Brings back memories when there was heavy Mitsubishi bashing in Japan. Of course, they were completely at fault so it's not much of a comparison though.

Crazy, isn't it? I see these J-moms everyday. The worst by far was this boy, with his head out of the window. That was way past insane.

Hurry up and invent hands for him so he could actually do something to help... like picking up the hakusais and negis.

The stupidity of the Japanese TV programs is relieving at a time like this, I guess. I watched a couple of tarento programs and last night Die hard 4 was on. Plain fun.

DXXJP, yes, my next question. WHERE on earth IS THE FATHER?
But then, since she was using an "internet dating website", she probably was single.

How can anyone get 95 years and still walk free on the streets? I guess something's very wrong with the system.

Did she really get over her addiction? I thought it would take more time, and in a rehab center or something.

I Guess this is what you get from the saying "The customer is god" (or, The customer is always right.) in Japan.
They never complain until it gets too silly in the end.

smithinjapan, I think they return the damaged magazines together with the clean ones that were left over to the publisher. So there's no damage to the book store or convenience store. That's why they don't give discounts.
I hate people blocking my way as in the pic, so I say "Sumimasen" and make way to get my magazine.

jason6, it would be pronounced sukai tsurii- I think. Anyways, this is supposed to replace Tokyo Tower, so first they tried to name it new Tokyo Tower or TT2 or something. I'm glad they got a different name for it. Putting "New" infront of everything is pretty dumb.

Like the series "Heroes", they always have some Japanese actor/actress to get the Japanese buying DVDs or watching payviews...
Sanada is a very good choice, but I think I can wait until it's aired free on channel 6, which is going to be years from now. Maybe even a decade. I'm watching season 3 now...

Beelsebub, I was about to post the same article. Now watch people here babble about how the teacher's techniques were not good enough, etc. I dearly hope that there are no more suicidal tragedies coming from this typhoon.

Uh, Klein2, are you a teenager? :) Pretty funny, but go too far, and the clerks will stare at you as if you're the one who's not able to count.
I might add, try doing that in Spain, and they will give you a whole stack of coins because they don’t calculate, they just count. Give them 11 euro cents for 6 for example, instead of giving you a 5, they would say 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 giving you a 1 euro cent coin on each count.
Now about the article, I wonder who the target buyer is. A piggy bank collector?
