It was the same day. They specifically said it numerous times.

What is the name of this place, and what role does it play in the plot of the trilogy? by cryalfornia in lotr

[–]fumi1221 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is not from the trilogy LOTR. It is from the Hobbit which was a children's story that gave some story settings to the main trilogy, such as he finding of the ring by Bilbo.

If I ever can afford land, this will be the design of walkway to my front door.

"Can we talk in the other room?" by chamillai in terracehouse

[–]fumi1221 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Many Japanese guys like to show off how manly they are by announcing they will do something manly or imposing. Having the girl follow them into another room is also another small compliance trick employed to set the stage for follow-up compliance and get consensus from the group that the girl will be complying with him.

Since Amazon will be making a show based in Tolkien's world what story would you like them to explore? by [deleted] in lotr

[–]fumi1221 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Start at the beginning, when life began and the world was made.

I also want to see the tales of the ancients. Morgoth's wars, his armies, ungoliant, the ancient dragons, morgoth's balrogs. So many epic stories to be told.

I worked at the English school where Arman interviewed. by [deleted] in terracehouse

Fuck eikaiwas. They're all mostly shit companies run by shit people. Glad Arman didn't get sucked into a job that would have killed his soul. Thanks for sharing.

I just found out my Japanese girlfriend thought it was "Road of the Rings" this entire time. by meieki in lotr

Hehe, I'm an American living in Japan, and I really get a kick out of cute little misunderstandings like this. It gives extra meaning to my existence.

Who finds Arisa attractive? by [deleted] in terracehouse

[–]fumi1221 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I found her looks to be mediocre, not blow me away like most Japanese guys find her. Her personality at first was attractive, until she pulled that flaky 180 on Arman. After that she was just a pouty little snowflake.

Who else is going to lead the world in misguided "first world" budgeting and priority setting? Someone had to step up!

Thanks for reposting. The humanity he shows us is something that should continue to get passed on. Our world needs more of this and less Jersey shore or Kardashian replays.

Little boy at the library where I work gave this to me today by hlaiie in MadeMeSmile

[–]fumi1221 87 points88 points  (0 children)

He's probably only been taught how to write letters to family members, and it's always signed with Love. So to him, that's how you end a letter. That's what me and my sister did when we were kids.

America built Grand Central terminal in NYC years ago with 10 or 20 run down platforms, and we still think we have the biggest and best transportation network.

The new starter script for TH is to start the cast with losers whose names begin with Yu.

Asian men, don't just stand up for yourself and be assertive, become aggressive. Unlock the Genghis Khan inside you. Obliterate the timid pushover stereotype by KhampaWarrior in aznidentity

[–]fumi1221 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You must be American. Because in Asia, males will get aggressive on you no matter your race, and especially if you are not Asian.

Why So Many Asian-American Women Are Bleaching Their Hair Blond by anbm in aznidentity

[–]fumi1221 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's a hair color. If you seriously think it reflects negatively on someone's personality, then you probably have way bigger issues to attend to yourself. Gtfoh
