It’s getting old, folks…

I am at the station decompressing from a trip to IKEA. It’s not the lines, it’s the complete lack of consideration for others combined with arm-in-arm walking through slooooowly. 

Ok…fine. But dammit do we have to add in the cell-phone-slow-walkers?!?

I will say….I have found a way to get the to move or pay attention (if they are the cause of congestion)….just blow a puff of air on their head. Just a sigh worth. Just enough for them to know they are in the way and to pay attention.

Don’t be a fucking creepster tho. Do NOT:

  • Blow hard on them like you are blowing out a candle. These are people…no matter how annoying they may be
  • Don’t do this if there is a clear way around. If it’s just you and them….. don’t try to teach them a lesson, that just makes you a raging douchebag.

I walked over to shinjuku 三丁目to get a couple art things. I found a store that sold some foreign stuff much cheaper than the nisshin place (but not the right cheese). 

I found this delicious looking drink:


Totally innocent enough until you see it from the top:


You can’t fool me you sneaky bastards. 

Holding a Table

Holding a Table

In Japan, it is quite common to leave stuff at a table and it won’t likely get stolen.

Of course, there are thieves in Japan like anywhere else….but it’s less likely to have stuff stolen.

Also, people are nosy creatures so they will look at what is there, so I like to include a little English lesson. This is me giving back to the world…
