People the Japanese accept: other Japanese

People the Japanese will not accept, but will like reasonably well: skinny white people

People the Japanese generally dislike: other Asians, Hispanics

People the Japanese hate: black people

At least you're not at the bottom of the list?

I agree, it's like yes finally we're gonna get some character development and then what follows is more smut. It has potential but it's just not being used and I agree the sex is getting to be a bit too much.

you know, sometimes music makes sense. I had a teacher who taught Latin texts by putting them to modern music. I still remember some of it.

Maybe it's because she presents herself well to people. No matter how hot you are, if you can't speak correctly or understand social cues then you are dead meat. Maybe people find her interesting and engaging and her looks are just the cherry on the cake.

What are you talking about? The kink meme is very active and each week there will be 200+ comments on the episode discussion post. As for fanfics, I get more hits, comments and kudos from this fandom than I do from any of my other fandoms, including Yuletide fics.

On the other hand, I've tried Tumblr before for T&B but all I found was re-posted art from Pixiv and macros.

There's all types in Japan, you know. I know a lot of young women who are totally gaga for K-pop idols and studying Korean and the whole nine yards but there's also a lot of old conservative racist stogers. Among young people I think people are more receptive than not, though.

If you want to go to Japan you have to accept the mixed bag. And honestly no foreigners are going to get fully "accepted" into Japan in the near future. They'll always see you as an outsider. And that goes for anyone who isn't 100% born and raised and ethnically Japanese. If you can handle that, though, you can still live well there and make lots of friends.

I love Japan and their culture, but this is the very reason I would never want to live there long term.

What do you mean he was miscast? Honestly, I think he was 100% perfect at playing a guy who's seventeen, been stuck at seventeen, and who's been a virgin that whole time. Plus I bet he's too polite to ever consider getting a prostitute to help him out with his ~problem, so he's been a virgin for how long?

(It's my headcanon that he's a frustrated virgin during all the books... Plus he lives with three other couples? Yeah... I think that Robert Pattinson was bloody brilliant at portraying this.) :3

Well, it's a strange fact of the HDM-verse that it's been x-overed with every conceivable fandom at some point. I suppose that's not so surprising, considering alternate/cross-universes are part of its canon.

There are horror fandoms?

Yes. Yes, we are. Fuck off!

I don't know them: but hold on to that feeling. It's more precious than you know. And for the love of all that you hold dear - do something with that feeling!

I didn't mind Peeta that much. Sure, he has Sue-ish qualities, but I think he's completely overshadowed by the Sueness of Prim. Good god. Absolutely everyone nation-wide adores her, she's pretty (the more noble kind of pretty in this universe, not like Katniss or her father), she's a competent "born" healer, she's nice to everyone, she cares about all living things, and her main flaws are... being too compassionate (and that's Katniss speaking, who's rather cynical) and not being a person who could/would survive the hunger games, and not being a good hunter. Katniss mentioned that she gets scared easily, but this is contradicted by her rather brave actions in book 3, for example. And yes, this could count as character development, if only Prim had been a well-developed character to begin with. All we know about Prim is mainly from Katniss's gushing about her.

Also, she's named after a flower, but it's an innocent name, unlike Glimmer, or Cashmere, or whatever the people in district 1 and 2 were called.

You know, I lived in Japan for quite some time and never faced any outright hatred or malice. There was a lot of awkwardness, sure. But I think a lot of this "foreign hate" comes from a lack of understanding and a "freak out" that many Japanese people have when they are confronted with foreigners. Japanese Pride might sound like an outdated concet but it is still very relevant. Many Japanese people don't want to be made a fool of in front of others, and not being able to speak the appropriate language towards a foreigner embarasses many of them. So they come off as rude or aloof towards foreigners, instead of risking being made a fool of.

I think the worse I came across was when a landlord was unsure as to whether he wanted to let me rent his apartment or not because my "foreigness" might clash with the other tenants. But I explained that I could speak Japanese and that he was under no obligation to let me stay there if he truly was uncomfortable with it, so he ended up letting me live there and we are now quite close friends.

But apart from that, I think every foreigner should just accept that sadly, not everybody is going to accept them (not just in Japan, but in EVERY country). There are still many racists out there, but the vast majority of people ARE good people who do not harbor such thoughts.

I admit that I haven't played it in a while (I tend to watch my brother play most of the time as all of the gaming systems in the house are his) but I don't remember this being particularly easy or difficult. But, as I mentioned to [livejournal.com profile] cybersky, I've never been much of a gamer, so my opinion on what is or isn't difficult in a game is probably irrelevant.

It was an attempt at humor?

[identity profile] captain-emily.livejournal.com 2011-09-13 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
I have. If they suck, I can donate them and make some little kid happy. It's a win-win.

You need better/more accepting friends.
My metal friends know about all of my horrible musical tastes, and all of them have equally embarrassing bands/genres that they like too. We'll poke fun at each other for certain things, but in the end no one gives much of a fuck regarding whether you listen to metal and kpop or just metal alone.

(Anonymous) 2011-09-13 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
I agree! But I don't like to be around for the Natsume threads which usually devolve into how many people want to fuck Natsume and such. It was funny at forst but now It's all people talk about. :/

[identity profile] loracarol.livejournal.com 2011-09-13 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
Do you ahve any reccomendations? :3

I'll definately have to start trolling ff.net for these kinds of fics, now. Sounds like fun. <3

(Anonymous) 2011-09-13 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
Well it's pretty much accepted canon so even if you don't like it, you are going to have to live with it.

The paradox of an anon secret maker calling another anon a coward.

This used to be me at age 15. Well with dance music versus metal/rock. Fortunately, I grew out of it. So did my friends.
