What reminds you of Evangelion in your day to day life?

This is the place to start: Feel free to introduce yourself, have general conversations and casual discussions about all things Evangelion, including chit-chatty topics like "Sachiel is adorable" or "Which Eva kicks the most ass?"

I was just trying to change the ROM on my android phone, which is an incredibly difficult process with many, many different steps. It kept failing for over an hour.

Eventually, I found myself muttering to a non-existant technical team "Repeat the process from step 108..."

Is it... refusing me?
Eva is the only anime I've ever watched, so I'm sorry if I don't get your jokes.

NHK channel is now broadcasting the memorial concert for the recent massive earthquake in Japan with Zubin Mehta conducting the NHK symphony and the first piece that was played is "Air" from JS Bach's Orchestral Suite No.3.
I never thought I would come back to Evangelion after EoE,
But I discovered Re-Take (or it found me?) and
now here I am.

Try finding something that doesn't relate to Eva, and I will make it relate.

Ex: A banana relates to Eva because people often make sexual references when people eat them in a arousing way, and there are lots of sexual references in Eva.

I can do that with anything about anything. Seriously. Try me.

Whenever someone extrapolates a shit-ton of meaning or jumps through hoops to try and rationalize something that ultimately seems laughably trivial, and everyone else in the room just kind of looks at each other mystified as if asking telepathically, When is this person going to finish speaking?, it always reminds me of Evangelion.

Peanuts contain the small edible bit, and its size is comparable to Shinji's pair (if he has one).

I said and did some dumb and hurtful things in my time here when i was younger. If i ever hurt you, i'm sorry. If you see any of this while reading old threads, i'm learning and trying to improve. Donut redemption arc in progress.

So I was watching Linkara's review of Star Trek: The Motion Picture #1-3 the other day, and wow there's a lot of similarities to Evangelion. I really can't believe no-one's picked up on this before. I mean, heck, why not just call Vger the the 19th Angel?!

No. Sometimes I do that too.

Sorry then... oh and now that I think about it: When ever I read a Peanuts comic strip, there's Charlie Brown (duh). And who does Ol' Chuck remind me of: None other then Shinji! If I remember right, someone made a comic blending those two together too...

Whoa whoa! Easy there, take a :chillpill: .

Please, I wish you used proper grammar. If you are truly 18, I would hope to think you would've learned it. If not, I understand, but still try to use the best grammar you can. This is an educated forum, and in saying that, I'm not saying you aren't educated, I mean that you look like you aren't educated. Anyways, welcome to the forum.

On-topic: I was with my family last night, and we were eating this amazing food.

Mum: Hey, what happened to the chicken. It melted!
My older brother: Yeah, thats it!
Me: No, it reached a synchronization rate of 400%!

Got some strong wind outside, 20-40 mph, and the noise it makes when it goes past my window sounds like the sound in the scene where my avatar is from in EOE.
