Wasan

The native Japanese mathematics that was developed independently during the Edo period (1603–1868)—when Japan was isolated from the rest of the world, and when math was enjoyed as a pastime by both adults and children, and by folks of all social classes.

Wasan was replaced by its Western counterpart after the start of the Meiji era (1868–1912)—when Japan opened up to the West, and local scholars started adopting Western mathematical techniques.

wasaaaaaaap

Most annoying catch phrase of the new millenium. Only said when greeting someone on the phone but you have nothing to talk about. If said otherwise, it proves your idiocy.

1: Wasaaaaaaap!?
2: Wasaaaaaaaaaap!?!?
1: Wasaaaaaaaaaaaaaap!?!?
2: So, why'd you call me?
1: No reason.
2: Good gracious!
1: ... Wasaaaaaaaaaap!?
2: Wasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap!?!?

Continues for hours.

WAIANAE

Located on the west end of Oahu. Waianae gets a bad reputation for being poor, dirty, scary, etc. Its hot and dry out west and the beaches are super nice. Makaha, Yokes, and Pray for Sex are some great beaches to name a few. Mostly locals and the majority of the homeless live out here. Even though its a little rough, the people have alot of aloha who live out here. Most important thing here is to have respect for other people and their stuff.

Eh bro, we go cruise Waianae fo go surf Makaha!
