@japan_nobunaga A society where military veterans, the people defending the flag, the society itself, is not taken care of deserves every bit of the doom and destruction that befalls on them.
I said what I said.
A nine-year-old named Mason knocked on my door and asked if I would come to his school for career day.
"What is career day."
"You come to my class and tell them what you do."
"What do I do."
Mason looked at me with the patience of a boy explaining a door to a man. "The samurai thing."
I prepared a presentation. I practiced it for Mason on my porch. He stopped me twice.
"You're doing the voice."
"What voice."
"The movie voice. Just talk."
A firefighter went before me. He brought the truck. I want it noted, for the record, that he brought the truck.
The questions of fourth graders are the most honest interrogation I have ever survived.
"Do you have a sword?" I do not bring it to schools. "Why not?" Laws. "That's fair."
"How much money do you make?" Less than the dentist. "That's bad." It is not great.
"Do you know my dad?" I do not. "He knows YOU." This was never explained.
Then a girl in the front row, who had said nothing all hour, raised her hand and asked the question I have been asking myself for years.
"Are you a real one?"
I have been asked this by strangers online a thousand times, and I keep a shelf of clever answers ready for it. But something about that room — the small chairs, the girl waiting — made every clever answer leave my head at once.
"I do not know," I said. "I am trying to be."
The girl nodded, as though I had passed something. Mason nodded too. The teacher, Mrs. Alvarez, did not correct me and did not rescue me. She let the answer stand in the room like a flag.
The class has a hamster. It watched my entire presentation from its wheel, running. I never learned its name. It is the only audience member whose opinion I still wonder about.
Two weeks later, Mrs. Alvarez handed me a stack of thank-you notes, written in crayon, in the giant handwriting of people who have not yet learned to lie.
"Dear Mr. Samurai. Thank you for coming. You were the only one who said I don't know. I didn't know that was allowed."
One of them had a drawing of me. I am taller in it. My sword is enormous and, I must note, present, despite the laws.
It is on my refrigerator now. In this country, the refrigerator is where a family puts the things that matter.
The dentist has a billboard on the highway.
I have a refrigerator.
@joyo0202@MumbaichaDon@nsitharaman Actually not. All refunds starts processing after July deadline ends. I had once filled in April got the refund in August. Now I file on July and still get the refund in August
@poojaofficial5 I did some simple math, even after taxes the white money income is over 16 lakhs per month. Damn that is insane. There are projects woth 16 lakh a year for which companies hire workers with 3.2 lpa ctc.
प्रधानमंत्री श्री @narendramodi जी देश के गौरव का ��्रतीक हैं जो वैश्विक मंच पर भारत की पहचान को मजबूत कर रहे हैं राष्ट्रीय सुरक्षा सुनिश्चित कर रहे हैं और सांस्कृतिक विरासत को बढ़ावा दे रहे हैं
क्यों पड़े हो चक्कर में
कोई नहीं है टक्कर में

BJP workers throwing mud at TMC Candidate Raj Chakraborty. This shameless fellow is a Movie Producer who openly discriminated against pro BJP Actors & permanently kicked them out of Tollywood. Karma has a full cycle.
🚨SHOCKING : BJP candidate Debangshu Panda alleges that BJP's button was blocked with tape in Falta (Diamond Harbour).
Jahangir Khan is the TMC candidate from this seat.
Re-election should be announced here! More videos 👇

@JpackJack @goyal_speaks @Tweeter_wapsi Bhai ji. I am from bengal. Abhi toh Pune rhta hun, but my family lives in Kolkata and I speak to them daily. From them it seems kind of a dicey situation. Could be a hung assembly. Hard to say BJP win.
Aap apna prediction v bta do.
@_outspoken__@Iyervval Just in case you don't know the ground truth - All BLOs are State Govt. Employees. TMC has been openly telling BLOs that when they win, they will take revenge on the BLOs.
I dont know about others but I understand the suicide. But SIR should go on.
When a fly falls into a cup of coffee:
The Italian: Throws the cup, breaks it, and walks away in a fit of rage.
The German: Carefully washes the cup, sterilizes it, and makes a new cup of coffee.
The Frenchman: Takes out the fly, and drinks the coffee.
The Chinese: Eats the fly and throws away the coffee.
The Russian drinks the coffee with the fly since it was extra and came with no charge.
The Israeli: Sells the coffee to the Frenchman, sells the fly to the Chinese, sells the cup to the Italian, drinks a cup of tea, and uses the extra money to invent a device that prevents flies from falling into coffee.
The Palestinian: Blames the Israeli for the fly falling into his coffee, protests the act of aggression to the UN, takes a loan from the European Union to buy a new cup of coffee, uses the money to purchase explosives, and then blows up the coffee house where the Italian, the Frenchman, the Chinese, the German, and the Russian are all trying to explain to the Israeli that he should give away his cup of coffee to the Palestinian so there will be peace.
