Did 3 of them already in the past two years, and was considering signing up for Pickleball.

      I sort of wonder if the next generation will still romanticize Japan in quite the same way. We’re past the peak trendy-products era of Weird Sony and the Toyota MR2, anime is no longer a secret exotic thing, and it feels like if you want “15 years ahead of us optimistic techno future”, you could easily slide in Chongqing or Seoul instead of Tokyo.

        As far as I can tell, gen z’s more into Korea, Japan already seems passé (being in a midlife crisis meme doesn’t help)

    Nani the fuck did you just fucking iimasu about watashi, you chiisai bitch desuka? Watashi’ll have anata know that watashi graduated top of my class in Nihongo 3, and watashi’ve been involved in iroirona Nihongo tutoring sessions, and watashi have over sanbyaku perfect test scores. Watashi am trained in kanji, and watashi is the top letter writer in all of southern California. Anata are nothing to watashi but just another weaboo. Watashi will korosu anata the fuck out with vocabulary the likes of which has never been mimasu’d before on this continent, mark watashino fucking words. Anata thinks anata can get away with hanashimasing that kuso to watashi over the intaaneto? Omou again, fucker. As we hanashimasu, watashi am contacting watashino secret netto of otakus across the USA, and anatano IP is being traced right now so you better junbishimasu for the ame, ujimushi. The ame that korosu’s the pathetic chiisai thing anata calls anatano life. You’re fucking shinimashita’d, akachan.

      Omou again, fucker.

      My sides.

      And I know it’s a copypasta and the bad translation is the point, but “akachan” is way too friendly for “You’re fucking dead, kiddo”. I’d go for “gaki”, which is a common part of weeb lingo and literally means “kiddo”, with the same connotations and all.

      True, true, this is me too. I’ve got to admit to having to hold myself back from a full on outdoor kitchen. But I have a nice grill and a huge smoker, and I’ll be here every weekend wondering how to find people who want to share 15# of pulled pork or something.

      I’ve actually gone overboard with cooking in general. Replaced teflon with cast iron and stainless steel, and a griddle top , and learned how to cook so many different foods from so many cuisines.

    I’m turning into a bog witch

    I’ve let like half my yard grow out and turn into a de facto butterfly garden. I’ve got a birdbath where I leave shineys for the crow. It’s going pretty well, I recommend it.

    I guess running. About 4 years ago, I started on the treadmill with an exhausting 30min/mi. Earlier this week I completed my first 7min/mi. Along the way, I added a 28min/5k@1.5% and am working on a 60min/10k (today did 62min/10k).

    I fell into running…hard. I went from almost no physical exercise to running marathons over the space of 2 years. Did my first 100km ultra in December.
