Not just adorable, but good for you!:
Thank you! Thank you so much. For YEARS I’ve been hearing things described as what I assumed was Kauai, and was totally baffled. “That’s a picture of penguin” I’d think. “Penguins don’t live anywhere near Kauai. Even the Galapagos kind are thousands of miles away.” I am deeply grateful to finally have that cleared up.
Though now I find myself wondering why so many of my fellow Americans would assume I’d think of a Japanese term instead of a part of our common country…
My pleasure. And just look at that baby cheetah…!
I can haz focus?
Well, for one thing, it seems to be a bit of a shibboleth for anime lovers.
I’m also not sure it hasn’t leaked into general geek culture from there.
