Why JapanI know I am going to be stoned to death for this, but what I don't like about Japan is foreigners attitudes. Not the foreigners themselves, I mean, *I* am a foreigner to Japan. It is the attitudes they sometimes bring with them, such as Amerikan arro...
Seijin no Hiheh And my family n friends think I am stupid for moving to Japan.
Every time I see photos like these, eat some crappy american sushi and have movies like Alvin and the Chipmunks shoved down my throat, I am reminded of why I work so hard to earn my...
Broadband in JapanMan, when I was living in Yoko, our download AND upload speed was rediculous. It was their basic speed too, but I could grab files in seconds vs minutes, except stuff from overseas, those took maybe twice as long. I could always tell when something w...
C73 EnterpriseHEYYYY DANYYYY! [I have a question]
Have you ever actually talked to any of those females at the shows, like this one posted? I could see how the regular maid thing would be seen as maybe cute, or interesting to some, but with the young ages portr...
Japanese HomeworkPoll needs revision. With the majority of votes above 7+ hours, I wonder if they are all like, 50 hours, or just 8-9. I guessed 8, then day there was no option.
Waste disposal in Japan@ Smokie.
HAHA Yeah, I was just thinking the same thing. I read the first paragraph in your post and thought you were off your rocker! I have lived in Vegas for bout 24 years, east coast for 4, Japan for a couple and now in Cali for 2 years, and I t...
Waste disposal in JapanThere is NOTHING which is placed inside plastic, that cannot be placed in a recyclable container of some sort. Paper, metals and glass can all be recycled and reused, plastic cannot without serious byproducts also being created. So why not just pass...
Nintendo Game CheatsI have stopped playing games more then once before, simply because I was stumped and was about to uninstall them. The walkthroughs are yes a bit of a spoiler, but #1 not everyone uses them, in fact very few do, #2 people are going to figure it out an...
Japanese Men Prefer 2DI don't get it... That's like asking a puppy, do you prefer a picture of bacon bits, or a real bag of them? [It's BACOOOOONNN! hehe]
I would imagine they all prefer the real thing, but they are either cowards or they are just giving up.
I gave up...
Japanese ElectronicsPlasma screen!?!? I would find the owners of that "old thing" and glefully pay them 2000 yen for that bad boy! Mabye a simple offer to the previous owners would do it??
ForumsI do regularly visit forums, but I see nothing wrong with what you have here. The problems with a site that contains a message board is the amount of work. They are fine, but need to be heavily moderated once they grow to a certain point. I know two...
Japanese DrinksI was a melon soda addict. I never drank ony of those enegry drinks, or anything that didn't seem obvious [green teas, sodas, coffees] because I was never sure if any of them had illegal aditives in them. I remember being told not to drink certain th...
Laptop VS DesktopDamn... share the wealth will ya?
I own a MBP and a badass XP desktop, but the noise, portability, dust, power, size, cost and another 50 reasons keep me from wanting to get another desktop.
Next upgrade will either be a nice slim MAC, or I will j...
Heroes@ Oshift
Really? Comeon man, think about it. It's an "Amerikan" TV series... This country still can't decide if there really are UFOs and who killed JFK. *sigh* I think we like our media tainted.
FutonI bought just the matress for around $200 when I first started sharing an apartment, but it didn't take long to notice the crazy amounts of dirt and nasties it would pick up from the floor, so we went to the Home store and I bought a basic frame. o l...
360 Beats PS3@ mikenogo
"I mean look at the line of "EXCLUSIVE" games
Unreal Tournament 3"
Can't count this one. Rein has already stated they will be making the game port for the 360, but the PS3 gets 6 months ahead of time, plus they want to work out the buis...
360 Beats PS3I have seen this news post all over the xbox sites and game reviews sites. What you won't find on those xbox sites though, is the fact that there is a new line up of PS2s coming out, and Sony is got something extra planned for the PS3. It's just a su...
EnoshimaWow, I remember that place too. Man you are bringing back so many memories... I don't know if I can wait for my degree anymore! heh
I met a girl at a coffee shop, and she took me there for our first "outing." I climbed to the very top where there we...
Tokyo TowerMy japanese teacher took me there about 1 1/2 years ago. I loved the view! Took so many pictures.
Did you find that little crepe-roll place underneath it? Did you try one of those? they rock. [I ended up with the banana/icecream one]
Presents in JapanI am confused. Your post says "a Japanese woman." But are you talking about someone's girlfriend/lady, or every women we know in Japan?
