FFS can you not write anything at all without mentioning Roger ?
every single post has his name in it over and over again and you are obcessed with him
It is getting really boring John .....he has gone....get over it.

I'm confused Tingra, John = Jake or am I being stupid ??
Regards
Nic

I answered this demand, yes? I didn't have to, but for the sake of transparency for the forum, I spelled out why I was not too pleased at how Roger could trash folk at will, and where were you Tingra, to say something against Rogers' outburst atrocities?.

I take it you agree Clarmonde is the equivalent of brain dead, 'cuz she is put on the level of butthead + beavis, just like I was. That makes me brain dead as well, yes? You didn't protest then, so why are ya protesting now?

Anthony was accused of being an obscenity and you tacitly agreed to that as well, yes? you didn't protest, how come? He reminded Roger of how uncouth it was, which told me Roger has no couth at all. The moderator has yet to say or do anything in this regard, which I find perplexing. How could I not mention the perp in all of this?

Every single post ya say, well that's a new one on me. I post to many threads and he never gets a mention, do ya mean I should have figured out a way to mention him in every post? as a form of liege homage? that remark is not very well thought out. How 'boot a bit of accuracy + honesty in the same accusation?

BTW Nic... I made mention way back when, my kids don't call me dad or pop, its jake, that's why I go by it. Its not my birth name as Tingra knows.

Tingra I hope for the forum's sake Roger comes back refreshed and ready to move on in life and take his place in society. I said, I don't hold grudges, but I don't kow tow to anybody, if ya can manage to separate those 2 concepts. We are equals on the planet, nobody is better than anybody else.

I will also remind you Tingra, this is Andrew's forum, not Roger's. he had free rein to do as he pleases and yet you don't protest ' boot that, how come? I confront him, 'cuz that is how he does his daily biz on Wall Street. Ya tend to forget, I have family who work down there. Ya don't survive on Wall Street if ya come across as a push over.

I lampoon 'cuz its my basic persona to find humor lurkin' in the strangest of places and that was Roger's achilles heel. He came across as bein' allergic to it, so I thought, well if he comes into the kitchen, he better be able to take the heat and come out smiling... ya see where that got him. Is he smiling now, for all of his bluff + bluster?

This post is a bit off topic and I apologize to the forum for coming across like a scolding school headmaster.

He'll be back for the simple reason this forum attracts many sharp minds. By default that makes TCP our resident RLC guru, unless somebody wants to challenge him

Sayonara, is rarely if ever used Hugo. It means - Good-bye in a final sense. "Mata ne" is more what you would say to a friend like - catch you later.
It's not "Jap" - it's "Nipponjin" or "Nihonjin" or "Japanese", - Gaijin San.

That was before I realised how serious this was. Oh well. Gomenasai Mina san.

Rain, that is why I slipped in the hari kiri, bit, 'cuz who knows what sayonara means to Roger? Is this forum a sort of practice run for those who wanna go in style ala kamikaze?

Don't open that door, Hugo.

Well ... それはそれは行く方法だ

Rain,

I have 2 daughters who love all things "Nipponjin". My youngest is studying it at Lund. My wife went to college with the Japanese lady teaching that course. My oldest dau took a crash curse in Japanese with her hubby so that they could be able to see the sights of Tokyo.

My oldest and her hubby went there to represent Sweden at a World Esperanto Congress. They were amazed at how many folks in Japan know Esperamto. They were so fascinated with Japan they can't wait to get back. I told them, take lil' sister with ya next time so that she can practice the lingo she learned in school.

The Japanese woman who is our youngest's teacher told the missus and I 'cuz our youngest is so artistically talented, she caught on quickly as to how Japanese pictographs as they are written and convey their meaning she was able to see these relationships and retain them.

A subtle variation in the stroke patterns changes the meaning, and if one is not trained to catch these nuances, ya miss their significance, and ya don't catch the subtleties of Japanese. I asked my daughter can she reverse her own thought patterns to match how Ingrish happens when a Japanese person translates concept for concept back into anglo.

She told me, its easier to keep them separate. Ya learn Japanese as Japanese, not to be translated. She said to me, ya don't translate what ya think 1st in English in order to speak Swedish or German, ya just respond to what ya hear. She made her point.

I apologize Rain if your cultural background is also part Japanese. Your commend of anglo is so good, one would never know if you came from a mixed cultural background.

It's not. I just lived there for awhile.
