I dare you to go up to a cop and say "I was robbed by two men" while using the aerobics moves in the video. |

This is a very important lesson. The world outside of Japan is scary and dangerous. Always stick to safe zones like Guam and Hawaii, but you must still be cautious. Be sure to talk about how much you missed bland Japanese food after your incredible 2 days & 3 nights spent at a resort hotel. On food in the States - the only thing bad about it is that you get used to it. |

IMO, all ethnic food tastes better in America -- except for Italian cuisine in Italy. Even McDonalds taste better outside USA. Go ask anyone that's been anywhere. Chinese food in the US is especially bad. But like nanbanjin said, it's sad because you get used to it and actually want bad greasy, salty chinese food sometimes. Oh Nanbanjin, i tried to send you a PM a while ago, but it said your box was full so i couldn't. I'll let you know when our practices start again. |

i seriously hope you are joking. I've been to supermarkets in USA, Europe, and the Middle East and it seemed to me that we Americans have a consistantly wider variety of ingredients available to us year round. But then again, it wasn't something I was actively curious about while traveling, so I might have missed something. In India, 90+% of my culinary experiences were in very cheap places like 2nd class railway cars or austere ashrams, so of course, the corresponding ethnic restaurants here in the US would be more palatable. So yeah, I know I should probably go on some more "normal" trips abroad before making sweeping culinary statements. |

Just had lunch with a Japanese girl from work. The conversation covered such interesting topics as how the food in the states is no good and how American and all non-Japanese people are stupid etc, etc ad infinitum. Is there some runaway production line in Japan pumping out girls with no circuitry between their brains and mouths? p.s. go downtown to china town (before they turn it into condos) and poke around for a good restaurant. Best if you can find a Chinese person to take you. |

The thing I hate about Chinese restaurants here is that the staff refuse to give me chopsticks or take my order if I order anything that isn't "American Chinese", even after having the same argument at the same restaurant five times. |
