so…. You don’t say.
why this ketene does not wear a purse?
The cat is everywhere…
kawaii desu ne!
which is ninja for?
It’s ninja for “It’s so cute, you’d die, if ninjas weren’t already there to kill you.” I took a few liberties, but that’s the idea.
Yup! (I’m trying to learn Japanese while my autosampler runs.)
I wonder if Hello Kitty is secretly a ninja?
you know there is verb in Japanese for “trying out a new sword on a passer-by”
辻斬 (tsujigiri) is the random killing of a passer-by using a samurai sword. Testing out must qualify as an excuse for 辻斬.
Given the things I’ve seen on the internet, I can only imagine that they have a word for what we Americans call a hot carl.
I dont know about that – but they have a mythical thing about racoon dogs:

I would encourage everyone to avoid googling “hot carl” as I did.
I’m sorry, but LMAO!!!
(You can look up “pink sock” for more gruesome subculture stuff). Anyway, you must be doing somethig wrong if you never get invited to these parties.
My knee-jerk reaction to look up new words hath clashed many a time with the internet age.
As Richard Feynman said, the Japanese use different words for “solve” in the two statements, “Would you solve the Dirac equation” and “I will solve the Dirac equation”. I shudder at this complexity.
Bad. Bad bad bad bad bad pun.
I love it!
*dies*
I wonder, is death by cute more or less painful than death by ninja?
I’d guess more painful–ninjas are quick. And kitten claws are really, really sharp!
Stolen for myface.
