I saw this reply in my emails, and my email didn’t seem to get that the “congrats” wasn’t a good thing

[Gmail?] Celebrating failures, together.

I think Leebo became lifetime a few days before the Christmas promo…

Or maybe I’m just imagining things.

Oshin · January 13, 2019, 12:06pm

No, I saw that too. You’re not just imagining things.

Leebo · January 13, 2019, 12:22pm

I guess if people are asking, yeah, it was gifted to me.

gojarappe · January 13, 2019, 12:42pm

I don’t think we meant you. At least, I didn’t.

Leebo · January 13, 2019, 12:43pm

Oh, the other Leebo then?

jprspereira · January 13, 2019, 12:45pm

There’s obv two of you to be here at all times and answer Japanese related questions.

gojarappe · January 13, 2019, 12:45pm

Nevermind that, I’m an idiot who keeps skimming.

Leebo · January 13, 2019, 12:46pm

Oh… well, if you know anyone else who reset to make a point, then maybe they meant them.

Outlook actually

Iyaonas · January 13, 2019, 2:14pm

Just used ignore on the 方 radical because I put way instead of direction and decided that I don’t care
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Iyaonas · January 13, 2019, 2:14pm

also the fact that the back slash doesn’t show up is triggering me super hard

Joshikii · January 13, 2019, 2:15pm

¯\(ツ)/¯ use two

Iyaonas · January 13, 2019, 2:16pm

Now it disappeared completely ><

EDIT: JK, just went on different lines

seanblue · January 13, 2019, 2:26pm

Use a third so it’s not italics.

Iyaonas · January 13, 2019, 2:53pm

You are a genius.

Aletag · January 13, 2019, 3:25pm

Wanikani is my excuse for not keeping up with grammar…

Joshikii · January 13, 2019, 4:19pm

Ditto, I tend to avoid vocab lessons on WK too >.>

At this point, we basically use it as a verb so your name could get mentioned in reference to other people.
