Let it never be said that I can't poke fun at myself. Hell, there are so many people taking shots at me I might as well show them the right way to do it, for I am A Japan Elitist!!!!!
The Roley Creed
R ecognizing that I was volunteered to be a translator, fully knowing
the hazards of my chosen profession. I will always endeavor to keep my mouth closed as an uke, to protect the honor and high "esprit de corps" of my Roley Regiment as well as my teeth.
O wing to the fact that a Roley is a more elite foreigner who arrives at the honbu dojo by train, bicycle, or car. I accept the fact that as a Roley Japan expects me to move further, faster and fight harder than any other foreigner.
L ighting candles in the proper fashion on the kamidana, I will always glare at culturally insensitive visitors and forget they are probably jet lagged. I will always keep myself mentally alert, physically strong and culturally aware, I will show the world that I am a specially selected and well trained foreigner. My courtesy to Japanese shihan, neatness of dress and care of equipment shall set the example for others to follow.
E nergetically will I meet the enemies of my country. I shall defeat them on the field of battle for I am better trained and will fight with all my might. Compassion is not a Roley word. I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of Roppongi and under no circumstances will I go to Kabuki Cho.
Y earning to prove myself as an accomplished Japan elitist, I will display the intestinal fortitude required to pay attention in class, continuing on to the Roley objective and complete the mission, though I
be the lone survivor.
Roleys Lead The Way!
