This is a great read, and sure to keep you occupied if you're bored at work and need a laugh...

It's a journal of editorials written by an American teaching in Japan. I dated a guy who taught English in China for a while, and he has a lot of similar stories.

OMG that is too funny and so true from what my friend who visits Japan and China tells me!
Why give flowers to anyone? They wilt, they die the dry out.

A friend of mine showed me this journal earlier, and I am very disturbed something like Kancho exists. :shock:

What's more disturbing about Kancho is that... they attempt so hard at it. It's like a national sport, geeez!

KANCHO TIME!

I've been reading that website on and off for a couple months. Hilarous stuff, and further proof to me that the whole "japanophile" thing some people have going on is very, very, VERY creepy.
