Why we love Japan

[Korrito]

Could ya'll move this stuff over to the Jesus/Asahara Shoko vs. Alah thread?

It is hard to get hit by religious fundamentalists, ignostics and athiests all at the same time.

How do you manage to squeeze agnostics in between religious weirdos and atheist weirdos?

Oi, Fellas....Dont go hi-jacking this thread.
Enough about religion.
Back to the things we love about Japan.....

Beer vending machines

Beer vending machines

There aren't many of them left and the ones left don't vend interesting beers.

I love how there is a new beer almsot every month. I think this month there is a new suntory and asahi.

I must admit Broadband is pretty cheap and fast compared to the Uk and probably the US also.

New beer or recycled, rereleased happoshu?

[baka tono]

One of each I think.

Suntory has two "new" happoshus:

I'm pretty sure that Haru Uma is sold every spring, although I'm not really sure because I'm not interested in consuming tax-dodging foul swill.

Asahi has re-designed their Hon Nama piss-tinted beer substitutes, Draft and Blue:

Style Free, a carbohydrate-free abortion in a can, will be on sale next month:

I don't see any reasons to love Japan here.

I went out and bought some of the new asahi happoshu last night.
The asahi DRAFT honnama.

It was ok as far ask happoshu goes, but really similar to their red one.

Anyway, much rathe have a super dry.

I love the quality of beerlager available in Japan, however, the heavy/dark beers are mostly appalling.

I love the fact that when you go to to the doctors/Hospital, dentist, they give you about 20 different kinda drugs that all do the same bloody thing.....At least its pretty cheap.

The convenient availability of so many excellent treatment centers for those of us inflicted with advanced cases of YBF!

[Oradea]

I gotta say, The whole Hanami experience has to get a huge thumbs up in my book. 10 points to Japan.

The first pill is to treat whatever illness you have. The other nineteen pills are to relieve the stomach irritation resulting from taking the first pill.
