Tex 3 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Oh OK I see now, it is all so clear (clear as yellow snow), you all want 'some' foreigners but just 'not many'. I guess Seemore will say he wasn't saying that as well Totally confused... I wasn;t trying to put words into peoples mouths it really just occured as what I thought people meant... to me that is what you were saying, you would rather not be around foreigners while at ski resorts in Japan. But frankly this now seems more like damage control for lack of specificity rather than anything else, did I confront it on the wrong level? meh! Here I was then hoping to indulge in some reasonable conversation about the pros and cons of the domestic vs international market but end up debating what the debate is really about. Too cerebral perhaps, my apologies. Let's just all go back deciding who we would like to play us in a movie... far less controversial. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 You're the one twisting it round into something that it isn't and implying things that aren't being implied, Tex. No-one else. Link to post Share on other sites

SKI 15 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 No, didn't think you were judging anyone. You simply said that other people were implying things that they weren't. Link to post Share on other sites

Jynxx 4 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 What are you all bitching about!? It all started with PWL bitching (making a comment - disappointed) about being a tourist (which she is) because there are gaijins around her. I call it a common tourist complex. Don´t wanna have too many of your kind around when you go somewhere. I´m sure if she were surrounded by Hongkong-ite she wouldn´t have a clue. tit for tat, really ... the rest of you Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I must say I am glad that The Wise Jynxx has jumped in and given the episode a good appraisal and a clean conclusion. Hurray!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Tex 3 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 NO that is the wrong implication Jynxx (apparently) PS I was never bitching, just conversing... I do bastard better than bitch Link to post Share on other sites
iiyamadude 6 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Just love this. Jynxx - doesn't live in Japan, no real evidence that he has ever even been to Japan. Though he seems to keep on claiming that he has, perhaps in the 1960's or something. Tex. Has visited Niseko. Experts on the whole thing with tons and tons of experience of what the scene is really like here. Link to post Share on other sites
Jynxx 4 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 The only evedence one gets (shows) on this forum personally is your Character Reference. Yours iiyama .... say no more Link to post Share on other sites
Tex 3 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 But Jynxx is right... and it isn't unique to Japan. I established (admitted) long ago I wasn't an expert on Japan and never professed to be one. On the contrary. I don't know why people got upset. Tourist complex... far too succinct, Jynxx and better to call it a syndrome Link to post Share on other sites

PWL 0 Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 Originally Posted By: Jynxx I call it a common tourist complex. Don´t wanna have too many of your kind around when you go somewhere. Hmmmm, er, no, no 'complex', nothing so deep! Just a bit of disappointment, that's all. Is that not allowed? Originally Posted By: Jynxx I'm sure if she were surrounded by Hongkong-ite she wouldn´t have a clue. Well I would actually have a clue, not that it really matters. It's funny, the atmosphere of this thread is like the one in the bar the other night in Hakuba. Haha. I quickly got out of that too. Link to post Share on other sites
