More like you don't understand how the English language works. Affixes can completely change the pronunciation of a word. In fact, try that very word on for size:

Yeah, a lot. There were many trippy parts and lots of cool images. The story is also pretty good. It made my weekend great, being honest.
>Had you heard anything about it before?
All I heard was that it was this legendary and influential anime series that you just had to watch at least once in your life.
>Did it live up to your expectations?
Yeah, definitely. I didn't know what to expect save something epic. I wasn't expecting all the psychosexual aspect to the whole thing. And now I can see all the subsequent films and series that ripped it off with impunity lol its influence can be seen on many, many places, from small details to entire concepts.

>Screaming at everyone and exploding at the slightest inconvenience means opening up yourself
NiBBer, the very image this subthread originated from (asuka in the bathtub) shows her personality unraveled: her aggressive persona is a hardened shell of larp and cope meant to cover up the many deep cuts and wounds of her soft, sensitive psyche. In light of this insight, i now like to refer to asuka as the 'lobster girl'. Having lived with women like that in real life, who behaved in this fashion of lashing out when being wounded internally; i can say it's like a wounded animal, not cute or endearing in the least, but dangerous and dreadful.

I think she probably has a tendency to scream as she comes, but that she will try to suppress it and instead bite her lip and whimper so as not to give you the satisfaction, unaware that in doing so she's only making your dick harder.
