You're thinking too much. Actually I was just riffing on him saying 'icecream'.
But now that you mention it...
But don't change it! It's cute.

When I first saw 'suck' I went with this story someone had (or maybe it was even in the book) about a baby reaching out its hands and sucking with its mouth on the milk bottle. But now I've been corrupted by all the sexual stories on this site and I keep failing the kanji because I keep thinking it has to be something sexual and I can't remember my story. XD

Bad choice of weapon

Heh, I don't know, after playing against creative pro Quake players, getting 'pwned' and then just observing them, I realized that humans truly are the most dangerous game and lost interest in 'achievement motivated' gaming vs. pure fun. ;p

LazyNomad Wrote:I am not sure if the stories should be bizzare at all times, as Heisig suggested to do. In fact, if I can see a simple and logical meaning in kanji I woild better stick to it, then trying to imagine some absurd images (for example, as Heisig suggested in 洗).
Bizarre stories are good, when there are few of them. If all of the stories are bizarre, the sense of bizarreness is lost.

洗 is a good example of what I consider one of the problems with some of Heisig's stories. In order to get bizarre and "not allow..rationalism to creep into our stories, not even...once" he'll go completely, and unnecessarily, out in left field or even completely out of the ballpark, as in this case. My story is "You must wash your hands before eating cows' legs.", which I think is very funny (maybe because I don't eat beef) AND tells me all I need to know about the kanji.

Plus, it's short, which is another issue I have with Heisig's stories. Eighty words for a four-stroke kanji like 介 is ridiculous, especially when you have another 750+ stories to cram into your brain.

Of course, when I don't like Heisig's story and I can't come up with something useful on my own (four failures? hello! new story, please) I always go to shared stories, and I must say I've never seen anything there I considered offensive. Sophomoric, yes, but not offensive.

Fun is for wimps. ;-) Anything-goes competitive gaming strategy is now a branch of personal development. (See Sirlin's "Playing to Win.") When you're way smarter and don't tolerate mediocrity like everyone else, keeping jobs becomes difficult. Think power. If it doesn't work out, you can always recreate yourself as a human rights advocate (freedom from illegal search & seizure.) (?) Humans are ... complicated.

And we come full circle. (be prepared...) :-)

Haha, is that a real person? I read the site...

I've found a powerful and humane method for living that transcends competition and cooperation, but it's a secret.

My story is even shorter "wash BEFORE!"

Hey! What's with all the reports on every story?
