1- I can't wait to play with my new console! I'll buy some games from the online store!

2- Ah. No store for my country. Well, I'll buy it from the US store

3- ARGH! They only accept US credit card! My only alternative is to buy a prepaid card.

4- What?? They cost twice their real price!? They're crazy! Screw it, I'll buy the boxed game.

5- I don't understand why sales aren't taking off! --- It's piracy's fault!!

JUST TAKE MY DAMNED MONEY!


This is our reality

Most of the people in charge of the movie, music and gaming (to a marginally smaller extent) industry are ****ing dinosaurs who are completely disconnected from their audience and most likely don't even have access to or know how to use many of the services they are trying to provide.

I like the Japanese touch of it. In a Western show they would just have the retard do stupid things on camera and laugh at that, but in Japan they need to have a room full of strangers getting a spanking each time the retard makes a mistake.

Beats American Idol.

Japanese TV shows are great. Some are very weird... but usually they are great. :P

Shame we can't have more television like Japanese slapstick comedy here in the USA; Our population can't handle anything without filing lawsuits because someone looked at them funny or they got offended by something. All we get is cruddy drama and reality T.V shows. Thank god Jersey Shore is on its last season from what I last heard.

No kidding. Japanese and British TV wouldn't last a season in North America. Plus the people would get their *** sued to no end.

"My dad hid a camera to find out why the cats kept sneaking into my old bedroom after I'd left for college..."

"Archbishop Konrad von Hochstaden implemented a tax on hops, indirectly taxing beer, making him very unpopular among the people of Cologne. There is a statue of him on the city hall of Cologne and the stone he is standing on is carved a man showing his butt"

I learned something today.

Well showing his butt isn't all that special but he's also sucking his own cock.

True, but I wouldn't want people to make a statue showing my capability.

Depending on where you work, this could be NSFW. :/ Jesus, Rattler! Spoiler that!


Although the dogs are funny.
