>>1 Fuck yourself. The below has got to be included in >>1
---------------- Hey!!! All 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, Weeaboo from around the world, learners of Japanese who are too lazy to update their Japanese blogs very often, cunning linguists, stupid fan girls of Johnny's Boys, Touhou pirates, and that electrical super-gay who suffers from mental disease - This is your thread! Let's hope Igirisu-jin and the Internet-addicted housewife will come back soon!
This is the place to have a blast!!!!! Let's continue to support recovery efforts in Japan!!!!!
Goodmorning guys,and I have to say goodnight to some. yet actually it is I that must be said so by you guis.anyway fresh day comes punctually.so you don't miss your transportaitions.harry! jump out of bed! I'd get into it in turn goodnight.
What a day...This is the first time I felt like this in a long time. My confidence was totally destroyed. I'm feeling incredibly helpless and stupid. The things that I can usually ignore or forget, they are really bothering me for some reason. I kept trying to make myself believe I'm making progress and trying to look at only the bright side but I guess it was all pointless. I'm so tired of sucking at everything I do. I suck at socializing, languages, school, relationship and everything. I've had enough of feeling like shit. I hate myself for being such a socially awkward dumb loser
It's such a nice day today! Lately It's been not so cold and bright outside until 7 or 8pm because of light saving. I'll enjoy the sunlight as much as I can!
Alright, I crossed two items off the list in >>39. After I went without toilet paper for 2 days, I finally bought them last night. Yayy I don't need to wipe off my butt with make up remover sheets and dry with an unclean towel anymore. That made my bathroom life much better! Aaaand wait actually that's the only thing I got done with so far. I thought I did class registration but I didn't submit the form yet so the 3rd one still not completed. Phew
>>62 I'm shy to say this but yeah I really do. I haven't talked to her for weeks. There's been a lot going on lately and I've been kinda down, which makes me miss Tokyo and my mom much more.
I was so suprised to hear Obokata's copy and paste Although, I really hope that she doesn't commit suicide eventhough it was mostly her fault. The media was too quick to bite like Samura-Gouchi's case They do not really look into things before they put them on the air Obokata's news was pretty shocking for many Japanese and we do have no word at all but if media did some inspection on the beforehand, and would not blame all the fault to those people that they broadcasted, it would had been much more better than it was right now
Happy Friday everyone! It's such a nice day. My day is going pretty good so far. After school I chatted with friends from my school's Japanese club thing. It's been a while since I went to their gathering last time but everyone was as nice as before so I'm glad I went.
Some people accuse her too much but it seems to me that she is just so ・・・you know what I really think that she was just doing her job and got into something too serious The copy & paste was just so unbelievable but it also tells us that maybe she was just really so innocent like a child
by the way, I really hope that she doesn't commit suicide eventhough it was mostly her fault. The media was too quick to bite like Samura-Gouchi's case
exactly! All she got to do is just to prove it or she'll have no future as a scientist That is for sure. She'll probably have difficulty getting married as well and that is really bad. As a woman, I want to believe her
I have just seen this Anti-rape condom on youtube and I must say that it was just so amazing That is the biggest invention of the 21st century for sure
This dude is the lonely saint, the guardian angel of this thread. defend this thread against invasion.guard this thread from enemy attack. We can count on him to protect us. Thank you, Lonely Saint!
Brr it's so cold in my room. I left the window open for 3 days and when I came back home this morning, the CDs on the window sill got wet from rain. They are probably no use anymore..
>>117 Because if I leave the window shut for days, my apartment gets so humid and hot and starts to smell...It needs to keep ventilated. And since I live on the 3rd floor, there's no need to worry about getting broken in..
Relaxing at a cafe. I have something important to do, but I keep procrastinating like I don't know about it. I'll buy a book on Kindle that I wanted to read now. I put aside an essay draft due tomorrow and enjoy reading.
I read that the most stinky food in the world is some kind of canned fish made in Northern Europe. Supposedly, the smell is so exceptionally intense that in some of the countries it's against the law to open the can inside a building. While reading this, I couldn't help asking myself this ultimate question;which smell would be more deadly, the world's smelliest canned fish with Guinness record for it or my pissy pussy during period that's not washed for days?
I know. I cannot stand the smell of myself during period That napkin is a horror. I have heard that some use tampon but that is quite a challenge for me I hope there is a medicine to stop this irritating period I am BBA and I definitely do not need my period
I can't even go into to a tub before my parents during my period The summer is just so awful because this place is so hot and humid That place is totally raising temperature and humidity and very itchy sometimes I am definitely MO and I hate my period. I do have to carry this along with me for maybe another 20yrs and it is honestly quite a misery
I hate guys saying, " Women do have better life than men" Then take this you mother fuXXer This happens once a month and I really hate it so much I also have this awful mood swing during a period and faint sometimes I enjoy being a woman, but not this
BBA's story is uncalled for, that's just disgusting. That better life rule only applies to young and lovely women. not an ugly BBA. Tell me what part of being a woman you enjoy if you are a BBA.
Well, even young pretty ladies will grow old and ugly someday..unless they get something done with their faces. No matter what sex, younger people are physically more attractive (with some exceptions.)
Sorry for posting in a row. But I'm so bored at Starbucks now! I'm taking a little break from studying and enjoying the Internet surfing. It's funny how there are only white people here. This seems to be the least racially diverse Starbucks I've ever visited lol
Speaking of Lonely Saint, he's been having an obsession with elderly women. He is thinking of older ladies all the time, 24-7. Why doesn't he talking about young pretty girls? Scared? Don't be afraid of young girls, Lonely Saint. They will love you.
I had a coffee with my Vietnamese friend. He's so nice!!Actually when he first offered to go grab coffee together after class, I was a little reluctant. I wanted to keep to myself cuz I didn't feel like socializing..but..surprisingly I had a fun time. I didn't talk much but he talked a lot so it didn't get awkward. It's a good start to my day ^^
For hardcore neets, everyday is spring break throughout the year. So there's nothing special about it.
The only thing that makes hardcore neets realize it's spring break is TV broadcast of national high school baseball tornament at Koshien Stadium. Other than that, it's business as usual.
I don't think so. Honshu dosen't have any official orure. However, Kyushu has 12 official orures. Honshu is far from Korea but Kyushu is very close. Honshu envy Kyushu.
>>169 Orure is a Korean trekking culture. It uses many special Korean style course markings. The markings are evidences that the places are virtual territory of Korea.
>>170 Don't you know Fuji no kuni orure (ふじのくにオルレ)?
>>172 The current govornor of Shizuoka Prefecture like Korea very much. I think Fuji no kuni orure will become a official orure in the near future. Therefore, a lot of tourists will be able to see the Korean style markings.
You seem to escape from reality. The reality is that Japanese people cannot stop spreading Orure all over Japan. Japanese people always want to make a fool of Korean, but , if they recognize the severity of spreading Orure, they regognize that Korea is superior to Japanese.
Obviously you desperately want to be Korean like fucking stupid middle-aged women out there who are obsessed with Korean dramas, Korean music, Korean food, Korean language and use all their fucking free time and do these things like a pyscho
And they even go to Korea on weekend and enjoy shopping and even speak some Korean and then they boast about the trip to their friends like Korea is good nida~ Korean people are so nice nida~ japan should apologize for horrible actions in the past to Korean ~~ bla bla bla
If Kyushu area became reknowned place in economy, political power and in urban functions would be interesting. Like the relation of London and Glasgow. If Glasgow were Hokkaido or Tokyo, place like Kyushu could became London.
I've seen the name before somewhere. Isn't it a site which offers unexpurgated porno videos for free? Well, to be honest, I'm a frequent visitor to it. lol
It is very difficult to explain it. I can't express it well in English. The only thing I can say about it is that the greatest difference between Japanese and Korean are the shape of eyes.
I really do not know what is really happening nowadays My relatives died with leukemia do to A-bomb and I hope it will never occur again in every countries That was just a tragedy. I am so scared and frightened everyday I can't stand watching news with so many racism
I understand what you are saying. It is said that the Japanese are a mixture of some ethnic group. Among them, the so-called Yayoi strain is said to have come from the Korean penisula and slant eyes are one of their characteristics.
I do think there will be many conflicts when there are many ethnic groups involved but I really hate to see hatred all over I, myself would like to apologize deeply for the military prostitutes as one of Japanese even if government won't admit it I feel so much pain since I heard about it I would want every countries to stop making conflicts and avoid the war as possible because those things are so harmful for everyone
Maybe there are liers but I think some are so true It would be so sad when it happens to us My mother always told me that it is very important to apologize when we did something wrong and I would like to do same thing with my child, when I have a chance to raise them
>>214 every time i go to the bathroom, i clean my son with water directly from the faucet. but my son is so 香ばしい that if you touch it, your hand will be also 香ばしい all day long.
It's all over with Japan. Japan is being occupied by Korean in an information operations war. Japanese conservative people was not able to protect Japan.
Wouldn't be so nice to end yourself with being a virgin not intentionally though We are so pure beings Some Japanese love to have sex but most guys are really true virgins and some live up to like 50 something
I think there is no country like this It is so sad to hear that many guys do not have no chance to go out with girls. Even they had a gf, they'd been used and thrown away What a misery. So most just enjoy they're life just reading comics and have some imaginary gf. I cannot believe some countries are attacking us because we are just so timid. Well, some are pretty radical though
Well, I thought about it I oppose because nowadays, many unstabled workers are used like slaves and even if immigrants came, they'll probably suffer from many bad treatment Also Japanese is really hard to learn, we only have few English speakers
It will be so important to have special classes but Japanese govt aren't able to supply enough kindergarden for mom who really need to work
The feminists in Japan are only interested in wealth women, instead of normal moms who have kids. Some even publish a book like, " How to live alone" and women are getting away from them because they feel nothing is going to help them at all
The system in the foreign countries, and the system in Japan is quite different and the govt is always tells us what to do but they always do not have enough research They are telling because American said so...eventhough, we have different issues and we do need much more deep understanding than that or else we are keep breaking away from the govt
It is very funny in Japan that the old ladies who cannot use PC, they have much higher wage and the good environment than many younger unstable employees
Because they cannot work, younger employees do have to cover their work as well and some aren't even paid for overwork
Low wage and unpaid overwork end up as the increase of NEET
>>220 No problem. Bobody in the world believe what Koreans say bcause they are liars. They are loathed all over the world. Sooner or later, due to their mean spirits, they will be expelled from the international community.
Those ladies, what all they do is just chat every single day Sometimes, I saw them fight and one started crying So a boss gave them a task and told them to count the spare parts but she took 3hrs or so and her counting was incorrect
What would younger employees with low wage feel? We all feel so dumb as those old ladies gets extra bonus twice a year and we don't
>>229 The people who know Korean the most in the world are Japanese. However, many Japanese like Korean and their culture. Even if Japanese people learn the historical fact and Korean behaviors, they will not dislike Korea as the mayor, http://hiwa1118.exblog.jp/17656782/ . He knows the historical fact and Korean behaviors, but he said that civilian exchanges are different from politics. So Japan will be full of Orure and will not be able to stop them. Japan is end.
You guys must go to Kyoto and must see many things as possible Japanese traditional music, which unfortunately that we are not familiar with, consists of two routes. One is from Korean culture and the other one is from China and other Southeastern Asia I saw these art objects (without vivid colors as they were before) but it was so incredible
Japan is manga culture but sometimes I believe manga is very traditional arts in Japan Those things are mixture of the ancient Asia. So wonderful!
Please don't make me laugh! It's not a cultural exchange but the mayor's tactics for making money. So you can't take him at his word. He is just being diplomatic.
I wonder why there is no single splendid movie about "the tale of the Genji" At least, govt could have used money to make this movie instead of making stupid buildings all over the country It is so pityful with having no sense at all
Although, I have gone to many museums and I loved it so much
>>236 Not only the mayor but also Kyushu people like Orure. People likes Orue so much that they made "The forest of Orure(オルレの森)." They love Orure. Thery love Korea in Japan.
>>241 You seem to escape from reality. The reality is that Japanese people cannot stop spreading Orure all over Japan. Japanese people always want to make a fool of Korean, but , if they recognize the severity of spreading Orure, they regognize that Korea is superior to Japanese.
>>239 Japanese are made with mostly strong curiosity We adapt to almost everything and make all sort of things so convenient to our own life-style A very long time ago, we have brought many splendid cultures from all over the world and as we always do, we mixed them and made our own traditional style
In the Tokunaga Reign, people say that we have closed our country but that is sort of not true. Kyushu still were having trade with other countries and many shogun spoke or read Chinese, Portugese and so on
I am only talking about Japanese history I wonder why noone really know about this I had this very very very crippled old lady tutor, who taught me old Japanese literature but I think I was having very rare education than the others
The history is not well understood either and I am pretty suprised by that as well What have gone wrong with Japan anyways? Who knows but as long as I enjoy going to museums and reading good literature from all over the world, I would have no problem at all
All the instruments and outfits used in GAGAKU are the mixtures of foreign countries in Asia It was so wonderful to see CG creation of the old building and statues in NHK It is so bad that we have no money to do more than that
My best friend will have to transfer to another school. He said his new school is two hours from here by car. We hung out with another friend of ours every weekend and had so much fun together. I feel sad thinking we can't meet as often as now... Well things change and people move on. Sometimes there's something that can't be helped.
Reminder to myself.. Remember to return the rental textbook to Amazon!! The contracts says the due date is June but I should do it asap because I might keep forgetting as usual..
Around this time of the year, I always remember a saying,暑さ寒さも彼岸まで, which means summer heat or winter cold doesn't last after the equinox. The sunlght is getting stronger as days go by and we feel more comfortable. I like this season best.
The inside of the air-conditioning (cooled) in summer is covered with mold structurally. It is no use switching it from cooling to ventilation. I hate mold. But the inside of the air-conditioning(heating) in winter is not coverd with mold structurally.
What you're saying is too extreme. Locuts are very tasty. I heard cicadas are tasty, too. I wanna exterminate cockroaches, mosquitoes, moths and flies. However, it will destroy an ecosystem.
>>273 Silkworms are very cute though they are single color but pure white.
>>274 I lived on the fouth floor in a Danchi(団地) The Danchi is 4 stories high, so there is no elevators. There were a lot of moths on the landing. They flied to my face. It is horror. However, the most terrible insects are drane flies(ががんぼ、蚊トンボ)
i often search porn videos on xhamster with the word "daddy" and in most cases uncalled for mature womens appear in them with daddies showing their xxx
porn is no fun. I saw it and I thought that was such a fake boobs and too much plastics I tried to understand but those were like a trash to me The romantic novels are really good
How can you guys just enjoy watching it Women are like showing off way too much They're totally like "C'MON! Can't you see my pus*y!" and totally amazing rather than erotic
I hope this will be corrected by English speakers. ↓
虫 character is the abridged form of 蟲 character. And 蠱 character means a meat on a dish producing many worms.
At past our fathers thought of a way to get the strongest poison. They supposed many insects having poisons in a pot would eat each other; and the last one standing would store all poisons they had. And they called this poison as 蠱毒 (ko-doku).
I suppose 蠱毒 must be sprung out from temporary staffs in Japan.
Yukio Mishima was a genius but so weirdo I think that he was just so serious and search the perfection way too much His novels were romantic but his essays were very mean and very critical If I were a man, I would probably become impotent
Some refered his mind as a statue of Greece for trying to be too perfect and musculine
Takuboku Ishikawa and he is absolutely my favorite since I was in my elementary school and I was writing about him in the other thread but these people are so mean and leave comments like he is so whimpy and he whines too much I cannot believe how they have hard time to understand his haiku stupid arrogant assholes
Sleeping in my man's arms and kissing good nite every nite. Couldn't be any better : ) I wish a life like this could last forever but I know we're not meant to be together in the end. So all I can do is enjoy every second with him...until the day comes =(
oh...you know what I think love is just everything we need in our life love and some money to make a living
There are so many hatred around us today but people used to forget why we are alive in the society
Even if we had a lot of money, I think Japan was unable to understand how our society should be. To support and love everything we see and hate every bit of wrongful things
Definitely. Love is something we need in our life...our life will be totally different when we have someone we love than when not. But some people are obsessed with love and they have unrealistic expectations for romantic relationship. And they end up being hurt knowing there's no such thing as lasting love... I'm no different. No matter how many times I cry and get heartbroken, thinking I'll never open up to anyone like I did to my ex, I repeat the same thing with someone else. It seems like I won't learn at all ha but there's one thing I really learned and it helps me get over a break up:to accept the fact there's higher chance of having to say goodbye to a guy I'm in love with eventually than of being able to stay with him for the rest of my life.
Well serious thing aside, I'm now deciding to cook rice or not. It's not good to eat late at night yes I know but I'm so hungry and my stomachs needs some foooood. The only thing I got at home is rice..and some colorful low calorie jelly thing
>>308 I am all dried up lately and much more interested in how to make the good environment for children It seems no one is really not focusing on this matter eventhough it it very important Everyone says, " yeah, well I do care about Japan" but all I see is not love but just power and I am very concerned about that
When my grandpa was alive, he was from Bushi family, and all he thought about was how to raise children Back then, many suffered from the poverty but he gave away a sewing machine for a single mom who could not work, eventhough, his family was suffering from poverty My mom gave away her money for the charity to the poor kids around the world as well
That is a strong key for the healthy growing society and not taking away from children
Love is important though. It was lucky for me to enjoy that moment All the guys on the net seem to not know anything about giving and taking love I do not believe those people at all
Well maybe the best thing to do is you start a journey to burn every single condom all around the country. That way, horny people have no choice to have sex without protection and thus many many kids! I think Japan's low birth rate will be the problem if any...
Just ate rice fresh from rice cooker with gohan desuyo. Gohan desuyo is the best invention ever in Japan's history. That's one of the top 10 things I'm proud of my country about ha
Well, so-called "partnership" in europe is not technically marriage, but almost same. you can get a kind of green card for it.
I don't know if I really love him, but, you know, sometimes compromise is inseparable from our life. I wanna live in europe, wanna lerne german language, want economic stability :-)
Change your relationship status to engaged on FB. It's so funny they show off when they get into relationship and everyone's like "congrats! I'm so happy for you☆☆" but when the relationship ends, they hide it from everyone and secretly change the status back to single.
to be honest, for amorous folks, I mean "for us", to choose the one is not that happy :-D I have a bunch of BFs and sex buddies, and so does he. most of gay couples are not monogamous, but in "open relationship."
Basically, I oppose same sex marriage. If you think for what purpose the marriage system exsists, you will agree to my opinion. It is the system for protecting the weak socially. So there's no reason for gay couple to take advantage of this system. If you love each other, you just live together. That's it! Any problem?
>>333 Wow that's interesting. I know some gay people around me but they are all American. I've never met/talked with a Japanese gay. I'm on the skeptical side so I still can't believe with confidence you're serious lol
>>336 HAHAHA!!! could you explain to me "what purpose the marriage system exsists"? you must have read Denis de Rougemont's "L'Amour et l'Occident" :-)
I'm so bored at this hour of the day. I have nothing to do but check FB or 2ch. My apt wifi sucks and sometimes I can't even connect to the Internet...it seems fine today but it's been bad lately and I've been frustrated. Plus my room is way too small for the rent charged...There's not even space to put away my stuff!! Ahh I want to get out of this s*** hole anytime soon!
It is okay for gays to get married like the opposite couples but I like the way gays are hidden from the society That was much more romantic than today, don't you think so?
There are always the good sides and bad sides It is not either good nor bad... but... thing, you know I mean, look at women today in Japan. Some are working so hard and still so feminine but some turned in to a complete control freak who attacks other women living differently
The power is hard thing to control. I think one has to be really patient, clear, and calm and I found out some people who are not used to those things, they tend to treat the power in the wrong way
The way too emotional and very narrow-minded
It works when you are not in the position of the power, but it does not work when you have a power
Those are things that every people have to think about when getting the attention to make it trustworthy
>>347 oh thnx I still don't get a picture though: / But I agree woman's worst enemy is woman. Look how harsh women are on other women's looks and abilities. There used to be girls at school who only hung out with pretty girls who were high on popularity scale. They think they are better than everyone else, looking down on other girls. Funny thing is they do the same thing within the group as well. so often one girl is left out of her group and starts being picked on etc
I also hated it when girls flattered other girls in front of guys while they talked bad about them behind their backs. That's so low. I'm trying not to become such a sneaky b* myself.
Those who have introverted personality tend to think things over and can't take them as they are. So they often use that kind of words such as " have to", " has to" or whatever. That means they expect others to follow their moral values but as there is a saying," so many men so many minds",it never happens. As a result, they are apt to complain about the sutuation they face and get frustrated.
>>354 That is totally me Although, there is a good part though Very considerate sometimes that is way sometimes I lose words during discussion I need sometime to think My sis is more keen and extroverted that is why she is so positive but sometimes we have big arguments because I think she is too pushy and I need more time to think. She tells me I am too slow and irritating and I start crying
>>353 I'm sort of raised in a matrilineal family and used to see fighting between them normally When you are a matrilineal family, you really do not need to contact with many other women too much because we're so exausted with too many women in a normal life
I have gone out with girls who are trustworthy and I really take some time to get close. I'd rather feel better being alone because once I get home, there are many women in the house. My sis brought her friends, aunts, grand-aunts, my friends, and women all over! Yep
>>362 It's for everyone honeyyy. And don't worry, just because someone got a high score on TOEIC or TOEFL doesn't always mean they speak english fluently! I've seen many international students(including myself)who can't even do basic English conversation even though their TOEFL score says they're super advanced! Well long story short, being good at paper tests is not the same as being good at conversational English yo
>>364 my ex was like that. He knows every single bit of the grammers but could not speak at all. I don't care about the grammer, I don't think that much, but I speak fluently
I think most women are born from the mouth I really love gossips and talk with people eventhough, I'm more like a cautious type, I cannot help myself with this huge curiosity Although, we all learn that it is not really good to talk about the rumors but inside the house, if there are girls all over, we grab the info from every bit of place, and keep on talking until the dawn
I think there are two types of talkative people around me. Basically, almost everyone can become talkative when talking about themselves. That is because what they are intersted in most is themselves. So some people keep talking like a machine gun about themselves or what they care about even if I get bored with their conversation. I dont' like this kind of people and it's not funny at all to converse with them.
>>392 do not rub your nipples too much!!! otherwise they'll be getting bigger. and that's why I avoid nipple play. you'll see, on gay beach, plenty of men have bigger nipple, yuck!
That might be a lie. My nipples have been very small since I started to rub my nipples 10 years ago. However, I think, sucking nipples storongly may cause your nipples bigger.
It can't be helped because there is a generation gap between you and your grandfather. It must be enjoyable for him only to be with you, so stay with him as much as possible. I know what you feel because I was taken care of by my grandparents when I was a kid. But all living things are mortal, so.....
I always asked money for my grandparents See, they don't use money and it is not definitely good for the Japanese economy. I bought so many books. Ofcourse, I did work as well but I'd saved them. Smart huh?
The old generation don't spend nothing but they just save
I used to spend most of the days in the used book stores So cheap and filled with out of print books Nowadays, they search the net and it is expensive but back then, they had no knowledge so it was so cheap
Sometimes, there were some memo or letters inside the book and it was so really interesting to read them I think they had passed out so his/her relatives sold all the books without knowing the memo
>>402 back then, there were some tiny bugs were in there Very old books but it was out of print so there was no choice As long as they don't bite human, there is nothing to worry about
I bought a book on the Internet which the former owner wrote a date, a word "permanent preservation," his full name, and his seal. Why did he part with the book? I'm deep in thought.
I don't know much but if they do not have much evidence to prove to the 3rd party that he is guilty then I think giving a death sentence was just so cruel thing to do
I am against a death penalty these days as well
The evidence must be 100% and should not be like fuzzy things
Do you have any interest about the number? I think that a number 8 is a pretty strong number "The good fortune" The influence is very very very strong, both good and bad It will be better used for all instead of his/her own needs
you can't call toothpaste "boring stuff"! m9 ( ・`ω・´) i always try to choose it carefully like what is good for what. now I have Clinica for enamel on the surfice of teeth and Asesu for periodontal disease.
I don't have no interest in buying things since I was young I wear almost the same clothes everyday I noticed that I only buy books and travel sometimes I hate hospital and medicine, I don't trust them much, so I only take medicine (mostly 葛根湯)and I only go to a dentist
I go to 1000yen cut and I never had a problem in my life
Influenza was something though I felt sick suddenly and I'd stayed in Futon and had some 葛根湯 but still not well or getting worse Everywhere in my body hurts and my fever was so high I'd tolerated for 3 days but my ex thought it was something and took me to the hospital and they serves me Tamiflu and got so better like nothing had happened. I thought medicine is not that bad afterall
>>431 you like monk I want to live like you someday i really respect that you have no purchase desire maybe I'm addicted to buying because I want everything interested and I always doesn't have enough money
>>432 It depends. You can't really choose a hairdresser Although, my area, there are several 1000yen cut and one place is for like mom's generation, and where I go is for people around 30s to 40s
If you're a woman then you might need to choose carefully but if you're a man, if a hairdresser is quite young, it doesn't really matter
Ah it's so peaceful isn't it? Spring break has just started. Grades for last semester will be available from tomorrow. I did better than the semester before. At least I didn't fail any classes this time I hope. For a PE class I'm sure I got 4.0 cuz the teacher let us know beforehand. Next semester will be my last at this school so I'll enjoy every minute of my school life here.
No more procrastinating! I was two weeks late paying for college tuition. I had some trouble with my bank account and couldn't pay but I didn't let the student office know about it. Then they dropped me off the classes I was registered in so I had to register all the classes again. That was a lot of work cause I can't register for classes online now, which means every time I want to register add or drop classes, I have to do all the paperwork going to a couple of different offices. Right now my student account is on hold and some of the online services provided are limited. I need to get this hold taken off soon.
You know, 2ch is pretty depressing sometimes I mean the news around us today are so depressing these days Jyaku-cho san said, " Today is much worse than ever "
What is happening with STAP? 3 lawyers and it seems to be pretty huge!
At first, it started out with the critical errors with her reports then our attention was whether the cell is ES or STAP It will be so good to know the existance of STAP That is it. Although, there is no press conference from a chief leader, Obokata san yet and it's like 2 months since this started
The now is she is filing the a lawsuit with Riken and we're like what the hell is going on?
Riken's press conference is weird. However, at least, Obokata san needed to write a paper issue which has a proof value. STAP may exist, but may be a problem in safety. I don't know. There is no reason Riken has to obscure the research results if STAP is valuable.
Even don't like to give people the second chance nowadays, negligence of individual is weird. I don't get why she had to hire lawyer to lawsuit. The research fund is from Riken.
It seems pretty childish doesn't it? Although, today I think things are getting way too excessive People won't really forgive other's mistake The apperance that she first came out on TV had too much impact with this Japanese apron. It was totally like a celebrity instead of a researcher and many people might have thought that was pretty odd
You know, celebrities they hide from many paparazzi and it must be a disaster. She is just a normal woman Maybe that was a campaign to stimulate some women, but it did not work and instead it had gone wrong
>>448 Nope somewhere else :) Hmm I think the other way around!I'm glad I was born in this time period. Today we have everything that they didn't have in the past. Fast and safe transportations, computers, cellphones, advanced medical technology, long life span, freedom to choose your life and all that. I thank God that I wasn't born in the war times or thousands years ago when they didn't have freedom and might have been forced to live an undesired life! And worst thing of all is if they'd get sick, even when not anything serious by our standards today, they could die so easily back then. That must have sucked!
>>465 Maybe that is true I had read once that Germany did combined in one, but many people wanted to go back to the East once again It was because that they were so tired to choose things Freedom is good thing but it is kind of exausting for the normal people
We have to choose school, career, partners, and so on My parents had a life plan since they were born There were something like "women should be" "men should be" and they felt nothing more to that
So whenever I need an advice, they're like "why don't you choose?" and I lose my word. I am so sure that many people are like that today There are only few talented people and others are just so normal
I won't say bad but this is not that good either At least, I can read books as much as I want to That is the only thing I like about living If my life was restricted to read books then it must had been so terrible
I saw this TV program sometime ago where a seller (I don't remember what he was selling) was selling some pieces of merchandise to the customers just to see which one of the goods they'd choose. The result of the experimentation was interesting. If the customers were given only a few goods to choose, they almost immediately decided which one of them to buy, but if they were given many goods to choose, they thought over for a while and ended up buying nothing.
So, it's like, the more free you'll be, the harder time you'll have.
>>465 What I'm most thankful for for our time is probably the Internet. It literally has changed my life. Compared myself now to myself before the emergence of the Internet, I'm literally a different person. Wish the Internet had been available earlier, so that I would be leading a better life now.
No wonder there's no one here given what time it is now...
Just one question. What would you do when you do want to chat with someone in English but there's no one available? You just wait? Or do you know any place else where you can do that?
>>470 I mean, why Japanese apron anyways in the lab? I've heard in 2ch, that she took a rubber off from the wrist of her apron Is it true? People using Japanese Apron needs rubber so that it won't bother you while you are working Although, there are some Japanese Apron without rubber in the wrist but it bothers you way too much
I was wondering why did no one really say maybe that is pretty weird before somebody planned it?
I feel so sorry for her that no one really gave her a good advice It is like c'mon, if you're women, you'll kind of know that might stimulate other women in different ways That is too much of men's fantasy
I know. It was nice to hear the news at the first time but now I am worried about that it might affect other women who are working just fine I hope STAP exists
>>474 I didn't know about her taking off the rubber part. But I see she always wore a long sleeve blouse under the kappougi. Maybe she didn't want the wrist part of her blouse to get wrinkled? I can't come up with any other reasons.
I never knew about Samuragochi until this thing comes up What a big liar and so greedy! So ashamed of him. He should leave this country forever There are too many very greedy liars all over our country right now and we're so ashamed of these people I hope they'll never step the earth of Japan
What happened to Japanese morality today? We only feel tremendous humiliation I have always told that there is not much smart people being a show off but most of them just make us feel really humiliated Although, many Japanese are still very honest and working with only little money and very bad environment
Although, there is old saying that even if there is one's fault, there is a reason for that so I will forgive him to live in this country Many trusted him and it is so rediculous
>>491 So he's the Moriguchi guy >>482 just mentioned above. Thanks.
>>484 As far as the Gouchi thing is concerned, what he's done is truly disrespectful to music fans. But I also think that a good music is a good music after all and it shouldn't be judged upon what kind of person has composed it.
The other day I might have been caught picking my nose by my boyfriend. I was watching TV in a living room with my back facing the bathroom when that happened. He said he'd take a bath and went to the bathroom so I let my guard down assuming he won't be out of there for awhile. At that moment I turned into a total Oyaji. I stuck my finger up my nostril and started "cleaning" my nose. Not after too long, I heard the bathroom door slide open and him say something to me from behind. I was so surprised and quickly put my hand down but it was too late. Since I was sitting with my back toward him, He didn't see me doing it from the right front. So I'm not 100% sure if he noticed what I was doing. I really hope he didn't. Period.
>>500 May I ask you a question? Have you ever eaten boogers since you were grown up? I'm just wondering if grown women eat boogers on a daily basis when men are not around.
>>502 ?! Give me proof that you're really him. What are your name initials? >>503 I don't think being a woman has nothing to do with this it's a bit of sexism on men's part to think women don't do things that's considered not feminine but okay yes I think I tried a couple of times when I was very little. It was salty.
Momoe chan retired from the show business entirely and never had returned She was from very poor, a single parent family and she had got to help her mom
Who in the world would want to get attention by all those freaks
>>490 He is Mr.Hisashi Moriguchi. He boasted that he executed a transplantation with the practical use of iPS cells. Yomiuri newspaper informed it on the top article.
The news said that Obokata, " manupulated and fabricated" the data What happens if there are STAP cell? Would she still be punished like Dr. Moriguchi?
Although, isn't this punishment too much? I do know nothing about this field but if this is a competition with other reseachers, it is quite understandable It may affect other Japanese reseachers as well
(`●、`皿´ メ)Ψ I'm a member of Sea Shepherd. I''m not a racist. I don't have white supremacism. I'm not a hypocrite. I threw butryic acid at the Japanese whaling ships in onder to protect whales.
The article reads the launch of website is to attract more members. If they're serious about attracting young members, I'd say they should make the site bilingual. Maybe Chinese or Korian translations would be most effective.
They stink so much during Summer I cannot ride a train because of it All the women smell fine but men are just the nightmare I have to stick in that place for about 30min and gives me a strong headache from the morning. Some guys put cologne for no reason but that is the worse thing that they do. The cologne and this odor mixed together and I totally get so dizzy
I found a journal of my boyfriend's at his apt. It was from 2008 and I knew he was preparing to get married around that time although he never mentioned that. I know his ex's name so I was looking for her name through pages. And then there it is. It seems like they had dinner together with his family on Christmas. Nice. There's also a note saying she injured her hand. Ah he must have been worried about her! So caring. After having done this morally questionable thing, I like him much more now.
Australia is a very coward country .They cannot do any logical thinkings. The only conuntry doing researn whaling is Japan, so Australia must do it in place of Japan.
>>544 you're misunderstanding something. the backers of hunting whales are not only netouyo, but the great part of Japanese! this is the same as the supporters of the Emperor system, though I'm not one of those.
as far as I know, they wants the goverment to leave IWC. actually this is fetters, and, in this sense, we are still cooperative with anti-whaling countries. we have still another way for whaling after leaving IWC, such Norway and Iceland.
>>549 I'm in my forties, and when I was an elementary school kid, they served whale meat for school lunch. Back then, it was very common and popular food for school lunch. I bet everybody in my generation feels nostalgic about whale meat served for school lunch. It tastes really good. I don't think I have eaten it ever since because my mom for some reason never used whale meat for dinner. I don't feel any guilty about eating whale meat but I was shocked some parts of Japan eat dolphines meat, which was featured in the movie "The cove." I wont't eat dolphins meat but I have to respect the culture of eating them.
mummm, Munich is one of my favorite cities in Germany because of lots of art Ludwig collected. I've been there 3 times. also in Augsburg and Altomunster.
The problem with banning hunting whale is that a long time ago, we did not have enough food to feed everyone all over Japan. Once we ban the whale hunt then if we ever encounter with having no foods, we would have no technique to hunt whales again So some will starve to death
I have never ate a whale in my whole life, but my parents used to say they had them when they were young and it wasn't good either
>>576 So funny to see the word listed in the dictionary! Also the example sentence in there "Hey Bro checkout this sweet unkotare video I found... it is super kawaii-desu". We don't use the word like that. I even don't remember when I last actually got out that word.
☆ Driving through the countryside during an election campaign, a politician suddenly announced to his aides that he was going to throw a fifty-pound note out of the window and make someone happy. “Why not throw fifty one-pound notes out of the window and make fifty people happy?” suggested an aide. The driver turned around in his seat and said, “Why not throw yourself out of the window and make everybody happy?”
Both languages are evil They spread the languages by killing innocent people and colonized so many countries and then these languages are spoken worldwide now
☆ While waiting for a discussion to start in the House of Lords, a young journalist turned to the man standing next to him and said, “Have you heard the joke about the Lord and the prostitute?” The man turned to him crossly and said, “Be careful, young man. I happen to be a member of the House of Lords. “Oh, don’t worry,” said the journalist, “I’ll tell it very slowly.”
☆ A bus load of politicians were driving down a country road when all of a sudden, the bus ran off the road and crashed into a tree in an old farmer's field. The old farmer, after seeing what happened, went over to investigate. He then proceeded to dig a hole and bury the politicians. A few days later, the local policeman came out, saw the crashed bus, and asked the farmer where all the politicians had gone. The old farmer said he had buried them. The policeman then asked the old farmer, "Were they all dead?" The old farmer replied, "Well, some of them said they weren't, but you know how politicians lie."
Enlighs lanugage users like anti-whaling activists cannot use lanugage. They are only used by language.
"words → words " is only a language game. "words → logical thinking →words" is "using lanugage."
Many Foreigners cannot use language. They don't reach Japanese people level. They are not people who like peace. They want to be racists, but, as they don't want to be criticized, they are criticizing Japanese through whaling.
It is really nice and wonderful country. It seems that man can live without woman in Japan or vice versa Although, we have problem with having only few children because living in Japan is quite too comfy
>>594 593 thinks you are under high stress (please, no crap about why he thinks so), and he suggests you have a gf to help yourself let go of your stress...
I forget how to make a girlfriend, but I had had a girlfiend for seven years five years ago. I have not do sex for five years. I have never visited the sex trade shop. However, I reach the limit of my sex drive. I will probably first visit it sometime this year.
>>598 Be careful about possible sexually transmitted diseases. I twice or so have been to the sex trade shop. Each time of which was within one year from after I broke up with my gf lol
Classes finally start today. My spring break is over :( I need more time to rest my body and soul! You know when I woke up this morning and realized today is the first day of the quarter(semester), I felt I would rather die in the sleeping bag than getting up and going to school!
I still have about 2 hours before my class. It takes 5-10 mins from my house to school depending on whether I walk or run. Should I stay awake or maybe I can take a short nap?
Nap is so good but it is good to study in the morning than evening I used to study in the morning unless it is something to memorize If I need to memorize things, I heard that it is good before going to sleep
I did some sports during evening then get back to my assignments
That's true. Score years ago I read a book on languages that said early in the morning before you go to school or work is the best time to activate your brain for study of language. Schopenhauer a German philospher got up early and dedicated all morning to his Sanskrit study as well.
>>610 Didn't know that. But yeah I feel I can think more clearly in the morning, especially when I wake up early. At any rate I've chosen to stay awake. Prolly studying at cafe until class starts.
I like okayu(rice gruel) with oysters and green dried seaweed I hope I had that when I was still a student Instead I had okayu with umeboshi or rice balls, dashi-tamago(egg), ham, vegetables, fruits, and a miso soup
It will be nice to eat chicken or fish during lunch with vegetables
I ate so many things but I wasn't that fat back then I think my brain was working so hard
I will go to Reddit sometime in the far future when my English is better than now.
Japanese make many translation sites from reddit. I often read it. Some Japanese think there are a lot of anti-Japanese people and people who believe false Japanese history that China and Korea ant Ameraica made. Nanking, 731, comfort women are all false and propaganda. I think foreigners cannot tell fact from fiction.
I will try my best to learn only the truth from you. I am making a youtube channel (JasmineTVChannel) to teach about America and English. I have a twitter (Jasmine_TV) and you can all practice English with me privately there, if you want.
Does anyone have questions about America you want me to make a video about? Or, I can answer here.
Japan also has a lot of problems, but Japanese right wings are not right people. They want only to say history is not fiction. However, in the reddit, people there regard normal Japanese people as the extreme right. Some Japanese are very angry at reddit.
I have posted a link to JasmineTVChannel on the twitter "Jasmine_TV" It seems this place does not like me to post links. Let me know if it works. I will make a video when everyone asks me questions.
I am not a regular user of reddit, I googled "Teach English to Japanese, reddit" and I found this website.
Oh... I don't have a twitter account, so I can't search it in the site of twitter, can I? I don't know twitter well. I have a youtbe account and I searched it but didn't see it (´・ω・`).
and thare have already been four types of "Chat in English," such as here, 外人/害人専用, オバさん専用, and 中年婆専用. I don't know why he/she hate old middle aged women.
Many Korean have certainly hated Japanese people on the grounds of fabricated history they have been making. Aside from this, many Japanese blog sites that translate reddit boards about Japan, especially historical problems and current topics like whaling problem or comfort women issue, show that there are a lot of anti-Japanese people in the world. Of courese, many may be indifferent to them.
Oh, no. :( I hope I have not come across as one of these anti-Japanese. I have a formal interest in Japan and I love to teach English.
I am not really a reddit user.. I don't know how to use reddit. I just used one search on there to find this 2ch. :) I hope I can help you all.
I am filming my first video tomorrow at my University for you all. If you have any questions for the video, please ask them now. I will read them when I wake up. Good night/Good Morning!
GNS writes Takeshim(Dokdo Island) is a territory of Korea. Regardless of this, like tha case of Caroline Kennedy, many Japanese start to doubt if the U.S. is faithful ally.
Anyway, I don't think Americans are anti-Japanese. I hope your success and I welcome and thank you for offering a English teaching tool.
Shit the wifi is weird again. I'm not able to connect to the Internet on my laptop but my phone seems fine?What's wrong with it? It's kind of a hassle to report to the manager although I probably should. I guess the Internet will automatically go back eventually like last time so maybe better to wait:-(
I will buy woman finally tomorrow. Now is the time to throw my virgin !! yeah ! yeah ! I've made a resevation already. All I have to do is just wait and insert my penis into the pussy of bitch's.
>>643 I search "Jasmine_TV" on Twitter but couldn't find your account maybe because you you've just registered your account on Twitter and they don't reflect it on search result yet. Anyway as someone already said, this thread is not you imagine it is, meaning this is basically cesspool of middleaged person like me. If you want to mingle with people of your generation, like teenagers and people in their twenties, I reccomend Twitter or facebook.
>>643 And joining in JET program would be a career suicide if you ask me. Landing on a decent job fresh from college would be far better. My question is how tatoo and same sex marriage/relationship is viewed in America. Do you often see tatooed college students on campus or same sex couple walking hand in hand on campus? I bet in prestigious colleges like MIT, Standford and Harvard, few students have tatoos.
>>643 I know same sex marital status has beome legal after the ruling of federal court, situation in Japan is a decade behind U.S. Gays are still hiding in the closet in most cases here. I'd day. Another question is how you got interested in Japan in the first place? Anime? Nintendo video games? J-POP? I imagine average Americans are not interested in Japanese pop-culture and all that. Thanks. (Had to devide in three parts because 2ch says my post is too long...)
I am interested in teaching English to anyone of any age. :) After my 4 years of University, I want to take a break and teach. Then I will continue for my Doctorate degree in America. In America, recent graduates are usually not hired. :( It is the crisis America is facing.
No one will personally shame someone for having a tattoo. But at work, you must cover it up. Same-sex couples ..depends on the area. Up north, it is OK, in the south (Texas) people think gay people should go to hell.
>>655 I meant those questions for your upcoming Q&A video, but thanks for your answer. America is big so the response deffers from state to state, east coast or west coast, North and South...
>>656 What's 自来也? >> followed by post number like 656, you can direct your post to a specific person, FYI. I'm talking to the post 656 hence, >>656 if you know what I mean.
>>661 The process to fuck girl at the soapland store I chose is that ; first, you make a resevertion over the phone, second, you go to the store and then go to the hotel where soapland store stuff ask you to go , third , have sex with bitch who waits for you at that hotel. It's so simple !!
JET program should be abolished. It allows native English speakers to earn decent income just because they speak English, which doesn't take any efforts as long as they were born and raised in an English speaking country. Japanese government are wasting their budget.
Here is some tip for you you can also get HIV from oral sex
Why some stupid guys in other threads getting HIV neurosis, asking stupid questions like, " um...I had sex with this girl without condom. Do I get HIV?" and I'm like "Ask God" So dumb
He/She registers ミカエラ、Rachel&Jun、Sharla in Japan, and Danny Choo. I like them and I register them, too. I like Rachel&Jun in particular because they also make English sub. It helps English learners.
Some Japanese don't like ビクター(Gimmeaflakeman), who is a youtuber in Japan. He is a little bit anti-Japan or Japanese. Many gaikokujin youtubers in Japan seem to like him. He is just like the boss of the youtubers in Japan. Probably, you will meet him.
Youtubers all have some open mind, so it can't be heiped.
However, if he appears your video, I will see anything of your video but it.
>>666 the risk of HIV infection by oral sex is quite low, unless you have a cut in your mouth. that's why takuya-san, who has sucked over a 4 digit number of cocks, is still neg. :-)
I always wonder why English teachers in japan are so arrogant like gimmea something on YouTube? They think they are special in japan but in actual fact being English teacher is such a shitty job
>>681 I was relieved to hear it. I liked watching a gaikokujin youtube channel. One day, She suddenly mentioned Gimmeaflakeman and said she respets him very much, so I was a little disappointed. I'm looking forward to your channel.
I don't understand this bitch's mentality. She asked to post questions for her vid. And once questins were posted, she completely ignore them. How arrogant this bithch is.
Phew what a day! I'm already worn out on the first day at school. An evening class isn't a good choice when you're taking a class starting early in the morning.
America is just shit. They couldn't make tiny and sophisticated cars like Japan in the old days and its bad finance and trade friction againt Japan was the big problem. American government set the high yen/ low doll policy forcefully in Plaza , leading to bubble econmy in Japan. Moreover about 70 years ago, America didn't ever intend to make Japan big country and did lots of disgusting things to Japan, leading to the beginning of world war and the defeat of Japan. JUST FUCK OFF AMERICAN GOVERNMENT!!
Japanese govt has got to help these guys They get too radical because they are not filled with joy being with a partner Japanese education is all about studying and not really focusing on communicating with opposite sex. Some guys spend most of his school year with guys. They totally lack the skill to communicate with girls end-up alone like forever. I hope govt take this seriously
>>691 Fuck you. I have a wife and we're discussing our child . I guess you're liable to decide a person only by small standpoint. Are you retard or anything ?
>>695 Oops, you see through me. hahaha I'm a student from so-so-ranked-university and , as you may know, I'm virgin. yeah. That aside,,,,,,,,, fuck you.
>>686 Why you so mad. Judging from your posts you seem to be very arrogant, overly self conscious too. It's painful to see you trying so hard to make yourself look cool and smart.
>>694 Don't take seriously what the people say on here! you must know 2ch is full of hatred, trolling, flighting and all that. Most of the users are not happy friendly people. For them, it's a place to verbally abuse others and take their frustration out :-(
>>694 Don't take seriously what the people say on here! you must know 2ch is full of hatred, trolling, flighting and all that. Most of the users are not happy friendly people. For them, it's a place to verbally abuse others and take their frustration out :-(
Well, maybe there might be some exaggeration there but basically that's 2ch :-/ but it can be useful and fun as long as you stay away from unproductive arguments and fights^^
Well, let me take my anger out on here too lol Im taking an American literature class this semester but the teacher is a terrifying man! He's so intimidating, unkind and sarcastic and doesn't seem to care about students. He kept saying this class will be hard and if you don't work super doper hard, this isn't your class. I understand to this point but he went further and discouraged us by telling something like he wants only smart people to stay and the rest of us to get the f* out of his class. I'm definitely on the dumb side so I decided to drop this class right away. It's a lot of work to find another class to fill the spot and get the permission from the teacher but I guess there's no choice here :-(
There is an interview regarding about STAP cell today and Dr Obokata will discuss about it
3% increase of tax is irritating some citizens Dr Obokata's contract was renewed on the end of March and Riken is invested by tax so people's attention are so high
America didn't help Asia in WW2, but Japan destroyed colonies of western countries in Asia. Korea and Taiwan were not colonies. The situation was quite different in colonialism by the Western countries. The bottom line is that the justice in WW2 belonged to Japan, not America.
Japanese people don't think Pearl harbor was evil. We attacked at military places. However, America attacked Japanese civilians by two atomick bombs and so many air raids.
Therefore, American people need defense mechanism to repress emotional conflicts. The defense mechanisms are the below
American want to think Japan did the same mass slauhter, like Nanking, as two Atomic bombs and many air raids. American want to think that two atomic bombs hastened the end of the war.
I don't have anything against the U.S. now. However, if the U.S. is true ally, the U.S. should take sides with Japan suffering from false histories.
>>694 You were born and raised in US., so I don't admire anything about you being able to speak English. Having been surrounded by English speaking environment, it's natural you acquired English proficiency. You sound like you are bettter than us just because you speak English. I don't regard you as an English teacher. At least you have TESOL certificate to garner a certain respect from English learners.
Just as someone in this thread points out, I'm leading a quite tough life. I have no friends, no partners and I'm always all alone with nothing which cheers me up . So I make a concept that suits only for me, that is, Life is just pain. Life is just embarrasment, Life is just solitude. We see lots of successul examples through TV, internet, magazine, and so forth and decide it's important to be winner, to be a person with lots of money and friends , high status, a beautiful boy/girlfriend . This idea , however, doesn't fit for everybody, because some people are obviously asked to do unplesant things at their early ages and cannot express their own desires leading by far more difficult lives than others. I think someone like me should always consider life to be shit and dont hope too much from this unfare world.
It is all my poison parent's fault. I didn't need to drop out of an ex-imperial university. My father said it was not Tokyo university and that it was worthless. I resisted him, but I was reminded of his abuse. My mind got frozen. I was physically storog, but mentally very weak. I didn't know child psychology and brainwashing in a domestic at that time. So, I dropped out of the university in desperation. Then, all that was left is an large amount of pride. My classmates all work in big company and ministries. On the other hand, I live in 6 tatami room the toilet and the bath are in the same place. I live with many cockroaches and flies. I have not took a trip for five years. So, I will have been hating the world untill I get out of my current situation.
>>729 Wow, you're from ex-imperial university ! Great. I guess your father dindnt acknowledge your university,so it's not Kyoto, Osaka university which is high-ranked ones among ex-imperial universities. The unhappiest point in your story is that no matter how hard you studied to get into the good university and enroll there, it wouldn't mean a thing too much unless you graduate from there, I mean, you are nothing but a person whose final educational background is graduation from high school. One's life changes dramatically depending on what parents one has, and if this parents are shit, there is so high possibility their child lead a unhappy life. The most irritating thing for me is that Japan is so rich country with low-rate crime occurreance and I guess about 80% people live happiliy or without big problem , underlining some unhappy people whose life is just fuck.
I agree. In Japan, once you make a mistake, it's gonna be harder and harder to get out of a bad situation. Indeed, there are some places to help loosers like hello works, but they only introduce hard and low payed jobs, moreover you don't know when you lose them. I think the government should guarantee their life by making more effective institutions.
Japanese government does nothing but stupid policy. They are now discussing whether or not endorcing the immigration plan mainly from Chine and Korea where lots of people have hatred toward Japan. This policy sure will worsen Japanese security. But LDP is much better than DPJ and this party is the party with best function. I think Japan is doomed
You know what. I was working as a contract and there were these couple ladies who just cannnot use PC. They have entered this company while they were having bubble. They are working in the office but they cannot use PC and they get very high payment and assured post
On the other hand, young and unstable workers are working in very low wages. No matter how he/she do have skills, it doesn't matter It is totally like Communist! So if you work or not work, it really do not matter
I mean, before govt ask too much to the young, we are totally like DO SOMETHING!
Many of already seen a lot of employees come to work doing NOTHING Even boss asked them to do the work, they can't even use PC so who does their jobs? Young people do so
Before asking young people too much, Cut Them Off, idiot!
I think Japan is going to fail because not many young people have no motivation anymore like our ancestors once did few decades ago.
We have very high suicide rate of the young people and it is still going upwards It is funny that old people do not want to pass away so quickly and they are very healthy and living in longevity
Those who mainly decided spoiled brat policy which is called YUTORI policy is basically 40 - 60 years now. They were born after the war and always saw the economic growth just following seniors who survived war and was so tough man / so deciplined woman who suffered porvety. Theri child , however. lacks ability , is arrogant and when this generation took over the main position of politics, businesses,etc. Japanese economy has collapse and they just taking money away from us young people by means of pension system. How cruel !! The cancer of this today's Japanese decline is mainly them.
elderly people save too much and stop the flow of the economy. I think fraud targetting erderly woman is a little effective (just a little) Japanese live too much . just die 80 in average.
Polls are gradually moving toward to the right people
The young generations are starting to get so exausted with govt today and obviously there been a quite change. Not inside the govt but to the young generation
>>738 I know. Do you know how it is so rediculous to have immigration started? Most people oppose to it but govt is just rushing with no reason Who knows? We always have no clue about what they are doing
We do not have enough money to look over the old people but some have to even sacrifice his/her job, not many people are wealthy enough to hire them Also govt is taking away the jobs from domestic people, making wages so low
We are asking for euthanasia but govt won't allow them but many old people are becoming dementia and it is nothing but a disaster for the both, individual and the family
There are many family murder and suicide going on regarding about dementia from some decades ago, but still govt just do nothing about it They are rich and wealthy people, who do not understand how normal people are living
>>740 Do you remember when The Democratic Party of Japan gave out money for the family who have children? At that time, there were many votes by young generation, I guess
This time, LDP made housewives work and banned the deduction so I consider that there are tremendous attention to Abe Administration and politics
>>743 yeah, we all people whether young or old , woman or man should pay heed to it. (there are lots of young people who even doesnt know about the plan banning deduction of wives. )
And yet, I have no choice but to say it's a moron to puch women to work without concrete plan to raise the rate of birth. At this rate more and more people are getting old and fewer and fewer babies are born. I have rather diffensive opinion about politics and diplomacy and supported Abe administration, but these days, I cannot support it ( dont deny strongly) and have a doubt.
>>744 I have thought that citizens were just so silly enough to switch the administrations so many times I was just so stunned by such an absurdity They all blame govt and indeed they should be but at that time, I kind of lost some hope in my own country as well
>>745 it is natural to switch administration in the last several years because of the failure of LDP and big failure of DPL And LDP will last more then 7 years I guess. but it's absurd to give DPL about 350 seats even though LDP had done unexcusable things. DPL at that time made a manufest that obviously couldn't be done ( I was high schooler but I could tell it was impossible) and it's reaction to the disaster of 3.11 was terrible, high yen of 75 and low stock price of about 8000 was horrible and make Japan harder country to live. At that time when lots of people voted for LDP , Japanese people was so so so so absurd just taking the news of media for granted.
I'm going to go over to his place. It's been three days so I'm happy to see him tonite. Once I start thinking I want to break up anymore, he always asks me to hang out! It's like he's able to read my mind! But I assume he kinda perceived the changes in our relationship. He probably got the feeling that I'm getting bored of him...
Oh my gosh my feet smell so bad. I know wearing sneakers without socks cause smelly feet but I can't help it. I have only a few socks and my room is messy so it's hard to find a pair on a busy morning.
>>754 yeah , I'm still an amature-virgin , and I know that the difference between normal virgin and amature virgin is not much big, but amature virgin and those who have sex with their girlfrends is so big
I didn't use any codoms. She might used pills of something. I think the moment my penis feel pain or itch , I'll go to the hospital but I dont feel anything and my son is as good condition as ever. The soapland I went is expensive ( 40,000 yen in 120 minutes) so there's little possibility that she's infected with some sexual diseases
>>759 I see. I don't know much about sexually transmitted deseases, but it can take some days until you feel pain or abnormality in your penis, so you have to keep tabs on your condition.
And remeber, you don't feel any pain even if you are infected with HIV virus, the cause of AIDS. I understand you wanted to insert your penic without a condom but I strongly recommend you use it next time you screw a girl. In my opininon, how much you pay doen't guarantee that you won't get infected with sexually transmitted deseases.
No one really pointed out but I did not understand why Dr Obokata cried during the press conference I thought she was a unit leader and she is over 30 yrs old
I feel little pity for what happened but I felt pretty humiliated watching that It will be broadcasted abroad
>>761 In half a year or so, Dr. Obokata has to say good by to the title of "Dr." I wouldn't call her Dr., now that I know how she got PhD.
I follow many Japanese scientists on Twitter and that helps me understand how what Obokata did is abnormal, unbelievable and unforgivable in science community. If I didn't read their tweets, I would have reacted the same way as many men here in Japan, thinking that she's innocent and what she did is trivial things.
I also read a blog where they accuse Obokata and other Waseda PhDs of coping and paste in thier PhD thesis. The latest news for the administrator of the blog is Vacanti stole some images for his paper published in 2001. This could be a huge blow that will make him quit Harvard.
Some people suspect Obokata is a Psychopath. She fits the description of the mental desease perfectly. But for accurate diagnosis, a doctor has to interview her face to face, which wouldn't happen, I guess unless her family sends her to a clinic.
>>760 I got it. I'll keep a close eye on my precious son.
You may think I'm too optimistic, but HIV virus is weak to infect so I dont mind so much. hahaha I'm glad my first time I screwed my penis into pussy is bare-penis and I can finished her pussy.
Obokata Haruko is shame for everyone in Japan. Not only did she copy lots of sentences but also fabricate her thesis. Her action let other countries think that Japanese lack moral. How disgraceful. It might be a little too radical , but I think she deserves death penalty. This is not only her problem, but every Japanese problem !!
Starting today, new semester has begun and class has started in my university. Unfortunately I have no friends and I major in the subject that doesn't interest me at all so my record is always poor , not being able to answer teacher's questions and every time I can't do that, it's so embarrassing that I blush a little. It's tough training for me , but I'll definitely graduate from this place while getting high score on TOEIC and get some credencials so that I can enter as good a company as possible. yeah, thinking differently this situation is a little fun. hahaha
Alright I quit. I give up everything. However hard I try, it doesn't reward me. I feel miserable and am reminded how stupid and useless and helpless I am. I've had enough of feeling like shit. Thanks. Excuse me for living. Goodbye
I don't care about anything anymore. I feel so exasperated about myself. Why am I so useless? What was I born for? There's no point of living. I should give up everything, even my life. There's no way to save me from this endless cycle of despair.
>>782 You are a world-class poo manufacture machine. That alone is a sure sign you deserve living. I'm a third-rated poo manufacture machine, by the way. I'm worse than you.
>>781 That shows many people are deceived by her press conference. The more you know how she manipulated the paper, the more you are disgusted by her.
That sounds like I have a world record for the biggest poop. Well that's not what I mean. I mean I'm the most useless human being that's only good for useless things.
I decided to take notes of words and phrases I learned Every day. I'll keep them in a notebook so that I can review them afterwards. Well this is what I've been trying to do for a long time but I always forget about it in the end and stop doing it. So my new goal is to keep this habit. I'll also watch one episode of family guy on Hulu Every day
>>788 A part of me think it's good to take notes of new words and phrases you just encounter, but doing so takes time so another part of me think it's better to keep reading instead of spending the time on taking notes.
>>790 Yeah I understand. It's really time consuming. If you don't take notes and just keep going on, You'll never learn New words and phrases. I think the time and energy will deserve it.
Sorry I forgot to type "but" between consuming and if. These linking words are very important. If you miss it your whole Paragraph Sometimes Lose the meaning
>>791 I know the benefit of doing so but currently, I don't take notes of them. I try to look up new words and pharases in dictionary, though. but that's just it.
>>793 Oh yeah That's good Sometimes you run into WordS That Your more likely not to use ever again. It's just a waste of time and energy to memorize those words. So maybe it's the best way to select words that you should remember and you Shouldn't
>>795 I haven't read lately. I've been more into movies and TV shows. Like I mentioned in an earlier Post, family guy Will be my favorite for a while . And I watched some Japanese Animes Dabbed into English
By the way I'm not typing Right now. I'm speaking to Siri and It is Automatically Typing what I said. I think this is also a good practice for Both speaking and writing. Of course sometimes it can't recognize what I say and I have to Correct it myself. So it kind of takes longer than you type. But it helps my speaking a lot. I highly recommend This practice Using Siri Or whatever It is If you have an iPhone or An android
>>796 Ah, I see. It's not easy to reach native level proficiency of English. We as an English learner have so many things to do to improve four skills, reading, listening, writing and speaking. And the more you are advanced in English, the harder it is to recognize how you are improved.
>>775 just wait I give a damn whtere you are useful or not, but I want you to be a person who looks this thread and type something. Thies thread is my tool for killing time and for improving my English ability a little.
>>800 When I was a university student, I have eaten a Hamberger for lunch in men's room twice or so. This is what's called "Benjo-meshi." You know the reason why. I recognize how hard your college life is without friends, but keep focused on what you want to do, which I think is studying English, and survive for the rest of your college life.
>>801 you're my colleage ! I've experienced a lunch time in the restroom too , it smelling so disgusting because of the poop the fat guy in the next room produced from his anal. Maybe it might be geri poop. It was trauma for me. I ate geri-smelled rice ball and geri-smelled green tea. Since then , I stopped benjo-meshi and eat in the student cafeteria. Fortunaly there are 5 cafeterias in my university and there are lots of people who eat lunch alone so I'm fine !! Anyway I'll endure this hard training and get out of here with my dignity and stinked poop memory !! Thank you for your encouragement .
I definitely think that it wasn't only Dr Obokata's fault but her press conference was a bit too emotional rather than convencing I do believe that maybe STAP exists and that they need to research once again but I doubt her being a scientist. She told to the press that she was too amateur or not well educated, something like that, but it was not a good thing to say
She only had to explain what might really had gone wrong
Although, people are just so silly There are still a log of people saying that "STAP cell do not exist" and that is also not that smart thing to say Well, they think that refusing STAP cell is smart thing to do and accusing those who consider about the STAP cell
We do not know where the evidence are from the press conference, eventhough she explained that she saw them 200 times without notes but that does not fully guarantee that there is no existance of STAP cell
There are some saying, "give her a chance to prove it" but these silly refusers are pulling everything
It is so good to have STAP cell to cure many diseases and also making clone in the time of food crisis, but they really do not care about those things but really enjoy booing her and Riken without thinking much
Even though there is a STEP, We Mongolian will make many more gels. It's a first STEP to let people be westernizing for the field of desert to forest. STAP theory is useful to establish prolific land. Otherwise, ruthless land that people don't want. Please dubstep and Kazakhstan.
>>804 Scientifically, STAP cell exist only in Obokata's (and a few people around her) imagination. The idea of how it's made is fabulous but without scientific evidence, it's exisitance is the same as kappa, Tsuchinoko, Snow Man.
It would be wonderful and benefitial to human beings if STAP cells existed. But scientists around the world quit trying to make it by following the protocol on the paper written by Obokata, because they think it's waste of time, meaning they don't believe STAP cell exist. In the science community, STAP cells is pipedream now.
There seems to be one or two fools in this thread. Of couse, as one Japanese, I want STAP cell to do exist because, if so , it's an honor for all Japanese. But, there are quite a few things that make Obokata's remark so doubtful. Obokata said in press conference that she'd completed STAP cells about 200 times, but they say it can't be done 200 times in such a short time and lots of capable scientists in NATURE and Riken cannot produce STAP cell yet. You may surely know Obokata said it was so so easy to make STAP cell , then why can nobody exept Obokata produce STAP cells yet? And she'd made quite immature thesis that even students like me in the university never do. As a member of Riken who lead scientific achievement in Japan, Obokata isn't qualified .
Well what I want to do say is that we cannot say with 100% possibility that STAP cell exists. But Otokata deserves some kind of punishment and critisism.
Oh it is very scary world of many mad scientists (>_<)youuuu
I am not even related to science since I was in high school but it seems terrible because everyone is blaming on her I thought that she might not be qualified to be an unit leader but isn't this just too much for her to handle?
No, that isn't much for to handle. Do you say the same thing to Samuragochi who deceived lots of people that it's just fine if he aplogize in press conference and what he've done is over ? It is not child play, you see, it follows big responsibity.
>>816 Some people say in the thread that she would not be able to get married anymore but I don't think so. There are many fans, mostly guys She is cute, smart and very charming so I think she has no problem at all
>>819 I agree with you 100%. I hope she gets a happy married life and that her children become sceientis and get a discovery worhty of the Novel Prize.
She certainly has adorable face and voice but it's not problem here you morons. Maybe one person in this thread acts two people and praise Obokata but I see through you.
>>822 She seems to be a very smart person so I think her child is also so sweet as well By the way, in Japan, it is very hard to get married after women become 33yrs old She is like 30yrs old so maybe it was good for her, in a long term I don't think career is exactly everything. She can speak English and seems very sociable so she can marry with someone nice and understanding At the same time, she can study other subjects and start working to make another career She is still very young
Some people suspect she's a psycopath. Even if that's not the case, she is a person who lies without hesitation for her own benefits. Maybe she doesn't even realize when she lies, and that's why she looks confident when she tells lies. I think marrying with her is too risky. If you get married with a woman like her, you will end up living a disastrous life.
Abe Administration called mothers to work but it is such a big deal First of all, we have got not much kindergarden Also the juvinile crime rates are gradually getting high and mothers cannot leave their children alone, like they did few decades ago When we were young, we played like everywhere because it was safe outside but today mothers do have to be with kids all the time and it is very stressful
Also many workers leave to the cities and no one really stay in the rural areas. We used to raise kids, living with grandparents, parents, and children all together in a house but now we are totally different
Once we leave a working place, it is hard to get hired again with a good environment So many double income family, they are fortunate ones who did not have to leave their own hometown and live with either of their parents together, so that grandparents look after kids
Yeah, it's well possible Abe's plan makes the problem of aged society and low-rate birth even more serious. In 50 years Japan will weaken dramatically , so young people like me is so worried about today's situation.
There were many guys in the past who were not a first child Usually, family keeps the first two boys but they gave away boys to other family without hesitation like today when they got married My great grandfather was 5th son, and before that was 4th son We only had girls so they asked for a guy to get married and have our names, instead of their last name
Now there are only few kids so there is no Masuo-san left This is why many women have hard time getting married with a guy
>>836 I know. We used to be like that Nowadays, before couples get married, a guys mom tell him, " don't change your last name! " eventhough he is a second child
Our main family is now 34th and like husband's like 3th or 4th Is there any worth of keeping their last name?
Many foreigners just don't know that Japan is a woman dominated society Eventhough, her husband looks strong, actually mom is really strong Mostly women are so quiet but when it comes to family matter, they are strong and so rigid
Today, like there are only child or family with siblings only so most women have hard time finding the right one, you know
Basically, the problem is Japan of Japan is not reflected to society well these days. tell me what's the merit of getting woman who has plastic surgery.
I don't understand the plastic either without a reason I mean, if you're like an actress then it might be good but normal people with plastic? They have to work hard to maintain that thing
if you like male idols, just go to the thread related to it. there's no need for you to stard the conversation about idols right off the bad out of nowhere. right ? I don't intend to force you , of couse ,but it whold be good if you refrained from saying foolish things and typing foolish English with bad grammar. I recommend you that you should like poop instead of Kamenashi and name yourself Kuso-Girl. You know, what a good and cute name !
You cannot relate to anything. You feel nothing. I would hate to be like you. Unfeeling, numb and dumb. Seriously I hate people like you. What have you brought to the table? nothing Dont be so high and mighty.
It's a lucky day for me today. My particle Rising-Sun is connected by this beams on top. I am cotinuing to do with it, but still, they stop laughing. It's a pleasure to have gone to the U.S. However, it's more pleasure to live in Japan.
I read detective conan manga in english. the poorly translated conan uses she/her or he/his/him when he talks about murderers while still searching, so I automatically narrow down suspects.
From next year of March, I'll seriously start the jub-hunting. I, with lonely life and no friends in college has big trouble gathering imformation related to jub-hunting. My record in class is also poor. All I have is the 790 score on TOEIC, BOKI 2 grade , TAKKENN ( real-estate credencial). I'm not paticular about big company, I just want to enter the company I can be proud of myself and to graduate from university safely .
In short, there are too many things that make me worry about lots of things. If I had someone who can consult (say, friends, girlfriend) , my uneasiness would have vanished a little. I've never thought one's life has gotten so hard wihtout any friends before I enrolled the university.
I don't think that you "try" to make a friend It's like meeting someone who you can really talk with without thinking much about how he/she thinks about you
I got nice friends but I have this deep depression that makes me hard to speak or communicate with others while having very hard time I really think that my friends really don't mind about that but I do, and I really need complete silence or calmness so I don't make many contact
It is always so hard to stay in the same condition as possible My work is usually 9-6pm and if I exceed over that, I have really hard time controlling my depression. Couple of my ancestors passed out with suicide and I think this is heredity related
I had bfs in my life but it didn't work out right It will be better to stay alone
I wouldn't use depression as an excuse to stop making friends. It actually should be your prime motivation to make friends so that they make you feel all right. It is your duty to yourself to find them. I hate people who give up trying, honestly, I couldn't care less for people who wallow in self-pity.
You're too sensitive to be hurt by someone. This world, no, human life is filled with getting hurt , It will kill you mentally if you feel so sarrow or angry every time something unconvinient thing happens to you. There's no time to dwell on the past too much, only we can do is to reflect on our action and to rest just a little, to never look behind for a long time.
>>880 what the fuck !? don't be greedy. life goes on. so why don't you sleep more ? I'll be routine for you.
I tried to turn your Hiragana into English but I just get what "routine" means ? The meaning of the word of routine is "set-work" or "something you do over and over" . I just cant understand. sorry for my poor English ability.
The g translation to 880: Ho wa~tsu to za fu ~akku! ? Donto byi guri i de ~i. Ra ifu go ̄zu on. Sō, fu ~owai don chi ~yuu suri ̄ pu mo a ̄. A iru bi ̄ru ̄te ~in fu ~o ̄ yu
>>876 does your boyfiend suit you ? is your work wearing you out too much ? are you trying to find your hobby or something that's so interesting ?
not need to answer these quesutions. but you have to have a hear-to-heart talk with yourself. depression comes from an escape from the self-conversation, which is called 自問自答.
When you find yourself in the wrong universe. Stifled by the darkness. If you cannot leave that place, let it be. Let there be darkness. Instead turn on the life switch in you Shine a light outwards While darkness is chasing you Run for the light as fast as you can.
Do you understand me? Only you can find the switch in you. And turn it on.
Can a non-Japanese speak proper Japanese? No. Can a non-English speak proper English? No. Besides "proper" ahould be a measurable concept. What is the "limits of proper"? You need to define it.
>>870 Did you manage to go back to UK? Or you have lost your way during the trip and still have been wandering in the woods in rural Japan? If the latter is the case, don't hesitate to tell me what I can do for you.
>>898 Yes, I am still wandering through Aokigahara, trying to find an exit. Fortunately there are ropes hanging from the trees, which help amplify the wi-fi so I can post.
>>898 Actually, I returned back to the UK on July 3rd, though I've forgotten where my story ended last time. Think my last post was from Misen itself. After that, I travelled from Hiroshima to Sapporo by train (almost a big mistake). Then Sapporo to Tokyo again. My penfriend's family then suggested we visit to a ryokan at Yamanakako, and to explore the surrounding area, which was incredibly nice of them. After returning to Tokyo, someone else wanted to show me around Kamakura, so that's how I spent my final day.
I would never want to visit Aokigahara in my entire life That is the weirdest spot in Japan with many ghosts are seen everywhere I'd heard that compus will not work there do to high magnetism
You should go visit Koyasan, and Iga ninjya town It was really amazing there with very nice air
>>902 Though I did visit Fujisan, we didn't visit Aokigahara. We went to Stage 5 of the mountain, and surrounding areas such as Ōwakudani, Narusawa Ice Cave, and a natural spring whose name I've forgotten...
As for Iga, I really want to visit next time. When I was in Kyoto, wandering around Nijō-jō, some elementary schoolchildren asked me several questions, and wanted a photo. Afterwards, they and their teacher gave me a leaflet about Iga. As for Koyasan, I hadn't considered it. But since it's now a recommendation, I'll have a visit, thanks!
My father comes from Okinawa. He and his brother think Japan was evil in WW2. They have leftism. When I go to Okinawa, I always hate them. They cannot tell fact from fiction. I don't like Okinawa but like the nature and the foods.
Then, when I lived in Yamanashi, I often went to Aokigahara. I didn't think it is a special place. I, certainly, saw many signs saying "Please remember your precious persons and take care of your family. " Whenever I saw them, I laughed. If family is good, people (not all) won't commit suicide. The signs only drive them to despair more and more. "I don't have a good family. Now I have nothing to regret in the world. Good-bye."
>>909 Yeah!Me, too! I often buy "一番採りもずく". It's about 300 yen. I think it is very reasonable and easily available. I can buy it at any supermarkets. On the other hand, "Mozuku su(もずく酢)" packed for a set of three is very expensive. One ”一番絞りもずく" can make a lot of homemade "Mozuku su". However, I don't make so and I always make it tenpura. It is very delicious.
I don't see Gurukun in Kanto. I sometimes eat it at Okinawan reataurant. People often say fish of southern seas are not delicious, but the fish in Okinawa is delicious, too.
>>907 Ahh, I'd like to see Okinawa too. However, I had a rail pass to use, so wanted to make the most of it. There were a few people to visit, too. Will hopefully get the chance next time. Is that your favourite place?
>>906 Kyoto was a beautiful city, and the outskirts were really nice. Unfortunately, I didn't see much else of Kansai. Not enough time...
>>913 You really don't have much time to see everything there I have gone to see museums and temples with my friend couple days but we didn't have enough time There are things that our interest seperated so we decided to split and gather later. I'd extended my visit and gone to many places but that wasn't enough at all. So very interesting
>>912 Umi-budou is a little bit salty even if I wash it, but delicious! There's three cubes of Tofuyou in the refrigerator. It goes well wiht Awamori. The awamori of mine contains red peppers. I put it into the bottle. It is usually used in cooking, but I drink it.
When you eat Okinawa soba at Okinawa cooking shop, you can see a bottle of awamori with red peppers to add it to the soba. I like it very much, but that may mot be the proper way of drinking it.
>>900-901 Good to hear that you are not living in a cave in a moutain somewhere in Japan and not living on wild rabbits and snakes with your beard grown as far down as to your chest. Talking about Kamakura, I saw this image posted on Twitter the other day. Never knew there are doors on its back and they are sometimes open for that matter for ventilation or something. https://twitter.com/rokkunn72/status/452385167542198272
>>931 The deer looked pretty tasty. But they seem to eat anything. If I had a beard, I could feed them with that.
Ahh yes, the Daibutsu. That was one of the last places we went, and he had unfortunately just closed for the day. If we were half an hour earlier, we would have been able to climb in. It was an interesting place! I took a few photos... ...but my ninja level is too low on 2ch, so I can't show you them...
So much for the food conversation. I can't understand it at all even though I'm Japanese. It might be quite natural to go to lots of places if I had friends or girlfriend, but I don't have either. So, I have few experience from the trip. I just envy you. I'd got a driver license two years ago, but I don't have car, so when I go back to my old house , I always borrow the car from mon and go to lots of places, but my experience is poor yet. I went to Nikko, Tokyo-sky-tree, Nagano prefecture, Ushiku- Daibutu ( it was so big and has beautiful nature, I recommend it)
but my trip is always with nobody............ I guess my college life will end without shining memory. Thies world is unfair, but it's my fault to not find my friends in earnest. Sorry, I just want to puke my uneasiness.
>>932 I don't know anything about the "ninja level" but I think it can vary. One day 2chan says my ninja level is too low for me to post a link , and another day, a few days later I manage to post a link. So just keep trying if you need to put a link, then someday you somehow manage to post a link.
>>933 Have you thought of going on a trip with strangers? If you hope, I think you can look for travel companion on the Internet. I just thought there might be someone who don't have any friends in University but don't want to travel alone.
>>934 I can post longer messages now, but still can't manage links. Once I can, I'll make you all suffer from my photographs. I'll keep trying though, as you suggest. In fact, I'll test it again now... (apparently not yet...)
>>933 Actually, >>934's suggestion is interesting. Travelling with strangers can have its good and bad points, but it's a good life experience, I think. When I went to Hiroshima, a very kind resident of this thread showed me around his city. We went on a road trip to Izumo one day, and also to Miyajima.
>>934>>935 Traveling with strangers? Wow, you give me bold advice, but it seems so interesting although I can't get along well with that strangers, yes, I will surely gain good experience. As I said, I have no friends, and that's because my communication skill is not high , but it's interesting idea, so , I guess it's worth giving it a shot.
>>936 You'll probably find that your case isn't unique. There will be many people with few or no friends, wanting to find people to talk to and get along with. If you have similar interests, such as where you'd like to see, I think it would make communication a little easier.
Also, thank you for introducing those places. I didn't know about the Ushiko-Daibutsu!
You foreigner can't use this thread freely because of your location being outside Japan ? If you live in Japan (maybe, even though you don't live in Japan) you can use "Jane Style ", specific software to use 2ch more in handy. First, you download that software and start it Second, you find "学問・文系" from the list on the left of this software's window, Third, you find ENGLISH from the list inside "学問・文系". Forth, you find "Chat in English" from the menu at the center of this software's window
>>933 It's not unnatural to travel without a companion. Having other people around can really restrict you when you travel. Certain things are more fun with others, but you can be more adventurous by yourself. Rather than travel WITH strangers, travel by yourself and meet strangers. If you stay at youth hostels you can often meet people to hang out with, but then you can still avoid them when you prefer to do things alone.
>>936 If I remember correctly, there's already an app or online service by which you can find someone you eat lunch with. Just to think that you could find someone to travel with on the net if you want makes you feel easier, I think. Don't be too pessimistic.
>>939 I see, thanks for your practical advice for me now. yeah , you can say that again that having others occasionally gets in my way during the trip , but I felt strongly wanting to have companion ,when I went to Nikko. There are so many people with friends, with girl/boyfriends and I felt so so so miserable. hmm, hostels !! that's so refreshing for me. Interesting !! All right, I won't be pessmistic during thinking a way to find friends whom I can go on a trip with.
I always think why the foreigners who comment in JAPANTODAY or reddit, and so on, are so idiot? They are almost all anti-Japanese people or ignorants. Why can they tell fact from false? I wonder when they will notice that Korean are enemy to world peace? Enlgish is very defective language because they cannot do logical thinking.
1) History is a filed of science. Fact is fact. False is false. 2) If you are told that you are wrong about something, you must put them off until the truth is made clear. 3) If a history is wrong, the history should be rewritten . "Historical revisionism" is not by nature evil.
Traveling with a stranger seems so stressful rather than fun
I had gone to trip with many friends when I was back in my college but we had some split as well. That was fun but spending time with certain people just give too much stress to each other
It is certainly so good to find the right one though Someone with the same interest and personality match
For example, we had gone to skiing and this person had his own log house nearby We were just so happy to ski but someone this really irritating girl started to annoy me and my friend, not intentionally though
She said that only few can go to skiing and she will be in charge or something and we should stay in a log house and we're totally like "what?" If we knew that before than it would be so much better to go to part-time job after college
Then she started to annoy us again when we had gone to different trip together She is totally becoming a bitch, a control freak
My friend and I were interested in seeing historical museums and explore around the city during day but she started to say that those are waste of time or something and we said, so why don't we just split? (There were like 9 people in a group) Then she started to tell us that we don't have cooperation or something and we were totally so upset about the ski incident but we just followed them because she was way too pushy
Although, we had this split, it is really nice memory though When my friend and I get together, we keep on chatting about those incidents on and on. Like how we felt at that time. Wasn't fair at all and how annoying and bitchy it was
Either the good and bad, it is quite a good memory to talk about now
I think there is someone who suits you the best without too much stress I mean, it is nice to be around with others for just a day or few hours but there aren't a lot of people who suits you best to spend few days
Even your siblings annoy you sometimes and it is very good to be around with your best friend rather than spending time with your family
The good thing about family is that eventhough we fight so much, we get together fine
Although, after few years past, it is kind of funny to realize that maybe I was pretty selfish or maybe brat lol
I was so mad when my friend told me that I am not that cooperative but now I noticed that was a plain fact! lol Although, she was the same
I have changed my number because I was so pissed but I heard that she was asking about me so maybe I'll contact her soon maybe have some reunion after couple years past
>>948 Sorry, but since we don't know one another very well, I must turn you down. I hope that your heart can find someone else one day.
>>946 It sounds a little like she was holding you hostage! You're right though. It can be hit or miss when it comes to strangers. In both Osaka and Kyoto, it was difficult to get along with the people I met there. Kyotochan (or maybe Kyoto Nee-san) didn't like anyone or anything. Americans, British, Germans, Italians, French, Russians, Chinese, Koreans. She didn't like people from Kyoto, and didn't like people who can breathe fire. She didn't particularly like pork or shrimp. It was difficult to feel positive while talking.
A reunion might be fun. People can change and grow up a bit. Or it could be another adventure.
>>952 Sometimes, I am so liked by many people but I definitely like to be free I do not know why I meet many control freaks in my life, both male and female. They love to give me some orders
I like them until they show that side
Although, my best friend do love to be free as well and we get along fine so that was really fortunate for me
>>948 You should distinguish 外人 with 害人. 害人 think Nanking, Comfort women, and 731 are true hisotries. They can tell fact from fiction. 害人 also think Japan was evil during WW2. They are enemies of world peace.
My hate is general, I detest all men; Some because they are wicked and do evil, Others because they tolerate the wicked, Refusing them the active vigorous scorn Which vice should stimulate in virtuous minds
The neural correlates of hate have been investigated with an fMRI procedure. In this experiment, people had their brains scanned while viewing pictures of people they hated. The results showed increased activity in the middle frontal gyrus, right putamen, bilaterally in the premotor cortex, in the frontal pole, and bilaterally in the medial insular cortex of the human brain.(wiki)
There is this news going on about Japan having Casino I really think it is good thing because people spend money here but I really hope they go to the major cities instead of rural areas We want things peace and quiet here
Look at the major cities, for example Tokyo They got way too many people over there When I had to take a train, I was so suprised to see a lot of people riding a train every single time
Foreigners know Korean residents in Japan runs pachinko stores, don't they? Thas is a money gathering system from Japanese people. I don't like foreigners think pacinko is a Japan's culture.
>>971 We all know Pachinko is Koreans but it used to help employment for the people who has lost their job after WWII
Also my ex bf was addicted to Pachinko and those people are just so crazy but they do exist
I have not noticed that for such a long time I had no clue what he was really doing because I had no relative who were addicted with gambling and he was still young and I used to think Pachinko is not for young people who doesn't earn much money
It was lucky for me to get seperated with that dumb guy forever I will never trust a gambler in my life. Like NEVER! Although, I don't oppose because I don't care as long as they don't mess with my life and I don't get involved with addicted people
I certainly didn't care about pachinko, but I noticed that pachinko money made Japan worse. Mr.Hatoyama said Japan is not only for Japanese people. I understand it very much now.
>>974 That speech was not quite understandable to many people I had been to Gym at that moment, watching news on a tv, and there were a lot of people and a stir ran everywhere
I do not know right or wrong about existance of Pachinko though It is just like knowing there are people like my ex, who are addicted
Talk about my ex. It was just like the encounter with an alien He is Japanese but I did not really had a chance to see a gambler, or addicted people for over 20yrs I really did not know what was really going on and after we'd seperated, I knew about the addiction. It kind of made me realize that there are whole a lot of different people on a planet
He was nice though. We get along well. It is just like if he hadn't had that bad habit. Poor thing
I hate him lying about the usage of money, not working hard for both of us, you know, so many quarrels over those things made me feel so tired in the end
On the other hand, I have learned, there is nothing that people can do about it It's like sinking with this person even if one's trying so hard It is not helping anyone no good I am so glad that I made a right choice, took me sometimes to realize though
do you realize the fact that you caught a man who's good for nothing because of your character being cheap ? You probably know the expression of "birds of a feather flock together" which is expressed "類は友を呼ぶ” in Japanese. All you say is discontent about your ex , but what you need to do the most is reflecting on your own action. are you trying to live alone from now on with no child ? I think even though there are lots of people's way of life these days, it would be so so miserable.
