I preferred the thread title as it was in Part 5 over the shorter version in Part 6, and so I decided to copy the style of the former. May this THREAD Restoration usher in a new era of peace, prosperity, progress and posts about current thoughts for /dqn/!
I prefer Christmas cake. (why, yes, that was a double entendre)

You're Caucasian?
Welp, there goes what little respect I had for you.
It's just like how women can't be sexist, isn't it.
Anyone can be racist and sexist...
Is ethnic nationalism racist?
Nationality =/= race, so no.
racism= privilege+power
people of color and women can have internalized racism and sexism, but since they do not benefit from it and the power structures behind it the same way a privileged person does it is not the same
What really gets me is when every kind of sexism towards women is called misogynist (this is a very popular use of the term in "feminist" circles), even though it really ought to refer to a fairly specific kind of sexism towards women (consider the man, for example, who is sexist towards women on virtue of basically using them as fucktoys, but is not necessarily going around with the "nah, I won't let you ___ because you're a woman and can't do it right" type attitude).
It ruins the stigma the term once had by turning the majority of human beings into misogynists. Oh the irony... feminism is about empowering everyone by denigrating nobody, yet here they are, ruining the language and we are powerless to stop it. Anti-bigot bigots are hypocrites, and have thus earned my ire.
Also the VC for this post is ho, which must be symbolic of something or other. I will choose to believe it is symbolic of this video, which is fairly convincing evidence that a bowl judgment of the apocalypse may have spilled a few drops prematurely: ttp://youtu.be/T6j4f8cHBIM
I really like her... but she identifies as being genderqueer, so maybe "her" isn't the best word.

But that's not what racism is!!
And people can have internalised racism (agains themselves), but they can also be racist against people of other races. Are you implying that's not true?

Ah yes, redefine the terms to a non-standard definition that suits your purposes rather than making an actual argument.
You'd probably make a good buddy for Richard Stallman.

Agreed.
So... um... anyone seen any interesting cloud formations recently?
No interesting cloud formations recently, no.
But it was very hot here for the past few weeks, then cooled off considerably over the weekend. So I celebrated by barbecuing some pork ribs. I did not do anything very fancy with them, though--I just covered them with dry spices and cooked them, and served them with pre-made sauce from a bottle. They were okay, and the leftovers are in the refrigerator.
Hot capillary action.
Forever drunk. What a feeling.
I find food a bother. I can enjoy it, sure, but I don't cook nor go out to eat, and I don't really have favourite foods. I have also had a bit of an eating disorder, I think, and it might not be completely gone.
It's probably silly, but I'm worried that I'll fall in love with a "foodie", since I feel so inadequate.
There is this cute girl I want to get to know better and sleep with, but the catch is she's extremely right wing. For some reason, this makes me want to do it even more.
>>432
My attitude to food is like a sine wave. I go from "ugh, food is a pain" where I'll often go a day or more without eating, to "I LOVE FOOD" where it's one of my greatest pleasures and I get fat quickly.
If you're very indifferent about food and don't mind a lack of variety, try eating something balanced but rather plain. For me it's usually chicken soup + wholemeal bread + fruit/vegetable smoothies. I've never bothered working out the numbers and I'm probably missing some important nutrient, but I regularly go weeks with nothing but these.
I had anal sex with Nagato Yuki in a dream yesterday, and I can't believe how odd the sensation was.
I have to ask, >>435. Did you stick it in her pooper, or did she materialize something or other and put it in yours? Because that's just how all of Haruhi's weird little friends roll.
I had a dream in which a dokyun was playing a puzzle game involving making children get off a rock in the middle of the ocean. It reminded me of Lord of the Flies somehow.
>>436
Good question. I actually slid it straight in her pooper after pulling her panties aside. Without any lube.
I kept worrying that she was feeling uncormfortable, though, and I was very hesitant. She didn't seem to be feeling any pain, though.
>>438 sounds sexy, but i don't think rocks can be sexually aroused
This board is named after the shorthand abbreviation for dokyun, right?
>>441
Prior to reading your comment I had never seen the word "dokyun" but I looked up and now I'm agreeing with your asking.
I just made a fool out of myself with all of those typos that I made.
I cannot stand to regress.
Firefox mobile is awesome.
I hate sluts and people should be more pure.
More shrines! More temples! More angel paintings!
I have known this girl for a grand total of not even a whole week and she thinks she loves me already. But I'm incapable of love or affection and just kind of feel bad for her.
So the other day I was finally friend-zoned by my girlfriend of over seven years, whom I got engaged to nearly six years ago. Doesn't feel as horrible as I expected, even though I still love her.
Ice cream! I wonder if I should tell them or not.

All I know is that I've repeatedly had the captcha image stay the same after posting, but the same captcha as before was not accepted and so I kept having to wait until I could refresh the captcha. Seems to be related to memory issues with my browser.

Man Finnegans Wake is a fucking FASCINATING book. I've been rereading it recently. It's surprising how much it changes, how much the book grows with you. I originally wrote it off as being just silly bullshit (that wasn't even silly!) but I feel that shows me much better than any mirror ever could. Goddamn it's so exciting.
>>466
Tokiko, have you only read five books or something?
You remind me of when I was about your age and I showed one of my friends some bad racing game for the PlayStation. He hadn't really played many video games before so it completely blew his mind, and for months he wouldn't shut up to everyone about what an amazing game it was.
Why are people on /jp/ still stalking and harassing me? I haven't posted there for months.
For too long have they stolen our time from us. Enough! Tonight the hours are ours and ours alone!
>>467
Not "Tokiko" but Finnegans Wake is perhaps the greatest work of literature of all time. It's not right at all to compare it with some "bad racing game" because it is the magnum opus of who is considered the best author in the English language. Finnegans Wake is an important book within the context postmodernity and, to a greater extant, in the literary canon, for its unique and creative deconstruction not only of myth and the metanarrative but also Western literature. It is not a satire of one specific book or one specific story; Joyce's Wake mercilessly attacks all books and all stories. It may be difficult to read, but that does not mean it is a bad book. Saying "Hurr durr this book is hard to read, therefore IT'S dumb" only makes YOU look like an idiot.
Fucking php.

A girl just (3.5 hours ago) texted me the following: "Heyy"
It's been so long since I received a text message that I really don't know how to respond... I'm thinking about ignoring it .
Why did I even bother trying to listen to American music again. Ew.

Chinese food is all about utilizing seasonal and locally grown produce. Because it's cheap.
CHEAP: The original Green.
/r9k/ is such an awful place why do I even go there.
Because you hope that you'll be able to (unexpectedly) anonymously talk there with your online acquaintances who wouldn't otherwise talk about their personal matters?
( -) That might just be me, though.
( -) People still go to 4chan
I thought /r9k/ was supposed to be some original content board? That's the #xkcd-signal one, right?
Doesn't 4chan have an /adv/ or am I getting mixed up with some other integer-chan?
I'm learning 1-2 new kanji a day. It's going well.

It was, but then it was filled with lonely neck beards who raped it to the point where it's nothing but a board to rage/cry about how they'll never feel a vagina.

I envy your steady progress. This summer, I learned ~300 and then forgot half. I'd study with fervor and dedication, if only for a few weeks, and then reject anything Japanese at all.
Are you following a specific method outlined in a book? Actually, it's silly of me to assume you're a beginner. What have your methods been?
Oh, I'm a beginner. I started this summer. I just look up Kanji on Saiga-JP, I really don't have a good method at all...
This is a very different kind of contentedness. Not better, not worse, merely different.
This essay on minimalism is coming along well, but I can't help but feel it's inadequate and I should start over.
>>491
Remembering the Kanji helped me for a while, but I truly lacked dedication, so now I'm not sure whether I should start all over again (for the third time). I have been considering following Tae Kim's Guide to Japanese Grammar and just learning the kanji from that. I may try that. All Japanese All the Time has a good list of links to Japanese things to do, though being on DQN you probably have enough of those. The site also supports the philosophy that one should learn Japanese as a Japanese baby would, but I'm not too sure about that. There's also a thread on our Film & TV board that discusses streaming Japanese TV, assuming you weren't part of that thread in the first place. Playing Japanese ROMS of most games is fun, as most of them don't have any kanji. The Chibi Maruko-Chan titles for the Game Boy are of the most interest to me. Sorry for the unsolicited advice. Truly, I spend more time looking for ways to study Japanese than studying it.
Strangely enough, when I get lazy and give up on kanji, I give learning perl a try. When I get lazy and give up on perl... Maybe there's a pill for that sort of thing.
>>492
That's not a bad idea. That's a good balance between "don't bother learning any kanji until you've taken at least two Japanese courses in college" and "learn ALL of the kanji before you learn the coupla."
>>494
Less is more, when it comes to essays on minimalism. You should write the shortest essay possible that gets your ideas across. And print it in the simplest, plainest font. On plain white paper.

I have seen many, many referrals to Heisig's method over the years. I have given it the once-over, and I agree wholeheartedly with the critics: The biggest problem with RTK is that it is exactly what it says on the tin. You may remember kanji... but that's all time you're not spending learning Japanese. It's time spent reading and thinking in English idiom, which is a surefire way to not learn a new language. So what the hell is the point, then!?
Not going to say that the methodology is all bad, though. Associating stories with things to memorize works really well and all the super-memorizers do it. But the best stories are the ones that fire quickly from your own neurons (dirty stories work really well). Or if (for example) you find ways to associate the metric shitload of kanji pronounced "dai" and associated vocabulary with James Bond in Die Another Day, that's another way of going about it. And there is something to be said for understanding the components that make up kanji; when you understand that comparatively few building blocks make up most of the set, it becomes much less of a deal that there are hundreds of kanji left to learn.
To sum up: for to learn a language, live her as she is spoke.
Today has been dreadful, but at least I can spend my last ten minutes of lucidity with my beloved.
