Ask an American.

It's a long weekend for me, and there's a lack of English language text
on the English board - so!

Ask me anything, and I'll try to answer as best I can.
Note that you must ask in English - my Japanese is awful.

2 get!!
Are you a girl?

>>2

Sadly, no. I'm a big, tall (187cm) male.

Please type "fusianasan" in the name field.

>>03
It's ok. You are gigantic, dude.
Would you tell me what you are doing for Independence Day,
or what people usually do?

>>4
I post from multiple machines; all you'd find out is that I work for Yahoo!.

>>5
I'm going to a barbecue and eating lots of beef brisket and sausages;
we might go see fireworks later.

thx. That sounds good.

Hi,
I want to know about my friend's name.
He is Richard and his US friends call him Dick.
Why the nickname of Richard is Dick?
Please explain.

>>10
Sorry, I'm just an American and not a linguist.
Ha ha.

>>10
たいていのアメリカ人は多分それを知らない。ググったことがあるの？

>>9
花火いいですねえ。明日なのに、何食べるかまだ決まってないの？
I like the way American fireworks go crazy at the finale.

鈴木亜美が何でamigoなのかと聞くようなものか

>>10

As it happens, I'm an american _and_ a cunning linguist*.
In the 12th and 13th centuries, they had rhyming nicknames:
Rich -> Hitch
Rick -> Dick
(source: http://www.straightdope.com/mailbag/mdick.html -
which also explains where "dick" for "penis" came from.)

* 'cunning linguist' sounds a lot like 'cunnilingus'.

>>16
I have no idea what it is..

I just thought about something deep fried and heavily sugar coated.
Funnel cake? Is that what it is?

Do you think this sentence is correct?

It's natural that she don't agree with him.

>>20

It should be "doesn't", not "don't". Third-person subject.

Please write down the lyrics in English.
We Japanese have a sense of humor, nevermind.

Hi,merkin.
Do you like the males or females?
In this connection,I am a Japanese man,but I like the males.

Can I be my boyfriend?
I hope that you teach me English as my personal teacher and boyfriend.

Bye-bye,merkin.

>>24
Yeah, you can be your boyfriend, of course.
Richard loves Richard.

>>23

I tried typing it all, but the post was too long. Instead, look here:
http://www.adamandjoe.co.uk/gaijin_invasion.php

>>24
Alas, boys don't do much for me; they usually smell and taste weird to me.
Women are much better that way.

>>23
Thank you very much.

Hi,merkin.
As here is a BBS in japan,you'd better of talk in Japanese.
All persons in Japan must speak it.

If you want to speak in English,you have to go back to your country.

oops!

>>27
Thank you very much.

>>25
Fuck you.
you must be a neat.

I'm sorry.

>>26
Thank you very much.

Go home.

Go home.

merkin,don't forget WW2.

>>27
merkin,thank you very much for you respons.

Go to hell.

merkin,you are not an American.

>>37
Who can tell?

Go back to America.
I don't like American because of being like Bush.

Go home.

>>38
Fuck you.
I don't understand you say.

>>1
>my Japanese is awful.
Is it a joke,isn't it?

>>39
I thought at least half of the American people are against Bush, though.

>>42
>Is it a joke,isn't it?

it's a joke, isn't it?

>>43

>>39 is not talking about what you are thinking...

>>45
What made you believe American people were like Bush, then?

merkin,I'm so dangerous,as I'm a nationalist.

may I ask...How dangerous?

>>48
Fuck you.
So you are a Japanese,you have to talk in Japanese.

>>49
your english looks so weird...

>>43
There are not the anti-Bush people in America.

are you serious??

>>50
formerly,my english teacher told me your english is so good.

>>53
just let you know I am japanese.

>>52
this is a pen.

>>53
your× english is× so△ good
→MY english WAS REALLY good

American are Bush at all.

sorry but I have no idea what you want to say.

Go ahead.

そろそろ飽きてきたからsageろ

Hey,merkin.
Have you ever seen the Japanese talk in Japanese in America?

>>58
fuck you
you are a neat.

That's kind of you, merkin.

But remember, keep coming here regulary, please.

Hey merkim,please give me the latest CM of GoodWill.

May ask you how old you are?

I'm 38.
Hey merkin,
the best way to master Japanese is to make the Japanese friends
and boyfriends.

Come on.

Hey merkin,
I am a gay.I love you.

More than ten years has passed since I started to study English
to enjoy talking with American.

but I can speak English.

Hey merkin,all you have to do is to write and speak in Japanese.

I wonder what it's like to be a stalker with no space after punctuation..

give me a bread.

The Japanese are into “killing the competition”.

The small island culture made them into vicious people who like to subjugate others by force.

Survival of the fittest.

Always eager to show that they are the best.

Very difficult people to get along, unless you have the upper hand.

If they see you are stronger, they will bend over backward and be your servants.

Hey merkin,come on
Let's talk about a Japanese auther Yukio Misima with me.

Have you ever red his works?

I'd prefer Yukorin Ogura to Yukio Misima.

Do you know Misima?

He was a gay.

>>74
I think you are not good at English.

あんた達、下手な英語でアメリカ人いじめて楽しい？

あんたら日本の恥だ。

>>15
Thank you very much for your quotation.
I read it , but still, I don't know that the transformation from R to D.
Why not E and so forth.
Anyway, thanks !

>>80
(starting at the end...)
in English, rhyming is always [consonant][something] -> [another consonant][something]
So, Dick rhymes with Rick, but Reck does not rhyme with Rick.

>>74
I can't say I've read any of his works; he's primarily known in the US as being
"the crazy author who committed seppuku but couldn't finish it." I'd say the
best-known Japanese author right now is Murakami Haruki. (I've liked what I've
read from him.)

>>61
Yeah, pretty frequently, actually. There's a little grocery store by my house -
Nijiya Market - where I overhear people speaking to each other in Japanese.
It's not a big deal here to speak to somebody in a foreign language.

>>32
Note that their page has a bunch of grammar errors, though. :)

>>65
I'm 34. If you're insanely curious, I look like this: http://www.hidebehind.com/FC185F80

>>79
thank you for your sentiment. One of the reasons I posted this in the first place was to
see what kind of reactions I got; I was a little surprised that the "American go home" took
so long to show up.

>>64
CM is 'music video', right? I don't see anything on youtube, so I can't help you out. Sorry.

>>39
I don't like Bush, either. I think he's done more things to fuck up this country than anyone
in the past hundred years. He makes Americans look foolish, greedy, and powerhungry to the
rest of the world. I don't know why people voted for him the first time, and the only explanation
for his reelection is "he cheated".

What's worse in some ways is that I know some people who, when they go overseas, pretend to not be
American because they're embarrassed. That just reinforces the bad opinions people get.

How was you beef brisket?
花火についても報告しなさい。

>>83
Turns out we had pork ribs instead. They were quite tasty.
I didn't see the fireworks, as we were all inside talking, but I definitely heard them.

>>84
hey merkin, I'm very nice to meet you here.
So how's it going?

>>82
Merkin, CM is not short from Music Video but TV commercial message.

How have American people reacted to North Korea firing 7 missiles at the US.

>>81
So, for example, Fick will be fit your theory. Why Fick had not been
the nickname of Richard ?

Your rhyme theory does not work .

>>84
フルラックを３つくらい食べそうだね。
We had some fireworks from Korea.
No one didin't see them, though.

>>89
It was reported on TV that an old woman who lives in sado island saw it.

あれ朝焼けじゃないの？
♪朝早く布団の中で立つ物は♪

>>87

For the most part, they haven't really cared. This is mostly because the news here
said the missiles only flew a short distance. Non-American sources, though, have
said the test was much more successful. Some people think that the American government
is trying to downplay it, and make Kim Jung Il look like even more of a raving loon
than he already is.

>>86
I tried looking, but I couldn't find anything. Sorry.

>>88
My apologies; that's the best explanation I have. It doesn't make much sense
to me, either.

>>84
I've been way too busy. I'm visiting Tokyo in three and a half weeks to go
wander around and visit コミックマーケット. That should be interesting.
I'm afraid my Japanese will be awful, though; all the particle words are
driving me crazy.

Hey merkin,
Have you sent a brick to the White House to build a wall
at the Mexican border?

otaku kimoi

Hmm.

Merkin, do you live in the bay area?

>>93
So you're coming to Japan.
No need to worry about your Japanese. As long as you put です or ます
at the end of whatever you'd say, you probably won't offend anyone.
Actually, you might be treated more nicely when you are not that fluent.
Just a tip. Hope you have fun while you're here.

Markin,
Take me to Japan with you, will you? :D

>>94
Nope, because I don't think I'd be able to hit anybody.

>>97
Yes, I do!

>>98
Yeah, I've been told that playing up the "Stupid American" thing can get you
treated better. "You can use hashi? Ooooh!" The thing is, I want to experience
what the people who live there do for fun, do in daily lives, etc - and not
hang around all the expat areas. If I wanted to be around 馬鹿愛人, I'd stay
at home.

>>95
はい、わたくしは悪臭です.

merkin: hello from a fellow American and student of languages.

I am writing my hiragana flash cards as we speak... I am about 1/3
done.

I always thought if the Japanese had their version of an "alphabet"
song it would take so damn long. (>_<')

>>3 I am 193 cm tall. When I visit Japan I am going to hit my head a
lot. =/

>>98 merkin, before you go to Japan, read

http://www.gaijinsmash.net

It is very insightful. (^w^)

>>103
Unfortunately, he hasn't written anything new yet; you can get all the old ones from
http://omega.med.yale.edu/~pcy5/japanese/teachereditorials.zip however.

Merkin and Ihmhi are the same person?

>>105
違うと思う。

>>105
I hope not; I'd like to know if I were talking to myself.

>>107
You wish you weren't.

>>100
oops. I'm sure you just understated your Japanese. I'm not underestimating your
skills but just saying some people would like it when non-native speakers try to
get their points across in Japanese even if it's not perfect, maybe because we
know how so difficult it is for Japanese to master English that we assume vice versa.
When you show some understanding of our language, which is what I suppose you already
have, you are more likely to be treated with some respect and kindness in return.
You might be even treated to a nice sushi meal. That's how it could go. ;)

BTW, I didn't post >>109 in any homosexual context, just in case. lol

Hi, Merkin.

There was a movie called "The Color of Money" starring Tom Cruise.
Someone asked about it on this board.
What does the color of money mean?
Thanks.

Hi! merkin!

I have one question.

Why do you call 下院　House of Representative?
In Japanese, House of Representative means 衆議院。
(more like the senate).

Merkin, do you watch whose line is it anyway?

>>111
You know, I don't have any idea. Could be the secondary meanings of color, like 'semblance' or 'environment'.

>>113
I've seen both the original British version and the US one; I like the British one better, as I enjoy its comedians more.

Ugh, forgot to sign >>114.

>>112
It's partially a functional difference, partially semantic.
The US House of Representatives is not 'lower' than the Senate; the two are
roughly equal - unlike the 衆議院 and 参議院, the Senate doesn't have anything
the House can't block, and the other way around, too.

The semantic part: Americans (claim, at least) they don't like having people -
or branches of government - be superior to others. When the Constitution was
written, the Americans had had their fill of a supreme office (the King), and
set things up so that the various parts of government would be roughly equal
with each other. The usual phrase in English is "checks and balances".

>>113
best show ever! xD

Hi merkin,
what do you think of Presidente fox saying he wants to
move to Arizona and ride horses after he completes his term?

originally the lower house was on the lower floor of the court house in philadelphia.
that's why.

>>117
I haven't heard anything about that, and I can't find anything online about it, either.
It'd be real weird if that were true, though - I mean, why bother?

Yo soy caballero.

>>1
What should be asked?

Hello everybody! I'm an American

mate, this is the kinda board i was lookin for, where everyone uses English.

well then I have a question merkin. my major in uni is art history and Ive just encountered the word 'surrealism'.
Could you explain me what it means?

>>123
I'm not an American (not even in the sense Arrogant Worms sang about),
however I can try to explain the word to you...

What dictionary.com says:
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=surrealism
> a style of art and literature developed principally in the 20th
> century, stressing the subconscious or nonrational significance of
> imagery arrived at by automatism or the exploitation of chance
> effects, unexpected juxtapositions, etc.

Something that is surreal is similar to the kind of distorted reality
that you can encounter in dreams, warped and unreal, familiar yet
different in a(n often lucid yet for our reality) "wrong" way.
Surrealism is the movement/style that bases itself on that.

And as a art major, you probably would find the following interesting:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrealism#Surrealism_in_visual_arts
Reading from the start of the document may be quite interesting as well:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrealism

the word "surrealism" gives some clue to its meaning.
Sur is super in French, realism means to recognize a true nature of
an object and express it in a practical manner. Surrealists
express things in a supernatural (beyond reality) way.

>>125
That's a short and very good explenation ^-^

>>122
what kind of american are you?

Hey, it's another thread that I can post in! I'm an American, you can ask me
things, too.

I'm so American that I shit bald eagles and fart the "Star-Spangled Banner."

I found this thread deep under English forum.
So it might be a good idea to discuss something about America here
now that the thread "Ask THE American" is over.

There are other threads we can talk in English, too.
Let's keep those threads busy, too.

I didn't know Merkin has made this thread back in July.

merkin shouldve said this thread exists before

Then Americans, or Californians, rather,
how do you guys feel about having Arnold Schwarzenegger elected
again as a govenor?

I'm a California, and while I don't think he is the best possible
governor, he was probably better than Angiledes. I think Mayor Villaraigosa
should be our next governor. I'm going to vote for him if he runs,
which I think he will.

Haha... I am a "Californian", not a "California"!

>>133
To my Japanese eye, Angiledes looked sort of mean.
So it was probably good he lost.

you stink like chinks
go away
californian bouy

>>136
Chink? I'm white.

You stink like a macaca

A macaca?

Do you have politicians who are of Indian (not native Americans, but those from India) descent?
I have the impression that Indian people are more keen on becoming doctors or going into computer industry,
because they are good at math.

I've heard that it's considered to be a low rank talent if they are
on CF in US.

But do you know that top movie stars appear on CF on Japanese
TV? Cameron Diaz now appears in cell phone carrer's CF. Jenifer Ropez
on Shampoo CF now here in Japan. Looking back in the past, Arnold
Shwarzneger (sp?) was on instant noodles maker's CF dansing with
kettle in hands.

Silvester Stalone was on Ham company's CF. Reonard De Caprio was on
Card campany and automobile manufacturer's CF. Kevin Kostner on
Beverage (coffee) company's CF, Brad Pitt on Japanese Jeans and
automobile, beverage company's CF. Meg Rian, Richard Giar other top class movie
stars are on CF for Japanese audience.

You can check them here.http://www.japander.com/japander/index.htm
Or at youtube.

De Caprio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Qfe-8iNLR4
Meg Ryan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jnlgd71UKiQ

They intended to earn extra money but seems like they don't like it
if people in US have chances to see them on Japanese CF.
So some of their lawyers protest against youtube or Japander.

Do you know that they are on Japanese commercial films?

I've been wondering for a long time what Brad Pitt says in this CF.
http://www.japander.com/japander/pitt.htm

On this URL, right and 4th from the top titled "more for Edwin"

Genuine, Masterpiese, Yeahhh, Well, again I hold on this idea of authenticity,
finding some originality... ******** Freedom! 503

I don't understand ********part would you tell me what he says here?

>>147
You mean TV Ad? That's usually referred to as a commercial.

Not many people know that; but it's not uncommon for a star to endorse
(Basically, show up and talk for big cash) a product on TV. On the otherhand,
some actors are really low class.

Like, my dad. He's appeared in some TV commercials, usually only as an
actor though. He did the voice for a TV network ad, but it was for mexico.

>>146
say that in english, u fuckin jap

>>149
Does your father do those for a living?

>>82
You look like Rupert Jiles in Buffy!

>>131
The thread seemed to quietly die; I didn't see any need in resurrecting
it - especially since the way I phrased things implies that I was the
only American here, which is not the case!

>>152
My little brother looks more like him than I do. He's also more likely
to wear a suit.

Do you know what "bukkake" is?

>>153
You kinda remind me of Lennon in a couple ways XD

>>151
My dad does contract work. He works in entertainment and interpretation.
Since the area he lives in has a lot of people that speak spanish,
he translates a lot in court cases. He does acting sometimes; he plays
music a lot more often though. He plays keyboard for a few different bands.

>>155
The combination of entertainment and interpretation in court cases sounds very unique.
It sounds like a very good idea to have two extremely different worlds like your father~~

>>155
Is he playing keyboard in court cases with the bands as well?

>>156
Eh, well it doesn't really work well for him. He's pretty poor, he barely
scrapes by. I lived with him for about 7months, he really has no idea how to
spend his money. When he has a good paying job, he buys a lot of stuff,
when he has trouble finding a job he goes hungry or has his parents give him
money. He never pays child support like he said he would when my parents got
divorced. If my mom took him to court for it, we could very easily win
upwards of 25-30,000$ US. That's 3,538,820 Yen. I could get a nice car with
that much money... or half of a small house! Or pay an apartment for about
60 months...

When I lived with him, he didn't buy me anything except food. My mom
still had to pay for everything. Even for my birthday he didn't get me anything!
At least mom got me The Black Mages 1&2 ^^

He's really an idiot though.. he wouldn't let me talk to my friends
over the internet (Not on a PC... there was only one PC, it was 5 years old,
it didn't have internet access, and he *still* wouldn't let me use it..
even though i'm far better at PCs than he is), and I was just using my cellphone.
Of course, I took my cellphone to school and I had it in my room at night;
so i'd talk to friends anyway. Using emails on my cellphone...I'd sometimes
stay up to 2-3 in the morning, make him think i'm sleeping, and trade emails
with an Austrailian friend of mine. Or i'd message people on the bus to and
from school.

>>157
Haha, no.

Yeah. I mean TVad. I thought it's OK to say CF, meaning commercial film.

Would someone answer my question in >>148?

Does he say "roar?" The TV ad was aired long time ago and since then,
I couldn't catch that part.

The movie won't play for me.

Anyway, no one will understand CF, sorry. Some people will understand CM,
although everyone would understand commercial to mean a TV ad

how often do you americans jerk off for a week?
when i am a 16years old kid, i did it everyday.
but thinking that you americans gets down with a girl in your early age
you maight not need to masterbate so often.

>>165
Probably most of us everyday still, but those of us who know enough
about the internet and are interested in japanese enough to come here
I don't think we're the right crowd to ask.

>>148
I believe he's saying "parental", but it's hard to tell.

>>165
Depends on the person. I know lots of people who first had sex when
they were in their teens; I know a bunch of people who were virgins
until their twenties. From what I understand, sex is less shameful in
Japan than it is here.

>>167
"From what I understand, sex is less shameful in
Japan than it is here."

Why sex is shameful in the US?

When Commofotr Perry came to Uraga(?) for the first time,
Japanese locals wanted to make fun of them and they would throw
tons of magazines full of dirty pictures, which took form of
Ukiyoe, Perry was really annoyed because he was from Victorian
period and didn't want their men to get distracted by the Japanese
style of obscenity.

I'm not sure if this story was real but I read it somewhere.
I think Japanese are known for being less shameful about it...

>>168
people here tend to be really reserved about their private lives,
who they're dating etc.

people also tend to keep anything relating to bodily functions
strictly to those that need to know it.

I mean, they threw the pictures into the ships of the commodore's fleet.

>>168
Because of the Christian religion.

>>172
This is partially true. Chrisitian morality, for good or bad,
has and is a great influence on all Western cultures. And
Christianity does teach that sex before marriage, or any sex
not done for the purpose of procreation, is sinful.

Victorian ethics and morality sprang from the idea that a man
of proper breeding and high social ranking should rise above
his animalistic behavior and desires like having sex for
pleasure. This mindset continued for much of the 18th
century. In the U.S., beginning in the early 20th until the
late 1920's, there was a counter reaction to Victorian ideals
and a more free-wheeling attitude toward sex came about as
a new generation of people challenged the presumptions of
the older generation. Which, in itself, has happen time
and time again and tends to repeat.

It tends to repeat. Yes, hippies from 50's wanted to liberate
themselves from the traditional mindset.
John Lennon was in bed with his wife, when Vietnam war was the
centre of everyone's concern, wasn't he?

I'm a Japanese and I had the same thought as >>168
But the reasoning of religion is really persuasive to me while it's a little surprising.

I guess most Japanese assume Americans less shameful about sex only intuitively.
That's partly because we have been taught through our education as if Americans would always behave active, no matter what, unlike "shy" Japanese.

But I can kind of agree with you guys because majority of Japanese twenties wouldn't hesitate to talk about sex in daily life while I've seen Americans often reveal implicit shame and try to avoid talking about sex.
(I was thinking those American guys were just exceptional but that may be not true...)

>>175
I can only speak for myself and my opinion is that today most
Americans are conflicted when it comes to sex as opposed to
any feelings of shame or guilt (though there's still enough
of that). I think most people want to be frank and open
about sex and not make such a big deal about, but there's
still the idea that sex is wrong somehow. Not to mention
that many people would still consider it impolite to talk
about it or that it would not be "politically correct."

Probably it is not politically correct to have sex with someone professional
(prostitutes or call girls) but it seems all right to do it with your
boy/girlfriend. Talking about it too much and being exhibitionistic is a
different story.

Oh yeah. That's right.
Maybe I was making shyness and openness mixed together and complicated.
People want to be open about sex, no doubt www
And that feeling is surpressed for a lot of reasons: political, religious, or maybe parental.

Americans are interested in Japanese cultures most probably because of anime's and eroge's, right?

Hey, I haven't posted for a while. So sex is the topic, eh?

Well maybe I should leave for a couple days again...

Nobody knows of bukkake?

>>164
Thanks for the imput on TVad.
You need Quick Time to play it.

>>167
Thanks for your response. "Parental?" I can't hear "p" sound at all and
even if I played the clip again and again, it's hard for me to be convinced
that he is saying, "parental."
But since you are native English speaker, there's no point of casting a doubt about
it...

>>170
>people here tend to be really reserved about their private lives,
who they're dating etc.

I haven't had many opportunities to talk with Ameican so I can't say
from my own experiences.

But I have read more than once that American people talk about their
private life when they strike a converstaion even with a total stranger.

One of the Japanese writers who point the feature of American out
wrote that she wondered why American said so personal things to her
and got puzzled.

Japanese people never talk about their personal business such as
if they got divorced or somethig like that with a total stranger.

＞Japanese people never talk about their personal business such as
＞if they got divorced or somethig like that with a total stranger.

Who are ｙｏｕ ｔｏ　ｓａｙ　things like that　ｃａｔｅｇｏｒｉｃａｌｌｙ？　　
That's stupid.
Some talk, some don't.

>>186
>Some talk, some don't.

That's overstatement.

In general, we Japanese never talk about if we divorced or not
when we stirke a conversation with a stranger.

In the case of the Japanese female writer I referred to above,
she was at the airport wating for her flight when an American came
up to her and talked about her personal business on and on.

I am an American, and I have to say that there definitely are people
who don't hesitate at all to tell everyone personal things about themselves.
I'm often quite surprised by how much they reveal... I personally think
it is best to keep such things to yourself unless you know the person.

>>187
I'm Japanese and I'm saying that's not true.
What are you basing your opinion on?
If it's your limited experience, I have to say
there are lots of places you haven't been to in Japan.

>>189
Whatever...

Maybe you think you live in Japan but actually you live in a diffrent country
where total strangers talk about their personal things when they meet
for the first time.

Think again where you live and if it turns out that you live in Japan,
then make an appointment with psychiatrsit.

>>189
Well, "never talk about" is strong, however, in general,
Japanese are much more hesitant to talk about "divorce" than Americans, I think.

>>184
I couldn't make out the p myself - but there aren't any other words in
English that end in 'rental' - and if the ads are targeted to younger
Japanese, I can see how 'parental freedom' (i.e. freedom from your
parents) might apply.

>>185 >>187 >>189
One of the things I've been trying to learn is "what are the various
attitudes in Japan"? Japan is usually portrayed as one big monolithic
mass (i.e. everybody's the same), but that's obviously false. It's
hard to pick up on what people really think, though.

When watching SPEED GRAPHER, I found it interesting that at one point,
the US president said "It's Japan, we don't have to worry about what
the public thinks." - and I wonder if that's what Japan thinks of the US,
what Japan thinks of itself, or both.

>>192
Everybody is forced to be the same because it's more efficient to run the school,
company, or the nation.
Of cource we have a right to freedom of speech. It is constitutinally guaranteed
thanks to America. But in reality, we don't. 2ch is one of the few places that
you can truly be honest. That's why 2ch is so popular in Japan.

>>193
You can be different and express your own view and individuality freely
as long as you do your share as an individual in the society and take resposiblity in whatever you say and do.
Freedom is always associated with responsibility.
If everybody only does whatever he/she wants to do, that's called chaos, and that's what's
happening in 2CH.
Japanese should not exploit freedom by taking it superficially.

I wrote 194, and I'm Japanese, by the way.

>>193 >>194
What's the general attitude towards cosplayers and EGL and punks
and soforth? The images one usually sees of Japanese people over
here are those of salarymen (or their housewife/OL equivalent),
or strange and radical (like the EGL types), but there's never any
indication how many of either there is, or how the one group
interacts with the other (if they do at all.)

>>196
I have no idea what EGL stands for but those two groups don't interact.
Those crazy Shibuya girls are daughters of the conservative salarymen in
the former group. They don't talk to each other.

If you cosplay, you may want to hide that hobby from your colleages at
the office.

What does EGL stand for?

About cosplayers, this is my opinion, but many people, especially the older generation,
still roll their eyes at them. I myself don't understand their orientations (not feel
irritated or ashamed at all about them, though)
Anyway, I'm sure the number of cosplayers are not so large, but they got prominent
exposure for the past several years, so gradually people started to accept them IMO.

Eijiro , a popular online English-Japanese dictionary, says EGL is short for
energy grade line. This doesn't fit in the context at all and in the first place
I have no idea what energy grade line is. lol
Can you tell us what EGL means or paraphrase it, please?

>>196
I'm an ordinary office worker in Japan, and regarding
cosplayers, EGL, punks, etc., I think they are doing those things as their hobbies,
so as long as they don't cause problems, I think it's OK.
But what I don't understand is why they need to wear very similar clothing and make-up and
need to get together at certain places in Harajuku, Ikebukuro, etc.
It's like wearing a school uniform and go to school, isn't it?
If they want to express their identity and individuality, they should think about
something more original, IMHO.

>>199
Elegant Gothic Lolita.

>>200
SO, you know what the ELG thing is. Maybe it's something like
masquerading.

>>201
Ho, I didn't know that.
Put me right if I'm mistaken, but people who loves "Elegant Gothic Lolita"
wear a maid-uniform?

>>200
I watched on TV that Ikebukuro has become a sanctuary for fan girls.

>>203
I hope the follwing link for the Gotheic Lolita fashion will work.
http://msn.mainichi-msn.co.jp/header2-ent.armx?556359100000

205
Never mind, it failed.

What's the elephant joke?

>>200
The fact that you consider yourself "an ordinary office worker" is saying something.
Many Japanese feel they are nothing but ordinary, and they are glad to be able to say that.

>>208
It's saying something? What, exactly? If that's the way most Japanese are, then I don't see how it is...
Are you trying to say it's unusual that he calls himself an ordinary office worker rather than merely ordinary
without any qualifications?

>>192
I am the guy who asked what Brad Pitt says in the TV ad.
Your explanation makes sense. Thank you.

Now another question came up to me but now another discussion is
being made here so I'll ask my question in another thread.

>>208
If you are not comfortable with the word "ordinary," you could simply ignore it, because
I used it to be humble, that's all. (IMHO that I used at the end is another way to express your humbleness.)
If you prefer it if I say, "I am an extremely successful office worker," I wouldn't mind that
either.

we got enough of shits here in japan
so would you refraining coming over here?
enough is enough

>>212
(IMHO that I used at the end is another way to express your humbleness.)
I don't understand this part.
What do you mean by this?

>>214
I used the term "IMHO, in my humble opinion" to express my humbleness,
because I didn't want to impose my opinion to others.

>>175
This is probably because most of the American media
coming to japan is from "hip" things, like MTV; which
have a lot of stuff like that.

>>181
Well yes, anime and manga have drawn a lot of people into Japanese
interest...what's eroge?

>>184
Well, again, I can't play the file properly, but if you
can't hear the "p" there's a possibility he's saying "A Rental"; like
a rental car or something.

>>193
That's what they try to do in the US too;
that's why I'm homeschooled.

>>210
Go ahead, ask, we can talk about more than one thing at once!
That's what we're here for; answering questions. At least I am..

>>214
Being humble is basically accepting that you're nothing special;
that you're just another person; not treating other people bad
because you're "better" than them; not bragging, etc.

>>216
WOW, good morning!

>>217
This reminded me of Azumanga.....
Osaka:"Good morning, Musume!"
Tomo: "...?"

Man, I want to watch my DVDs again.

What should we do for the leftovers? Keep them in the fridge for now.

Freezer is better.

Why American people tend to dislike French people?
Can you distinguish beteen Korean, Chinese and Japanese without talking?
Tell me real thing.

>>221
Some Republican conservatives don't like them because they didn't support the war against Iraq.
Americans in general sometimes dislikethem because they're often considered very rude and snobbish.

I myself cannot distinguish between Koreans, Japanese, and Chinese by looking.

Nobody can distinguish them clearly just by looking.
There are some tendencies on how they look, but that can't be a sure thing.

Thank you for telling real things.
well, How did the general American think about Prime Minister, Koizumi?
Funny elder man? or Stupid man?

what the fuckever it may be.....

Dose the american commonly use a word, "copy that." like Jack Bauer in TV drama, 24?

Why many American people say "I speak Japanese" when they only know greetings and some
simple survival Japanese phrases?

>>224
I don't if many Americans would even know his name, or the names of any other foreign leaders
for that matter.

>>226
I don't watch that show, but "copy that" or sometimes "I copy"
is something you only say if you're talking on the radio.
It means "I understand."

>>227
I guess they just want to impress people.

"I don't if" -> "I don't know if"

>>228
Thank you for your answers.
You are great.

>>228
Thank you!

You're welcome.

>>226
"I copy"/"Copy That" == 「了解」

you bullshit

>>221
Most Americans don't mind the French; but
we make fun of them for being cowards a lot.
It is true that they are considered snobbish
sometimes, but that's not usually what people
are joking about with them.

>>224
"Prime Minister Koizumi? You mean Blair..?"
would be the average response. Even I don't
really know who he is...
I bet you, if you asked the average American, they'd
assume that Japan is ruled by an Emperor or a King.

>>226
It's not common, but it's not really rare either.
You see it more with people who use radios alot,
like truckers, police. Copy that means you've heard
it; 10-4 is another thing which is basically the
same.

>>227
Either bragging, or vastly overestimating their
abilities. I would, personally, never say I speak
Japanese. I wouldn't even say I speak "some" Japanese.
At best i'd say I speak a 'little' Japanese, usually I say
i'm learning Japanese.

The fact that you guys are communicating in a proper way!
I mean, in 2CH, people usually just post whatever they have in mind and don't care or listen
to what other people post, let alone conversing with other people.
That's why I thought it amusing that >>236-239 are communicating as if in
a real life, lol!!!

>>235
The Amerian doesn't know Japanese Prime minister,Koizumi deeply loves America
and Elvis Presley? He loves America like a devoted dog to America.
The American doesn't know the news about "love me tender at Graceland"?

>>245
It was reported in American news.

I want to understand the difference between
"Most of the American"and "Most American".

Could you teach me?

>>246
So, I want to know general American's real reaction to the news.

Just as Japanese people don't know the prime minister of Australia,
people don't know Japanese PM.
That's what I think.

>>248
The headline tells everything: "Bush vistits a Japanese man in a madhouse."

>>238
Hello!

>>245-248
It might've been in the media, but I doubt
many people remember it.

>>247
Not much of a difference. Although, in most cases,
it would be "Most Americans".

>>251
Not much of a difference? Then, there IS a difference !
Please go in to the details of it!!
I want to know!!!

"most of the" is more restrictive than "most,"
e.g.
O Most of the Americans in this room are.......
X Most Americans in this room are..............

>>252
>>256
Pretty much. "Of the" doesn't really add anything significant,
it just takes longer to say.

I tried sushi a couple times, hated it. Although I did eat the green
paste on accident once, thinking it was a vegetable...

Raw meat doesn't taste very good to me.

You will like sushi if you change the raw fish to beef steak,
the rice to potato, and the green paste to ketchup.
and You will know how Japanese food is tasty.

I would think that virtually every American has heard of them.
Sometimes they're not the best books, though. You can see customer
reviews on Amazon, though, so that shouldn't be a problem.

>>338
I think in general Americans are ready for it; but
the people who vote the most might not be...

>>340 >>342
Yeah, i'd say nearly everyone who lives here has heard of them at

I feel lonely having no one to talk to.

>>342>>343
Thank you for the imput again.
Just reading customer reviews is good for a reading practice as a
English learner.

Actually, I've read Chicken Soup for the Soul. I thought the stories
in the book are too good to be true and felt awkward. My impression was
that there's not so many good people like ones introduced in the book.

I know Chiken Soup didn't end in just one book. It's a series, right?
Chicken soup for teenagers, chicken soup for bra bra.... on and on.

I for one, am not interested in buying another Chicken Soup for bra bra.
One is just enough.

>>345
Yeah, Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul; Chicken Soup for the Cat Lover's Soul,
Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul; Chicken Soup for the Axe Murderer's Soul,
Chicken Soup for the Daughter who just Ran Over her Father's Dog
and Has to explain Why Scruffy Won't Fetch; And so on.

Personally I don't like them, they're too sappy, and from what I
remember, they have too much of a religious orientation for my liking.

Yes, I made them up. Although Chicken Soup for the Axe Murderer's Soul
would be an awesome book. I wonder if it would violate copyright to
make it...

How do you celebrate Thanksgiving?

Are you gonna eat turkey? Family gathering?

No, I don't celebrate it because I'm a fucking Jew,
but my family have some monkey brain together to celebrate
and be thankful for evil spirits.

#repeat after me#
hyf270 is a fucking Jew! yay!

blowjob

Oh,duck my sick!

>>357
You seem to be mixing Halloween and Thanksgiving.
I doubt Thanksgiving is religious event, too.

I wonder if fish pee in the sea.

>>356
Yeah, we eat turkey, our familes get together. My mom always takes me
to her mom (my grandmother)'s house and we eat there. She makes
good food, although her turkey is too dry for me to like it..

Honestly I don't like my grandmother that much, but
for only a couple days at a time she's ok.

The day after Thanksgiving, there's usually a lot of Christmas
sales (since Thanksgiving is typically seen as the start
of the Holiday season; and it usually is seen as ending after New
Years day), so we're probably gonna wake up early
and go shopping.

While that's kinda fun, and the food is good, it's a four hour drive
each way to my grandmother's house.

You can read more about how most Americans celebrate
Thanksgiving here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thanksgiving

>>361
Well he is a retard; but I read once that Thanksgiving
was originally founded as a religious holiday. Of course,
it's not celebrated as one usually, although people
do thank god and pray sometimes.

I heard YMCA is a gay song.
What other songs are considered to be gay songs?

I'm not really familiar with gay songs, sorry... Listen to Merkin! (>>384)

>>387
I'm sorry?
Lots of Samurai are not gay.
Keep your hateful, hurtful, bigoted, racist comments to yourself, please.

Merkin is right. The samurai were all gay.

>>389
If you know anything about Samurai you will know that having trysts with young men was very popular. It's not a racist comment it all, it's a fact that there were many samurai who engaged in homosexual relationships. 春画 anyone?

Clergy sexual abuse and homosexuality in the Catholic church is also a very
well known fact.

>>388
I see. Merkin answered the question. Thank you and merkin.

fuck me

!

Merkin, let's meet behind the old abandoned movie theater. I have a
length of chain that aches to be wrapped around your skull. Me?
I'm Gore Crank of the Spit Vipers and also their leader. I don't
take kindly to your kind snooping and sniffing around my piece of
turf. Unless you want to beaten like the dog you are, I suggest
you find some where else to take yourself. If not, we can settle it
at the movie theater at midnight tonight. Just you, me, and my
baseball bat. And that goes for you as well, hyf270!

VIPERS RULE!

How many kinds of Japanese vegetables do you know?

daikon
fuki
moyashi
edamame
kaiware
matsutake
shiitake
nappa
takuan

>>399
I'm Japanese, but I'd say there is no such vegetable as "nappa."

DAMN, I'm not 399, but until just now I thought there actually
was a vegetable called nappa. I'm really shocked. Flabbergasted.

>>401
Then what vegetable did you imagine when you hear the word "nappa?"
Is it Hakusai, Shungiku, Horenso......., or all of those leaf vegetables?

It's used to refer to GREEN vegetableS.

>>402
Something like horenso or komatsuna. I thought nappa was poor man's horenso.

>>403
LEAF vegetableS.
Because there are green vegetables but not leaf (菜っ葉）vegetables, such as
green pepper, cucumbers, etc.

>>402
Napa is just one of many names for Chinese cabbage.

>>406
Chinese cabbage=Hakusai, isn't it?
So Nappa=Hakusai?

Poor Hakusais are being discarded because they are
too abundant.

What is "champ"?

Shop like a champ on Black Friday
http://shopping.yahoo.com/holiday/blackfriday_1.html;_ylc=X3oDMTE5a281dWZoBF9TAzI3MTYxNDkEc2VjA2ZwLXRvZGF5BHNsawNibGtmcmlkYXlwYWdl

Now, I know. It means champion.^^;

I wonder what Black Friday means.
I know Black Monday. It was when New York stock exchange market
nose-dived and that led to World Depression, right?

It seems Black has a connotation of something being bad.
I have seen the expression, "Black Friday" around Thanksgiving on
some websites.

Thanksgiving is on Thursday and Christmas shopping starts right
after Thanksgiving, which is from Friday right?

My guess is people are bothered by what to buy for Christmas gifts
so you call it Black Friday.

Is my guess right? Tell me what it means. Thank you.

>>411
You're correct that the "Friday" in "Black Friday" means the
Friday after Thanksgiving and the unofficial start of the
holiday shopping season. However, the "Black" used in "Black
Monday" and "Black Friday" refer to two different things.

"Black" in "Black Friday" means that businesses open that day
are going to make a huge profit because so many people are out
spending money and shopping. In this case, the term "Black"
is making a reference to the black ink used in old adding
machines.

When an accountant for a business would punch in the sales and
debits into an adding machine, the ink color would indicate
whether it subtracted or added to the total balance of the
business. Black ink indicated increases while red ink
indicated losses.

Once everything was added up and say, a business was making
a profit, the final total would be in black ink and the owner
would say the business was "in the black" or, more
literally, "It's making money!"

On the other hand, if the balance indicated you were running
the business at a loss, the total balance would be printed in
red ink and the business owner would say "I'm in the red" or
"My business is in debt."

But "Black" is also often used to imply or express something
negative as you pointed out with the example of "Black Monday"
and the Wall Street Crash of 1929.

>>412
Thank you VERY much for your detailed answer!
I am really impressed.

So the Black is as in "in the black." That makes sense.
I am glad you explained in detail where these explations,
"in the red" and "in the black" originally come from.

Thank you very much!

When Black Friday comes
I'm gona dig myself a hole.

>>412
I don't know if you already know this, but
it is also the case in Japanese that when one is making a profit,
it's called "黒字"(black character) and when one is losing, it's
"赤字"(red character).

>>412 is pretty much entirely correct as far as I know.

It's common to say "In the red" when you're in debt, but
"in the green" is more common nowadays for profit. Green
is more common to use on charts for good things than black.

I heard this sentence on the TV shows.
I have no idea, but I want to know this mean.
Would you tell me?

Here it is ;
"You should be kissing my ass, you're dead meat, dude."

>>416
Are you really sure about "in the green" for profit?
Doesn't it mean "young and full of energy" rather than being
profitable?

>>417
kiss my ass
=Kusokurae! or Shine! or Fuzakeruna! etc.
you're dead meat
=Inochi wa naizo
dude
=Omae

Do you still have Yaohan in the States?

>>416
Hey. Hey, you. What are you doing? I told you to buzz off, buddy.
This turf belongs to me and my gang, the Spit Vipers. Do I have to
rearrange your face? I can ball up my fist pretty tight and I ain't
afraid of bashing your teeth in, hyf270. Unless you want a crater
where your nose is, then I suggest you stay out of my turf! You can
find me at pool hall tonight if you think you can change my mind!

VIPERS RULE!

>>421
If this is your turf, would you care to answer the question >>418?

>>421
What are you, some Grease reject?
Go back to fagfagdance school.


>>418
I've never really heard it used that way.

>>417
"kiss ass" is generally used to represent
being overly nice to someone, insincerely,
to get them to favor you. Like, "Tod kisses
so much ass, he'll be CEO before long."
"dead meat" is generally just a taunt,
something a school bully would use.

>>423
you ugly kid get out of here

>>419
>>423
Thanks a lot! I understand clearly.

You are welcome^-^

hyf270 is wrong. "In the green" is not used to talk about profit.
It is always "in the black". hyf270 doesn't know much about financial things
because he is a high school dropout. Be aware that his information is often wrong.

I see hyf270 is total green ha ha

>>427
Thanx.

How much money do Americans spend on Christmas presents in general?

>>427
Wrong on all counts.

>>430
Well it depends on who's buying what for who.
Like, people will typically spend more
on their kids than on their siblings.
Of course, better off people buy better things.
Like my mom might buy me something 100-200$,
but her sister might only buy her son something 50$

>>431
Go to hell moron and dumbass

>>432
いい加減にしてやれよ。www

>>423
Now you've got me really angry! No one insults Grease!

You don't understand the feel of a well coifed pompadour or the
slick and heavy contours of a fine leather jacket. That's why
you're a punk and why I, Gore Crank, am the leader of the Spit
Vipers and we control this turf, geek!

If it wasn't for the fact my ride's chrome is a bit dusty and I had
to stay at the garage to polish it again, I would come over to your
side of the tracks and challenge you to a Spanish Knife Fight
outside of the old train depot.

Hi, merkin

I searched on Google using keywords "flag" "fold" and
"widthwise" or "lengthwise".
I found the same way of folding a rectangle is expressed
by opposite words "widthwise" and "lengthwise".
Why? Are both technically correct?
Thank you in advance.

I did advanced image search.

Hey, look.
Jasrac is coming.

David Becham and a Japanese girl singer appear in the clip.
I'd like to ask native speakers here what the girl says in English at 4:35 in it.
I can't recognize most of her English words, she connects every word she utters, so
among the words in question all I can find out is, ...open...after noon...
Please help me out.

i'd like to ask the american how he stumbled onto this website, and if he's representing other americans correctly [being one myself]

>>460
She is saying "And all the bars open from like one o'clock in the afternoon."

>>461
I work with American tycoon Bill Gates. He owns the Internet and
being one of his grateful employees who actually get to see him on a
weekly basis, I have access to his database of websites. 2ch seems
to be very active and has many users, so I decided to see what all
the fuss was about. I hope you are all grateful he's not charging
rent.

Bill Gates doesn't own the Internet, dumbass.

>>464
He most certainly does. Why do you think he's the richest man
on Earth? You think he made billions off of software alone?
But it's a secret that he owns any part of the Internet
though, so let's keep it restricted to this board.

>>465
Pshhh. We all know it's Al Gore.

Why does Al Gore keep rediculed by americans?
I think he should be the next president of U.S.
I read his book on global environment.
It was really inspiring.
Global warming is THE mo..

460
Ok, I think I'll post somewhere else. Thank you.

>>460
I concur with >>462. Also, it's amazing how when she speaks in
Japanese, her voice is very high - but when she speaks in English,
it drops down an octave or two. (This is pretty common, so I'm told,
but I hadn't heard it quite that dramatically before, or unprompted.)

>>457
The problem is that 'length' and 'width' are not necessarily
opposite to each other, especially if the long side of a rectangle
is horizontal. That said, I don't think I've ever heard anybody
use the word 'widthwise'. If it were me giving the directions, I'd
say "on the long side" or "on the short side" to avoid ambiguity.

>>461
I'm not _the_ American, merely _an_ American.

Anyhow, I'd known about 2ch for quite a while; I've been browsing
Japanese websites since 1999 or so (even though I could read even
less Japanese then.) I think I first tried looking around 2ch
after Shii's song became popular, though. I wasn't really interested
in becoming active, however, until I found the 2ch portal at
http://4-ch.net/2chportal/ (which describes lots of the culture
and JIS art in detail.)

Thank you, merkin

>>467
Al Gore, unfortunately, got a lot of bad press prior to and
during his campaign for the Presidency. He made a
statement how he signed a bill as a senator that effectively
gave birth to the Internet that was blown out of proportion
and it turned into a misattributed quote saying he had
invented the Internet.

Another bad mark against him was when he kissed his wife,
Tipper, over passionately and intensely while at the
Democratic National Convention. It made him look like he was
trying to hard to show his more human side to the voting
public.

Plus, Al Gore, while regarded as an intelligent man and
genuinely concerned for the enviroment, is also seen as being
very boring and dull. He had that image even when he was
Vice-President under Clinton.

>>467, a lot of people in America would like for Al Gore to be the US President.
But unfortunately, much of America is ignorant and supports ignorance.
I blame the educational system here.
I would not be surprised if the US became a "third world" country because of this.

Iran war will possibly take place.

Korean people say,“Korean women were taken away to brothels by Japanese people.
There is the evidence. (1)” park6.wakwak.com/~photo/image/ianfu01.jpg
But it’s not true because they are mere advertisements saying “Wanted comfort women.
Salary of 300yen a month, and you can borrow 3000yen.”
By the way let's think about the value of yen in 1944.
www8.plala.or.jp/shinozaki/s19-1944.pdf
A policeman’s salary was around 45 yen a month then.
A policeman’s salary is around 200,000 yen a month today.
www.keishicho.metro.tokyo.jp/saiyou/keisatsu/keisatu.htm
200000÷45=about4444
In short the rate of price increase is 4444 times.
300yen×4444=1333200yen…
It’s amazing! A comfort woman’s salary was 1330,000yen in current value.
And she was allowed to borrow 13,300,000yen.
Assuming 1yen=10won, “Salary of 13,300,000won! You can borrow 133,000,000won!”
Whoever read this knows that they wanted to be hookers.
Can this be expressed as “TAKEN AWAY” ?

THOSE LAWS OF THAT KOREA

《 ABSOLUTE LAWS 》
THE FIRST　　LAW　In the range from an individual to a company and even a nation, who ally with Koreans will lose for certain.
THE SECOND LAW　Regarding THE FIRST LAW, when Koreans go off by themselves, only Koreans will lose.
THE THIRD　　LAW　Regarding THE FIRST LAW, who come to be hated by Koreans should be able to avoid the law,
　　　　　　　　　　　　　where the rate of possibility you can avoid it, corresponds with the level how you are hated.
THE FORTH　 LAW　Regarding THE FIRST LAW, who once break off with Koreans should be able to defeat the law.
THE FIFTH　　LAW　Regarding THE FIRST LAW, it will not be invoked on those who do business with the unilateral approach
　　　　　　　　　　　　　against Koreans.
THE SIXTH　　LAW　Regarding THE THIRD and THE FORTH LAW, who once break off with Koreans should be able to expect
　　　　　　　　　　　　　rapid recovery or uptrend in all aspects including the fortune and the achievement and so on.

《 GENERAL LAWS 》
THE FIRST　　　LAW　Everything invented or popular in Japan will be insisted as Korean or invented by Korean in some ten
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　years or even some hundred years.
THE SECOND　 LAW　Those who are popular or talented in Japan are for certain insisted as Korean residents in Japan.
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　However if Koreans hate one of them, the person should be able to avoid this law for sure.
THE THIRD　　　LAW　The more Korea is featured in a Japanese TV program, the more people stop watching it.
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　In other words how often Korea is on TV is in inverse proportion to popularity of a TV program.

THE FORTH　　 LAW　Those who call themselves Japanese domestically or overseas though nobody asks their nationalities,
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　are not likly real Japanese.
THE FIFTH　　　LAW　 All unfavorable events for Korea are shifted blame onto other countries.
THE SIXTH　　　LAW　 A Korean president: policymaker, when end of the term is close, is likely to be involved in a political

THE EIGHTH　　 LAW　Power of those laws tends to be strengthened drastically in every sixty years.
THE NINTH　　　 LAW　Those laws are invoked even on Koreans if they have the Japanese mind.
THE TENTH　　　LAW　Those laws never be invoked even on Japanese if they have the Korean mind.
THE ELEVENTH LAW　Those who get deeply involved to that country or get symbolic as being for sort of a poster child
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　and so on, themselves become the law invokers and invoke them directly or indirectly on people who
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　contact with them.
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　As those kind of invokers come for us regardless of our wills, we are unable to avoid them in most cases.
THE TWELFTH　LAW　UN and ICJ never be affected and ruled by those laws.
THE THIRTEENTH LAW　Japanese prime minister, members of the ruling coalition and their families are not ruled by those laws

Rain for blaming, wind for cursing
Even snow and summer heat for envying
With strong square chin, desire is neverending
Never shutting up, loudly always shouting
Four bowls of sorghum, a lot of kimchi, a bit of gochujang a day
Money minded on everything around trying not to pay
Feeling understanding with halfway experience, in a second memory disappears
In that peninsula, by the bare mountain, from small thatched shack it appears
Finding out Takeshima in east sea, it's there to thrust a flag acting big ugly
To master in west, it's there to pay respects willingly
To dying Viet Cong in south, it's there with a gun to tell not to be scared and kill them with smiling face
To brother in north with drought and famine, it's there with modesty to pass them Japanese rice
Ordering apology for drought and reparation for summer cold
All over the world, skunk zombie is what it's called
Got no praise ever
Got no respect ever
Just like that, I've already been ever

◇Free Diversified Aspects　　　Masayuki Takayama　Professor, Teikyo Uiversity
▼Negligence
Mr.Kun-Tsan Tsai, author of 'Taiwanese and Japanese spirit', was an army
special volunteer. He was in the deep mountain in Kyoto at the end of the
World War II.
He wrote the chaos from the end of the war to the end of the year when he
returned to Taiwan.
They became the "victory nation" overnight and were offered superfluity of food.
He made grilled rice balls for starved children.
He sometimes went "all the way to Kyoto station" to hand them out to children.
"At one time he saw the people handing out the naval thermal vests to children.
Then he talked to them and found they were Taiwanese volunteer as he was."
However Koreans, who had been in the force he had belonged, "in a group broke
into and robbed food and clothe warehouses."
"They were domineering to hit dispirited Japanese while saying they were the
victory nation."
Japanese prepared special trains for the victory nation.
An entire vehicle was provided for even a few passengers.
They, the victory nation, called a stationmaster or a person in charge when
they found a blunder by Japanese, then assaulted them by beating and kicking.
Sadanori Shimoyama, a director of the traveler bureau, was one of those were
gang bashed by them and he was seriously injured to the testicle explosion.
The repatriation program for this victory nation was done on the order of GHQ.
F.Roosevelt who had died four months before the end of the war left the will
saying "confine all Japanese in four islands and destroy them".
As they wanted to destroy only Japanese, unrelated people as Koreans etc. had
to be banished.
At this time all Koreans who had come to Japan by so called "requisition" were
supposed to return to there country. However in fact all of them did not return.

Hogyu Lim wrote how they were in those days in 'The third country poeple's
commercial code'.
"The third country people is a word that indicates Koreans in Japan during prewar
and postwar days. Most of them dreamed the success in Japan and came across the
sea during the period of confusion before and after the World War II."
Their occupations were "from what they were able to get cash such as salvage,
pachinko or so called Turkish bath etc."
Another important cash business was a crime syndicate.
The story of N.Zapetti who ruled the dark world of postwar days started selling
chewing gums is described in 'Tokyo under world'.
In this story, Japanese rejected chewing gums which were not their preference.
He tied up with a crime syndicate and made them threaten storekeepers to sell
gums. Therefore the chewing gum culture was established in Japan.
This crime syndicate was Toseikai that grew up rapidly after the war and its all
members were Koreans.
There are about 500,000 Korean residents now in Japan.
1650 among them are in prison. This number follows to that of Chinese in prison
which is 2000 among total 250,000 people.
The rate of Koreans receiving public assistance is 48 per 1000 people.
Compared with the rate of Japanese that is 12 per 1000 people, it's as much as
four times higher.
They came to Japan with success dreams but are now nothing but a trouble.
To deal with the increasing crimes by foreigners, the Ministry of Justice issues
a "residence card" in which a person's name and address etc. are written in
an IC. However, according to the report from Asahi Shimbun, "Koreans are not
included" in those "foreigners".
I receive an impression as "Ploughing the field and forgetting the seeds" from
that. Korean residents in Japan are given shameless preferential treatments that
are not given to any other foreigners.

For instance, if foreigners except Koreans are arrested for prostitutions, drugs
or crimes that lead to one or more years of penal servitude, they will be
immediately exiled. But a Korean resident is an exception.
Only they are not be exiled as long as they have not commited crimes that lead to
the seven or more years of penal servitude as homicide.
They explain the reason for this is their history.
In plain words, Japan owes them because they are descendants of kidnapped people.
Thus they take this preferential treatment for granted.
However, the kidnap by army is a fabrication made up by Kyungsik Park.
They are the descendants of people who came to Japan before and after the war,
and squatted as Hogyu Lim described.
There is no reason that they are distinguished from other foreigners and receive
preferential treatment at all.
But sensible Japanese did not say anything small-minded.
I compromise only Koreans who received the penalty of seven or more years of
penal servitude must be exiled.
Then how many Koreans have been exiled since the age Toseikai was active behind
the scenes ?
We have often seen, in newspapers, Korean names following "John Doe whose real
name is".
Expecting large number of criminals have been exiled, I asked the Ministry of
Justice of the exact number.
However the answer was, "The number of exiled Koreans since soon after the war
until now is zero because the minister has never stamped for approval."
Though it's well known that Seiken Sugiura refused the signature for execution,
I didn't know any Justice Ministers had not banished Korean felons.
Isn't this the bigger security concern in Japan than to refuse an execution ?

Though these guys sing the same song,
they are exact opposite in intention.

An online economic newspaper e-today reported on the 25th that single South Korean men
performed 'Naked body check' on women while they chose their brides in Vietnam and the
men's behaviors were taken up as a big issue in the locale.
According to an English version of a local newspaper "Young people" issued on that day,
some of South Korean men who had arrived at Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam met 66 young
Vietnamese women with a view to marriage in the middle of this month.
These women were introduced to men by a local marriage broker.
At this time South Korean men surprisingly performed so called roguish 'Naked body check'
on Vietnamese women. Though there were the cases local unlawful marriage brokers received
the high referral fee and set up "Group meeting for marriage" for single men from oversea
and troubles were caused, this is the first time the disgraceful behavior like this 'Naked body
check' was discovered. The Vietnamese police reportedly arrested two South Koreans on the
site in relation to the case. As such a case was reported through media, local people are
violently repulsing it and the newspapers wrote that depending on circumstances even the
damage on the national image would be concerned.
Earlier at the beginning of this month, South Korean men were arrested in Ho Chi Minh City
while choosing brides out of 118 Vietnamese women at an illegal marriage meeting, and were
sentenced to a fine. However there are still shameless people committing such a crime as usual.
Hankook Ilbo

Juche Idea rampant in Japan Teachers' Union
The Juche Idea (also Juche Sasang or Chuch'e; pronounced /t?ut??e/ in Korean, approximately
"joo-cheh") is the official state ideology of North Korea and the political system based on it.
Kim Jong-il has explained that the doctrine is a component part of Kimilsungism,
after its founder Kim Il-sung.
The core principle of the Juche ideology since the 1970s has been that "man is the master of
everything and decides everything".
The official biography Kim Il Sung by Baik Bong had previously described this as saying
that the masters of the North Korean revolution are the Workers' Party of Korea and
the Korean people, who must remake themselves under the leadership of the WPK.
Juche literally means "main body" or "subject"; it has also been translated in North Korean
sources as "independent stand" and the "spirit of self-reliance".

suspicious people who landed from the fishing boat at Nishinoura fishing
port in Nishiura, Nishi-ku, Fukuoka City and called 110.
Fukuoka prefectural police searched around there, discovered and

The total fee is about 90-95% of the budget of this land.
Yes, Mr,Yamada do not need the cash to operate, and get the big return.
And the foundation of the Ministry of finance has the land property rights in this amusement park, in this meaning, this land is held by the general Japanese people.
The foundation has been taken really almost no money from Mr.Yamada’s company and permits to do the business in the land in substantially.
And the foundation has been accepted a former high-ranking official.
Yes, the tax has been spent for this officer’s salary and the Yamada’s personal enterprises.
The people’s property has been used and taxes have been spent for the special persons without accusing.
