You would not believe me if you did not see it with your own eyes

Some of you may wonder why I spend so much time on martialtalk.

Well, I can't stand to hang around westerners who can't be bothered to learn the language here (i.e. most of them) and this kind of shows what a lot of Japanese television is like.

Do you think I can make this stuff up? :xtrmshock

Honestly, this type of thing barely sets off my weird-o-meter now.

 

[MA-Caver]

Yes you made all that up... geez what were you thinking man?


Who the hell writes these things for the Japanese anyway? Weird-o-meter got broken after "I was robbed by two men, I was robbed by two men, I was robbed by two men... (repeat)"

The URL for that one is definitely going out to my list of e-mail friends so they can get weirded out like I was....

I'll get started on it immediately, I'll get started on it immediately, I'll get started on it immediately... (and repeat).

:erg:

Japanese television is sometimes just bizarre!
The phrase, "I was robbed by two men". Who thought that might
be really important in the english language? Is everyone getting
robbed by two men lately?

You have got to be kidding me. People watch that stuff? Hello, Dr. Frazier Crane this is matt.m.

 

[Swordlady]

Okaaaaaaay...that was just...something. Is this supposed to be some kind of joke?

And now I have that stupid tune stuck in my head. Thanks a lot, Don! :whip:

 

[Shodan]

That's exactly what I was thinking.......great, now I have to spend my Friday with THAT in my head.......grrrrrreeeeeaaaaaattt!! :erg:

 

[Kacey]

Uh... interesting list of phrases... Language instruction for kinesthetic learners? Multi-tasking?

My main question is, though, can they say the phrases without the body movements if they actually need them for something?

My main question is, though, can they say the phrases without the body movements if they actually need them for something?

But why would they? It makes it a more interesting conversation to have them leaping around LOL Might frighten off a burglar. you never know!

I have just experienced the oddest combination of sensations...strangely aroused, and deeply disturbed. Same time.

I'm going to watch it again. Just to be sic about it.

[MA-Caver]

Yeah but how they gonna do the movements IN the cab to "let me off the next stop?"

 

[Sam]

I personally became disturbed around the "take anything you want" portion.
