This post tells me you know basically nothing about Japanese women.

oh man, there's this blog about a giant black dude who went to teach in japan

kids tried to stick their thumbs up his asshole all year round, and one kid had a thing where he tried to grab the black guy's penis every day for the entire school year just to feel if it's as big as he's been told.

This brings back memories.

Oh Japan

Japan picks "schoolgirl" among cute ambassadors

Ever seen an ambassador dressed from head to foot in pastel frills? How about a diplomatic envoy in a mini-skirted school uniform?

In a bid to raise its international profile, Tokyo has appointed three young women as cultural envoys because they represent Japan's long-running craze for all things cute.

Inspired by the characters in Japan's distinctive "anime" animated films and "manga" cartoon books, one of the new ambassadors dresses as a schoolgirl, another as a Victorian doll in voluminous frilly skirts.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Alas, we can only look from afar and be content with observation.

I hope they trained them in karate and gave them samurai swords too, so nobody gets confused.

I think I remember reading that Nintendo owned a few love hotels back in the day, when their original game card business was starting to shrink.

There's a lot of Brazilian communites scattered throughout central Japan


capoeira is a pretty big deal for these people.


There are a gajillion little sub-cultures roiling under the surface of conservative Japan, and while they are tiny, the adherents are wholly devoted.



Japan is such a cool place, if only they could fix their stupid, stupid, stupid problems.

DarkPrimus

When I was in Okinawa one of the girls from the States in my group had a friend braid her hair into cornrows while we were over there. By the time we left a week later, it was the new trend there.

crwth

the best part about japan is that they've still got arcades

man i wish we had some sweet arcades like i saw when i was there

how i miss them!

sarukun

The best part about Japan is the karaoke studios and the izakayas.

crwth

i never went to an izakaya

kind of sucks i'll probably never have another chance to go to japan or else i'd make it a priority

You fucked up, kid.


They have a couple of sort-of knock-off izakayas here, but they are so God damn expensive.

Wagyu Beef from Japan is insane
they fence the cow when it's young
and then they feed it special grass and such
it doesn't really develop muscles
and it spends it's life just eating

then they kill it and oh god it is the best beef it is so soft and jahsagfh

no muscle development whatsoever is why

I'd cry while eating that.

Mostly because it is so good but also because that is the saddest story

They massage the cows for hours each day to tenderize the meat even more

They massage them with alcohol to give the meat a special flavour

And the little cow thinks he is special noooooo run away little cow run awaaaayyy

but it can't run it has no muscles!

so basically... veal?

When we did karaoke I was younger and still bashful about making a fool of myself in front of people.

Thanks to Rock Band that is no longer a problem.

I wish karaoke was big enough here to support the kind of places they have in Japan


all full bar to order from


all full kitchen making ramen and dumplings and shit




all with those wicked hot towels that are so comfy and awesome

crwth

see i only do karaoke at a dive bar downtown

it's the american way

DarkPrimus

When we went into the karaoke bar a couple people were carrying out the most inhebriated person I've ever seen and will probably ever see.

Literally, one arm over someone's shoulder, each side. And you could smell 'em practically from down the block.

Hey, been waiting for you to show up. Yeah, I didn't date any Japanese women, having a girlfriend and then fiancee every time I was there. However, I only met one woman I had the slightest attraction to. I'm sure there are plenty of smart, funny Japanese women, but I never met them.

Saru, you were in Gifu, right? That's where I'm moving to this time.

Houk

i have been with 2 japanese women. one did not make "those" sounds in any way, shape, or form. and i was glad

the second one made those sounds a little bit, but i was shocked to discover that when it's real life and you know they're actually enjoying themselves, its not all that bad

plus getting a japanese girl to yell 'iku! ikuuu!' is just the cutest little thing

DarkPrimus

Admit it, you made them wear school uniforms.

Here is a cool thing from Japan that I would actually like in my bathroom.

Japan has weird hi-tech toilets, but that is amazing.

Gifu prefecture, yeah, about 30-45 minutes on the Inuyama line from Gifu station.


The best women in Japan are generally older. Stay the fuck away from twenty-somethings and definitely don't go near any teenagers.

my hotel had a toilet with a heated seat and a bidet

truly the japanese are masters of the toilet

also during my two week trip i managed to never use a japanese-style toilet

Basically foreign languages during sex is the hottest thing.

extremely difficult to use when you are totally wasted.

Macro9

I guess that toilet is slightly better than my hole in the ground.

JoeUser

Have we talked about the girls who dye their skin really tan and wear weird neon stuff? I can't think of the name at the moment.

edit: oh, found it: Ganguro

Jimothy

I never really thought of a heated toilet seat. It's so obvious, I'm surprised they aren't everywhere.
