Translator San: He just dont give a damn​


From KYM. Text slightly redacted for language
About

Translator San (a.k.a “He Just Doesn’t Give a Damn”) refers to Japanese-English interpreter Takayuki Nushida who became the subject of an exploitable photoshop meme after translating at an E3 event using a pen and notepad.

Origin

At Sony’s press conference at E3 2009 held on June 2nd, Kazunouri Yamauchi, the CEO of Polyphony Digital gave a presentation for an upcoming Gran Turismo title for PlayStation Portable. Yamauchi was accompanied by an interpreter who opted to read his hand-written translations from a notepad, rather than the conventional real-time translation that is more commonly used during press conferences.



Spread

Nushida’s dillegent note-taking was seen by many viewers as comically out of place and aloof, instantly leading to a lengthy photoshop thread[1] on 4chan’s /v/ (video games). Later that day, a YouTube video of the presentation titled “He Just Doesn’t Give a Damn” was uploaded, receiving over 100,000 views in the first two years. Soon, more photoshopped pictures of the GT5 translator began to surface across sites like NeoGAF[1], Kotaku[2], the IGNboards[3], Game Trailer Forums[4], and the Japanese blog Hatimaki.[5] Between June 9th and June 10th, two YouTube compilation videos showcasing the photoshopped variations from the aforementioned threads were uploaded.

That moment when you realize that you have just accidentally made a double post, but it's in the meme thread, so instead of marking it as "delete." You make it into it's own meme.
 
Really wish I can participate to most of those rooms on Online section.

Otherwise I stuck on GTIC/asia pacific/east asian plus Australian room. There is too much lag when I try to play serious with other than that.

Hope I can join your room, @nascarfan1400 . Soon when I move to America.

Fun runs? Or the other ones like hardcore Mazda? IROC? VRR??..ETC

The problem is that i'm playing with guys in 'murica, UK...etc while i'm in middle east (yeah I live in middle east, deal with it...) and with my crappy internet connection + PD p2p servers = totally bad idea...

While i'm traveling, I went into couple different hotels and all of them had Internet connection from 15 to 32 mb/s (both down and up) while in my home, I only got around 2 - 4 mb/s...

Well i havent touch any of the online section of this. I ussually play on GTIC community (local comunity). You wont believe how far from here to America.

I mean i got kicked over a FUN drag room for lagging. Its not even a "slideshow" lag. Just a stutter or hillarious random skidding (at 10 ish cars ussually) Okay a lag, but not so bad its horrible.

I thought your psn says youre in America?

Nah I use 'Murican PSN because..

1. No support for PSN in my country and most guys over here is ether using UAE PSN or US PSN.

2. Even if there's a full psn support here, I might only use it for buying games, DLC...etc and not use it to play online since it caused a lot of trouble and problems with some racist people who just kicks me out of rooms or insults me for random stuff or because where i live... (that happened a lot on my old psn and I didn't like the psn name btw).

Between all PSN friend guys I have (172+), around %2 - 3 actually know where i'm from.

Another (unrelated) problem is that while I always find lobby in nearby country's and I do sometimes join their rooms (don't ask me why...:P), most of the GT online lobby types I want to join are almost impossible to find.
Quick xxx pp races? Nope. Cruising? Nope. Meet ups and such? Nope. Fun one makes? Nope. Online race series? Nope. Trackdays? nope. And the list goes on...

The only thing I mostly find from nearby country's on GT6 is this...

Except it's ether on Fuji or SSRX since TGTT is gone...:(

(Also sorry for making this long "unrelated to Meme" post and the fact of some of psn names are shown...).
