WMD comments

I'm sure they would feel the same toward you

probably right there!

As usual, people on this comm can't believe that the criminal could possibly be a foreigner

I guess it's because posters are so used to foreigners being blamed for all ills in japan that when a foreigner really does do a crime (maybe) they just don't believe it. But times are hard, jobs are hard to find, english schools are collapsing, who knows??

Cool Biz What rubbish! So you can take your stupid tie off, big deal! Who invented the tie anyway, stupid piece of cloth just dangling there?!! Now if you could work naked that would be really Cool Biz and increse productivity in the workplace. But on second thoughts, the sight of some of the battleaxes unclothed would probably make me feel ill and lower productivity!

Embarrassing moments?? None. Don't drink at all, just indulge in MJ sometimes. But good luck to all. Each to their own drug!

screw it up for everybody

Screw what up?? Who cares what anybody else on planet Earth does? Live YOUR life.

Japanese just love to be together in their groups don't they! Who would do this everyday?? The same weak pathetic workers who work 12 hours day, unpaid overtime and have no holidays. In London last year when I visited England on business, I suppose you could say at least they were at least a bit more spirited. On the underground in rush hour I witnessed 2 full blown fist fights. Entertaining at least! Do the japanese go in for fisticuffs too on the Tokyo subway??

Don't get involved in a "situation". As a foreigner, you will be the one arrested regardless. Happened to my mate just recently. Keep clear. Let one of the natives do it.

Crime or suicide. The choices in a capitalist society??

ladies, ladies ladies, they stir your loins and just make your day!

Take ALL your paid holidays. How can these japanese workers be so weak and pathetic. Have a backbone, stand up for yourself for christ's sake. So pathetic.

japan forever the victim are at it again it seems.

15 hours huh? Just time enough to write his name in kanji and learn about the 4 seasons. Bet he doesn't have to be criminally fingerprinted at immigration. These film stars are way too big to force them in to those indignities that we ordinary criminals er I mean foreigners have to do.

Very true comments by everybody here. Next we will all have to have our anuses inspected before we go to travel naked on the aircraft. And our sheep will still be saying it's a price worth paying for security! Really some people are very well trained like pet dogs!

morons

Anybody that does even 1 minute of overtime unpaid is an absolute moron. We only go to work to get cash, so make sure you damn well receive it! Japanese workers who work for nothing are beyond belief. Stand up for yourself.

Those of us who work in a japanese company know just how weak docile and pathetic the japanese slave er I mean worker really is. I can't see things ever changing for the better.

OK if women want their own bogs then give men their own bogs too, Everybody is happy.

What morons the japanese workers are that they put up with not taking their holidays and doing unpaid overtime etc. This is supposed to be a group society, well get into your little groups, resist, fight back, demand your rights. Who can have any respect for the japanese worker?? Pathetic, just pathetic.

Reading this article, 2 points come to mind. Firstly, if Chinese men want japanese wives then they obviously don't like sex. And it's high time to scrap all this totally useless unproductive "learning" of English in the nation's schools. Learn Chinese young man and of course, young woman.

sumo is just so boring these days. Was much more interesting in the Akebono/konishki/ Taka-Waka days. Asa had a personality and tried to liven things up. His retirement pay is fully deserved. Hope to see him in K1 soon.

What an idiot. Ruined for what??

Wow, you even get porn in space now!!

Yes Asa has his own mind and personality and the old farts just don't like it. Yokuzunas are supposed to be robots didn't you know??

No idea why anyone would want to invest this much of their life in this place. There are so many other places in the world that these efforts would be appreciated more.

Yes, there it is in a nutshell, couldn't agree more. Why the hell bother with japan?? This little insular country is just going down fast.

Susan Boyle?? Just another singer making cash.

It won't be long before all passengers have to fly naked, modesty disregarded. And to stop explosives being secreted internally, every passenger will have to consent to having their a$$ probed. No hand luggage whatsoever permitted and all other luggage to be submitted the day before travel to enable a full examination. Take the train or stay at home folks!

I heard from my brother in law who is a mid-level immigration official at Narita that she was most surprised and upset to be fingerprinted on arrival. All arriving foreigners are suspected criminals even if they are going to appear on the red and white snooze fest.

How many people watch this snooze fest these days I wonder? I think I'll just watch the fighters battering each other!

Poor kid, just 17. Hope she will be all right in time. As for him....

Not bad singers I guess but yes why do they need all those nancy boy dancers prancing around like school girls?? And the japanese soccer team?? Ha they'll be back very quickly. But never mind, the TV will be ecstatic about them anyway.

presto345 I may be a fart mate, but I think I'd rather watch the "fighting" on the other channels. How about yourself??
