I've yet to go make my chips and salsa.

I don't like it as chunky as stores sell it, so I usually blend it up in a blender. That's the part that is holding me back.

Having to put together the blender. >_<

@Chaos I'm not disagreeing, but would you consider Avatar an anime?

I don't

When I speak to my American friends who aren't weebs, I just call anime cartoons and manga comics.

you're supposed to call them chinese cartoons

@Chaos that definition of anime is only western

does that mean it is correct?

I remember reading otherwise on wikipedia or a similar site.

I thought anime was just Japanese for animation.

Therefore I assumed we call it anime cause we call it by the Japanese name.

That is what I read roo

"Japanese animation" sounds more like a category rather than just the Japanese name for it.

Yeah... How did that message even get pinged? lol

It is used to refer to japanese animation in the west

as far japan I do not know

for*

If you're a Japanese father in Japan, do you ask your son "Do you you want to watch cartoons?" or "Do you want to watch Japanese cartoons?"

The more important question would be, what is Japanese for cartoon?

Not neccessarily irrelevant. I am curious what western stuff is called in JP; if it too is anime then it is possible to argue that Dexter's Lab and Scooby-Doo are anime

^ That's what I mean

If anime = Japanese for native animation
What's non-native animation?

the western definition is the incorrect one, just like with 'hentai'

Because if it's also anime, then anime in Japanese would just be animation instead of "Japanese Animation" as a category.

What's Japanese for salsa?

Fuck... That's right.

I shoulda known that due to location...

Mexico is only like an hour's drive. lol

Spanish flows into the English so much here, it creates what we ended up calling "TexMex."
