How do you deal with the intense shame that comes along with learning Japanese?

>> No.10571260

The text in that image is too dark on the right.

>> No.10571261

What shame?

>> No.10571270

Thanks, OP. I've been looking for this picture for years.

>> No.10571267

The only shame I feel is taijin kyofusho when I visit Nihon (Japan). I'm constantly worried I'll embarrass the Nihonjin (Japanese people) because I am a gaijin (foreigner) who can't speak very good Nihongo (Japanese language).

I'm just glad I have no friends. I imagine this being an awkward thing to explain.

"I'm learning a language!"
"Good for you, Anon! Which one?"
"Japanese."

No matter how you look at it, I'm definitely a weeaboo who wants to watch cartoons and play porn games.

No. Scientists have proven you can't become fluent in a new language after your teens.

I guess our cavemen ancestors didn't really need to learn new shit once they were grown up.

Things that sucked ass (feel free to add your own:)

• Reverse actualization (goes from perfect competence, sergeant, university graduate, air force pilot and EVA driver at like 13, to routinely fucking up and being saved by Shinji, to catatonic mind-raped vegetable who Shinji jerks off on)

It's harder to form neural pathways or whatever, but you can still learn new things.

I do recall something about not being able to learn new "instincts" though. Like you can only be conditioned to think a certain way unconsciously up to a certain age.

don't these retards realize ecchi is the pronunciation of H which is short for hentai

it isn't just similar sounding by coincidence. it literally derives from H which refers to the first letter in hentai

it just has an expanded meaning now thanks to epic meme usage so can be used in contexts that hentai as a noun wouldn't be
