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!!!!!

キルロイ参上w

Good job, you moron!
Thumbs up to you, idiot!

I've read that due to a typhoon with unusually heavy rain some areas of
Japan were flooded and that there was an earthquake as well...
anyone here affected by it? Is everything ok?

As far as where I live, I'm OK, but some people in other threads in English board said
that they were waken up by shakes.

Anyone want to play fantasy football with me?

Hello! Nice to meet you! Would you like some tea?

>>34
I think I could do some of the things you listed because they don't
require English fluency.

------------------- -------------------- ------------------- ------------------
It's Obon at this time of year. In short, it's time for a family gathering.
Students, workers and almost everyone go back to their hometown to spend
Obon. People including me who post in 2ch in Japan in this holidays are garbage who have
nothing else to do but wasting time on the Internet.

Many people living in Tokyo are from the other parts of Japan so at this time
of year, the population of Tokyo become small because they go back to their hometowns.

For religious aspects of O-bon, this page is good.
http://www.nova.ne.jp/mamechishiki/contents/NOVA_STATION_DATA/station/snapshot/snap9908-2.html

>>41 in that case you've got the job mate! You are fluent anyway.

I heard about O-bon but did not know much about it, so thank you very much forthe link.
It is a bit like ancestor worship in some countries. Ancestors are
remembered and their graves are visited at certain times of the year.

I suddenly felt sad for the people who don't go, or cannot go. I am sure they must be feeling
sad. Maybe you should not call them garbage. They are all precious human beings. Look, you
have taught me something new.So please don't ever devalue yourself.

I may not be able to write here for a acouple of weeks,

chat to you when i return

>>40 Thank you!

>>42
You must be on vacation for weeks.
I envy you. Have a good vacation.

Anybody here? Hello!!

>>45 I'm here.

sing a song.

The place where it sleeps with the train, and it is now I is not understood.
It embarrassed it.

Brian,
Top marks for not tryin'
So kind of you to bless us with your effortlessness
We're grateful and so strangely comforted

And I wonder are you puttin' us under
Cause we can't take our eyes off the t-shirt and ties combination
Well see you later, innovator

Why are you guys still in a world of shit?

> No not a vacation at all. I have guests visiting from abroad. I haven't had a vacation
for years now. I worked hard through the summer. I need a holiday badly.

>>50
Poor things. I am in a beautiful world.
Do you envy me?

You wanna get hiiiiiiiiiiiigh?

When you weigh the importance of work and 2ch, 2ch wins, which is obvious
for NEET, but for normal people work is more important for some reason.

There's a big gap in a way of thinking between NEET and normal people.
To narrow the gap, I've just decided to make a kingdom of NEET where NEET educate
normal people, preaching how important 2ch is in your life. The first king of
the kingdom is NORIAKI. He'll force normal people to relocate to NEET kingdom.

He shall allow firestar to sow appleseeds throughout the NEET kingdom.
He'll be a legendary person called firestar appleseed.

I'll rap about something. Just one line.

I am a loser, a microphone abuser.

Aiko Kitahara !!

Do you like shabu shabu?

Almost all American guys are just spoiled brat .

kick a ball
sing a song

a bench under the tree

We are in a world of shit.

What happened to Nori-P and her drug abuse?

>>61
I am a chemist.
I can make LSD.
YES, I CAN!!!

>>62
TAKE ME ON A ROCKET RIDE!!!

Why don't you make LSD?

No, it's too gay for me.

Stop shitting around.

Hey,Let me ask you some question.

What kind of MMO-RPG GAME do you play now?

I wanna play something. what do you recommend?

I think I wanna play something for international if possible.
The reason for this is allowing to play game and to learn English at the same time.

Is this sentence good? Please correct.

ronnie is gorgeous.
jack is attractive.
oliver is cute.

I'm pseudo-Briton.


Nice to meet you, everybody XD

It's honor to meet you in person.

>>68
o I think I wanna play something international if possible.
x I think I wanna play something for international if possible.

o The reason for this is so that I can play a game and learn English at the same time.
x The reason for this is allowing to play game and to learn English at the same time.

Aikooooooooo!!!!!

KITAHARA

>>67
Me, I've only played a few trial versions of different MMORPGs back in 2004,
for a month or so in total. Been staying away from them ever since.
But you might find this site pretty useful:
http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/show/released/sCol/finalRank/sOrder/desc

Stop shitting around.

>>75
Shit around, shit around, shit shit up and shit down!

So, エロゲ is illegal now? What's the deal?

>>73
日本語でおｋ

>>72
Thank you for your help.

>>74
Fmm.You only play a trial version?
That means you have never found good MMOs ?

Anyway,I'll check the site you paste here out thanks.

Hey! What's up?

I have a stuffy nose from hey fever!
are you shre about this?

At last We got BUTA-INFURUENZA in our company.
Should I take a rest?

Why are you afraid of it?
You should spend ordinary days.

Really?
Buta fulu is bloody doomed virus!!

You should leave Japan as soon as possible!

I wanna leave from JP, but cannot get the ticket.
Where can I get it? Your house?

I dont have any tickets for leaving japan.

But YOU HAVE NO CHOICE

You should go to Africa or somewhere.

Or you will DIE!!!111

so , why don't we watch a video and learn some english?
http://youtube.com/watch?v=D8g9GEmTPBE

//////
Do you like this top?

So gay!

Really?

Ya, it's totally gay!

You know, you really shouldn't say that.

Say what?

Say that something is gay when you mean it's bad. It's insulting.

What if every time something was bad, everybody said: that's so "girl-wearing-a-skirt-as-a-top"?

Oh, you are!

Those are cute jeans, though.

When you say, "that's so gay", do you realize what you say?

Knock it off!
//////

yeah,now you can know that "that's so gay" mean something bad in english,
and this video try to discourage people misuse the sentence .

>This video has been removed by the user.

You are so gay.

oh sorry,you can try this link again.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVicCD8FmMs

Funny video lol

i didnt know what So gay mean.

I know So gay means BAD right now.

I'm getting clever.

What does Straight people mean?

I watched another gay-speech video.
He talked about Straight people.

I checked my dictionary but I coudn't find it.

"Straight" means "heterosexual" as opposed to "homosexual".

Straight people mean the men who love women and have sex with them.
I think you know which part of body is straight with these men.
The opposite word is gay.

Oh I got it thanks.

>>92
Just a bit of slang etymology...
The term 'straight' is used for heterosexuals because, in decades past,
the term 'bent' was used as slang for homosexuals.

>>94
That makes sense!
In a nutshell,Homosexual is a bad thing like bent vegitable, isn't it?

>>79
Nah, that's not it. I remember that EVE Online, for example, was pretty fun
and had a cool community at the time. It's just that I noticed how those
games suck away way too much time for my tastes, especially since you
build up a sort of social obligation to the people you play with. That's
exactly what makes them interesting for learning foreign languages, though.

too much hot!

bent or straight was the distinction...
reasonable.
But why is sharing bodies among males bent?
could you give me your commment?

What happened to this world of shit?

bent vegetables help us now
cus vegetables became expensive because of heavy rain.

this world is good and bad.
make more good of this world.

>>101
Who can make more good of this world?
You know?
Which political party do you back up?

>>100
does your handle name have a meaning? Is it a "四字熟語”？
Or is it your real name?

>>103
I would like to ask you same question.

>>103
It's his real name. That explains how wierd he is besides his pervert like posts
you often see in other threads.

Kazukichi sensei is our last hope. I believe in the power of love.

>>106

You must be Kataoka.

>>107

You must ne Kintama.

>>108

you retard.

We are totally in a world of shit again.

hey whats up!

Nice to meet you, sir.

　　Real face of Olive Oil finally revealed!!

Please see the top page of the Spa-thalasoo Amakusa.

http://www.spa-thalasso.jp/thalassotherapy/

And pay attention to a woman on the leftmost side among 3 women who put on swimsuits.
She is my acquaintance, and 58 years old actually.
In addition, she is a friend of Catherine, who is foolish talent Suzanne's mother.
Can you believe this impact fact?

Your 58 year-old friend is a super-mature woman, no one would want to see her in a swimsuit.
Suzanne is a cuite, but again, who the hell would care for her mom?

Say, what's a normal age for people in Japan to get an own apartment?
I know that in America, you're regarded as a loser if you still live
with your parents as a 21 year-old. The people I went to school with are
all around 20 and most of them still live in their parental homes. The only
exceptions I can think of are those who either married, are going to study
in another city/country or have rich parents who pay the rent for them.
Me, I used to plan to move out within one year after graduating from
school (which I did this summer). But now I'm also planning to stay in
Japan for 6 to 12 months while studying for my Master's degree (after
3 years of studying for my Bachelor's degree at home), which complicates
matters a little.

>>104
Are you Japanese or a foreigner?
I was called Dr.G in earlier incarnations of this thread, 'G' probably because
I'm German and 'Dr.' perhaps because I come across as a pretentious,
pseudo-intellectual asshole at times. ドクター is simply the Japanese
rendition of Doctor, and I found it mildly amusing that G/ジー and 自慰 are
homophones, with the latter word meaning "masturbation"

>>105
ah, thanks.

Ummmm, I went to Indonesia festival in Yoyogi the day before yesterday,
I realized Indonesian girls are fuckin' cute.... most suprising thing is their skin
is close to white... They were busting a move there with their tits boucing.

I wanna get Indonesian girls.....

>115
What do you mean by get an apartment? If you mean you buy it and own it,
average Japanese people buy it when they get married. Usually it's impossible
to pay the whole amount of money for an apartment, you have to pay monthly like when
you rent it.

If you mean living away from your parents by "get an apartment," I think you start to live
away from your parents when you go to university which is away from your parents' home.
In this case, your parents send money to you including monthly rent.
After you get a job, you pay rent on your own.

And in Japan, it's not considered a loser if you live with your parents
even after you get a job if your workplace is near your parents' home.
It's just a way to save money to live your parents.

When you get married, you start to live away from your parents.
But some people continue to live with their parents after getting married.
In Japan's society, it's not uncommon. There are advantages to this.

If you and your wife work, you can ask your parents to take care of your
kids while you work. Your parents can give you advice about child rearing first hand.
And if your parents get older and weak, your wife can take care of them.

>>116
I thought their skin is dark.

>>118
It's a difference in Japanese and Western culture.
Japanese are more family or community minded, and frequently you can find 3 generations
of the same family living in one house.
In the West, the culture is more geared towards the individual, and everyone wants
to be independent and only think of themselves and look after themselves,
so they all want to live alone.
Not many people buy apartments anymore, they are too expensive; now they rent.

>>117-118,120
Thanks for the answers.
I guess Germany is somewhere between the US and Japan in this respect, then.
Actually, it used to be much the same way as in Japan, but just as with
everything else, we've heavily shifted towards American culture.

It's so hot even if you stay in home.
You have to drink something even if you aren't out in the sun because dehydration
and heat stroke can happen even when you stay at home all day.

Actually some elderly people have died of heat stroke even when they stay home.

Let's get in a world of shit.

Let's get hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh

It's too hot after midnight.

It's deadly humid tonight;)

>>126
Humidity is good for resisting the skin aging.

Another scorching day has started!

Don't make your world shitty like this!

Maybe it's just me but sun rays are so strong that when I look out the
window to see outside world, it looks glaring in silver.

It's like sun rays are made of broken tiny pieces of aluminum foil if you know what I mean.
Just looking outside makes this room's temperature go up some degrees.

Mama〜just killed a man〜♪

Blood rack barbed wire〜♪
Politicians' funeral pire〜♪
Innocents raped with napalm fire〜♪
21st century schizoid man.♪

Love tit for tat
it scared shit outa me.

Greetings from Las Vegas!
How's Japan today?

Are you a native english speaker?

No. I'm from Hong Kong acutally, in the middle of a business trip.

fine. so, how did you find this forum?

2ch is famous enough for most of the web-surfers after the big blast of　電車男.
Sometimes I'll come wandering for AA or funny shits.

hahaha OK

Oh my Sakai Noriko! My Godness! It's an epic fucked up!

I enrolled in Rikyo uni this year.

but I always am said ﾞmarch(笑)" by 2 chanel users.

I cannot understand why they tease my uni.

not chanel but channel. that is why they slag off your university. OK? prat

Maiko Kano in Japan women's volleyball is quite lovely.
I don't think Japanese woman's level should throw away if there is a player like Kano.
We can boast of Kano's face to other countries.
The other six players are unnecessary and I want Kano to fight against China and Brazil alone.
If it is Kano, Japan must win even 1 VS 6?

>>141
In 2ch Rikkyou isn't considered to be a good uni.
Putting aside whether your uni is good or not good, I'm sure you as a person is
an idiot.

You've made a stupid thread just for your own benefit. That's the thread you made
for the sake of your own benefit, not other people in 2ch.
All you care is you get good score on TOEIC, which nobody cares.

Anybody who makes a shitty thread like you deserves abusive words.

>>142
thank for teaching me.

General 2 channelers only slag off people ,but u dont

I think such a this help each other will lead to the good 2 channel future

The most funny thing about Rikkyo university to me is when they gave
Bill Gates Rikkyo uni's diploma when he visited the uni and gave a lecture
a few years ago.

As you know, he is a dropout of Harvard so she doesn't have a diploma so
Rikkyo's president gave him Rikkyo's diploma. Nobody wants Rikkyo's diploma.
You can imagine Bill Gates thought to himself "This is wortheless."
Maybe he thought,　"猛苦笑."

>>144

thats right

I was forggting 2ch is for everyone and not mine

I regret now what I did

sorry....

I am recommended to ask a question here. It's difficult.
Please answer for me, if you are all right.

The following is the old cm which I can't fully grasp
what he is saying.(Audios are of the same content,
but quality may differ)

http://d.hatena.ne.jp/video/niconico/sm407438
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-Am5Z7K1Pc

I think he says ....

The memories of burned sky
The legend of Bahamut
***

I can't catch 3rd phrase. Could anyone teach me it?

>>147

forgetting


I will follow you wherever you go

ちょ、大変申し訳ないんだが、英文が下手すぎる

>>149

fuckme!


>>150
u broke the rule! u naturally must punish!

>>148
I am sorry, I misread in original thread. I was not guided to
post a question here. I was suggested to call for help here.
Anyway, I think this place is less suitable than the question thread
for learning q and a matters. Then I hope anyone kind enough will
visit
http://academy6.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/english/1218442480/
and give me an answer. Sorry for my misdeed.

We seem to have been in a world of shit all along.

Who fucking cares? Get a life.

Another hot day has started in Japan. Do you guys sleep with AC turned on?
I don't and when I wake up in the morning, my body is already sweaty. Disgusting!

It was sooooooooooooooooooooooooo hot today.

Someone who's fat must have became grilled stake walking on the street.

It's 41℃ at noon and 28℃ right now in the mid-night, with 5% humidity.
A fan should be good enough.

I wonder if Hokkaido is hot too. I went there on August 2004, Sapporo is freaking hot and my freaking dorm had no Air Con.
I ran thru the whole city and couldn't buy a freaking fan!

I wonder if there is a shitless world ever found in the universe unlike where we are in now?

>>158
Hokkaido is a cool place.
The high of late twenties and the low of under 20 in Sapporo tomorrow, which locates
in south part of Hokkaido. Places in middle and north part of Hokkaido must be
coller than Sapporo.

I've ever been to Hokkaido twice.
Snow was blowing but spring was hot.

I have a question for some of you Japanese folk.

Are you surprised to know that westerners do not slurp noodles? It is
considered highly rude here in America and in Europe also.

>>161
Here's a little pointer for you and anyone else who isn't sure: You cannot use 'ever' like that! Only in questions, together with 'only' or when you are saying you have never done something.

× I've ever been to Hokkaido twice.
〇 I've only ever been to Hokkaido twice.
〇 Have you ever been to Hokkaido?
〇 I haven't been to Hokkaido, ever.

>>162
Yeah, I was surprised when I first knew that Westerners don't slurp at all.
I was curious to know how they manage not to slurp because when we eat noodles, it's difficult not
to make sounds. The fact that it's difficult for Westerners to make sounds when eating noodles was
eye popping. It was like, how can they cope with the sounds?

It's not that Japanese HAVE TO make sounds when eating noodles.
It's just that we don't care if we make sounds that comes naturally when eating noodles.
I try not to make big sounds when eating noodles although I don't go as far as to try to make no slurping sounds.

Hearing someone eating with big slurping sounds is annoying. If I am eating noodles next to a person
like that, it would be difficult for me to stop this urge to punch him in the face.
It's just that Westerners take zero tolerance policy against slurping while Japanese people take
generous tolerance policy. I'd say.

Not slurping soba noodles is considered highy gay over here.

Though I'm a gay, I can eat soba noodles.

You learn comparative forms in English grammer such as hot, hotter, hottest.

BUT in Japan its hottest, hottest, hottest!
It's the matter of how hottest! I'm starting to melt.

What cup noodle do you like?
I love Chicken Ramen.

I think you'd better melt and disapear.>>167

I wish I could melt and disappear. I wish I were chocolate or ice cream
or something like that.

Chuka-zanmai is the best!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fk0Ai0fTjRY

Look at this video. This is women's 800m race. The athelete on the 4th
lane won the gold medal but there is commotion behind "her" victory.
She looks like a man actually.

He, rather, "she" sounds like a man, too.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-bqET22vEU

As of now, she refuses to take a DNA test or something for them to judge if she is
she or he, claiming it's a racial discrimination. She claims if she were white, nobody
would force her to take a biological test.

I think it's strange for her to bring in a racial issue here.
I'd say she should take the test to prove herself.
She's 19 years old and maybe she grew up believing she really is a girl.
Some people have features of both genitals, penis and vagina.
Some people have extremely small penis that even looks like a clitoris.
Maybe be she's androgyne.

>>172
Or maybe she was fed all kinds of hormons/steroids ever since she was a
child, to make her a better runner.

We usually have 2 or 3 weeks of uncomfortable heat per summer around here.
Those weeks seem to be over for this year, thank goodness!

ここで英語をひけらかしてるアホの鼻をへし折ってくださいm(__)m

And you know what, I had a wonderful dream while lying in the bathtub yesterday
I dived into the sea and it turned into shit, fish, seaweed, jellyfish, everything
turned into poo, even Allah himself.

>>174
He doesn't know there are a lot of people here who can't speak Japanese.
He doesn't know......because he can't read English.lol

Hey ladiiiiiiies, get funky

We eat noodle, slurping as loud as we want.
It's not bad manners at all. It's good manners for eating noodle.
We appreciate noodle with five senses and taste it through throat.
If you don't slurp noodle, you can't appreciate the real savor.
That means you can't understand the Japanese deep culture.

Soory, mistyped again.
not noodle
but noodles
Just Japanese prone mistake, not have deep meanings.

>>173
Dr.Self-Abuse!
Your name makes me disgusting.
Don't you feel embarrassed about that?

You amazingly ugly.

>>180
I suppose he is just enjoying being silly.
It's common here 2chan-world.
I like to say silly things here, as well as him.

For instance,
I hear You Westerners have the 'deep throat' culture.
We eat noodles (slurping is encouraged).
You eat cocks (slurping is encouraged).
Neither are rude.
(But I am straight and don't suck cocks.)

Do you understand the 2chan shit world?
Or you call me ugly?

>>181
I don't want to talk with a dirty old man like you.
and your sentense is too long. cut it short into 3 lines.

>>182
Why do you hate 181?
I don't want to read long sentense, by the way.

>>183
If you feel it long, you think it boring.
If you feel it short, you think it interesting.

>>173
Where did you get that ちんこラーメン from?

There is no native speaker of English in this thread.

>>185
What do you mean by ちんこラーメン？
When Dr.Self-Abuse ejaculates, ラーメン comes out of his dick instead of semen?
It won't happen, even though he loves ラーメン so much.

And I don't think he is a working poor.

>>187
If you look carefully for it, you'll see what i mean.

wwwwwwww

He slurps noodle-like dick?
I don't understand at all!

Why must they fingerprint me when I arrive in Japan?
It's pointless.
When I steal your things, I'm going to be wearing gloves.

>>191
Go back where you belong,Criminal!

>>191
Don't go around saying that out loud. Next thing you know, they fingerprint you with gloves on.

>>185
Found it somewhere on 2chan. >>168 reminded me of it.

>>180
Nah, I didn't make you disgusting. You were disgusting to begin with, and will always be.

>>179
yeah, it's a bit difficult to wrap your mind around this plural←→no-plural difference.
I've noticed that some westerners append TACHI to all kinds of words, for example.

>>193
Your English is difficult to understand just a little bit.
More symply please.

>>193
No need to use easy English for the Japanese.
I like your English and want to learn natural English here.

Does he speak　in ”Natural English"?
Really?
I can't recognize it.

>>193 is German if I remember correctly.
But he seems like very fluent in English. At least his English is a lot better than mine
judging from his posts.
We, English learners can learn a lot from his English.

I stink.

I am looking to purchase a car.
I can't decide between the Toyota Supra Mark III and the Nissan 300zx z31.
Which one of those should I buy? Or is there a better car?
I can't spend too much money.

You stink because you are steeped in a world of shit.

>>199
If you post things like that, it's better for you to put images of the both type of the car.
If you want to be an environmentally friendly guy, you should only ride a bicycle.

those cars demand many costs to maintain.

Why don't you buy small size car?

Motorcycles are the way to go. Small, fuel efficient, fairly cheap... and fucking cool.
A downside is that you have to get the M1 license.
Well, that, and if you get into an accident, you're much more likely to die. But who cares? You'd die looking so cool.

Shouldn't you really only add tachi to oretachi「俺たち」
or watashitachi 「私たち」
adding tachi on to these words would make it [we are] right?

Usually, it works fine with living things that way, but it'd be odd if you put it at the end of non-living objects.
Say, you have a set of speakers connected to your PC -- you call them スピーカー, not スピーカーたち.
If you felt really attached to them, perhaps more so than to your girlfriend, then you could but
some people might think you're a weirdo.

Sentence is way of the language. But Subject is not function in apeal.

>>212 I can understand you are a TRUE MORON.

what's mean?

Raｒi-P is a new slang word that refers to a happily intoxicated person.
It is derived from the famous celebrity Noriko Sakai, otherwise known as Nori-P.

what a bunch of idiots we have in a world of shit!

including you

Wonder what it feels like to be a Rari-P.

feels like flying over the whole world in a single brink.

I mean single blink

I mean the whole world of shit

Where has the MJ news guy gone?

I read an article the authority has come to conclusion that he was
murdered. I need to be updated by the MJ news guy.

What is the MJ news guy?

He's already out of a world of shit. Don't try to drag him into it.

>>228
MJ is Michael Jackson.
The MJ news guy fills us in on updates about the death of Michael Jackson.

To tell the truth, though, I skipped his posts so I don't remember anything he wrote here.

>>231
I like his posts because they were so informative.

I'm not the MJ news guy, there is some new news.
His doctor apparently gave him a lethal combination of sleeping drugs on purpose.
The doctor denies it of course, saying that he never prescribed anything that "should have" killed him.

>>233
We lost a very precious thing, Michael Jackson...

Well, it's not like he had really done anything significant for the last 20 years or so.
Except build a creepy theme park.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/tunnelbug/sets/72157603558879859/

I agree with the creepy part but his footprints he left in our hearts
is too big to ignore.

I think Michael Jackson was in a world of shit.

Where is *school girl*?

At school.

Don't be ridiculous. I want to find a school girl here in the world of shit.
It'd be like an angel decending to purify the dirt from this world, wouldn't it?

Where is イギリス人?

I've recently read that a famous Korean spirit known as "tonsuru" is made from shit.
I don't think all Korean people love to drink shit alcohol, but still it's really interesting
to know there are some people who drink something shitty. Do you think it actually smells of shit?

>>242
I've never heard of the Korean spirit, but I know of
"Kopi Luwak, Alamid coffee or Civet coffee", which is coffee
made from undigested coffee beans in Civet faces.
Since those things are usually fermented, I don't think they smell
like shit, but still, I prefer regular drinks.

If you're interested in both drugs and feces, I suggest you google for "Jenkem".

I crossed street when traffic light is red because no cars could be seen
coming. Don't blame me for breaking traffic law.

It's just Slim Shady. Slim Shady in me whispered me I could cross the street even if
the traftfic light was red.

What meaning is "Slim Shady"?

It's FAQ.

Slim Shasy is the dark side of your character.
I know you sometimes steal some money from your mom's purse.
I know you just listen to the whispers of Slim Shady in you and follow
his instruction.

>>246
It is one of the made up names of a rapper in the US, Eminem.
Rap is very silly, IMO. He is a silly person.

>>248

He is. Everyone knows that Noriaki is DA REAL.

>>248
I agree with you that most rap is silly but at least Eminem had some
songs that were mildly amusing.

>>249
Are you a Tonsurer, or a drinker of shit?

>>250
But Noriaki claims even Eminem is fake and only Noriaki himself is da real and I couldn't
agree with him more.

Oh what a fucking world of shit.

>>252
Drink Tonsuru!!

Nori-P is now saying that she has wanted to stop using the drug, but
couldn't, and the amount she was using was increasing.
But on TV, she looked quite normal, i.e. not too skinny or her skin and
hair were not that damaged etc.
I wonder what has kept her look normal and even enabled to deceive
the eyes of the people who chose her to play the leading role in the
video to promote the lay judge system?

>>255
I think she was skinny when I watched the video in which she pretends to
be jellyfish.

Nori-P or Rari-P. That's the question.

>>257
Are you a Tonsurer?

Maiko Kano looks like Hakkina.

Akkina is Akina Minami.
Yukkina is Yukina Kinoshita.
Mokkina is Daisuke Motoki.

Then, who is Hakkina?

Hint: It is not celebrity. It is a general woman.

>>258
Who is he?

>>258
Tonsuru is one of my favorites.

>>261
I googled it. Tonsuru （トンスル）is alcoholic beverage human or dog's poo melted in it.
It's Korean alcohol beverage. I would say no thank you.

I've had a cup of korean liquor named マッコリ before. It was just ok, but I like it because it sounds like モッコリ.

they both are the same in the meaning of nasty stuff.

Hello

>>261
So you are a tonsurer! How does it taste? Is it shitty?

Why would anyone drink anything made of shit?

>>267
Nearly nobody drink it.
Just Korean drink it.

How デブ　are you? 200 pounds?

How do you do?

I listening to music.

but...I'm very very hungry!!

This is a pen.

I love her.

It never runs out.

>>276
I'm not 275 but thank you for the correction.
I want to learn natural English here.

>>267
Ask Koreans why. I don't know. But it sure is interesting to know alcohol beverage
can be made from shit. I don't want to try it, though.

I'm not Korean.
I suppose it did work for health.
Poor people had to try anything including shit.

Why poor people had to?

They had tonsuru because of lack of money?
I thought tonsuru was a traditional Korean beverage they enjoyed drinking.

Drinking alcohol beverage and medicine was too expensive for the poor.
Shit is easy to get for free as ingredient.
And it had gradually become their culture, I guess.

I listening to music,Eminem!

Today is Michael Jackson, Bae-Yong Jung,and my birthday.

I wish you had died instead of Michael Jackson.

>>285

>>285
Yeah.

The very few leisure for the poor.
No wonder there is a lot of shit in 2channel.

what do you guys expect to the tomorrow's election?
Anyway cast your vote guys !

>>291
I will run for the next presidential campaign.

The working poors, becoming working poors, and non-working poors(who lost their jobs) will seize the fate of the election.

The business people who want to ride a winning horse will bring the DPJ landslide victory.

What's DPJ?

>>295
Are you a foreigner living outside Japan?
DPJ stands for Democratic Party of Japan.
Since the DPJ is sure to win now, business people start to show obvious support for the party.

boring

Ozawa frightened the nation into voting the Democratic Party of Japan.
He said that the nation who vote the Jimin-tou won't be entitled to have political opinions.

The winning party will favor their voter in return.
That's the simple rule in the politicis.
Every trade person wants to ride a winning horse.

I am a strong leftist!
Where are the other communists in Japan?
Let's start a revolution!

http://scienceofghosts.wordpress.com/

This is a blog where professors judge whether ghost photos are real ones
or not. Check it out.

You are one of working poors who wish to raise the minimum wage(per hour) to one thousand yen, aren't you?
You can count on The Japanese communist party.

>>302
Yes, I am voting for the JCP.
Also, I think it is important to get rid of the US from Japan. T
Everyone should vote for JCP.

The increasing poor people will make The JCP wealthy.
And the wealthy JCP can't make the poor wealthy.
That's all.

There is no way JCPenny's going to take over Japan anytime soon. You guys are stupid.

But the JCP is likely to gain momentum in this election.

>>304
Well, I agree.
The JCP isn't really communist.
But it is better than nothing.
It is best for them to get elected than another party.

Jimin-tou is best.

>>308
The LDP is a losing dog.
I'm sure you are also a losing dog.

Smells bad

The Liberal Democratic Party turns to The Losing Dogs party.
It's obvious for everyone's eyes and nose.

Zainichi foreigners will soon get the right to vote if the DPJ (Democratic Party of Japan) wins. Yay!

The dramatic day has come when the losers revive.

We seemed to have many tonsurers here in a world of shit yesterday.

>>311
I slept too much during classes, threfore my eyes became small.
I yawned too much during classes, therefore my mouth became small.

Stop shitting around.

Don't disgrace Kiyoshiro!
He is the King of Kings!

Stop feeding the Tonsurer.

I didn't mean to feed the Tonsurer of course. They do just exist on their own.
And hey! It's one of the Korean traditional drink. So we should respect it.

Are you guys done with your voting?
I did my share, and am waiting for the news tonight with a
mosquito bite on my leg from the election post.

>>322
I thought at first you are an entrepreneur.
But when I saw the part,
>with a mosquito bite on my leg
I understood you are showa era born poor.

>>323
I don't understand the relationship between
the mosquito bite and Showa.
Do you mean that the Heisei-born poor are Swine-flue-prone
but not mosquito-bite-prone?

>>324
Don't think too much. It was just an imagery.
Living along with mosquito biting reminds me Showa.

>>321
Don't drink too much of tonsuru. You can't get out of a world of shit.

>>327
Enjoy the world then if you don't have the place to go.
I have no money, so I have no alternative but to stay here 2chan to enjoy for free.

You don't want to get drown in a bathtub full of tonsuru, do you?

I want to be squashed into a train full of big boobed women.

You are qualified to stay shitty with tonsuru in your stomach.

You must be a tiny boobed woman.

>>241
He's been given more responsibility at work, as well as longer hours and
a larger workload. But more pay? No. Of course not.

I want to be that I can speak English.
Could someone teach me English?

>>334
Are you dumb enough to think that English can be taught by communication
in an Internet forum? Give me a break, dude.

Noriaki-ism can be conveyed even in a forum like this, though.

>>333
What do you think about 'White collar exemption (payment system)' which has been discussed lately in Japan?
Now,
The more you work long hours, the more you earn (overtime allowance) a lot.
But,
This system may be abolished and introduced fixed salary system.

>>336
I'm sure they are in a world of shit, drinking tonsuru.

>>335
Noriaki-ism?
That NORIAKI IS THE SHIT slogan we are bored with?

"What would you like to drink, sir?"

"Just a naked tonsuru, please."

I shouldn't have left Australia.

Failed meme is failed

>>340
What's the matter?
Miss the days of light-hearted crocodile wrestling,
untroubled by pesky zookeepers?

>>339
Drink Tonsuru until you are satisfied.

I find it ironic that the Liberal Democratic Party is conservative.
Seriously though, socialist-capitalism works, Communism, no.

>>342
Haha! You're very funny but he/she could be a kangaroo.

If you want to learn Japanese, you can watch his videos.
He resembles me of the African American actor whose name I forgot.
Morgan Freeman! Yeah, he looks like him somehow. I couldn't watch his videos much
because he looks scary but maybe he's nice at heart.

Maybe it's just me but I thought he wants to be a gangsta? You decide.

This man introduces himself in German, English and Japanese.
I guess you'll be motivated to study Japanese by listening to his Japanese.

Hi, Fish-san and 2chan-sters, how are you? back from my break,
during which I had guests over from overseas.
On my return I have received a gift and a letter from parents'
very close Japanese friend. I was worried that she was very ill as
she did not reply to my letter last Christmas (apparently she was).
The good news is she is better now and she is visiting the UK next year!
I am going to meet her and talk to her in what little Japanese
language I have picked up. On one hand I am very keen to speak Japanese,
on the other, I am worried that I might make mistakes. Perhaps
I should apologise beforehand. (Pre-emptive apology)

We are in a world of shit.

>>348
Good luck!
Although even though you want to practice Japanese with her, she'll probably be more eager to practice English!
So maybe you guys could try and balance it out. Such as, she'll only speak in English, and you only reply in Japanese.:3

>>350
It's 348's parents' friend so maybe she's old. I doubt she's so eager to learn English maybe?
Old dog never learns a new trick kind of thing. If she's not a typical type of elderly and
she is keen on learning a new thing such as language acquring, then it's a different story.
And, long time no see. I hope you enjoyed summer.

>>277
anytime

I don't speak English Well.

So what?

Chicken Butt.

>>353
well the nice thing about an online forum is that you can take as much time as you need to proofread before clicking post.

>>356
Ummm....I don't understund.

Sorry. My English is Middle school level. I leave a forum..

>>347
Thanks for the video, it was interesting because his German accent is very good.

I had a lanch at the Indian restaurant today.
They served as much Nan as you like for free there but just the second Nan made me rally full up.
Curry was extremely wonderful though.

I'm too sexy.

I want to improve writing skills.
what should i do?
Im freshman so i have lots time to study.

>>351
You may be right.
But eagerness is most important factor, I believe.
There are a lot of young people who failed to acquire English speaking ability here in Japan.

>>362
Drink tonsuru or write "tonsuru" 5000 times per day.

The young freshman even doesn't know what to do to improve his English skills.
An old man have knowledge and eagerness.

>>365
I write daily in English every day.
but there is no symptom that my English is gradually improving.
Do you understand my poor English?
Im sorry.

>>366
You can't improve drastically any skills of English, writing, listening,
reading and speaking. You need to make steady efforts every day. Even if one step
is very small, small steps add up to a leap.

Do you keep a diary in English or you post in an English forum?

keira's journal's gone, love don't live here anymore.

>>367
yes,i do.
thanks.
Its very difficult for me to translate Japanese into English.
but i'll do my best.

A host of notion of the spiritual shade appearing in front of us mean itself anti affair and determine a position which can be physical and mental.

Oh, I see. Yes, if she's old, maybe she's expecting more of a tour.
Yes, long time no see. I'm like a phantom, coming in and out of these threads, huh?
My Summer was nice and lazy. How about you? Maybe you work so you didn't really have a summer?

>>368
Yes, it's gone, sorry.My japanese hasn't improved much at all since I switched to an English minor.
But my English vocabulary and grammar is improving at least, so maybe that will help you guys.

>>369
Yes, keep practicing! Eventually, all the hours of practice will just melt away; like learning an instrument.

September has begun!
but there's nothing special about it. It's another ordinary day... September the 1st is
the day when Tokyo Great earthquake happened and designated as natural disaster awareness day.

September 22nd is the first day of Autumn.
And a good time to listen to the song "September" by Earth Wind & Fire. :D

Keira ditched me. I asked her out and she said no, then she refused to be here.
I said why, because there's nothing to worry about even if she's here to stay, but she
seemed to think she would keep me enchanted if she was. She was the type of person who's
worried about that thing. But she didn't know that was more painful to me than keeping here.
And finally we met again. What should I do? Can I talk to her and ask her out again like
I did months ago? We have a lot in common. We are mentally very close to each other.
She know that. Do you think we can start over?

I didn't dream of meeting her here again like this. It's so dramatic.
A boy and a girl who fell in love once and out of love after that meet again
and get in a relationship like this. I would say that's a miracle.

I believe such couples tend to end up getting married - more or less.
They are meant for each other. If they don't get married, then it means
they will stand against the will of the God himself.

lol what? :D
I'm sorry friend, my only love is Piano. <3

I know the God tested us like how strong our bond was. But now that we've come this far,
I can say we should never be apart for a moment. It's like torture if we can't stay close again.

What happens in your mind should stay in your mind

She used to say I'm the piano she loved. She said only I was able to creat ideal sounds
she imagined, and that's why we were in love. That was really a meaningful thing for me to
decipher, but I feel I understand her perfectly now.

>>378
If we had a close bond, then why don't I know who you are, anonymous-san?:o
In any case, I can be your friend if you'd like, although I tend to fall off the face of the planet periodically.

Don't turn your back on this. We've loved each other even while we were our of relationship.

If there were a love note and the person whose name is written in the notebook
shall fall in love, I'd write your name, keira. I'll keep you infatuated with me.

Perhaps you are talking about my evil twin instead.
You're English is very good by the way. Did you spend time in the US at all?

You are in a world of shit.

>>385
Perhaps you are, but I'm not. :3
The world is only what you make of it.

>>384
The same ole Keira. You were afraid of taking one step over the line when we started our
relationship. Do you remember I said, take my hand and go at our own pace? We did well..
Let me tell you I feel sorry that I had to be apart from you back then... I regret it even now.
So please reconsider. I'm sure we can do better this time. I'll stay close to you. I promise.

Anonymous-san, I think you are wasting a lot of time. But perhaps this is how you enjoy practicing your English.
If that's how it is, then go ahead and continue your romantic endeavors, although they fall on deaf ears. I'm sure you'd charm many US girls if you came over with that mindset though, so good luck with that.

In other news, I saw Ponyo recently. :3
It was very cute, although I feel that maybe there was some sort of symbolism that I was missing. Or maybe there wasn't any symbolism at all?

I don't get it. Why do I have to practice English?
Please don't try to get off the subject..

Oh, Ponyo? I did recently. We might have met in the theater if we looked around. lol

Oh? What was your favorite part? :D

okay, I'm taking a break. The Pianist is playing on TV. :D
and I might watch Firefly on DVD later. Did Firefly ever come to japan?
Anyways, ciao for now! <3 I might be back on later.

I saw Death Note recently, btw.

That's why I came up with Love Note.

It seems a guy and a girl of this thread will be the first couple. It's good to have
a happy couple even here in a world of shit. Probably they will get rid of shit and creat
a world of love instead. I'm expecting you guys. Good luck!

You are still in a world of shit.

I believe they will change what you call a world of shit for better.
The new world should be full of love. Everyone here will be happy if we
see them going out again.

You need a higher dosage of shit to break free from the world of shit, but then you will be in a new world of shit.
There's no way out for you.

I guess Keira is really shy.

To my eyes, Keira seemed emotionally unstable when she read someone she might've been with for a while.
She seemed to try to be calm, but it seemed she couldn't. Hmm, no matter what she said, she didn't seem to
control herself. I can tell. Well, at any rate, it really is nice to see her like this. I'll be watching over
the two of them.

She is also in a world of shit as the rest of us are.

everyone listent to me please.
well...ive had sore throat recently and im suffering from coughing.
i might have contracted new type of flu...

Back from watching the Pianist. I couldn't watch the whole thing, but I love it when he plays Chopin's Ballade #1. <3
Wow, so many assumptions about me.Well, you can believe what you will; That's your prerogative.
Although I came here for light-hearted chat and would prefer to do that.

>>392
Oh? I saw it recently too. I think I prefer the manga though.

>>400
new type? Sounds like an average cold to me.What makes you think it's different?
Take care of yourself and sleep away your sickness!

>>374 is just a troll and having fun making people feel annooyed, I'd say.

Indeed.

>>401
We call the swine flu, the new type flu over here.
It's spreading quite widely and some rather weak people
got killed.
It's a global pandemic, but
I wonder if it is at all news in the US?

>>401
Hi, honey. Apparently, everyone here thinks we should be involved. And I agree with them.
Let's have a chat like we did in the past and hoster mutual understanding, and hopefully develop into
more than that. I missed you so much and I'm sure you missed me too. Open your mind and restart our relationship.
We can do that. We are destained to be together. We should never be apart.

Oh? You saw it too? I knew it. We share the same taste for many things.
It's natural.

Keira is mine. Not yours. Sorry about that.

Just say no to drugs.

Keira....
It's been a long long time....

>>350 thanks keira-san. that is a good idea.
>>351 well she has known us since the 80s, and she speaks English well.
She writes to me in English and I really love to hear from her.
I must brush up on my Japanese and start attending the intermediate
classes by the time she arrives.
It was a very busy summer with no rest. I have to work hard to get
into this project this week but I also do need
a holiday by the beach.
I had no holidays for the past two-three years.

I don't understand the complicated situation they are in.
Only thing I see is a guy loves Keira so much.
I've never seen such a romantic post in the world of shit, 2chan world.
It's great!
Far beyond imagination for the Japanese, who love the world of shit.

I am so touched :)

by what?

Tell me your Slim Shady story.
Here's mine.

I peed when I was taking a shower because Slim Shady in me whispered to me.
I peed thinking to myself "FREEDOM!" I don't know freedom from what but
you know what I mean. Maybe freedom from a trivial rule, conventional idea...

>>392
>I saw Death Note recently, btw.
I'm reading the first volume of the manga right now, and also watch the show in parallel.
Good stuff, I just ordered the other 12 volumes.

>>414
What is your justice?

>>415
Uh, I'm not sure about that myself...

When I watched Death Note (anime) I was struck by the soundtrack.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qz11BFTgZU&feature=channel_page

awesome drummer woman!

jpop is so amazing, you can listen to any music from Kat-tun to Maximum
the Hormone, From Crazy Ken Band to Mamalaid Rag to Tokyo No1 Soulset.

Would you believe me, I find everything I like in Japanese music. Could
it be the quality of music, what is it...

Every Japanese musicians are more or less influenced by Noriaki, so no wonder
Japanese music is amazing.

You really seem to love Noriaki. What is h elik ein real life, what is is
his philosophy?

Not only me but some people in this thread seem to like Noriaki. I haven't met him in person
so I don't know what he's like in real life. >>420

Noriaki is kind of like his avatar. In real life, he dropped out of university. He lived a life
of hikikomori for a while and after an audition he made his debut as Noriaki, which I think his real
first name.

I've had no girl friends in my life
I'm a nerd
I'm light-headed
Laugh at me!

a real full-time hikikomori, like in "Welcome to the NHK" eh. I could not find him on wikipedia, because i do not know his surname.
are there any interviews you would recommend?

>>422 not having a girlfriend should not be so important, unless
it is important to you.

Drinking too much coffee is quite dangerous.
I had eight cups yesterday and it felt like my head was spinning round and round.
In fact, I think I scattered the insides of my skull all over the place, although I didn't mean to.
They just swirled up and gushed out for no particular reason. I hope it's not happening today.

We are in a world of shit.

keira and I will ba happy together. Don't you think so?

>>419
Don't make that up. I haven't seen a guy called Noriaki even once and will never.
But the phrase Noriaki is da fake or shit or whatever remains in my head.

>>427
We are supporting you two.

2chan is one of the world's largest forum site.
The reason of its huge popularity is quite simple.
It's a world of full of shit.
However, the whole shit is not totally shit.
It contains nutrition and golden wisdom. We also appreciate them.

I want to know about Aiko Kitahara.
SOMEONE,Please tell me!

I am a stink. What I do?

I've put on weight recently.
I must refrain from eating out and get a lot of exercise.
I was saddened when I found how much fat I took in my abdomen!
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>431
Jog in your neighborhood at night.

Re: Noriaki's philosophy... is he a supporter of a certain lifestyle, attitude,
does he have something interesting to say, what are his lyrics about?

>>433
Nobody suffer if that is effective.

>>435
It's effective. It's just that not many people have will power to jog on daily basis.
The mechanism of losing weight is simple. All you have to do is burn calories.
If your eating habit is the same and you burn more calories than before by jogging or any other exercise, you lose weight.
Simple as that.

Hi everyone...I want to ask an opinion of the people here. I don't know why I chose this crowd, but people here
hold a place in my heart I guess. I'm a Canadian currently living in Finland for a year on an exchange program,
I'm expected to go to school even though I already graduated and I'm expected to learn the language. But Finnish
is hard as hell.

What I really want to do with this year is work on my Japanese and computer programming skills since those are my
two loves in life. Sometimes I skip school to go practice kanji at the library...no one has said anything yet. I
just feel guilty doing it. I'm also suppose to be attending Finnish lessons which just started this week but I
purposely forgot my admittance papers for the class at home so I couldn't attend. Another issue is when I left home
I told my boss I could work for him over here, since my job only requires the internet.
However, I've found my passion for writing CSS templates all day fading...and I haven't done anything for him yet.

I just don't know what to do. How many classes should I skip per week so no one comments on it but it still
gives me enough time to work on my true passions? I do not need the grades here. It is useless work and pointless.
I've been through highschool and graduated with top marks, I do not need to do it again when my time can be spent
perfecting skills that I will use in university.
What do I do about the other kids here? Should I stay fairly distant so I don't get too attached to them? I am
fairly used to being alone, so this is not a big issue. What about my boss? Do I just do a few hours of work each week?
Or do I tell him that my commitments over here haven't left me with enough time to work for him?

Argh. If anyone needs more info on the situation just ask, I'll be checking regularly.

>>437
Solution to your problem is quite simple.
Sleep fewer hours and allocate some time for all the things you mentioned.
including attending the classes and learning Finnish.
Seems you don't realize how lucky you are to be in the situation you are
currently in. You don't even seem to need to worry about money.
Get done with what you are required to do in Finland as quickly as
possible to leave as much time as possible for the things you really
want to do.
In other words, spend time wisely, then you'll be alright.

>>437
What boss you mentioned?
Does he force you to be in Finland?
What made you go to Finland?

>>437
OK. This is my opinion.
Your top priority now is to get accustomed to Finnish culture, its language
and people there. As for learning Japanese, you're young so don't rush. I understand your passion for
learning Japanese but it shouldn't be top of your to do list during your stay in Finland.

I understand you are OK being alone but skipping classes or not trying to mingle with students
there doesn't sound good. You represent Canada in a way and you shouldn't
degrade Canada's reputation. For students there, you could be Canada itself,
a door to Canada. If you keep away from Finnish students, they might think you're not even trying to get
along with them. It's no problem if they think you prefer to be alone, but I think at least you show
you're trying to mingle and get along with them. Don't let them have
the wrong idea that you reject and hate Finland and its people.

I think working for your boss in Canada during your stay in Finland
is at the bottom of your list. I understand you feel guilty about your
sort of like breaking a promise but you can tell him you have a lot of things
to do and have no time to live up to his expectation. You can say to him you're
too exhausted every day because of your new environment. He'll understand your
situation. Don't feel guilty about it.

Before you went there, I guess you were excited about your new environment to some extent, right?
I guess you applied for the exchange program and you are the one who were
selected to go there. Maybe now you're faced with the reality that living there
is less exciting than you first thought and maybe you even think that living there for a year is pointless.
Even if that's the case, I don't blame you for that.
That kind of thing happens but I still think you should at least try to enjoy your
new environment, which is living there as an exchange student.

Giving Finnish students good reasons for them to have the wrong idea that
you aren't making efforts to adapt yourself to Finland by skipping classes is the
worst move for you.

If you want to hone your computer skills and study Japanese, you should
spend some time for them at your apartment/dorm, not at school.
Sorry if I sound judgemental in some parts or anything.

>>439
Did your company choose you as exchange student to Finland and you were given no choice else ?

>>437 is still 18 or 19 years old.
The "boss" in his post is probably is a boss in his part time job which
he was doing in Canada.

We are in a world of shit.

>>437
>If anyone needs more info on the situation just ask, I'll be checking regularly.

Do you like eroge? Which one if you do?

Are you trying to make worse this already shitty world?

Keira and I are in a whole new world of love.

Alright foo's. Update me on anything absolutely fascinating happening
in Nippon right now. I'll respond with enthusiasm and hopefully we can get
a good discussion going here.

>>449
Absolutely fascinating happening in Japan right now is
obviously the change of government.
I'm sure DPJ will turn Japan into a better place.
Bye-bye LDP, bye-bye Aso, yeah!!

We'll be part of China pretty soon, bye-bye USA. Yay!!

see ya later

>>437 again.

>>439
>>442

My boss is not related to me going to Finland at all. As >>443 pointed out I am only 18
and my job in Canada was a part-time one doing web development work.

>>438
>>440
>>441

Thank you for opening my eyes a bit more...I read these posts before I went to school this
morning and I'm happy to say I stayed in all my classes. I didn't have time to comment on them
early otherwise I would of missed the bus ^^;

I think I was scared of the pressure of becoming fluent in Finnish...I now realize the goal
isn't fluency but just communication. It is ridiculous to expect fluency in one year anyway,
it is possible but very few people can do it.

I've decided to reduce time working for my boss to a minimum (2 and a half hours/week) so I
can still keep a good standing (he isn't expecting much) but stay focused on what I need to
do over here.

>>445

I have no problems with eroge but I don't know if they would work on linux very well...
I've never actually played any but right now I am watching "ef A tale of memories" which is
based on an eroge game.

Could you recommend some that will work with WINE in linux?

I have a question for you veterans
People often say that Americans have a particular sense of distance to others
which is quite different from that Japanese have.
How exactly is it different from ours?

>>449
How's your Chinese project going?

>>453
I'm playing/reading the visual novel "Planetarian 〜小さな星の夢" right now,
it runs without problems in Wine and I can definitely recommend it. It doesn't feature
any sex scenes as far as I know, though.
I figure most VN-style eroge will work fine as long as copy protection doesn't get
in the way, since they're not that technically complex.
No idea about the 3D games.
There's also a tool called AGTH you can use to output the text from games so you
can copy&paste it into a Japanese dictionary more easily. (Wine probably has a
debug switch or so to make it do the same, but I'm too lazy to even go looking for it)

Most of Westerners and the Chinese are frank or candid, I sense.
But most of the Japanese are not, I would say.
Naturally, we need some places to be frank or candid like this 2chan website.
And we are apt to be too candid, or shitty.

Welcome to our world of shit, 2chan.
Let me tell you my candid story sometime soon.

An earthquake hit my town right now.

I didn't sense the earthquake until a chest of drawer fell down on me.

>>449
The new type of flu is rampant in Japan. So far, famous athletes, singers,
comedians are infected with it. Yama-P and Nishikido got infected are infected.
Even some people died of it.
According to news reports, at some school, kids don't have to go to school
because that increases the risk of being infected.

>>453
Enjoy your stay there.

>>460 Oh no! I thought Yamapi was some sort of god. How come he got infected.
He has those fangirls all over him I guess..

>>461
It's reported that his temperature has gotten down to normal level but
it's not decided when he'll start working.

I'll creat a better world that's full of love.
You can count on me, guys. You will be saved from this world of shit.

keira and keila are two different persons.
The former speaks English, the latter speaks Engrish.

>> They should let Ikuta Toma look after him and he would get better in no time.

http://www.cartoonleap.com/2009/09/02/peko-chan-dolls-stolen-by-yakuza/

This shows that being a Yakuza isn't lucrative business at all.
All a tiny portion of Yakuza are wealty.

>>466 maybe they should get into the Rakuga business.

I wonder how many foreginers are lurking here. I'm Japanese by the way.

I wonder how many Japanese people realize that saying "lol" too much doesn't
make you sound like a native speaker. It makes you look retarded and
childish, like the people who spam "wwww" all the time in Japanese.

Just putting it out there, since I've been talking to random Japanese
people lately on skype and MSN and they love using "u", "r" and "lol"
in place of actual English.

"u", "r" and "lol"

Oh yeah and I forgot to mention, on a lot of forums if you wanna be
really meta you say that stuff while trolling people who get annoyed by
it but that's some pretty meta shit like "lol ur so bad at dota" etc.

Cool story

>>469
It's like some macho white guy wearing a tattoo saying '台所' on his arm.
They don't know any shit.

>>469
They think using u r and lol looks like a native English speaker.

Speaking English like native speakers of English has nothing
to do with being cool.
Because there are a bunch of uncool native speakers of English out there.

I think it's like using "ne" and "desu" a lot.
People who use ne and desu want to look cool.

>>476
I agree with you.
It's totally a misconception, and I would also add "desho?" to them.
Those things can be really annoying, and make the speaker look dumb.

trolls trolling trolls trolling trolls trolling trolls...

Sounds like pyramid finance scheme.

Is there any possibility for universities to be closed
due to the new type flu in Japan?
Or is it just elementary schools?

>>480
It depends on University...

>>480
That can be possible. Actually, some universities were temporarily closed
in spring this year because of the flue.

SORRY

I AM THINKING とかHE IS THINKINGってつかう??

日本ではダメって先生に言われたような気がするけど、、、

could someone please update me on the Kame & Kyon marriage,
translated 2chan rumours say they have secretly gotten married,
went to Okinawa etc. I hope so!

Speaking of Okinawa, does anyone remember golgolmois?

>>484
The couple resembles me of Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher.

I doubt any single person knows more than information gathered in 2chan.
I'm not saying 2ch is the most reliable source of information, though.
Do some Johnney's boys fans translate 2chan's relavant threads into English
for fans overseas to keep updated on what's happening to Johnney's boys?

If Kamenashi and Kyonkyon are infected with the new type of flu at the same time,
that can be a proof that they spend some time together.

I searched with search keyword "亀梨" in Twitter but nobody was talking
about his marriage at least for the past 10 days.

>>486 yes Demi and Ashton are so cool!

no, i translate it with Google Translation and the meaning gets lost
in the process. I try to understand the situation from the context
rather than the literary meaning of words, that is why i am not sure
of what is going on.

what i don't understand is the hate messages directed at both,
more so to the younger man. people are trying so hard to defame him,
they are bordering on the fanatic. They say he got drunk and shouted
at staff and assaulted a taxi driver... They say he is a product of
plastic surgery, a high school drop out, low in popularity in drama
ratings etc etc, which may be true, but they never comment on his hard
work. Same for Kyon, calling her abusive names referring to her age.

it seems it is a taboo to have a younger man as a husband in Japan.

>>487 thanks very much for your effort.

>>488
It's not a taboo at all for a young man to get married with an older woman in Japan.
I'd say it's 20 years or so age gap between the two that gets people's attention and
some may raise their eyebrows.

It's their decision whether they'll get married or not (I'm not sure if they're
still seeing, though.) but it's not easy for the boys in Johnney's agency
to get married in general. They sell fantasy and dream to fan girls but once they get married,
it's not easy for them to sell fantasy because they are fan girl's boyfriend in their fantasy.

Even if Kamenashi's prospective wife was younger than him, it wouldn't be easy for him to get married with her soon.
Johnney's agency invested lots of money for the boys to get famous and
they are obligated to recoup its investment in them.

>>484
That rumor has been hanging around for quite some time,
but a lay person like me have know idea if that's a true info.
or Jonny's has spread it for promoting some new TV drama or movie...
But then, we say that 'There is no smoke if there is no fire', so
the rumor may be true.
As someone mentioned, it is not bad or anything for an older woman to
marry a younger man, however, it seems that when they get older,
the situation becomes difficult and a lot of them get divorced
at least in the entertainment industry.
Being a huge fan of Kame, I hope the rumor is false.
Just so you know, Kame used to belong to the little league, and went
to the final match but lost against Mexico although it was a very
close game.

>>488
Referring to having a younger man as a husband.
It's very common in Japan.
Beautiful older women are admired among young men.

Come to Japan, when you get older.
I'm looking forward the day even though I'm probably older than you.

And don't you know Japan is a world of shit(envy or jealous)?

Every time you post the favorate phrase of yours, I'll paste your face with my shit.

Don't forget to lick and taste it.
You might find a new world.

I need some more coffee.

>>486
Keira and I are the best couple the world has ever seen in the history.
We'll creat a lovely world. So please support us.

>>493
What are you saying? Do you honestly believe Japan is a world of shit?
Shut your filthy mouth up. We are all in a world of shit. Of course, that includes Japan,
but not only Japan. Don't get cocky. Get it?

I do mean 嫉妬, not shit. Mostly Japanese who read kanji character would understand that.

>>497
Your post isn't funny at all.

Please creat a world of coffee for me.

>>499
Your post is kind of funny for some people who understnad you were just
playing with words, shit and 嫉妬.

>497
Dream on. You should post a funny post instead of posting an annoying one
to get attentions of a particular poster.

>>501
Emigrate to Brazil and you'll be happy.

>>497
I hope you two will be happy. But don't show us how very infatuated keira is with you.
I'll be jealous.

>>501
I'd recommend you go to Kowakien in Hakone.
They have various types of baths including 'coffee bath', i.e.
if take a bath in coffee, and I'm not kidding.
If I remember correctly, they also have 'wine bath.'
Check it out, if you are interested!

Don't creat a world of tonsuru please.

Coffee or tonsuru, that's the problem.

>>497=504
Are you happy with pretending to be different persons?

>>505
No thanks, all I care for is coffee to drink. It's meaningless to get in coffee.

>>509
If you take a bath of tonsuru, you'll get amazingly smelly.
Just try it. I wouldn't, though.

>>509
I've never tried, but I'd assume, you could also drink the coffee
you are soked in.
It's like killing 2 birds with 1 stone, isn't it?

But I wonder how popular tonsuru is among girls all over the world? lol

>>511
Oh, forget about it. I don't want to drink something contaminated with my own scurf,
even if it's coffee. I'd choose tonsuru instead if you asked me.

>>512
It would be popular if the tonsuru is made from Kame-chan's shit.

Coffee works pretty good.

>>514
Well, I don't know. Of course, he takes poop but his fans are that crazy? lol
Plus, tonsuru is made by koreans, so it's too much to ask for a Japanese to creat tonsuru.

Among all the Johney's talents, I believe the only group that's popular between asian girls (not only Japanese)
is Arashi. The others aren't popular at all except among Japanese girls. Say, SMAP often appears on the Japanese TV shows,
but they are not known in the world. Kamenashi? He isn't popular at all.

I'd like to take a coffee bath in Hakone. That'd creat a would of coffee, I'd be in heaven!!!
Thank you.

>>518
I said no thanks. Why are you trying to speak for me?

There are so many coffee lovers in this thread, I am happy!

A great idea just came to me.
How about selling Arashi-mark tonsuru in asian countries.
What's more, nobody could find the product is fake or true.

Hey, anyone know where I can take a coca-cola bath?
That would make my day:3

Coke bath is in Charlie and a Coke factory.

If I need to drink some tonsuru to survive, I would prefer a bottle of tonsuru made from lovely women's shit here, not that made from a dirty oyaji like me.

>>493
What are you saying? Do you honestly believe Japan is a world of shit?
Shut your filthy mouth up. We are all in a world of shit. Of course, that includes Japan,
but not only Japan. Don't get cocky. Get it?

>>522
It should be possible in your own bathtub.
Why don't you buy a dozen or so large bottles of coke at
COSTCO or something, and dump them all in your bathtub.
As a matter of fact, coke bath sounds better when it's cold.

I'd prefer Pepsi, but it'll be pretty costly to fill the entire bathtub with Pepsi. What should I do?

>>525
I got it well and that you are proud of yourself being shitty.

>>527
No worries.
You'll drink all of it anyways after taking a bath.
You can enjoy it twice, so it's even cheaper than just drinking Pepsi.

>>529
But, isn't drinking all of it a bit hazardous to health, or is it really possible?

>>529
You must be Japanese. It's a kind of Japanese joke.

>>531
Which part makes it a Japanese joke?

We are in a world of shit.

>>532
I'm Japanese too and I say that kind of jokes in everyday life.
I prefer Japanese jokes rather than American jokes.
American jokes aren't funny at all for me.

Sorry about that.

>>534
What do you think about the da-jokes that
Dave Specter makes?
Do you think they are funny?

What's da-jokes? kind of American jokes?

>>535
I think his jokes are funny because he is 青い目の外人.

They are not funny if he is an ordinary Japanese-Oyaji.
Needs More sophistication.

I need a lot more coffee.

You use the word coffee as a rest, don't you?
I also enjoy 2chan as a good change of pace while my hard work.

>>536
Those are Dajare, or probablly something similar
to puns in English.
They exploit the nature of the Japanese language which has
a lot of homonyms.

>>539
What kind of hard work do you do?
Surgical operations?

>>539
Yes, I love coffee. Do you like coffee?

>>541
I'm not a doctor, at least.

>>542
No, I drink coffee, I take tea my dear.
I like my thin toast done on one side.
I'm an Englishman in NY.

>544
X I drink
O I don't drink

>>542
Yes.
I really need a coffee break from this stressful life.

>>546
Now that the government is changing,
Japan can expect a rosy future.
No more LDP dictatorship!

>>547
We can't count on the DPJ so much.
Our government is dominated by bureaucrats, not by legislators.

Guys, let's have a coffee party!
What is your favorite aroma? I like French Roast and Mocha.

>>549
I've wondered what's the difference between French Roast and Mocha?
I know Blue Mountain aciduous than others.

>>548
I know.
But the LDP has been in power for too long, and the diet members
where just money-mongers.
Members of the DPJ look much cleaner, at least at the moment.

>>550
To be honest with you, I don't know. I like Turkish coffee, too. Very strong and has ginger in it.
Blue Mountain makes my stomach upset. :(

>>552
Coffee plus ginger? Never heard of it!
I know tea plus ginger or warmed red wine with ginger for winter,
the latter especially for Christmas.

Do you put sugar and milk to Turkish coffee?

>>551
To tell you the truth, I'm one of bureaucrats(the non-elite).
They don't look cleaner in the eyes of me.

>>554
Aren't you supposed be very busy right now if you are a national public servant
because the government is changing?

Well, how about Nagatsuma-san and Haraguchi-san?
They look like white knights to me.

>>553
Well, technically it's cardamom but it's like ginger.
That sometimes makes your tongue numb, it's that strong. So I put a little bit of sugar.
I'll go get some coffee now!

>>555
Bureaucrats are much cleverer than legislators in Japan.
That's why they rule the Japanese government.
I don't think the DPJ members are cleverer than the LDP members.

The changing of government has nothing to do with my busyness.
I'm busy because I have to study English in my free time.
I'm planning to change my job.
Not for changing government, ha-ha.

Hm...
I was listening to this moe Pokemon song and I'm a bit confused by something.

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm991600

Meowth says "おいらもピカチュウみたいに たとえば その・・・ 「かわいい」なんて いわれてもそれほど 困らないのにニャー"

Now...I would translate this as 'I'm like Pikachu...for example...people calling me cute doesn't bother me too much.

But the comments seem to imply that Meowth is saying that he wants to be called cute, or that he isn't cute. Am I missing something?

>>557
Are you going to be an English teacher?

>>559
I'm fed up with my job, that's all.

Hey, I know Pokemon is stupid and all but that part is still bugging me. Help me out.

>>561
Sorry, I tried, but couldn't to listen to it.

>>562

You don't really need to, I typed out the line.
Is my translation wrong...? I didn't think it was but the comments on the video make me think it is.

>>563
Direct translation would be "It wouldn't give me much trouble if I was called 'cute' as is
the case for Pikachu".
Only by reading the sentence, I cannot tell whether Meowth is actually cute or not,
but I think Meowth is soliciting others to call him/her cute.

>>565

Hm...I see. Thanks.

We had a ball today.
I saw people are interested more in shit than in love.

I love coffee. <3

Wow 2 chan has been busy last night! Lots of messages..

>>490 I will start a "free Johnny's boys" campaign. They should be
allowed to have a personal life. Sounds like such an oppressive life.
i am sure all the boys must be depressed out of their wits. I cannot
imagine how hard it can be. They make you do backflips, fly in the air,
jump off the top of the Tokyo Dome, etc etc and get paid very little,
work twenty hours a day, stay on a strict diet and when you cross the line
and fall in love you are out of the agency.

>>491 I hope he pursues his dreams and settles down. Rumours say he will run a
boutique and go back to education. he needs Kyon's emotional support. I think he
has very noble aims, and with the hard work he has put into everything he does
he should be allowed to do what he wants.

>>492 Senpai, why do you want to meet me if I come to Japan?
are you from the department of gaijin activities :-D

>>568
You will be very popular among Japanese men, because you are charming.

>>569
Is she Magibon?

huh? Magibon?
I don't understand the meaning.

>>569 thank you for your compliment. i never thought
i could sound charming on the net. that is nice to hear.

wouldnt it be wonderful if humans could form friendships as easily
when they are face to face? the world would be such an interesting
and wonderful place then.

do 2chanster ever meet ? do people make lasting friendships? or is it
a taboo for the reserved people of Japan?

>>570 i read a bit about magibon and i am appalled. i am not looking for
popularity or boyfriends. i am writing here because i am following
Japanese culture and media and learning Japanese.

>>572
I really enjoy reading posts from charming ladies like you.
I'm sure it will speed up the process of my English learning.

And I have a bad news for you.
I didn't tell anybody(including my family) I'm a 2chanster.
If I did, they would look down on me.
Declaring myself 2chan-ster equals declaring myself shit, in Japan.

>>572
If I'm not wrong, there's a board in 2ch where they plan a meeting face to face,
organize a gathering so some 2channelers meet in real life.
The gathering is called "off-kai." Off comes from "Offline" meaning, not
"on" the net but real life. "Kai" means a meeting or gathering.
So "Off-kai" means an offline gathering, which isn't a virtual gathering
"on" the Internet but a real gathering to have fun.

In other boards other than the one I talked about above, some 2channelers
may exchange e-mail addys in a thread and start excange email and might meet with
each other after getting to know each other. This is not so common in 2ch
but I think that happens sometimes.

But 2chan is an annonymous board and basically this is not a place to look for a
chance to meet new people in real life.

Stop shitting around.

>>573
I didn't mean to offend you by asking that question.
Magibon has been on and off this thread and she has been
very helpful.
I didn't know she was looking for boyfriends but she seemed to be
a nice person.

>>576
Ditto.

If a Prime Minister openly admit himself being 2chan-ster, his supporing rate would dropping dramatically.

I'm gonna send him to outer space to find another race.
I'll take your brain to another dimension. I'll take your brain to another dimension. I'll take your brain to another dimension.
Pay close attention.

>>558
Meowth usually acts big but in this song, he is pouring out his heart,
which is he kind of envies Picachoo in a way.

"It woudn't hurt/It wouldn't bother me much if people call me umm.... cute like the way they call Picachoo cute."

He wants to be popular like Picachoo and treated like him.
Another thing he says in the song is, "I wouldn't mind if ummm... girls held/huggied me like
they hold Picachoo." He's definately wants to be held like Picahoo.

Be a tonsurer and you'll see a new world opening right in front of you.

>>574 I am sorry that you are unable to openly communicate.
It is too bad that 2chan is seen like that. your family is more
important, you must not upset them.

so i would be seen that way,if i mention that i am writing on 2chan
to my Japanese friends.:-(

Where else can I chat about Japanese culture in English then, without
being looked down on?

>>575 thank you for this very interesting explanation. i always
wondered how people would meet
because they could not possibly just go and meet somewhere,
because everyone is anonymous.
one to one meetings would especially be impossible for two people.

>>577 I understand, you did not offend me, don't worry.

>>583
I think there're lots of forums regarding Japan on the web.
This is one of the examples.
http://www.japan-guide.com/forum/quedisplay.html
I don't know how many Japanese are there but at least they seem to be talking about Japan.

I'm not >>574 but I agree with him. 2ch has a bad reputation for some people because
in 2ch, posters get too straightforward and sometimes abusive. 2ch boasts lots of
viewers and posters so it's sure many Japanese people read and post in 2ch, but I don't
think many people say openly they read and post and read 2ch.

On the other hand, I don't think your Japanese friends have negative image about you posting in 2ch.
Because in my case my reaction would be "you're cool." "How can you navigate in 2ch
when posts are written in Japanse?" and things like that. Only surprise would be my reaction.
In additioin, among other boards in 2ch, English board is categorized in "Academic" related boards
so I don't think you get negative reactions.

If you prefer more friendly and safer place, Mixi is the place. Mixi is an
SNS like Myspace and facebook. Some foreigners is a Mixi member.
To become a member of Mixi, you have to be invited via e-mail by one of your friends
who is already a Mixi member. There are lots of communities/groups where
you discuss and talk about anything imaginable in line with a commyunity/group's theme.

There's lots of English related communities.
In this community, you can talk only in English so the theme of the community is
similar to this thread.

After clicking the links you click on green + icon so that you can magnify the
images. They'll give you glimps on what Mixi is like.

http://www.mentoskisscam.com/

Click on the man if you're female, the woman if you're male.
I think the woman's boobs are fake. Is the man so attractive? I don't think so.
I wonder why they didn't use more attractive male acor for this promotion campaign.

>>583
I love your friendly warm posts, really.
Nice people are welcome here!

By the way,
I suppose you have negative image against shit.
But I don't.
Great people's shit are precious.
We can appreciate their opinions comments and jokes that are never made in real life.
It is difficult for Japanese to reveal their honest feeling in the real world.
That deosn't mean we are liars.
So the 2chan is not so friendly site but interesting site.

Although I want to be nice basically, always being nice would be too stressful for me.

>>586
Thank you very much for the explanation.
You are our dear 'Japanese Lady'.

>>589
I don't like the way you write English.
Sounds too bossy.

I know that.
Even when I write Japanese, many people say so in 2chan.

My first purpose for writing English here is to improve my skills of English.
The second one is to get candid opinions about me.
I'm not afraid of being criticized about my thought and the way of writing.
I want to know real me deeply and find something.

Thanks for your comment.

Many tonsurers here...

>>587
Mixi is the most dangerous. It's no different than Myspace.
It'd ruin your life. I can't remember how many people are the victims of what it says is a safe place. lol

Mixi is a laughing stock now. There are way too many phishing scams going on there.
You can't take it too seriously.

Nice people are generally scammed.
I'm glad about not being so nice.

I want to be nice though.

Don't you dare! Mixi is an ideal place for users of the Internet.
Those who don't understand it and defy the value of such a place are the things to laugh about.
2ch is at the center of the world of shit, while Mixi is at the center of love.
Why don't you get out of it?

If 2ch is shitty, Mixi is 2 times shittier. Mix-shit, that's what the name Mixi comes from, isn't it?

I can't take it. I was wrong in thinking that 2chers could understand they were in a world of shit
and they should move to Mixi instead, where they could enjoy nice and warming conversations unlike here.
You are scams. You bastards! I'll go. I don't want to smell of shit!!

I want some more coffee.

>>598
Farewell, a lover of mix shit.

I appreciate the mix of shit and love.
You can't separate them in any worlds.

>>601
Shut your filthy mouth up! You only smell of shit.

Coffee makes me feel alive. Is that bad?

The colour of coffee reminds me of shit. That's all.

Those who live in a world of shit smell of shit, that's why you are all shitty. lol

>>604
You love coffee your own way. I love coffee, too.<3

SHIT SHIT SHIT! STOP PRETENDING TO RESPOND TO YOUR OWN POST!
YOU SHITTY COFFEE MAN!!

>>602
I don't shut my mouth.
We are just playing shitty. Is that bad?
The 2chan without shit is BEEF BALL without beef.

We used to have 'coffee gum' and it tasted really good.
I wonder what happend to it?

Coffee without coffee is plain water. That's bad.:<

American coffee is like making love on a boat.



Fucking close to water!

Mixi is the best place to chat with people in. People in Mixi are generally nice and compared to them
you guys are really miserable. I say to the people with a good sense of justice, let's move to Mixi and
have fun talking there. This place is quite shitty.

>>612
You go alone.
We are happy here.

It's time for coffee. Let's talk about coffee later!

It's time for you to change.
Read my lips.

>>612
Yes, let's. I heard people creat a lot of communities there and you can join in any community you like.
Is that right? I'm really interested in Mixi! Thank you for telling us.

>>613
Good bye.

Tell us more about Mixi.
Will Mixi take place of 2ch? How many people use it?
How good and nice are people there?

>>617
You need to be invited by someone who is already a member there.
In other words, you are not entirely anonymous like here.

I wonder the guys who hate shit are seriously angry.
If so, they are uncool and childish.

And 2chan is much more popular than Mixi.

There is no accounting for tastes.
I prefer 2chan and don't want change 2chan to a world of love.

I believe in the power of love that would repel that of shit.

Yes 2chan is number one!

>>620
You know, love and hate is back to back.
Your love for Mixi can be turned into hate pretty quickly.

>>618
To sum up, Mixi is far better than 2ch, right?
That's why Mixi is full of love? I'm curius.

>>622
Seriously, I don't think Mixi is that popular.
This thread used to be a much better place with people like
k-tan, イギリス人, school girl and so on.

I believe Mixi is an ideal place for the Internet users.
There are too many reasons to write here. Why don't you guys join Mixi?

I'm really interested in Mixi, if you don't mind me saying so.

>>626
So am I. I want to learn more about Mixi. Share your information about it please.

Then, you had better name the next thread [Chat about love in English].
I thought I could speak anything at least in English here.
Was I wrong?

Do you think Mixi will change the direction of the Japanese Internet future?
Is 2ch supposed to fade away? Mixi will be the winner?

>>628
I have no idea what you meant by that, but yeah probably. Anything about love will be fine.

What I learned today is that Mixi is kind of revolutional. We might be seeing the advent of a new era.

>>629
Mixi has been around for quite some time, but
it hasn't expanded much.
I don't see any reason why they will not remain as they are now.

Really depends on if they have a good bunch of coffee threads on Mixi, I think,
because some people feel they rather die than live in misery, but then again, they could creat a new community
there if they wanted to, so we shouldn't jump to a hasty conclusion about it.

People need a place to go potty.
You can't poo in front of the public.
I think that's the reason why 2chan is so popular in Japan.
There are many places to have good conversations.
You can easily find one of them.

>>633
Coffee is usually for drinking, not for talking about.

Mixi is popular among girls all over the world. lol

>>636Really?

Chikuwa-furai-kun is SOOOOOO cute!!!
Chikuwa-furai(a hollow cylinder of fried fish paste) is in the 2nd year student at junior high school and is one of the deejays
who comes on an internet radio "Skypeで知らない人・国に安価で突撃リレーラジオ417". I LOOOOVE his cute voice.
He is likely to be said kawaii from classmate guys XD

Shut the fuck up !

2chan is a part of our Japanese culture, Mixi is not.

What I know about Mixi is it's unique users are more than or nearly 10 million
so now it's bigger Internet community in Japan than 2ch. Biggest community I think.
2ch's users are aging compared to when it started, and its main users are people in their
30's and 40's while Mixi's users are younger than 2ch.

There are much less verbal abuses in Mixi than 2ch because basically you have to be
invited by one of your friends to join. If you're abusing someone and one of your friends
read your post, you lose trust. This can work as a disadvantage of Mixi because
you can't write what you really think at the bottom of you heart. Nobody
can write too harsh comment there even if the comment sounds valid, at the risk of
being judged by people in Mixi that you aren't so nice.

You have to be invited through email to join Mixi but there are a few loopholes.
You can be invited by people who you've never met in person in 2ch or other online forums.
Actually there are threads in 2ch for the purpose. Mixi doesn't permit the act but there
are no ways for them to stop the act.

A few posters above said Mixi is the dangerous place. For some, it can be dangerous because
in Mixi, users tend to be less anonymous. They write too much about themsleves in diary section
(Mixi has diary function.) and sometimes people can tell where they work, what university they go to
from entries of their diaries they write. Some Mixi users write too much personal
information on their self-introduction page, too. This kind of leak of personal information can be prevented
if you have a high sense of online security.

In general, it's said Mixi's users live happier life than core users of 2chan.
While Mixi is the place where people communicate the way they communicate with people
in real life, 2ch tends to be a place where you vent your frustration.
I prefer 2ch because when Slim Shady in you whisper to you evil things
you can't follow his voice in Mixi, if you know what I mean.

If this is coffee, please bring me some tea; but if this is tea, please bring me some coffee.

Thank you very much for the explanation.

I can't because of my poor English ability.

I want know myself through 2chan, nameless people's world.

messages are cute.

>>641
>>646

are these 2ch mascots, they are very, very cute! could this cat
please make me green tea, in the traditional Japanese way, thank you.

btw today i ate natto for breakfast. I bought it from a Korean food
shop.

the last natto I bought stayed in the fridge a bit too long so I
had to throw it away. But this time I got it right. I defrosted it thoroughly.
Before eating I stirred it really fast with chopsticks. The beans become strangely
frothy. Then I added the contents of two sachets that came with it. I could
recognise that one was mustard. I stirred it a bit more. I could not believe how tasty it was! I should
have made some miso soup with it perhaps. Now i have two more packs in
the freezer. Iwill defrost one in the fridge overnight.

Natto is a healthy food and rich in nutrition and it gives you energy.
Soy beans are called beef grown in the field, meaning it gives you as much energy
as beef. But soy beans don't include fat so it's healthy.
Korean people sell things Japanese including food as if they were Korean
thing. That's what I don't like about Korea.

>>666 well thatis a good message number!

The Korean shop has a Japanese food corner, and anything that comes from Japan,
is labelled as Japanese. If they did not sell it there is nowhere else I could
get it from. unless I order it online from the Japan Centre in London. (and
that is more expensive)

BTW I also bought frozen takoyaki. My japanese is very basic, I am guessing it
is telling me to microwave it. I watched on youtube how takoyaki is made. I have
okonomiyaki sauce and bonito flakes to put on it. My first taset of takoyaki!!!

"taste", sorry.

>>666 must be advent of Satan.

when natto was not popular, it's not korean.
when natto is starting to be popular and famous, it becomes
korean.

>>667
So you like natto! Congrats!
As you know, not many westerner like it, and I don't even care for it so
much either.
People from the western part of Japan are not so used to eating it, and I am
one of them.
BUT, takoyaki is a different story!
Every household in the west has a Takoyaki-pan (one with some dents) and
it's usually a father's job to entertain the skill of flipping takoyakis.
(It's kind of like a father grilling beaf when they having an outdoor
BBQ party in the US).
Oh, and in addition to what you mentioned, it is desirable to have
green seaweed powder and red pickled ginger when you making takoyaki
to perfect the art!

>>670 they sell it as Japanese food, I know it is Japanese food, label says it was made
in Japan, so no need to worry.

>>667
Finely chopped or ground seaweed on top of Takoyaki is must but if it's not
available, you have to settle for eating Takoyaki without it.
Enjoy your first Takoyaki experience.

Some people like mayonnaise on top of Takoyaki.

http://naturalism.blog.eonet.jp/shizenjin/images/2008/10/02/img_2394800.jpg

>>671 they reccommend it with mayonnaise on youtube, however the combination
of the two sauces was excellent already. However I have Kewpie mayonnaise (
although less expensive, I can not eat British mayo) I felt much energised afterwards.
Takoyaki and okonomiyaki has essentially similar ingredients haven't they?

>>673 Thank you. Would chopped Nori be all right? I have some
Nori left from when I was trying to make umeboshi onigiri. The first
try was utterly delicious, second time round there was too much salt
water and it did not stick well.

>>675
Do you mean mayonnaise for natto?
Nah......that's only for mayolers (=mayonnaise lovers).
People usually put very finely chopped Asian onion, not the round one
but the long-stick like shaped one, and/or raw egg.

And as you mentioned, if you put natto in soup with lots of ingredients in it,
with also Korean Kimchi in it, it will make very good Krean soup.

Regarding chopped nori, if you are talking about Takoyaki and okonomiyaki, Aonori
(green, powdered nori) is the one to use, because it has different flavor
from regular black nori.
And you are right, okonomiyaki and takoyaki has almost the same
ingredients!
Enjoy!

>>675
Green seaweed and oridinary Nori is different in color, flavor and taste
but if you want to use chopped ordinary Nori nobody can stop you.

Ah, the first post of this made me laugh.

>>678
Are you new here?
Do you fit in some of the description in >>1?

No, I am a friend of Ether.

He's a university student from Florida, right?
Is he lurking in this thread? I haven't seen him around for quite a long time.

And you must be a nerd and a loser who can't remember Kanji characters and
big boobs fan.

I think work of film director <Stanley Kubrick> is very able to listening obviously.
How do you think in this point?

>>680 ran away.

We are in a world of shit.

I'm starving. What should I eat for lunch?

you are starving and thinking what to eat for lunch?
eat whatever your eyes fell upon RIGHT AWAY!

>>686
LOL~~
yeah, I hope he will get enough nutrition in time.

nuts, eat your self.

I don't like nuts.

I'm eating gorgeous instant ramen. yam yam.

What's the name of the product?

>>691
Yokohama Rokkakuya

Don't put Rari-P on top of takoyaki. That's insane!!!

Eating octopus is already insane.
Who'd want to eat such grotesque creature?
The same goes for jelly-fish.

Octopus is popular food for its cuteness in Japan.

Octopus eats their own arms when they are extremely hungry.
Rediculous.

Do the arms grow longer again?

Octopus isn't for pet but for food.
The most important thing is its taste, It's delicious.

I like Octopus and squid.

I always eat them when I go to a sushi-go-round restaurant.

>>697
Yes, they do.

Do you like sushi-go-round restaurants?

>>700
Then, instead of capturing and killing one whole octopus, it is better to,
maybe, cut its legs halfway and let go.
This way, we will never run out of octopus and octopus will never have
to be caught and killed.
Brilliant idea, isn't it?

That is a very dangerous idea in reality.
There will be execessive octopuses in the ocean everywhere,
which means a total destruction of the ecosystem.
In addition, some of them might start attacking humans for food.
Not only will it defeat the purpose but could be a total chaos that
leads to the end of the world. Too risky.

>>702
If you cut all the arms of an octopus and release it, then it can't
catch fish and will end up dying. it also can't type the keyborad and can't surf the Net
until all arms grow. Without arms how can it tap the keyboard?

If you cut four of the arms, still, it can't catch fish. Four arms aren't enough to keep living.
Then you may think it's good if you cut only two arms.

This is where cost and effect matter comes in. You catch an octopus
and all you can get is two arms? This is rediculous. So in the end you have to kill an
octopus to eat the whole of its body.

Plus, some people like to eat its head part...So they're destined to be killed.

>>701
A few times a year. I like sushi but it cost much eating out so I eat
at home.

Drink tonsuru at home.

I like to go to sushi-go-round restaurants with my family.
As you said, it costs you more than you eat at home but
you sometimes want to enjoy eating out, don't you?

It is enjoyable to only see sushi dishes going around.

>>707
Don't stare at plates going around and around. You'll get seasick.
I once carried to a hospital because of that.

Hello 2ch, quick question...it's very important for me ^^;

If I want to say: "Did you get the last facebook message I sent?"
In Japanese to a girl, what is the best way?
I recently made a Japanese friend but I don't know enough of the language
to say something like that...keep in mind though I do know enough
that I'll be able to check if you guys are telling me the right thing =P

try to not make it sound too serious...it's been a week since I sent it but
I don't want to wait much longer.

We could tell you, but it'd be in english
since this is the english chat thread

>>710

日本語で下さい。
俺は日本語を勉強しています。
俺の日本語は悪いです。ご免なさい

I really don't like asking for help but I really don't want to act too
confident when I know I don't speak the language very well.

>>710
lol

>>709
フェイスブックでメッセージ送ったんだけど、見た？
would be one of the natural sentenses. In the Japanese sentense, "the last"
doesn't seemed to be included but it's obvious that you're talking about
the last message, so I ommited it.

Keep in mind that for average Japanese people, writing in English
isn't a piece of Sushi. The English proficiency of Japanese people in this
thread is much more than average so don't expect too much from average
Japanese English learners. Maybe just dropping a short line isn't easy for her.
Peace.

>>711
If your Japanese isn't good, a recipient of your email can recognize you
make your share of effort to write in Japanese. So don't be afraid of making
mistakes when you write to her in Japanese.

>>713

Yep, that's the point- we're both learning each others language so we're
trying to write in English and Japanese where we can. She asked me for a
whole message in English so I did...I tried to stay away from difficult
words and sentence structure without making it seem too easy.

I just wasn't quite sure how to approach this situation. I've never used
んだ before so I guess it would of helped to know that ^^;

>>714
uh.....I think this is more of an inter-cultural issue than the language issue.
You sent a message and she hasn't responded for a while, usually means
that she wants to end the relationship.
She wouldn't dare say it bluntly because that could hurt your feelings,
so she just fades away.
That's usually how relationship is ended over here.

>>715

I doubt it, she's invited me over for dinner.
I've thought about that angle but there isn't enough proof for it yet.

>>714
That happpens.
If you think first it's a good idea to learn your target language through
language exchange, once you start trying, you are faced with reality.
You recognize it's not easy to learn your target language through
exchangin email.

Maybe she needs more time to write back to you. Maybe she's lazy.

Bleh. There goes nothing. Message sent.

We'll see how this goes, if nothing happens then I just remain the same as
always, i.e, no girls to talk to at all.

You haven't gotten her reply for just a week so I'd say it's too early
to judge if she is trying fading away.

Leaning a language through relationship can be dangerous.
I've notice many non-Japanese guys who must be a macho-type in their
home countries speak Japanese like women because they listen to
and copy how their Japanese girl friend speaks.
Sounds somewhat gay.
The other way around is a bit more acceptable, I think.
Girls talking like men doesn't sound too bad.

I want to die
i wish i cluld kill myself

Me, too.

At times, I think whether there is worth for living in this ridiculous world or not.
(especially human being)

Why are you guys overreacting to Swine Flu? It's no different then the regular flu.

No, it is different from the regular flu in that nobody has immunity
to it because it's a new type flu.
Also, since it's new, there is not enough vaccine for everyone,
e.g. in Japan, only 60 million people or so can get vaccinated.

You are in a world of shit.

I have no chances of getting infected with the virus because I don't go out.

How do you get food if you don't go out?
Tenya-mon?

>>724
I am not such a guy. But I don't think so.
I suppose there is the difference between the two when we see those flu at various aspect.

>>728
these days, we can get groceries by using internet.
some grocery stores provide online service.

You know, your thigh muscles will become very weak if you don't walk,
and your bone will become very weak if you don't get enough sunshine.
I.e. you will grow old much faster than other people in your generation.
Good luck.

Please tell us about Mixi. I heard it's more popular than any other sites. Why?

Because we regard Mixi as the place where Fuckin busters gather.

Dr.G=Tobias right??

Shall we dance？

What should I write?
Hmmmm.

I just came back from a prep school.
One of the students in my classroom slept in the middle of the class
and the teacher said to the student "Wake up. why are you sleeping
right here right now?"
All of the students including me were surprised but, the teacher
has waken me up.

Good morning, son!
Don't waste your tuition!
LOL

>>675
>>676
All right, i shall look for Aonori next time.

I tested my energy levels yesterday by eating natto only for breakfast. I think i should have
had rice and miso soup to make it a proper breakfast. This morning I ate the last box of natto
but made some toast, eggs etc to follow.

has waken "us" up or gotten up our drive. Sorry

>>738
You know, some Natto-lovers here even eat "Natto toast" over here.
And one crepe shop serves rolled up crepe with Natto, coffe jelly and
whipped cream in it.
Enjoy!

I have just bought a 2 liter plastic bottle tea with a free

I always feel bad about myself deeply after masturbation.
What should I do?

you can abandon to do that anytime.

My dick responds physiologically.

I can't help masturbating.

Keep masturbating 'til you feel good or nothing about it.

I wondered what percentage of females masturbate.

Posters are almost Japanese during this time.
Masturbateres are almost Japanese too.
Shame on you!

There were a lot of masturbaters here.

Lots of tonsurers here.

Bob Dylan is not an artist, not a musician, not a folk singer,
not a rock musician..
He is a jew, who convered to Christiany and changed his name

Ok, if the x rated conversation has ended, may I tell you
about my the defrosted takoyaki adventure.

I'd defrosted a small pack of frozen takoyaki the night before.
I was going to eat it in the evening. well, I gradually developed
a fever in the afternoon so I had to come home to rest. I kept record
of my temperature, every time I woke up to rehydrate. I think in my
dreams i was discussing with the 2chan people whether or not I would
recover to eat it, would it go to waste otherwise, what condiments to
put on it etc etc. gradually the fever wore off ,
I suddenly opened my eyes and said:It is takoyaki time!
I felt much better but I still wasn't sure whether it was a good idea.
I took the takoyaki out of their packaging and put it in the microwave
. I hope it was the correct settings, it seemed to be saying,
at 500 W 3 min 10 seconds.

What if it wouldn't cook properly? When I started off the microwave,
it started making funny crackling sounds. Then *pop*, went one of the
takoyakis, but I kept microwaving while preparing a cup of genmachai.
When I took the plate out, despite the little exploded takoyaki they looked
all right. I added some okonomiyaki sauce, mayonnaise and patiently
chopped some nori to top it with. I also sprinkled bonito flakes on the top.
When it was all ready, i put my cup of green tea and takoyaki
on a plate and headed off to my room.
with a tiny tooth pick i tried to pick one ball but it fell back.
so it was only manageable with two toothpicks, because they were
soggy. This, while watching the insanely handsome Kat-tun boys do
dangerous backflips and still end up smiling.
The batter was a bit on the uncooked side. It was only when i ate
the third one I found a bit of
octopus in it. It was rather chewy-plasticky and tasted of something
else, perhaps they put some chemical preservative in it. Eventually
I finished all of it, none was wasted.
If I don't return this thread tomorrow, you know it is probably the uncooked
octopus that did it! sayanora just in case (just joking :-D)

thansk for all who read this silly account patiently.

here is a song for you :

what a classy woman.

>>762
WTF...
Kyonkyon is getting really freaking old

>>763 you wouldn't call a man her age "old" would you, you would say he is "mature", got
"character" etc, but if it is a she, she is "freaking old".

>>761
Hope you are back!
Just so you know, if some frozen food is instructed to be put in the microoven
before eating it, you don't defrost it before hand.
So if the back of the package says 'Put it in the microwave oven for 5 min.',
that's all it takes.

Anyway, I hope your fever is entirely gone by now!

>>760
I hope you are all right now.
If you make Takoyaki from scratch at home, using Takoyaki iron plate
and eat it fresh from the plate, the surface of Takoyaki is a bit crispy.
Minute by minute, all surface lose crispiness. It's impossible to ask for
crispiness of ready-made Takoyaki like you bought, I think.

Inside of Takoyaki can't be crispy so even if you thought it tasted uncooked,
maybe that's the way Takoyaki is as long as you kept Takoyaki in microwave in
enough time.

>>763
I never like the way Kyon2 speaks.
She souns/is too self-consious and pretentious.
She thinks she is an artist, or something, but actually nobody.
She cannot even sing.

so how is チルノ day going for you all?

It seems we were in a world of shit this morning.

>>768
What does チルノ mean? チルノ day? It's new to me.

I have you played 東方? チルノ is from 東方.

>>771
Is it a video game? I've never heard of　東方.
What's チルノ day?

Mr James is so cool!

I wonder why so many American women look like pig. We start new thread maybe

Sir yes sir.

I couldn't grasp what pig mean.

Did you mean simply that they are something like big, thick or fat?

Pigs make lots of noises, but fat too.

American women are never quiet. i hope they come 2chan and see how I feel

>>778
now. I got it.

Thx.

I had mistaken in anchor.

>>777-778
Thx.

I'm eating ready-made Sushi now.
Do you guys envy me?
HAHA!

Envy? no. because I'm not a human.

so, who are you?

>>765
>>766
Thanks people, I am alive, no problem with uncooked octopuses.
I believe takoyaki is a specialist food, and should not be
microwaved.
>>767 She may not be an artist, but an entertainer, and a good
one she definitely is. I watched her shows, she is a natural born
entertainer, and that requires a different form of intelligence.

>>778

I am an American man. American women are never quiet!! It is a good thing!! I dont want to be with a woman who is quiet all day. Why dont Japanese women talk? Are they afraid of something?

I'm gonna send him to outer space to find another race.

Sorry, but I can't understand you.
Too loquacious women make me tired and irritate me.
Of course, Japanese women talk very much, but not all day.
Are you afraid of silence even for a little moment ?

I'm Mino-monta.

>>788 YOU ARE LIEER.

Now I'm going to tell you one of my candid stories with 「sage」^^;

When I was a child, my father used to cook Takoyaki for me.
Although I didn't like the Takoyaki very much, I couldn't ask too much.
Becauce my family lived in poverty in mid-Showa period (1960s).

When I grown up, I learned a fact that the Takoyaki had not been real one.
My father didn't afford to buy Tako so he used Kamaboko instead.
Takoyaki without Tako is, just like, Beef Ball without Beef or 2chan without Shit.
No wonder I didn't like the Takoyaki very much then.

In fact, My father made a lot of fake Takoyaki.
But we can't blame him as long as he didn't sell them as Takoyaki.

Thank you for reading.

What a beautiful story that is.

Is it true that in Kansai, people eat takoyaki with rice as a meal, not just a snack by itself?

>>772
09-09-09 is chiruno day. happens only once.

Umm... I live in Kansai, but I haven't tried takoyaki with rice. Just for a snack.
On the other hand, I sometimes eat okonomiyaki with rice and miso soup.

>>772
Yes, it's a video game. It's very fun to play, it's pretty and it's hard.
http://www16.big.or.jp/~zun/

>>794
hi guys
I heard that. But is it usual?
That sounds just heavy,right?

>>796
It's not special at all in Kansai, I think.
It is called okonomiyaki teishoku.
But sometimes people from other regions are surprised to look at it.

Hello 2ch...It's the exchange student from a couple hundred posts back.
I've e-mailed my boss telling him that I can't do anymore work due to Finnish
laws.

I hope I can get my job back when I return, but I don't expect it.
I just hit the send button. Feels like getting on a roller coaster and knowing
somethings about to happen lol.

She looks different from she on the commercial film.

I lost interest in her as early as around her prime time.

I heard she was bitch and bad (in a word, yankeeヤンキー), the same
as sakai noriko.

kyon kyon is from atsugi, kanagawa prefecture, rural area famous for
yankee culture.

Never ever talk ill about Kyon behind her back! she's the best looking mature woman you could find ever!

>>798 here.

My boss e-mailed me back. It's a good thing I sent him one! He is okay with
the situation. I am really glad I took the step.

>>760-761
Does these English sentences seem different from native English speaker's ones?
Can anyone notice oddness in her English?
I don't have enough skill to judge other's English.

When I read her English at first, I thought the writer was
man and he was Japanese. Cos the English seemed messy and
hard to follow smoothly. (It doensn't mean I can write more proper
English either)
I don't know it was because of my limited English
skill or not. Gradually I began to doubt the wirter was japanese
because it's strange that japanese didn't know the way to defrost the frozon
foods in the microwave properly. At this point I supposed the writer
was just ignorant japanese or American? living in Japan trying
takonaki.
When I read kamenashi part, I understood all. She is an european
living in the U.K.
Anyway she is not a native speaker. I don't know my feelings were
right. Can Native speakers notice her English is not native speaker's one
right on the spot?

>>760-761
the topic of Kyon kyon happens to be related to kamenashi.
Do you know a old lady who experieced a child bearing and a divorce
is kamenashi's girlfriend?
They are approximately 20 years old apart.

Do you mean this is because we are in a world of shit?

>>805
Yes, this is the world of shit.

>>772
it's a series of video games, developed by one guy who creates all the graphics,
program code and music for it in his spare time (while also working a normal job).
My fascination with 東方 is actually one of the reasons why I'm learning Japanese.
Most of the music in those games is very good, here are some of my favorite
songs from them:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbVLGVlkWoI&fmt=18
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0joGqzbIbt4&fmt=18
I also like listening to the music while I'm not playing the games, but because I'm
studying Japanese, mostly to rearranges with vocals. Such as this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wc99DS9dSqg&fmt=18

>>803 yes but of course i told you thatin my previous messages,
but you would not believe me.
English is not my native tongue so I use the language in a
not-so-English sort of way.Nothing wrong with that!
I can see my mistakes and the odd use of English, most people do.
Yes I follow the Kame-KyonKyon rumours, they are such an interesting
couple, I hope they would stay together as a family.

Try CAVE shooting. You'll know toho is much easier and
a colliction of amateur shootings.

>>802
I think that's the right move and it's good to know that your boss
understands your situation no matter if the law really exits or not.

Keep focusing on what you have to do in Finnland. Whether you'll be able to find
a part time job when you go back to Canada isn't what you have to worry about now.

>>807
Do you know Mr.kato, the killer of akihabara stabbing spree, was a
fan of toho shooting?
Sticker or tablet?(shitajiki) of toho was on his study desk
in his home.
shitajiki must be unfamiliar with foreigners.
Shitajiki is inserted between papers of notebook so that we can write
smoothly.
I think shitajiki is japanese culture.
Am I wrong? Do americans and europeans have shitajiki culture?
When you don't use shitajiki, pen tip sink in the paper.
It feels clumsy and the trail? of words would be left in the following
papers.

http://ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/61SeU71q9nL._SS500_.jpg one example of shitajiki.
I don't have courage to use this one. I'm starting to use
shitajiki lately. It's a simple red lucid shitajiki, which was
used to make red mark dissappear in the first place.

You must have tried okonomiyaki with a bowl of rice, haven't you?

Just so you know. I thought you needed to be updated on the current world economic situation.

Or we could talk about okonomiyake?

Are all American women pigs to Japanese men? I am an American man and I like them, myself.

Aren't there any Japanese women who talk a lot?

Japan is for japanese. Get out foreiner.

hi guys
btw, do you know Sony plans to introduce 3D LCD by end of 2010.
It is totally fantastic you know.
I mean future is now finally!

In addition to 3D compatible BRAVIA LCD ,
Sony will also develop 3D compatibility into many more of its devices,
such as Blu-ray Disc products, VAIO and PS3,
to provide a multitude of ways in which 3D content from 3D movies to stereoscopic 3D games can be enjoyed in the home.

Even Doraemon is surprised haha...

I found this on a webpage. Is this about the チルノ　day？
"Today is the last day we will ever see the triple single-digit date repetition--and Apple sure is making a big deal about it"

Last day? Isn't 2010/10/10 チルノ day? 10/10/10 1 and 0 comes in turn instead of 9 and 0.

>>826
The number have to be 9?
The more I ask, the more I get confused.
I'll shut my mouth. Thank you.

>>827
her number is 9, thus 09 09 09 is her day

from http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Cirno

The date "09-09-09" (Wednesday September 9 2009 09:09:09 more specifically) has been named "Cirno day" for obvious reasons. This day everything (for some reason) could be translated into nine.
For example: September 9 is the 252th day of the year 2 + 5 + 2 = 9, you need 9 letters to type Wednesday and September and Japan's timezone is +9. Other names for this day include "The strongest day" and "�H day".

and line breaks

>>828
* Cirno is known for her childishness (read: stupidity), so the term "Cirno" is often used instead of "baka"(バカ, fool) as a pun in the Japanese Touhou community.
Apparently, even ZUN himself wasn't an exception; in the manual for Phantasmagoria of Flower View, she is labeled as "9. Moron" in an explanation of the game screen's layout...

* Due to the infamous manual screenshot, Cirno has been nicknamed "Nine-ball" or simply "�H".

>>828-829
I see. Thank you.
Even though I don't know anything about this game, I was surprised by this
fact.

>September 9 is the 252th day of the year 2 + 5 + 2 = 9, you need 9 letters to type Wednesday and September and Japan's timezone is +9.

so, is cirno day known only among touhou geeks?

Haha look at these racist nips.
Look at them.

>>831
It's just how they call it and the rarity of the day is known to some people from what
I gather, if I'm not mistaken.

>>831
more so known among the chans.
i am not a touhou geek. i have hardly played it much.

>>833-834
Thank you.

I wonder how many users visit this thread on a typical day.
I wonder how many people are accessing from overseas?

>>836
overseas here.

You can imagine those answers easily.

from cyberspace where you never know, here.

>>837
Yeah. I know you are from overseas.

I'm originally from overseas, temporarily living in Japan.

>>836
Overseas here as well.
It would be cool if the thread counted how many views it received~

I would like to listen to keira playing the piano. Will you upload something sometime?

>>843
I'm terrible at the piano. I only just started a year ago. >_>
Maybe I'll link you to someday when I'm confident.
Do you like piano, anonymous-san? :3

>>844
I don't play but like it, anything from Jazz standards to just piano riffs on Pop songs.
What tunes are you practicing now?

I can't play piano, but it is my most favorite musical instrument.
If you like piano, I recommend you songs by Chihiro Onitsuka.

I'm currently practicing a Piano duet of Paganini's Caprice 24.
here's the version on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVnm6sMLRP0

I mostly like classical and romantic period pieces. Jazz is great too, but so much harder to play!
Do you have a favorite song featuring piano?

Don't push it and you might break your finger. >Keira

If I would pick a classical piece, it'd be Chopin Nocturne No.2, which I heard is not that hard to play.
I don't think I would be able to play it but I heard so.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zONyFuanlbQ

keira and I have to be together. So people say.

>>846
Thank you, her songs are very beautiful. :)

>>848
Breaking a finger would be the worst thing!

>>849
I love that song! <3
I adore Chopin as a composer, but I think I'm still too much of an amateur.

Don't worry, keira, I'll attend you even when you hurt your fingers.
Is it because of love? I'm not sure.

>>850
But I haven't heard she cooks. Are you still confident you two can manage?
You should cook and please her instead.

Well, apparently she's already got a duet partner. It's about time to let your feelings go, perhaps..

>>850
We'll support you. Have the guts to ask her out.

I have a good idea. Why don't you sing along with keira's piano?
It'd be wonderful. You two can respect each other, can't you?
Just try it!

keira is mine.

I love coffee. <3

That's the spirit.

Everyone! Good news, I'm the guy who was asking for help to translate a message into
Japanese for my friend on facebook. Apparently she doesn't log onto facebook much and she
was very apologetic when she saw that I was wondering why it was taking quite a while. ^^;
turns out I was just being paranoid.

Glad it's all working out =)

who is Keira? is this a Japanese-Foreigner couple we are talking about?
just curious

do Japanese men cook for their significant others? just curious

Do you like coffee? just curious.

what does 'significant others' mean?
just curious

significant other, I believe is an american word that has recently
pased on to British English, meaning, girlfriend or boyfriend or partner.
It avoids the use of gender, so maybe it is a politically correct word.
>>868 i can live without it, but it would be nice to have some now.

>>870
thanx.
Significant other sounds a bit like the incredible Haulk.

>>871 Ahaha, that's sweet, thanks for making me laugh

>>870
I love coffee too.<3 It brings happiness to everyone I think.
Spending quality time over coffee with your significant other would be priceless.<3

The Takoyaki Adventurer reminded me of my old story.
Isn't the UK multi-ethnic?
It doesn't matter whether she is a native English speaker or not, to me.

It doesn't bother me at all either.
As a matter of fact, there is a concept of "world Englishes <--plural" that
claims that English is the de facto language at least for business, and
different flavors of English i.e. Englishes should be treated on an
equal footing.

What's your opinion about the Obama care? Are you for or against it and why?

>>837 >>842
Thanks for your replies.
I know you guys are from overseas.
I'm wondering if you count in annonymous posters from overseas, how many

Britain is both multi ethnic and multi national. Lots of nationalities
from all over the world gather on this island for business, education, family reasons.

Obama is losing his popularity now. Change is not always good for people.
That's all.

Correct translation for shitajiki seems to be plastic sheet?

Have you foreign guys ever heard of it?

It's pretty prevalent here in Japan.

shit skin Obama!

I wonder what will become of out pigeon-mountain.
He is trying to make changes in Japan, but will he also lose popularity
because of that?
I also wonder why him and his younger brother don't look a like at all?
Are they from differnt mother or something?

I used to think that the term 'priceless' meant 'no value' because
'price-less.'
Is it me who is mixed up or is it English that is mixed up?
Must be the latter.

>>884
That means that something is impossible to get even if you were able to pay a massive amount of money, therefore a price couldn't be put on it.

I do understand how someone would understand it as 'no value' though (as in it's worth so little that anything could be paid to get it, therefore no price is needed).

>>869
it is a politically correct way of saying lover. it also helps to solve the the lack of the english language not having a singular way of saying 'a person to another who is in a relationship with' or as we might say, "significant other".
english really needs a sexless singular to refer to another person.

Soka Gakkai lost their power in the government.

>>887
Thanx for the explanation, but I'm a bit confused.
Why is 'lover' not politically correct in the first place?
Lover can be both male and female, so if it was PC, then English doesn't need
another term i.e. significant other to refer to the same thing....
Or, am I totally missing something?

Doesn't Lover mean sex partner?
It's X-rate term, I think.

>>890
No, 'lover' in English means someone you truly love, in that sense,
it's totally different from Japanese term '愛人'.
An English term for 愛人 is mistress.

But you can say "I need a lover tonight".
It must mean one night stand.

yosh we are starting our Ki Aikido training again next week.
I will be rolling and throwing people around.
i will come home totally refreshed. no time for takoyaki,
it will be natto for me all right. need low carb for agility.
hopefully Japanese classes and Tango will also resume next month.
I will be Japanised and Argentinised suitably.

>>889
well there are many reasons.
mainly as i said before,
it also helps to solve the the lack of the english language not having a singular way of saying 'a person to another who is in a relationship with' or as we might say, "significant other".

which is more easy to say?
"a person to another who is in a relationship with"
or
"significant other".
?

this is why english needs a singular pronoun for another person, and one for a significant other.

but saying "lover" is a bit bold. deep sexual relationships are not so much talked about so openly in day to day conversations. it just seems too bold.
plus, what if they are not lovers yet? what if they are just dating? or what if they are waiting for marriage before sex? what if the couple is gay?

emphases on the dating example. dating hardly makes persons lovers, this is why my original post used "in a relationship with".

i guess i should not have thrown in the word 'lover' too, because such a bold word needed its own explanation.

so let us think of it as meaning a substitute for a singular sexless pronoun for a person whom another is in a relationship with.

what a mouth full!

>>892
yes. lover is being one whom you make love to.
may or may not be romantic love.

never thought that SO (significant other) would be a discussion topic.

how I asked before, i shall ask again:

Do Japanese men cook for their significant others?

I wonder if there's any difference between these expressions -
1) Are you not Emma Watson?
2) Aren't you Emma Watson?

I'm curious.

>>901
"aren't you" means "are you not"
same thing.

So do you think English speakers would take those questions as completely the same?
No slight differences at all?

>>903
ya same thing.

>>897
Thank you very much for your through explanation.
I didn't know sex was prerequisite for 'lovers.'
It being such a delicate word, your info. was very valuable.
Now that I know what 'significant other' really means,
I've realized that Japanese doesn't have a word for that either.
We have 恋人 and 愛人 but neither will perfectly match that term.

>>896
Yosh? Is it よし？
It sounds like you take a lot of lessons.
Are those lessons organized by one organization or school?
Just curious. Curiosity kills the cat.
In this video, it's a lion not a cat that was killed by hunters.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEIGqD80N6U
POOR LION!

You can catch and eat this octopus for Takoyaki.

Ω...

1) Are you not Emma Watson?
- I think you are Emma Watson.

2) Aren't you Emma Watson?
- You must be Emma Watson.

>>904
I see. Thanks.

>>907
Thanks. So it depends on people how to take them.

It can also be asked this way too, if you want a 'True' or 'False' answer (usually just to verify)

Are you not Emma Watson?

yes answer:
That's right.
(I am not Emma watson)

no answer:
No.
(I am Emma Watson)

This would be used in more formal situations, so don't ask a question like this to your friend unless you're mad!

>>900
I'd say some men like cooking but even now, not many men cook
when they're married. Compared to one generation ago, more and more men
try to help house chores including cooking though.

Before getting married, some men cook for a girlfriend, I think.
I think that's partly because men want to impress their girlfriend.
Once they get married, they don't have to impress their wife, much.

>>900
YES!

Men's cooking is getting very popular these days in Japan.
It is probably the influence from TV programs such as SMAPxSMAP where
SMAP (popular male entertaining group) members cook for their guests.
And also there are a lot of cook books by young (sometimes good looking) male chef.
So it is considerd even 'cool' for men to cook these days.

Plus, due to the difficult economical situation, many men also started to
take their Bento-luch to work. Surprisingly, they usually make their own Bento.

I hope this has cleared up some of your questions.
END

>>911
You're manipulated too much by media.
Men who make their own bento-luch is a just fraction. Almost none, I'd say.

I agree that some Japanese men think being able to cook is cool.
But not many of them try to start learning cooking.
Some male university students may cook for themselves to save money, though.

>>912
Are you a Japanese man from 2 generations ago or something?

There are a lot of men who cook, especially if their wife is also woking.
Cooking is not considered something you need to take time and learn.
It is just part of your life.

But if the wife is home all day, it's usually her role to cook.

Hi there.

Good morning?

It's raining here outside.

I'm off today.

Are you?

>>913
I'm not talking about two generations ago but current situation.
Even now, cooking is a wife's job even if she works.
That's why lots of working wives complain about their husband laziness.

>>914
Hey!
Is it raining?
You must be from the western part of Japan.
Yep, I'm off too.
So, I'm gonna make my coffee and some pizza toast for my breakfast.
BTW, I'm a Japanese man in the 20s.

Not many husbands in Japan do housework even if his wife works.
If they do, the amount of houswork husbands do is much smaller than wives.
And the housework husbands do is washing dishes, cleaning, taking out garbage
and things like that. NO COOKING.
Husband who cook is never common. They are exceptions.

>>916
You're single and live away from your parents. Some men in the situation
cook. Once you get married...the statistics shown in 917 tells the rest.

>>900
Have you heard a term 'herbivory-men'?
They are prevalent and they grew up being taught by their mom
how to cook.
Cooking is no big deal for them.

I cannot understand English well because I'm still a beginner of it.
I want to know what BTW means.
Would you please tell me that means?

NDR=Noriaki is da REAL

It doesn't matter. She is O.K.
I just wanted to confirm whteter my intuition was right or not.

it also helps to solve the the lack of the english language not having a singular way of saying 'a person to another who is in a relationship with' or as we might say, "significant other".
-----------------
I don't understand this part especially. Can someone explain in
more easy English or in Japanese?

I just remember one story this morning.
So let me tell you my another candid story.

When I was very young,there was a popular song titled 'Let's make love'.
As I liked the song, I sang it loudly.
Although I didn't understand English then, I was able to get the part 'let's make love'.
As a result, I sang the part so loud and clearly again and again.
Having been a virgin male, I didn't know the meaning of love exactly.

Later, I learned LET'S MAKE LOVE is equal to LET'S HAVE A SEX.
Needless to say, it made me ashamed and hoped nobody had heard my singing.

1) Are you not Emma Watson?
- I think you are Emma Watson.

Are you not Emma Watson?
yes answer:
That's right.
(I am not Emma watson)

In the second situation, the questioneer seems to think she is
not Emma Watson.

The first case: the questioneer thinks she is Emma Watson.
The second case : the questioneer thinks she is not Emma Watson.

I don't get it.

Moreover, I was taught or have belived that Yes will be followed by S V and No will be followed by S V not, just like Yes, I am and No, I am not.
"No, I am Emma Watson" sounds strange to me.
>>909 used parenthesis to indicate actual states?

"No, that's not right." "No, I am not Emma Watson."
"Yes, that's right." "Yes, I am Emma Watson."
are correct.

Too long.

cut them into three lines.

"No, that's not right." "No, I am not Emma Watson."
"Yes, that's right." "Yes, I am Emma Watson."
are correct"?"
---------------
The last part should have ended with quesiton mark.

>>916
Did you enjoy your coffee?　ILC (I love coffee), too.<3

>>932
Yes, although it was just instant coffee, I had some cups of it.
I don't know where you are from, but if you happen to live in Japan,
there is a very good instant coffe called '香味焙煎' which tates a lot
like regula dripped coffee.

It had started raining over here, too.
I think rainy or cloudy day and coffee go very well together!

>>912
I'm a middle-aged Japanese man and like to make my bento-lunch, mainly for economical reason.

Since my wife loves me, she makes gorgeous bento for me.
I appreciate her love, however, I don't like costly bento in this depression.
My salary is gradually getting lower and lower.
So I make my bento with the leftovers.
I eat my bento-lunch, hiding it, ha-ha.

>>934
Oh......you don't need to hide it!
You should be proud that you are using ingredients wisely.
I hope everyone else will follow you for our sustainable future!

well as seeing that 'Aren't' means 'are not', that makes them the same.
don't be complicating it for them.
'don't' btw means 'do not'.
no difference.

>>935
Thank you very much for commenting my another candid story.

>>934
That's leftover of dinner, right?
And the dinner was made by your wife, right?
So practically, your wife makes your bento-lunch, doesn't she?
You just pack leftover in your bento lunch box.

I think your effort of saving money is great. You can survive this harsh
economic situation.

>>938
Exactly.
As you said, it can be called 「aisai bento(beloved wife's lunch)」.
I will survive any situation with my wife.

Heart warming story...

>>939
It's easy on your purse.
In my case, I hardly have lunch because I tend to feel sleepy after eating.

>>941
You do?
I take a nap, sitting in a chair, after lunch.
It's also good for my health.

You must be young.

Uh I mean short nap, or I might be fired.

>>927
Don't worry. Firestar's English isn't the best!

>>944
But his/her explanation is easy to understand for me.

>>944
yeah, but isn't he a native speaker of English?

>>946
who knows?

The contents are most important for me.
Informative, interesting or funny.

>>948
I think you mean 'and' :)

Good afternoon.
How's tricks?

>>949
Thank you for the correction:)

>>946
No way!

At least not a native speaker of Japanese, I guess.

Please leave us alone.

i wake up to so many messages!
>>906 no i learnt "yosh" through guess what... drama...
it is a university run course, open to students and academic staff.
our sensei are from Japan so we are extremely lucky.
I will watch the video later as I am eating my breakfast now.
>>928 that is sucha sweet story!
years ago similar situation when a significant other who from my
home country and i were taking a stroll
him being a huge Robbie Williams fan, started singing along to
his walkman:

"Who do you think you are foolin
Making me feel so SORE (correct version is "sure")"

I could not stop laughing but was really embarrassed. I tried to
explain to him that it was embarassing, him mispronouncing "sure"
gives a lot of "wrong " messages,
and singing aloud is not something that everyone does unless drunk etc.

However he took it the wrong way, was very upset and he sulked.
It took me a while to make him speak to me again!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9l5bQJEI_ko&feature=fvw

Nothing doing.

mispronuncing not mispronouncing, sorry.

>>957 aw i got it wrong .. it was correct...
mispronouncing

>>944
oh boy thanks...

Hello!!!!!!!!!!!

>>960
ELLO!!

Where are you from?

>>962
who, me?

How stupid !

Who knows?

God knows...

Whatever !

I said leave us alone. Why are you guys getting in our way?

That surprised me very much. Get over.

I'll go vizard and help save this world from any shit no matter what.

Do you think Urahara Kisuke is also a vizard?
We know he did something to return Hirako and the others from hollowfication
and made them vizard. We still don't know how much time it took him to invent
that method. Anyway, while he made Hogyoku and turn them safely into vizards,
so there's no wonder if Kisuke tried it himself before putting it on Hirako.
What do you think of that?

I'll go tonsurer and help Korea achieve the worldwide fame as the best supplier of alcoholic beverage.

>>968
Who do you suppose to say to?

TONSURU IS THE BEST SOUVENIR EVER SEEN IN THIS WORLD OF SHIT!!!

What's tonsuru anyway?

I love my wife.

What? You don't know what Tonsuru is?
Tonsuru is a traditional Korean alcoholic beverage made from shit.

It's famous only in this thread, ha-ha.

>>960
Hello!!! Do you like coffee?

>>977

I wanted to know how famous it is and I got more than 100,000 hits?
It just wowed me.

>>979
Instant coffee is Japanese invention. Do you know that?

Leave us alone.

>>981
I didn't know that!! You wowed me like a good cup of aromatic coffee!!

You can be alone if you go out from here.

Japanese instant food will prevail among people all over the world.

Which is darker, shit or coffee? That's the problem.

Please don't disturb us. You guys are not welcome here.
Please understand and leave us alone.

Sounds like you could use some coffee now. I think I'll make some too.<3

It seems a lot of ladies are here. Let's change the subject.

No you can't. I flately deny that.

this is close to 1000!

How fast!
What made this so?

Leave us alone. Stop doing this nonsense. Please.
You are bringing disaster to us.

>>992
Maybe lots of people watch this
I mean I cme here everyday:)

I can enjoy any topics and get along with tonsurers.
Be mature everyone.

Snap out of it. I can't take it any more. We are here to be left alone.
Those who oppose that should go to hell.

We'll put this to end, if you are bothering us.

Why don't you let me join the we?
This is so exclusive place?

It's because you guys don't even try to leave us alone.

We are free! We should be left alone here in this thread!
We have the right to live peaceful lives. Don't you ever consider
disturbing us!
