If I was interested in watching a film and some people said it was great and other people said it was boring I would value each comment equally.

When I hear negative comments about a certain subject, I tend to lose motivation to find out more about the subject. I expect (perhaps wrongly) that other people are influenced similarly.. hence I disapprove of negative comments. I somehow feel that they dont really contribute anything.

If I was interested in watching a film and some people said it was great and other people said it was boring I would not think much of both comments unless they would motivate their comments. :D

I'm sorry to say, Japan is nothing like the anime. In fact most of it is actually pretty damn dull and completely ordinary. People are not smarter, more creative, or more exciting here than any other country I've been to.

It started out like that but then when I saw pictures of the place it looked so wonderful!

How interesting that you enjoy reading posts that describe things as dull and boring, how did that fascination for boring and dull things come to life?

If people want actual experiences they should come out here and see Japan for themselves rather than worshipping it from what they see in the media (anime, Hard Gay, Iron Chef, etc).

Spend some time out here in REAL Japan and you'll realize it's life... no more and no less. We go to the supermarket, we get in traffic jams, we sit around on Friday nights wondering what the hell we're going to do. Instead of corn fields, it's rice paddies. Instead of football, it's baseball.

Instead of wishing they were in Japan because of the media they see, they wish they were in America because of the media they see.

I'm on Japan Forum because unlike most people on this site, I actually live here.

If you're "different" in America (or where ever you live), you're going to be "different" here.

Dude, I hope that you do not go to japan. I'm tired of seeing Japanese girls with latrinos.

ViolentAJ-
Look dude, you may think you're getting some sort of thrilling rise out of people with your racist comments but you're really not impressing anyone here.
We've all heard them before and you're not really accomplishing anything here.
I suggest you shuffle off to somewhere you can make friends and influence people.
