That does ring a bell. I remember the Eigo Only crowd wetting their pants over Furry Bank Card friendly ATMs with rather well done English guidance available. Most of them had only been in Japan for 11 years by then, so it was easy to understand their point. At any rate, all good info when travelling amongst the 20dumbthings: that Weebotard existential despair attack is fine for about 3 minutes, but then they start pooping their diapers and things get stinky quickly.

OMG and LOLzzzzzzzz, like, totally randumb!!!!!!!!! . In Kyoto it was the ???? Department on Shijo, but I think it was the 7th Floor too. Then the Main Kyoto PO got one too, and that was only another 35 minutes away in a part of town I never frequented. Many is convenience because of advanced Japanese technology and hospitality. I can't remember when all or almost all PO ATMs went 1989 (in CDN), but I think it was after the real millenium. I do feel for the weebos. Nobody should have their stupidity ripped from them so needlessly.
