Hate is like barbed wire            (These are “deep” words)
MILDLY INTERESTING:
It is usually very difficult for Japanese people to say they don’t like something, let alone to say they really dislike it, or to say they hate it. Offending someone else is a serious matter. In a crowded country where everyone looks after everyone, you don’t want to make an enemy of everyone. Makes sense doesn’t it? So… Japanese people sit on those emotions. They cover them up. They brood over them. They get rid of them on Facebook! They don’t deal with them.
But there are some seriously frustrated Japanese people. Some people in history have flipped their lid. Yes, every so often one reads in the newspaper that it was all too much for someone. The answer: don’t let it become a festering sore – go and seek help. There are good people out there who know about these emotions and who can help.

 

This is a summary of two pages:
The dislikeable logic of carrots
No, you’re not ‘kirai‘ – you’re ‘kirei‘!
(well… your mother thinks so… )
No, you’re cute!
Definitely very cute!
Very cute – don’t be sad!
You’re not ‘kirai’!
You’re pretty!
You’re ‘kirei’!
We lo~ve birds!

Phew, that was close!
Don’t wanna make that mistake too often…

Ssssh! Quiet! It was a genuine mistake!
