Too bad the Japanese school system is not updated enough to teach now Canada is the 51st state of the US.

bump

Canada's not fat enough to be part of the US yet lulz

Man, these are some sad responses from the japan side. i don't wana get into this argument but that's a lot of racism against china.

>>953
>>955

G.G.Sato, a plyaer of Sitama-Seibu, show his inner nose is full with his 鼻糞.
I think, he should clean up his nose.

Do you know G.G.Sato? He was a Japan international of Olympic last year.

Agreed. America is the mecca of racism.

As you can see Chinese and Korean are .....

What do urine samples and Canadian beer have in common?
The taste.

Is this how japs defend themselves? By attacking other races? Pitiful.

This thread is brought to you by Korean and Chinese. lol

as well as a fake Canadian impersonated by a fag.

>>922
>Have you ever heard of his name before?
No, but that's not saying much, since I am neither a fan of
yodeling nor of German TV. I've googled his name though,
and he does seem to be relatively famous for a yodel singer.
It's not surprising that he doesn't sell many CDs, not many
people listen to that kind of music, and as far as I know the
musicians make most of their money with live-performances.

>>930
>How do u feel about killing Jews?
Not sure, I haven't killed many of them yet.

>>928
Actually, I've seen it used quite a few times in various articles,
but it's definitely not an everyday word.

In other news, I just passed the last exam that stood between me and graduation! ｷﾀ━━━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━━━!!!!!
It was an oral philosophy exam. I owned hard in metaphysics and epistemology, but
didn't do too great in aesthetics. Still sufficed for a fairly good grade though (11 out of 15 points),
about as good as it gets without studying for it, I guess.
I'm just so glad that school is finally over.

>>965
After you graduate from university, your dream is to become a NEET?

>>966
Being a NEET would be awesome, if only it wasn't for the financial aspects...
I'll probably end up doing something to do with computer programming though, so
becoming a hikikomori who works at home would actually be a feasible goal.
I'm a bit skeptical about university though, not sure if it's the right thing for me.
But I'll probably give it a try for a year.

>>961

but not really.

Sorry I haven't posted for a bit, life is busy right now with exams
and all. Other stuff is going on too...but that's secondary.

Anyway, I have a question- I was recently reading an article from dannychoo.com
and it had lots of pictures of Japanese people sleeping in public, sometimes
in very strange positions. Is this common? Have any of you slept in public in
strange positions?

>>968
I don't know exactly what you want to mean.
In public? By that you mean, on the train or something? Then I think
you can come across such scenes sometimes, but I still don't get what kind of
position you have in head. Sleeping in the sitting position wouldn't be it (like
some do on the train). But if you think it strange to you then probably it's strange to me also.
That is, not common.

>>967
Are you a tech person as well as philosophy? That's something.

>>967
Wait. It thought you're graduating from uni. You're graduating from
high school? Gorvenment pay all the tuition for uni students in Germany, right?
If so, you should give it a try. At least you don't have to bear financial burden.
Is there such a uni you go to for just a year? Or you mean you go uni for
one year and decide if you keep going or quit?

>>968
I don't about strange positions but you often see drunk people who end up
sleeping on the bench at station or in the train, or other public spaces.

I don't think many people sleep with their heads kept up to the ceiling and
hands on their sides, legs put together. To a certain extent, people sleep
in strange positions. If you sleep on the bench, you insinctively try to
lie around and that causes strange position maybe?

What do you think about Iran? I read about the news that ex-president
was re-elected. Iran is suspected of developping nuke weapons, isn't it?
Iran and N.Korea must be dealing behind the scene concerning the development
of ICBM and Nukes.. I don't think N.Korea doesn't make big news in Europe/America,
but according to today's report, a spokesperson of N.K said North Korea would take
any hard action against America (Japan & South Korea) if any tiny sanctions are put
against it. I think N.K will conduct nuke experiments again..

>>971
I thought he would be fresh from uni, too. Didn't think Philosophy was
taught at high school there.

>>968
>You're graduating from high school?
Well, gymnasium. I guess you could compare it to
having gone through high-school and maybe 2 years or so
of college (that's how I explain it to Americans at least... Don't know
much about the Japanese school system yet).

>Gorvenment pay all the tuition for uni students in Germany, right?
Not anymore, unfortunately. In my state, attendance to a public university
costs something on the order of 10万円 per year. So In addition to
working part-time, I'll probably even have to take a credit.

>you mean you go uni for one year and decide if you keep going or quit
Yeah, that's what I meant.

>>974
I think I understand what you mean. Thanks.
The meaning of gymnasium is new to me. I understand it's sometimes
difficult to explain school system to people from different countries.

10万円, 100 thousands yen a year isn't expensive for university tuition.

foreign trolls get out

Haha so I'm a fake Canadian now? Sorry but this issue exists outside of just asia.
BBC's done stories on Japanese schools hiding the Rape of Nanking and other
WWII incidents from their textbooks.

Since you guys have no excuses for it I'll just assume you guys know how ridiculously
fucked up this is. Japan is just as bad as China when it comes to censorship.

>>977
Who gives a shit to official history education in Japan?
It just doesn't carry much weight here.
We all know it's BS, and we just don't care.
You might want to be more sensitive to the dichotomy between
the tatemae (fa?ade) and honne (true feelings).
The official denial of the Nanjing Massacre is a tatemae,
and our honnne is elsewhere.

>>976
So what ethnicity do you think >>930 is?

Um, this is an obvious troll,
or just an eleven year-old kid who doesn't really know how to navigate 2ch.
Either way, it's not really worth getting annoyed about.

Everyone writes English well.
If I do not use a dictionary ,I can not write English.
How did you study English?
Please point it out . if it is strange in my English.
I am sorry that a foolish elderly person wants to participate.

>>977
Also, the similar kind of "censorship" does exist in Western countries,
and you would be very naive to think otherwise.
It's just done so cleverly that the general public is not aware of it.

The quintessential example is the widely held view that the atomic bombs
in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which killed over 200,000 civilians, were needed
to end the Pacific War. Many professional historians, including Dr. Ronald Takaki,
a Professor Emeritus at UC Berkeley, have pointed out that the weapons of
mass destruction were unnecessary for that purpose. However, the U.S. hasn't
changed its stance on them, and numerous efforts have been made to
keep the information about A-bombs from the general populace.

>>982
あなたの英語は俺の日本語よりマシだな。
I can't write Japanese without a dictionary, either.

>>975
>100 thousands yen a year isn't expensive for university tuition.
True, and those fees aren't my main reason to contemplate not
entering university.
But I still think it's a bad political development that my country
has introduced tuition fees at all.

>>982
>How did you study English?
Me, I mostly played American computer games.
Just find a few things that are fun to you and that involve
reading and/or listening to English. As long as it's in the language
you want to learn, you will be learning that language.
It really doesn't matter what it is. Read about any topic that
interests you, watch movies, do whatever it is you usually do
for entertainment, except in English instead of in Japanese.

>I am sorry that a foolish elderly person wants to participate.
Oh, don't worry about that.
I don't think anyone here minds older people joining us.
Quite the opposite, actually.

Japanese letters are just to difficult for a beginner or dummie like me.

>>982
Don't worry.
We don't care of such a thing if you are not spammer.

As you can see I am not good at writing in English.
But I believe The most important thing to improve my English writing skills is
to keep writing in English.

I don't know if sentences written by me are wrong. lol

>>982
I almost agree with ドイツ人.
But if I add one more thing, German and English are in the same language group,
so their grammars are quite similar and many English words derive from German.
In other words, he had some advantage in learning English. But most Japanese people
who start to learn the language at 12 or 13 years of age should learn basic grammar
and words&idioms that aren't used in their daily lives. So it's tough to learn it especially
at an early stage, but after you are through with it, just do whatever you want to, coz
there's no goal when it comes to learning a language. In this point, I can't agree more with
ドイツ人.

I've heard that there are very few people who speak English in German, while
other Europeans speak English well. Esp Scandinavians are good at English.
Why this happens?

>>984>>985>>987
Thanks.
I try to write English and to be interested in English more.
All thanks you for kind word.
I am sorry for being able tp write only such a sentence.
I endeavor to be able to write English fluently.

Learn English really funny commercial

>>989,991
How far is this true?

Just the rumour...but my German friend who speaks almost fluent English
said people in general are not good at English in Germany...

I tried but I couldn't make a new thread.
Please make a new thread if you can.

Hey!!! you NEETs, nerds, YouＴube-link spammers, pedophiles, neo-Nazis,
Yukorin enthusiasts, Nanako SOS admirers, Part-Time-Preachers,
Diplomats' spoiled sons, losers who can't remember Kanji characters,
Big-boobs fans, Weeaboos from all over the world, learners of Japanese
who are too lazy to update their Japanese blogs very often, and cunning
linguists. And let's hope the Internet-addicted housewife will come back soon!

Here is the place to have a ball!!!!!
