I always love when Trump clarifies later that he meant exactly what he said. He meant that horrible/dumb thing 100% literally.

I have seen Trumpers claim that they like Trump because they "don't need a thesaurus to understand what he's saying" or "he talks like me/us/the working class, therefore he understands us/the working class!" or "he uses plain speach, I love plain speach!" *sic*

How did he say it?

That's disrespectful to 6 year olds

This update fucking sucks. It added nothing of significant value, breaks everything, delayed London indefinitely, and they advertised it as a "major update"

More blood on Todd's hands.

Yeah... Yevon itself is the main antagonist, keeping the spiral of death going. Seymour's a dick, for sure, but he's more of a plot device to get our characters in the headspace they need to be in to accept reality and rebel against the institution.

Yevon

It caused all the problems with Seymour, Jecht, and everyone else. They caused the rift between people and Al Bhed. They actively encouraged the sacrifice of summoners. They kept unsent people around for political reasons, endangering everyone. They actively knew what Sin was, and yet didnt tell anyone, so they could continue livin it up.

Seymour.

He was really the only one actively seeking to destroy and kill.

We lost Rikku that day.

Banking apps should have limits just like atms do for transferring money in large amounts.

Superstar athlete being an ass or premadonna happens all the time

No, Im not. You keep accusing everyone of being one person

Ok.

Her videos where she talks about culture and norms in Japan. Things like vending machines, shops, stuff like that. She is showing off the very weird entertainment areas of Japan, and doing the Japan is so weird thing.

Those who live there know these things are generalizations and arent true. She does it for clickbait obviously, but it misrepresents our home, which I don t appreciate. As far as her home life and school stories go, I dont really care and thats a private place. She has cute private life stories and the. Japan is like this ones, which we are saying are not representative of the real life here.

Can I prove it is false? No. I can give you other stories and experiences that say otherwise, but whether you believe us, or believe her, is up to you. But you have multiple people here saying it misrepresents Japan. We know it isnt real because we have experienced it and know what it is like.

This wasnt a personal attack on you and im sorry if it came off that way. You know, living here and people asking us if Japan is like those youtube clips, and actually living here. Its like if people asked you about the dumbest stereotype about tour country, and ran with it, and told other people that your country is that way.

I hope this clears things up. This isnt about you, or specifically this girl. It is about the way our home is represented through social media.

He thinks everyone ITT is Cait. I cant tell if hes just trolling or thick.

Some of us live here and get sick of people like you who post social media as if it's some kind of definitive source.

Depends on where you live and what you look like, really. Certain. Types are favored above other foreigners.

Ive definitely been the center of attention though. Got compared to celebrities I look nothing like, asked if I knew famous people, asked about guns, etc.

One of the nicer experiences was when I lived in a small town. It was right before Golden Week, and this old man was just standing around outside the supermarket. He stops me, asks to talk, asks some pretty mundane questions (in English, mind you, which is super rare, especially for his age), thanked me, and walked off. It was nice and genuine.

Sometimes I actually feel uncomfortable sticking out here, cause people do treat you differently, and sometimes even put huge expectations on you to be good foreign.

One bad example was this woman who kept comparing me to other foreigners. I was the good one and all the others were bad. I told her that this type of thinking hurts me too, and keeps me from major purchases, renting things, and other normal things which Japanese never have to worry about. She said it is fair, because those things need to be that way thanks to bad foreigners. It was bizarre and felt gross. Kind of like an old racist grandpa who has that one black friend.

I hate how people who have never been to Japan and think they're experts from fucking YouTube videos and/or Reddit posts constantly tell the people who live here what it's really like. Man I should just post random made up shit about the UK and be like nah bro I watched a YouTube vid, I'm an expert.

Well, this topic took a hard turn >_>

and started lashing out demanding proof, and then talking about her lunch.

but i appreciate where i live and want people to see what it is really like.

Because you came out questioning my integrity, and

Whats wrong with you? Do you actually live there?

Since you must know, I had her job years ago. Shes playing influencer. You might be a fan, so I wont reply to you anymore.

This brings up a good point. My company has time and again said phones aren't allowed to be recording in schools. Even my schools, principles and vice principles have reiterated this specifically for student safety and privacy.

So how is she allowed to be recording within school walls? >_>

This person often makes stuff up and misrepresents Japan a lot. I recommend you stay away from her. Although she did show me how to use the 7-11 smoothie machine

He literally put a shifty eye emoji in the topic title the whole thing just seemed off.

Only thing that somewhat sucked were the tiny hotel rooms/baths and that public transport wasn't as... clear for tourists as we hoped it would be (and also pretty expensive compared to what we are familiar with).

But we didn't go to japan to stay in some hotel room or bus anyways.

The part where you gave no context and just claimed a bunch of children in a foreign country were super welcoming to you. Prolly should have mentioned that it was in a class setting or that you teach.

I think I remember seeing that, but I need to refresh my memory.

hopefully there will be no casualties...

Bonus points: You can't say Kratos

In retrospect Maximus was a bit weird. He oscillates between competent rookie with a chip on his shoulder to helpless dumbass every other scene. Thought he was gonna pick up after he had that moment with the raiders trying to take his power armor, but he just kept being meh. >_>

I don't hate him, but he's easily the weakest of the three so far, which is a shame because I think the actor does a decent enough job with what he's given.
