The police officers in charge of this case need to be seriously examined as to whether they are capable of doing their jobs. Poor girl. A life wasted.

anthony39, good points. Japanese get all freaked out over nothing. She would be way cooler if she just just played the rebel who doesn`t care what people think about her drug use.

numbskull, Id be interested to know what sites Japan has blocked you from seeing. China`s government is epic fail for trying to control the thoughts of its citizens and I will fully support a free speech revolution when it happens.

Posted in: Twitter to scrap controversial suggested user list See in context
Well, for those of us living abroad, MySpace and Facebook are a great way to stay in touch with people back home and let them know about your life. Twitter is a bit more corporate and actually promotes itself as a space to advertise one`s business, music, etc. So I say lets keep bashing Twitter and be thankful for Facebook/Myspace. Curious to hear what other JT readers think about this.

Finally a Japan Today article that hits the nail on the head, by referring to this retards as "airheads". Couldnt think of a better word to describe them. What pathetic no-lifes who have nothing better to do than idolize people that they see on tv, much less a murderer.

I know a lot of people here that hate bicyclists, because they nearly run you over on the sidewalk blazing past you at mach speed. I know people who have been run into by them as well. This is an act of revenge!

Posted in: Is chivalry dead on Tokyo trains? See in context
This is good, thought provoking commentary. The only point that I think the article fails to notice, is that chivalry is not dying, IT NEVER EXISTED in Japan. Something that was never there. For centuries. Japanese men are finally caving to Western pressure to treat their women like equals, but think about it, how many children are taught to treat women equally at home and in the classroom, and by sheer example of adults? Because there is no tradition of chivalry, it doesnt exist now.

Tarantino used to live in Japan, and apparantly he was quite obsessed with anime/manga. Then he woke up one morning and said, "what the **** am I doing here?" and headed back to the States and being a famous director. So he indeed understands the vicissitudes of the gaijin life. I think he enjoys playing the samurai-loving, totally geeked out gaijin.
