Next they should invent a pedestrian collision prevention system for pedestrians. Too many people seem under the impression it is OK to move (walk) while staring at their mobile devices.

I hope this has loud slurping sound as background. Else, some important part of "Japanese culture" is missing.

Indeed, like the whole media industry seems under the impression that all "U" must sound like "A" - thus pronouncing their work places "stadio". IT industry ... says "Linax". It's interesting that these things are not fixed, even though kind of obvious.
Cheers

If that "senior manager" did indeed behave as described, one can only wonder how the heck he came to that position, especially if his field of work is human resources.

Seen anti-herpes drug commercials on JP TV? They must have some reason. I know some kids who 'somehow' got infected with oral herpes in primary school(!). Maybe not kissing around but sharing same drink/food, I don't know. Also a while back even carps in JP experienced some herpes problems. But we should think positive, have a nice weekend and - happy kissing!

My take on why it was 10 : Probably to obfuscate the fatal hit. Nobody can say who exactly killed the man. So the upcoming penalty will be split by 10?!

He may consider a balloon or other flying thingy. By air seems the best to get around these guards. It'll be faster to accomplish than digging an underground tunnel.
