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

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

i've just begun to watch a tv series called "a little house on the prairie."
it's so moving and enlightening (at least for those who want to learn
about the core of the american cultures) that i almost can't stop wathcing it.
as a matter of fact, i can't understand all of the conversations in it.
nevertheless, i'm definitely sure this is a must-see tv series
for learners of english and american cultures.

Japanese starve for speaking with the foreigner, therefore when they saw writing "アメリカ人" or "チリ人", they make a response greedly .
Moreover, though Japanease make a response to the remark of the same Japanese as carping at a fault, they never carps at a fault to the foreigner's remark.
Speaking with the foreigner for the Japanese is honor act as if they speek with the TV entertainer of their yearning.
If you see Japanese groins at that time, you will find to be wet in the combustor.

My stereotype to Latin girls are they have big boobs.
They have nice suntans. They wear a thong.

Your country is thin and looooooooong.

8:チリ人
09/03/13 02:22:01

Well, all that its somewhat true, except for the thong thing.
And yeah, Chile is thin and long, thats because we have almost every landscapes.
We have the most arid desert in the world (Atacama) and a part of Antartica.

10:チリ人

There are some rivalries, yep, we have fought a war 120 years ago between Peru and Bolivia.
But to be honest they arent really that hard with those things, we are much friends now.
At least much more than the Asian world and his China/Korea/Japan conflicts.

By the way, in Peru the Japanese community is very strong, they even have a Japanese president, Fujimori.
I guess you maybe know something about that story.

11:名無しさん@英語勉強中
09/03/13 03:29:55
>>10
Yeah, some people emigrated to Brasil, Peru and other Latin American
countries.
I know about Alberto Fujimori.
He lived in Japan for a while not to be arrested by Peruvian government,
or something like that. But in the end he was forced to come back to
Peru and were arrested, right? I don't know much about the story, though.

You speak English and have Internet access. You must be elite in Peru.
Don't get offended but Peru isn't a wealty country so not many people
have Internet access... You must be from a rich family.

You're saying foreign posters with trips get attention because we're like celebrities?
In a way that's true, but isn't it beneficial for you guys? I don't mean to be an attention whore
and I didn't think I was pandering for it. I'm not to sure I'm comfortable with making "groins wet in the combuster".

>>3
That is a classic although I can't say I've read/seen it.
The only things I learned about Chile were Incas and Spanish colonization and those were under
broader topics such as colonization and indigenous civilizations in the Americas.

>>11
Im not from Peru! im from Chile, things are better in Chile at least in political stability and economical ways.
More than 40% of the population in Chile has Cable Internet. Im middle class i guess.
And yes, Fujimori got some problems with human rights, i dont know too much about it because im not from Peru, but he is still somewhat famous.

By the way, i heard that also Chile is "famous" in Japan because of a whore... yeah, a whore, called Anita Alvarado, who works in Japan and now is millionaire.

15:名無しさん@英語勉強中
09/03/13 03:59:16

>Im not from Peru!

lol Sorry about my mixing up Chile with Peru. I know you are from Chile
but when you started talking about Peru, I mixed them up! More people than I expected
have fast Internet access.

>Anita Alvarado

Haha. Some years back, Japanese media covered the news about her.
A city official who's said to be Anita's husband sacrfice lots of money to her.
The money wasn't his but public money. So he was arrested, if I'm not wrong.

When I heard the news, I was full of questions because Anita doesn't look
attractive enough for a man to give her lots of money.
I don't think Anita loves her husband although her husband seemed to
love her. Anita just wanted Japan money. Their marrage was fake, I think.

Yeah. I think it's a good idea to change your handle name not to confuse
people here. >>12 has used アメリカ人 as his HN for quite a long time.
If he changes his HN to Home Stay Advisor or Scatology Major or whatever,
then you can stick to アメリカ人 as your HN, though.

20:名無しさん@英語勉強中
09/03/13 05:25:03
If you wish to have a name, it should be recognizable and identifiable.
アメリカ人 would be too ordinary a name to be distinguished.

21:アメリカ人 ◆oUpRKPX5A2
09/03/13 11:07:36
>>19
Do you think I should? Scatology/Scientology/PantySniffer would be an impressive handle.

I'm so sorry btw, someone asked about my kanji quiz tomorrow(ah!) and I totally forgot to reply.
The AP test in May only tests recognition of kanji because for the writing portion you use a word processor like MS Word.
Also I doesn't test kanji in isolation, only in context (i.e. whole words). So that's the format of my quizzes in class as well.
The trouble is then I don't learn the 音読み and 訓読み very well, just the reading for whatever it is in the specific vocab word.
We do learn the stroke orders for each kanji in class but it's not emphasized.

Ah! I have a calculus quiz as well!
>>969 from the last thread
I'm learning Java now in school and I want to major in Computer Science next year (my college acceptance letters arrive soon).

It's first comes, first served basis so I don't think you need to
change your HN. But if you think a HN should speak for itself what you are,
then the candidates of a HN are very eloquent and good to choose from.

The YouTube link that Tennessean gave us in the previous thread took me to one of the most awesome
blogs I've seen in a while. At first, I had no idea if this guy was all serious or just insane, but sort of
came to the conclusion that the blog itself is a huge joke that is filled with irony, sarcasm, and satire.
Considering the fact there are so many Korean people actually suffering under oppresion and tyranny there,
it's not all that funny, but was pretty thought provoking as well. I liked the entry "True Face Of Japan ". lol

Are you studying Computer Science now?
I'm also researching a way of packing a lot of information in a bit.
Though it is impossible by the routine ways, but it might be possible by the quantum theory.
But I never get any good inspiration.
Therefore, I want your advice of it.
If I hit upon a way of it, can I get Nobel prize?

I've read previous thread.
And I didn't know that "la ki su ta" is said " Lucky Star" by foreign countries!
Isn't Animation for adult Gorgo 13th or something? lol

I think " Sa za e sa n " is the best Animation text to learn Japanese.
URLリンク(www.youtube.com)
Because it describes just general Japanese family,
and even now this TV viewership is more than 20%, every old and young Japanese knows it,
and I saw a book which is written by English and Japanese in bookstore.
I think it's a good text for Japanese English learners too.

By the way Japan has deserts too. Most famous desert in Japan is " Tottoli desert hill".
The place is in Tottoli Prefecture. And There are local specialty foods there,
such as Asian pear and lakkyou.

28:real yakibuta ◆rZ/DxCHAR.
09/03/14 00:44:19
Oh. " a book " is a Sazaesan cartoon book.

29:名無しさん@英語勉強中

Tottori desert hill isn't categorized as a desert.
One of the big defference between desert and desert hill is precipitation.
Tottori gets a moderate amount of rain as well as the other prefectures and it even snows in winter.
Actually, there is no desert in Japan.

One of the sales pitches of ipod touch is Wi-Fi wireless internet connection
and you can access to the Internet on the road.

I wonder why アメリカ人 has to use neighbor's bandwith? If you have no way
of accessing to the Internet on his own, what's the point of having an
ipod touch? I thought if you don't have your own Internet access, then,
ipod classic or ipod nano meet your demands. If you don't keep lots of
music in an ipod then an ipod shuffle is sufficient.

I admire talented programmers who always get everything done so efficiently and elegantly.
I hope you get accepted into the college.

As for your career, your goal may change as you learn a lot at college, and you may consider another path.
Maybe you land on a job that has nothing to do with computers, but a lot of opportunities are open to versatile guys like you.
Whatever walk of life you choose, programming skills and a second language will be a plus.
You speak English and are learning Japanese and Java. I have never seen a trilingual derelict who doesn't enjoy his life.

I could have given some advice if you wanted to be a scientist, but it'd be too early to preach how wonderful science is.

>>30
You made a wise choice. Apps and games are not science any more.
If you're a consumer and interested in taking advantage of personal computers,
you'll get bored with computer science/engineering sooner or later.
Riding a bike is fun, but I don't think riders should learn mechanical engineering or dynamics.

My ISP is blocked but my neighbor must have a different ISP because I can post. I do have my own wifi connection a home.
Plus my iPod touch is serving me well during class once I figured out the school wifi password.

I had a great day to day. My calculus quiz was postponed and my kanji quiz was incredibly easy and I easily answered
the extra credit questions(thank my flashcard application for my iPod for that). However, the highlight of my day was seeing
the Chicago premier of the movie "TOKYO!" www.tokyothemovie.com . I surprised myself by understanding a lot of the Japanese.
As I said to my friends, "TOKYO! left me with shudders. See it if you want great social commentary and a dose of the absurd."

WASHINGTON – [ Turning more upbeat ], President Barack Obama said Friday [ his administration is working to create a "post-bubble" model for solid economic growth [ once the recession ends ].
He said [ that means the days of [ overheated ] [ housing ] markets and "[ people maxing out on their credit cards ]" are over.
But first, Obama said, "We've got [ to get through this difficult period ]."
There are "modestly [ encouraging ] signs" on that score, said Lawrence Summers, Obama's top economic adviser,
[ citing indications [ that consumer [ spending ] had stabilized after [ taking a dive over the holiday season ] ].
The White House attempts [ to be positive ] matched a fourth day in a row of stock market gains.
The Dow Jones industrials gained ****53.92 points [ to cap Wall Street's best week since last November ].
Administration officials were criticized earlier this year for [ painting too dark a picture of the economy in an effort [ to win congressional passage of the president's ***$787 billion stimulus package ].
But more recently, the president and others on his team have tempered their comments in hopes of [ building confidence ],
[ including the president's suggestion last week [ that it was a good time for those with a long-term perspective [ to buy stocks ] ].

A Poem by Victor Hugo "I wish you"
First of all, I wish [ you love, and that by [ loving ] you may also be loved ].
But [ if it’s not like that ], be brief in [ forgetting ]
And [ after you’ve forgotten ], don’t keep anything.
I wish [ that wouldn’t happen ],
but [ if it does and you forget ], you could be a person without desperation.
I also wish [ you may have a lot of friends ],
And [ even if they are bad and inconsequent ],
They should be brave and true


37:片岡数吉 ◆X8bUvIiQ1A
09/03/14 14:00:36
And, at least one of them, should be completely reliable.
But [ because life is the way [ it is ] ],
I also wish [ you may have enemies ].
Not many or too little, just in the right number
[ So that you will have to question your own certainties and truths as well ].
And may there be among them at least one [ who is just and fair ],
[ So that you can never feel too secure in your ideas ].
I wish [ you may be useful but not irreplaceable ]
*敵対する者を通して自分の考えに安心しすぎてしまう危険を防げる。
自分の考えが役に立つ物であるように、だが取り替えの利かない物にならないように(進化した物で取り替えが利くように)


38:片岡数吉 ◆X8bUvIiQ1A
09/03/14 14:01:21
And in your bad moments,
[ [ When you have nothing else ], That sense of usefulness will keep you on your feet ].
So equally, I wish [ you to be tolerant,
Not with those [ that make little mistakes,
[ because that is easy ] ],
but with those [ that make a lot of mistakes and can’t help it ]
And make good use of this tolerance [ to set an example to others ] ].
I wish [ that, [ being young ], you don’t mature too quickly ].
And [ once you’re mature ], don’t insist in [ getting younger ].
And [ when you’re old ], don’t feel despaired [ Because each age has its pains and pleasures And we need them both in our lives ].

What do you have to do then? In my case, I have fiber optical Internet
connection but my PC is connected to the router or something with a

If you have a wireless router, the DS will search for the connection automatically and then go online.
As for the iPod touch, I think you can use a wireless router in much the same way.
Although I know that many people use the 3G card, which lets you go on the internet anywhere.
However it costs a lot of money.

It may be available if Amazon or something internet stores exist in Chile.
I have looked at this book carefully for the first time,
And I thought a little that this book isn't suitable for Japanese learner.
Because, at first, the Japanese sentences written in this book is too colloquial for learner.
Second, contents of the book is too old. Third, few kanji characters are used in the book.
I think that following stuff is better than above as a textbook of parallel translation.

I found the whole movie put up on the Internet.
The actor who plays Carter in ER plays Steve Job in the movie.
I tried to watch the whole movie but thought twice and decided not to
watch it because I find it understanding spoken English difficult.
So I went back to my day to day rutine, meaning I set sail on a daily

I happened to read an interesting quote from the wife of Bill Gates.

Although Japan imported kanji from China, it seems like 加奈陀人

According to today's paper, a Canadian woman who's been a big fan of Japanese anime is going to debut as a singer in Japan.
She is supposed to sing in Japanese. She moved to Japan a few years ago and won first prize. Her song will be used as a opening song
for some anime (and the name slipped my mind).

I've just watched the niconico video. She is a great singer and deserves to
be the winner of the contest. Actually, she's the only one who has
great singing techniques. Other contestants are terrible.
As some people in niconico commented on the video, other contestants
had better just sing karaoke. They sing off key. Terrible. It's natural
this Canadian woman won the contest.

Not only she sings very well, she doesn't have English accent when
she sings the Japanese song. Without the fottage, I'd had assume she's
Japanese. Other than her song itself, I can tell that she's been
immersed in Japanese songs. Many Japanese singers theses days move their
one hand in the air while singing to express their emotion.
This Canadian woman does the same when she sings.

This is her fan site on youtube where you can watch her sing.

channel but a channel run by her fans.)

She has a blog and in this entry, she write about the contest.

Let me try translating: "There's a relaltionship with Korea. The impression is she's separated from but we still have met her in town.
So it's that sort of thing. If that's the case then perhaps it'd be better if the two people have been married. As to that extent there's a relationship."

I know that's not a very good translation, but I think that's the gist. Ichiro is pretty darn witty.

119:名無しさん@英語勉強中
09/03/17 14:22:44
Ichiro is said to be a bright student to the extent that he might have entered
Tokyo university.

His father wanted Ichiro to go to a high school whose baseball club is
strong. But the principal of Ichiro's junior high school didn't want him to
go to the high school because it was obvious Ichiro would have not time
to study because of hard baseball practice so the princiapl persuaded
the manager of the hich school's baseball club not to accept him because
Ichiro has potential and if he studied as he did in juniro high, he would be accademicaly
good to pass Tokyo university's entrance exam.

Ichiro's father told the manager to accept him, claiming Ichiro and his father's
dream is Ichiro's becoming a baseball player.

120:名無しさん@英語勉強中
09/03/17 14:26:25
>>118
Yeah.

One thing I find especially funny about it is that he's married already(in real life), so
there'd be no chance that ex-girlfriend and he would be in a relationship again.

Think Ichiro implies he is also bored with another match as many others(including audiences) are.


121:名無しさん@英語勉強中
09/03/17 14:46:42

I'd translate like this.

Somehow Japan is pretty closely connected with Korea.
It's like you happen to see your ex-girlfriend in town.
That happens often. Maybe getting married with her is a good idea
if the two see so often and are connected that way.

Ichiro compare seeing ex in town to Japan and korea's national
teams game. I don't understand Ichiro's metapher though.
Anyway, in WBC's system, Korea and Japan play games many times.
Tomorrow's game is the third time and If both team move on to the final,
they'll play fifth time in this tournament.

That's because of adoptation of new tournasment system in WBC.
In the old system, Japan and Korea played three times.

I bet Ichiro would be a good troll on 2ch.
In fact, he said on an interview that he once posted on 2ch to defend himself in his thread when people
were criticizing his personality as being selfish and egoistic. He wrote "Actually, Ichiro is a nice guy."
and someone asked "Are you Ichiro by any chance?", then that completely shook him out of his anger.

Yeah. Japan's national team has to be more motivated by the act.
The ability of Japan's each player is higher than that of Koreans
but as a team, Korea did a good job in this game and the last game.

Japan's number of hit was larger than Koreans. It's just that Japan gave
more walks and Japan's hits were intermittent.

I think Japan'll beat Cuba tomorrow and there's still a hope for Japan
survive the tournament but Japan has to be more motivated.
Ichiro didn't hit in this game. If he get back to his normal conditon,

Did they do that again just in the elimnation round?
I guess they did that act because they won against japan.
They would not have done that if they had beaten a team
other than japanese team. Possibly they might do against U.S too.

I remember they did that act even when they lost to Japanese team
in the semifinal? round in the previous WBC.
And Korean media started to make an excuse that Korea was the true champion
because they beat japan twice or Cuba must have been unhappy
with weaker and bogus japan or something.

The Japanese teeth are actually less prutruding than whitemen.
The Japanese have shorter nose and chin, which makes our teeth
look prominent. These phenomenon are (more) common among koreans too.
For some reason Koreans see japanese from the white people's standpoint.

that I can't give up because of that.

When I was a little kid, other kids were always talking about their favourite

Soccer is very popular in Japan too. Old people watch Baseball and
younger people generally prefer Soccer I think.

and by 15, no one was talking about Baseball any more.

Yes im Chilean and videogames are my favorite hobbie, much more than Anime.
Japanese videogames are the best for me, here in Chile and mostly all America we lost some consoles.
PC-Engine wasnt really popular outside of Japan so i get one (imported) when i was young mostly because of Dracula X.
In that time i discover a lot of Japanese games that you cant find here.

Still my favorite genres are Fighters, Shooting and Puzzle games, totally Arcade player i guess.

I've played HOMM series, I have no idea how to play (so I need to read tutorial
messages but, you know, it's hard to read them because of the said reason).
Hmmm, to be truthful, I'm still in dark what I should do at the begining of the first map.
Any pointers? I'd really appreciate it if those of you who played HOMM5 helped me out.

Anyway, the game is visually very entertaining. I like it very much.

who don't care about them (mainly console gamers and casual gamers)
So, all kinds of non-Japanese games are popular among the former. I'm one of
the former so I dont really know what's popular among the latter and whats not.

I cant blame Japan, videogames in USA at least on console were terrible in the 90s on the 8 and 16 bit era.
There is the idea that "PC Gamers in Japan" mostly plays Eroge or Doujin games... and there are not too much fans of FPS or RTS.

All those "suicide is honorable in Japan" claims are exaggerated to some extent.
Certainly our culture and traditions (and the economic turmoil too) have something to do with the higher suicide rate,
but it doesn't seem that they are the main cause. After all, we're all humans and no one in their right mind would want to hurt themselves.

I think the biggest problem is the stricter regulation on stimulant drugs for clinical depression/ADHD/whatever
and poor treatment of such illness and disorder.
Also poor understanding of mental diseases among the Japanese is aggravating the dire situation.
In fact, quite a few people regard seeking for professional help for mental illness/disorder as extremely shameful.

I'm not sure if the you-can-fake-mental-disorder situation in the US is better than our you-can't-get-any-stimulant-no-matter-what,
but it seems the US is handling patients who need help much better.

Yes, until the late 90's it was exactly as you said, western videogames were seen as
weird/lesser shite in most cases.
Also, what you said about Japanese PC gamers and Eroge is exactly how it was
in the 90's. There is a 2ch banner (I think it's on the PC games board) where
a 2ch character is buying Inukatana (parody of Daikatana, an infamous FPS phail)
and some kid saying "that guy's buying an Eroge!" or something like that.
But we get a lot of real good games from the west now, and the FPS/RTS community
in today's Japan is far bigger than a niche. I think there are even some Japanese
pro FPS/RTS gamers who compete internationally.

I've heard that not to poop everyday doesn't mean you are unhealthy.
It depends on a person how often they poo.
Actually, it's very common for me not to poop for three or four days and
I'm completely all right.

If I don't poop for a three or four days, my poo become very long and huge and
it's like that of Saint Bernard's. When I get it out of my body and
see it in toilet, I feel a sense of achievement. It doesn't flush by just
one try. Two flushes are need to get it all gone. So far, I haven't had to

As most of the people living all over the world say, Korean guys are absolutely popular all over the world even now.
They say Korean guys are like white Asian people because Korean guys are smart, gentle, cool, hot and sexy.
But it seem they will consider Korean guys are the best of all the peoples after WBC is finised with Korea at the top of
the world, looking down on all the other baseball teams. You know Venezuela completely beat America the other day, and
now Korea makes Venezuela get down on its kneads just by comletely beating the country. The world should admit Korean guys
are phisically talented as well as mentally superb. All the girls on this planet are naturally attracted to this kind of guys.
American people respect Korea for Korean high-tech gadgets and phisical strength. In other words, American people know how smart
and tough Korean guys are. They love Korean products and Korean guys. I wouldn't be surprised if American girls rushed to offer
marriage to Korean guys. :) Europian girls already noticed that since when they knew Korean succer team was really strong.
Now it goes without saying all the girls in this world are mesmerised with Korean guys.
I'm proud of it. :)

know it. "Even my dad hasn't hit me." is a famoue line.
The scene is followed by Amuro pooing by the way.

How very sick of you! Don't you ever try to show us how ignorant of you.
Yes, lots of German girls are already interested in Korean guys.
And even if a few of them haven't known yet, once they notice how very attractive Korean guys
are, they'll go crazy for K-guys. So such girls should know that now.
Anyway, it occured to me when I read you, though, that you're just jealous of Korean popularity.
American people are so honest that they admit the truth, but Germans are not?
Either way, this is a good oppotunity for you to know how impressive Korean guys are.
As I said, most of the girls all over the world are already mesmerized with Korean guys, and those few people
who don't know about Korean guys yet will love Korean guys when they see Korean guys. That is, it'd be safe to
say all the girls living on this planet will fall in love with Korean guys sooner or later.
I'm really proud of it. :)

To tell you guys the truth, I was really dombfounded and surprised that
there are still, though only a few, people who claim they don't know how popular Korean guys are around the world.
I was at a loss for words about their ignorance of what's happening in this day and age. Korean guys are attractive and many girls are attracted to
Korean guys, yes, that is the only truth you need to know. Those who oppose that fact should be considered uneducated or just ignorant.
I thought I taught you guys how very popular Korean guys were, but it seems that wasn't enough. Those few people need to know how impressive
Korean guys are and they have to respect Korea no matter what because Korea is worth full respect.
But of course, I'm proud of the fact that many girls in the world already like Korea very much. :)

I am well aware that your statement is completely backed up by アメリカ人's confirmation and
イギリス人's silence about it. However, it has yet to be confirmed by any actual German resident.
Otherwise, my ignorance won't be cleared up as it should be.

I don't know what you are saying, but there's one thing I know for sure is true.
Korean guys are absolutely popular among girls all over the world because Korean guys are smart and sexy.
The world knows that except for a few ignorant people.
I'm proud of it. :)

In 7 hours, Japan vs USA in World Baseball Classic is broadcast.
I think I have to go to bed now to watch the game.

USA national team is supplemented with a closer from Chicago Panty Sniffers.
Before he makes appearance in the game, Japan has to earn as many runs as
possible. To advance to the final, Japan has to knock USA to shatters.

As long as the pitcher throw a ball of poo, there is no pitch by hit
in any game. Who wants to be hit by a poo? A hitter stands far away
from the plate.

It's true, Korean men are adored by all German girls.
My girlfriend left me because she knew I'd never be as smart, strong and sexy as a K-Man.
"Masturbating to Korean dramas is better than being together with you!" she told me.
More and more people here start to know how great Korea is.
I myself trashed my Mercedes last week and bought a Hyundai instead.
And of course, there's no food as delicious as some good, real Korean sushi.
Sometimes I'm sad that my country isn't as cool as Korea,
but then I remind myself that everyone else, too, has to accept and live with the fact of Korean supremacy, so I'm not ashamed.

Heh, one of my PC monitors really is an LG.
Seriously speaking though, here's all what most Germans/Europeans know about Korea:
-Korea is somewhere in Asia.
-Most people are pretty sure that Korea is a country. Others think it's probably a part of China.
-Korean writing looks sort of like Chinese, but not exactly like it.
-They eat dogs. (China is far more famous for this though)
-North Korea's dictator is a funny-looking madman.

If someone over here is interested in or fascinated with East-Asian countries, they're usually into Japanese or maybe Chinese stuff.
And unlike the USA, we don't get many immigrants from Korea, so yeah, naturally there's not much awareness about that country's culture.

Oooh, SBS again.

For those who are not in the know, SBS is an infamous Korean TV station (not to Korean people but the rest of us. lol)
for their sensationalism based on lies.
For example, off the top of my head, what they did in the past was

1) broadcast a false report like all US beaf was infected with mad cow deaseas and lead thousands of Koreans to be turned extremely hard against USA.
They did it without scientific evidence..

2) sneak into the place where the ceremony of the Beijin Olympic was supposed to take place
and record a rehearsal without permission and broadcast it by breaking the rule(s).

And this time they are blaming Japanese skaters, especially Mao Asada, in a gratuitous manner for interrupting Kim Yuna? All based on that edited and mozaiced video
which turned out to be fault now? Gee, I feel sick.

* I'm sure you can confirm that those videos I mention above do exist on youtube, just in case you are interested to watch.

American people, what is people around you reaction like about WBC?
Allmost all posters including American here are nerd and you and your
friend don't even talk about WBC?

米人 is a Boston Redson fan and she might be interested in WBC, too.
Then again what she cares is only her local team, though.

This may be a bit off the point, but as for me, I didn't hear about those names (Sumsung and LG) just about half a year ago.
And I've never seen their cellphones nor monitors sold in Japan, probably because I just didn't notice.
You? Did you know the companies far back?

>>250
That'd be an exciting game. Tatsunori Hara, the superviser of the team, said he respects American baseball and he's happy and excited to
have a match with America. And I agree with him. I don't know why I feel this way, but whether we win or lose isn't a matter any more.
I guess it's because we can respect each other no matter what the result will be. I just want to enjoy watching the game. ^_^

>-North Korea's dictator is a funny-looking madman.
