November 5[edit]

What anime girls do you like the most and do you have any suggestions for me?[edit]

Hi. I was wondering if anyone could share their favorite anime girls. I am wanting to expand my anime girl picture collection (both safe for work and not safe for work ~_^) and I wanted some suggestions. But first, give me your's. -MetalGearOtaku (talk) 13:04, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a discussion forum. This is a reference desk. Do you want a list of the top 10 most popular Anime girls from some magazines or television shows? If you really just want people's opinions, this is not the place to ask. -- kainaw 13:24, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That will be okay. Can you help answer my other question now? -MetalGearOtaku (talk) 13:27, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Have you looked into the discussion about Wikipedia:Wikipe-tan? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 03:53, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Professional hentai[edit]

Another question ^_^. Does anyone know if there are any businesses or anime studios in Japan that make custom hentai commissions? I would really like to know, I like my girls to be authentic. Just pictures or stills are okay, but I'd like some animated hentai too, and in GOOD QUALITY, no cheap crap! Thanks. -MetalGearOtaku (talk) 13:13, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There are thousands of anime artists that offer custom work. I suggest choosing someone that you like based on the artwork. For example look at custom anime on Google image search and click through on images that look promising. Because "anime" and "hentai" are very broad fields, you don't want to hire someone who produces work that looks completely wrong to you. -- kainaw 13:37, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Crossword clue[edit]

I already know the answer from the words in the other direction, but still this hint makes no sense to me:

... golf, hotel, _____, Juliet, kilo, ...

The word in question is 5 letters long. I will reveal the answer, but first I'd like to see if anybody can get it from that clue. The only thing I get from the clue is that the answer probably starts with the letter I. StuRat (talk) 18:44, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Way too easy a question. Textorus (talk) 19:31, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. I'd expect Stu to know that, but it is easy to haplessly avoid information that you have no use for. I personally never noticed pronunciation of "Arkansas" until I was in high school. I made reference to "Ar-Kansas" and everyone made fun of my ignorance for weeks. -- kainaw 19:52, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I would hate to say how old I was before I learned the right way to pronounce cupola. Textorus (talk) 19:58, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Within the state of Kansas, that portion of the Arkansas River *is* pronounced Ar-Kansas. The Mark of the Beast (talk) 21:59, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"I just came from Kansas."
"Really ? Who's Ken ?" StuRat (talk) 01:33, 6 November 2011 (UTC) [reply]

Thanks, I get it now. StuRat (talk) 20:00, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The phonetic alphabet is not supposed to make sense from word to word, it's just supposed to make the letters sound unique when spoken over a crackly, staticky old military radio. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 03:56, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
