That guy is about to get mind fucked by that drill....

[–]Dubwizer 2 points3 points ago

I think it's China.

You might be right. But whenever I see an Asian guy with frosted hair I always assume Japan.

[–]retrospects 1 point2 points ago

He really wants to remember what that guy is saying.

I want someone to genuinely answer this question: Why is Japan like this? Why do they do the things they do?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Honestly, I think that it originally started off as imitation. Get atom-bombed and suddenly you start to question your national identity. So they looked to their "Conqueror" and tried to imitate the culture they saw when they looked at us. Which, when you come to think of it, is a pretty damning assessment of our culture, or at least the way our culture appears to others.

[–]TheDoctorAndTardis 0 points1 point ago

That is a very well thought out answer. And it really does make sense. But after all these years, haven't they figured out America is not how they see it? Have they gone so far off the deep end their imitation has become their national identity?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Maybe. I'll admit that my previous answer has the downside of being a little chauvinistically patriotic. It's not like we're such hot shit as a country or a culture, but we did kick some WWII ass, so to speak. That being said, there may be an element of one-up-man-ship going on as well. So, if the guy who kicked your ass eats a piece of glass you'll prove your own toughness by eating an entire bottle with syrup poured on top of it. Or something like it. But this is all just dime-store psychology at its worst so I'm probably full of shit.

Hell, I never took pschology. What do I know? I just guess Japan has it's own reasons for being the way it is and we should leave it at that. Agreed?
