I just realized, if Dr. Strangelove were Japanese, he'd be Dr. Hentai.
My friends and I had a discussion about truckers and 'truckstop girls,' and how they all had funky callsigns on CB radios. According to one guy, all the callsigns were spices of some sort, so we started tossing out spice names. Oregano wasn't really a keeper, nor was Thyme or Basil. But then Jay said, "Wasabi."
I took Japanese for two and a half years, and it ruined my GPA. Well, more accurately, my girlfriend dumping me the night before a Japanese final exam (and only 8 days before Christmas) ruined my GPA. But now the basics of it are very simple to me, and I'm able to help one of my friends who's taking it now, named Dave. It's very amusing seeing him curse at the textbook for being too foreign.
His vocabulary is rather limited, and he only knows about 30 words, plus things he picked up from anime. So last night I was trying to show him how to use 'no' to make a noun possessive, and my friend Neil had just come into the room. I said, "Neil-san no hentai wa takai desu." Not completely accurate, but Dave only knows three Japanese adjectives. And I didn't know how to say "is an eight-inch high stack under the sink in his bathroom."
Neil, who also took Japanese, casually flipped me off and went to reheat his left-over teriyaki in the microwave.
