My mother's Japanese.

Either way, hard to say how right you are.

You'll be fine. As long as you look somewhat Asian then they don't care.

Now, if you look Cocasian, then they still don't care. Really.

Response to: So, I'm going to Japan in a month Posted May 12th, 2009 in General

Well, after just recently come back from Japan, there are several things.

1) Ride the Shinkansen. Riding on the fastest train in the world is pretty cool.

2) Visit Harajuku. If you ever want to see Japanese randomness, this is the place to go.

3) Go to Hiroshima. It's depressing, it's sad, but you need to go and see the memorial there.

There's too much electronic mumbo jumbo here.

Response to: Is torture legitimate? Posted May 12th, 2009 in Politics

The real question of torture is do the ends justify the means?

If you answer yes, then torture is acceptable. In you say no, then it isn't.

It's a simple question.

It's not the swine flu, but it is the flu.

Flu. Just fucking great.

Well, the problem is X, because as a variable, it means anything.

In your set of equations, you assumed x=1, but it can mean any number. So If I put in 2, it doesn't come out the same.

I'm out of town for a few, so see you guys on the other side.

On the off hand chance, I downloaded Google Chrome and WOAH

Yes, I did in fact just do a Keanu Reeves impression. You can laugh now.

Anyways, I read your review stafff. And once I see the movie, I'll kindly disagree.

I still like Colin's remarks whenever they do a Hollywood Director sketch. I use them sometimes at work.

That gut feeling... Posted May 5th, 2009 in General

You know that feeling you get, the one in the lower part of the stomach? The one that raises when somethings going to happen, but you don't know what?

Happened to myself today. It came when I was about to leave work. Sure enough, as I was halfway out the door, it came. Right on time, because as I walked back in to the office, CRASH. Car accident. Probably would of been injured, if not dead. Amazing thing.

After awhile, do you begin to trust it?

and frankly any argument of "i wasn't trolling, i didn't call anyone a faggot" is not going to hold up. If you say stupid shit for the sake of riling people up, you WILL get banned. This forum has a much higher standard for discussion and if you can't get your shit straight before you post and you think it's cute to go into a hot-topic thread and say some pig headed shit, you won't get a reaction. You will get banned and your post will be deleted.

That's very true, but the problems I have with reporting people is that the majority of the people you've described are the "post and run" type, and their posts to me on the edge. However, I do keep a little black book (in the back of my mind) of everybody's posting type, so I do know sometimes if I recognize a name if someone's trolling or like what you said, just being a dumbass.

If this is the case, the firing seems quite reasonable, I think.

It depends on the type of contract and so forth. From the information here, it seems illogical, but as with many other issues the more information the easier it is to draw a safer conclusion.

Response to: How similar are your families views Posted May 4th, 2009 in Politics

I would say I'm a tad bit more conservative than my parents, but as far as main political policies we're pretty much the same.
