Standing on a train, listening to The Wall on my Mp3...

In perfect isolation on a crowded train. A unique sort of privacy. The ephemeral kind that is shattered the moment the battery dies.

Hahaha, true

The Wall (though not nearly as good) is rock equivalent of NGE

I can usually find a reference to Eva in pretty much everything in my life.

I'm surprised the topic of boobies hasn't come up yet. :misato_service:

I work grocery retail and a couple days ago, I was bagging... and an order with several containers of orange Tang came down the conveyor belt. Well, I managed to keep my game face on, but danged if I wasn't stealing glances around me, looking for any creepy-looking blue-haired girls with pale skin and red eyes.

I doubt I'm the only one who's had moments like this? :: laughs::

cicadas.

Whenever I watch other anime, there's often the same train sound.
God, Apparently you all have been discussing Q since November. Catching up on the discussion is harrowing.

Writing fanfiction, and my dog started chewing on my socks.

"Stoppit Asuka!" I yelled.

Ooops, if I'd seen that thread sooner (or thought to make a search for it), I'd have posted there. :redface:

Before I ever saw Evangelion, I saw this: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7wtvm4hrIg[/url] Ever since then, It's a Sin reminds me of Evangelion. In fact, some other Pet Shop Boys also remind me of Evangelion by association.

Not much else reminds me of Evangelion. The cicadas in Evangelion actually remind me of Animal Crossing, because I played AC before I saw Evangelion. Heh... Anyhoo...

Anything and everything involving the "Hedgehog's Dilemma" ('we want to get close to others, but getting close to others means getting hurt, and so on and so forth'). Every time this comes up in real life, it reminds me of Eva. It was there all along, of course, but Eva rather colorfully relates this omnipresent aspect of human experience not only to a parable about spiny rodents I hadn't previously heard about, but ties it into weird-ass stuff about forcefields that keep you from disintegrating into primordial ooze or give you god-like telekinetic powers. It's hard to ever look at interpersonal relations the same again, at least if you're someone like me and always had to put deliberate effort into understanding them in the first place.

So, yeah. Just about every time I hear people talk about relationships and how you need to take the bad with the good, and yadda yadda, I start getting these strange images of huddling hedgehogs and A.T. Fields in my head. And likewise whenever I'm wrestling with my own Hh'sD.

Damn it, now I can't play Sonic 2 without thinking about Evangelion. Great job, now I'm afraid of going into the special stages for fear that I'll wind up in an Angel instead.

The Eva franchise reminds you of itself? Doesn't that, you know, go without saying?
