What are /r/weeabootales' favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I commented on the "ISIS used to be otaku" post. Here is what I said:

>Actually, Isis is an Egyptian goddess. http://www.britannica.com/topic/Isis-Egyptian-goddess You claim to be Christian, but your belief that Isis was real clearly disproves that. Isis is not real, therefore cannot be an otaku

heeeeeyyyy I know it's a little thing but what bothered me most about that ringtone/song was she said the "u" at the end of desu. When I was stationed in Japan when I was learning what I called "drunken japanese"(original I know; basically shit I could say to cab drivers to get my ass home or back to base when i was wasted). One of the first things my friends taught me was "YOU DON'T SAY THE U AT THE END OF DESU"...I can still hear them yelling at me. Funny thing is since I learned at lot of my Japanese from girls, the guys I hung out with said my accent was "cute"...or they might have been gay I dunno. I wish I would have stayed with it and learned the language...

other than that I found this list http://www.listal.com/list/japanese-l-film on google (I turned safe search on) hope this helps.

While dailymail is shit, the ribbon thing is trending pretty fast as a meme.

ANN's article has some good examples.

She did a great job for the One Piece Movie Z theme songs she made though.

>it is not at all necessarily feminine actually

Which would be why I used a slash. In a casual context, it's feminine. Whether this is casual or not is a more nuanced question.

>Also eto should be etto or etto or some similar variation

There are enough ways to say it (although none I can see with a とう) that I really didn't feel confident correcting it only to be told another form was more standard or whatever.

Well, Naria was a character in Escaflowne since 1996, but besides that it doesn't seem to show up. Now there's Mahou Shoujo? Naria☆Girls, but that doesn't seem to be a character name. Jisho.org lists it as a female name, though.

欠(けつ)？ http://jisho.org/word/%E6%AC%A0

You mean ケツ https://www.google.com/search?q=%E3%82%B1%E3%83%84+%E8%8B%B1%E8%AA%9E&rlz=1C9BKJA_enUS590US590&oq=%E3%82%B1%E3%83%84+%E8%8B%B1%E8%AA%9E&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l3&sourceid=chrome-mobile&espv=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en-US

Her reasons are actually really interesting. She was homeschooled and, honestly, just wasn't properly socialized despite having siblings and being a member of a homeschool group or whatever. She was always very tomboy-ish and claims a lot of bullying (which I might believe). So, her way to reclaim her agency was to be hyper-feminine.

I wasn't home schooled but boys never really liked me until I hit about 20, either. My methods were, essentially, the opposite. I chose to focus on school etc and how to be put in positions of leadership. I don't want to woo, I want to direct. She's all about being senpai or something - I swear to Gog, she thinks she's the protagonist in an anime.

Again, I get where she's coming from with the loli shit, but quit fucking pushing it on me. I agree with you, I think it's kinda creepy, to be perfectly honest, and you're an adult. Why are you going out in public dressed like this?? She's on the right, I'm on the left - and was forced into it. While I was trying to fucking celebrate getting accepted to grad school. I'm still a bit upset, honestly. Also, that wig. Girlfriend. Plz. Stahp. ;_;

Yes, in words like 子供 certainly. However, 電子 is pronounced denshi and there are quite a few examples of different readings 子, for example 様子 (state) pronounced ようす. Regardless, if you mean an electronic dictionary, it's called a 電子辞書 (でんしじしょ) and not a 電気辞書 (でんきじしょ), as in the website http://jisho.org/.

>I think I managed to ask total weeabooism because my interest in Japan also had an academic slant to it; I wanted to learn about Japan's culture

I'm not saying your a weeb, but how is this a disqualifier? This is something that weebs say all the time. In regards to other things weebs say:

>I'm 20 years old and I still call very cute things "kawaii" (babies, puppies, Pusheen, etc.) and out of affection I still attach "-Chan"

What's wrong with using the word cute? And do you use other honorifics or only that one? Would you use -sensei for someone you want to learn from? I'm just surprised when people use Gratuitous Japanese but don't bother to learn more of the language and just speak full on Japanese sentences. Do you use them because they remind you of anime, or because you think they sound cool? Do your friends also use gratutitous Japanese/honorifics or is it a one-sided "oh you!" kinda thing?

>I DID submit a chapter of a fanfiction I wrote for a writing workshop class

This isn't weebish, this is just smart. You already wrote something, I hope you got a good grade on it. Writing fanfiction isn't exclusive to weebs, just hardcore fans with a penchant for writing.

>how I was enamored with Greek mythology in 3rd grade

Coincidentally, I was too. I read this book specifically; it was a public school library standard from what I've heard, alot of people have read it.

>and French Canadian fur traders in 4th grade.

That's pretty out of left field. What spurred the interest?

I noticed a trend of wanting to learn about other cultures (unless your French Canadian or Greek). Is that an actual trend in your life or just a coincidence with your childhood? Is your job/current education involved with learning other cultures?
