It is safer to write a disaster poem about a financial crisis. I cannot do a McGonagall and write about an actual disaster where the lost of life and property is more apparent.
Ironic really. I think the 2008 financial crisis did more damage to life and property than the Tohoku disaster and the Indian Ocean disaster.
I do hope that you enjoyed the poems I have sent you though. That said, do you have any plans for the Writing Section?
well I certainly do enjoy so many stuff you've been churning out, including that one =)
nothing much. I've been writing out a Touhou fanfiction though, it wasn't that well-received after all. I think, it was so badly received because it has a really weird storytelling means that was much different than the usual things they've read.

I can send the link if you want.
Go ahead. I have nothing to do at this site until the contest is over. It is very strange. At the first the reception towards the competition seemed warm. After one or two weeks, only 4 or 5 entries were posted.

well yeah, people probably are busy procrastinating. I think, yeah, there will be outburst of entries near the deadline.

I hope so. I am now thinking if I should post something new at the Writing Section. I can do a few translations especially that song you've kept bumping in the Incoherent Babbling section, I can continue the Boring Boy or make my own addition to the "How to Be a Better Writer".

Civ 5 is much easier than Civ 4, less tedious as well. But this means that I would wean off it sooner or later. Do you still have that video you kept bumping in Incoherent Babbling?

you mean this?
that aside, I most likely will be off for family vacation starting tomorrow evening until this 2nd of new years. I need to take some rest off the internet, I've recently been really stressed out for many things that would probably be too much to be put into words lol.
in the meantime, I'd probably spend it by playing games and such, I haven't been doing that thing very much and I felt like I'm letting my youth float away just like that.

That is a shame. I may work on translating that. I am not exactly proficient in Chinese, the northern accents are completely alien to me and there are some strange expressions that I don't use. However, there is nothing a search engine can't solve it seems. I might post a translation of this in Incoherent Babbling and risk a few 'downvotes'. It belongs there really.

good luck on it.
also, currently downloading Civ 5 now. if I could stay at my place with my family visiting, I'll spend the holiday refreshing my mind and playing lots of games =D
Civ 5 is extremely laggy. Civ 4 is more challenging. Perhaps we can share pointers once we got that game downloaded. The Writer's Lounge appears to be frequented by me and you. With you not around, I expect this place to be rather quiet.

I am done with the translation!

The Two Ladies and the Lone Gentleman
(As) the bright moon emerges
(There were) two ladies and one gentleman.
The two of you married me
(and the) three of us ended up sharing one bed.
(0.11-0.20)
(As) the bright moon emerges
The three of us were sleeping on one bed.
With two ladies sandwiching you
(we are) afraid you might be sent to Hades.
You two listen to me
I am not afraid of having an audience with Hades
Don't resent me for being physically small.
(I may be small) but I am rather sturdy.
This man ought not to be so unruly
I (the lady) am not afraid of your sturdy constitution
This day you tease me (the fat lady)
(The next day) you will be bleeding resin.
Listen to me, fat lady
Dealing with fat ladies is my specialty
If you are sceptical, why not do me today
I will send rolling down your bed.
Don't resent me for being fat
I fool around a lot though I am fat
Hugging you, big brother, as I sleep tonight
Is as easy as chewing gum
That fat lady is so fat
(That) her bum is like one big vat
Her waist is so big you can't wrap your arms around
When she walks, she wobbles.
This man is no specialist
He can't tell what's good or not
If he flatters me, the fat lady
I will guarantee him sweet dreams every night
Don't fight battles with a gun
Don't fight tigers with an old rod
If I want to keep myself in good shape
I'd better not flatter that fat lady should I marry her
You are talking dirty
You can't fight tigers with no rod
Flatter me, the fat lady
And I will carry your gun for you at the battlefield
That lady is very scrawny
She weigh 38 kilograms
Her face has little to no meat
I don't know what to do with you should you marry me
This gentleman looks handsome
I can only gawp at him as I look at him
He is only four foot two though
Quite alike a cabbage
This lady is scrawny
She is only skin and bones
Should she marry me
Every night would be a dreadful night (for her)
This gentleman has no taste
He goes around speaking nonsense
Though I am thin and scrawny
Scrawny women do have tricks up their sleeves
This gentleman is rather thick
Fooling around at such a young age
Today he teases me, the young woman
Later I will do him till his legs face skywards
Young lady, you are the one being thick
Fooling around is very easy
I am not afraid of (doing) two ladies
Why don't the both of you come up and try me
The buck-tooth big mouth ought not to be so brazen
How dare you show off here
(Should we) the fat one and the scrawny one do you together
we will leave you standing on your head
Two ladies, one fat and one thin
Knows how to dance and with rhythm as well
Both of them look good
I will take them out to eat tonight
You don't look tall
You act wild and can move your hips
I can take your taichi moves
Let me roll my sleeves and take you on
The fat lady teases me
You are no taller than me
I will beat you till you (look as if you) are drunk
I will take you on tonight if you don't believe me
(The video appears to be cut. He appears to be singing.
Zhe ge xiao ge shang de lai, I am able to come up or take you
on instead of zhe ge xiao ge mo zhuang feng, I am not
feigning madness)
I am able to take you on
I will do you till you collapse
I know kungfu
I will floor you after two or three rounds
This gentleman knows no shame
You claim to have that kind of kungfu
Your kungfu skills have no foundation
You'd better kowtow and admit defeat
Listen to me, thin lady
My kungfu skills are nasty
One blow to your bottom
You'd be yelling 'yayo'
The gentleman facing me looks lewd
He thinks he can lord over me with his punches
Should he tease me, the fat lady, I would flare
And slap and beat the pulp out of him.
Listen to me, fat lady
The slaps of your kind
Teases me and I would flare up
And I'd do you till you could only eat gruel
The gentleman facing me won't do
He spews nonsense as soon as he opens his mouth
He teases me for my looks and I flare up
I would stuff him into a vat (that is used for preserving
vegetables)
Come on then, fat lady, come on then
I am not afraid of your vat
I have a gun that can fire 20 rounds
I can shatter that vat of yours within one round
How should I say this? How I should I say that?
I am not afraid of your 20 rounds
It is a pity your gun is not loaded with bullets
Your gun is utterly useless
Don't say this or that out of jest
I can load my bullets anytime
(I have) longed aimed the barrel of my gun in your direction
To deal with you, the fat lady
This gentleman ought not to be so brazen
Don't you bully that fat lady
(Should the ) two of us ladies take you on
We will seize your 20-round (gun)
Since that lady said so
You said you (can) take away my 20 rounds
I am not afraid of the two of you bullying me
I still have an old rod with me.
Lover, come here, lover
You'd better listen to this lady
What use is your rod?
It is no better than a screw
Fat and thin ladies, come here
Listen to what this gentleman has to say, (I never)
Exaggerate or lie
I fall in love with 9 out of 10 (women / persons?) I see
Stop lying, stop exaggerating
You know no shame, blowing your trumpet
(After) marrying you for no more than half a year
I would be utterly ashamed and would have lost all face
How can you be ashamed? How can you lose face?
Let me take you out
Taking you on takes time
Becoming a loving couple takes time as well
This morning when I go out
Why do I feel sore all over
When I recall what had happened
(I say that) the gentleman is a scoundrel
After I get up, I go up the flower-filled hills
My body is not weak
Allow me to speak the truth
(Not subtitled , 12:17 mark, most likely qi che gang bang bie de wan)
(I can bend) the steel plates of a car
You have to climb that hill once you get up
You whine about your sore feet
I know why you have sore feet
It is because you are very weak
Don't be stupid, lady
I am still building up my body
I am steeling my head
I am (training my hands) to dig through foundations
This is not easy. This is not easy
Bending the plates of a car
Looking at your ugly face
You can't even bend a wheat stalk!
