Hahaha.

I'm curious about that image. Was that from an official adaptation, or is it a parody?

I guess it could even be photoshopped.

It's just that the "NOOOOOO!!!" looks so comical. I mean, the scene in the movie was comical, but not intentionally.

I think that's official.

I don't know. I hope it's legit.

So since my undiagnosed ADD kicks in everytime I want to open a book to study japanese, I decided I'm going to hire a teacher. I just need to fight the ADD that kicks in again everytime I want to call to set up the appt.
Why can't we get a machine like they had in Demolition man, that will give me all the knowledge while sleeping?

Have you tried Rosetta Stone?

The theory is that this would not work very well because your mind would be worn out from thinking while sleeping.

However, recall that they used to have those language tapes that you listen to while sleeping.

You could always go to Recall and pay for implanted memories.

It wouldn't work for the same reason that me studying by myself doesn't work. Add to that that I'm generally very tired by the time I'm finally "free" (meaning Lilli is sleeping). My lessons would be through Skype

Get a teacher to do it in person and they can slap you everytime you don't pay attention. It'll be hot AND educational.

Fiero · « **Reply #370 on:** Oct 27, 2010, 06:01:09 PM »

What if it is an ugly teacher?

Can't cause she'd have to come here and its a pain to concentrate with the baby and someone else here. Hence why the lessons would b at 10pm

joe · « **Reply #372 on:** Oct 27, 2010, 09:30:14 PM »

Whose baby? I didn't know you babysat.

Fiero · « **Reply #373 on:** Oct 27, 2010, 09:59:16 PM »

She had a baby, dude. She lives in Japan and got married, too.

joe · « **Reply #374 on:** Oct 27, 2010, 10:24:42 PM »

Really? Is her husband Japanese? Is her baby half-Japanese?

Is this Faye's husband?

Rodent of Unusual Size · « **Reply #375 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 12:50:22 AM »

"Hai! I yo baby daddy!"

joe · « **Reply #376 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 12:55:17 AM »

God, he's such a WWII-era racist caricature.

B E C K · « **Reply #377 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 01:37:03 AM »

Her husband's like half-Japanese or something. So her baby's Dean Cain. But a girl. And a ninja.

joe · « **Reply #378 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 02:41:06 AM »

What's his other half?

Mexican?

Rodent of Unusual Size · « **Reply #379 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 03:24:01 AM »

From one of the equatorial countries, IIRC...Peru?

lol you are such a douche, so because im latin it means im someone's babysitter? nigga i aint no babysitter, those biatches work for ME. (some day they will at least).

He's half jap and half german, all of the US' biggest enemies rolled into one.

Fiero · « **Reply #381 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 01:28:14 PM »

I think the more likely stereotype would be that because you are Latin you have multiple children.

Rodent of Unusual Size · « **Reply #382 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 03:42:49 PM »

Or the stereotype of you weren't pregnant last time he was on the board. Catches 'em every time.

Fiero · « **Reply #383 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 04:06:47 PM »

That is not a stereotype, that is regular logic.

Too bad he didn't have some Italian, too. Then he'd have the whole Axis Powers thang goin' on.

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #385 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 08:14:03 PM »

lol Nuri Italy doesn't count for anything. The only thing they are good at is making purses

Fiero · « **Reply #386 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 08:25:11 PM »

And pizza, and spaghetti, and such.

B E C K · « **Reply #387 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 11:37:14 PM »

And... Jersey Shore.

Rama · « **Reply #388 on:** Oct 28, 2010, 11:58:56 PM »

And there was that whole Roman thing.
