if ignorance is bliss, then Japan must be the garden of Eden

[lukewevers]

Inspired by a friends rant.

Sometimes I get so angry at Japan and Japanese people. But then I get a wry smile on my face when I realise that Darwinian theory is sure to take care of them.

How can a country be so technologically advanced, and have the longest life expectancy of any country in the world, but be so blatantly ignorant. Not only of things

That was very interesting for me to read... guess I really don't know much about Japanese people. Never really had the chance to mingle with many of them (just a few back in my international school, but they all mostly stuck together from what i remember).

Hehe. Glad I inspired you! (Or am I? I found myself pretty worked up after writing what I did.)

I forgot to mention not wearing seat belts and letting toddlers lean on the dashboard during a drive!

I suppose when you have been here as long as us, you're entitled to a rant every now and then!

Anyway, sweetie, what're you plans for next summer? You're not recontracting, are you?

yeah i got pretty worked up at the beginning, but by the end i was almost laughing.

If we aren't entitled to rant then what are we entitled to do?

I'm off home next summer for a year or so and then I will be moving to england. most likely london.

what about you?
