You can probably find out more if you search for ancient Chinese pillows or such. I don't really know much about the topic :-)

@broccoliforest Oh, yeah! I forgot about the anti-virus software. (I almost typed "AV software", but then thought about what "AV" means in Japanese.)

I guess it must be "Avast" because of "AV". I never thought about it before.

I suppose "Avast!" is a good example of English 役割語 :-)

No one says it in real life, as far as I'm aware, unless they're jokingly pretending to be a pirate.

Or, y'know, seriously pretending to be a pirate, if applicable.

Is there away to write ², ³, etc with Google IME? Or will I need to add a new rule?

lang-8.com/895614/journals/… Using that to say "I want to do something." sounds so weird, is it popular?

@kuchitsu 「に」「さん」とか「２」「３」を変換して、出ないかな？
こんな感じで？
@kuchitsu 「ラーメンワンチャン。」・・・？
知らないｗ
これかな・・
"I want to do something." っていう意味は書いてないね・・

Hmm no, I don't get the small numbers. Maybe I need to enable something somewhere...
Only ③.

@kuchitsu veri popular :)
でも「ラーメンワンチャン」みたいな使い方は初めて聞いた

But the first example looks normal to you?
 
broccoli forest
broccoli forest
quite normal
I remember first it was used like "is there perhaps any chance that ~~??" (grasping at straw) situations

Seems like it might come from mahjong...

seems that the probability range is expanded now
@kuchitsu ah... I think it's from 2ch or somewhere
maybe because I'm not familiar with mahjong, but it doesn't seem to make sense in mahjong term
it says
mahjong (or other card games) -> fighting video game -> general slang
へー
> おおよそのところ、「可能性がなくはない」「少ないけれどチャンスはある」という感じで使われているようです。
> 「もしかしたら大丈夫」などもあります。
so the ラーメンワンチャン is a very far-going example
it's virtually only saying "I vote for ramen"

Hmmm. なくはない here is like a double negative?
 
broccoli forest
broccoli forest
yes
"not impossible" kind of

なんか全然知らない人のspam flag通知が届いた？？
@kuchitsu it reads わんちゃん{HLLL} means "doggie"
the slang is ワンチャン{LHHH} shortening of "one chance"

So this is at best a very rare usage that I should better avoid. Thanks.
