What better place to live than an overworked, single minded, financially doomed, brink of aging crisis, radiated, earthquake frequent, foreigner hating enemy of china and korea which is stuck on an island lacking energy output for the coming summer because all the nuclear plants have been shut down due to a disaster caused by a tsunami by none other than a country which coined the word because they will believe anything is safe if the government tells them so

Yeah, it's damn near impossible to get hired by a Japanese company. I find it amazing the kind of resistance you run into when they realize you're a gaijin... Interviews are especially funny. Often you'll get people that refuse to look at you during the interview, simply because you're not Japanese.

Japs can go fuck themselves.

Been in Japan for more than half a year already.
Not by choice and I really dont like it.
The only positive from this is I get to go to akiba, comiket and reitaisai.

Just look at reitaisai line at 12pm. I should have pay slightly more for the catalog if I knew it the line was gonna be this long.

I was in Japan as an exchange student and I loved.

It really gets me mad when people don't try to fit in or expect Japan to be just like a western country then when it doesn't fit their mental picture they hate it.

Japan has good and bad but is objectively better than America where drones are going to be sent up in the air to watch you 24/7

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

What if a gook tried to force his customs and ideals onto you while totally ignoring any faux pases they make while living at or near your home? Would YOU sit there and do nothing to keep your "nonconformist patriotic" lifestyle?

If you're ammurkan, implying that they already don't do that there
