I am so addicted to this thread and couldn't resist starting a new one immediate after the last one got full. Enjoy!!
I had fried soba for lunch. This soba may only be served at the shop near my house.

Hello everyone! I look forward to this thread.

>>1 You bastard! Why did you make a shitty thread like this? Nothing's more cursing than a shitty thread like this! You deserve to die!
9 ：
>>1 I don't like this kind of thread, because it makes me vomit. Those inhabiting this are quite shitty as well. You should know better than to creat a better thread.
10 ：
>>1 Hey, why did you build this thread? To contain freaks and never let them go outside? You fail! They are free to go anywhere on the internet! Wherever they try to go, you can't stop them going! Idiot!
11 ：
>>1 is the masterpiece of the king of the shitty kings.

>>11 Well, please have a cup of coffee (~) γ´⌒｀ヽ {i:i:i:i:i:i:i:i:} （ ´･ω･） ∫ （:::::::::::::::つ c□
>>1 Hi, thank you baby for making this thread. TPP参加、表明持ち越し＝首相、11日記者会見 http://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20111110-00000108-jij-pol I do think Japan should not join TPP. Because TPP destories Japanese agriculture cruelly. And I think TPP is crazy treaty for JUST vindicating US incompetent President Obama's honor. So I suggest Japanes PM Noda "Loach" Yoshihiko shouldn't join the treaty and be a "hog" for US! Fortunately, he didn't indicate he joins TPP today. I hope he changes his mind. Say again, TPP is crazy treaty for JUST vindicating US incompetent President Obama's honor!

I'm not very familiar to this topic so I can't just say that Japan should join it or not. I'm not a farmer and I don't work for a big company, I'm just a colledge student. (ofcourse I know I'm supposed to be inetrrested in current events like this) Everytime when there's an argument like this, I get so confused... There are so many things I have to learn more.
16 ：
Me too. That issue about TPP is a little bit complicated to me. I guess that some people gain a profit and others don't.
17 ：
>>16 yeah that's what always happens and that's why we have to discuss
18 ：
I'm against TPP. A farmer said "We are farming not because of competition with U.S. and so on" If Japan join it, Japan will possibly win in some fields in quality. Even if so, I disagree with TPP. This problem isn't productivity but culture that our ancestor have built in village. The U.S. don't have deep history, so they tend to have shallow thoughts.
>>39 In my opinion, people who have never been abroad tend to look down on Japanese nationality..
43 ：
>>39 You know, different people have different opinions and values..
44 ：
>>40 Nope I study in the UK and my new tutor is Irish
45 ：
>>42 Returnees at my old school were trying hard to fit in Japanese society and often say something like Japan is the best in everything and they don't like wherever they lived before.
46 ：
Said* Anyways I think it's a good thing to have a pride in your own country and nationality unless it goes too far, too.
in reality, a number of foreigners have immigrated into the US and got US citizenship. They wanted more opportunities for education, career, and freedom etc. >>42 From my experience, those who have never been outside japan tend to be very happy in Japan. I myself lived in the US for 6 years. I prefer the US.
50 ：
>>49 Hahaha I've been in UK for 5 years and prefer here:P But still love Japan and sometimes feel like going back home. Japanese food is the best for me!!!
51 ：
>>49 I am >>39. I also have lived here almost as long as you have. Though I love Japan a lot, living there is another story. I prefer living here too, but every time I go home, I am deeply impressed with many things in Japan, food, literature, scenery, people etc.
52 ：
Don't come back to Japan. Japan is terrible.
53 ：
>>50 i don't know about the uk, but i agree on your opinion; japanese food is the best in the world!
54 ：
Short stay in Japan is good. You can enjoy food and difference from other countries. But, staying longer is not that good. When you are outside Japan, you feel Japan is good. But, food in Japan is no longer good...
55 ：
>>54 I love Japan beause I was born in this country. If you live in Japan, I want you to get out of here right away because you say bad things about my country. In addition, of course it's YOUR opinion not general opinion.
56 ：
Giving negative opinions is not a bad thing. People have different opinions. You should understand the difference.
>>55 i think many people exists hating their native country. how do you feel about them ?
59 ：
Well, you know what they say, "The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence."
60 ：
>>59 Those guys already lived in other countries for many years.
61 ：
55 is a typical Japanese, one that can't accept others' opinions that differ from herself and feel offensive.
62 ：
Yeah I know there are many like that
63 ：
im having breakfast its raining today.....
64 ：
>>58 That's none of my affair but their affairs. There certainly is chemistry even between an individual and his native country. I know any country has negative aspects, still if someone openly criticize my country, I won't forgive him. That is the way I love this country.
>>65>>70 Are both of you idiots? I said I was born in Japan and I love Japan.
73 ：
>>72 You said anyone saying negative things about japan should go out. That is the same way things are going in North Korea. Actually, >>54 said some good things about japan too, and yet you told him go out if he were living in japan.
74 ：
>>73 Good things? It's not good things but obviously bad things.
75 ：
Everyone!!!
76 ：
hey, ignore >>72 from North Korea >>72 is crazy stubborn
Good morning..It's so cold this morning! >>55 The other day, I met this Japanese guy living in UK who kept telling people UK sucks and how terrible life was there, and he told me that kind of stuff too, and I was like what the fuck then why don't you just get out of there and go wherever you want?? Somehow your post reminded me of him.. lol
79 ：
>>78 Relocating to other country is not easy, right? It's very hard to find a job especially if one doesn't have a work permit in that country. and again, I think that discussing someone's preferrence is not a point.
80 ：
>>78 what I wanted to say is that you should love your pace where you live once you have to live three NOT COMPLAIN !!
>>84 Forcing? Once you live in a place, it grows on you!
87 ：
I'm going to study hard today.
88 ：
It's cold and raining... I'm gonna study at a family restaurant near station. I will order drink bar :)
89 ：
Mostly students here? BTW I hope SUGANO join our fighters. And SUGIUCHI in softbank goes to giants after F.A. declaration.
90 ：
Every country has its own difficulties.UK society accommodates expats more easily. If you are an expat here, they simply behave like you don't exist. It feels lonely if you don't have attachments. Mostly UK-foreign attachments depend on how much you are willing to give up your idiosyncratic behaviour. In any way, you can lead a ghostly existence in any foreign country. Most of the Japanese friends in London do so. Most are single or divorced. Sabishi desu ne...
91 ：
Someone complains about Japan unless they get something good from Japan. To complain something creates good thing is ok. But thosewho only complain about Japan are not good.
92 ：
I like Japan and the UK both. Can't choose
93 ：
You don't have to when you are young. I guess when over 70, travelling becomes a problem even if you have the finances. You have to choose where to die.
94 ：
True. I can go anywhere because I'm young! I should think about where to live in 50 years hahaha
95 ：
I used to live in America for a few years and now I live in Japan but for me, Japan is the way better. It's just because I love Japanese food and the transportation system around Tokyo is so amazing and convenient! Where I used to live in Illinois was so rural I was so bored almost all the time. But people there were very kind. Ofcource I love both, though. I just prefer Japan.
96 ：
I lived in New Zealand for a year 15 years ago, when I thought that I had to know my roots and reality. I wondered, who am I?what am I?why was I born in Japan? I might think what is important wasn't related to my feeling of "whether I loveJapan or not? " Just I might think I had to understand my country, myself. Maybe something like responsibility. After studied abroad I was enrolled in the department of Japanese literature.
97 ：
>>96 Your long post prevent me from reading your response. I'm just joking.
98 ：
The US is the best in the world.
99 ：
If I say "I don't read your email if it has more than 3 lines." to our customer, what will happen?
