Someone should tell MSNBC that "Unch" means shit in Japanese.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

"unchanged" should be depicted in a different way. Perhaps.

1. I think shit fits

:hurts:

we are stomping them

[kansasblue]

2. ah unch....

[kansasblue]

3. unchanged happens

[phrenzy]

4. I believe that's "UN-CHI"..

And that's Diarrhea - "Unko" is plain old shit.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

6. true, but w/out Kanji, it sure looks like it.

but, hey, shit happens, hey?

GO DEMOCRATS!

[phrenzy]

8. Actually I was incorrect...

Unchi is correct for "shit" - Unko is like a kids word for shit (like 'poopie')

Geri is diarrhea...

12. According to my electronic dictionary (Sharp PW A8400),

"unchi" is also child-speak for SHIT, as is "unko". A neutral term would be "DAIBEN" (LARGE "convenience"?) as opposed to "SHOBEN" (SMALL "convenience"?), meaning PISS.

Oh shit!! come and see what I just did all over my keyboard!

13. What's Japanese for "spit on keyboard"? nt

:shrug:

[pnorman]

14. "Tsuba" (or "tsubaki") means spit

There are other homonyms for "tsuba" (but different kanji). I'm tied down right now. Later, I'll try to get the best choice of words for "all over the ...".

5. Learn something new every day. I will have to be careful about

my out to lunch notes at work, my boss is Japanese.

7. What else comes out of Tweety's mouth?

9. Republican-wa unch desu, ne?

So much for my Japanese.

10. hai.

11. That's news to me, but I could always be wrong.

Do you mean "UNKO"? A commonly used term FOR SHIT is KUSO (k'so), but it isn't such a no-no word as it is here. I've heard the phrase "Eh kuso!" ("Oh shit!") spoken on Japanese TV, and without any accompanying titters.
