  Who cares who the PM is? They'll just quit again within a year. Then the country will go through this massive idiocy all over again. The Japanese government is the laughing stock of the world, as it should be.

  “I feel like I’m watching events in another country,” said Takita, 60.

  Typical Japanese elitist statement. "Another country" wouldn't change leaders every 15 minutes like Japan does.

  “The Japanese race has become a degraded shadow of its former self. We brought this upon ourselves,”

  So what are you going to do about it?

  Japanese critics of The Hague treaty often charge that women and children need protection from abusive foreign men.

  What about abusive Japanese women? I was married to one but THANKFULLY we never had children.

  Even if the guy separates from his wife and moves out, he cannot get caught having an affair until I believe he is out of the house for at least a year.

  Not until he is legally divorced, and even after divorce, there is a 3 year statute of limitations in the event of an extra marital affair. Compensation money paid by the guilty party can be as high as ¥3000000 depending on the circumstances, and the people involved.

  Divorce in Japan can be very unpleasant

  not only do we want to bring back those people who have left Nintendo, we also want to create a new group of core users

  I "left" Nintendo because the game library was boring. The Wii especially, seemed Gundam and Pokemon-centric, and I'm not in elementary school anymore.

  I feel sorry for elderly who have no one to turn to. It's too bad more of them don't socialize, like the ones I see in the parks playing gate ball in the morning.

  As for the locals, they've always been more friendly and reliable than foreigners, who are usually only interested in drinking, or want something.

  So then the custodian did an office by office meeting and explained to every one that the fire escape had to be clear in case of fire therefore people were not to use it when there was not a fire in case there was a fire.

  Being told not to use fire stairs is not in the same league as being told what color underwear is permissible
