Unless the gaijin gal is rather attractive, most of them are rather hard-up and bitter in my experience. Just stroll down Omotesando on a spring afternoon and you'll see that the average gaijin guy would rather have a bit of intercultural communications.

thepossum - Sorry to hear that, maybe they've overexpanded too much and quality has suffered accordingly... Been a fan ever since I went to the original on the North Shore of Oahu about 15 yrs ago but haven't been in 2+ yrs. Have a grill at home now so I…

Try Kuai Aina (various locations: Aoyama, Kanda, Gotanda, Marunouchi)or my favorite Franklin Ave in Gotanda (the nice part). Both are excellent and it is always a good sign when they ask you how you'd like it cooked and it takes a while to prepare. AS Classics is near Komazawa Koen…

Actually, considering the penalty for multiple armed robberies, that is a craptacular amount of cash = FAIL. If this was India, not bad but here if you are very frugal, that might last a couple of months (unless he lives with his units).

I've been to a few of the Nobu places, the one in Tokyo is very close to my office and I've been for lunch a few times. The food is tasty, fresh & well-presented, extremely consistant, smooth service, fairly spacious. Though my local sushi place and my Japanese wife's cooking…

Fine, not a ban. The intertubes is rather vast - my point is that it is a waste of time. Google searches will find the info that the damaged snowflakes are searching for, if not on ISPs in Japan, then somewhere over the rainbow.

Yes, in the US (and other countries) there are speed eating contests going back decades BUT do you know the names (and excretion schedule) of these people? Do they have agents and write books? Are they on the freaking TV day after day? This waste-of-oxygen is literally famous here, that…

tiredallthetime - if your condition is that chronic, long-lasting and life-affecting and yet defies diagnosis, perhaps you need a change of lifestyle/career/location or a very loooong vacation. Have you considered that it may be a mental condition that is the cause of this array of symptoms? Sorry but if I…

It is the same as attempts at banning the Anarchists Cookbook or MeinKampf - the info is out there, you can't take it back. Hey, let's hide sex manuals and kids won't have sex. If people want to end thier lives, alternative methods abound. This just makes the police look…
