No, he doesn't. Elf thingy, I perfer to just call them Precursians as a combination of a lack of creativity and that it just sounds reasonable.

I seem to remember hearing a song by Hikaru a couple years back. One of my more interesting friends (she was 4'10", had huge eyes even by Caucasian standards, knew she was a lesbian by age 12, etc.) had me listen to a track on a burned CD. From the brief glance I got at the written CD top, it made no sense to me, being Japanese and whatnot... but Marsha kinda explained a bit - it's translated into something that sounded like "Summer Love" to me (in Chinese), and uhh... it was about how Asian girls used to seduce guys around springtime? I forgot how she described it, but I was under the impression that it had something to do with grass (the plant, not the drug), and that it was a cultural thing. Anyhow, just remembered what a Hikaru fan you are, and thought you might know what song I'm referring to (sorry; no clue what it sounds like any more), and be able to explain to me...? Of course, perhaps you're as bewildered now as I am, but I never really understood Marsha anyway. Her speed of Chinese utterance was beyond most people's abilities of comprehension.

I'm not making any sense here.

Anyway, getting back on topic, after reading your description, I would like to visit Taiwan. My brief-stop-over in Taipei was relatively pleasant, and I'd like to see more of the country (or the girls, anyway), I suppose that country is the third on my list of places to visit-- First of which would be Tokyo, for the games, manga, and girls, and second would be Hong Kong, for the cheap-everything and the girls (who may or may not be cheap). Of course, my knowledge of Japanese, Mandarin, and Cantonese is limited to profanity and bad pick-up lines, so I doubt I'll see any action if I do ever visit those places.

I don't know if it's worth going to Taiwan just to see cute girls, unless you're attracted to giggly arm-clutching teens in little ballet flats and oddly striped tops. Also, as a warning... it's much harder to find anything pirated in Taiwan, as we do aspire to being "law-abiding" (my foot). However, should you ever manage to make a trip there whenever I'm around, I'd be happy to show you around. I'm assuming the only places of interest to you would be 1) the bookstores where porn is easily available, 2), the "salons" *ahem*, 3) the game/comp stores, and 4) the girl-oogling spots. :D

Oh, a tip: If you're looking for any possible chance at a meaningful relationship or even friendship, don't ask Sega for Chinese phrases. :D

YES ASK SEGA FOR CHINESE PHRASES. He <I>wants</I> to know the phrases I know.

You really don't. Not unless you want to be bitchslapped and then kicked in the groin.

He likes it. Squirrelknight has a penchant for physical pain, so long as it's inflicted by Asian girls.

I... I have no idea what song you're talking about. The only songs she sang with "Love" in the title are First Love and I Love You (Both of which are pretty sappy, but they were early in her career), and I'm pretty sure those have nothing to do with seduction. As for the grass.. Um, her song "Sakura Drops" is about falling in love "when the cherry blossoms bloom", i.e. around Spring time, so maybe that's it.

And I've already asked NT to teach me some Mandarin, so I know how to say "I love your mom's small penis" and "I want to lick your nipples"... So, um, I'm sure I can hold me own in a conversation the next time I go to Chinatown in L.A.

I do have a strange tolerance for pain. I was in a car crash (not my fault, some gangsta guy in a stolen car ran a red and smashed into me, and then took off running before the cops came), and everyone was pretty surprised as I was pretty non-chalant about the whole thing.

And I think at this point, I'd be happy to have any contact with a girl, whether it's holding her hand or having her fist slammed into my face.

EDIT! - Oh, and as for Hikki songs with "Love" in the title, I forgot "Uso Mitaina I Love You" (A False I Love You), but that isn't even close to the song you're describing. Thinking more on it, it was probably Sakura Drops.

Maybe you just give off the impression you like wang.

Actually, quite a few people over the years have thought I was gay, so I've kinda gotten used to it, I guess.

So what are you doing, exactly, that takes up so much of your time?
Both my parents have cancer, my Grand-Aunt has Parkinson's, and her 76-year-old, diabetic sister (my paternal Grandmother, who lives very close by) is in failing health as well as begining to show the signs of dymentia. It's a lot of fun, here...
Oh, GREAT, now I have GUILT.

Del, Del, Del. I'm the one who's suppossed to have guilt (for some reason, I have a massive guilt complex -- it's like in a past life I ate babies, or something).

It's hard to get a job where I'm from. Fuckin' Ollie's won't hire me. Do you know what that's like?

I live in the biggest city in the county, and it's still Pennsylvania's answer to Skunklick Falls, Arkansas, or something. We have NOTHING. We have a Subway, a Wal*Mart, a KMart, we just got a Sears, and we're lucky the damn Blockbuster hasn't closed up yet. I find it hysterical that NONE of these places will hire me, even though I have chronic writer's cramp filling out the damn applications.

My life sucks and I'm waiting to die. Until then, I'm basically stuck here. In a message board. With you guys.

Don't worry. I have a little thing that keeps me going, I think it could work for you too.

Two words: "Insidious." "Revenge."

Seriously, the thought of becoming successful and then harnessing your power to ruin the lives of your enemies can be a marvilous way to motivate oneself. For instance, I'm planning upon becoming rich, then buying whatever bank it is that one of my high school principles got their morgidge from. After that, I find whatever thing I can to forclose upon their home and force them into bankruptcy. I'm an evil bastard, what can I say?

I take it a "salon" is the equivelent of a "massage parlour," eh?

And are "girl-oogling spots" fashionable districts, or nudie bars?

Perverted? Me?

Well, I never...

Perhaps so. It was suggestive as all hell (according to Marsha's translation, which may or may not be accurate), but I'm really not going to make any more assumptions.

...Know anything else at least? And if it comes out jumbled while you're in a Chinese restaurant, do let us know what dog dick tastes like.

#1, I would assume so. Or "barbershops" ;D.
#2, I would assume there are plenty of places to find girls all over the country, judging from the number of "inviting signs" in little alleys and walkways; I'm just not overly interested. But I suppose it's a lot easier to get action there.

Were you raised under any sort of Christian religion?

chriscaffee · Post by **chriscaffee** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 2:29 pm

Christianity never made me feel guilty, just taught me to take responsibilities for my own failures instead of blaming other people.

Baba O'Reily · Post by **Baba O'Reily** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 5:01 pm

Christianity taught me that I had to love someone's son in order to avoid eternal suffering.
But hey, to each his own.

Light Speed · Post by **Light Speed** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 6:22 pm

Christianity taught me that religion is retarded. Well Catholiscm to be proper. I still think I might recieve Confirmation though, if only for the money from my huge Catholic side of the family.

Zeta · Post by **Zeta** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 6:38 pm

Christianity taught me that a being who was supposedly all-knowing and all-loving would gladly let his creations suffer if they didn't stroke his petty ego enough.

Also, that I'm an evil, Hellish demon for not loving boobies.

What if you only like Jesus?
I mean, not like like Jesus, but you know, just LIKE Jesus.
I mean, I wouldn't be opposed to going out for a drink with him, it's just that I'm not going to commit to something like that. I mean, he's a great guy and all, but I'm not sure if I want to deal with the pressure that comes with loving God's son.

Post by **Delphine** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 8:52 pm

I suppose I should have said "Where you raised in a Catholic household", but still.

Christianity taught me that people don't know how to read books. "Love thy neighbor." "Okay! *blows shit up*"

chriscaffee · Post by **chriscaffee** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 9:15 pm

Technically that doesn't contradict itself, unless your neighbor is in fact shit. And blowing shit up is awesome just on general principle.

They don't count as people if they don't love Jesus.

Or if they love Jesus, but in a slightly different way.

Or if they shave their head the wrong way.

Or talk funny.

Or disagree.

Or sneeze wrong.

Zeta, do you find Jesus to be attractive?
Not to be offensive, but would you ever consider dating the big J.C. if you didn't know he was 'God's Son'?

chriscaffee · Post by **chriscaffee** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 9:53 pm

Jesus explicitly says your "neighbor" is everyone. So go fuck yourself.
