It was the man who died. The cause of death is still being investigated, but he was 89 years old.

    Okay I got one what if you isekai back into "this" universe but as like, the golf driving range ball return kart robot and your fate is to truck-kun people who try to steal range balls into the next life for whatever god. Good, evil, that's up for you to decide in chapter 38, oh tittywhistles, those shits stole my fuck

    FYI this was last week, the cherry blossoms are basically gone now, 2 weeks earlier than last year. Here's a pic from 2 weeks ago.

    Still, I didn’t have it as bad as one 41-year-old woman living in Fukuoka City. Late in the afternoon of Saturday December 2, the woman (whose name has been withheld) contacted the police after the man who lived in the unit above her suddenly smashed through his floor/her ceiling and hurled a large piece of wood into her living space.

    Sweet jebus. I've heard that the walls in those apartment are rather thin. Still, this (and the other stories on here) is pretty unhinged.

    slightly off topic, but have you noticed how some of the Japanese entertainment that makes its way internationally has a certain element of What The Fuck? It seems to me like a Lack of Inhibition, which in my culture very often tends to be a response to living in overly restrictive environments. In my experience there's a real strong correlation. So is what I see in the entertainment (the general What The Fuck) a yearning for less restriction, less inhibition? Is it a cultural response to previously living under strict authoritarian rule? I don't know. It's just what I see in some art I enjoy, and then we see some FloridaMan type crimes like Dude Emerges From Ceiling And Throws Log and we Really Wonder.

    I think I know what you're talking about. Personally, I've always chalked it up to Japanese media as an outlet for people that have to live in a restrictive culture. I think every culture does this to a degree: fantasies are sold for the consumer to live vicariously. Everyone just has different unmet psychological needs, where trends vary culturally. IMO, American media is just as fucked up in completely different ways.

    Sometimes it's mental illness, other times it's when all the manga and video games just aren't enough.

    So like, one day we found this Korean channel over broadcast (I love the sf bay area) and this program was all about this lady finding this horrid green with sprinkles and warts and probably a super fund grant poop was on a plate on her kitchen table. Like, it was really diseased like someone who has a very damaged gastrointestinal tract and eats a lot of candy with a lot of neon food dye got really backed up then shat out a bear that then shat out this shit. And she really wanted to know which of her friends or neighbors or landlords maybe left the shit. I couldn't really follow all the people but I could follow the shit panic.

    Anyways, it was one of the realest things I've ever watched and the turd looked hilarious and to this day I have no idea what it was. I promise 5 hatsune miku forehead kisses redeemable whenever the fuck you can get hatsune miku to redeem forehead kiss coupons issued by someone else to whoever can figure out what the fuck I watched

    Cherry blossoms are symbolic of a short life, but he was 89, so it doesn't poetically apply here.

    You say "/s" but, for anyone else reading, Japan is considered rabies free so that would certainly be a big deal we're it the case.

    I don't think there's much of a mystery he was 89 years old and he was sort of dude to go around biting people

    I really expected that to go the other way. A bite from an unkempt mouth on an older person just sounds like a great way to get sepsis.

    It was the man who died.

    You wouldn't have to clarify that if you simply didn't follow the inane newspaper headline style that should be dead in the age of the web.

    I think there may have been a trend of using cyanide or something like that as make-up powder for its unusual whitening properties.
