I do not understand why men like swimsuit campaign girls and even remember their names.

I must admit though, it's better than remembering the names and vital statistics of anime women with huge busts dressed up in sailor uniforms. At least these girls are real.

I don't know about the groupies, but I was talking to a Japanese man in his 40s who said, in all seriousness, that "Lucy was no doubt just as much to blame for her death as Ichihashi, so he should be set free."

I don't want to take the discussion off ｔrack, but lets get our facts straight. Smith did not support slavery. He…

Of course he can diss Christianity all he wants because the backlash will be minimal. But what would happen if he said the same thing about Soka Gakkai?

Now if he'd only have the balls to say the same thing about religions that have larger followings in Japan, such as…

People that complain about passengers travelling with kids. What do they expect us to do? Travel by cargo ship? Shove the kids in a suitcase and store them below?

Also, not passengers, but flight attendants with attitude. Some of them are convinced they hold glamour jobs and have attitudes to…

My first instinct of course is to call the cops. But I must admit I have a (probably unfounded) suspicion that any call from a foreigner reporting this wouldn't be treated with the seriousness and immediacy that a call from a Japanese person would.
