I was genuinely surprised that she's 29. She looks more like 39!

Can you imagine reading "he was not English" on BBC or "she was not American" on CNN...it sounds so ridiculously accusatory.

This old cazzo has pretty much ruined any chance of a healthy sexual relationship these girls could ever hope of having.

Me too, and I'm sick of hearing it. But then again I always love telling Japanese people that I'm a Scots, Welsh, and Irish man of English descent. The dimwits.

"Mixed heritage": what a ridiculous moniker. We are all of mixed heritage, are we not?

What were the "best intentions" of this teacher then? The less time we spend thinking about and fearing these so called "terrorists", the better.

Let me answer that for you Noriko: none.
Posted in: Observing the education of small children overseas, I was struck by how different the education is from Japan. They take a scientific approach to child education. For example, how many nursery teachers in Japan have master's degrees in education or psychology?

I think the writer is confused about the difference between the stupid and the wise, rather than how much time they have spent or experience they have living here. Japan has a remarkably high percentage of western imbeciles within its borders; you'd be better off speaking to as few of them as is humanly possible.

Yeah, what's going on with that? I always have to ask them to seat me somewhere else.
The most annoying thing for me, especially in so-called 'high-class' or exclusive restaurants is the terrible timing of most waiters/waitresses, who interrupt you mid-sentence to loudly inform you of all the special ingredients in your dish, as well as how to eat it. It makes me mad. Every. Single. Time.
Posted in: What are some differences you have observed between waiters and waitresses in restaurants and cafes in Japan and other countries and also the way in which customers treat them?

Bicultural - yes, but not only in other Asian currencies, where it's considerably bulkier.

On a bicycle? I imagine carrying 1,000,000 yen in notes must be fairly bulky but would presumably fit nicely into the basket of a mama-chari.
Wait. A mama-chari aided this crime. I think we should ban them as soon as humanly possible with little to no consideration.

Best to stay as far away from the water in Osaka bay as possible; some of the most polluted in the world.
