When You Have annihilated the Impossible Whatever Remains, However Improbable, Must Be the Truth

There’s a difference between destroying something so it can never be true, and ruling it out through deductive reasoning why it can’t be true. There’s a greater opportunity to learn by dismissing something but leaving it intact.

+1 to your tamaniwa examples and adding “once in a while”

Oh thank you. In that case excuse the pun but

I just realised you are the OP on this and the last post I commented on, and you’re posting questions and answering them yourself to provide examples. Derp on my part.

As someone who has been asked for kanji tattoo advice for decades, pre Internet, its ok to draw inspiration from this picture for the design but then you check the text in a dictionary, draw up the tattoo pattern and these days check with knowledgeable people online on the final design.

Ha, fair point

Thank you. It’s not something I get to use often but that little bit of understanding made a huge difference that day.

Yeah even with native English speakers I’ve had “yes” to “is the LED flashing green or red?”

Aw thank you. I’m starting to run out of stories but you never know what this job will bring next.

Outstanding. Excellent work that one guy. I hope you milked it for all it was worth.

She’s back?

My Japanese isn’t good enough and I’m not asking my mum to help.

That’s her actual name? That’s almost as bad as when I wanted to name a character Nakadashi Anaru.
