Horie told police he thought he could use it to drink tea from but ultimately decided that "it was better to sell it for cash."

wonderful story

maybe he could also use the cash he got to wipe himself on the toilet?

wait, on second thought, it might be better to use the cash to buy tea.

"Of course there are so many crises around the world, but we want everybody to actually get together and think about the future and sustainability," Yoshimura said.

yes, everyone ignore reality and come and waste your time and money in fantasy expo

Kosuke Ito, a 36-year-old doctor, said it would "strengthen the economy".

after completely obliterating it.

The construction budget has ballooned 27 percent from 2020 estimates to 235 billion yen due to inflation and Japan's chronic worker shortage.

I guess none of it matters when the tax payers are footing the bill.

well, then it’s just a matter of time. Great description cops.

did he have black hair and a white face mask as well? Slim build?

Kishida likely to discuss Texas bullet train project

Why? What bullet train(s) does he ride or know about?

all he does is fly on private jets and roll in private cars.

He has no idea what it costs to operate or use it, let alone build and plan for it.

Posted in: Kishida arrives in U.S. for summit, state dinner See in context

Kishida is also reaching out to the American public to showcase Japan’s contribution to the U.S. economy

yeah, he's telling them how weak the yen is and how the very powerful dollar is allowing for so many people to travel to Japan now.

Yet, the Japanese working class public and their economy is still in the toilet, despite all the tourism. Go figure.

Kishida, stung by a corruption scandal, needs a successful U.S. visit to shore up low support ratings at home.

No. he just needs to go. Away. Nothing short of capturing Putin and Xi by himself or uplifting the entire economy will get him into any kind of support in Japan.

Kishida said he plans to

well........that's where you know the article is complete nonsense. Kishida spoke.

Also now at TSA, you have to almost get undressed in front of everyone to even make it through security gates in some countries. A tshirt and shorts are a lot easier to remove than a 5 piece suit.

People used to dress up when they traveled on planes.

Idk, I'm too busy worrying about the absurd costs that airlines charge and the ridiculously weak yen to care about the style of clothes I wear around a bunch of strangers.

Do we get a prize or discount for wearing a suit on a flight?

Toyota to oversee model certification at subsidiary Daihatsu after safety testing scandal

> Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corp will oversee model certification at its subsidiary Daihatsu to regain trust among dealers, customers and workers after a safety testing scandal, Daihatsu's new president said 

Wasn't Toyota in trouble recently for fabricating false data as well?

Well, it must run in the "family."

Executive Vice President Masanori Kuwata, also from Toyota, said the basic way people work at Daihatsu must change.

What's the difference? both divisions got caught doing bad stuff......

 I used binoculars to make sure there were no people around beforehand.''

Exactly how far away was he from the faucet? lol.

pressing his anus against the water faucet 

thanks for the disturbing mental image.

There’s no way that thing can be cleaned. It has to be bleached and then blown up.

and then, after that idk how they will clean the faucet.

I'm kinda surprised there are no "reality shows" about combini life in Japan.

I gotta imagine, with drunk fools coming in at night, to jokers like this little punk with the knife working with middle aged people and throw in a few foreigners, there's gotta be some really entertaining moments at these places.

They don't have to show the same stores every episode, go around the country and show us what's up.

RATINGS!!!!

What do you expect when you don't require credit cards to book a hotel room?

And 80 nights? At least get a down payment up front.

Or collect at least once a week. Not after 11+ weeks.
