Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.
Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.
Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?
IT'S OVER 9000!

Wasn't it a mistranslation?
In this one episode of Dragon Ball Z, the evil characters, Nappa and Vegeta are fighting the good main character, Goku. Vegeta has this doohickey that can tell you how strong someone is, or their "Power Level". Nappa, not quite so well equipped as his cohort, asks Vegeta what the scouter says about Goku's power level. After a pause (the scouter calculating Goku's power), Vegeta yells in the Japanese version "ITS OVER EIGHT-THOUSAND!!" However, when the English translators were doing their job, they misread 8000 as 9000 (it was written out, you understand). Everyone in America who watched the show in Japenese noticed this when the episode aired, and that became the joke, as it is.
At least, that's what I've come to understand. That might be wrong.
