DAIKEN ULTIMATE SHIP MEME!

ICHIJOUJI KEN & MOTOMIYA DAISUKE

General:

How long will they last? - Forever. They’re soulmates.

How quickly did/will they fall in love? - If they weren’t in love before they Jogressed, they certainly were afterward.

How was their first kiss? - Messy and stupid and spur of the moment because Daisuke exists.

Wedding:

Who proposed? - Ken, but he barely beat Daisuke to the punch.

Who is the best man/men? - It was a really small ceremony, so they didn’t have any Best Men. The important thing is that Wormmon is the flower bearer and V-mon is the ring bearer.

Who is the braid’s maid(s)?

Who did the most planning? - Ken

Who stressed the most? - Ken

How fancy was the ceremony? - Like a two or three. They don’t need anything fancy as long as they have each other. Back of a pickup truck | 2 | 3 | 4 | Normal Church Wedding | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Kate and William wish they were this big.

Who was specifically not invited to the wedding? - They argued over whether to invite Takeru, but Ken insisted Daisuke shouldn’t let a silly childhood grudge prevent one of their closest friends from attending their wedding. In the end Ken won, and as expected, Takeru was nothing but nice. Really, though, these are two of the most warm-hearted people ever, so there wasn’t anyone they legitimately chose not to invite, even though they kept it small.

Sex:

Who is on top? - Usually Daisuke, but they switch it up.

Who is the one to instigate things? - 50/50

How healthy is their sex life? - Probably not super healthy at first because Ken’s still fucked up in the head, but Daisuke is more than willing to help him sort out his trauma. Once they get that sorted out, they’re having sex all the time. Daisuke is very physically affectionate, and while it takes Ken a while to warm up to people, physical touch is also very important to him. Barely touch themselves let alone each other | 2 | 3 | 4 | Once a couple weeks, nothing overboard | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They are humping each other on the couch right now

How kinky are they? - “Might try some butt stuff and toys” LOL. THEY’RE GAY! ALL THEY DO IS BUTT STUFF. Okay, but seriously, probably around a six or seven. They definitely do some bondage...and stuff... Straight missionary with the lights off | 2 | 3 | 4 | Might try some butt stuff and toys | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Don’t go into the sex dungeon without a horse’s head

How long do they normally last? - Should I break out my timer?

Do they make sure each person gets an equal amount of orgasms? - Ken always wants things to be equal, but Daisuke is ridiculously giving and is more than willing to forego his own orgasm(s) to please Ken.

How rough are they in bed? - Yes. To all of these options. They have a wide range and enjoy any variation from making love to fucking against a wall. Softer than a butterfly on the back of a bunny | 2 | 3 | 4 | The bed’s shaking and squeaking every time | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Their dirty talk is so vulgar it’d make Dwayne Johnson blush. Also, the wall’s so weak it could collapse the next time they do it.

How much cuddling/snuggling do they do? - As already stated, they’re both very physically people. Daisuke is super affectionate, and Ken is basically the biggest cuddler you’ll ever meet. They’re a fucking ten here. No touching after sex | 2 | 3 | 4 | A little spooning at night, or on the couch, but not in public | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | They snuggle and kiss more often than a teen couple on their fifth date to a pillow factory.

Children:

How many children will they have naturally? - Zero. They gay.

How many children will they adopt? - Maybe one or two.

Who gets stuck with the most diapers? - Let’s be real...probably Ken. Daisuke is super forgetful but will do them without complaint if reminded.

Who is the stricter parent? - Ken

Who stops the kid(s) from doing dangerous stunts after school? - Ken

Who remembers to pack the lunch(es)? - Ken

Who is the more loved parent? - Daisuke lets them get away with more, but Ken is the more nurturing. Could go either way.

Who is more likely to attend the PTA meetings? - Ken

Who cried the most at graduation? - Ken

Who is more likely to bail the child(ren) out of trouble with the law? - Daisuke. Also, Ken is scary when he’s angry.

Cooking:

Who does the most cooking? - Daisuke. Obviously.

Who is the most picky in their food choice? - Ken

Who does the grocery shopping? - Daisuke

How often do they bake desserts? - Well, Daisuke likes to pamper Ken, so more often than they should.

Are they more of a meat lover or a salad eater? - Daisuke is more into meat while Ken is more of a salad eater. Generally, though, they compromise well.

Who is more likely to surprise the other(s) with an anniversary dinner? - Daisuke. Food is how he shows his love.

Who is more likely to suggest going out? - Daisuke. He just really loves food.

Who is more likely to burn the house down accidentally while cooking? - 100% Ken. He’s no longer allowed in the kitchen.

Chores:

Who cleans the room? - Ken

Who is really against chores? - Daisuke

Who cleans up after the pets? - Daisuke. He’s the ridiculous one who thought they need an entire hoard of puppies, after all. Which makes it his responsibility. (This may be a point of contention...)

Who is more likely to sweep everything under the rug? - Daisuke

Who stresses the most when guests are coming over? - Ken

Who found a dollar between the couch cushions while cleaning? - Daisuke. He also immediately stopped cleaning to run and tell Ken about it because it was very exciting.

Misc:

Who takes the longer showers/baths? - Ken, partially at Daisuke’s insistence that it’s important for him to relax and let the bath wash away the day’s stress.

Who takes the dog out for a walk? - Daisuke

How often do they decorate the room/house for the holidays? - Ken likes to decorate a little for Christmas because his family did growing up, and of course they decorate for New Year’s. Generally, they do minimal decorations for the major Japanese holidays.

What are their goals for the relationship? - I mean, what more is there than what they already have? They love each other unconditionally, support and encourage each other’s dreams, and are always honest with each other. Probably the biggest thing they need to work on is communication because Ken still blames himself for everything and Daisuke has low self-esteem and hates admitting when something has hurt his feelings, but they’re getting better, dammit.

Who is most likely to sleep till noon? - Daisuke

Who plays the most pranks? - Daisuke

Guilty Moon. Law firm was paid $100,000 up front and $50,000 a month to obtain a presidential pardon for Moon. It failed.

▲ Sun Myung Moon and Takeru Kamiyama in Danbury prison.

Moon used money in his attempt to fight the facts that resulted in the two men being jailed. Details here:

Sun Myung Moon was found guilty of US tax fraud and sent to Danbury prison in 1984

Moon, 62, was convicted of failing to report as personal income $112,000 of interest on $1.6 million in his Chase accounts, as well as $50,000 worth of stock in Tong Il Enterprises, a profit-making import company that Moon controlled. Convicted with him was his top financial aide, Takeru Kamiyama, 40, who was charged with helping the evangelist prepare false tax returns to conceal the income, attempting to block the subsequent Government investigation by submitting phony backdated documents, and lying to a grand jury.

___________________________________________

Here is what Sun Myung Moon did:

Extract from transcript of PBS Frontline: The Resurrection of Reverend Moon

Broadcast January 21, 1992

Eric Nadler, reporter. Written and produced by Rory O'Connor.

Narrator: Moon ultimately went to the top in his effort to clear his name seeking a presidential pardon for his crimes.

Narrator: The point man was Max Hugel, a former Reagan campaign official and one-time deputy director of the Central Intelligence Agency in charge of covert operations.

Hugel: “It is so important to have a superb intelligence agency.”

Narrator: Hugel was forced to leave the agency in the wake of a stock scandal.

(Soundtrack) PRESS CONFERENCE: Reporter off camera: “Can you tell us why you’re not choosing to stay on and fight?”

Narrator: Hugel later went into business with Jonathan Park, the son of Bo Hi Pak.

ATLANTIC VIDEO DEMO REEL: Announcer: “Through two huge sound locks are the best outfitted tele-production studios in the region.”

Narrator: Hugel worked with Park to expand Moon’s electronic media empire, while also brokering contacts between Bo Hi Pak and Vice President George Bush.

Narrator: In this April, 1988 memo to Unification Church member Marc Lee, Hugel offers to arrange for Pak to have his picture taken with the Vice President at a cost of $50,000. Hugel also promises to try to get Bush to write to Pak. Two months later, Bush did write to Pak, and told him, “I hope we can meet again soon.” Did they discuss a pardon during their meeting? Neither President Bush nor Bo Hi Pak would comment to FRONTLINE.

Narrator: Later in 1988, Hugel also recruited the law firm of one of Ronald Reagan’s best friends to assist in Moon’s pardon effort, former Senator Paul Laxalt.

(Soundtrack) Ronald Reagan: “The friend who understands you creates you, a wise man once said. Paul created because he always understood and for that I am and shall always be grateful.”

Narrator: Laxalt’s law firm was paid $100,000 up front and $50,000 a month to obtain a presidential pardon for Moon. According to billings submitted by the lawyers, Laxalt was directly involved in the pardon effort. This petition for executive clemency was delivered to the Justice Department, accompanied by letters from Senator Orrin Hatch, publisher William Rusher, and civil rights leader Ralph Abernathy endorsing the pardon.

Narrator: The Washington Times also became involved in the pardon campaign. First, Editor Arnaud de Borchgrave wrote a “letter from the editor.”

Cheshire: “It was not really a letter to the editor, it was a letter to President Reagan urging President Reagan to grant Reverend Moon a presidential pardon.”

Narrator: Later, The Times ran this article examining Reagan’s record on pardons. After it appeared, Laxalt’s partner, Paul Perito, became alarmed. Perito warned Bo Hi Pak that “if a case can be made…that the Church allegedly controls and dictates the activities of organizations such as The Washington Times…this will affect our credibility and could materially damage our prodigious efforts.”

(Soundtrack) Off-Camera Female Reporter: “Any last thoughts for us, President and Mrs. Reagan, on your way out?”

Narrator: Ronald Reagan never pardoned Sun Myung Moon. Moon’s pardon application is still pending before the Bush Administration. Max Hugel, Paul Laxalt, and Paul Perito all refused to comment. Ronald Reagan also declined to comment.

VIDEO: The Resurrection of Reverend Moon

___________________________________________

From Ronald Reagan's Diary:

Monday December 24, 1984 “Senator Orrin Hatch is after me to grant clemency to the Rev. Moon. I've explored this & find I just can't. I have, however, taken action to see if I can grant him a furlough over New Years. It seems that day is the holiest in that religion.”

Orrin Hatch was a well-known Mormon.

Ronald Reagan Diaries: http://wonkette.com/263737/reagan-diary-lets-bust-rev-moon-out-of-prison-for-new-years

___________________________________________

Moon did get a furlough from prison in March of 1985, before his final release – and what did he do with that time? He crowned himself “Emperor of the Universe!”

Sun Myung Moon: The Emperor of the Universe

Nansook Hong interviewed for the documentary: “Moon crowned himself as the Emperor of the Universe. It was quite odd. Pictures were forbidden. Nobody could take pictures, because it had to be an absolute secret. At that point he became God, in his eyes.”

___________________________________________

June 6, 2010

UTS Professor Oh Yong-taek spoke about the time of Danbury.

Tim Elder translated:

“Particularly when Father was in Danbury in 1985, on March 16th by the lunar calendar, Father was given a temporary furlough out of Danbury. And he came out of Danbury briefly, it was a very brief time. Father and Mother met, they then put on robes at that point and they put on crowns and they held a coronation ceremony at that point.”

___________________________________________

Moon admitted his guilt in court in 1955; started two year jail sentence

Moon asked his disciples to raise money to get him out of jail and to purchase a FAKE “certificate of innocence.” He was unable to use the same tactics in the United States in the 1980s.

___________________________________________

‘Emperor of the Universe’ information in Japanese:

これが『統一教会』の秘部だ – 世界日報事件で『追放』された側の告発

副島嘉和そえじまよしかず (「インフォメ一ション」編集発行人)

井上博明いのうえひろあき (「インフォメ一ション」営業担当)

___________________________________________

Where did Moon get all that money from?

Moon extracted $500 million from Japanese female members

A huge FFWPU scam in Japan is revealed

FFWPU / UC of Japan used members for profit, not religious purposes

$80 million: 4,200 female Japanese followers allegedly deposited as much as $25,000 each in the Moon-controlled Banco de Credito in Uruguay.

400 Japanese men and women were flown to the US. “Each person took, I think, about $2,000,” Soejima said.

I was given $20,000 in two packs of crisp new bills to smuggle into the US

It’s been a full week since Ruri revealed the latest additions to the prison and in the meantime you’ve seen various people working on getting their decks back. It seemed from a distance that anyone who had to talk to Serena for their decks back were having a rough time. However, based on the brief glimpses of interaction between the Wardens and your fellow prisoners they almost seemed…normal? It was a hard thought to swallow, it wasn’t even that long ago that you watch them execute two people, one of them innocent.

Your thoughts were soon interrupted as your phone went off. Picking it up you were expecting to see one of the Wardens appear. Instead you saw Xiangshang Magician appear on your screen. She seemed a bit upset as she started to speak.

“Everyone, the Wardens have called a meeting in fifteen minutes. Please do not be late or else White Wing Magician will have to take action.”

With that said, the magician disappeared from your screen. It had to be something important if the Wardens wanted to see everyone in person. You immediately got ready to go see what the Wardens wanted. The thought of having to suffer through one of White Wing Magician’s punishment was motivation enough. The images of Yuuri being attacked by that dragon were still fresh in your mind.

You arrived at the designated meeting spot with plenty of time to spare. You glanced around and noticed that you weren’t the only one who ran over here quickly. It was clear to you that the idea of suffering a similar punishment to Yuuri scared people. In the meantime you tried to figure out why the Wardens summoned you here. The only plausible explanation you could come up with was that they were bored and wanted some more bloodshed. Though after the Costume Ball, the Carnival, and the construction of the duel arenas… could they really be that bored?

Exactly fifteen minutes later a gust of wind shot through the plaza and standing once again on the rooftop of the General Store were the four Wardens. Yuzu, Rin and Serena were all easy to see and seemed to be excited to be here. However, after a bit of concentration you were able to see Ruri hiding behind the other three girls. It almost seemed like she didn’t want to be here. Though that shouldn’t be right, she was one of the Wardens, one of the girls running this place. Your eyes had to be playing tricks on you… right? A loud clap snapped you out of your senses as you saw Yuzu draw everyone’s attention.

“Everyone is here? Good. Time to get this meeting started. Things have started to calm down around here and we are finding that a bit boring. So to liven things up a bit here, we are giving your next motive to kill.”

With a snap of her fingers, a black wave of energy rushed through the crowd. You instinctively raised your arms to protect your face despite knowing it wouldn’t do any good. The energy passed through you without any harm as you slowly lowered your arms. Flexing your fingers you didn’t feel any different and you glanced back up to your Wardens to try and understand what happened.

“I hope you are good with kids.”

Serena teased you as the rest of the Wardens seemed pleased with their work. Glancing around the group you finally realized what the Wardens did. The Wardens turned roughly half of the group into toddlers! After a few moments of watching the group cry out in confusion and concern, Serena cleared her throat to draw the attention back to her.

“Assuming that you aren’t blind or stupid you can see that some of your comrades were turned into children. They mostly have the memories of when they were a child but still retain some of the more impactful events that happened later in life. Now if you want to make sure that they stick around I suggest you start planning on shedding a bit of blood.”

Once Serena stopped talking, Rin stepped a bit forward as she surveyed the group. She didn’t seem too thrilled with something and that had you concerned.

“Though if you go after the children, you are a disgusting pig. So anyone who dies and is under the age of five will not count towards the motive completion. However, that also means that their death won’t be held against you in our eyes. So have fun and don’t forget the sleeping restrictions are still in place.”

With that said, there was once again another gust of wind and the four Wardens were gone like that. You glanced around at the remaining teenagers and adults with concern in your eyes. You weren’t sure how many people had experience with kids and with the sheer number affected things were going to get chaotic. Though there was something Serena said that rubbed you the wrong way.

What could she have meant by ‘them sticking around’?

Regardless of what she meant, you couldn’t focus on that right now. First things first, you had to figure out how to deal with this motive since you could already see some of the kids were on the verge of crying.

This is going to be a long motive.

Motive: A handful of the players were turned into toddlers until someone commits murder! Things can’t be that bad right? They are only children, however, the Wardens are known to add additional motivation if things aren’t moving quick enough.

Man Vs Food - Facts About 9 Insane Record-Breaking Food Challenges

New Post has been published on http://www.infolibrary.net/man-vs-food-facts-about-9-insane-record-breaking-food-challenges/

Man Vs Food - Facts About 9 Insane Record-Breaking Food Challenges

Competitive eating is something that intrigues, interests and disgusts in equal measure. For many of us it’s one of those “car crash” topics – we don’t think we want to see it or hear about it but we can’t resist.

That’s why Amica International decided to look in to the facts of some of the craziest record breaking food challenges they could find.

Bon appetite!

2001: Ken Edwards – Most Live Cockroaches Eaten in 60 Seconds.

The thoughts of eating a cockroach would turn the stomach of most of us – eating a live one even more so. Not a pleasant thought for the person eating or the cockroaches themselves!

But Ken Edwards from the UK broke this record live on TV back in 2001 by eating not one, but 36 of them in just 60 seconds!

Here are the facts:

36 live cockroaches eaten in 60 seconds.

The cockroach species eaten was the Madagascan hissing cockroach, which is one of the largest cockroach species (all the more to eat).

Adult Madagascan hissing cockroaches can grow up to 3 inches long.

That equates to almost 10 foot (3 meters) of cockroach!

2002: Don Lerman – Most Butter Eaten in 5 Minutes.

For most of us, butter is something we eat as an accompaniment. Spread on to bread or toast – it’s delicious. You might even want to add it to mashed potato or use it for baking.

Most of us would draw the line at eating spoons full of the stuff. Not US competitive eater Don Lerman.

In 2002 he broke the world record for butter consumed within 5 minutes by eating 28 ounces of salted butter in the time.

Here are the facts:

28 ounces of salted butter eaten in 5 minutes.

That’s the equivalent of 2 footballs!

It’s around 5,691 calories.

That’s more than twice the recommended daily calorie allowance for the average man!

2002: Takeru Kobayashi – Most Cow Brains Eaten in 5 Minutes.

Another thing most of us probably wouldn’t want on our plate is a cow brain. Just thinking about eating one is enough to turn your stomach. Not if you’re Japanese competitive eater Takeru Kobayashi.

He munched his way into the record books by eating a whopping 57 of them in just 5 minutes.

Here are the facts:

57 cow brains eaten in 5 minutes.

That’s over 11 per minute.

The cow brains eaten weighed 18lb (8kg)

That’s around the weight of a car tire!

2005: Alex Williams – Most Stinging Nettles Eaten in 1 Minute.

Ouch. Stinging nettles aren’t top on our list for dinner tonight. But sometimes you can’t go back on that bet you made down at the bar with your friends.

That’s what seems to have happened for Alex Williams, who pledged to eat a stinging nettle over 15ft (4.5 meters) if anyone could find one – and they did. Now he’s a record breaker!

Here are the facts:

5ft (1.5 meters) of fresh stinging nettles eaten in 1 minute.

That’s as tall as a small person.

2015: Kelvin Medina – Fastest Time to Eat a 12” Pizza.

Pizza is certainly a favorite for lots of people and it’s not unusual to try to outdo your friends by eating more, or eating it faster. But what does it really take to be a record breaker?

Kelvin Medina knows. He went through a series of elimination rounds before reaching the final and eventually, smashing the world record time for eating a 12” pizza.

Here are the facts:

12” pizza eaten in 23.62 seconds.

Eaten with a knife and fork.

Beat the previous record by over 15 seconds.

2016: Gideon Oji – Most Kale Eaten in 8 Minutes.

It’s time for a healthier challenge. Kale has long been hailed as a super-food, but we feel everything is best in moderation. Not so for Gideon Oji, who broke the record for kale eating at the World’s Healthiest Eating Championships in 2016.

Our guess is he certainly wouldn’t have been constipated for a while after this!

Here are the facts:

408 ounces of kale eaten in 8 minutes.

That’s the average weight of a 2 year old child!

Kale is packed with protein, fiber, vitamins A, C and K, folate, omega 3 fatty acid – the list goes on.

2016: Oleg Zhornitskiy – Most Mayonnaise Eaten in 8 Minutes.

Just like butter, lots of us love mayonnaise as an accompaniment to our favorite foods. It’s great on a sandwich or with some fries.

Despite our love of the stuff, most of us would probably turn down a bowl full served alone. Things are different if you’re Ukrainian born Oleg Zhornitskiy, who holds the record for mayonnaise eating.

Here are the facts:

4 bowls (128 oz) mayonnaise eaten in 8 minutes.

That’s the equivalent of 80 golf balls!

2017: Matt Stonie – Most Peeps Eaten in 5 Minutes.

Peeps are a sweet treat sold in America. They’re enjoyed at Easter, when many of us over-indulge in chocolate and candy.

Perhaps not quite so much as Matt Stonie, who took over-indulgence to the extreme to reach that world record.

Here are the facts:

255 Peeps eaten in 5 minutes.

7,140 calories consumed.

That’s almost 3 times the daily allowance for the average man, and what’s more, it’s almost all sugar!

2018: Joey Chestnut – Most Hot Dogs Eaten in 10 Minutes.

Hot dogs are much more appealing than cow brains or live cockroaches. Most of us will eat one or two in a sitting. One of the world’s most notorious competitive eating challenges is “Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest”.

The current record holder is Joey Chestnut from the US. But what did he have to consume to take the crown?

Here are the facts:

74 hot dogs eaten in 10 minutes.

That’s 444 inches (11 meters).

The equivalent of 2 giraffes!

It’s a whopping 21,460 calories.

Now you know the facts, do you think you’ve got what it takes to beat a record breaking food challenge? Maybe you’d rather not…
