i've been living in this weird country for 2 years and realized that these freaky japs can never learn proper english. i know ppl taking english lessons for ages (i mean it) and they can't even understand what you are talking to them.
wait! they can actually understand you only if you speak with "japanese english" accent. for instance, "My name is Adams" -> "Mayoo neimoo izoo adamoosoo" ('oo' is 'u' like in "blue";)

Ganbaree baka ni'njin :D

Hi USANUMBER1/Ye OLDePHART

Not trying to be arguementative or imply negative vibes etc .
Merely trying to understand .

What does :

"I have learned that Japs , Mexicans and cue balls have something in common......the harder you hit them the more "english" you get out of them."

actually mean ?

It's gibberish to me I'm afraid .

#7 It is pretty simple to understand really (if you live in the US). Mexicans and to a lesser degree Japanese in the workplace (especially construction sites) tend to act like they do not understand English when they are given directions on what work you want them to perform. If you take a 2x4 and go up against their head they all of a sudden speak very good English! Acting dumb is just an act to get out of having to do their work.
This is mostly just a workplace joke and seldom practiced .

I am sure you already know about putting "english" on a cue ball when playing pool or billiards.

It is just a play on words.

Thank you .

No , I haven't heard of any of that .

Not even the "English" cue ball term .


Weird place you live in (no disres) .
Almost a "let's beat a slave mentality"

I've wanted for 12 years or so to go visit a long term pal who lives in your country but have always had second thoughts .

Strange , strange people .

#9 Home finally and now and a little illumination of the term "English" as it pertains to billiards.

Traditionally, English refers to a side shot. That is, shooting to the left or right of center but in the center between the top and bottom of the ball. This adds a bit of spin to the cue ball as it travels towards the object ball. Then, once the cue ball strikes the object ball, the spin that you added to it will cause it to move off to the side instead of bouncing off in a straight line. This can be used to set up future shots and ensure proper placement of the cue ball after the shot.

Listen to your "inner voice" and do not travel to America , it is full of strange dangerous people. >:)

Why would any individual want to think their cuntry is full of "dangerous" people ?

Pathetic .

But I'm open to a chat later :-)))

Hilarious! I live in Japan -- that's pretty typical of local TV shows. Variety shows like this are on all the time. They get tiresome quickly but this clip was good.

I would ask, however that people please stop using "Jap" as an abbreviation for "Japanese." It's incredibly racist and no more acceptable than using the word n****r to describe African-Americans. If you MUST use an abbreviation because you too lazy to type 5 more letters (Jap+anese) then maybe you should invest in some typing classes or something.

I guarantee, sh*tty English skills or not, if you come to Japan and start referring to people here as "Japs" you will get told off or get your a$$ kicked by someone.

Amen #14, no one has respect. LOL look at #4's login name, it says it all. Racism is still alive big time...honestly though, I think the whole racial slur thing has gone too far....anything seems to be racist nowadays, and if it isn't, someone will find a way for it to be. And honestly trying to educate people on proper "abbreviations" on the internet is a lost cause, I'm sure you know that and good for you for at least putting it out there. :(|)

Sorry #14. Words aren't racist, people are. It's not the word that hurts but the intent behind it.
Just check George Carlin's rants about language. Well worth the time.

#17, that may be true... People are racist -- not words... But tell that to the guy who's kicking your a$$ and twisting your neck into a pretzel for calling him a racial slur... I guarantee that most Japanese people have never even heard of George Carlin... :(|) (I'm not trying to pick a fight with you -- I'm just sayin').

#15 I know. It's a lost cause but there are many people who just don't realize it. I've had friends refer to Pakistani people as "Pakis" not intentionally trying to be ignorant but they just didn't know any better. When someone (wasn't me) told them what they were doing was rude, they stopped.

I know I can't get through to someone who chooses to behave like an idiot -- I just hope I can give someone who doesn't know any better a heads-up... ;)

Ok I am getting tired of seeing so many comments from people ragging on Americans. Don't get me wrong there are a lot of stupid people here in the states, and yes we are the most hated country. But seriously, you don't have to go around saying that ALL Americans "yanks" are stupid, or anything else derogatory. In my opinion that's being racist, which doesn't make you any better than we are. So basically what I am trying to say is, Everyone know how much America is hated, so you really don't need to reiterate how much America is BAD every chance you get. Keep it to yourself. Like my mother always said "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all"

#15 Wait a minute,USAnumber1 is a racist nick? How in the world could THAT be considered racist? Nationalistic or patriotic maybe but the US is made up of people of most all races, not just one. Most people are not very proud of their country but Americans generally are. Some posters on this site seem to have no sense of humor yet have the tender sensabilities of a little girl and are offended by most anything....grow up and be a man.(or woman) :|

Speaking of Irish bars,did you hear about the three Irishmen who WALKED out of a bar? Well it COULD have happened. :D

#22, Did you notice, not one european complained about the good ole USA during WW2 No one whines about the USA when they need their ass bailed out of a jam, or their freedom is threatened.How many US soldiers gave their life so that others could have their freedom?! Yes we are a proud nation made up af every race color and creed, if you don't want to come to America,and you have that attitude, then by all means please stay home.
Furtermore, USAnumber1, I thought those jokes were funny as hell. They were funny I don't care who ya are!!!! :D

Non-Americans (like Europeans and such) use terms like "redneck" and "yank" in a derogatory manner all the time when referring to Americans and think nothing wrong of it.Isn't that kind of a double standard?
Hell you can call me anything but "late for dinner" and I could care less.
There is no sense in getting all pissy and whining :'( about some perceived insult to someone else; if they have a problem with something then let THEM make the complaint.

Snotr has to change alot of stuff around here if it wants to compete with the much bigger companies, im going to give some tips to whoever might read this because you seem to ignore peoples single pleas, hopefully if i make a block of text u might actually make sense of these ideas and put them into action - making Snotr an even better place than it alreay is/was.

First things first, you need to sort out this inflow of videos, i understand you are currently having upload problems, if you are understaffed i wuld be happy to help out with the site, try help you sort out these problems and get a steady flow of hilarious/intresting/spectacular videos.

Secondly, You need to format this whole format of posting, it might be more exiting if we were able to change the colour of our text , the boldness? etc.. you have to think for yourself..( maybe having a choice of box colours for each of our boxes? :) )

Thirdly, You NEED a forum, whats a website withhout banter?critisizm?general conversation? it doesnt take a second to nock up a fairly decent forum which im sure anyone would be happy to help with. Also it would help you to develop new ideas.

forthly, You need more moderaters to ban the trolls and maintain the site.

fithly,remove that 'video cloud' bullshit, for anyone that hasnt clicked it DONT, its a stupid idea.

sixthly, Perhaps a search bar to search for videos, and a nicer layout of the overall page.

seventhly, you need to make it more obvious, and easier to upload your own videos, so the moderaters can review, and put them on the site if they are worthy.

on another note to the above- you could even have a reward system for those who post more videos, perhaps ranks? or titles? something to show who are dedicated users of this fantastic site.


Finally..... Im not trying to slate the site, but it could do so much better, i introduce all my friends to this site and they under-estimate how fantastic it really is... I just think you need to tidy up, afterall, out with the old and in with the new, liven up this site.. make it more well known and really be proud for what it is.

P.S. on a side note, sorry for posting this here, but there are no forums, i think what i said is valid and i hope you dont shunt it.

#24, obviously you're trying to get your kicks out of riling me. Sorry to disappoint you -- takes a lot more than using a racist term on purpose and insulting Japanese people to get my goat.

#33 Here you are back again after promising to never return to snotr because you get so infuriated with other peoples views on things that you can't keep your thoughts straight.Has some counseling helped or are you just Irish whiskey emboldened at the moment? You need to grow a set and stop acting like a little girl.
By the way,the rest of the world doesn't hate the US,just certain little envious groups that have a false sense of superiority or moral high ground.
