    yo khatz man thanks for da pickuplines, I knew that I can count on you.
    I just learned an other essential phrase the other day when I was at hookers and blow:

    おい、お前生意気なるなよ!!

    “Hey, don’t become raw spirits!”

    Oh no no, don’t you underestimate the power of the raw spirits, babe! ;P

    Damn khatz I’ve never even seen some of those kanji. Tried to put a couple of those words I’d never seen into goo,rikaichan, and even google translate and didn’t get anything…

      He’s using more traditional (pre-WWII) forms of kanji that you probably already know (assuming you’ve finished RTK)

      Basically,
      國 is the traditional form of 国,
      毆 is the traditional form of 殴
      脫 is the traditional form of 脱
      學 is the traditional form of 学
      and 會 is the traditional form of 会

    I don’t get this… are you making fun of computer translations, or are you just being random and stupid?
