Who are these people? And do we really care?

We're seeing the Right rise again in the UK, it's important that we give these people enough copy and airtime, in order show them in the light they they are, nationalist, racist and politically inept. I really hope the liberals can handle that approach, the more we attack the Right, the more we run the risk of making martyrs out of them and their cause. It's best to let them have enough rope, no matter how uncomfortable that makes us.

This guy's ten times the danger of Sadam, has killed tens times the amount of his own people, but we've had no regime change because there's nothing for the allies to plunder. In fact the country needs building from scratch and no one wants to commit to that with no natural resources to credit such work against. Yes, the guy's an idiot, but the US and other's reaction tells it as it is, it's a non-commercially viable regime change. Poor people, RIP..

Yes, and have done, we didn't have to pay any deposit and got 2 months rent free. The place was a brand new 3LDK and the rent was lowered as well. The fudosan told us the unfortunate story, wife had hit her husband on the head with a wine bottle and he later collapsed in the hallway and was rushed to hostpital but was dead on arrival.
I mean are people not going to walk down roads where murders have occured?
Who cares, we made a killing (pardon the pun) and have really great place to live now.

The whole world continues to watch this sorry soap opera.
Only in America, how many times you caught yourself saying that this year?

They look like any Can Cam or Ani Cam model in the magazines. Who in turn, or visa versa, look like any 23 year old OL I see whilst taking my lunch in Marunouchi. Why would this look not be considered Japanese? It's the epitome of the current 'Japanese' look, the look of the unmarried office girl on the look-out for an unmarried dotcom owner who doesn't have to wear a tie and knows where all the best restaurants are in Roppongi Hilsu. What could be more Japanese? Anyone who asks for a more traditional look are the ones that are actually trying to caricature these girls. Nothing western about it, this is the look right now in Japan, have a look out of the window right now and tell me you're not in Kyoto..

A lot of ignorance on here, to the guy dissing Disco, mairishnairb, without Disco they'd be no Hip-Hop and that is a historical fact my friend, Hip-Hop grew from the roots of Disco and the majority of the original jams played by the pioneers of Hip-Hop were Disco records..
Anyway I digress as Disco loving hetro might do..
Shinjuku 2-chome's decline could actually be viewed as a positive thing, perhaps the Gay community don't feel the need to put themselves in a ghetto in 2009. And fair play to them I say..
