True Geekiness!

This is the kind of talk the nerds in the Big Bang Theory engage in. Which would entail that I too am a nerd! All hail Nerd-dom! :)

me: hahaha
  yeah, and i say your geeky FB status abt Naruto!
  lol
  saw*
 Karl: YEAH
  SO COOL
  i wish more people would do stuff like that
  i mean tie in their local myths with modern stuff
10:58 AM and actually make it cool
10:59 AM me: but they didnt really tie anything in right?
  isnt it just the name?
  (or did i miss something?)
11:01 AM Karl: well, the names of the two eye techniques are tsukiyomi and amaterasu right?
11:02 AM they came from both eyes of izanagi
  amaterasu is the sun god, which is the unending fire technique
  tsukiyomi is for the moon
  which kind of ties in with time
11:03 AM and the tsukiyomi is sort of a time technique in that it traps the victim in a illusion where time is not a factor
11:04 AM it's like redefining the local myths for a new generation
  geek gush!
 me: This gChat conversation deserves to be blogged about
11:05 AM lol
 Karl: ahaha
11:06 AM yeah, take a look at final fantasy too
  lotsa mythological references
  so when you think about it, naruto is really well researched
  you can also argue that it's well written!
