[miltownkid]

You best get to at least lvl 93 Digital Pimp Ninja Knight before you consider stepping to the beaner! lol

[TheCampingTree]

O well just for your Information i have a lvl 121 Digital Pimp Ninja with the ability to Pimp slap you 100 Yards haha

[miltownkid]

Then let the beaner raiding games begin! lol

[TheCampingTree]

[TheCampingTree]

I win by default because When i Digital pimp ninja Pimps slaps both you and your digital pimp your beanie will fall off and i put it on a run away :D haha

[miltownkid]

Yes, but that would have been my decoy beaner laced with sleepy-time juice. You would have fallen asleep within 30 seconds of coming into contact with it and I would have stolen you Pimp Hand glove and sold it on eBay.

[TheCampingTree]

:O JERK!

[miltownkid]

I meant to say that in this video. If you register to the forums (see the link on the side) you can do that! :)

[TedSter17]

[miltownkid]

What up Tedster! Did you see I answered your question in the Q&A show? You should register to the forums (see link on the side) I have a category JUST for Chinese lessons.

[nobodycouldhavethis]

looking forward to learning some mandarin. i've always wanted to learn. it's hard to know where to start though . guess i'll start here

[miltownkid]

Yeah, I'm going to help answer that question over the weeks. My plan is to have "proper" lessons ready to be filmed come the fall school semester.

[GrieverAct]

is dachai university?

[miltownkid]

Da4xue2 = University in Mandarin.

[bruce2256]

Hey next Q&A can you and superman dress up all nice and that and make it look like a TV program and act like you have sponsers and that? Haha stupid think to ask, but uh yeah :P.

[Thrall320]

Hah that might be funny to see. Especialy if they tried to be like, serious TV people with no giggling and such.

[miltownkid]

Are you saying I don't be looking serious! ;)

[miltownkid]

:) We could do that for #3. I already have #2 picked out.

[RobeitoBonao]

hmm. i thought that Mandarin is the language in India. now i learned something more.. lol

[RickChimera]

Fantastic idea!

I tend to learn short phrases in as many languages as possible, but, when it comes to Mandarin, I've always had problems with the pronunciation.

Except being able to say "I love you" and "Show me the money!", I think it would be fun being able to count to 10.

[TheDoodlibop]

I know how to say I Love You in Japanese-- Aishteru~ and also Suki Dai Yo. In Chinese, if I'm not mistaken, it's Wo Ai Ni, right?

This is awesome MK (Mortal Kombat?! xD) I've been itching to learn Chinese because it's the most spoken language to date. Besides, it's a good thing to be a polyglot in a world full of diversity...close the gap, I say!

I have a few Q's

1.) Good resources for personal study?

2.) Pronunciation and character guide?

3.) Studying & practice tips?

I'm pumped about this!

[lalala213]

lol you spelled "mandarin" wrong nice vid. keep them coming! :]

[miltownkid]

Where?

[miltownkid]

Ah! On the white board. It just looks that way because of bad lighting... (I think! :) )

[kornstar108]

languages are not for me. ill stick to law.

[miltownkid]

Law IS another language. ;)

[nohmaninthezone]

Marshall Law, TEKKEN REPRESENT!

[boogeymane]

Is it me or is this a better quality video? Still using the Flip?

Wo zhi hui jiang ying wen. Wo hui jiang yi dian dian zhong wen.

[miltownkid]

This was done with Robo's Sony HD Cam. ;) Hopefully more will be done like this in the future. :)
