Heso! Natto is fermented soy beans, correct? It's been referenced in both FMA and One Piece... Yeah, definitely going to avoid that one, considering it was used as an insult in One Piece (in episode 130, which I have seen far too many times...) and it came out of Pinako's hair in FMA (XD the Bonus Comics at the end of each volume are the best).
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Hi! Naturally, just because you can gamble, drink, get cigerettes, etc doesn't really mean its a good idea to try. At least that was my attitude when I turned 21. That aside, have you picked a college yet?

Yeah, nato (or is it natto?) is fermentated soybeans. They're kinda slimey and, in my opinion, taste like rotten beans (makes sense since that's basically what they are).

Whoo. Next year, I'll be in college (preferably somewhere close to home) and I'll be 17. :D
It always gets people when I tell them I'm a 16-year-old high school senior. They're all like, "Did you skip a grade?!" Ah well. At least my birthday's coming up. I sort of like being a 16-year-old senior though. It's pretty funny since that's the average age of a sophomore or something.

It was lonely... you promised you'd write to me, but you never did... the months passed by, and I still thought of you every day, but you never called. I never got any letters from you.

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*

For the record, no, I didn't. And if I ever get asked that question again, I'm not answering.

Konbanwa. My Japanese teacher mentioned natto several times during my three years of taking her class. She suggested that we shouldn't try it. XD

Heso! I'm the same way, Mandi... no one asks if I skipped a grade, though; they just ask what the heck I'm doing in the grade. I just turned sixteen yesterday and I'm a Junior...

And I believe it was spelled natto in One Piece, but that was a fansub so I guess we can't be sure. K-F seems to know what they're doing, though...

Oi. Been an interesting week. My computer is slowly dieing. My schedule for work is off and I haven't been able to get a hold of the main manager. Our first competition for band is Saturday. My friends keep annoying me because I prefer to call the calzones I bring to lunch "Pizza Pockets" because that's what was on the recipe. Bacon is rebelling again, and I'm not talking about the Virginian farmer. I have a sunburn from marching band.
That last one was just random.

Anyway, I'm going to have to type from my laptop, which is also pretty cruddy, because this $200 dollar computer was really worth about what I was supposed to pay for it. Unfortunately the rebates didn't come back so we really paid around $600.

Natto is how it's spelled as far as I had seen. Just the concept seems digusting, fermented beans... So there are some people who like that stuff?

How are all of these spam bots getting in? They're not even very good ones. '_-

Hi! Sigh... How many times do I have to explain this? I can't do anything to keep spam bots from making accounts no matter how obvious they are. However, I can prevent those accounts from being used unless I activate them. So basically the spam bots can make all the accounts they want (which is what you see in the new member list) but they can't actually use those accounts to post anything.

Hi.

I think sims wondered how some were given authorization to post.

He is stating the truth. First thing this morning, there were two ‘poll’ threads by new members I had to delete. They were gibberish. Not even adverting anything or actual words. It looked like that computer langauge you get when your printer has a fit.

I didn't mention it because I just thought a spam bot had been realistic enought to get authorised.

Hi! Could have been. Some of them have very believable profiles.
