See, we were being nice.

I hate it when people joke about the atom bomb. It's rather callous, to say the least.

It kills off creativity and doesn't make you think for yourself.

Tell me about it.

Because people forgive things after 66 years.

They haven't forgave the Russians yet.

I just had to say it.
Of course, I was kidding about my joke.

That's because Russia wasn't the one who rebuilt Japan after the war.

But that is part of the culture. A high drive for education and lack of integrating of foreigners.

An unhealthy drive for education, and not just lack of integrating foreigners, but also everyone that's just different and doesn't go with social norms.

Let's not forget about the huge bullying problem Korea has, and how often people in mass groups tell others to kill themselves.

I live there and I've never heard of it. >_______>

I think its when farmers basically pay women from places like Vietnam to marry them

Oh, that. I thought it was like for people to buy Korean brides.

Well, we'll see about that. I think Japan will be more than happy to make deals with the Russians within the next few years if the right people stay in power.

I meant in relation to Japan, if I have geography right.
But the world is spherical, so that works too.

Rent a Friend? More like Rent-A-Hirohito.

Really, I bet they only pay them around 1 won per YEAR.

I know..... it's horrible.

I mean, they don't even care about what's right half the time, they just want you to memorize the textbook. :/

Well, I'm lucky, since I managed to escape to the British educational system.

Which one are you stuck in?

Of course, the textbooks and test would probably have the same wrong answers.

I think South Korea recently passed Japan in suicides per capita.
