Hm, this should be useful. Maybe I should make myself a cheat sheet.

Palm baby... don't buy the Windows CE hype... the machines are crap and they cost like $500

The m500 (the Palm I have) doesn't do Kanji input (only romanji IME), but you can install dictionaries and the price is right (24000JPY at Bic P-Kan)

Hm. I have been thinking about replacing my electronic j-e dictionary, maybe I should replace it with a cheap pda instead.

Words of caution: People should approach that lanugage list with a healthy dose of skepticism. Aside from some of the errors I saw in the transliteration and translation of some phrases, the list does nothing to advise people on the proper context in which those phrases can be used. Determining the proper level of casual speech in the right situations is a skill that takes quite a long time to learn, and such phrases shouldn't be tossed around lightly.

so uhh.. I noticed that this was for people playing Shadowrun. Do these insults carry meaning in the real world too?

Thank god, someone finally clicked the Ricochet Rita link! :D

sorry, I didn't. I noticed all the drek, orc, troll, elf, etc. (Shadowrun) words. Then I poked around on the first page you linked to and saw a Shadowrun logo...

That still doesn't answer my question, though ;)

I didn't know that the Relic Hunter was also a character in Shadow Run.
