If You Like Japanese You MUST Read This

But remember - I didn't write it. Don't shoot the messenger. ^^;;;

Raining some doom down on the doomed heads of my doomed enemies (aka: not shooting the messenger)

I have SO much intense displeasure at these people, it is uncontainable. It's a damn good thing this guy put a disclaimer down at the bottom of the page saying that he, too is a Japanese major, or I would have to caveat emptor his ass all the way to Honshu. It just so happens that I started learning Japanese in exactly the same way this guy put it at the start of this beautiful crap of his, and I am extremely insulted that this guy felt the need to write this. Sure, Japanese isn't for the faint-of-heart, but for God's sake, is there NOTHING to be said for the people who actually LOVE the language, and DO have the aptitude for it?? And dammit all to hell, the next person who says that Americans and Japanese will never be able to get along because the one is always laughing at/thinking themselves better than the other is going to get it right between the legs from me. I am SO sick of the respective cultures bashing each other, I feel the need to guzzle Pepto Bismol on a regular basis.

I'm going to go kill some crap in UT now, and pretend every single thing what blows is THIS GUY'S HEAD.

Addendum

I feel a bit better now...this guy was obviously attempting to be funny in his insulting little way. He was REALLY unkind to the Japanese... ::boot to the head:: The stuff about the different types of Japanese majors was pretty funny, though, I must admit, especially since I've known all three kinds.

...I'm still gonna go blow stuff up, though.

Grrr....

Please, you'll note this was all in fun. He even said he was a Japanese Major who was enjoying it himself. Leslie, he wrote what he did likely because he's been there two - he was prolly pulled in through Anime and/or his girlfriend. He prolly also has known each of the three types of Japanese Students. The humor is in the acuracy, ne?

I still like the comment that if you put "little" and "woman" together you get "carborator." Hee hee hee. Much better than his hollocaust remark. ^^*

Yeah, well, he ALSO said that stuff put together meant other stuff in Japanese that it didn't really, so I'm not sure I'd trust him on the "carborator" thing. Although I HAVE heard that if you put three of the kanji for "woman" together, you get "trouble"... ^_-

And yes, I see that it's in fun, and I mentioned above that I, too, have known all three types of those Japanese majors. Still - it hurts my soul to have somebody say "THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOU!" like some damned Adam Sandler scetch...I feel bad enough about my Japanese skills and ever fitting into the society as it is.
