I've returned once more to cause mass frustration and annoyance on the boards. And now I can even do it in Japanese!

Have fun, Rolach, have fun. I found particle stacking and politeness levels to be particularly brain-melting. :D

(Though to be honest, Japanese is a much easier language than English or, say, Spanish [which I learned in high school]... Most of the difficulty is in the vocabulary simply because it's so hugely alien.)

Hey, we have a pretty active Thief (DR) community over here in Japan.
Me!

I hold meetings for us (me) every week. Occasionally I'll sponser a stealing run. The other day I went out and got a bunch of boxes for the community. It was great!
Then we went out and got drunk and sang some karaoke.

P.S. I'm a very sad man.

Heh, when I was still in the navy, there was about 15 of us on base that played DR. We would roll out on friday nights if there wasn't a good Rave going on and head to Capcom Plaza and play DR for hours.

Speaking of Sushi Cupcakes, the ice cream shop in the mall here now has Wasabi ice cream. It'd go perfect together.

Welcome back, O Ruler of Cupcake-land.

Unfortunately we weren't speaking of sushi cupcakes. Nattou is a type of fermented (or rotten, if you prefer!) soybean. Smells terrible, looks disgusting, and tastes worse.

And it stretches! I tasted it once if for no other reason than to say I had at least tried it. Never again. My host parents would eat it sometimes with breakfast and it stunk quite badly.

Wasabi ice cream sounds...interesting. At the Baskin and Robbins I went to near my house, they had all the flavors in the United States plus some more Japanese flavors...green tea and azuki being the most tasty.

Natto is an evil evil thing. I haven't been able to try it however, as the smell forces me into dry heaving/vomit reflexes... Maybe I oughta try a clothes pin on the nose approach to try my first bite.
Having lived here for a year now, I feel like I should at least know what it tastes like.

Green Tea ice cream on the other hand is like crack. Without the harmful side effects.
Unless you are diabetic, then it's more like crack again.

Uh, to keep this kinda on topic...

Are there any other players who live in Japan? There are enough people around when I'm on that it makes me wonder. I know there are a lot of people who work odd hours... and I've run into a group of aussie players. I was just curious if there is anyone else in the Land of the Rising Sun about on these boards.

P.S. Natto smells like 100 year old sweaty socks x 10. Which is why it can make you gag. Well me anyway.

Real raamen is one of the tastiest things in existance. Granted, there are bad raamen restaurants and better raamen restaurants. One of my friends worked at one of the better varieties over in Akihabara, but I still didn't get any discounts.

Akihabara! Oh how I miss thee, Electronics city! I really want to go back to Japan. But now that I am out of the military I don't want to have to screw with the whole passport thing. Meh.

It's starting (?) to get dominated by the otaku, though. It's a little bit scary. Granted, any town which features a Mister Donut nearby to the train station is good in my book. (I guess that would be every town around the Yamanote loop line, though.)

As far as the radio show, I'm still waiting to hear back from the station concerning whether or not I got a slot. I'll let you know when I do.
