This woman is a living, walking cliché. A (no doubt cosseted and pampered) Manhattanite with a penchant for Southern vampire fiction, the obligatory iPhone references when there are numerous other brands with exactly the same functionality, the weekend yoga retreat in the mountains . . . I can't believe AP paid for this pap.
Oh puhlease

And there's absolutely no connection between geisha-dom and prostitution — no, no, I won't hear of it.
Look love, you're a hooker — get over it. What did you expect? Daily gifts of chocolates and soft toys?

JT, these figures are for megabits (Mb), not megabytes (MB) per second. Big difference. Not so long ago, speed performance was measured in the latter. When I came to Japan, I noticed that the standard abbreviation used for transfer speed was the deliberately ambiguous "M". Typical misleading ISP BS. If you want to find your Internet speed per second in MB as opposed to Mb (or "M"), divide by eight. Provides a much more realistic picture of what you're actually receiving — who the hell measures the size of a file in megabits?

Oh, and how could I forget — knuckle-crackers. This seems to be an exclusively male pursuit.

Got to agree on the mobile tones one. What the hell ever happened to manner mode?
And another pet irritation, mainly because it seems so utterly pointless: co-workers who insist on putting on the speaker phone while dialling and only then picking up the receiver after completing the number. Really, what could possibly be the point?

"I fear something has radicalized ordinary Swiss people.
I wonder what it could be."
Stellar post, ProfJuanColePhd! Hit the nail on the head with that one.

Ahh, the good old days . . . Standing up in some dodgy arcade playing Donkey Kong, Zaxxon, Pengo, Crazy Climber, Moon Patrol etc. Anyone know of an old-school arcade in Tokyo that still has some of the old classics?

Lovely jubbly. And let's not overlook this little gem from the essay (closing out in fine style):
For us, the sun is an important existence. We respect and fear the nature.
