It is time to give this thread some direction. Here are some topics we could discuss: -Current Events -The Internet -Western Culture -The English Language -Music, Movies, Television -Video Games -Japanese Culture -Anything Else
I wasn't talking about Naruto specifically. If anything, Naruto is one of the poorer shows I watch. I sometimes watch anime when I'm not busy studying or going to classes or partying.
Tenkarin will be taking on her sexy body figure just like Lindsay Lohan within a few years. She may go to Holliwood. I will be her husband and her interpriterter,
I think I understand a little better. Correct me if I'm wrong: Idols are upstarts who show potential to be famous in the future, so you root them on and hope that the best happens to them. Is that about the jist of it?
Yuck, those Naruto filler episodes...I stopped watching because of them. Why'd they go and do that anyways? The series was pretty damn good until then.
>>32 That's what I heard, but the last episode I watched was about 6 months ago, and they were doing fillers then. 6 months of fillers so the manga can get ahead?...seems a bit excessive.
>>34 i've read that japanese girls are more likely to have sex when in a foreign country due to that the guys there actually compliment them, and make them feel beautiful, while as japanese guys often never compliment females on their looks, and often comment on if they're not looking perfect. A reaction on a sort of emotional starvation, in other words.
this however is only what i've read. no idea how accurate this is. i doubt japanese girls are exceptionally easy to get laid with, though.
>>35 As someone who's only seen the first episode of Inuyasha, I have no idea what "pulling an Inuyasha" is. Could you please explain? Did they take an unfortunate turn in the story-telling due to a too hasty decision?
>>37 "Great" and "great". It's more of a matter of why people have sex. Some people have sex to feel better about themselves (as an ego boost), others to show commitment and strengthen the bond in a relationship etc.
Pulling an Inuyasha...Well...The Inuyasha manga is still being written, but the anime is over because the manga wasn't being written fast enough. The anime caught up to the manga so they decided to cut it off before the manga was over.
I wish that were true. I haven't heard anything about it, actually. I think that there are still too many idiots that actually support him (that 36%). In the American public's view, he hasn't done anything worthy of impeachment (but, the American public is a bunch of brainless sheep), although a few Americans who can actually see through the administration's bullshit (like me) would say that there are plenty of things he should be impeached for, including Afghanistan and Iraq. You could probably think of more if you live outside of the United States. The media here is shit, and that makes it very difficult for intelligent Americans (though it may seem like an oxy-moron,lol) to get the facts straight and see the rest of the world's perspective on what is going on here.
>>44 oh,Bush ! you are there. I've been looking for you for a long time. I have something to tell you. your foreign policy is the worst ever as compared with that of any other president in the U.S.history. If I were in your shoes,I'd retire from the politics as soon as possible. Shame on you !!
Sadly, as long as Bush's party controls both houses of the legislature, there is nothing that can really be done. There are new legislative elections in 2006, so something may change after that, but I dobut it - both parties take money from the same people and have a similar agenda so very little true change ever actually happens.
>>50 Let's just hope that the Democrats (or any party other than the Republicans) can get their shit together and run a worthwhile candidate that can stand up to whoever Karl Rove chooses to take under his wing.
I have a friend who supports Bush just because he's from Texas and got a farm there. I'd imagine there's something cool about him that people feel. Not funny that he's sending his cowboys to Iraq, though.
>>58 I think that a large amount of people blindly support him because he is the President, he is from the South, and he is the highest-ranking Republican. There are a lot of Americans who pride themselves on being patriotic, and some of them see not supporting the President as something un-American. That is what I have observed.
The chatting thread was put to an end, because it was not needed. It's the end of an era. English speaking people will have to learn Japanese if they want to be here in 2ch.
Warehouse man is in deep and melancholy by bad news on Emma Watson He believes she is a real angel who never drinks. So I want to tell you. idols and actresses are just girls who is taking on a bit more pretty. You mistake them angels. That's ver ridiculous idea! See the reality!
There are only two threads on all of 2ch where it is acceptable to speak English. I don't think you have to worry about foreigners taking over. I would also like to think that there are Japanese people who want to have English conversations that is more intellectually stimulating than "Are you cherry boy? I play waist shake" as we've seen on the "Dirty Talk in English" thread.
>>73 There are more than just two threads in English on this board. I think that is what was meant. Dirty Talk in English, Chat in English, Let's Talk in English (2 currently), Diary in English. They are not main discussions but minor dicussions.
Hello. I'm back! :-) In recent days, I am in absent for English learnner. Therefore, writing English messages is slightly difficult for me. I try to remember how I can write English.
as for cherry blossoms,They have already been out of bloom in Kansai district. Since I've been so busy lately,I couldn't afford to appreciate them in the end. It was a regrettable thing because I like cherry trees so much. When I look at them,somehow I feel lonely.
Last Saturday, Kansai was strongly covered with the dust that is from China and that is known Kousa. This was first experience for me. I know what China occures in now.
is there any white ppl here??i sutudy somewhere in overseas thinking of goin to uni here. in this country,there r full of racism n discrimination.since i came here,i seriously hate white ppl. those white ppl go"i dont like chinese cos they r rude n behaving so bad","i like japanese cos they r polite n have good respect for ppl"...but they cannot tell whos chinese n whos japanese. on friday night,every single time i walk down the main street, they play me a finger or shouting F word or some shit at me or my mates. but it doesnt happen when i with my white friend... wot i wana say is....do u guys think white tribe is the best on the earth? in my opinion,white ppl originally dont like yellow ppl n look down somewhere in their mind. and they cant get rid of this even they like japanese...well i dont even understand wot ta hell does"i dont like china but i do like japan"mean...??wots the difference between china n japan? we r all same asian arent we? let me hear ur voice plz Im sorry for my poor english n i also understand there r some white ppl who r very nice.im just talking generally...
>>83 fixed Are there any white people here? I study somewhere overseas and I am thinking of going to uni here. There is a lot of racism and discrimination in this country. Since I have been here, I have started to seriously hate white people. Those white people say "I don't like Chinese because they are rude and are behaving so badly" and "I like the Japanese because they are polite and have respect for other people", but they cannot tell Chinese and Japanese people apart. On friday nights, every single time I walk down Main street they give me the finger or shout the f-word or other epithets at me or my mates.; however, this does not happen when I am with my white friend. What I want to ask is "do you guys think caucasians are the best"? In my opinion, white people do not like yellow people and look down upon them in their minds, and they cannot get rid of this even thought they like Japanese--well I do not understand this. What the hell does "I don't like China but I do like Japan" mean? What is the difference between China and Japan? We are all asian aren't we? Let me hear your voice, please. I'm sorry for my poor English and I also understand that there are some white people who are very nice; I am just generalizing.
Even though this post was obviously flamebait, I figured I would fix it up as that is the point of this thread.
In fact, there exist a lot of differences between Chinese and Japanese (even though they are both Asian) This may be due to the education background. For Japanese, most of them nowadays received proper education during their younger ages, thats why they know what is meant by politeness, what should be done and what shouldn't be done. However, for those Chinese, since majority of them were quite poor when they are teenagers (of course, they are rich now but they were poor in the past), they were unable to receive proper education
It is understandable that we think Japanese are better than Chinese. Simply look at the streets in Japan and in China, and you may spot the differences.
Do you know whether this thread is closed? If closed, would I go to the "chat in English thread"? I'd like to make here funny. But I have no subject to everyone.
I think your worry is groungless. "Let's talk in English" will go on forever,that means it is immortal. of course it is too much exaggeration,though. I'm a big fan of this thread,so sometimes post up trashy jokes on it. Let's join hands and raise it up to be popular.
But what are the difference between those two threads? I thought this one was mistakenly created by someone who didn't know there has been a series of threads where you can write in English.
You know, this thread has been going on to part 2 until now. that means there are surely some amount of demands for this thread. I think those two threads have different characteristics each other. Anyway ,I like this thread better than "chat in English" because may be ,I 'm not confident in my English.
>>98 Hey,listen to me. I'm the guy who had a little conversation with you around noon. I'm boring. It's OK. But you seem to be a type of person who have no sensitivity at all. To begin with,I want to give you a proverb that you should learn, which is " so many men ,so many mind". That means there are so many different way of thinking among us human beings. I don't know whether this thread was made by mistake or not. but I'm sure it definitely has the significance of existence. you should know the fact that some people regard this thread as "chat in English"for beginners the strong point of this thread is that I dare say,It's "not so busy". Do you understand what I mean ? probably not. I'm getting a little bit tired,so Let's call it a day.
Hi,me again. It's not so easy for us English beginners to make a English sentence immediately and I'm a kind of person who care a lot about whether the sentece which I've just written is grammatically correct or not. When I write something on this thread ,I always keep a dictionary aside. and I'm also a sort of person who care a lot about others'comments for my postings. I'm getting a little tired...need a rest for a while. to be continued.
hey,you don't disturb me. anyway,as soon as I catch a glimpse of the posting for my comment, I feel an obligation to him for the kindness that he responded to me. but I can't write him back right away because of my poor English. and my frustration goes up to the limit. When I write something on "chat in English "thread,I aways have that kind of feelings. "chat in English" is relatively busy thread and people from abroad are there. Needless to say,they are extremely fluent in English. Wow, it's time I have to go to work. to be continued.
>>105 what are you talking about ? who do you think you are ? You piss me off. Are you trying to pick a fight with me ? OK then Come on ! I'll hit you with my fists Baki !! boko !!
>>113 Hey, what are you ? are you trying to pick a fight with me ,too ? although there are lots of crap threads everywhere, are you trying to treat this thread as the worst one ? Stop pestering me !That's enough ! I'm boiling over with anger !! if you do it again,I'll send you to the hell right away.
Well,I forgot something with anger. Whoops, I remember today is one of the garbage collection days. I have to take out my garbage at once. In my town,the collection days are Monday and Thursday and Manday is for burnable trash,Thursday is for both burnable and the non-burnable stuff. in addition,I should get the vacuum cleaning done for my room. my room is so messy,cuz' I'm so bad at keeping things in order. wow,there are lots of clothes to do the washing. could you help me hang out my stinky futon ?
>>115 regret to say, she is not my type. I saw a posting on "chat in English" thread yesterday,which was written by a guy who was Yukorin's big fan. He said,"I've just waken up the delusion that Yukorin is a true angel." I guess he is wanking with her right now.
First, shotting on middle area is more effective than that of the last because of balls of wc 2006. Second, No upset game have. Slightly upset game is T&T vs Swaden. I considered T&T was the weakest country. Although a referee gave them a red card, their difence hadn't broken against Swaden's offence. Finally, games referees broke is a few, Japan vs Astralia and Spain vs Ukline. The last have too many games referees broke, in particular, games relaied to South Korea.
According to today's news report, Kim Yongnam, reportedly the husband of Yokota Megumi, stated in the press conference that his ex-wife had suffered from mental illness and killed herself, and that he was really thankful N.K saved his life when he was drawning in the sea, denying he was kidnapped and taken into N.K.
uh..so dead...you can tell it from the date..one post on Jun 2, two weeks later there is another post and then two weeks later another post. It was left away in a slumberland. No active convo are going on here..
Not to dwell on that Yongnam guy all the time, but the media says he was being forced to tell lies by N.K, which always comes along. The thing is, N.K is controling its people, not to mention its kidnapped people.
>>131 No, he wasn't in front of them. The meeting was set up somewhere in N.K. and it's not her parents who went to meet Yongnam, but his(Yongnam) mother and elder sister. I suppose you saw them on the tube before.
polygamy? It is only justified when the wife can not get a child or has some disadvantages which can not be covered by other plus sides she has... well..but if that comes from the idea of religion, I have nothing to say. ppl respect their own religion.
opps Makichan and Yukorin. That's a good idea. lol
I didn't know japanese soccer team was poor like that. I'm goin to school in Australia, and after Japanese lost against Australia, many Aussie mates in my school laughed at me. I didn't do anything bad though...
>>140 You are going to school in Australia sometime and so, naturally, you still don't have any friend there, but you said they have already laughed at you. Hmm, this is a puzzle. I don't quite know what the answer is.
I surprised this article. Nakata is 29 years old. He has a potential to play football in Europa. At least he is a best player of Japanese. I don't know why he retired. But I'm sad for it. His careere have affected not only of Japanese football and also of Asian football. In particular, some players in East Asia signed to Europian football club.
I feel the end of the nakata era of Japanese football. Who will brighten up the new star of Japanese football?
>>148 Hidetoshi Nakata is no longer a brilliant player. No wonder he's decided to quit. I'd appreciate it if he would stop making money through TV advertisements. Let's leave him alone. That's what he wants now, I guess.
>>149 Nakata's performance is slightly bad after the peak between 1998 and 2001. But, I want him to brightened again. In the world, many players over 30 years old plays. I don't predict his retirement is farster than that of Kazu and Nakayama. To consider his character, no wonder he's decided to quit ,you write.
>>151 I'd miss Zidane when he retires. His performance is incredible. It would be a shame not to appreciate his performance any more. On the other hand, Nakata has been playing poorly these days. I don't think his performance will live up to expectations in future. What makes a great player really great is how to make an excellent retreat. In my opinion, his retirement is overdue. He should have walked away a bit earlier. Otherwise, he wouldn't have ben humiliated by Brazil to that extent.
My girl friend cried last Saturday. I blame her. She was not bad anything. I`m sorry for her. I aplogized to her for my bad attitude. But She don`t fogive my fault.
