How so? Do you have any real reason to say such things to me? Or are you just going to keep spitting out new ways to say stupid? I'm very interested in your definition of intelligence. More synonyms will just make me laugh at you. So if you want to make me laugh, please, by all means, continue rolling them out; however, if you want to make a point, please tell me what, that I have said, makes you call me such things?

Sorry kids, mah bad -_-; 'tis what happens when a high school spanish student gets a little froggey

... So, this thread has descended into some delightful off-topicness and name-calling. How about someone starts a new thread about how difficult Japanese is and we continue the name-calling there?

Aw! You're such a nice person :D <--- honestly, no sarcasm. I appreciate your level-headed attitude :) thanks! I hope your adventures in Japan go very well! I'm sure you will be a fantastic representative of Australia! :)

*twitch* must.....keep.....posting.....

lol, yer a funny little one.

Mostly, it's your constant use of personal insults that make you come off as incompetent of actual knowledge. Show me the intellect, and I wil gladly say that I was wrong about you :)

Geez, do you guys realise you are essentially arguing about nothing? Where'd that chill pill go...

Thanks! I'm super excited about it, and really plan to study up so I'm at the level I should be when I go. I haven't been to Kanazawa before, so really interested to see the historical sites.

Here's enough for everyone.

Really? That's your reason? Wow. I thought there was going to be a real reason. You connected incompetent to unintelligent? You consider me stupid because I insulted a person? Doesn't that make YOU stupid too? At least I had more than several one-liners meaning the same thing. If stupid is insulting someone, than it must especially apply to people who have shown no ability to do so at least cleverly hidden behind words past a second grade reading level.

AlanX, thanks. I really needed that chill pill!

I'm so happy for you! I personally think you're at a fine level. There have been a few students in my school who have gone to Japan knowing NOTHING about Japan or Japanese, and they stayed there an entire year in that state!! Plus, they were in high school, so I'm sure you'll be wonderful :) I'm not familiar with Kanazawa, so I can't really say much about it. As for me, I'm excited to Nara, because of the 1,200 deer there! There's a lot more that I want to see, so don't get me wrong that I'm just going to Japan for the deer lol! I've just been thinking about Nara all day lol! Have you been to Japan before?
