Holy shit does everyone in Japan fucking smoke?
You don't smoke?
What are you? An uncool faggot?
>2016 + 0
>smoking
13 years ago, yeah
>>67803689
And in 13 years the entire culture of smoking just died out and everybody quit?
there are lots of smokers here yes
it's not smoking that gives you cancer it's all your hamburgers
>>67803328
Japan has a huge smoking problem they're still trying to curb.
>>67803837
but they aren't cool anymore, just addicted from back when smoking used to be considered col
Is the film worth watching?
Reminder that the smoking trend was literally started by jewish propaganda, literally as in a jew named Bernays wrote a book called Propaganda
>>67803903
yes

If you're not a beta NEET who rejects all human emotion, it's one of the best little films I've ever seen in my life.
>>67803903
realer then real life
>>67803328
>she will never shit on my dick
The government owns shares in tobacco companies.
But these days smoking in public is getting banned and you have to go to little smoking parks.
But you can smoke in McDonalds and a lot of restaurants.

Holy shit does everyone in America sucks dick?
There is so much American porn its hard to tell the difference
>>67803738
yes
Japanese smoke more than the west yet they have less lung cancer. it's their diet that contributes to this
>>67803903
Its ultra-comfy movie from the early 2000s, so yes. You can try and imagine a world that was so much better than the shithole we have now.
>>67807694
Yeah, things used to be so much better. In fact, the further you go back in time, the better things were in general. Just think about the 40's, for instance
Everyone in Russia smokes
>>67807807
I'm not going to believe that statistic on mexico though. Or South America in general.
>>67803328
This movie is OBJECTIVELY Eternal sunshine on the spotless mind but 75% worse
ESOTM is better in every fucking aspect, this movie is a joke. None of the characters are believable. That's not how depression works. Why would a literally 10/10 girl hang around a creepy old man? Ever? Why are their whacky adventures devoid of any emotions?
Christ this movie is just "lmao japanese beauty" while trying to be sad. It's like vaporwave only shittier and 10 years early
>>67803903
I didn't like it much. I guess it depends on your mood
I used to live in Tokyo 5 years ago when my parents were expats there
>cigarettes are fucking cheap (like 300-400¥)
>you can smoke indoors
>there's no advertisement restrictions for tobacco companies
>you actually get cigarette brands that do all kinds of marketing shit to entice young 'hip' buyers, like bundling cigarette packs with plushies or otaku shit or whatever, I'm fucking serious
>japan tobacco is fucking huge
>smoking is still considered cool there (I remember a japanese cigarette brand whose mascot was a bodybuilder)
No wonder people smoke like chimneys there
I actually got hooked on tobacco there, being a gaijin and all no one bother asked for id, despite blatantly looking a like 15 y/o

how is living in Japan? Are the japanese as weird as they seem?
>>67809557
It was fine, kinda lived in the expat bubble though.
Japs are kinda wonky at times, I got stared at all the time on public transport and the street, you get used to it very quickly though.
My family and I went skiing in Sapporo once, and people were amazed at my dad's red hair. It was probably the first time they saw such a thing. They were probably country bumpkins though. It's a weird situation when black pimps and pushermen in Shibuya seem more normal to the public than a redhead.
Also, dogs are treated like fucking human children. Like, in pushers, clothes and shit. It's fucked up
>>67803328
Yes, they start from a very early age, that's why they're all manlets.
>>67809778
did you meet any weebs? did you have a jap gf? are japanese lads bros or too stiff?
>>67809778
That's because Japanese dogs are superior to most humans especially children.
>>67810419
They were some japs at the international school I attended. Half of them were bros, the other half were kinda autistic, over-achieving types.
I made a half-jap gf, she was a slut though
The biggest weebs were the expats themselves, especially in the european community. They're something about European expats, especially males, that reeks of weeaboo. I mean, that's why they ended up in Japan in the first place. The yanks didn't give two shits about intergeating culturally. The europeans, on the other hand..,
>>67810753
Other than that, the biggest concentration of weebs were found in Akihabara, but these were mostly tourists.
>>67810753
how easy is it to go to japan as a tourist? I want to experience all the local eaterys but will they look at me funny for being gaijin? And is everything in english like in Hong Kong?
>>67803328
"Lost In Translation" sucked and it didnt show how blonde White females are really treated in Japan.
<====================== This is the reality of the situation for white females in Nippon
>>67803328
You know what's more annoying than a smoker?
A non-smoker, because even when nobody smoking is around they're all too eager to bitch and complain about how bad it is and how uncool it is now.
Like this thread for instance.
>>67811548
Never went there as a tourist, so I wouldn't know. Not anymore complicated than other Asian countries I'd guess.
They wouldn't, you're just a gaijin appreciating Japanese cuisine to them. As long as you adapt your table manners to theirs, it's fine. Traditional japanese restaurants will require you to take your shoes off, so make sure you don't have holes in your socks.
And no, practically no one speaks English well
>>67811695
It's been too long since your last cigarette hasn't it
>>67811843
Eh, I ain't exactly counting.
>Smoking
It's like you want to kill yourself but don't have the balls to do it.

>>67811886
Smoking is enjoyable
>>67811886
Hang yourself, it's enjoyable.
>>67803738
No, everybody who smoked died out
>>67803328
Japanese smoke the way Americans used to smoke, yeah. They're somewhat behind the US when it comes to the anti-smoking push. Things have likely changed a bit since LiT was produced (I know there aren't smoking cars on the Shinkansen any longer), but they still light up like chimneys.

sauce?

General Patton disagrees
>>67811612
You can tell that she really respects Japanese traditions.
the biggest market for cigarettes in the world is in Asia
