Lets kick back and go for a ride!

Let's all paint this thread red, you, NEET, foreigners with body odors,
Anime lovers who download them illegally, perverts, people who think
the sun goes around the earth, guys who insist Yukorin's fart smells
like middle-aged men's!!!!!!

Chill out!! PARTY TIME, GUYS!!!

manko nametai

I hate you japs.

>>9
WELOCOME!
You are the first pervert in this new thread.

>>10
You are fake.

You are fake.

Shut the fuck up, jap.

is this a thread for cursing?

>>1
thanx!!

>15
No I am angry cuz I had a bad trip.

No one wants to talk with you because of your poor English.

y do u care about my english? this iz teh internets, and it duznt mater if i typ rite

every1 here must be english teachers thats y u dont want 2 "talk" 2 me

im lyk so "tired" rite now mayb i should go sleep

Sorry to bother you but I couldn't find a thread titled "eigode nikkiwo
kakou" anywhere on the thread list.
Don't you know what happened to it ?

I have no idea what you are talking about.
But why don't you search for it? 〔Ctrl + F〕

>>1
Who are you? Why did you creat this thread?

>>21
How you write matters just as much anywhere. It's the same as your verbal communication.
Would you have spoken with such an accent at for instance a club, or at school?
Your intentional abuse of a language doesn't make you seem cool. It just makes you look stupid.

>>1
GJ! Thank you!!!

You should know that some people don't know much about PC.

>>1
Thnx!

h ttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neko_%28computer_program%29 I enjoy this.

>>1
You should know better than to give up building a shitty thread.

>>32
What is it that you want to say?

>>33
Read again. It's obvious.

Do the American use EMOJI?

My friend of American uses simpl of that.
For example, ⇒ :)

Someone Answers ,please.

It's like a ceremony for some people to critisize him when someone
build up this thread.

>>1
How soon will this thread deleted?

>>35
I love this: <3 <3 <3

What's that ?

>>1
Shut up!!

>>39
supposed to be a heart (on a sideway) <3
kinda hard to see, depending on the font, tho.

No way! bleah

What is the secret of 109 angels?

when i saw <3 for the first time, i thought it stood for a nose or something haha

What was in it?

Tell me who Ryozaki Ryuga is.

ryuga is brother of yulia,kenshiro's sweetone.

he slashes human body with cold hands.

I am going to work as ambassador

>>34
Yes, it's obvious that they managed to say the exact opposite of what they meant.

>>35
Yes. "Text-smileys". you have to turn your head to read them.

>>1
Who gave you the right to build a thread?

There was no opportunity. There was no pause. He just kept talking in one long incredibly unbroken sentence moving from topic to topic so that no one had a chance to interrupt, it was really quite hypnotic.

Do you know Japanese mass media reported yesterday repeatedly
that 3 American girls got arrested for hurting a girl, 3 on 1?
It said they uploaded video files on the Internet. Where can I
take a look?

>>50
He himself. And we thank him for it.

>>53
Technically, it was 2ch's system that gave him the right.

Actually, the video was broadcast. Their faces were digitally modified,
but what they said was subbed, like "you jerk!"

>>54
Not all, though.

All I know about the violence is that the beaten girl asked out
the boyfriend of one of the three. There was a boy at the spot
but he didn't even try to stop it.

This one.
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/01/17/national/main2368868.shtml?source=RSSattr=HOME_2368868

Did you watch the video clip?

Were you exited watching it?

>>1
Who the hell are you?

>>1
What did you do that for?

>>1
Your fart smells like shit!

>>1
How many people do you think thank you for creating this?

Do you know about Ketsuge burger?

yes I do. those photos were awful

What's that? I've never heard of that burger.
Is it famous in Japan? Did you eat one?

I'll eat the humberger when I have a chance.

When are you gonna have a chance?
Please tell us.

>>1

Thank you for making part 76. I like chatting across international
boundaries. It's fortunate that so many Japanese people know some
English, since my nihongo is pretty poor.

>>1
Thank you for this thread!

http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,91059-1246969,00.html
"Police are trying to trace a mysterious samurai sword-wielding vigilante who came to the rescue of two officers when they were being attacked by an armed gang."

>>1
I don't think you failed. You shouldn't have done that.

>>1
Don't abuse us. You are horrible.

Good morning!
Rise n' shine!
Wash n' go!

Goodness gracious!

>>1! With this many replies already, this thread will be a sure success!
If people truly would not like this thread, they would ignore it and let it die in peace!

"I hate it" means "I wuv it " in this thread, lol
Cross-grained~~

>>77
Love and hate are two different sides of the same thing. If people wouldn't care for this thread,
they would have denied it attention. Many of the people who yell at >>1 do not even sage their
comments, giving this thread extra attention. If you want something to die, you deny it attention,
because the more that notice whatever's being given attention, the more people who actually enjoy
it will find it.

too long

>>79
tl;dr

I've seen it before but forgot the meaning.

too long, didn't read

Me too

me three

>>82
Thanks.but I've read his/her posting completely.
It's nothing.It's by far shorter than K-tan's

It's rather "too long for stating the obvious."

I can say my Emma watson. she is an angel.

>>86
I've got your point.But "the obvious" differs from person to person.
Don't you think so ?

>>88
That's obvious.

How about joying to this party tonight?

みなさん２０日、このカフェのパーティー行きませんか？飯田橋です。

>>85
You say that as if I'm incapable of writing short posts ;-)

>>91
You utterly got me wrong.I don't understand how you can say
such a thing at all.

lol
let's have a misunderstanding party!!!

Yeah,Everywhere you go, misunderstandings are waiting for you.

>>92
The way you said it was just amusing.

>>94
Yep, especially according to Osmo Wiio.
The following link is a commentary of Wiio's laws of communication:
http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/wiio.html

It's not only humourous, but quite accurate. ^-^

>>95
amusing ? Wow,I run into another misunderstanding.
What should I do ?

Go to the misunderstanding party, lol~~

PARTY HARD!

Come with me.

>>8
You're mine.

I think you are a great businessman who can command 5 foreign languages.

Talking to yourself?

do you know the scandal of AruAru dictironary 2 on the channel 8 CX?

I don't know. What scandal ?

they said sucking a penis works well on the diet

Doh!

>>126
What a surprise ! Is that true ?
If they dared to say like that,I guess they must have a scientific evidence
about that.

uho!

I am >>8

Thanks for your comments.

F*ck Hirohito piece of sh*t! U gave us nothing good.

I know the city by name.It's in Holland.right ?

>>143

correct!

>>144
I want to know what it is like.

Hey dert ! any comments ?

rotterdam is not pretty at all.

it was bommed in WWII and now, all buildings are new.

Old dutch cities like leiden are so much prettier.

Thanks.It may be similar to the cities in Japan.
All the big cities in Japan are filled with new buildings
because they were also bommed during WW 2.

After all,he replied nothing.
um...His English is as poor as mine.

well, rotterdam is the city i was born in after all, but i just think it's not that nice. I moved to leiden and discovered a whole new world!

rotterdam is nice for:
shopping - shopping streets everywhere: http://www.rotterdam.nl/Rotterdam/Openbaar/Overig/IDWEB/WMO/Koopgoot_02.jpg
film festival - will be held end of january
harbour - was the largest port in the world until shanghai in 2004 grew larger. but it is still impressive to drive by and watch; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Satellite_image_of_Europoort%2C_Netherlands_%284.25E_51.90N%29.png
convenience - it is a big city, you can get anything, many chinese/hongkong/jap import food/games/stuff

but the buildings are ugly. yah. all modern architecture.

however, it's nice to walk around in. I take a tram from now and then, just to sit in it and watch the city flow by. For hours. Kinda useless, aren't I!

did i mention i like leiden better?

* Dej-HAH-vu: it's when you've already seen all of the funny parts of a movie in the trailer.

* KILL-dren: those kids in horror movies; and they're not cute.

* Expenda-BILL: the nameless character who always goes on secret missions and is always the first to die.

* COUGH-in: when you see a main character cough in the first few minutes of a movie, and you know they'll be dead by the end.

* Doggie-DAR: the innate ability of the family dog to sense an evil man in their company even when the humans are completely oblivious.

* TRAVOLTED: when one key film role rescues an actor's career from years of struggle and puts them back on the map.

* Lucky BLAST-ard: the main character of an action movie who can run, jump, swim or drive just one step faster than the fireball of a huge explosion.

* Prev-EULOGY: when movie studios cram the whole movie into the preview and kill any chance of you going to see it.

* CON-mercial: when the studio puts out a misleading trailer, that cons you into the theatre.

Tell me how very strong Mike Tyson is.

i cant understand myself in English particulaly listning, what is saying ?

A cat's at a police box.

It means the cat does't know anything value...?

F*CK MACHINE

>>160
he was beaten by famous body builder.
the body builder sat astride mike and punched shit.

>>164
I think you are a NEET.

I am not a NEET. I am a hipster.

during my first 20 years I failed to make any friends.

>>167
Are you Ohta Hikaru?

>>167
Hope is not lost! You still have many years to make friends!
Do your best!

>>151
Thanx for showing us the photo of leiden.
That's exactly the image we have for Holland, with those windmills, streams, green, etc.
Oh, and Tulips!
I wish to visit there sometime.

>>167
during your last 20 years of your life, you'll be losing your friends,
so you'd better hurry to make some now!

>>152
discotheque.....
We don't even call them Discos now, that's a nostalgic word for 70's-80's.
Now they are called Clubs.

>>154
Emily Tan and Magibon speak good Japanese!

Magibon used to come here, only to leave forever.

Magibon forever!

suck my cock!!!!!!!!!!

Yada!!!!!

is there anyone who wants to chat with me?

school girl、どこに行ったの？

Center test.

what is "center test"?

she is gonna be Jyoshidai-sei soon, lol~~

>>181
It's the nationwide 2-day entrace exam to get into a uni., which is taking place
yesterday and today.

>>182
You may be school girl.
Because lol...Idon't know how to make the sign after that...is her trade mark.

>>182
お前はschool girlなの？

>>184
That symbol is called a tilde.

>>184, 185
Doh!
I kinda wish I was, but I'm not school girl, lol~~
~~ is easy to make, just press the SHIFT key and the＾key at the same time, lol~~

In fact she would have said lolz~~ , like anywayz,
instead of lol or anyway.

>>187
Really? I thought you were school girl for a long time. I guess she
uses "lolz" instead of "lol", though. On American keyboards, "~" is
the "`", which is left of the "1" key.

I mean that "~" is the shift key of the "`" (backtick) key.

>>190
What do you use the "`" (backtick) key for when you write in English?
We only have "'" on our key board....

>>191
It's useless when writing in English. It was meant for writing in languages with diacritical marks, I think.
However, it is used in some programming languages, and Unix shell script.

gotcha.

I wonder what programming language 2ch uses.

COBOL

I used to know a COBOL programmer.

is he/she dead?

No, it's just that the last time I saw her was a long time ago.

I'm listening to "The Open Door" by Evanescence
I love their music, but all the tunes in that album sounds very similar, lol

It sounds like some people here need to gb2/b/.
As an aside - it's fascinating to see the people on anonidate.com/, the
anonymous dating thing set up for the 4chan /b/ crowd. The average age
seems to be about 20.

I'd like to know how old the average 2ch person is.

COBOL... I haven't seen that in ages. Also, a part of 2ch I can actually read! Yay! (I don't speak very much Japanese)

Score!

>>200
What is /b/?

>>201
But we only talk about rubbish......

204,
Whether or not that may be the case, it would be enjoyable to have the ability to read and comprehend the rest of the 2ch board.

203,
/b/ is 4chan's specified "Random" board.

uho!

206,
? uho?

uho! and uhyo! are exclamation sounds with some comical
connotation.

208,
I see. I wasn't thinking in that context, for whatever reason. Then again, the only thing you'd see an exclamation such as that here would likely be in imported manga.

>>199
What a coincidence, I was listening to the same record now!
their songs are great, but I like the first album better.
Their music belongs in Gothic metal, but clearly it has an American
feel to it too.

If there were pretty and virgin 10-14 aged girls here, you would be facing the biggest chance to be more than my lover!!
Don't miss your opportunity!

>>210
>What a coincidence, I was listening to the same record now!

are you sure about that@.@??
But anyway, I also prefre the first album, and in fact, its title
tune "Bring me back to life" is my wakeup music.
The lyrics even matche the situation, lol~~~
"( Wake me up ) wake me up inside
( I can't wake up ) wake me up inside
(Save me ) call my name and save me from the dark
( Wake me up ) bid my blood to run
( I can't wake up ) before i come undone
( Save me ) save me from the nothing I've become"

212,
That song was quite popular here for a while as well. I remember hearing it on the radio when it first debuted.

>>209
You are right, those are the likely expresssions you find in the comics.
The other day, there was a TV program on TV, expaining how to use the expressions
like "Duh!," "Doh!" and "Score!"
I found that to be very amusing~~

>>211
Poor thing, you haven't found your "more than lover" yet?
You sure have been looking for one for such a long time, lol
Good luck anyway.

214,
Hah, yeah. Though, those expressions are used in everyday speech too! However, I can't recall the last time I heard someone say "score" in that sort of manner o_o.
Though, I suppose it does likely get used; it's just not ringing a bell, so to speak. Hell, maybe I use it and am not aware of it.

>>216
You must be damn right about the usage, because the American person
explaining those expressions on TV came to Japan in the early 90's and
has live in Japan ever since.
He also was introducing the valley speak such as Gnarley, Radical, Tubular and Awesome, but
the caption said "Those, except 'awesome' are passe, and not used any more."

>>216
I think that expression is used in some other parts of the US.
America is a large country, so..

217,
Oh god, I haven't heard those in forever either; only when people are trying to be lame :P.
On another note, even in the early 90s, those were a bit odd to encounter.
I am American, by the way, if that hasn't been made obvious.

218,
Perhaps; though, to be honest, popular vernacular doesn't phase that much between coasts here.
Like I said though, it's just not ringing a bell. In other words, I could even be using it unknowingly; certain terms are like that sometimes!

We have a whole bunch of evanescent phrases like those in Japanese, too,
and I can't even remember each one of them.
Far out, lol~~

I'm trying to learn Japanese for business purposes in the future. I wonder if I'll end up using these strange phrases as well x.x

not in the business meetings, but only after them when you go out
drinking.

223,
Well, I didn't mean in the meetings >.<.
I mean, if I'm flying between countries, I'll inevitably meet people there casually. It'd feel kind of strange being all formal with casual acquaintances. Not to mention, if I become fluent, I'll become comfortable with the language anyway.

>>Ether
I have a question for you.
In my English textbook I found a very unique sentence;
"Lovely weather for ducks".
It's used like this;

Bill: hi, Bob. How do you like this weather?
Bob: Lovely weather for ducks.

Do you REALLY use it often?

>>225
I've never heard someone say "Lovely weather for ducks" in my entire life. That right there is an odd sentence. I mean, it's fine to use, I suppose, but it's strange.

>>226
I'm not 225, but thanx very much for your response.
How about "as cool as a cucumber," do you ever use it?

>>225
I can see it being used if you're around a whole lot of ducks, or are hunting for ducks, but nowhere else. It would basically be saying "Regardless to as how I like the weather, it is good weather for ducks to be out."

However, otherwise, it wouldn't be used, really. It's quite vague. (Sorry for the double-post, but I wanted to point that out after-the-fact.)

you can suck my cock if you wanna do thah.,

>>227
I don't really use it, but it IS used. Mostly by older folks though, it's kind of a dated phrase. Sort of like "tubular" or "radical".

>>230
Awesome! Thanx very much^-^

The name of the textbook is, "Common American Phrases in
Everyday Contexts" by Richard Spears.
The author must be just joking...LOL

>>229
If you're looking to insult someone, especially in English, at least get your grammar and spelling correct before you do it. Otherwise, if you wouldn't mind, please don't pollute the thread with your nonsensical statements.

>>231
No problem, feel free to ask any further questions.

>>232
Haha, how old is that book?!

It was written in 1992. One and a half decade ago...
Not very old, but not brand-new.

>>235
I see. Well, back then, you were more likely to hear the phrase "as cool as a cucumber" than you are now. Now it's mostly used by people who are 40+ years of age.

uho!

I have a question for anyone willing to answer...

Any recommended study tips for learning kanji? Hiragana and katakana were very easy to learn; I learned those entirely - each in less than 2.5 hours. However, some of these more complicated kanji are difficult to remember!

>>238
You must have a photocopy memory, geeeez!!!

>>239
Why do you say that? Hiragana and katakana were just very simple...
I do have a good memory, but that's beside the point.

>>238
Unfortunately, I can't think of any quick & easy way for mastering Kanji.....
Like you have vocab. tests at school, we have Kanji tests at school, and
gradually acquire them.
For both Kanji and English vocabs, I used the authentic method of writing them
on paper as many times as need until I was sure I remembered them, but
if you have such a good memory, you may be able to acquire them by only reading
many materials written in japanese......

>>241
Yes, but unfortunately, whilst English only has a limited number of characters, Japanese has thousands. I'm not having a whole lot of trouble learning them, it's just that it's frustrating when I forget a stroke or two on a more complicated kanji.
Ah well, thanks for the reply, in any case!

no worries^-^

There are many phrases that are heard in various media such as TV/movies/books that aren't really used in real life.
For example, "totally" is sometimes used to mean "yes", but I don't think I've ever heard it used that way in real life...

As in:
A - Wanna go surfing?
B - Totally!

>>244
I hear "totally" in that context often. It is indeed normal.

>>Ether
I don't know which level of Kanji you are talking about, but
if you're still learning the first grader's level of Kanji,
you must learn them one by one, copying each kanji on paper.
But if you are learning higher level, you would realize that
some kanjis are composed of simpler elements.
Each element has its own meaning.

>>244
Are you a native English speaker or non-native speaker?
Because I've heard it used in the context you mentioned many times, lol

>>246
I have just started kanji, but have learned a few of the more advanced ones as well.
I have indeed noticed that they are made of simpler elements, but for one reason or another the meaning isn't always clear to me.

>>244
Recluse?

>>249
>Recluse?
C'mon, don't be mean to the guy now. :P

>>245
From whom? Maybe teenage girls say it.

>>247
I'm a native speaker.

>>251
I'm a native speaker myself. Lived here all my life. I hear it like that commonly, from males and females alike. Where do you live, precisely? Maybe it's a regional difference? I'm on the east coast.

A Japanese elementary school kid learns 1,006 kanjis in six years.
You have to at least be able to understand, read, and write them.
But IMHO, you don't have to be able to write kanjis taught at high school.
Understanding and reading them is necessary, though.

>>250
I just wanted to use the new words I learned from this thread;
recluse and hermit, lol~~

>>252
Kentucky

>>254
Yeah, but that was very rude >.< lol.
Careful or you might offend people x.x.

>>253
So I've heard. However, I'm good with language, so I don't think it will take me nearly that long. Also, I'd like to become more than
proficient at the language, so I'd like to end up learning those taught at a high-school level as well. Thanks for the information.

>>255
Do you like Fried Chicken?

>>255
Florida here at the moment. Have lived up in Virginia and Maryland as well, though. I'm also on the internet in IRC at a constant, so I see people everywhere talking about everything x.x.

>>256
I got this info. that if you read
500 Kanji characters, you'll be able to understand 80% of newspaper contents
1,000 Kanji characters make it 95%, and
2,000 Kanji characters make it 100%.
Just FYI.

>>259
Yeah, I'm aware of those statistics. There's like 2048 "daily use" kanji or something, which basically outlines newspaper comprehension.
If the character used isn't in the list, they are supposedly required to accompany the kanji with furigana so those who do not know the kanji can still understand.

>>259
Comprehension of the meanings of the characters that make up a word does not imply comprehension of the meaning of the entire word.
息子 does not mean "breath child".

>>261
So you mean one needs to know 2000+ Kanji characters + their combinations
(Jyukugo)?
You maybe right.

David Matthews (leader of Manhattan Jazz Quintet) and Marty Friedman (guitarist
from Megadeth) speak excellent Japanese!!!

Marty's Japanese is really impressive.
His choice of Japanese idol is really good too.(HIs favorite is
Yoko Kumada)

>>262
Precisely. I think that one should focus on vocabulary words rather than learning kanji in isolation in order to achieve literacy in Japanese.
I think that the individual kanji can be a useful tool, though.
It's somewhat like learning the morphemes that make up English compound words.
re (again) + view (to look at) = review
"review" can mean "to look at something again", as in "Let's review the evidence."
However, it can also mean "to judge", as in "Roger Ebert reviews movies."
As you can see, learning the components of a word does not necessarily give you the whole picture.

Anyhow, I have some things to do, and will be back later.
If anyone wants/needs to contact me about anything, they can reach me at [email protected]

>>264
He even admires Tsunku, lol~~
Yeah, I much prefer Marty to the intellectual-wannbe Florent Dabadie,
who shows off his knowledge of big Japanese words to impress others, lol~~

>>200
There's an anonymous dating thing set up for /b/? Woah, shows how much out of touch I'm with 4chan.

こんにちは〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜♪
英語勉強してるものです。
初心者だけど、よろしくゥ♪

how do you do???
i am a girl.
i study English very much. I go to junior college.
I love study English very much.
It is difficult, but it is interesting.
I want to have friends of a lot of countrys.
I like to speak english.
I want to study english more.
thank you very much.

>>269
Hi, how are you?
Would you like to chat some time now?

>>269
Hi, ^-^v

>>269
You should find conversation buddies to talk with through Skype or any similar program.
That way you'll also improve your listening comprehension.
You do have an English grammar rule book or two, right?
If you want to get better at pronouncing words, it's usually good if you listen to radio shows
or audio books, and try to pronounce they way they do (though you might want to decide whether you
want to go for a English kind of accent, or US accent, transatlantic or a hodge podge of them all,
as a starter accent). Recording yourself saying phrases, listening to them and comparing to the
original phrases is another good habit. That way you know what areas you need to work on more.
Read fun books in English, Harry Potter's been rather popular lately.

uho!

>>272
Get the fuck out of here, moron.

>>274
Why the harsh reaction?

>>275
I reckon he is going through his menopause, lol~~

>>276
I see.

lol~~

Hey, I'm back everyone (supposing any of you are still around that I was chatting with before).

>>272 appears on this video.

272 as the fucking monster asault the girl(maybe 269)

como se distingue el raton y la rata en japones?

assaults

>>280 >>282
How is giving learning advice to >>269 assaulting her?
Are you afraid you won't be able to capture her and put her in your basement,
if she's too busy talking with others than you?

>>280
Rofl, didn't see that one coming.

Bottle Fairy is cute ^-^v

Are you afraid of bears?

Do bears shit in the woods.

>>288
Sarcasm, uho?

>>290
I am not sarcastic. I am a bear and I want to know if you are afraid of me.

wut?

>>280
't was a good one, thanx for posting!

Damn; this would be a hell of a lot easier to follow if you all weren't anon x.x

>>291
I think >>290 was directed at >>289 O.o;; That makes more sense.

>>294
You'll get used to it, kiddo ;-)
It's quite entertaining.

>>291
I'm not afraid of bears, because I'm not likely to bump into any. However,
I'd be afraid, if I met any that were wild.

>>289
Yes. I am a bear and I do shit in the woods.

>>295 is correct.
orz

Don't you ever pretend to be dead when you encounter a bear, 'cause
it's only a superstition~~

>>297
It's an expression, it means yes. Giving a "Do(es) [obviously true scenario]?" as
reply to a question is the same as giving a yes as reply, though might be a bit rude, depending on the scenario.

>>296
It is good that you do not want to meet us. We bears do not like it when humans invade our territory.

>>299
Quite true. We bears can recognize your trick and we may really kill you to teach you a lesson.
That lesson is to not try to trick bears.

>>300
Is it like "Duh!"?

>>299
Mmm. Human sashimi.

>>294
Stop trying to reply to people. Start replying to the posted messages instead.

>>302
Yes. Very much like "Duh!".

>>304
uho!
Thanx^-^

>>305
No worries. ^-^

>>302
It's a rhetorical question meant to infer an affirmative.
Scenario:
"Should we go east from here?"
"Does a bear shit in the woods?" <- Of course a bear shits in the woods. This means yes. Therefore, yes is the answer to the person's question of whether or not to go east.

>>300
Thank you for the explanation. Bears do not use sarcasm, you see. Have you ever watched Winnie the Pooh?
If you have, I am sure you have found that Pooh Bear is never sarcastic.

>>307
Why does one need to be so round-about when you can just say "Yes"?

>>308
Winne the Pooh is kind, and too fond of honey.
He must be seriously malnutritioned.

>>309
As it was mentioned, it may be desirable to use if one wishes to be a bit condescending.
As in that showing that you think the answer was as obvious as the rhetorical question.
That they should have been able to figure out by themselves.

>>311
I sea.

>>309
It's sarcastic. It's to be a smart-ass (sarcastic humor). Definitely not something you'd say to someone you don't know well, unless you're trying to be rude.

>>311
err.
x to figure out
o to figure it out

>>309
Yeah, >>311 's explanation is good as well.

>>315
Personally I think it's good to have both explenations. Both are the same thing,
explained from a different angle. It helps people grasp the meaning better,
than if they would have had just either one of the two.

>>316
Yeah, I agree.

>>316 "Both are the same thing, explained from different angles."
No need to thank me, 316.

Thanx for the explanations.

>>310
Yes. He is a bit small and oddly colored as well, but his lack of sarcasm is a trait found in us bears.

>>311
Please do not be condescending to bears. Word gets around, so do not be surprised if the next bear you meet is not kind to you.

>>320
But what if that person was not condescending to bears per se, but
just that single bear?

Sleepy~~
I think I need more coffee.

>>321
If you insult one bear, you insult all of us. We bears have to maintain our supremacy over humans.

Does a bear notice if you feed it bear?

>>322
I think you need a sleep, lol

>>323
Uho!
Have you ever dated Hard Gay? (Do you know what "bear" is slang for? The opposite of twink.. Ahahaha)

>>334
Yes, and anyone who commits such a crime will not be forgiven.

>>325
But I woke up three hours ago! ;_; I can't go sleep now! I have a busy day ahead of me.

>>327

>>334? I SEE NO >>334 !!1

*runs*

>>326
....but twinkies are good.......

>>327 was to >>324.

>>326
I am aware of that meaning. Those so-called "bears" are hated by real bears.

>>329
Not yet, kiddo. You can call it anon-roulette, if want you to ;-D

Uh oh. WE WILL SEE THE TARGET SOON ENOUGH.

MAN YOUR BATTLESTATIONS.

You are a sexist pig. Are you forgetting women?

>>330
http://images.google.com/images?q=twink
That is "twink".
Bear is the same, only very different body type. Lots of hair, muscles, and possibly fat.
The sturdy, hairy, masculine kind of gay guys. They often wear leather at "bear" gatherings.

TARGET SIGHTED. LOCKED ON. FIRING ZE MISSILES!

>>336
But I am Le tired!

>>337
Well then take a nap.... THEN FIRE ZE MISSILES!

Ahahahahaaa.

AHHHH! MOTHERLAND!

>>335
You're gay, right?

A warning to those who do not read links before they click them.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CLICK ON >>339 's LINK!

>>341
No. I just know too much for my own good.

>>340
WHERE'S AUSTRALIA?!

I take it everyone speaking at the moment is a native speaker?

nope!

>>342
Dude, if they click the link without reading, they deserve the potential shock.
Seriously, the url itself should give off enough warning flags. It's not as if
it hides the fact that the link is to an image of gay guys having sex.

>>347
Yeah, but some people don't read. What if some poor Japanese resident who can't speak any English were to see the link, get curious, and take a looksee?!

>>345
Native speaker of what? Japanese? English? I'm neither, nyah nyah.

>>347
It doesn't take a single click to get there either, but two.
Plenty of time to notice something's wrong.

>>349
English

>>348
If they're curious, then they will get their curiousity satisfied, no?
Don't assume everyone here dislikes seeing gay men. I'm sure there are gay
guys and yaoi-fangirls here as well.

>>349
What's your mother tongue, if I may ask?

>>342
Not even if you're gay?

>>351
yaoi-fangirls???
what the hell is that?

>>351
Not the yaoi-fangirls! *shiver*

>>354
Yaoi is basically gay manga sex. A fangirl is a girl who obsesses over something in particular. Put the two together, and you have a deadly concoction.

>>356
Thank you!

>>348
If they couldn't speak English, they wouldn't be able to understand your warning either.

what do you think of yukorin?

>>357
Good, now you're informed. Now you have the information you need to steer clear of these genetic anomalies!

Don't bully Ether, lolz~~

>>358
So true. Maybe I should have said it in Japanese. However, laziness has gotten the better of me. Waha.

>>361
Are you school girl?

>>355-356
How is that worse than yuri-fanboys, or eroge anime/manga/game fanboys?
Isn't it the same crap, just a different field? This thread is filled with
eroge fanboys.

Also, to elaborate for the ones that do not know: yaoi is very much something
that appeals to girls more than gay guys. A lot of gay guys feel the stories are
ludicrous and alien.

nope!

<<359 What/who is (a) yukorin?

<<364
Hey hey hey, I better not be on that list. I don't like that either; I don't understand the attraction to drawings/renders.

>>363
nope!

>>368
You said "lolz", though. That is her trademark.

>>366
A Japanese idol girl whose farts allegedly smell like vanilla, according to herself.
Some interviewer tried to embaress her, and asked her what her farts smelled like.
She became flustered and replied that they smelled like vanilla.

Yukorin is known to have a quirky personality, though. She tends to say odd things.

Yukorin should be suit for the word of princess
masko is bad

>>370
Lmao, wtf? Vanilla? xD
Sorry lady, everyone's farts smell like shit!

>>369
Many, many people say "lolz". Hardly anyone's trademark!

>>371
Prince Williams' girlfriend seems to be nice.

>>372
On this thread, only she says "lolz~~".

If I were a King, I would marry Emma Watson.

>>367
You're only on the list if you put yourself on it.
The attraction to drawings is heavily imagination-based.
People don't as much fall for the lines, or the colors,
as the concept of the characters, or the stereotypes
they represent.
It's the same thing as with real porn, only more "hardcore".
People imagine that the girl (or whatever) is in a certain way,
based on the behaviors show, in combination with the viewers
desires. This is why so much real porn is shitty generic crap,
it's to pander to an as wide viewer base as possible. To be able
to cater to as many different personal fantasies as possible.

<<374
Some "Idol", as you say, visits this thread? o.O

<- First time on 2ch

>>375
If I were a king, I would hate my life. Too much attention and obligation.

>>377
No. Not Yukorin. "school girl" She was a regular poster on this thread.

It's very harder for us and even Hamaguchi whether Yukorin is a pretender or her nature.

>>377
No, she doesn't visit this, people just like to pretend she does.

Schoolgirl does visit this thread, from time to time. I miss her.

Yukorin has been a frequent subject in this thread for many months, though.

>>382
But you guys were bullying her so badly!

Mr Abe tries to amend constitution which has not been changed since its birth.

>>385
I don't understand what he is saying, lol~~

<<376
I understood that much. When I say that I "don't understand", I mean that I don't understand why
they get physically and emotionally entrapped in something as intangible as a drawing or game character.
I mean, playing games and watching anime is fine and all, no problem with that, but when you start
getting feelings and attachments like that... it's time to stop.

What about bernardo and ケイラ? They should come back,

I can't tell the difference loli-con from neo-con
give me short explain

>>386
It seems like >>385 is trying to make a comment about Abraham Lincoln...?

>>390
Nope. Not him. Learn more about Japanese politics.

>>384
I never have. I have always been polite and kind.

>>383
Years, actually.

>>390
Abe is Prim Minister of Japan now, but his way of speaking is very weird
and sometimes difficult to understand, lol

Mr Abe is a hawk lunatic! He's quite dangerous to Japan!
If he changed the Article Nineth, then you NEETs would be forced to go to the battle theatre.

>>388
Agreed.

>>389
I've never heard about "neo-con"s before. It makes me think of people who fancy
new trends and the novelty of things too much.

>>391
I'm nowhere near Japan; don't really feel pressed to pay attention to Japanese politics when I have my hands full paying attention to ours. x.x
Too busy with stuff to keep track!

I wanna know Akkie's boobs size.

Definately "A minus"!!!!!

>>396
Again with the people I don't know x.x
Who is Akkie?

>>161
it was a gooooooood film.

>>395
Well, Japanese politics is a common subject in this thread.

>>398
Prim minister's wife.
She is extreamly skinny and has very funny face, lol

You are so stupid that you are hopin for the amendment of Constitution

>>400
And I'm completely new to 2ch.

>>401
I see.

>>402
Plz tell that to Abe.
Thank you.

Yukari Sato is a little pretty for her age I bet

>>387
You don't understand? Heh. I thought it was pretty obvious.
If you get to know someone really well in real life, with very desirable traits;
someone you find attractive: would you not fall for her?

It's the same thing when it comes to fictional characters, except for that they
do not exist. People get too fond of the idea of the characters, and thus wish
too hard that they would exist, as they're seen as such desirable partners.
It's really the same thing as people falling for idols or live action characters
portaited by live action actors, or celebrities. The only difference is that they're
drawn, rather than photo-real. A very one-sided kind of attachment, and love.
The difference is that fans of "real" things get to pretend to a higher degree.
They're seen as less odd, by the general public.

>>404
Hey you idiots! Study harder until you can find out the danger of abe's hawkest and insane policies
by the way I wanna intercourse with akkie

>>406
Figured it was something dumb like that. I never got why people got so attached
to even real idols either. Some people just live in their little fantasies I guess.
If you look at it, it's kind of sad, really. Especially with the drawn/generated ones...
because they know they can never even speak with them.

I am a lolicon. That's all. thank you.

>>403
Based on your earlier reaction, I take it you've never been to any image boards either, as opposed to image forums.
You've never heard of 4-ch.net, or 4chan.org either, huh? (they're two unrelated sites, western versions of 2ch and 2chan)
Asking if you've ever been to any of the other western boards would be ridiculous too, wouldn't it?

>>403
Okay. BTW, you should know that "abe" is not the same as the English name.
It is pronounced アベ.

>>406
But when it comes to fictional characters, everything is artificially made, so
nothing is real.
But live actors or celebrities have real feelings and emotions.
I think there is a huge difference between them.

>>412
Yes. It is more horrible for the people than the anime/manga characters.
Because at least the latter do not have any real lives stalkers and crazy
retards can destroy.

Ether, maybe you should use a trip code so that you aren't impersonated, as well.
Do you know what that is?

>>414
He doesn't, I bet.

I am a otaku man. as you know, the train man is a fantasy.

>>416
Densha otoko is pleasant fantasy.

>>410
Oh no, I've been there. I also work for a torrent site that has that sort of imageboard.
I know a ton of 4chan and 7chan regulars as well. Regardless of this, I always found it strange
how they were into that sort of thing. They could never really give me a straight answer :P.
Just like "It's hot", or, "I just do".

>>403
I know how it's pronounced. I may not speak Japanese very well, but I know a bit,
including the syllabaries.

>>406
I agree; hence why I said it was sadder for those who are like that with fictitious characters.

>>416
Lol, Densha Otoko's story is how I ended up here. There's an English
translation.

Hm? I'm not a resident to any of the Xchan boards, so no, don't know how to get
a trip-code. I know what it's for though. I can't read enough kanji to make my
way around 2ch very well yet x.x.

Tripcode crash course:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tripcode

in the name field, you put in something in the format of YourNameHere#tripcode.
E.g. Tripfag#h4h3stuf
You can observe the result of the above trip code in my name field.
The tripcode works as a kind of password. Even though 2ch's version of tripcodes
are not secure (and thus can be found out with tripcode crackers), it's enough
for most basic needs.

It's easy, Just put a # character followed by a password after your name in the box that says 名前 (namae, name).

Now, observe the difference between using a tripcode, and someone
trying
to impersonate your tripcode by inserting your name + the string generated by
your tripcode. This is why you cannot be impersonated, without someone knowing
your "tripcode password".

Okay, this should work then.

>>422
Yeah, I could read those kanji. Some of the few I had an idea about x.x

The filled diamond is turned into a hollow one, and the tripcode string is
in bold, the same as your name. A generated tripcode will not be in bold, and
will be preceded by a filled diamond.

>>423
I understood how it worked soon after I found out about it.
I'm a programmer...

uyo!
you cannot lose weight by eating Natto,lol
it was a total lie of Fuji TV......

>>427
Don't believe everything you hear on T.V.!

>>426
Woo! Give us more information! What languages have you dabbled in?
What languages do you prefer? Do you work in the field? Did you
get a programming-oriented education, or did you learn programming
in your spare time?

>>429
FORTRAN is my favorite
Ether proxy

I'm sure he writes FORTRAN in every language.

ロビー http://www.myspace.com/RobbyNinja
こいつ、Myspaceで下手な英語で叩かれ放しｗｗ

Dabbled in C++, VB, C#, Java, ASM...
My best and preferred language is C++
Don't work in the field yet, I'm a student. I work on private projects with others though...
I go to a special highschool geared toward Information Technology, so yes, a specialized education...
Most of what I've learned however, is beyond that of which the school has prepared me.

>>433
Awesome.

If any of you have heard of Ragnarok Online II, currently working with a group
on building a server emulator for it, for private servers.

>>433
I've poked around in C++, VB, VB.NET, Java, and some assembly. I'm a student too,
though I'm very rusty in C++, and VB I hope to never again have to touch.

I wonder what time it is in Florida now....?

>>435
I think I've heard of it. How big is your group?

>>437

>>437 Look it up!

No one liked my joke. ;_;

>>437
3:52 AM

>>438
Our team is about 14 members, and growing. I'm one of the core developers.
We also have people specifically for the database, and for translations. Yes,
we do plan to make a Japanese-language release, but our initial release
will be in English.

>>439, 440
Thanx.

>>441
sorry, hahaha~~

>>441
It was dull. Sorry.

Hi Dee
Thank you for the massage.
I finished the vacation of the New Year.
Its general to drink sake at the New Year of Japan.
Therefore,I was drinking sake every day.
Do it become an excuse?lol
I worry about weight. (><)
how are you doing?

Hmm. I should get more coffee and get going. I've got a busy day ahead of me.
Bye, all! (^-^)/

>>444
Thanks

>>445
I guess it is kind of old...

Je deteste les anglais et les americain.

>>453
Why?
How about Japanese?

>>453
Soyez tranquille. Allez-vous -en.

If you don't like English or Americans, go away. This is the English board.

Wow, Hillary Clinton is running for the Presidential election, all righty!
and she looks extremely young and strong for her age, much so than
her husband, lol

Mr Remain East is likely to get his success for being a governor of that prefecture according to high voting rating.

Damn! He finally will be a governor

I am a NEET! You are NEETs! We are best friends each other!

My girlfriend's parents caught us when we were having sex! They were very upset.
I don't think I'll get to see her again. She isn't likely to go against her
parents. They are not wanting her to see me ever again.

>>462
Have some pity for the boy. Even if his ex-girlfriend is spineless. I hope he's a boy, at least... And that she's a young girl, as well.
It would be rather pathetic if they were legally adult and yet put themselves in this situation.

>>458, 459
I couldn't believe my eyes when the news report came in on TV,

to a certain extent..........

YOu fat Neets.lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

I am not a NEET. that's shocking news for this thread

Who loves coffee so much here in the thread as to pay a visit to
a thread that people discuss coffee?

I'm drinking bad coffee all day long...
Canned coffee, home-made coffee, etc

drinking a cup of coffee at from night through midnight may intervene in your falling into sleeping namely keeping you awake.

I don't have a lot of coffee. And you?

shut up euro fag

>>469
That is very unhealthy. You probably are seriously dehydrated. Make sure to
drink plenty of water, as well, and stop drinking that much coffee.

>>472
Who is the eurofag?

>>474
It is >>472. He likes talking to him self.

How many of you here?

Hay guys! what's goin on in this 2ch?!

I don't know. What's going on in that 2ch?

Im looking for a bento box, it cant be pinku (thats japanese for pink) or any girl color. It has to be
of 2 or more kotoba (thats japanese for 2 compartments) and has be be chibi (small) sized. And
has to be really kawaii (cute). Also It has to be about 10-20 bux. And you have to post pics of it
first (i want to make shure it's kawaii [cute]). And it would be nice if it came with matching
chopstick holder (WITH chopsticks). OH! and it CANNOT have any cartoon pictures, or be made
out of plastic. It has to be made of ceramic, or something like that. Also it would be nice if it was
made in japan. and not in china or corea (korea) or whatever. I have found a bento box similar to
the one im describing in e-bay, but it was 1 kotoba, and i dont want my gohan (rice) to touch my
other things (it can get wet and i would not like that, plus 2 compartments looks more kawaii)

Greetings from Canada!

>>476
A) Too many
B) Too few
C) Just enough

Pick one, they're all true.

What the fuck is this shit?

>>483
If you'd grasp that, your mind would explode.
Rest assured, you do not wish to know. Especially not about Yukorin.

read mein kampf!!

>>245

"totally" is used by young, albeit, preppy teenage girls.

>>485
I will. I would love to read the book where Hitler brags about people being morons.
Only idiots can read such a book, and still lick his boots.

so I heard you liek mudkips

totally!

Oh powerfull Odin why ?

Foreginers unite in quest to fuck japanese womenz!

>>490
Because you like taking it up the butt.

Onoez! Teh 4channers, they invade?!

>>479
I remember I read the same post somewhere

Anonymous does not forgive
Does not forget.

>>495
Anonymous forgot a period!

Wanna talk to me now?

Why draw shittingdicknipples japan? Is that your fetish ?

Will you shut up!

Całowanie to przyjemność więc pocałuj się dziś ze mną :D

This isn't for you, no. This is for us.

>>500
What the hell is that?!

Dude, you're gay to magic proportions.

How many kinds of farts have you smelt so far and whose fart is
your favorite?

>>504
Never one in vanilla, that's for sure.

I don't like pineapple. what about you?

>>504
Who the fuck does that ?
>>502
It's called Polish language :0

>>504
You're sick.No sane person smells farts.
Is that a fetish in japan?

>>507
This is an English board. Polish is prohibited! Rwahahaha

So i heard all japanese nerds watch anime and are sad (kinda like emos here) is that true ?

I can't polish it.

>>509 By the Emperor this is heresy, I declare Exterminatus upon you !

>>510
This board is being filled completely by you 4channers at the moment.
I somehow doubt anyone currently speaking even so much as resides
in Japan.

>>512
Exterminatus?! NOOOOOO!

So I heard sum things... about mudkips?

>>511
Thats used in racists jokes.

>>513 Do you reside in Japan or at least speak it ?

Fart smellers are famous in the world.

>>513
NO U!

This is the best board ever, I'm staying here forever ! heh

I speak for all the people around the world.

This is a very shitty board compared to 4chan.
4chan is shitty board compared to 7chan.

>>493
Apparently. Wasn't my doing though. I've been lurking moar here for months and months,
but never dragged the /b/tards into this.

>>521
I speak for myself.

>>520
How sad you didn't find more enjoyable board unlike me.

hai gais
wuts going on in this thread?

>>517
Do not reside, no. Speak a little/write a bit (need to learn more kanji), yes. Not enough, though...
Can only keep up small talk.

>>524
Will you open the window?

If 7chan had more bandwidth it would be the best board in the world.

>527
So this thread is made of 4channers only, haha oh wow.

I rule the thread. And I command you all to leave.

>>522
You're retarded. You can't compare this to 4chan. 4chan is an image board.
If you want to compare an image board with 4chan, then GTFO and go to 2chan,
not 2ch. There is a differents. Fucking idiots.

>>530
I'm not a 4channer.

"There is a difference."
I fucking lost my ability to spell today, apparently.

You nerdy idiots, I suggest you talk about your fart.

>>533
So you come to this board only ? 7chan ? 420chan ? any *chan ?

Tell me about the girl fight video.

>>531
you are destined to die alone in your smelly room.

>>536
I've been known to wander to 4chan or others every once in a while. It's just
that I don't frequent any one in particular. Heck, I arrived here only
yesterday.

>>537 YOu mean cat fight ? It's awesome to watch girls beat the shit out of eachother.

>>538
It takes two to tango.

>>540
Cat fight? Search for girl fight online, and you'll see what I mean.

>>532
Shutup notepad AI.

>>542
Girl fighting is called "cat fight" I don't know why.

Okay. I'm totally leaving this thread and I ain't coming back until you fucktards
either settle down and start discussing yukorins farts/lolicon/japanese politics,
like all the native Japanese 'tards, or start actually holding some proper conversations
or discussions.

i am the starting club of suicide

>>545
There are no japanese people here.

>>544
Seems like it differs from country to country how to call it.
Anyway, the point is, 3 American girls got arrested for it.
Have you seen their video clips?

>>547
I have no idea why you can say that.

>>548
I have seen many girls fighting, on youtube, p2p programs like (Limewire, ares etc.)
There are houndrets of those kind of videos.

>>547
It's almost half past one a.m. their time. What do you expect? Everybody doesn't
lack a life. Even most of the NEETs who visit this thread wouldn't post at this hour,
on this day. It's monday morning at their place.

>>547
There are also no people here .all posts are generated by computer.
Terminate transmission

Tell me how the girls fought.

Resistance is futile.

Are you guys expecting a ton of Japanese to still be on?
I mean sure, in other boards, probably. But it's like
1:30 in the morning there.

English speaking people are contained here, anable to get out
to get mixed up with lots of Japanese. Why don't you come along
with me and pay a visit to more energetic boards?
I can link you there.

>>555
We can wait, we are Anonymous after all, we don't sleep, we wait.

What happened to you?

>>557
Point taken.

Entertainment, sports, and music.

>>560
I don't know any japanese and i just see ?????? instead of letters.

How many people in here are studying Japanese?

>>561
At least, you can confirm how active the board is, can't you?

>>562
Only dedicated wapanese fags who have no life.

>>561
Install Japanese language support then.

>>562
*Raises hand*

>>564
Didn't know learning Japanese for business purposes classified me
as a fag who has no life?

The biggest issue discussed from the beginning of this year is,
about Akiyama. I doubt you know about him, though.

>>566
Not for practical reasons.

Actually, more than 60 threads were consumed just to make sure
he used oily cream before fighting. Do you have any interest
in this Akiyama issue? I can put the link to the webpage that
explains what Akiyama did.

>>569
Which Akiyama? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akiyama has like 20 definitions

>>570
Learning other languages is fun anyway.

>>571
Yoshihiro Akiyama?

>>572
This one. Have a look. It's in English.
http://www24.atwiki.jp/sweatslip/pages/23.html

>>573
That's right. The fighter Akiyama.

>>575
Ah. Yeah I heard something about him before; not very much though.

>>571
What waste of threads.Is it so important?

>>577
Just gossip crap. People have rattled on about less important issues.

>>571
Does 2ch discuss such petty stuff all the time?
Like Yukorin farts and Akiyama oils? Its like a celebrity gossip site.

>>576
Akiyama finally admitted that he put "body cream" which contained
vaseline. And Tanigawa, or the K-1 organizer, held a press conference
to say Akiyama's fighting money will be taken for what he did. Actually,
the rules of K-1 clearly says fighters can't use any cream before fighting..

>>580
Yeah, all that is outlined in the wiki article.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoshihiro_Akiyama

>>578
In imageboard site,that could be true.But this is text discussion.
And its the most popular topic to come up.Japan is weird.

>>582
>Japan is weird.
We've known that for a long, long time. Haha.

>>577
Very so.
Recently thanks to the development of the internet,
it came to light that the Japanese media sometimes
betray our trusts. People are angry at them.

Well, the point is, in Akiyama's case, people expected
fair fight, but Akiyama was not fair.

>>580
Wow... i guess it means anybody who has dry skin would have a hard time if he/she wants to be a figter...

i'm japanese but don't know who the hell he is, and i don't really care.

>>584
Are those tournaments really such a big deal over there?
Really, it's obvious something is going on there, so
theres not a ton to talk about...

>>583
Is that so? Don't you want to say something when Bally Bonz
breaks the MLB homerun record if he actually used banned drugs?

>>584
http://static.flickr.com/77/190545745_cbe1e6b36f_m.jpg

>>588
Not really. It's more of a passing fact, in my opinion. If he did,
he gets reprimanded. If he didn't, he didn't. Whoop dee doo. Big deal.
For hardcore fans it might be something to gossip about... but since
when does that include most people?

>>588
Whois Bally Bonz?

>>589
That is kind of how they want us to be. :P

>>588
I can't find Bally Bonz in wikipedia

>>593
I don't know who that is either. If it's even a real person. =(

>>585
That's not the point here.
As far as I know, you can't use oil when fighting in
mixed martial arts.
Why? Because when one fighter tries to grab the opponent,
oiled body is too slippery to take a grab at.

regist

>>593
And you can't imagine who I mentioned?

>>596
...o.O ?

Barry Bonds

>>599
Ohhhh. I see what you did thar.

>>597
What you said? in reply.
How can imagine what i don't know anything about.
Except a vague idea its some sport player.
Only sport fans care,and only some care about specific people.

Its apparently an american baseball player.
Never heard of him before.

Barry Lamar Bonds (born July 24, 1964 in Riverside,
California) is a Major League left fielder for the San
Francisco Giants. He is the son of former MLB All-Star
Bobby Bonds and the godson of Hall of Famer Willie Mays.

Bonds holds a number of Major League Baseball records,
including the most home runs in a single season set in 2001
with 73.

Through 2006, Bonds is first in career walks (2,426) and
intentional walks (645). He is 2nd in career home runs with
734, trailing only Hank Aaron who hit 755; Bonds also ranks
2nd in extra base hits (1,398), 3rd in at bats per home run
(13.0), 6th in on-base percentage (.443), runs (2,152),
slugging average (.608), and total bases (5,784), and 7th
in RBIs (1,930). Bonds also tops the list of career home

runs in the National League, having eclipsed Aaron's
previous record of 733.

>>590
Since when fighting matches were broadcast at the end of a year.
The audience rate is high.

>>603
Even if the audience was large, I don't see it being such a huge deal. It's like the superbowl here. I hear about it for a week or two, then everyone forgets. :D

>>603
Oh,that means 2ch has alot of sport fans.Kind of interesting.

No. They just have nothing better to do.

by the way i never watch TV or radio only Internet.

>>606
True that. ._.

>>605
Indeed.

>>606
I could imagine 20 different things that are better then sitting in front of the TV and watchign sport.

>>610
Only 20? Get to work, boy.

Good-bye, 4chan. I'm going to sleep.

But it's ok. Who does anyway?

Goodbye.2ch sleeps but
4chan never sleeps because people are in different timezones.

Who's the most famous and popular girl in Poland?

No idea.Try google trends

4ch is not so attractive that it's active.

>>614
2ch never sleeps either. It's just not as active in this thread during the night as during the day.
However, I bet a lot of hikki threads on other boards are very active during the night.

>>617
Do you mean 4-ch, or 4chan? There is a huge difference.

Tell me about your favorite thing to do, except for surfing the Internet.

Are you a racist?

>>621
Who are you referring to? o_o

Rumor says that America will strike Iran this year.

>>621
Nope. Being prejudiced against skil color would be very unbeneficial, in my life.
I meet a lot of professional, highly intelligent people, from all over the world.
Discriminating against them would be bullshit, because they really don't fit the
stereotypes.

>>620
All my favorite things are on internet.

skin color, not skil color

Racism is rediculous anyway. The entire concept is null and void.
There is no basis to any racist's argument.

>>625
*Steals your internet*
WHAT NOW?! WHAT WILL YOU EVER DO NOW?!

>>624
Deep down?

>>627
Individuals should be judged by their actions and their history, not the starters
kit they were randomly awarded at birth.

Precisely. Skin color has no bearing on a person whatsoever.
Big deal; people have different pigment. Nothin' to fight about.

>>623
There is a lunatic gossip site which specializes in such rumors.
http://godlikeproductions.com they are all abit crazy.

>>628
I'll use Ether-net instead.

>>629
Am I a racist deep down? No. I've learned too well that racist stereotypes
do not work. If it's a that faulty tool, why would I use it? It would be like
chopping my leg off and using a wooden stick for a leg, instead.

>>625
Nothing.My life will be more boring.

>>628
You're funny. I hope you return here.
Please visit other threads on this board, too.

>>632
But I watched on youtube that many WHITE people posted blah-blah-blah.

>>634
Create a local Wifi network!

>>638
I do not comprehend what you try to say, please resay differently.

And they said 4ch users raided it.

>>634
Don't j00 leech off me!

>>635
Agreed, except for the wooden-stick for a leg part. HAVE YOU NO
PIRATE PRIDE?!?! You must punish thyself for this misdeed!

>>627
I guess you have gotten to liked this board.
The number of posts today show you like here very much but I wonder how
long your interest in this thread last.

I guess in a week you'll get board and never come back here.
On second thought you seem to be studying Japanese so your visit
may last for a month or so. You must be a girl judging from your
frequent uses of emoticon?

Enjoy the water here until you get board.

>>638
Racists are everywhere.On internet one person can cause enough trouble to be perceived as popular opinion.

>>637
Thanks, I suppose.

>>641
4ch users raid nothing. They do not exist.
You have 4chan, which often raids sites. world4ch belongs to 4chan.

4-ch.net is a different site. They exist, but they raid nothing.

>>643
Actually, I'm male. I don't know if I'll stick around here or not.
It's a good place to pick up information about cultural differences,
and I am learning the language at all, so perhaps I'll be around
for a while. Yeah, suppose I do like this board.

>>642
Pirates do not have wooden stick legs. They have wooden legs. Wooden legs of AWESOME.
Thus my point still stands.

Er, *language and all

Typo, we meet again!

>>647
Excellent. Soon, you too will become a regular piece of furniture in this thread. BWHAHAAHA.
Ahem. ;-)

>>648
Touche.

I have to concur with the pure AWESOMEness of wooden pirate legs.

...But what will we ever do, if the ninja come to swipe the wooden legs?

It'll be a pirate vs. ninja showdown! WHO YA GOT?!

>>647
Do you have Japanese around in your real life to talk to in Japanese?

Have you ever chatted with Japanese?

>>650
Regular?! At least expensive... c'mon man, bustin' my balls here.

>>652
Didn't there use to be a Skype thread on this board?

What thread are you reading except this one, Ether-net?

>>652
None in person, no. But I do help a few Japanese (mostly females)
learn English online, so I do get to get a little practice in there.
Most of what I've learned is self-study; I don't have a class for it
or anything.

http://academy5.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/english/1161480009/l50
I'm guessing this is it. o_O

>>655
None at the moment. Too many kanji I can't read to go anywhere else really x.x

>>654
Skype board? That might be fun. Hell, I'm on Skype right now.
S'where I give the English lessons; that and MSN.

Ninja can throw a star. Did you know that?

>>656
Make sure you won't suffer from Japanese Girlfriend syndrome, when it
comes to your language learning.

>>661
Japanese Girlfriend syndrome? Haha, what's that?

>>658
Actually, there are more threads than this one in English, on this board.
I'll try to compile a quick list.

>>659
You can teach English in this board as well.
Do you know the "info-exchange" thread?

>>662
Using a too female language. As you surely know, females and males speak
differently. Children and elders do the same. There's more to it than just
the words used to reference to themselves.

>>659
I've only ever posted in this thread. Arrived here yesterday.

Also, if anyone wants to add me to Skype; feel free. Username voltekka.

>>665
Yeah, I'm aware of that. I do my best not to mess that up, though sometimes
it's hard, if all you can remember is the fem version of a word.

>>665
So you'll end up in talking like girls. In other words,
you seem like a gay person, right?

>>662
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_differences_in_spoken_Japanese

I wonder if males and females speak exactly the same way in English.

>>667
It'll be amusing, though a pain in the ass, to learn the different words.
Not that I'll get around to starting to learn Japanese within this year,
more than just the kana, apparently.
It'll be amusing to switch back and forth betweeen hyper-feminine and old-masculine speak.

>>671
The kana are really easy. Shouldn't take long to learn them. I learned hiragana in less than 2.5 hours, same for katakana.

Where has 4ch raiders gone? I miss them.

>>667
What part od Japanese girls do you find attractive or different compared to
american women? Do you wanna go out with Japanese girls?

>>674
I don't care about race, really. No more attracted to Japanese girls
than I am to American girls or African girls, etcetera.

>>670
It depends on where you are, and with whom. Some people speak in a very
feminine way, others speak in a very gender-neutral way, or masculine.

>>674
They wear kimonos.

>>673
As it's been said before:
4chan.org, not 4ch.

>>672
I know. You told us that earlier.

>>678
If I did, it was before I went to sleep. I don't remember, to be
honest. I don't go digging through logs yet.

>>677
Kimonos are neat. ^-^

Shit! I've not finished my preparation for the examination of Chinese.
Now I feel very sleepy, so I will take a bath to awake myself.

>>681
You have fun with that. :P

>>681
Ow.. Good luck!

It's easier for English people to learn the Japanese language
than for Japanese to learn English. So I heard.

>>684
I heard that too. Then I confirmed it with some Japanese friends of mine.

>>673
They forgot it.Until some proposes a new raid.
The raiders(the people who come to flood with their crap) are just kids and teens
who follow the herd mentality.Some trolls join them.
Most 4channers don't care.

>>685
They say Japanese sounds are fewer than English ones, meaning
English can identify every word Japanese utter; Meanwhile, Japanese
can't do all the words English utter. They can't hear spoken English.
