You know, things like this are why I love
metaquotes. Yes, the joke may not be funny for everyone, the photoshopping's not really good, and it's certainly sort of disrespectful, but it's not worth the drama. And the comments building up on each other are just beautiful. Both on the original community and on
metaquotes.
... why yes, I do have a crooked sense of humour. We all know that.
Which probably means that I'll go straightways to hell.
As long as Viggo Mortensen is still the devil, I can deal with that.
In other news, MAY THIS MONTH NEVER REACH ITS END.
Why?
Because our Kendô dôjô is hosting the German Team Championships this year. On April 30th.
Due to "internal stresses" the dôjô itself will not send a team into the competition. But of course, someone has to fight for Cologne.
Which means, the students.
Which means, among others, me.
And our sensei explicitly said, me. He named all of those who have to fight. Which is neither a surprise nor an honour because the field is limited; we are but four women in armour, so all of us have to go.
That would be all fine and well except for the part where I have the reflexes of a telephone booth and the battle skills of a frying pan. Quod erat demonstrandum in practice today.
Combined with the overwhelming honour of having been chosen for the makeshift team - well. Me not happy.
Oh well. They'll beat us up, that's all. It'll probably be fast; that mercy at least.
</ over-dramatize) Today, I saw a Kanji poster saying 円満, 平和, 英知, 泰然 (harmony, peace, knowledge, serenity). Ah, if only they had left out harmony and taken 力 instead. 力 is power, strength and the Force. I would practically have gotten complete Jedi Code then. <i>That poster I'd have bought.
Now I have to make it myself.
