  1. what felt unlucky being sick or going to japan? the plane crashing now thats unlucky! or flying into godzilla!!!

    Well the plane got delayed in Brussels for over four hours and I was tempted by their yummy looking raw oyster bar...........what was I thinking, I flew into the 14th and was fine at the other end....was a strange way to start out in a new country.

    I have not seen godzilla yet, but am always wayching out for him.

  2. Has to be my Levi jeans,i`ve had them for ages but the more washed out and raggy they get,the better they look..

    What`s your happiest memory of childhood?

    Going to my grandmas near the terrier and eating sponge pudding with milk.

    When my cousin was visiting with me it was even better......would love to relive those days.

    What do you want to do before your times up and why?

  3. Funny this turned into a dicussion about prison.

    Here in japan lots of people smoke, i used to smoke but stopped over 3 years ago. In Japan prison is unreasonably strict, you can be put away for a couple of years just for drink driving.....and the prisons are torturous boot camps!

    I think smoking is gross but it is everyones right to do or not to do, the only way to stop it is to stop people starting it! You guys guys are lucky in the uk, the move to stop people has started, asia is way behind on that.....and insane numbers of people smoke here.

    In Japan prisons people are not permitted to talk to each other even when they are in the same room, and most personal belongings are removed, its screwed that people get games and tv in british prisons.

    I think somewhere between ultimate leniancy and boot camp would be good but each country is different.

  4. maybe i should have named the topic race hate !*!@#! cause it's all that happens round here! i asked a simple question and i get the CK and his motley crew jumping on the pc band wagon! i tell you i love chinese people tha crazy! did you watch that cooking in the danger zone? kung fu fast food place mental they greet every customer as they walk in.

    I was only following where the topic went Monsta.

    I hope you arent putting me in any crews, I was just shareing my experiences. :(

    In Japan all shops greet each customer with a full shop "irashimasen". I thoght it was strange at first but now have come to expect it. Even huge shops do it.

    When I come to England it freaks me out that no one is saying it.

    I remember going to Laus in the town too. Very yummy. :P

  5. My personal opinion is: i dont agree with food being called '!*!@# ', just as i dont like 'charlies shop' to be refered to as 'the !*!@#'s' although i do occasionally say that phrase myself.

    it is chinese food, and i can see offense taken by that other discription, however, i have never heard of english food described any other way other than 'english food', nor would i take offence at it. i mean, when i worked in london, and asked the local supermarket if they had any pease pudding, they looked at me funny, and i heared someone say 'thats geordie rubbish that, cant get it here', but i was a long way from being offended by it, more ammused than anything!

    so, while i understand offence is taken by these people at times, i do not understand why.

    it was just told to me, by someone i respected, that it was wrong to say such things so i try not to !

    Daft really !

    I see your point, its a little more simple when its coming at you in your native tongue though.

    And cockneys love to have a go, they do it alot in jest....many Japanese people do it because they feel uncomfortable.

    Wow sorry I am venting.

  6. I am spoilt because I get authentic Chinese food, lots of Japanese cuisine has its base in Chinese food. I went to China a couple of years ago and the Chinese really know how to eat.

    I dont like the word !*!@# either, racism is something you really dont understand till you are facing it. It sucks! I have had people call me a gaijin (alien, outsider) to my face and have listened to full on conversations about me on trains, in restaurants.......and though its easy to put it down to racism what it is in fact is fear of the unknown and lack of education.

    Call your food anything you like, but just imagine how a chinese person might feel. How would you feel?

  7. You dont need to swear to be understood. Kids might read this site. I think people should talk about whatever subject they want but an adult with common sense knows how to keep it clean. Monsta get rid of your antidisastablishment beliefs and get on having some fun. Hitting out at the mods is not fun. You got your own talking crap space and everyone has noted that its unfare for the mods to be click happy, move on, new subject please.

  8. This is real, I watched something on you tube ages ago. Its a skin disease like warts.....you are right it has to be filed back....its not meant to be painful.

    Has anyone seen about all the Americans that have bugs crawling out of thier skin in America? Gross!
