Japanese forces kill 440 civilians!

[den4]

havin' been called Jap and Chink and gook and Taco a few times because some white dude can't distinguish between Asian and Hispanic is a bit disturbing...although those names really don't bother me anymore, but, yeah, must say that they are usually used in an offensive way, and can only generate resentment/anger towards those that use it....

and have to also agree with Gai that very unlikely kotatsuneko would call him a Jap to his face, without meaning it as an insult.....

but, yeah, you people need to chill....nothing good comes out of negative ads like this, unless you seriously need to vent....

Okay Den and Oyaji. In the words of another forum fave: word is bond!

Thanks,

PS: Anyway I really think this kotatsuneko is full of bs. I hadn't read much of his gibberish until his Jap comment. I assumed he was Aus/NZ because the white trash down there tend to throw that word around. He claims to be from the UK but having read some of his other crap, his writing style and content really sound American. Yep, I think this dumbass may be one of ours. More blue on blue fire. But what a total imbecile. He also claims to be married for 7 years which means this dope is more than likely over 30 and has lived in Japan for several years. How can anybody who has lived in Japan not understand that the word Jap is loathesome. My view is that this is some dopey kid from Buttfuck who may not even be residing in Japan (or has only lived there for a short time). If this isn't true he is one of the all time king dumbasses of the century.

while I've met some idiots from every country that made their way into Tokyo, wouldn't go so far as making blanket statements for their entire nation, since nobody has a monopoly on stupidity and insensitivity or boorish behavior. Although I find that certain corporations tend to be closer to that monopoly than some of the nations that have subscribed to racism in the past...

think for every 90% of the cool people that I've met in Tokyo from various countries, I have come across at least 10% that do fill the role of the ugly gaijin (or f'd up one, if you prefer)...and for the latter parasites, I'd have to agree with Gai's assessment of the jerks.....because they are really bad apples that just exquisitely ruin their nation's view by their representation...

haven't hung out in Tokyo for a few years now, so I'm not sure about local sentiment these days, but from what I gather from friends that still live there, seems like there's a massive black cloud of depression going on with the war, the sucky economy, and the increase in f'd up nihonjin that are into weird crimes that never occurred when I was still living there....so, perhaps the stress level has increased in that pressure cooker of Tokyo.....

however, that doesn't explain why some of the weird crap is happening outside of Tokyo and in the suburbs....

Still, getting back on the topic again, would be nice to see folks some other interesting topics here again that doesn't involve flaming each other....that's far too easy these days, and it's much harder to find them interesting topics that doesn't result in simple name calling in the end....

alternatively, I must say some of the ingenius ways people are flaming each other these days are quite interesting as well....you guys ought to write a book called: From the pages of F'd gaijin or something like that....may be a great best seller with helpful links for the really f'd up gaijin to help them with their daily lives....kind of like a Hitchhiker's guide for the lost souls in Japan....

oh well....just a thought...

Ramchop, get real. Nobody in the fucking world gives a shit about Australia/New Zealand. Down under all the sheep are nervous. That's all.

Funny that you'd waste your time researching the convicts to Australia link then. Nice to know that at least you care.

[GomiGirl]

Ahem.. so there are no racial slurs allowed - but personal flames using language that I am sure you would not use in front of your mother is OK? Come on Gai - stop being a hypocrite..

[Andocrates]

I think the "jap" thing is confusing. Japanese people use that word to me, "Mike your jap is good." I winch, but what can I do? It's like poor white kids, they immerse themselves so deep in hip-hop that they start calling themselves nigger, it's really humorous to see a couple skinny white kids saying stuff like "yo, nigga you cray."

You can make anyword a slur with a little work, I think you have to go with your gut feeling.

[den4]

Just because you're talking to an ignorant J-person who has never been called a Jap in an insulting fashion, I still think it still it's valid that for anybody else, the usage will still come off as insulting....
Lot of times I've found lots of things the J-person would say, out of basic ignorance (not that they are stupid or bad or have ill-intent), was not the smartest thing to say or do in a given situation....good example is all the engrish in J-land.....just because it's in engrish doesn't make it good English...or appropriate.... :P

Pot; kettle black.

Sweetie, perfectly acceptable to call an individual a moron. Also, perfectly legitimate to say that Australians have, in general, some characteristics that are reprehensible. Insulting someone's race is a completely different thing. Race means little.

But where you grow up does have meaning. You grew up in a sewer (dumping ground). I grew up in a country.

Name three. (defending Australia? this is weird. )


Where you grew up vs racial slurs. Are you saying it's OK to make insulting generalisations about Japanese born Japanese?

Just giving you billy goats what you love to dish out. I would love to have at least one penny for every ignorant anti-American comment I have heard over the years (particularly from the foreign riff raff contingent in Japan). Most Americans just let it go. I will not. Most Americans do not know anything about your pathetic little countries and cannot respond in kind. I, on the other hand, do a lot of reading and traveling.

You will get no quarter from me. You descend from horse thiefs and whores and stole that land from the people you so kindly deride as "aboes."

Love,

Gaisaradatsuraku.

PS: To answer your question, I think it is perfectly acceptable to remind folks of the many faults of their own countries when they blandly take pot shots at America. On the other hand, I don't make racial comments because race, unlike nationality, means virtually nothing.

Oh yeah, to answer your other question:

1) Annoying accents.
2) Annoying accents, and
3) Annoying accents.

this above statement is a classic of an arrogant "person": its OK for me to insult you based on nationality.. but not for you to insult or even suggest an insult to my inferior complex.

Back to the topic.

well we have seen this all to much, japanese just giggle when they say have you eaten whale?? teehee teehee.
I saw whale on the menu in a restaurant the other day, i`m sorry to say that this and many other acts on DENIAL, make these people the most DISHONEST society in the world.

they it seems are shameless.

Are these original insults? Well read and well travelled, maybe. But you truely think these comments sting? How many times have the Aussies heard these remarks by their trans-tasman cousins? How many times have the "sheep-shagger" comment been thrown back in return?

You think you're being clever? You're ignorant.


I do agree with the annoying accents (though there are many quarters in America with equally grating speech), but is that really the best you can come up with for "reprehensible"?

OK - you are a moron!!!

Okay, I will try it again. Here is another example of acceptable insult:

And you, my dear, are clearly functioning in a Xanax induced state of delusion and are the offspring of horse thiefs and whores...etc.

Toodles!

[GomiGirl]

The difference is that mine was accurate and you know it too.

[tidbits]

Through my work experiences, the Japanese don't like to be called as 'Jap' and don't even like to see his nationality written (or printed) -Jap.

[kotatsuneko]

guess my experiences have been different..

i have worked for the japanese firms nintendo, sega , namco and snk in the uk, all with large amounts of japanese staff..

jap was used mostly by them, and adopted by the uk staff, the word japan/japanese is used so often in the games industry, so 99% of people in it , in the uk at least refer to a japanese product/thing as "jap"..

i was pretty active in londons japanese community, and there also most people i met would refer to japanese things/foods etc as "jap", and more often than not people "is he jap?"

i dont know why anyone would take offence at it, it surely doesnt have the connotation as say "chink" does..

anyhow, they sure have enough derogatory terms used daily such as "itako", "beijin" etc ...

like i say, this is just my experience... oh and fuck off again to that stupid racist who thinks he knows it all about japan, and seems to think theres something wrong/freakish/ stupid about loving j pop culture...

here it is again "F u c k o f f R a c i s t F o o l"

ah that feels better...

Listen you dickhead, nobody believes a word of this nonsense so why don't you fucking just blow me. Maybe you would like that since your fat wife isn't giving you any. You are one of the few people I have met that is absolutely beneath my contempt.

You are refuse among refuse you Jpop bitch games player. An utter loser in life and business I don't have the desire to call you a bitch.

YOU BITCH!

Well there is always one for the road.

So long you British imbecile with yellow teeth.

[Gaisaradatsuraku!]

Is this guy dreaming or what? Itako? I have never even heard of this word and beijin (I assume meaning American) is also a word that is basically never used in verbal speech. Besides "beijin" conveys no insult.

If you wanted to give some of the words used in Japanese that are derogatory at least choose the right ones you moron. You could have listed shironboo or ameko or some others. But that would require effort and dumbass UK citizens residing in Japan are not known for their diligence.

Cheerio!

PS: I have never in my life heard a Japanese person (young or old) as a Jap except when being sarcastic. What planet is this guy from or is the Japanese community in London as dumb as their hosts?

[den4]

Yep, I guess so....

Although I won't go through the hyperventilation that Gai does, I guess it just goes to show you that them J-folks that live and work in the UK go under a different system, or they've just never been called a Jap in an insulting manner, something that would far different in the US. Of course, if those same folks did come to the US, and particularly on the west coast, and started talking like that, I'm sure they would be "re-educated" fairly fast, unless the person is a complete moron.....and there are plenty of those on the west coast....but, since no country has a monopoly on the moronic in society, it might also be said that the J-folks that use Jap with indifference could just as well be socially inept, socially insensitive, sucking up to the British natives, or are just plain part of the moronic pool anyway.....
Hmm.....it could also be that the Brits have a different value system than what I have experienced in the US....
Can't say I'm being overly sensitive, unlike other asians, who would find fault at the mere mention of a racist comment, but I can say that at least on the west coast, calling somebody a Jap would be considered racist...
Something to consider if you ever get stuck over here on a biz trip or something....
just an fyi is all....what you do with it is your own issue.....
