That's pretty much what she's saying to Shinji in that scene.

I hate her. I'm such a hardcore Shinji x Asuka fan, I always feel like she's tainting the relationship.

Plus I think she's a whore >:[

I'm human, and I can still be misanthropic, though.

Bringing the topic back just for the hell of it, I guess the only problem I have with Mana (despite already being pro-Shinji/Asuka, so I guess I'm already biased in that sense) is that not only WAS she a spy as Asuka thought all along (and more or less used Shinji in that sense) but also as soon as her boyfriend from that Trident group showed up, she ran back to his arms, completly blowing off Shinji! (Does kinda suck how in ending 2, I think, she says that he didn't make it/died, but still...)

All the more reason for Shinji to stick with Asuka, I'd say. He wouldn't have to worry about her leaving him for someone else. ^_^
(Yeah, Asuka likes Kaji, too, but obviously that's unrequited.)

A mysogynist is somebody who hates women.

Misanthropic? I dunno, look it up.

A mysogynist is somebody who gets a swift kick in the balls whenever he opens his mouth too wide in proximity to myself.

A misanthrope is someone who hates or distrusts all humans, possibly including himself / herself.

Now I know what I am. Cool.

Out of curiosity is that a joke or are you being serious?

Actually no. I'm really the emergent consciousness a pack of wolf-like dolphin-descended creatures.

:lol: Kudos on the funny comeback! I was laughing so hard it took me a few minutes to work up a reply. Didn't quite answer my question though. Seriously dude, I'm trying to understand your thought process.

You know that you've know Mr. Tines for too long when you actually get that reference. ;)

Scratch that. There is no "too long". :lol:

The original Mr. Tines from whom I take the handle was just such a pack intelligence (see the 4th picture in the sig below).

And I do get misanthropic moods. When I say that these guys have an insufficiently radical agenda, I am often dead serious.

But aren't they being misanthropic as well? Or am I just misinterpreting the use of that word?

...

So what about that Mana, eh?

Well that's an interesting viewpoint. I guess my initial view that i will probably never understand how that mind of yours works was dead on.

Who is this Mana you speak of? <sarcasm>
