r45 4 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Been done before but there's one at the moment that is just mindblowingly deafening. The swallowing noises on beer/drink tv ads. There's one now with this jiji dude looking like a sukebe jiji and then taking a few swigs of some shite beer. And the noise. Want to punch the tv in. Link to post Share on other sites

brit-gob 9 Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Empty, wide, dual-carriage way road. No-one going either way. Early morning. An ambulance comes from behind. Clearly visible. Loads of room. Driver of my vehicle comes to an almost standstill right up against the left hand side of the left lane. "Why did you do that, there was tons of room, no need to do anything?" "Because we were taught to" Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I'd let the ambulance pass and then chase it. Link to post Share on other sites
jared 0 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Must have been going slow to end up with an ambulance behind... Where I was ambulances got around with sirens and lights blazing, but dont go a km over the speed limit. It was more likely that you would get caught in a line of traffic stuck behind an ambulance doing 50km (the speed limit) on a road everyone ususlly does 70-80km on. Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 another one that cracks me up is when there is a tiny road/street that has traffic lights on it and although its only 1 lane wide, people stop when its clear cos the red man is showing. There is one near my house and this morning this salaryman legged it past me on his way to the station, he got to this tiny road that never has any cars anyway, and stopped cos the red man was showing, as I crossed over I could almost hear his mind turning over....."gaijin is crossing....but there's a red light.....wait a minute there are no cars....I can cross!" he then proceeded to run past me again on his way to the station.

Go Native 70 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 We had some RedBull reps come in the other day. We manage two bars in Niseko this season and will certainly go through some RedBull. So of course we asked if we bought it in bulk would there be any discount per can. Answer? No. They did tell us we could have a happy hour and promote Redbull by offering it at a discount. Ok good idea, will they offer us any discount so we can pass it on. Answer? No. And people wonder why the econonmy in this country is shite? Link to post Share on other sites
