Got a call from the financial aid advisor telling me that they made a mistake with filing my account (or some other sort of clerical error) and said that, basically, they owe me money. Y’know I reblogged this a bit ago and was saved from financial probation and getting kicked out of school because of it, just mere months from graduation. In case anyones interested in the other versions I don’t even care if it actually works, I’m mostly reblogging because it’s freaking adorable.Ĭute cat and need money, good post, 10/10 #this is the only money cat i will reblog because it’s actually doing the manekineko pose151,646 notes (via lolwhutninja)Īnd it has its right paw up! the correct paw for this.Īnd from the markings on its ears, it looks like it might be a calico cat. reblog in 30 seconds and you will find yourself with more wealth Images mercilessly ganked from Google Image Seach.

What’s a Victor Wondermega? It’s a Sega Mega Drive (Genesis) and a Sega Mega CD (Sega CD) all-in-one unit released by Victor (aka JVC) in Japan in the 1990s, while that was a viable (?) system option. Because after a second I noticed that the hardware depicted on the front of the box is a Victor Wondermega. For those who are unaware, anime often contains tweaked “real world” trademarks that remain recognizable, so as to add a sense of realism, but are clearly not the actual represented product, like this “SUNY” boombox I found on a tumblr devoted to fake brands in anime:Īnyway, the other reason it’s funny (besides “Dreamgast” or the very idea of a Dreamcast 4) is the fact that the target was clearly chosen because the staff of SHIROBAKO (someone on it, anyway) is a Sega hardware otaku. Last night Fran and I finished watching SHIROBAKO, which is an anime series about anime creators at an anime studio - it’s one of the best anime I’ve seen in years, incidentally, and deserves being written about (though I’m sure a lot of others have beat me to the punch…)Īnyway, this is a non-spoiler post, but in the last episode there’s a scene where one of the characters gets this…Ī “Dreamgast 4,” the box proclaims, which is funny for at least a couple of obvious reasons right off the bat.
