there's a legit lot of linguistic easter eggs in the japanese spoken version of anime. all the different honorifics but also if you're listening to what they say you notice that some speakers repeatedly use weird turns of phrasing. subtitles miss a lot of context. like there's stuff that isn't translatable without a big explanation box. so they just omit it. some words also have different interpretations. so a translator can choose the wrong version and the scene ends up not even making sense.
sometimes they also directly use subtitles as a way to censor what the characters are saying. so there might be heavy swearing or lewdness and they use tamer versions of words. not turning into a japanese fag. i dont speak it but you start to notice the patterns.

do you think it would be a cool feature if we could embed posts from image boards directly and reply to them here to discuss them. maybe a retarded idea, idk.

i always wanted to hang out with the emo kids after i left school at 16. i listened to emo/post-hardcore music and wore band t-shirts so i thought i might fit in with them. i used to see a group of emo teens and skateboarders hanging out under a bridge near where i lived but i never had the courage to try to talk to them. i never actually even got to be a teenager because i hit puberty late and didn't look like a teenager until 18-19 but by then i stopped going outside at all. my whole life has been wasted. no love. no friends. no fun.

i stopped talking to people online probably over 10 years ago now. i only communicate anonymously and never talk to people 1 on 1. i can't even remember the last online "friend" i had. it's just a fucking waste of time imo.

i remember on the last day of school i was walking home with the only other person in school who still talked to me. he asked if i wanted to go to a party and said some girls would be there. i thought for a bit then said "no". then the last thing he said to me was "yeah i thought you wouldn't" then walked off. i wonder how different my life would have been if i went to that party. i just went home and played an MMORPG instead. that was 20 years ago...

the final nail in the coffin for me was getting acne as a teenager. i was already an ugly, short kid but getting acne as well made my confidence drop to zero and i basically started skipping school most days. then after my acne started to clear up a bit in my 20s i was left with permanent acne scars all over my face which has permanently killed my confidence.

no girl has ever been interested in me in my entire life and it's 100% only because of my appearance. growing up i was just a normal kid playing outside i did everything my friends did. yet somehow my chink friend had like 3 girlfriends by the age of 14 and my other white friend got a girlfriend at 13. my friends weren't even good looking either just "normal" looking. yet not a single girl ever showed any interest in me whatsoever all the way up to age 16 when i dropped out of school and stopped going outside. what a cursed life i have.
