Japan: It's Not Funny Anymore

I hadn't seen this before, and it was a great read. The insight in the end was worth the length, too.

Here's a gem:

> If I was thirty years old, and I put on a suit, and I'm still wearing the suit at age seventy, and I still don't have a car, or a chauffeur to drive me home when I'm drunk, or at least money to pay for a taxi, man, I'm taking that fuckin' suit off.

Wow, I've never been, but Japan sounds like a miserable place based on this.

From 2010!!! I had the barest feeling that I read this before!
