HARHARHARHAR Ananth. I studied Japanese for 3 years in college and now I live here. I should be better but oh well. I understand a lot more than I can coherently speak.
Translation: Hi everyone, it's Krampus. I'd like to do a short self introduction in Japanese. Please be kind. First, my name is Krampus. I am 23. My job is the ALT English teacher at Toyo High School. As for hobbies, I especially love music. As expected, my favorite kind of music is metal, yeah? After that...drinks I like are Asahi, Kirin, Sapporo, Yebisu...they're all okay. I don't really like shochu (shitty rice wine), but I think nihonshu (sake) and umeshu (plum wine) are pretty delicious. I don't have time so I'm going to finish. Thank you very much. "Shitsureiitashimasu" literally means "sorry for being rude" but it's how Japanese people end a phone call.
Ananth, that is the most peaceful cursing I have ever heard. And I totally dig the idea of a voice chat, we could always do Skype conference calls!
VVVVV you sound like a normal dude who is slightly cocky. Great job!
