its kind of sad though that i want to be japanese so much. One of friends says i need to be more american and gets annoyed because thats all i talk about.:mtongue:

I don't wish I was Japanese (though I wouldn't mind...), and I certainly don't act Japanese. I just enjoyed the music, culture, art and history of Japan.

Though if people want to act Japanese then I don't see any problem with someone acting out a fantasy.

Yeah, I thought so. I think it's associated with Japanese more because they seem to use it more often in pictures and so on, but it didn't originate from Japan so I don't see why people are 'Wapanese' for using it.

Oh well xD

wapaneese like wigger is a made up/racist word and moronic there maybe some people who over do it but to call them such a vulgar word shows how hateful/uneducated person you are.

Coming from someone using "Otaku" in their username, which also carries a negative connotation.

"Wapanese" is a rather unnecessary term. That aside, the people who fall under said...hmm...stereotype (I suppose) annoy the Hell out of me. Personally, I'm a fan of the culture and the language and I have been for years, but even I get a little weirded out/amused by American girls running around with cat ears and a tail mewing all over everyone. The only ones that really piss me off are the ones who know literally nothing about the language but profess fluency.

same here, but some people are just like that.

Wapanese - is it wrong?
 
c'yeah in most cases. people need to learn how to be happy with themselves, with their race.

if not, they get laughed at. like this lady xD

It looks like she's baking bread in those legwarmers :D

I don't think we should rule out lethal injection, or at least sterilization for this one...
