Happy birthday... mines next week too. Mogski what day is your b-day?? btw- I'm pretty sure that in Japan, men are not supposed to be excited about their birthday or throw parties. I think all the fun and excitement is reserved for women...

Typically American... Never take responsibility for your own behavior. It's always someone else's fault.

Jogging gaijin stopped by the police
MistaSparkle replied to TheOrange's topic in General off-topic discussions
I had a little run in with the fuzz this weekend. I was riding my bicylcle with a friend standing on pegs on the back of the bike. We rode past a koban, and then she got off, and I started to lock up my bike. This little police guy came marching over all red in the face barking "Abunai! dame!" He continued to carry on about how 2 people on a bike is dangerous, then looked at my bike and started scribbling something down on a pad. In the midddle of his absurd tirade, I just shrugged my shoulders and walked away. The police are completely pointless here. -
I dig light beers, so like happoshu.

Do you think that Hilary Clinton....
MistaSparkle replied to maya's topic in General off-topic discussions
I don't think the majority of america is forward thinking enough to look past gender. Plus... Hillary Clinton has alot of haters. I don't know much about her political stances, but when she ran for senate in New York, there were so many people that held sentiments like "anybody but Hillary Clinton." -
In the states, it's ok to say black depending on how you use it. For example if you were to call someone a black dude/man or a black chick/woman, it's usually fine, but referring to someone as "a black" is offensive. "African-American" is a bit over-PC if you ask me, but "negro" is definitely NOT a word that should be used to describe someone. It really depends on the person, but there are alot of seemingly harmless words that could also be offensive, like "bro" or "sister."

Neighbourhood meetings and money
MistaSparkle replied to Karnidge's topic in General off-topic discussions
akibun, noone thinks you're stupid or is trying to cause trouble. I think it's just normal that if a person is asked every year to pay a significant amount of money, they should know where that money is going. If noone ever asked, how do you know that money isn't going to the local yakuza, or making someone very rich? -

s_f_g - That site is great... natsukashii -
found this on a blog someplace: Japanese t.a.t.u. clone There's no mistaking they're a tatu clone when their 1st single is a cover of a tatu song. ...but like everything else, Japan has the wonderful ability to copy something and make it better. Those chicks are cute!

Japanese getting angry

I think that cool-headedness has got something to do with Japanese culture's roots in buddhism. -

bm - I think you steered clear of offending anyone by not agreeing or disagreeing, but I think your suggestion hit the nail on the head. Organized religions are in one way or another, cults. *runs and hides...*
