...some of you will understand this, some won't.

I actually thought "Do your best!" to myself when getting ready for work today after a less than stellar night's sleep - and MEANT it.

Shit, man, I think that to myself every second of every day, and I mean it.

It's not really a reference, it's just that "Do your best" is a phrase that everybody says to everybody here. They use it in place of 'good luck', and they use it in a lot of ways. Thing is, I can't say it in English without sounding like an asshole, so for awhile a few of us would just say "Do your best" in place of "well you're pretty fucked" or "I'm not gonna help you" - until this morning, when I thought it to myself and actually meant for it to psyche me up.

Did you give a peace sign in front of your face while you said it?

Let me give you some advice from experience:

When traveling abroad, 'pretty sure' does not cut it.

Ha, when traveling a broad.

That picture is fairly ambiguous as to the sex of that person.

Except in Osaka, where the greeting is, "Are you making money?" Random fact, Osakans walk faster than all other Japanese. Though, I'm biased for Osaka. I found its food much cheaper and better tasting than Tokyo's.

Yeah, I think I made that joke about 12 years ago.

Idc what anyone says I will always thing Yours is that Avatar of his.

Could have at least posted a picture that better displays Sora's badassery!

Subject: Re: How you know you've been in Japan too long Thu Jan 15, 2009 1:28 pm

are there any pictures that combine his "badassery" with his love of giant shoes?

I am almost positive that you can't be badass, and fight with a fucking key. Get a real weapon, or get out.

If you fight Jyo, just make sure he uses Kasha and you will always win.

Posts : 99 Join date : 2008-11-19 Age : 43

OMG!?! Not Tachi: Kasha. It is my kryptonite. I must have some hidden minus ACC crap on that fucker for some ungodly reason. I might hit it 60% of the time. And that's with 297 skill with a Sea torque. It's utterly fucking ridiculous.

Subject: Re: How you know you've been in Japan too long Fri Jan 16, 2009 2:41 pm

I hear you there is something about kasha that I always fucking miss... like if I'm meriting and I get bored and wanna throw a kasha it always fucking misses always.

Posts : 99 Join date : 2008-11-19 Age : 43

Yeah. Which is pretty infuriating considering that I have the maximum amount of GKT skill that you can have. I guess I could have a special Kasha gear set. Like use my Ulthalam's Ring instead of my Flame Ring, but that would just hurt my feelings.
