It is a parody on Buck-Tick's Koroshi no Shirabe this is NOT Greatest hits, and generally just reflects the fact taht we are totallys teh bestest sites on teh internetz and taht we pwn n00bs yo mofo Q. Will you translate (insert song title here)? A. Most likely yes. Information on requesting translations can be found here [link]. Q. Can I post your translations on my website, forum, LiveJournal, DeviantArt, MySpace, Facebook, etc? A. Bascially, no. The translations are Cayce's intellectual property and involve a tremendous investment of time and effort to write. Therefore Cayce, like just about any translator out there, asks that you do not post large volumes of her work on other public websites or public forums. If you would like to share her work on other websites or forums, please just post a direct link to Not Greatest Site. If you would like to post a translation of a single song elsewhere, you may email Cayce to negotiate. Posting of article translations elsewhere is never allowed ("elsewhere" includes the batsu forums!). Of course NGS has no way of knowing if you post anything from the site in your private online communications, however it would be appreciated if you did link back to us and of course always credited Cayce as the author of the translation. Q. Can I post your romaji on my website, LiveJournal, DeviantArt, MySpace, Facebook, etc? A. The romaji aren’t really our intellectual property, but they do take time to write, so if you want to use them somewhere else, please credit Cayce and link back to the site. Q. Can I translate your translations into a language other than English or Japanese? A. Message from Cayce: If you don’t speak Japanese but you want to, say, bring the BUCK-TICK love to Spanish-speaking fans, and therefore you’d like to translate my translations into Spanish, please email me. I’m happy to let you do it so long as you credit me for the English translation and link back to Not Greatest Site. However, I do rewrite my translations occasionally when I get new ideas about ambiguous meanings, etc. so let me know which songs you’re interested in so I can look them over before you go ahead and re-translate them. Q. Can I submit my translations to your website? A. We at This is NOT Greatest Site welcome submissions of lyrics, articles and interviews to be translated, cookies, concert tickets, bananas, money, and even Toll plushies. We do not accept submissions of translations (or articles or reviews.) As opposed to being an open team project, NGS is a personal collaboration, so we do not accept outside submissions of finished work. Q. Can I hire Cayce to translate something unrelated to j-rock? A. Yes! If you like Cayce’s work and would like to engage her services as a translator for your own purposes in exchange for remuneration, please email her. Q. I have my own website. Can I become an affiliate of This is NOT Greatest Site? A. While we encourage your endeavors and are grateful for any publicity you may likewise choose to give us, NGS is currently a standalone project and not part of any sort of networking. Q. How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could harness the power of the sun? A. The woodchuck would no longer need to chuck wood as the woodchuck would now have an infinite supply of solar energy and suddenly feel inspired to become more environmentally conscious and save trees. Q. How old are you, where do you live, and are you sexy and single? A. We are younger than Great Cthulu and older than the cells your body is currently producing to combat the aging process. We live in the holes in your brain, and according to your mother, we are both very sexy and very not single. Q. If I see something on your site that makes me angry, can I flame you? A. Certainly! It will give us more material to work with in the ridicule department. Q. How big ARE Toll’s bananas? A. Wouldn't you like to know... Q. What is the flight velocity of an unladen swallow? A. Somewhat slower than the flight velocity of a rampant Dalek. Q. Can the things live without the hairspring? A. No. Q. Would you like your penis enlarged? A. The boring answer is, well, we’re really not interested in any such enhancements. For a more interesting time, why don’t you go ask the alien from Alien, seeing as it has such an impressive head? Q. Are either of you the actress who appears in the “Sasayaki” PV? A. Of course we understand the obvious confusion, but the Sasayki chick was actually Kirby in a fetching disguise. And Kirby's smug 'cause he got to go drinking with Acchan aftwards and didn't have to bid for it on eBay or anything. Look at that smug little dance. <(^ ^<)<( ^ ^ )> (>^ ^)> Q. What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs in the afternoon, and three legs in the evening? A. A herring from Chernobyl. Q. Is everything you read on the internet true? A. Yes. Q. If you were in a visual kei band, what would its name be? A. Only the best name a visual kei band could have, and the only way to determine what this would be is by implementing Not Greatest Algorithm for Naming a Visual Kei Band: NGAFNAVKB We call this “Not Greatest Algorithm” because obviously it doesn’t really fit to algorithmic standards. For instance, what kind of crayons should one acquire? In addition, the Penny Arcade Remix Project was so like five years ago and that easily causes issues with backwards compatibility. Q. To be or not to be? A. What are you bothering us with your existential angst for? Go listen to Six/Nine. Q. Water is flowing into a conical tank at a rate of 3 cubic cm per second.
