. I hope the Anime Club will be a good opportunity for people to find new series and genres that they enjoy, and for series to gather support for if/when they're licensed.

What are you watching?
We're currently watching Minami-ke, a thirteen-episode comedy/slice of life series. It features weird dialogue- and slapstick-based humor that fans of shows such as Azumanga Daioh, Lucky Star, or Ouran High School Host Club should enjoy.

When are the next episodes?
We will be watching Minami-ke episodes 7 - 9 on Saturday, September 13, at 10:00 PM Eastern Time (7:00 PM Pacific). The chat room will open about a half hour early, around 9:30 PM Eastern. Given three episode at twenty-four minutes each, they'll last about an hour and fifteen minutes. I hope to see you there!

The password for the chat room will be: banchou

Movie Sign #5 - Puma Man

Join us - TimeChaser, Katana, and Shinmaru - for the next Movie Sign on the Otaku Chatroom.

What is Movie Sign?
Each week, we watch an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 while having a fun, spammy chat about it. We use episodes available on You Tube so everyone can watch simultaneously.

What is MST3K?
It's a comedy show about a man and his robots being forced to watch bad movies as part of a mad scientist's experiment. The man, Joel Robinson or Mike Nelson, and the robots Tom Servo and Crow, watch real B-movies and riff on them, that is make jokes and talk back to the films.

Next Episode
Move over Superman, it's time for Puma Man! In Episode 903 - Puma Man, a villain plots to control the minds of world leaders with a mystical Aztec mask. Meanwhile, an average man discovers his ancient heritage as a powerful superhero. Well, powerful in that he flies by flailing his arms and legs everywhere while dangling in front of rear-projected city footage...

Here's a quick preview...

So be there next Sunday night and join in the fun! Movie starts at 8 PM EST, chat opens at 7:30.
