Google Seppuku....

If you're using Microsoft Windows 2k or XP then just going to a web site with Japanese, such as Jeffery's Kanji Lookup in Japanese mode, will install the viewing support; then, IIRC, you can use the Keyboard control panel to say you want the IME icon on your taskbar. I don't have a real computer of my own anymore, and I get into control panels on this library computer to refresh my memory.
If you're using 95, 98, or NT 4, then you'll need to download Microsoft's IME tool and install the msjaime.exe.
The IME settings for each language can be customized pretty well, but the screens are half in Japanese and it takes some guesswork. IIRC, hitting ALT-SHIFT will activate the IME and then it can be set so ALT-~ will switch between Japanese and English (or you can click on the IME every time, but that gets to be a pain). You can also customize it so that, for example, it always inputs romaji and displays hiragana but then hitting F7 will switch it to katakana, etc. While in input mode, press space to have a list of "likely" kanji matches (and that feature can be customized to have a bias for normal words, places, names, etc.).
Sadly, IME worked for everything on my computer except MS-Word (Win2k and Office2k). I had to do my IMEing in the run box or MSIE then cut and paste...

Heh! Google Seppuku reminds me of an experience my friend once had.
She was trying to fix her toilet and needed to find a diagram explaining how to replace the "ballcock valve" (snigger all you want, that's really what it's called) so she did a GIS for 'ballcock' and, of course, came up with lots of creepy pornographic images.
I mentioned that she should have refined the search with "ballcock + toilet".
She said "Oh, I did, but then it just came up all German porn".

heh.. that reminds me of a game we used to play called JellyBelly Flop.
You'd get a pound or two of the assorted Jelly Belly Jelly Beans.. and make sure its the HUGE ASSORTMENT of FLAVORS!
The challange, take a huge handful.. try to fill your mouth with beans, and chew them up as fast as you can. The last person with a mouth full of horrible conflicting flavors is the winner.

My guess would be the same reason they made the soap that sains you hands red, the binoculars that give you a black ring around your eyes, the can of peanuts with spring snakes inside, and those little superhot candies that look like nomal none hot ones.Peaches wrote: They seriously made those. WHY?
So just what is Gainax trying to say here?

I doubt it; I've never known them to be used as a prank, but I've known folks (even my own age) buyng them for their novelty. I'd say it's closer to the reason why Skull Crushers and Wacky Pack stickers were popular when I was a kid: the gross-out factor. Surely a fan of GGC can understand that...AkaneJones wrote:My guess would be the same reason they made the soap that sains you hands red, the binoculars that give you a black ring around your eyes, the can of peanuts with spring snakes inside, and those little superhot candies that look like nomal none hot ones.Peaches wrote: They seriously made those.

If by "fun" you mean something that makes you want to pull your eyeballs out with a spoon and seal the empty sockets with hot wax... yes, I had some success.Deuce wrote:Has anybody succesfully done this?
I did the IME thing and went to google.jp and started running random string searches but came across nothing "fun"
If you have had success please post the string that you searched for.
Thanks

What I found playing Google Seppuku can only be described as terrifying.

Um, beware, it's kinda 18+, but then again, I guess ghastly's comic is, too...By the way, I'm new here. I felt the need to share this and maybe scar some other people.
I found it using the Kanji "仝".

Pfft... that's tame, no worse than all the oh so wrong Fun Fun Pharmacy H-pics I sifted through without doing that. Wait those pics of Popuri were worst, that's just a little nudity.Bunnywith wrote:What I found playing Google Seppuku can only be described as terrifying.

Re: Google Seppuku results
True, but in my mind, DiGi Charat porn is about as terrifying as you can get. Like Care Bear porn, or something. wtf.AkaneJones wrote:Pfft... that's tame, no worse than all the oh so wrong Fun Fun Pharmacy H-pics I sifted through without doing that.

Some do bow in that final direction. Others advance upon it. To bow before the one is to lose sight of the three. I may submit to the unknown, but never to the unknowable.

Oh yeah? Well what about Merrie Melodies orgy porn? No points given if it isn't an orgy. 1 point for a threesome, 5 points for a foursome, 10 points for a fifthsome and 25 points for 6 or more orgy.Lowky wrote:ask and ye shall receivesquidflakes wrote:What, you want Care Bear porn?Bunnywith wrote:True, but in my mind, DiGi Charat porn is about as terrifying as you can get.
