Coco Ichi is gross.

So to answer your question, the thing that bothers me when those sorts of things pop up is that it makes me regret the work I've put toward being fluent in Japanese and living in Japan. It's like, after all I've accomplished, this is the kind of bullshit it comes down to.

Good post. This is exactly why I got out, I found it really disheartening.

I've used Japan wireless twice before, so I can vouch for them being legit.

Nagoya has either the largest, or one of the largest, planetariums in the world if that's up your alley.

The planetarium is dope, I highly recommend it.

You guys laugh but the "famous" udon places don't have much seating so you have to take your styrofoam bowl of udon and sit on the curb. I always laugh at busloads full of tourists lined up sitting on the curb like homeless people eating udon.

It is our meibutsu, please respect our culture, tyvm.

I'm dumb. I keep on getting trolled by everyone in this thread.

I hear that's a defining trait of people who really like Osaka.

I guess I'll add some content. Here's my Japanese wedding report. I finally had my wedding ceremony here in Japan last weekend. I wore some cool Japanese haori hakama for part of it and then changed into a white tux. My wife's friends dressed up like cheerleaders halfway through and danced to a song to really drive home the fact we are in Japan. We also mixed the ceremony with my son's okuizome, and we mocked feeding him while everyone screamed KAWAIIIIII. I ended up at some izakaya with my friends from USA and England and some of my wife's friends and we had a mock sumo fight in front of a famous sumo wrestler statue at like 1am.

More like okama, :laffo:

Nah, sounds cool. Grats dude!

I'm in Kyoto for the weekend, is there a bar/nightlife district or is it all spread out?

Kiyamachi has a pretty decent concentration of nightlife. It's only a short walk from Shijo/Karasuma station.

I'm going to go home for a while and won't renew my spouse visa I think (it expires in July), but I plan to come back in a few years with another spouse visa. Should I tell the government that I'm moving out? Should I just stop paying health insurance? Or can I just go home and let the visa expire?

There's a whole webpage with information about this

... but it's loving unreadable. It seems to threaten you with fines if you don't return your residence card, but does that really happen?

You're such a cheap prick lmao

It's a pain in the dick going places during golden week because it's going to be busy as hell relatively. But given that people are actually pretty decent about queuing like adults, really the only downside is there being a general crowd around at all times which doesn't actually impact poo poo much. Hotel prices might spike a bit but if you're booking far enough in advance that shouldn't affect your ability to get something decent either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is basically the same as the rest of the world, only difference is in Japan you set your repayment schedule at time of purchase (and can change it later if needed). For the rest of the world you set your repayment schedule to whatever you want, whenever you want, provided you pay the minimum.

What do you think the difference is between dating someone local to you as opposed to someone from glorious nippon (obviously not including the language and cultural barriers)?
