This is wrong and unfair to women on so many levels. I'm ashamed to call myself a kiwi.

The man is a lunatic. If only he had better competition, we might see the end of his insufferable stint as POTUS.

Posted in: Japan coronavirus cases pass 5,000 as state of emergency fails to keep people home See in context

In contrast to stringent lockdowns in some countries, mandating fines and arrests for non-compliance, enforcement will rely more on peer pressure and a deep-rooted Japanese tradition of respect for authority.

What a joke.

It's a sad day for sumo.

Posted in: Tokyo gov't urges people to refrain from cherry blossom parties in parks See in context

They said walking to enjoy sakura, or cherry blossom, is fine, but advised people to wear masks if they are coughing.

Masks don't do jack in stopping the spread of this virus. Stop telling people to wear them so that people who actually need them (people who suffer from chronic hay fever) can actually buy them.

The Samoan Islands has just recently recovered from battling a measles outbreak. So I can understand why they'd wanna keep people out.

But why Isreal?

Posted in: Ghosn, in Lebanon, says he left Japan to avoid 'injustice and political persecution' See in context

This actually brought a smile to my face. Looking forward to that press conference!

But Japan will just say that it's a lie and will never back down from that. Even though there will be overwhelming evidence to disprove Japan's claim.

Oh... So it's gonna be busy... Let's charge more, that's the right thing to do! Screw the residents who actually need to use it, just yank everyone for every yenny they can get.

If I were Australian, I'd do the right thing and bury my head in the sand.

SK is like a 4 year old child throwing a tantrum and crying in the middle of a room, wanting it's mommy to pick it up and tell it everything will be ok.

Seriously, grow. up.

Something tells me that none of the remaining 5 million dollars will ever see its way to the victims... Nor will it be "refunded" back to Japan.

SK, stop playing these retarded, old, pathetic games. Move on!

Posted in: Nissan shareholders OK governance steps, Saikawa remaining CEO See in context

Saikawa didn't get indicted because... Wait for it.... He's Japanese! Run the foreigners outta town, no worries there. Even when the defense asked the prosecution as to why he was indicated they said... I didn't think clearly enough.

Yeah, but you didn't think twice about taking down Kelly and Ghosn did you?

Posted in: Perdue barbecues to sell Japanese on buying more U.S. beef See in context

It'd work out better if we just had more options to be honest. I'll buy American beef for hearty meaty stews. But when it comes to steak, I'd prefer an NZ ribeye. And for curry, you just can't beat Japanese wagyu.

But I can't always get good NZ or ozzie beef, unless I go all the way out to Nissin in Roppongi

I guess my point is, share the market! We're the one's who are paying!
