Prose or Poetry?

There's a very recent translation by Stavros as well which from the excerpts I've seen seems to preserve the poetic stanza meter of the Moriguchi/Jenkins translation but with a slightly more literary bent. Maybe after the single lifetime it takes to learn modern Japanese I'll start on learning classical to be able to appreciate the original text.

Well seems like a dictionary definition would be a good start [1]. The first definition there is pretty spot-on

>Possessing physical features, behaviors, personality traits or other properties that are mainly attributed to infants and small or cuddly animals; e.g. fair, dainty, round, and soft physical features, disproportionately large eyes and head, playfulness, fragility, helplessness, curiosity or shyness, innocence, affectionate behavior.
The only circular definition might be "cuddly", but the specific qualities listed should help disambiguate.

Although perhaps more interesting is that the meaning of "cute" has diverged from its original:
>Shortened from acute, originally “keenly perceptive or discerning, shrewd” (1731). Meaning transferred to “pretty, fetching” by US students (slang) c.1834. Meaning drifted further to describe the pleasing attraction to features usually possessed by the young.


[1] https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cute#English

To my non-native brain, I understood cute as something attractive and/or beautiful but doesn't evoke any sexual desire. I would call a pretty butterfly cute or a nice, colorful wallpaper pattern cute but reading the dictionary definition posted above I see that's incorrect. Interesting.

There are multiple definitions to cute. You might be referring to the usage as
>Generally, attractive or pleasing, especially in a youthful, dainty, quaint or fun-spirited way.
Although to me calling a butterfly "cute" seems a bit weird unless it's one of those cartoonish butterflies. Ditto for calling a colorful wallpaper "cute," since I normally only attribute cuteness to things that are nominally "alive" or intended to portray life (so a stuffed animal or figurine would count as well).

Then again maybe the term has diverged even further since I do recall some kids using "cute" in the sense you described, even though I feel the term "pretty" would fit better.

Your post is pretty cute, anon.

Man, fuck the haters. Just like what you like.
Though I like to see what other people think, just to be more self-aware.

Fuck me.

I would pick flight. It's convenient and I think it would be quite fun. Not just flying itself but flying of your own power would give you a kind of control, view and perspective that any other flight would be hard to provide.

Conjure coffee anywhere anytime. LOL.

You mean having a boner all the time?

I don't know man, seems pretty annoying.

"Datte hontou wa crazy"?

I always use my laptop in bed (don't have space for a proper table/chair, and using it in bed is more comfortable anyhow) but I do it by propping a pillow against the side of the bed and the wall to support my back, so I'm still upright. The thing to be most careful of is to avoid blocking the fan vents, since I nearly had a laptop die from that once.

>>35772
>using it in bed is more comfortable
Not if you're writing something or need access to physical books. What kind of hole are you living in where you don't have room for a desk?

I do occasionally, always get out of bed and sit at a desktop when RSI inevitably becomes noticeable.

Oh, Kay On.

>Penpukin Pi

Ehhh. What an odd way to spell it. The Japanese are weird.

Remember that ハ is “ha”, so パ would be “pa”.

"Oh pie" baking competition?

Cold treats!

Ice cream curls or rolls are fine too.

I need to vicariously live through the person eating this.

So this one is going to turn into an anime after Nijigasaki?
There was some news of a recruiting some time ago, now that you mention it.

I can't say I'm loving this. The characters seem very generic.

LoveLive + Macross = Macross Delta

Official name's Love Live Superstars.

I work 8 to 5 as an IT admin / web developer in the medical technology sector. The company has grown in the last years, but is still under 100 employees. Most of the time I spend with building web interfaces and managing databases, besides occasional technical support for my colleagues.

I quit my higher paying web job impulsively. Couldn’t sand the idiot CEO I had to deal with. Now Living with my parents again and working at a liquor store. I’ve noticed I feel about 100% better coming home from a job where I am on my feet doing physical tasks than coming home from a job at an office sitting all day. But I do really miss the money and my apartment (though my cat likes my parents house much more). I think I may need to pursue higher paying physical labor.

>building web interfaces
Do you do design work for it, or are you given a plan and you just have to implement it?

>>33193
Or get a similar web job with a better company.
