@tokyo 14 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 What is it with some blokes and the constant shouting? There seems to be a lot of them here, not sure if it's just a 'manly' way to be or not... Just came back from a restaurant and a group of about 10 manly shouting men came and say at the table near us. Drinks and smokes and wild shouting and laughing at volume after almost every sentence. I can imagine it might have been fun if I was part of the group - but it sure wasn't for me! Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I think it's part of the little pecker syndrome.... Oh...wait a sec....I was doing a lot of ranting and shouting today.....from the elevated height of my bigger than need be truck.... .. :blush: Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I reckon they were just trying to win the bet. He who drives off the gaij. And then they all quieten down. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Oh I don't like the shouting either. Being loud doesn't make you funny, Unfunny Man! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I like shouting.....especially when angry Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Particularly found in izakaya's! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I dislike the loud fake laughing and over the top clapping that's exhibited by young salarymen particularly when in the presence of an obvious sempai of theirs, whilst in izakayas.....I may get angry and shout really loud, then Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Look, if it's your shout, @tokyo, don't welsh on it, make mine a double ouzou and soda! Ta very much! Link to post Share on other sites

Chriselle 158 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I prefer to yell. Just saying.. Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Surely you could just out shout them being the big noisy gaijin that you are. I suggest laughing as loud as you can while staring right at the biggest drunkest guy at the table and then when everything goes quiet tell them to shut up. Link to post Share on other sites

Alexander L 80 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 In a loud bar, you need to shout to be able to be heard above the din. It's an upward spiral. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Actually had this tonight.....2 tables, 1 by the door where we waited until there was a spare table and then when we got seated further inside the izakaya.....1st one was mostly pimple faced young guys trying to impress a couple of chicks with over the top laughing and clapping, the 2nd table was a shockingly dressed Yankee bird squeaking and shrieking her way to be noticed above her plainer dressed but hotter mates.....the guys they were with seemed to prefer the orange faced , flamboyantly dressed squak box over the more demure, attractive girl......either way both tables were inducing an intensive drive to dish out a few flying headbutts!!

Not fun when you're not in the gang. The answer is timing, Famiresu, or posh places. Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 can't do flying headbutts in posh places. Well, it's frowned upon anyway. Link to post Share on other sites

Alexander L 80 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 all relative. I find places without sawdust on the floor posh. Link to post Share on other sites
