The shelves aren't tall, the Japanese are just short.

Engrish abound! But yeah most of that shit is true. Japan=small, America=big . I remember seeing some Japanese people as a kid shitting themselves over the size of Cedar Point (amusement park) like it was as vast as outer space, which in reality is a small island.

:rofl:
Besides the "grayvy" line that WSB quoted, I also like the "Cornflakes is eaten in the morning and daytime eats sandwiches and potato chips."

Stereotypes abound!
Kinda like how most people on gaming forums will say all japanese like hentai and tentacle sex and live in tiny paper houses.

Thats really funny, some of it is true and other parts are not true, of course it varies by person.
As for the british version, we dont call it a pub, its called a bar! hehe

It was written like it's weird or somehow "bad" to do what we do.
You mean, the japanese don't have showers or eat fast food?
Oh, CheapyD, do they really eat scorpions and things of that nature over there in Japan? Excuse my ignorance.
What the.... concerning the american japanese students. How do they do so well in honors english?
Maybe they should take this new found ability to spell and construct a proper sentence home with them. They may be good at math! but damned if they can spell MATH......

About Japan. About the Ramen Noodles. Noodles is a commonly eaten dish in Japan. Do not eat it as side dish like American instead eat as whole meal. About bikes. Japanese do not ride car they ride bicycle. Bicycle is tiny and has no motor. About Godzilla. Godzilla is large lizard who sometime attack Japan. Mothra fight him same with King Kong.

agreed.
there needs to be an invasion of foreigners on japanese soil. I'd love for tons of americans to just suddenly live all over japan and just be themselves. See if stereotypes change...

"And it is called 'Diner' to Americans. Please do not forget to pay a tip, when you return home."
I don't know about everyone else, but I usually leave the tip at the diner...
Priceless view of American life.
