Have fun & don't shit up this thread! ヽ(´ー`)ノ
http://www.shii.org/ is back. I like that.
I hope this time there will be less drama and more delicious wotaku stuff.
Some day I'll have some good reply for this thread.
School starts tomorrow.
The summer is gone so quickly.
I remember last spring, when I was writing this to world4ch.
In passing, we are reminded that things don't last forever
and realize why they are precious.
Of course, that can sometimes be a good thing.
I am pretty relieved my hangover from the weekend is fading away...
I had a great day today. Good food, good company, and everything just went perfectly, even when I was expecting it not to. Ahhh.... bliss.
I'm so angry that I wasted all of my summer away. The fun stops here; or rather, it didn't even start. I am angry at the world!
Suddenly, I realize.
All I do is play on the computer anyway.
It doesn't matter whether it's summer or winter.
I feel depressed, but what else can I do with my life?
Whenever I go outside, I get bored quickly.
>>9
Go to a developing country and help building up an infrastructure!
>>9 go postal.... then go jump off a roof of a tall building with a bunch of 'nades strapped to all the pins and you pull that shit out moments before you face plant in full bloody glory... then your corpse explodes, taking everyone with you to the next world
I think it was the cat that did it. Flying around in the look staring at the moon, terrifying the hell out of me. What made me wonder was the way it flew. It was not like a bat but like a cow jumping over the moon trying not to block the light while not being able to and being too small while tring to be a cat in a bat's body jumping over the moon. The moon is so bright.

There is no reason.
I slept on my arm, it was completely limb and just hung from my body, I couldn't move it for the first few seconds, it was funny.
I did that once too (arm under the head). I was 15 at the time.
When I woke up I couldn't feel a thing. Needless to say, that was a scary few seconds. I thought I'd killed it or something.
Sometimes, when I am really tired, I lose my sense of perspective. Literally. I no longer have any idea how big things are. I'll be browsing the internet on my two-meter monitor that's sitting across the room, using my two-milliter mouse with my five-meter long arm.
It's great fun, I wish it would happen more often.
Something similiar used to happen to me when I was younger.
Sometimes, when I'd close my eyes at night and was just starting to dream, the visions would unexpectedly become very large, as if they were shoved into my inner eye.
> my arm, it was completely limb
tee hee.
I'm not a native speaker! I meant "numb"!
I didn't really mean to mock the mistake, it was just an interesting substitution. A limb that was limp and numb?
I suck with names and faces.
I'm the kind of guy who wouldn't recognize one of my teachers if I bumped into them outside of class.
Me too. I forgot your name already.
Well i have a habbit of messing up anems, don't know why, but people take real offense to that.
>>23
Well, it should be fine as long as you don't call your girlfriend by another name during sex ^^; or anywhere else, for that matter
>>24
I did call an ex of mine the name of another ex several times.
Boy, I'll never hear the end of that, even now.
Last night I watched a documentary about the psychological/philosophical/semiotical differences between the west and the far east.
One hypothesis that some scholars from both hemispheres proposed was that westerners were more likely to clearly seperate different parts of reality (most notably evil & good) and were more affirmative of light, hope, etc.; while the Japanese were more likely to accept the yin (the dark part of yin/yang duality) and to perceive reality as something that has to be unified somehow.
Also, they interviewed some convicted Japanese canibal who was released from jail but who expressed his wish to die, as him being alive forced him to constantly be reminded of his guilt of killing (the woman he ate). He was also filmed meeting a young (and really pretty) woman who had a sadism/torture/death fetish. She told a story about how she dug out an animal corpse she had buried with a friend a few days before (when she was very little), then sticking her hand in the warm, decaying and maggot infested body and how she felt total ecstasy from that. She also said that inflicting pain on men, cutting them with razors, drinking their blood, etc. were giving her exceeding levels of lust.
Later, both of them were filmed in an apparment, talking about cannibalism. The canibal said he'd like to be eaten by the girl, and how he dreamt of that. The girl said she thought eating the one you love and be eaten by the one you love would be a very intimate experience and that she'd like to die that way.
Another notable thing was the Ajase complex, as proposed by Kosawa, a Japanese student of Freud. They talked a lot about different conceptions of motherhood in east & west.
I also liked the part where somebody mentioned that males were mostly striving for "small perfections" by excluding everything perceived as imperfect and how that limits males typically, while females are more capable of accepting and incorporating more parts of reality, but as they are also able to fail, they usually end up in much bigger heaps of confusion if they do.
Did they say anything about those who divide people into groups and make sweeping generalizations about them?
>>27
I was waiting for that comment. It's a typical fallacy, as saying you cannot make general statements about hypothetical groups of people essentially implies that you cannot say anything about any kind of people, as people are already a generalized group (which means that generalized statements about them are not automatically incorrect) - so the only way to weasel yourself out of that would be to say that groups of people (e.g. "the Japanese", etc.) don't exist.
While that could be a legitimate statement in some sorts of discourse, it's very impractical.
> One hypothesis that some scholars from both hemispheres proposed was that westerners were more likely to clearly seperate different parts of reality (most notably evil & good) and were more affirmative of light, hope, etc.; while the Japanese were more likely to accept the yin (the dark part of yin/yang duality) and to perceive reality as something that has to be unified somehow.
This is not the stupidest thing I've ever heard a psychologist say, but goddamn is it up there.
Um, it's based totally in fantasy and connects vague "Oriental" mysticism to individual Japanese people with barely even the pretense of a post hoc ergo propter hoc. Do psychologists have a license to make up unadulterated bullshit these days?
I'm so dismayed. Every year, it is the same routine. I say to myself, "This year, I will not procrastinate! I will take my subjects and my teachers seriously!". I think the real problem with the Ontario Public School system is that the teachers are lax, lazy, and generally uncaring, whilst the subject material is redundant and sometimes irrelevant.
Have you ever been to summer school? In there, they pack ~4 months of regular work into just 2-3 weeks! I was able to learn all the topics while my work habits were still good. In the semester system, it takes 1~2 months for them to deteriorate and for me to begin to hate the teacher, the course, the world.
>I'm so dismayed. Every year, it is the same routine. I say to myself, "This year, I will not procrastinate! I will take my subjects and my teachers seriously!"
I've been singing that tune for years. I should actually be studying right now, I have a test tomorrow.
>>29,31 said pretty much what I was thinking, without feeling the need to be a smartass about it like me. It's not that you can't make statements about groups (I'm not going to argue against "on average, women bear children more often than men"), it's that all such statements are not created equal, and these particular ones were pretty lacking in any sort of insight not based in silly predjudices.
>>31
Fantasy shmantasy. It sounds reasonable to me, what with Judeo-christianity influencing the west for thousands of years and Buddhism-shintoism influencing the east for thousands of years. Two very different philosophies, making for different mindsets over the ages with the people going through their individual assimilation processes. While the religions mentioned were never too homogenous, I think it's ignorant to dismiss any reference to their influence as "vague".
And that's just one (possible) explanation for the correctness of the hypothesis (which of course may be wrong for some individual cases).
I also hold the belief that the general, very un-individual developments dozens of generations before us have gone through have a huge impact on our individual existence, whether we like it or not. There's been some arguments for that in this thread: http://4-ch.net/general/kareha.pl/1124958215
>>34
What do you mean with "all such statements are not created equal"?
Number 1 is pretty easy to confirm as holding true, and is even useful for extrapolating from groups down to individuals. Number 2 is vague and actually makes no statements that are supported by any kind of evidence, or testable any meaningful way. It also smacks of the "orientals are mystical beings living in harmony with the world" new-age fallacy. All it does is to play into our preconceptions, and glorifies the Other, letting us feel good about ourself as modern world citizens who appreciate the wisdom of Other Cultures.
All this while in actuality, you can take an average Japanese person and an average Westerner, and find that beyond language and some social mores, there's hardly any difference. The difference between any two individuals picked out of either group is likely to be far, far larger.
So while there is some difference in outlook, on average, it's most likely far less than people who talk about unifying yin and yang would think, and even that difference is largely overwhelmed by the difference between indivduals, making any insights you gain this way largely useless.
>>35
I'm getting a whiff of a troll, but for now I'll assume good faith.
Shintoism is only part of Japan. Buddhism is from India which is not part of that amorphous CJK blob you refer to as "the East". Neither religion has anything to do with a yin-yang, which is a concept native to Chinese traditional religion and is known in Japan only in the context of martial arts. See also >>36
> Shintoism is only part of Japan. Buddhism is from India which is not part of that amorphous CJK blob you refer to as "the East".
Religions:
observe both Shinto and Buddhist 84%,
http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/ja.html
And yes, India is part of the eastern hemisphere commonly refered to as "the East", whether you like that or not.
Also, yin-yang is not "a concept native to Chinese traditional religion" but an integral part of Taoism, a philosophy that originated in China thousands of years ago but since then has transmutated throughout all of Asia.
> statements that are supported by any kind of evidence, or testable any meaningful way
I think you are missing the point. This wasn't about some wapanese making up facts as they see fit but studied people from both Japan and western countries coming to the same conclusions as they were trying to describe and explain the differences in different mindsets, the latter working slightly different than looking for evidence of ovaries or what have you.
I understand that trying to do that will lead to generalized assertions and assumptions. That does not, however, make them neccessarily untrue, it doesn't even make them likely to be untrue. And extrapoling from historically factual ideologies like religions and philosophies seems a better course than extrapoling from climate & geography, as was usual code of discourse when talking about the mindsets of foreign countries in 17-18th century western humanities.
This isn't about gloryfying anything or some dweebs paraphrasing popular prejudices for the hell of it. The people who were interviewed had decades of scholarly as well as practical experience with lots and lots of actual people.
> All this while in actuality, you can take an average Japanese person and an average Westerner, and find that beyond language and some social mores, there's hardly any difference.
Perhaps, I'd still assert that these little differences can be subsumed under "general differences between generally different mindsets" which is what I've been trying to say all along, though.
> The difference between any two individuals picked out of either group is likely to be far, far larger.
That kind of depends on what you are taking into your observation, doesn't it? Which would be a prejudice in method, but meh...
The difference between any two individuals picked out of either group is likely to be far, far larger.
> The people who were interviewed had decades of scholarly as well as practical experience with lots and lots of actual people.
Ever heard of argument from authority?
> Perhaps, I'd still assert that these little differences can be subsumed under "general differences between generally different mindsets" which is what I've been trying to say all along, though.
"Differences between mindsets" are things like not bothering deliquent hikikomori kids who stay in their rooms, or making a bigger deal about the suicide rate than about violence and sex on TV. These are the sorts of decisions which make up a culture. You may note that none of this has to do with "yin-yang" gibberish which can be read into any damn thing and which I still assert has never been popular in Japan.
Furthermore, "mindsets" do not determine a higher rate of cannibalism, which has probably never been sanctioned in any society. That makes your TV doctor even more outrageous.
> Ever heard of argument from authority?
Did, but I don't hold the belief that arguing from authority automatically provides falsity or correctness of an assertion. Also, it's not the case here. I merely wanted to point out that there weren't just your average idiots. But I guess it doesn't matter anyway.
And the cannibalism bit wasn't directly connected to anything the "TV doctor" (what) said. It was more of a correlating piece of documentary in the bigger picture (about the different mindsets which included questions like "Why don't Japanese moms kiss their children?" (<- WARNING! GENERALIZED STATEMENT) or "Why are Japanese people so obsessed with cleanliness?").
They also had various bits of Soviet spionage & encryption business, western dominatrix stuff and some Roland Barthes for good measure.
Reminds me of the Reader's Digest article circa 1950, answering questions like "Why are women so obsessed with cleanliness?"
I guess they never met my mom.

After a few weeks, I've gotten better at understanding my professor who is Chinese. Thank goodness!

How so?
He speaks English fine, but his accent is rather pronounced. At first, listening and understanding what he was saying took some effort, but it's becoming easier.
heh, I had a teacher like that last semester. Took me a few weeks as well.
God, I wish people would turn off the sound on their computers in this classroom.
Speaking of computer sounds, my laptop's fan is so loud that i'm embarassed to use it during a class, even though that's what I bought it for!
RE: Computer sounds
My computer is making stupid BEEPs whenever I regulate the main volume control (XP Pro). I think it's the main board and I have no idea how to turn it off (already checked the BIOS). It's really annoying, HALP!
My laptop is starting to look kinda ghetto. It's got scratches all over the case, some of the rubber pads are missing from the bottom, and the fit on some of the frame is weird since I am not qualified to do laptop repair (lol). I'd like to get a new one, but I can't justify spending $1000+ on a computer when I have one that works.
>>61
Mine's that way too, except I think it's cool looking. Something about the run-down look on all my electronic equipment just does it for me.

So guys, I was bored and I clicked on the "oekaki SQL" board on futaba for fun.
Out of a sense of randomness, I clicked "paint" and drew a picture of Osaka eating out Chiyo.
I came back this evening and found a japanese nanashi had commented on it. He said (translated), "Chiyo-chan, yah cunt is soooo stinky".
Previously, I felt that it was a major accomplishment for a Japanese person to respond to my contributions. Now, I just feel like I should write more coherent things.
>>64
You just reminded me to check out their oekaki boards again. Thanks!
Anyone want to take my Operations Management exam for me?

No problem, but you can keep the rest of your life that I'll screw up by failing the test.
Or maybe failing the test will lead to you being happy for the rest of your life. Who knows?
It... could be, I guess. Maybe my failure is destiny. :|
Actually, I think the test went pretty well. Just one problem I wasn't sure how to work.
The light fitting in my bedroom just broke. I guess I'll be living in the dark for a while.
I'm sure there's probably some profound lesson to be learned in that. :)

Well, GJ!
today was awesome! No work. I woke up at 11am and headed off downtown to meet a japanese friend of mine! We studied both japanese and english for little while. Then she had to go, so I went off to the chinese place and got very cheap food!
Sweet & Sour Chicken, 2 Liter of Pepsi, Rice, Eggroll, Soup! $4. And then I went off to the anime store and picked up a 1/100 RX-78 NT-1, I''s Volume 3, and a pretty cool Sakura (of Sakura Taisen) figure! I then went across the street to the arcade, played DDR, House of the Dead, Capcom Vs. SNK 2, and King of Fighters 2003. I headed home and when I got there, began building my model. Then I watched Suna Bouzu. After this I ordered chinese again since it was so great, sat back, and played Tales of Symphonia into the night, before getting online and posting on my favorite message boards/bbs and talking to my girlfriend.
For me, today has been the perfect day. A much needed one in the shitty amount of shit that's been happening lately, too!
I need more days like that. :( Not that I really have anything to complain about, mind you...
>>76
You are living the otaku dream life. Make tomorrow just as good.
>>76-78
how such a simple day can be so perfect~.
it all sounds so easy, this otaku dream life. the hobbies are extremly simple to do and the materials are within arms reach. money is nice but nowadays there are ways to get by on just $50 spare dollars a week and still be able to enjoy anime and games quite a lot. All that's required is an apartment and a computer.
Why, though, can an otaku only have a day like this once every few weeks? Such easy things should be easily done, but not when you want to do them.
I can't stand this shit. My girlfriend keeps telling other guys she loves them and shit like that. Ugh, it makes me so jealous! I'm the kind of guy that needs a ton of affection and love from my girlfriend, not her telling other guys she loves them, when I rarely ever get to hear this myself. sigh~.
I really do get extremly jealous very easily. I don't get mad over it, just very depressed. it sucks. Oh well.
>>80
Does she know how you feel? If not then maybe you need to tell her.
If she does know, then she's being shitty to you on purpose. Maybe you like that somehow, though.
>>80, do you have some sort of 'open-ended' type of relationship going on? Or is it just 'open-ended' on her side or something?
Man, sad thing is I'd kill for something like that, even... orz
>>82
You'll be much more likely to kill yourself once you're in something like that. How anybody could love somebody and then figuratively or literally watch that somebody fuck some scumbag in front of you I will never understand...

I met a girl yesterday and she liked me.
This is going on the list of the most important events of my life.
I pretty much gave up on meeting girls. I am not going through all that trouble again, at least not in the near future.
Just go to parties and cons and you'll find girls at random. The kind that like American otaku are one in a hundred thousand, and they might not live nearby, but that's what LiveJournal is for. Also, advertise your lack of social skills with a 4-ch T-shirt. This is the sum of my advice.
>>95 knows his snide remarks very well.
On the way to school today, in-between tranferring buses, a girl who went to the same CC as I did and came from the same city (which generally means shes usually on the bus with me for the whole trip) came over to ask a question, and I responded.
After that, she walked away for a bit and I put my headphones on to listen to M-flo on my NetMD.
She came back and stood around for a while like she wanted to talk, but after me not saying anything (or taking off my headphones) she just walked away.
I probably would have tried harder if she was attractive but, oh well.

Coming up with default names, which ID mode should be turned on, banners, background, posting guides & local netiquette, whether some topics that come up frequently deserve their own board.
Technically, the feedback board already has threads for these issues, but I thought it would be worth a try to see if a localized version in one thread could be done here.
Also maybe discussing if there needs to be less moderation, more moderation, moderation on what kind of issues, etc.
there needs to be more moderation on alcohol and video games

When did people start caring about other people's children?
It's not caring for the children, it's self-preservation. I don't want to be robbed by or murdered by some ill-raised monstrosity.
>>123
The problem is that parenthood is a complex activity, and doing it well is extremely subjective. The logistics of deciding who is fit and who isn't is near impossble.
The answer is then to kill whoever was not raised right.

I just got back from our local car show.
haha, i think i hit on this guy last night. a few times. it didn't work though, and he was drunker than me. sham
147 meant "shame" but hit reply by accident. 147 is also a bit hung over, so give him a break.
i went to a party to celebrate a friend achieving the right to have a midlife crisis (aka 30th birthday party) yesterday, and i was hit on something heavy by a woman i think is 27-30 years old, which is quite peachy n' all, i mean, she's cute intelligent and everything, i scored a phonenumber n' all.
but, there is total thunder in paradise, turns out this woman owns not only an apartment (which is just cool, she earns approximately ten times what i do apparently), but she also has a dishwasher. Which these oldtimers spent no small amount of time discussing, actually referring to their dishwashers as their 'babies'.
Now once i heard the dishwasher thing i felt completely intimidated and awkward, for no good reason or anything, i mean, it's just a dishwasher and she's completely out of my league n' all. Maybe i feel intimidated by the fact that people around me are actually growing up while i've pretended to be 20 for about four years now (am 22 now).
discuss or something
peace out
it just occurred me that if this stuff actually goes somewhere i'm totally going to chronicle it here all densha style
i'll even make an effort to write coherently and everything
go go, dishwasher otoko!
>>149
Who are "these oldtimers"? She's out of your league because she owns a dishwasher? Requesting details!
>>152
the oldtimers are people around thirty, who have all either graduated from uni or aren't going, but they don't really have any particular bearing on the story, for now at least.
Anyway, the thing is that when we were talking about this dishwasher, the things that led to her buying one and how much better her life is after spending like 70k isk on a dishwasher. The conversation was fun and everything and the thought of this being weird didn't hit me until i went for a toilet run. So i'm standing there, pissing like a racehorse, and i start reviewing the conversation. Then it hits me, this girl owns an apartment, she has a good job, she has (note: this is the way it seemed to me that night when my brain was slightly skewed from a few gin & tonics, a bit of speed and a full moon.) resigned herself to living her life as it is now for at least quite some time.
This, to some of you at least, doesn't really seem like a big deal except this completely goes against the way i'm living my life now, i own virtually nothing of value, i'm a poor university student with an outdated laptop and an ipod, i live with my parents most of the time, unless i have another place to stay, my whole existance is geared towards being able to, at any time, any place, say "yes, let's go now" to whomever comes up to me and offers me a trip to another country, planet, parallel universe or whatever.
So when me, packing my immense fear of commitment, started thinking about the difference between us i felt pretty freaked out by the huge gap.
But don't get me wrong, i'm aware of the fact that it isn't exactly healthy to have a near-panic attack at the thought of commitment and to meet someone like this could actually serve to get me closer to the ground, or vice versa, or both.
so, i'll keep you posted
> 70k isk on a dishwasher.

The fact that homosexuals like flaunting thier homosexual-ness is one of the main things I don't like about them.
The same can be said about Mac-owners.

You will note that he is making the same generalization about homosexuals. Ignore the troll. Carry on.
You might as well sometime say "hey guess what doods, I am gay! bet you couldn't guess" or something. Either that or next time people ask you about if you have a girlfriend/boyfriend ( I don't know if you're gay girl or gay boy) say, "fuck no, I'm gay".

You don't see me going "Hey everyone, I'm on a PC!" or "Hey everyone, I'm heterosexual! Let's make a show about it!"
>>166 There's really nothing wrong with you doing that. Just like there's nothing wrong with people so-called "flaunting" gayness by being open about it. It's something people don't naturally assume about a person, so why not make an effort to tell them? That way they don't do something stupid that embarrasses everyone (like hire surprise female strippers for a gay guy's birthday party)
How the hell does it take a week to get a scantron test graded? >_<
>>167
yeah, that's exactly why i want to tell them.
i didn't mean to fill that in the email field. OTL
I think I gave this guy a boner. I hope so... he's hot. (・ω・)
my university recently advertised a certain band as supporting a certain other band who were playing there.
the advertised support band didn't appear. they were in japan.
bastards.
The 2ch VIP porn threads are the best thing ever!
o rly?
is 6" really the average penis size for a caucasian male? mine is 6", but i've only once seen a guy online claim to have less than 7. i know there's an inbuilt tendency to exaggerate, but surely some would tell the truth?
>>175 is clever, with that post he found a way to convince someone he has a 6" penis without making it look like a lie.
Salutes to you sir. I believe you even if no-one else does
I love you, Joe. Seriously. You're the greatest person in the world, and it's a fucking crime that you aren't with someone equally awesome. And as much as I hate to say this, that person isn't me - you deserve better. I know you will never read this, but I need to let this out somewhere.
>>177 holy shit, laura?!?
Who says that person isn't you?
You're thinking too high of him and/or too low of yourself. You could be that person, goddamnit. And if you're not now, you can strive to be. For the future!
As long as there's love!
Love is just an excuse to fuck
>>175 IIRC, the average is closer to 5 inches.
>>179
Well, yeah, I could get over that stuff. The major problem is more that I'm gay and he isn't.
I wonder if there are people without problems out there.
Post in this thread if you are happy and without a care!
>>186
Pretty sure all humans spend their time worrying about something or other, even if it's nothing important. In fact, probably the only animals "without a care" are dogs and dolphins. And all other animals live their entire lives in abject fear.
I'm fairly happy with my life, though! Does that count?
>>186
Yep, everybody has some problem or another.
I guess I'm pretty happy, but I've done some complaining about my small problems as well.
But this is a general chat thread... it's nromal for people to talk about small things or the things tugging at the back of their mind.
Awesome. So all those internet people were LYING. haHA!
Finally! If I go to sleep right now, I will get normal day rhythm again!
I'm gay and no one cares. orz
What, you want a cookie or something? :o
Anyway, I've got to meet with my advisor to get approval to register for spring classes today. The scary thing is, I don't know that I even have enough classes left to make the 12 hour minimum to be a full-time student. Which means I've got to figure out some kind of bullshit class to take or something... any ideas?
yeah, that meant to say "i'd love a cookie" but something keyboard-related wasn't as it should be.
>>192
english classes are either (a) fun or (b) easy to BS your way through
Well, no bullshit classes for me... after we looked at it, I've now got 18 hours I need to graduate.
Thanks, Mr. Torres! >_<
ベノアーーーーー!
Huzzah, I just bombed my Operations Management exam.
I'm not going to worry about it, though! ( ;^_^)
Whenever I try to say "no crying over spilled milk," I always end up crying.
It's strange because I hardly ever cry.

I think useless threads like this on the General Board are rather lame, It should be cleansed so more serious discussions can carry on.
you are just one of those idiots who cant seem to realize that the internet is a place for people to come together and talk, all youc are about is your "serious business" and pornography, you REALY need to grow up and meet more people, because your shut in assholery.
>>203
The internet is a place for people to come together and get mad at each other for no reason.
Wait, weren't 202 and 203 the same...
Oh, never mind. I'll never understand this 'interweb' of which They speak.

They used the same name, but the ID is Heaven due to the sage. So they might be different.

Did something hiccup?

So, last week my public speaking teacher verified that I have an accent. (He said it was "well pronounced.")
Having been home-schooled most of my K-12 life, and sort of reclusive since I started Community college classes back in high school, I've actually only been told this once before. (Back in 8th grade, by a random classmate.) Of course... the fact that I'm reclusive like this is probably the reason I have it in the first place.
Of course, I've had a slight hunch about it all these years. It's probably one of the reasons I shy away from microphones and telephones, explains people asking "are you from New York?", and also why people usually go "Huh? I didn't hear you."
I guess now I should decide if I want to visit a speech therapist or not.
I might post a sound file of me later, if anyone cares. (Though I still feel that my crappy mic is at least partially to blame.)
I wouldn't worry about an accent, >>216 . I have a southern accent thick enough you could spread it on toast, but it doesn't bother me. I actually think it's kind of charming, really. Maybe I'm wrong?
People visit speech therapists because they have accents in the US?
That's just wrong. >>217 has the right idea!
I think us people most Europe generally would recommend any american to see an english speech therapist.
An accent is cool. However, if your teacher tried to avoid saying that you talk incomprehensible, you might want to try correcting this 'accent.' Of course I don't know what it is in your case.
If you consider speech therapy, first consider its effectiveness and how much you could do to fix it on your own.
On a lighter note, since you seem to do public speaking, you should decide what target group you want to reach. If you want to appeal to New-Yorkers, get your speech therapist to give you a New York flavoured accent. If you rather appeal to a republican audience, perhaps you should choose a therapist with a major in 'Redneck Studies.' Finally, for the sake of peace on earth, at least say something sensible regardless of whatever incomprehensible accent you have.... One George Bush is enough.
Wikitravel says of St. Petersburg, Russia:
"St. Petersburg has a somewhat dangerous reputation, although mafia gang wars are unlikely to affect the average tourist. Skinhead gangs are a problem if you are Black or Asian. Much of the police force is corrupt and best avoided. Avoid travel alone at night and do not get into altercations with drunken Russians."
I would think that last part is good advice wherever you are.
>>216
I think you should ask a variety of sources whether you have a problem being heard/understood, and make them give you an absolute and honest answer. It might be hard, but you'll finally know the truth.
If it just sounds like a New Yorker's accent, that's cool. But if you can't be heard/understood, then I think that you should try to correct it.
accents are sexy, thats what most girls say
I can't wait for the 5th. I really need to get as far away from my family as possible.
I'm going out for a drink with friends I haven't seen in some time. I'm a bit nervous because I might start with too edgy humour that I've adopted from the internet.
Intarnut humor never works in the real world. :(

I have no experience finding a job and I need one really bad! If I don't get a job soon I won't be able to pay my internet and phone bills.
What kind of work are you looking for?
I'm telling you, you gotta keep calling places again and again after you apply!
Actually not anything. The last job I had was stock. I'm sure I'm not the weakest guy in town, I can carry heavy stuff here and there, but I just can't endure hours of continuous heavy lifting in my current state.
Yeah I need to call the places I've applied to tomorrow ( ´ω`;)
Something is terribly, terribly wrong with my Internet service provider as well =[
I have an interesting dilemma. While I was at school today, I came across a bunch of textbooks sitting on a bench in the business building, with a 'FREE BOOKS' sign posted above them. Not being one to turn down free stuff, I picked up an Excel 2002 guide and a pretty nice looking International Business book - still in the wrapper, even! I get home, look through it a bit, seems like a pretty good book - then I decide to see what it's selling for online. Amazon shows even used copies going for almost $70! So my dilemma is this: should I keep the book (it might be useful) or sell it? I'm an MIS major, but I've never taken any int'l business classes. Thoughts?
tl;dr: I found a book worth $70. Keep it or sell it?
photocopy any bits that look useful, then sell it?

I have no goals or drive, most of the things I like are getting farther away from me (insufficient funds), and I have no idea what to do about it. Even when I think to myself that I'm going to do something, I end up doing nothing at all.

Seriously, society makes this out to be worse than it is. There's no distinct line between a normal person and a pedophile. You are most likely normal. Shape up.
I just got my first copy of the Nigerian Scam. Wow.
In the last few days, I've learned how to use Share. It was annoying, but I had some experienced friends who talked me through it.
>>269
The guys that programmed WinNY and Share should be shot. Going beyond the bad UI and such... how could they make a flawed anonymity system with all of the information on freenet, traffic analsys, etc out there?
>>270
But despite all that, it seems that the two provide media of higher quality than one could obtain on English P2P networks. I've only accidentally downloaded a few troll files so far.
And we know how well Freenet works, eh?
Neither Winny nor Share are designed for perfect anonymity, just to be anonymous enough to make it not worth the bother.
You try talking when you've managed to download a four gigabyte DVD ISO through Freenet.
I don't think the interview went well. :( Now I just have to wait two weeks for the inevitable "you're not what we're looking for right now..."
orz
i did something today i've been wanting to do for a long-arse time.
\o/ i'm free!
hello person this is directed to. i'll call you Mr.B for now because i'm too paranoid to go into details too much. anyway, to cut a long story short you gave me an erection.
so, um, congratulations.
I hope I am the person that is directed to.
What is it like to get an erection from another guy without expecting to?
>>279
it wasn't exactly unexpected - i'm not the most heterosexual of people here.
oh for fuck's sake
>You try talking when you've managed to download a four gigabyte DVD ISO through Freenet.
i've never used freenet, but i've downloaded 6 gigabyte files through tor before (lol @ isp blocking share, winny, and bittorent, but not ed2k), and i'm sure freenet can't be too much slower than tor...
I can either work on my paper, or read The Count of Monte Cristo.
Hard choice, right?

I have a very incredibly important thing to do at 9am, which would require me to wake up at 8, or possibly 7:30. it's currently 3:22am. I don't trust myself to wake up in time. So I'm not sleeping tonight.
:\ I hate tests... Especially when your future depends on them.
Good luck >>293
Depending on how my homework goes, I might be up as well!
I'm glad my testing days are almost done. Well, officially, anyway.
I had my wisdom teeth removed. The procedure was painless, but the healing afterward is a total bitch.
Where will you be on 01:02:03 04/05/06?
I will be in bed ^^
I've got to have mine out pretty soon. I'm not looking forward to it. :(
I'm wondering what you call an inverse wapanese, someone Japanese who wants to be white..
I think my final went pretty well! The guy threw us a curve, though: it covered material from the first test as well, that I hadn't been studying.
Good thing my BS processor is up to snuff!
I was standing in line to buy lunch, and some girl randomly told the cashier to put my meal on her account!
Granted, it's the end of the term and everyone has lots of money left on their meal cards.... but that was still a very nice thing for her to do.

Was she cute?
You should've Phone numberGET! instead.
Decently cute, but not really my 'type', if that makes any sense.
I'm about to graduate and move anyway, so I wouldn't want to get invovled with anybody around here.

I don't care anymore. I just want to hang out and have fun and not study anymore.
I want to fry some bacon and eggs, but I don't want to bother puting pants on, so I just microwaved a couple frozen taquitos instead.
i really have no idea what to do with myself. i currently feel like shit. also i get the impression that no one cares i exist anymore.

If you need pants to fry bacon and eggs, you're using too much oil.
I have to start my first ever job hunt in earnest within the next couple of weeks. OTL
I have applied everywhere but nobody will call back orz I MIGHT have a job available after June 1st, but I'm moving before June 16th so it seems hopeless for me.
apparently one of the arctic monkeys doesn't like muse because matt bellamy shagged his mum. i have no idea if that's true or not.

Speaking of Muse and such things! I just heard Supermassive Black Hole. It's nothing like their other stuff, but I like it.
I spent something like 30 hours downloading this KOTOKO megatorrent.
So far it's been worth it! :D
I just blew two job interviews in the last 2 weeks. From feedback I failed not because of lack of knowledge but lack of confidence and interpersonal skills. orz
I just went outside for maybe five minutes to try to take photos, because the sky was an unusual yellow color. The shots looked great in the viewfinder. The flash came on autoidiotically and ruined them all. I tried to turn off the flash, but the best I could do was switch from "automatic mode" to "scene mode" using the "Night Landscape" scene. But this had a long exposure time, and I couldn't hold the camera still enough, so those shots came out blurry. Either the long exposure time or the flash ruined every picture I took, save one, which might have come out okay.
While taking pictures didn't go so well, I was much more successful at getting bitten by mosquitoes. In those five minutes I was out there, I got five mosquito bites. Two on each leg and one on my left arm.
I hate life.
If you're having trouble with your flash, what I do is just cover it with your hand or something
>>326
most digital cameras make the image darker when the flash goes off, so that wouldn't work.
if you can't adjust the exposure time manually, you need to get a better camera.

Three tape dispensers are hardly a challenge, but balanced on the top of a desk lamp that is 200 feet tall they provide some degree of intimidation. Obviously a computer speaker, it is, a human being who speaks of other humans who do computations, is not designed by any entity in the imagination of most people who have escaped from a party host's living room into what appears to be the area of bepenised bird's lymph system around the left side of the neck to be as large as the aforementioned office supplies. As a matter of course, this is irrelevant as only one person has or ever will do it, an impressive feat indeed given the currently existent span of time, which has been by all accounts infinite. Within this case, this grandson of the supplicant's mind sacrificed itself in a battle that lasted in the least six thousand years to clear his way without his knowledge, which was currently taking a nap.

oops i posted twice sorry :P
>>346 >All the asian people have exciting lives (is this true)?
x_x in the west? No. Well, depends on how strict the parents are. Girls will always be dominated by the parents and never be allowed to do anything, and treated like crap. Boys have it easier but are still very restricted. They're expected to be smart and succeed in life a lot more than other kids...
If you don't have friends, it's because you don't make the effort. Strike up idle chit-chat with someone in a common situtation (eg in the library, you're researching the same topic). As long as you don't scare them off with talk about anime and otaku and stuff then they'll probably not hate you.
I had a rant, but I forgot it. Oh well. Things aren't bad for me. Going to Japan soon (^_^)b (though it's kind of annoying that heaps of other people I know are going too, so it makes my trip sound less special when I type about it. lol.)
Thanks (T.T) I will try. Also have a nice time in Japan. (O.~)
You know, Japan isn't even all that special. I'm tired of all this wapanese tripe.
Wow, I'm so glad you said that! I'll be sure to cancel my trip now that some jaded internetter has saved me by exposing the truth.
And I've been there already, by the way. So it's not like I'm some deluded fanboy expecting servicing from robot maids.
>>351
I'm (t)here right now.
Maybe you know better, but the other 99% of the internet idiots who drool about Japan do so because of animu fanboyism, and would get laughed out of the country by the average Japanese before they can say "Ohayo baka genki kawaii desu lol".
Thats the reason most of the kids in my HS want to go to Japan which is really annoying.

It'll pass sooner or later. Everybody my parents age wants to go to Canada; everyone my older brothers age wants to go to the UK. It's a generational fad thing, I suppose.

So I moved all my stuff into my dorm room and I was planning on coming back home, why? Because my mom wants me to. Right before I left I find out my hometown's water system is contaminated with e. coli. Logic would say that I should stay on campus where I have a clean water supply and I don't have to worry about boiling water so I don't get sick. My mom believes otherwise, thus I am boiling water.
I want to sign up to a porn site. Just for a month. It's the greatest porn site I've ever seen. Problem is, their credit card companies only accept the usual international cards like Visa, Mastercard etc. All I have is a Maestro debit card, which seems to be only accepted in the UK. I could ask a family member, but I don't particularly want to sign up for porn on my mum's credit card, you know? orz
I think.. what I need is a virtual credit card that's free (or close enough), is available to the UK, isn't a massive scam, and can be credited with a Paypal account. I doubt such a thing exists.
All my friends were going to see snakes on a plane together and I can't go. Had to return home for the exact week this gettogether was planned on. I had been anticipating that trip for months too...
I couldn't go either, but because of a lack of funds. I had been looking forward to it since the movie was announced (waaaay back).
I tried to sell my Gamecube at the last minute, but I couldn't find the cords so no one would take it..

I think alcohol is great. It's so relaxing, takes the egde off everything. If I had the money I'd probably become an alcoholic.

you know, alcohol is really cheap... even homeless people can afford it.
I was thinking if someone becomes a doctore surgeon or general how much free time do they get ? I hope someone could help me out.
Last night I dreamt I was sucking a large breasted womans right nipple.
Today I woke up with a tender and sore right nipple.

Also, general is pretty crappy. More people need to use this thread.
I'm home now. :P
I dreamed that I was going to a Pretty Cure convention. (・∀・) Then it turned into WoW or something even though I don't play that. Well it was weird but interesting.
I just puked the entire contents of my digestive system up. most of it was alcohol. ugh. i'm never drinking again.
I haven't showered for 2 weeks. I don't want to think about the things growing in my crotch.
I dreamed I was stuck inside Disgaea 2, and couldn't go to sleep because I had to beat all the enemies on the screen... except they kept respawning. :\
I was bored out of my mind so I decided to take a shower. It feels quite good to be clean again.
I find myself unable to understand why 186 doesn't like taking a shower...
It's so nice and warm and wet!
>>390 Now that you did it.
Which one do you feel: relief or regret?
Every day I wish I was dead. Why can't suicide be easy?
Suicide is greato!
I've always been sort of mixed when other people mention suicide.
On one hand I think "Well, it's their life, and they have the right to decide if they want to end it or not. They might be incapable of ever doing anything that would make themselves happy." But on the other hand I think "People shouldn't kill themselves. Other people will miss them. Besides, lives shouldn't be wasted. If they really want to waste their life that badly, they should at least do something to try and help other people, like venture on a mission to otehr countries. They might actually find usefulness in their life."
I've never considered suicide myself.
Sometimes I wish I could believe in myself so I could change my situation for the better. I know I never will though.
I've known that I'm probably transsexual since, well, forever. Yet my fear of dissapointing my parents has led me to keep completely silent, never having even told my numerous therapists. I'm going to end up dead by age twenty.
the rapists lol
>>395
I agree with you. In essence, suicide should be legal, but considered immoral.
I wonder what is the best way to deal with a compulsive liar...
>>397
Transsexuality kills you? You should probably tell your parents you have it!!!
>>397
I thought you have to change your sex to be, you know, transsexual.
But if you feel like it would kill you, tell your parents to take you to a doctor (mental or physical) for it. If a doctor vouces for you, your parents should accept it easily.
I want to know who this Chinese guy is. I keep running into him. Maybe he's stalking me. Which I wouldn't mind, because he's hot.

Probably that Halcy guy who also posts at Etherchan and got mentioned in /dqn/ for linking to /dqn/ from his del.icio.us account.
I remember seeing another mention to the english-speaking *chan culture on the daily wtf but I can't remember which site or which thread.
After the hikki threads were moved, this board pretty much died down again. :(
It's a pity. I'd like to see this site become more than MITTENS and oh, some other stuff too. :\
I went to check the grade I got on my Religion midterm and it says I got a "69.5". All the shittier, I estimated between an 89 to an 83 without curve, after tallying up the points for each question. WTF!!
>>412 Sucks for you. I recently took a test that I thought I would have around a 40%. I got 77% FTW!!
>>413
I'm about 70% sure it was a mistake that can be corrected later. Given my luck, I'll bring it up and be charged with cheating or rape or something.
first i failed the hard exam, then i failed the easy exam. im a dumbass.
it's okay. you can always hide yourself from public and never be seen again
I skipped a Monday/Wednesday math class this Monday because I thought there would be a test I would bomb, but it turns out it was Wednesday, so I bombed it today! Luckily I had forgotten about the one drop grade we get, though, so I am safe. WHEW
Oh man, oh man. There's a weird Japanese boarding school not far from where I live (for the children of Japanese people that are working in this country) and they had an open day today. It was fucking awesome.
They had a raffle which featured prizes such as 32" LCD TVs, high quality digital cameras, and electric guitars. (The open day is sponsored by the big companies some of the student's parents work for or some crap like that, so they get great stuff to give away.) I didn't win anything good, but it was still pretty cool. They also had a book sale, and I bought a shit load of manga for 10p A VOLUME. キタ━━━━━━(゚∀゚)━━━━━━!!!!!
Plus there was loads of Japanese food to eat/be disgusted by, weird Japanese kids to be confused by, and assorted strange weeaboos to gawk at. Most fun day I've had for a while. And now I'm going to read some of that big stack of manga I bought... ( ´ー`)
too cool, >>418
i put too much vegemite on my toast :(
An interesting thing happened to me this weekend.
This morning, I left my apartment to go to work as usual... hmm, that's weird, why isn't my car unlocking?... oh, it was already unlocked?.... wait, what?
Yes, my car had been broken into. Well, if you can call it 'breaking' when my dumb ass left the doors unlocked.
Funny thing about it, though, is that I didn't lose much, and the car wasn't damaged. They certainly rummaged around in my glove box and center console, but all that was missing was about $.75 in quarters I had lying around. Not a big loss. Hell, I had my cd case sitting in the front seat, and they didn't even touch it.
What is also odd is that I found a book of matches with one halfway burnt laying in the seat.
My conclusion? A bum camped out in my car. Interesting times.
I'm trying to think of musical instrument-based euphemisms for the penis. So far I've got "pink oboe" and "skin flute".
Meat trumpet
Picollo of pleasure
Trouser trombone
One eyed flesh bassoon.
Schlong saxophone
Muscley Mizmar
...
These are getting a bit ridiculous.
I prefer the cooking euphemisms, myself. The best one I've yet come across is "leather pestle"
Vagina grinder
My tummy's all rumbly now.
Dammit IBM, why couldn't you have given us the software update BEFORE we shipped all 80 of the damn servers out to the store? >:(
One hour left in class..
Five hours left at work...
I know they liked my car, but they didn't have to get it up to 140. :(

I get dizzy from trying on clothes.
I wonder if that's normal. ?_?
lol
Well, I guess it's the feeling of the cloth rubbing against my skin.
And it depends on how fast I do it. Like if I pull my pants down or shirt off too faster, I'm more likely to get dizzy. Or if I put on and take off 3 outfits in a row.
I'm on the buss, posting in your thread
Tomorrow I get my internets back at home. I'm so happy :(
thanksgiving and nothing to do .....i wonder where i could get a life it sucks being 15 in USA.
Happy Thanksgiving 4-ch
I'll be spending Turkeyday drinking with a bunch of Mississippians. :D
I'm sort of happy right now.
I just now figured out that I'm an agnostic. I don't think I've evr heard the term before now, but I found that it decribed my beliefs pretty well.
I'm going out tomorrow with a few friends. But for some reason, there's someone I don't want to see there, even though I know that friend of mine is coming.
Aaah~ Let's just see what's going to happen tomorrow!
I think I have found the most retarded place on the entire internet. I'm not even going to tell you where it is, because I mean damn. Your IQ would probably drop a good 20 points just looking at the place.
damn, i really need to finish that English assignment. i mean i have to write notes and all, about 20 or so pages , and I wasted a whole weekend doing nothing. i didn't even play a game or anything, just was laying around ... arrgh , its 10:26...
I've got work in about 30 minutes. I'm nervous because I've been off for a week, so I bet the work has been piling up. =(
It turned out fine! There was very little work piled, and it's good to get stuck back in! I feel happy, even though my holiday is over. (^.^ )
Augh. Rant rant rant.
I have this friend who suddenly started ignoring me and I don't know why he's ignoring me. I don't want to ask him what's wrong so I don't say anything. Even if I do ask him, he'll probably ignore me!
I wish guys like him would disappear!!
End of rant. (^v^)
My boss has just gone to Jamaica for 2 weeks, which means I'm alone in the office. I have some work, but not a lot. I'm debating whether or not to start drinking at work for the next two weeks.
ヽ(*^▽^* )ツ kampai!
I can't decide if it's smarter for me to get a condo now, or rent for a little while longer. If I can find a nice place in my price range, it'd be great to build equity... but I'd worry that I'm making a move too quickly, since I just moved here and started my new job 6 months ago..
Damn telemarketers. Just got phoned from someone who wanted me to invest in something in Dubai. I really really didn't care about what she was talking about. She went on and on and on. Told her "not interested". She asked for a reason why. What the fuck. YOU just randomly called ME! I said "no reason". She babbled on more until she stopped and I said "not interested byebye" and hung up as she was about to continue babbling. Should have just done that at the start >:/
It always seems sort of rude to just hang up on them, as they're just doing their job.
Onlt time I really hung up was after Citibank called me like, 4 times over a month trying to get me to get a credit card.
The forth time I told them to remove me from whatever list I'm on, and then hung up.
My roommate hangs up the moment he realizes it's a solicitation. I'm just too nice for that... I'll almost certainly hear them out, politely tell them I'm not interested... and usually, they're graceful enough to thank me for my time and wish me a pleasant evening.
I'd hate to be a telemarketer. :(
It's BECAUSE it's their job that I don't feel bad at all either hanging up or being a jerk to them. I'm a very polite person, even to strangers in the street, but when you know that someone is calling you just to get you to give them business, they're treating your phone line like some kind of TV channel to advertise on, that makes me quite annoyed.
I think, hey, if someone phones someone's house up who they totally don't know, then they shouldn't expect to get someone nice and polite on the line.
Man wtf, someone missed while taking a shit in the hall bathroom. Poo is all over the place.

I frequently find myself eating cake for either breakfast, lunch, or dinner when I don't have much of everything else, or I'm just too lazy to make something else.

Hey, Anonan00b here, with a frightfully n00bish question...
why is there this place - 4-ch.net
and a www.4chan.org as well?
I know 4chan has images and flash and stuff, but is there a reason there's two different ones?
>>469
this site is for lengthy discussions.
4chan is more for posting pictures or quick chatting, since everything gets deleted so quickly.
I agree with >>470 - 4chan.org emulates the Japanese site 2chan.net, which is an 'Imageboard' for posting images and discussing them - whereas 4-ch.net emulates the Japanese site 2ch.net, which is a 'Discussion' board for simple text discussion.
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!
>>470,471
Ah yes. I see now. For your help, I shall give you both an internet.
However, due to lack of bandwidth, I must mail you the internet on 3 1/4 diskettes over the next many years.
thanks! Enjoy the internet ^_^

Tomorrow is the first day of class and I have a online assignment due tomorrow and I have to go to a building on the other side of campus to get the program that I have to do the assignment on.
My online class tests were due Monday, but I hadn't received my book so I informed my teacher and she gave me until 9:00 AM Wednesday morning.
Received my book Tuesday morning, studied Tuesday afternoon and evening, fell asleep, woke up at 1 AM, and decided to take the test right then... only to find the links were dead. Crap.
HERRO I AM ON THE INTERNETS AND IT IS NICE TO MEETING THESE PERSON
bored@work
>>488 I was up at that time too. I'm always lonely, though, but mostly because people scare me, so I avoid them IRL, even though I like them, too. It's very confusing and depressing. ._.
Hello my name is >>486, i think engrish is funny even though i don't speak a drop of japachinmongoliowapanese
i am a total fucking loser
my credentials include watching A Christmas Story five times straight over christmas break and reading engrish.com religiously because it is hilariously filled with hilariosity
"you'll shoot your eye out!!!"
haha, even after the hundredth time it's still funny...my other favorite is "all your base are belong to us", i think it was from an anime
it cracks me up every time
AGERU!
wow they failed hard eh
I wound up buying the condo. It's pretty nice so far!
Nice stuff!
Nice body!

There are some great things on the internet. And by that I mean great pornography.
What is up with pornography? What makes it so morally wrong but still draws you into watching them?
Whats wrong with people who say that pornography is not morally wrong. What losers who wont admit whats wrong is wrong.
Whats wrong with people who say that pornography is morally wrong. What losers wont admit that pornography hurts noone and adults should be allowed to make up their own mind.
Oh yeah they're right-wing Christians lololololol
> admit that pornography hurts noone
That's not quite fair. Regardless of the effects of viewing it, I suspect a lot of the "actors" are badly mistreated when they're off-camera. It's depressing.
I think 4-ch has gone to shit. And I think I helped with it.
You see, I was one of the people who originally thought both /l&r/ and /personal/ would be good additions to 4-ch, as it would help it expand into untapped, potential markets. I guess that didn't fail.
However, the audience that came along with it...
>>506
Those boards are the reason I'm decided to stick around here :D
fuck this
I'm not going to read the rest of the thread and I'm going to talk to myself.
Girls are so pretty. I could sit and daydream about girls all day long if given the chance. Girls trying on different outfits, cute outfits, skirts and dresses, posing and modeling, thats so pretty but try on this one, the lavender top, it matches your ribbons, all day long. Girls brushing their teeth then reading on their bed before they go to sleep in my large black shirt with incomprehensible graffiti on the front. Girls punching me in the stomach, as hard as they can, when I say something mean. Girls playing coldplay on the piano when I'm trying to study.
I HATE 4CHAN /B/. FOR-EV-ER
Well there was this fob guy in my class today.
The teacher asked him, "How's it going"?
He said, "Verr goot."
I couldn't help but smile for the first time today.
>>511 My friend, I can't help but notice that you're addicted to wakachan. You should pay very close attention to the 'Special Interest' boards, especially Ribbon and Niche.
Remember, http://wakachan.org/ is superior.
This weekend I gave MDMA powder to my christian girlfriend. Later on I enjoyed watching her and her best friend licking each other's pussies. She would never have imagined being able to do such a thing. It was hawt. A good time was had by all.
I punched a wall because I failed an exam and my little finger broke. i got a cast over it, When writing the next exam I ran out of time because the cast was in the way. I didn't get extra time , the teacher hates my guts.
I promised my self this is the last time I act on my thoughts.
I have a question.
When passing on the street and someone is so rude that they stare at you blankly as you walk by, do you smile or glare, sneer?
They don't speak or smile, they just look at you with this unreadable expression where it looks like they need a drool cup.
>>517
Just ignore them, I guess. I probably frequently look like I'm staring blankly, when I just happen to be looking in a certain direction, and not necessarily at anyone.
>>517
Stare back. And if he doesn't react, keep staring untill he does. Then, we will end up being friends. Friends are good.
The problem is that they are not men, but these middle aged hags. If it were a man I might smile.
>>522
Then try giving them a ridiculously warm-hearted smile!
Alternatively, give them a superior scorn-filled look & smirk.
Might make them rant about it for the rest of the day.
I'm posting this from uni. Just finished a wonderfully productive games tech lab. Now I get to ride London'e lovely underground train. I feel sad for no good reason.
I can't help but feel that I've failed at life. I'm a senior in high school about to graduate and I've realized I missed out on many things. I never went to parties, never gotten drunk, never been in a relationship, never smoked or anything. I never bothered to join any clubs or sports teams. I've never been to any school dances and don't plan on going to prom. I have no idea what I want out of life. I don't have many interests. I've accepted that I'm a loser and that I'll never be good at anything. What's there to look forward to in life?
>>526
I feel that way sometimes too. Although I've done a few of those things, I do feel like I missed out on the general high school life. My advice to you would be to go to a big college and stay in the dorms. I would have zero friends right now if I hadn't gone to a boarding school my last 2 years of high school. As long as you make an attempt to interact with people, you're bound to find at least a few good friends. There's sports and clubs in college, too!
I just found out i got expelled from the top university in my country for the program I was in, due to my overall laziness and procrastination. I'm now posting this from work. I'm going to re-apply to another university come summer, but it just makes me feel i've failed at life by missing out on this great chance at graduating from a great university, getting the ideal job etc.
College is the place to experiment. First of all you start over, so you can make new friends who know to party. Then you can get drunk/stone/laid as often as you want (just don't get caught by the RAs). You can play sports in the intramural league, go to semi-formals. I still know kids who stay in their rooms on the weekend and play WoW while their roommate scores with a chick.
>>527 speaks the truth. College is a second chance - seize it! Unfortunately, I didn't... I didn't join any clubs or groups (except the anime club for 1 semester...) And while I may have gotten a decent education and I do have SOME good memories...
Definately live on campus. One of my best memories is standing in our dorm parking lot at 1:30 in the morning on a Friday night, drunk off my ass, bellowing the chorus of "Barrett's Privateers" and having my roommate attempt to teach me how to skateboard.
Don't think about the past, use the present to improve your current life. Think about what you want, and then do it. Don't let anyone decide or judge your life for you.
I'm in a similar situation, >>528-kun, but I'm looking on the positive side. I think my laziness stemmed primarily (well...maybe secondarily) from the fact that I really didn't want to study what I was studying. I rushed into it, and made myself believe that's what I wanted to do, and was scared to admit that I didn't actually like it as a major.
But now, because my grades were terrible (five fails in the last semester) I'm out, changing degree, and now I'm looking for Universities offering Japanese as a major! ヘ(^^ヘ)(ノ^^)ノ
PS: Are you in the UK, 528-kun? If so, how are you applying at this late stage?
>>528 here. I was originally set on a CS major, but now after examining the variety of jobs available to a CS grad...I'm starting to think i could be in a similar situation as you eg not really enjoying what I was studying. At this point in life, I'm currently a year or two younger than all of my fellow students, and I still have no idea what I really want to spend my life doing. Of course, this could just be a rationalisation to make myself feel better about dropping out. And no, I'm not in the UK - I'm in Canada to be specific.
>>533 - How weird, I was also a CS major, studying at the University of Toronto as a foreign student. I'm now back in the UK looking for alternatives, i.e. schools offering Japanese, unfortunately there aren't very many, and the deadline for applying has passed, so I'll probably have to wait until September 2008 to begin...sigh.
>>534 WOW, I have applied to both CS and Software Engineering for UofT, small world. And I also wanted to go into arts instead, but my drawing sucks and i don't have time to practice :/
My sister and her bf are playing on my compy. Hope they don't find my... private files. That would be awkward :D:D:D
I've had a cramp or something in my left hand all day :(
fuck fuck fuck! i failed a test i study all week for. and according the average, this was a pretty fucking easy test.
I made some mistakes and decided to enter university as a mature student. I needed more qualifications, so I've been studying a course at my local community college. In my classes I am one of two 21 year-olds; we are surrounded by 17 year-olds.
The kids frequently attempt to mock my interests, such as photography, design, programming, Japan etc. This doesn't bother me, but it does get tiring.
I am surrounded by morons. They are unintelligent, have no willingness to learn, are without talent, do not care about doing great work and are only interested in making a quick buck from 'this' industry.
I am in the wrong place. Hopefully, only for another two months.
Thanks 4-ch, I feel better.
Those 17-year old students you describe are basically what I used to be (although, I like to think that I was intelligent and talented, just lazy and not motivated) - hence why I'll be doing the same thing soon, applying for University as a mature student. (Probably as a 23 year old. =( That's really not THAT much older is it?)
>>541
I practically in the same case, but most of the people I know aren't that much older. But then again, it's porbably because of my major. (Engineering.)
I'm beginning to curse the day i first set my eyes on densha otoko. After watching the series, i somehow got inspired by it and started to feel for all those otakus out there. i really love the show then. Now, i get annoyed whenever is see my densha otoko files on my drive. i wouldn't dare to delete it cause i know i would regret it. the even more disturbing fact is why. why am i annoyed with densha otoko? is it b'cause of saori's overly cute face or densha's whining and crying?

3am in the morning i was in the library bathroom 'taking care of business' when this guy comes in and does uses the bathroom and leaves. however, when he leaves, he turns off the lights. fucktard...
why are people so gullible?
well i thought when i went to this site that there wernt going to be any memes! and wtf!
>>547
I never knew there were libraries open at 3am.
>>547
exact same fucking thing happened to me on tuesday. in a library and everything. there's no way you could use the urinal in that tiny bathroom and not notice the single cubicle was occupied, but apparently this guy was fucking blind. or just a tool.
I went to the toilet of a library at fucking 3AM and can you believe it those guys just leave the lights on all night so I turned them off. jesus what a waste of energy
I've had that happen to me before as well.
I guess if it was their own they would turn the light off before elaving, so they may have just forgotton.
Posting from work. Being on call sucks... especially when shit starts breaking 30 minutes before quitting time.
I really, really want to order a pizza and do some heavy drinking right now.
>>555
Pizza and heavy drinking... sounds really really niiiiiiiiiice...
So I just found out the guy I'd been crushing on likes me back.
In disbelief and foreign waters now.
>>552
I was studying A-levels, and I wasn't a jerk.
Scrapbooks, essays, projects... that's why I hate the end of school years. -_-
I don't know if that fucking bear has made things better or worse, really. Maybe it's the same.
Having a nice day so far. :)
Mou. I'm bored and lonely and it's like 4am so I should be asleep now. I had exams last week and they sucked, and I'm feeling really fed up about things.
I've got exams this week and I should be studying but i just can't concentrated. I'm so sick of it all.
And english is really driving me up the wall. It's so pointless at the moment. And we have to do it as a subject but I'll never use this kind of stuff at uni.
Ok now I'm just complaining but >>565, I know how you feel.
>>564
He approached me about it (not without the sound effects of his friends jeering).
He's not a bad catch. Too bad we didn't click (totally nothing in common makes for limited conversation). He's yet to cotton on though. I suck.
>>567
Go out with him once and see how things go. He'll probably get the hint that nothings going to happen and in the end one date can't kill you; it'll either be great, something to learn from or just something to laugh at later.
>>568
You know, I've actually done that before. Gone out with someone I didn't like, just so they would get the hint and leave me alone. It didn't turn out that great, I felt completely horrible afterwards. Not because I felt sorry for him, but rather I was sorry for myself. He was continually trying to feel me up and insisting on taking photos. Not to mention he was a stingy bastard and incredibly patronising.
But saying all of that, I would seriously consider doing what you suggested if it weren't for the bad timing of all this. Exams are here for me too, and at the moment I'm not really in the mood to deal with it. Plus I don't want him to lose his focus either.
Hope your exams go well too.
Stuck here at work today. Sucks, but that's what you get when you work for a retailer. Oh well, my group threw a 'because we have to work' party in the lab, so I've been chowing down on all kinds of goodies all morning. I won't be able to eat any lunch...
Did anyone just start summer session? First day for biology.
i cant talk to a girl i like for 9 months besides hi. GOD STRIKE ME DOWN

Okay, Anonymous B-Z, Anonymous A needs your help. I remember, a looong time ago, there was this website. A mythic website. You could type in the name of a band you liked, and in this cool flash-type display it would show you a whole crapload of simmilar bands, and diagrams of how they related to each other (with the most simmilar bands being the closest to your band's node). My question - does this site (or simmilar site) still exist, and if so, where???

I only have limited advise for screen recording
Google up 'fraps'
I've never used it myself, but it can record the screen.
Or, there's a nifty freeware app called 'Animget'. It'll capture frames and turn them into a load of .bmps.
Oh, and if you have a bunch of still .gifs that you want to combine into an animated one, there's the tiny freeware app 'UnFreez'.
AviScreen Classic does the job and is freeware.
>>588
Disregard that, for avi->gif I use GIF Movie Gear. Oh yeah babeh~
thanks for the help guys, I'll try them out!

I'm now an adult, and should get my driver's license soon. And get a fucking job. I've got holidays, but am stressed out as fuck. Oh, and my doctor is sending me to a psychologist, because I've reportedly got crappy mental health. This is gonna be a long summer.
Today I'm graduating from High School, in just a few hours. They had to make the thing so freakin' early. It's gonna be at the Apollo Theater which is pretty whoot. Didn't make valedictorian like I should've, but at least I don't let my father write my college essays for me and I didn't wind up pregnant like this year's valedictorian. Hrm~ Ah well. Yay.

Air miles, reward programs, establishing/improving credit rating, etc.
This is not an English word, why did you say it?
>>607
Service. You get paid for it.
If I ever go to your cafe, I will personally make sure that you work for every cent that I give you.
And then make you break me a $100 dollar note.
>>608
All right, granted, I never thought of that.
>If I ever go to your cafe, I will personally make sure that you work for every cent that I give you.
You mean every cent you give to the company? Fair enough. I get paid the same whether you show up or not.
And I work plenty hard, thank you. Don't think I don't just because I decided to bitch about my minor pet peeves on the Intercube.
>And then make you break me a $100 dollar note.
You say that like it's particularly hard or time-consuming.
That's some bitter green tea you're selling.
>We have three different green tea products - hot green tea, iced green tea, and green tea ice cream. Please don't come up to the counter and ask for just "green tea" and expect me to immediately know what you mean.
You would think since it's a cafe, "hot green tea" would be the default "green tea." I don't go into Satarbucks and ask for "Hot Coffee"... but then again I dn't ask for "Coffee" either.
>If you want the ice cream that costs more, ask for the one that costs more. Don't ask for "the big one"; they're both the same size.
Why does it cost more? Just wondering.
I'm in love with a girl.
I love her so much.
Kill me.
>You would think since it's a cafe, "hot green tea" would be the default "green tea."
You would think so, wouldn't you? Seems "green tea" means a different thing each time somebody asks for it, though. Ah well.
>Why does it cost more? Just wondering.
We put red bean paste on top.
>>614
No. If you're dead, then you can't go over and bone the shit out of her.
>>616
I can't even if I'm alive. And it hurts.

Awww, I remember back in the day,
I was in love with a girl too. I didn't dare touch her, or even speak with her. She had pretty golden hair and auburn eyes. Funny thing is, I don't think we'd have gotten along. Maybe that's why I never approached her. I don't make too big a deal about it. I think I'm pretty much over her by now. But jesus was I obsessed!
But now look where I am! I'm posting on 4-ch and I have no life! You should not follow my example!
I had the EXACT same freaking experience.
You are probably the story of my life.
I've been to 4chan. It's a great site; with lots of pictures, Anime, Hentai, Ecchi, Video Game Screenshots.... Just amazing. It's just that why the fuck do these people just like to be an Internet Jerkass? They complain about them, but sadly, their dicks also hold the instinct of being a dumbass too. And why the fuck are there a bunch of underage kiddies form Myspace and Gaia? I'm ready to lather these dumbasses in butter and let the fat people out.
Who's with me?
Don't worry Anon, good folks like us always pull through!
At least, that's what I'd like to think.
About the girl I like... I, fortunately, get to speak to her a lot, and I think she thinks of me as a great friend... But that's it. Words can't describe how much I wish she would just LOVE me.
Boo hoo.
>>622
you cant like to think anything
you must know with full force
Well, keep talking with her. You might be surprised, especially if you can be a little flirtatious with smiles/looks...
I wouldn't rule yourself out too quickly.
Today I caught a friend of mine staring at me whilst I was studying. I had previously turned down his advances yonks ago, and managed to continue being friends. But I was caught off guard by him staring so intently (he didn't stop when I looked up), that I responded quite rudely with "What?", coupled with a what-the-heck-is-your-problem expression. A little while ago he also questioned me about a male friend he saw me talking to. Again, surprised and creeped out by his intrusiveness, I replied in the same way.
On the other hand, another friend that I turned down is playing a different approach. Not long after the rejection, he is constantly asking me to introduce me to my female friends, or verbally checking out girls in front of me. I'm not jealous and I know what he's playing at, but it doesn't make it any less insulting.
"Stupid boys, throw rocks at them."
Soooo..I've got this lone pimple on the top right of my back.
It's been there a while, in limbo..not showing any signs of erupting, but remaining glaringly red. Never have I felt this helpless before. I can't smear it with Clearasil unless I stay half naked for a few hours, which I'm not willing to do in the middle of winter. Nor can I squeeze it because I can't see it long enough in the mirror without straining my neck. So it just sits there, getting a free ride on my back, reminding me every once in a while when I lean back on my chair, that I-have-a-pimple.
Elliott Smith made som pretty good music...
i have a repeat exam in 10 minutes but i have already failed one so its pointless trying to pass this exam cause i have to repeat the whole year anyway
SO SORRY FOR SO MANY JOURNALS BUT I JUST RIPPED THIS LITTLE WART THINGER OFFA MY LEFT HAND'S POINTER FINGER'S FIRST JOINT ON THE BOTTOM SIDE (the part of the hand you grab with) AND NOW THERE'S A BIG HOLE AND IT'S BLEEDING ALL OVER AND I PUT GERM X ON IT AND NOW IT STINGS LIKE A MOTHER ************************************************************************************************************************************ AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! AND I'M HOME ALONE AND USING ALL THE TISSUES OWOWOWOW OOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY! OW OW OW! FEELS LIKE A KNIFE IS DIGGING INTO IT OWIE OWIE OWIE :(!

>>I can't smear it with Clearasil unless I stay half naked for a few hours, which I'm not willing to do in the middle of winter.
Why do you have to be half-naked? Are you afraid of it staining the inside of your shirt or something? If so, can't you just apply the cream, then put tape over it, or a bandage or something?
does it take that long for the cream to dry? If it does, you should probably try doing this right after you shower or something, since that's the longest time you will be naked... or try attacking it with a lot of soap in the shower...
does it take that long for the cream to dry? If it does, you should probably try doing this right after you shower or something, since that's the longest time you will be naked... or try attacking it with a lot of soap in the shower...
just try putting the stuff on right after you shower so it has more time to dry as you dress
I just started college.
It's weird to have an actual life again after
being a recluse for the past year.
I've made friends and stuff in the first week.
And there's a girl who I've sort of been getting
on well with... we'll see what happens with that.
I'm actually happy with my life for the first time
in years.
>>643 why is suicide the only option? Is happiness that bad?
When your on top of the world and happiness fills your days, that's when you kill yourself.
Because when you're at the top, there's no place else to go but down.
>>649
When in the course of one night you are awarded all five Nobel Prizes (excluding "Peace") for that year, become International Supreme Grandmaster Mason of the Third Degree, and snort pure Colombian cocaine off of Scarlett Johansson's backside (twice).
>>650 But that's not happiness for all, for some, it might be hell. So it all depends on the person.
>>652
no, that is in fact happiness for all. it's objective in that regard. honest, scientists have run the numbers through their supercomputers and stuff.
Do you ever get the feeling that everyone's talking about you behind your back? The logical reasoning is that they're not, and to tell yourself that's you're not the centre of everything. But it seems to me that ever since I've arrived at this school, I'm always turning heads every where I go. I'm pretty average looking, don't have three eyes or anything, so I shouldn't really stand out. It could just be a case of paranoia, and me being insecure.
I don't know. Maybe everyone feels like this at some time.
Just had to get that off my chest 'cos it's been bugging me lately.
>>656
Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't all talking behind your back.
I resent placing my trust in the people I believe. How can a person say they care and then betray you simultaneously. Just when you move forward on your own they then try to stop your progress. They just won't let me be free.
I resent placing my penis in people I believe. How can a person say they love you and then suck your asshole simultaneously. Just when you move forward on your own they then try to stop your progress and cum instead. They just won't let me cum.
I was tired as heck today, slept through most of my 2nd class.
Oddly enough, I guess maybe cuz I was half sleep, I wasn't as nervous and reserved as I usually am. I was probably one of the main participants in my first class, participating before I even noticed I was, when normally I hardly ever talk.
I thought "Heck, if sleep deprevation can make me this much better, maybe I should start smoking pot or something."
Dude, I sleep at like three to five sometimes and wake up at six. Feel like crap for the first few minutes but the rest of the day is smooth sailing. Though missing 10 pages of notes in four classes isn't awesome...
Hell yeah, so lucky I got that!
>>616, because i could argue it's the true number and the post is better suited.
My manga downloading habit is to download a whole lot at once, read it, wait about a year, and then download more.
However, there are two (ecchi) series that I was really into last year, but seem bleh to me this year.
I guess I outgrew these types of manga? :(
I totally stopped reading manga... Had no time for it during finals last year, but never bothered to restart again.
>>672
yeah, I usually catch up when I have time whenever I remember. I think once I didn't read any online titles for 2 years or so.

I'm dropping my Econ 202 class... So boring... I don't want to do anything but math and physics courses... I learned everything from the book 2 weeks before even starting class, ugh.
If you like math, you'll love physics.
I think time goes too fast. How can I slow down time?
>>677
Have you seen that episode of Futurama where Fry drinks 100 cups of coffee?
>>675
Yeah, I picked Econs as an elective. It's boring, and covers nothing I haven't learnt from highschool, but that's why I chose it. It's my zone-out lecture.
I just saw 10,000 BC the other day. It was probably the most unintentionally hilarious movie in the history of ever. There was almost no plot.
It seemed like that was the point, just looking at the marketing it looked like they were going for another "300" type pre-summer camp hit.
Really? My friends were saying how cool 10,000 BC looks.... So does that mean we shouldn't watch it...
>>677
Go to the dentist and sit in the waiting room.
Ahhh... it's been a while since I've been on 4-ch.
This place is nice.
I like it.
Pity it's so slow. If this place were faster it would be the most epic English site on the Internet.
Who wants to suck my cock?
>>687
i can deal with that. as long as its not like micropenis.
It's sad, I only seem to find myself back here when I'm stuck at work, since most of the sites I regularly visit are blocked. Guess this one flies beneath the radar.
Hello 4-ch! I've missed you.
World4ch is down like the rest of 4chan at this moment. Did w4ch ever die with 4chan when 4chan died back in the days when it was separated?

I just moved to Kentucky, randomly. I wish I hadn't, I feel like a foreigner and I want to give up and go back home.
Also...there is nothing cute here, I am having cute withdrawal. I need re-ment and towel cakes and there isn't one store that is cute enough to sell them!
