this is guaranteed to make you laugh and probably offend as well, but if you do find it offensive and want it removed - just ask and I'll have it removed.

Are you indirectly saying that Japanese speak poor English?

hah, "come on my house"

anyways, the Korean alphabet doesn't have certain characters like 'L' so that's why they have trouble sounding it out therefore using 'R' sound which sounds the closest to it. I believe this is the same for Japanese?

btw, I love japanese candy and I love that white water type of drinks.

Mmmm... Pocari Sweat!!

Hey, what happened to that drink called "orbit", with the little gelatin balls suspended in mid-drink? Were those little balls cancerous or something? I can't find it anywhere anymore...

Also, what's that one clear carbonated Japanese drink with the little glass marble that you need to push in before you drink it? That bottle is an engineering MASTERPIECE!

That stuff is bloody awful. No wonder they called it piss.

And on that note, what kind of animal is a Pocari? I always envision a big hairy elephant like thing running on a treadmill with people squeezing the sweat out of its fur and bottling it
