People who claim to like Touhou but haven't played the game are absolute fuckwits.

903 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6862 00:57

I'm tired from work, so tired that I don't feel like writing or masturbating. I don't like my job, but I can't quit until I have one that pays more.

>>902
I agree.

904 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6862 02:52

Wario Ware is a superior party game to Mario Party. Party games are the only acceptable form of "social gaming" for me. I don't think I could quite get into online shooters. The only downside to party games is you need somebody to play it with. ;_;

905 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6862 02:54

I have never played a Touhou game because I run linux and it would be too hard to get it to work in linux let alone patching it for English.

906 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6862 05:08

>>905
Why do you need English? Aren't only elementary school kids allowed to use translations?

There, I just translated every line of dialogue you'll ever see in a Touhou game.

* Are you implying that youkai eat humans?

Apologies for my atrocious grammar, I don't know what came over me!

920 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6863 20:15

>>919
But I wasn't asking a question. It was a statement, not an interrogative.

>>919
You [b]are[/b] implying [b]that[/b] eat humans.
Statement not question.

922 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6863 22:26

>>920 It wasn't a statement, it was a fragment.

923 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 00:30

I'm tempted to write a really big article whose main idea can be summed up to "fuck you to the poor guy who's going to have to write an essay on this 100 years in the future."

Only thing is, I suck at writing.

924 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 00:36

I want to read, learn, and exercise. I know they'd bring me joy and practical benefits. But my neuroticism and NEET lifestyle have made me all self-defeating and I try to rationalize not doing these things, even when I want to do them.

925 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 02:55

>>924 is mistaking NEET and Hikki. Since the first is a title while the second is the lifestyle he is describing. One can not have a Not in Employment Education or Training lifestyle since it is a title given to those who live in a hikki style rather than a quantifier by its own right.

926 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 03:15

>>925
Well, NEET carries certain connotations too. The Tokyopop translation of Welcome to the NHK! even defined it as a recent euphemism for hikikomori, though I'm not sure how accurate that is.

I just didn't want to call myself a hikikomori because that's a little obnoxious. Like identifying as a "hacker" instead of a "programming" or "coder". Feels like the kind of term that can only be conferred upon you by someone else.

927 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 03:29

>>926
I call myself a hacker, in the sense that I use something for a purpose it is not designed to do. See I have strung together various systems in my house to be able to control my TV and Air conditioning from my laptop connected to my server, however this does not give me access to the Whitehouses mainframe does it?
Using a term to refer to yourself as it was intended does not mean you need to associate yourself with the kind of people who use the term to pretend to be someone who has more power or skill than they really do. Saying that you are a social recluse is not something that should associate you with a group that is not in that category.

928 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 04:06

>>926
Also Tokyopop corporation is not known for their in depth research into pop culture, most of their descriptions are brief inacurate overviews and not actual definitions.

Why is being a normalfag so bad?

930 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 05:38

Ah... if only I could have chosen someone who was mentally sound to fall in love with. I wish she could be stable. Cheating and drugs and self-harm on her end, with a lack of attachment or affection for me, are all making me anxious... it doesn't make sense to care about someone who wants to destroy their life, but these feelings won't go away!

>>929
They're detestable. Also, back to the imageboards, buddy!

931 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 06:07

I come back from anime club and there's a Japanese monster movie on. This family is pretty cool.

932 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 06:58

I call myself a shut-in to avoid the drama associated with the terms hikikomori and NEET online. Shut-ins don't tend to have jobs and they aren't necessarily in their room 24/7, they just stick in their houses a lot.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBjsPhXhXl0 <-- Good song

What does it really mean to be a hacker? Do you have to program to be one? I have all kinds of little hacks for the way I do things, afk and ol, and even though I can't code well, I fit in with many of the hacker stereotypes and I feel I view things differently than normals do.

933 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 13:53

>>927
I should elaborate. I don't really have a problem with other people calling themselves something, as long as they're not annoying about it. For example, I'm fine if someone casually describes themselves as a nerd. But I'm not fine with most of these people.

This is why I try to stick with neutral terms that actually state what I am, even if they carry other connotations. Similar to how public organisations go from now-offensive words like "cripple" to descriptive ones like "wheelchair user", I'd rather describe myself as a "NEET" than a "bum". Or to follow >>932's example, I'd rather call myself a "shut-in" than a "hikikomori". Even though I can be described as all four.

Maybe I'm just a huge, pretentious hypocrite and I've let contemporary geek and wapanese stereotypes affect me too much.

>>902
I disagree. For many people Touhou is about the music, the characters and the massive body of fanon accumulated over the years. This includes even a lot of the people creating said fanon.
As for me, I bought several of the games only to discover that I die around stage 2-2 more often than I'm willing to put up with. So I stopped playing and went back to reading doujin manga and listening to the doujin music. If this means I am disqualified from liking Touhou as a whole in your eyes, well, fuck you.

>>937
I don't know. But I do know that both he and Gene Wolfe are Jack Vance fans. Almost all of Haviland Tuf's dialogue from the Tuf Voyaging stories are Martin's conscious attempt to have him speak like a Vance character from "The Dying Earth."

Oh god no not again

940 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6864 23:03

>>930
Oh, I know how that feels. Well, I'm not in the exact same situation, but it's similar enough. If only he cared about me again, I could handle the rest. Kind of like playing love on hard mode, heh. If only he didn't push me away.

I should really get around to reading Vernor Vinge's Hugo-winning novels, but I don't know what order to do so in. I know they're not sequels in the same continuity, but I've heard people say that The Peace War ought to be read only after having read A Fire Upon The Deep, for instance ...

943 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6865 00:32

I want to get more work. I want to work 70 hours a week so I can make a lot of money and never have to go home. I have no friends and I don't like being reminded of that fact.

But damn it, it's far more important that I inform Facebook of the video games I like! The Internet must learn about my obsession with skinning wolves in a fictitious Mexican territory!

They aren't /jp/ more likely /a/ or /v/.

956 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6865 17:14

>>954
I've linked /dqn/ on /jp/ on multiple occasions, or mentioned it. "Dragon dildos" is /v/ though.

957 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6865 18:05

You are definitely receiving the most traffic from /jp/ when it comes to 4chan. Most people from /a/ and /v/ would not understand the appeal of DQN, let alone find it.

958 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6865 18:20

>>957
True. I don't mind 4channers (most of us are or were 4channers at some point), just stop using memes I don't recognize! Otherwise I'll have to look them up and get irritated at all the Memes "R" Us sites that have sprung up lately.

959 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6865 18:56

>>958
Most of 4chan is a MEMES R US site now, well /b/ at least. There are some good boards, like /tg/ and /po/. But after the news started heralding it as dangerous and edgy all the emos started flocking to it.

960 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6865 19:25

>>959
/jp/ isn't like that, it's full of assholes. It's just that the fast boards are full of crap.

965 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6866 00:13

>>961
I don't think so... I have hormones, but I've never cheated on anyone before. Even though my kind-of girlfriend's cheated on me five times with two different people, I haven't wanted to cheat on her at all once.

It's ridiculously sunny here, and I can barely see any clouds in the sky. Yet the weather forecast claims there will be heavy thunderstorms with torrential downpours today.

973 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6866 12:05

Since we're on the subject... A while ago I told my kind-of boyfriend I cheated on him. It was a lie. I just wanted to push him away because of fear. Unsure if I should ever bring it up again... I've been thinking about it a lot though.

974 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6866 17:00

>>973
You may as well sort-of-dump him. Being told you've been deceived like that by someone you trusted and then trying to forgive them as they hang around is really fucking painful.

975 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-6866 18:29

I came across this ages ago and found it interesting but forgot what it was called, but I just came across it again, how delightful :3 Perhaps some of you may remember I made an audio version of the DQN Madlib thread when it was finished; the backing track I made for that was partly inspired by this. I connected the line in of my iMac to the line in of my macbook pro and recorded the gentle buzzing static on the macbook, and then literally got an erection when I realised doing things on it changed the tone and timbre of the static in little ways, such as covering the light sensor, turning the brightness up and down, mashing the keyboard, carrying out tasks in other programs and using exposé

Yes, but tap water that isn't full of limescale and chlorine, unlike the stuff from my own tap.

The "cold water" tap only supplies lukewarm stuff these days.

I think this is my first >>999GET. On this special occasion, I would like to regale you with my favourite quote about Japanese culture:

“The average Westerner, in his sleek complacency, will see in the tea ceremony but another instance of the thousand and one oddities which constitute the quaintness and childishness of the East to him. He was wont to regard Japan as barbarous while she indulged in the gentle arts of peace: he calls her civilised since she began to commit wholesale slaughter on Manchurian battlefields.”
―Kakuzō Okakura, The Book of Tea, 1906
