I guess, but that would be the transliteration of the Japanese onomatopoeia as “pin pon” afaik doesn’t really mean much in English. I thought with “ping pong,” we at least associate with the sound.

3·23 小时前Those look like Japanese packagings, do you have to play them in Japanese or did they provide Chinese language back then?

4·23 小时前I genuinely thought they reformulated the Spam recipe.
You guys have a different dialect for every block in your city though.
In Japanese, it’s ピンポンダッシュ which is a transliteration of “ping pong dash.”

8·2 天前The thumbnail reminds me of Patapon.
TIL the term save-scumming. I didn’t know my habit had a name.
I love you for formatting your post so nicely.
Sorry, I only tried the two mentioned here but I am an idiot; Futo does have Japanese! Unfortunately it fits not have Canadian English so I’m keeping Gboard for now.
I was wrong, Futo did have Japanese! ありがとうございます!
Ooh!! The set up was all wonky and it was going to a different keyboard’s settings.
Sadly, it now is apparent to me that it doesn’t have Canadian English. I just can’t win lol
I think it’s always been pretty bad, tbh, but it seems to have gotten especially bad in the past year or two. It’s always screwing up “if” and “of”. You’d think it would know which would make sense contextually.
I want to replace it, but I can’t find any decent keyboards that types Japanese.
I was so happy to try two keyboards I’ve never heard of, but sadly they don’t have Japanese…

1·4 天前Yeah Kirby games are kinda bland already. Having to travel so far in between action might make it worse for me.


Is this a popular slop style where you live? I see the stupid ghibli filter all the time here.
I got this from a community centre for some camping event my kids definitely won’t be attending.
