CALL TO ANYONE ON MY FRIEND'S LIST WHO KNOWS JAPANESE.

Please translate this for me. I want you to look at the characters, read them, and tell me what they say, even if you know what it's from already. I know what they should say, I just want to see if they really do say it. Thank you!

Says "baka" but it's written in katakana, when it should be written in hiragana. Like this ばか

Which again, means idiot. Yeah.

Could "baka" also mean fool?

Yes, of course, here, I saw Souji using this site, http://jisho.org/ and it helps me out all the time so I thought I'd share :3 It's also the best dictionary you'll find, paper, digital, or otherwise

Oh that's an amazing site!

Why should be it written in hiragana rather than katakana though?

Might I also add that, as far as I am aware, writing in katakana rather than hiragana is akin to writing in bold rather than regular font. So by writing ばか as バカ, it's expressing the word a bit more strongly. |D;;
