"I totally don't remember comin' back to the classroom to do somethin'"
(That's bad)
"In fact, I can't even remember what I came back to do."

Like to convince me.

Y'know, I generally don't bother with commenting on my VC, but this one is bizarrely relevant. And Okinawan, apparently. ("Shiisa (VC) yaibing!"

>>202603
Wow, I didn't get that at all:

O1: Gotta be sure an' remember t' go back t' the classroom t' do somethin'.

OFX: Can't let 'em make fun of me.

O2: Only, I can't remember what I'm s'posed t' go back t' do.

(Remember, in Osaka-ben, the "-nen" verb ending isn't necessarily negative, but more like an emphasizer. Otherwise "Chau nen" would mean "You're not wrong.")

>>202626
Yes, but since both oboeten-nen and omoidasen-nen had an extra n before then nen part (I still can't type in kana right now) I figured they were both meant to be negative. Since we both (presumably correctly) interpreted the second half as "Can't remember" I assumed the first verb in the same format would also be negative.

I'm not sure why the first part would be "I have to" anything. There's no conditional, or -nakya or anything like that, so I figured it was just a statement of fact. Also, the modottekita is already past tense instead of -te form so I figured it was describing something that had already occured.

I was a little stumped on the baka ni shita part, because I would have ordinarily not expected to see a past tense verb in that context. I again figured the past tense was an admission of having already done something dumb (and it being bad), rather than "if I do something dumb it's bad."

Looks like we got the second half mostly the same though.

Hmm...could be. However, coupled with her "Baka ni shita akan," I interpolated that she was insisting to herself that she do something right so people wouldn't make fun of her.

That's a good point. Perhaps more like, "I made sure t' remember t' come back t' the classroom t' do somethin'."

Understandable. I simply went with the implication of the "akan" that she was trying to prevent something from happening.

>>202647
Looking at it again 24 hours later, I can see where you're coming from, and although I think it's worded in a strange way to be saying that, your interpretation does seem more likely.

Osaka's hidden side, part whatever:
"But your a teacher... (you can't figure out the answer?)"
"F-fuggedaboudit!"

"Thinkin' about hemorrhoids..."

>>202593

"Shita-kara nozokanai-you onegaishimasu"

Tomo: "As if you're making plans with your boyfriend!"
Osaka: "'course I am!"
Tomo: "What!?"
Osaka: "Just kiddin'"

>>202980
If Osaka ever got a boyfriend, I bet he would be cool as beans.

>>202992

I bet he would have a mohawk. And a million piercings. And he'd never say a word. Osaka would act as if he were completely normal, and nobody would ever get up the nerve to make a comment.

>>202992
I bet he'd be just an ordinary fella

>>203011
I forgot, was that scene before or after she got boned in the butt?

Osaka's the only anime character who actually would like to be a dakimakura.

>>203031

>dakimakura

AKA a body pillow for you non-weeaboo.

>>202992

exactly as cool as beans. taste kinda meh and make you fart, but be a dietary staple for large swaths of the world.

interpret the metaphor as you will.

ITT: Bean knowledge.

>>203087

This ain't bean knowledge: It's knowledge of beans!

>>203092
That ain't knowledge of beans: that's the grains of truth!

I bet when she stretched in that top panel she made a squishy sound.

This is now an Osaka shoop thread.

And why was I not informed about the sage checkbox?

They also look like they were rolling around on the cafeteria floor at my old high school.

>>203107
Why's that? Is it because she is not very flexible?

What's with the pink nipples?

>>203647

I'm gunna say because she's light-skinned?

>>203647

>>203647

The Japanese like pink nipples. They even sell "nipple bleaching" cream so ladies can make their nipples a lighter color.

>>203654
They also bleaching soap.
Ridiculous.

>>203655

I accidentally the whole thing.

Yo: This is Jeralumin.
[Yes, it's spelled differently from "Duralumin.]

O: Y' got the wrong person...

Yu: Right, this is the transfer student I meant: Miss Ayumu Kasuga.

Class: An...Osakan?

2
O1: I'm Ayumu Kasuga.

O2: It's a pleasure to—

Yu: No, no, no!

3
Yu1: You needn't take such care in using human speech!

Yu2: You can just say, "Couldja gimme yer smoked cheese?"

O: Huh? But I don't really care about sm—

Yu: Go on!

O: ...C-couldja gimme yer smoked cheese?

Class: Whoa...

>>203786

Is this one of those Japanese cultural things, or was the original authour just ca-ca-coo-coo?

>>203787
It's a Churuya reference. No, that doesn't make it funny.

>>203794
It does a little bit.

>>203782

What exactly is that thing, who came up with it, and why?

>>203860
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_the_Sun
An artistic monument/landmark in Osaka, built for the Expo '70 World's Fair there.

>>203861
The monument has appeared on several stamps (see pic), and has even had a song written about it (by Osaka-based group Shonen Knife).

>>203862
http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/12/25/graphic-books-best-seller-list-20/

Osaka: "I'm a Sexy Santa!"
Chiyo: "I don't there are many people who still know what that is."

1.
Osaka: "Chiyo-chan, Merry Christmas!"
2.
Chiyo: "Are you Santa for today Miss Osaka?"
Osaka: "Nuh-uh, I'm a Sexy Santa."
3.
Chiyo: "Why did you get quiet all of the sudden?"
4.
Osaka: "I just remembered something I've gotta do! Wait right there Chiyo-chan!"
Chiyo: "She forgot the presents... still as forgetful as ever..."

"Tooth"?

>>203870
Apparently, this was the catch phrase of Toshiaki Kasuga, half of the comedy duo "Audrey", who won Second Place in a consolation match at the 2008 M-1 Grand Prix comedians' contest. Kasuga became Man of the Hour overnight, and his "Tooth" line became the top buzzword among high school girls for the first half of 2009. One girl in Osaka says it's so user-friendly, she uses the word as a greeting, a question response, and more. Another in Kanagawa says some of her friends have come up with the variant "Arigatooth." (Toothanks, maybe?)

So, yeah.

So, would you add her to your party?

To my kinky, raunchy, orgy party? Sure.
To my party to overthrow the overlord of Urakapisai? Maybe...

>>204218

You're looking a little erotic there, Ayumu-chan.

>>204254
Sexy Osaka is sexy.

>>204140
Does this say anything interesting? I'm intrigued by Japanese baseball, but I don't really know anything about it.

>>204265
It's just your typical new year's greeting:
"Happy new year! Please be kind to me again this year"
And then Ochaka says "Victory!"

This one didn't really come as a surprise.

>>204218
Absolutely. I can always use another healer, and they don't need a high initiative anyway.

>>208687
Remember when camel-toe was against the rules? I do he said as he drifted off into remembrance, followed by dream, followed by the endless cosmos.

>>208691

Apparently it's still against the rules. That post seems to have vanished, despite the rules stating clearly that swimsuits and underwear are okay.

>>208692
Based on being tasteful, I guess. I'm sad I missed it, but it's not like it was the hottest pic of Osaka.

>>203646 gets to stay even though it shows a bit of nipple.

LAME.

>>208692
Huh, I thought it was alright.

Reposted in nws /azu/

sigh...
Some people, am I right?...

>>208691, >>208692, >>208693, >>208699, >>208700, >>208702

These are the exchanges that can make a moderator's life difficult. :-) I didn't think the deleted image was that terrible, either, certainly compared to some others, but apparently the mention/presence of camel toe set off a flag somewhere. Just what is the "community standard", then, in case I ever have to apply it?

>>208703
I believe the best rule is just to use your best judgement.

>>208702
Personally, I find this kind of stuff more inappropriate.

>>208702
I still saved it. I was merely making derisive commentary concerning its posting on this board. Also:

>No image macros or motivational posters allowed unless they're related to Azumanga or Yotsuba.

WHY CAN'T PEOPLE FOLLOW REGULATION

>>208715

>>WHY CAN'T PEOPLE FOLLOW REGULATION

Because the moderation/enforcement is inconsistent, and does not match the rules.

For example, 208687 was deleted even though the rules clearly state that underwear is OK.

Meanwhile, images like 208702, 208712, 208695, 208670 are still out on the front page despite being against the rules (photographs/image macros not on topic). 203449 is likewise against the rules (violence).

/r/ alteration of the rules to match the moderation, or alternately: adjustment of moderation to match the rules!

>>208716
I like the lax rules. It isn't a matter of picking and choosing from what I see, just like what others have said; taste and better judgment.
Think about it: do you really want another /shimauu/ board?

>>208718

I have no idea what the shimauu board is, nor am I complaining about the rules here. I think the rules are just fine.

But, it's a little weird when the moderation is inconsistently applied and doesn't match the rules.

I'm all in favor of keeping things in good taste, but please explain why a pic of Osaka's underwear was deleted (despite being specifically OKed by the rules) while things like 208670 was not? The taste standard doesn't exactly hold in that case.

Anyway, enough of this rules BS. POAST MOAR OSAKA.

Well-deserved repost.

>>208716, >>208719
As mentioned a couple of times in this thread, the camel toe (i.e., visible contours of the genitalia/mons venus) apparently crossed the line for someone. Yeah, consistent application of the rules would be good, but I suspect someone's going to complain about exceptions being made, unwitting or not, regardless.

I can go and delete all the posts listed in >>208716. But wouldn't some people on here complain that was overreacting/excessive enforcement of the rules in comparison to other recent examples?

>>208722
Looking at the pic again, I don't even see a crease for the "toe". Maybe the part between her ass and hoochy-chooch was revealing, but you have to enlarge the image to see it.
It seemed to me it was just sexually provocative.

>>208722

Are you saying that the post was deleted because someone complained to the mods about it? If so, that explains everything and this whole "discussion" is somewhat moot.

>>208718

I like lax rules. I don't like arbitrary rules. I especially don't want this to turn into shimauu. Ugh.

I posted the Osaka picture, and, like >>208723, I don't see any camel toe. Differing definitions, I guess?

Ultimately, though, I do believe the mods here are doing a great job, and I apologize for any trouble caused by that picture... but at least it got the Osaka thread rolling again.

>>208716
I try to delete the unrelated image macros where possible, but I also have to be fairly motivated to do it, because unless there's a better way I don't know of, it can take like 10 minutes to delete a single image.

>>208725
....What's wrong with /shimauu/?

It's a backup board and the place where YiF goes on, right?

>>208738
Yeah, I'm confused too. Someone care to explain? Maybe in the past, moderation might have been strict? I wouldn't know. We post a lot of risqué stuff in the discussion threads just for ourselves and we've never been told it wasn't okay.

Also, contributions.

>>208738
>>208738

>What's wrong with /shimauu/? It's a backup board and the place where YiF goes on, right?

You just answered your own question.

>>208746
Excellent. Yet another satisfied customer.

>>208746
Now I'm even more confused. :/ I'm serious, I can't... see the connection at all. "I like lax moderation, we don't want another board filled with roleplayers after all!" ...what?

>>208748

I can't speak for >>208718, but I at >>208746 was only being a jerk. I've got nothing against shimauu, really.

I figured.
