Welcome to the YMIJ Forum!

This is place to read about all of CheapyD's adventures in Japan.
Feel free to post here with any comments or suggestions.

You may not create topics in this form, but you may post replies.


FAQ (in progress)
Q: Why did you move to Tokyo?
A: Mrs. CheapyD (she is Japanese) got a great job here working doing legal work for a big insurance company. It was an offer we couldn't refuse.

Q: How did you meet Mrs. CheapyD?
A: We met in a nightclub (Twilo) in Manhattan. There is a long story behind us getting together, too long for this space.

Q: Do you speak Japanese?
A: No, not really. I know a little as I took some classes in NYC, but I am going to take more classes here.

Q: Do most Japanese speak/understand English?
A: Hardly. Although Japanese take compulsory English classes starting in Jr. High (I think), it seems that most do not understand very much English at all.

Didn't know the Mrs. was Japanese. Can you say where she works? (if it hasnt already been posted)

Pretty cool. I'll be watching this forum for your latest adventures.

What would be really cool is if you had a digital camcorder and you documented your adventures. Then, you (or someone else, if you aren't skilled with video or just don't want to be hassled) could edit together some sort of documentary (or documentaries). Then, we could make a CheapyD in Japan DVD.

I think Cheapy has finally gotten full of himself. This'll be an interesting forum to keep an eye on.

I'm enjoying the threads thus far. Keep it up.

This will quickly become the best forum here.

Your Ma, Ninja Pan!

I love reading it so far, and the pictures are hilarious.

I hope no one tries to kancho you while you are there.

Please write about the Japanese Porn that is over there. Not hentai, just the porn with humans. Only humans.

Have yoy ran into any Americans since you moved there?

I like this forum. It's pretty interesting to see some of the crazy things you see in Japan. Keep the pics comin'!

In Japanese cultural it's shameful to show pubes. So it's blurred out in porn.

This is super sweet, those that are stuck in the land of absolutly horrendous customer service appreciate it greatly! I cant wait to read more.

Ya I'm wondering if 1) You speak Japanese?(How much if applicable) and 2) Does nearly everyone speak english like I imagine?

One request: try your hardest to get into J-rock and J-pop at least a little? Please? I study music and enjoy it quite a bit, and there are some truly terrific artists in Japan, that truly are every meaning of the word artist. And even the bubblegum stuff is better in Japan than it is here..so please? I'm so jealous you get to live where there's J-music available everywhere..so please..just like I know you are immersing yourself in every beautiful nature of Japan, please give the J-music a chance? Not telling you to stop liking Western music, just let it speak to your heart.
