Apparently, famous internet meme and Conan O’Brien time filler Chuck Norris is hoping Texas secedes from the United States, and says he would be the president of it should it come to that.

Since Obama has taken office I have become sick. Sick of every ignorant motherfucker who feel the need to make some sort of play on Obama’s campaign motto, “Change we can believe in,” every time something arises to which they disagree with.
I can’t seem to wrap my head around what these people represent. Are they Republicans who didn’t pay attention to anything during the election other than party affiliation?

Regardless of their affiliation they’re apparently the most unqualified people to comment on the current political situation in the US.
A few thoughts on the Watchmen movie (having just seen it today):

New Cast of Fullmetal Alchemist
A while back, news broke that for the new FMA series, based closer to the original Hiromu Arakawa manga than the first television series, the Japanese voice actresses Romi Paku and Rie Kugimiya would be reprising their roles as Edward and Alphonse Elric, respectively.

However, now there’s confirmation that while some other voice talent are returning to their roles in the new series, others are not.
