Well, I'm convinced!
Well, subject to reason 3 (and most likely reason 9 as well), I will not waste my time by sending you a sucking up email asking you to post a link to my blog.
Rather, at the risk of eliciting a reason 5 level response, I will just follow your lead on reason 1, risk my own reason 6 moment, and hope that the fact that I'm not Japanese will help me re reason 7... And in doing so, will suggest that your reading list to the left would look much more complete if it included guyjin...
some of the comment makers are strange as well.particularly the schizophrenic doctor.
who are you calling mad?
I'm a doctor.
and I'm your brother.you should show a little more respect for momma.
you're an only child,you are mad,listen ot the other side of your brain.
time for some medicinal fiscal stimulus methinks.
Indeed! This should be the top ten principles for a proper blog!
Doc, you feeling all right? Do you have a quota of comments to make? Is it near the end of the quarter already?
Guyjin, that kind of blatant self-promotion would work, but too many numbers for Our Man's brain. Will get a calculator and get back to you.
Kara - thank you, finally someone is taking note of what Our Man says.
JJ - you've missed the point yet again. Didn't you see the big NOT in the headline?
By "tossers who grace these posts", do you mean the subjects you write about, or the people who comment? Or both? Your public demands to be told. Also more pictures of funny English signs, drunk salarymen sleeping on trains, and of course the low-down on any special edition Kit Kats available only in the Abiko area.
Shit, I wondered why the hell I waste my time reading this blog. Well at least now I know.
shouldn't that read "top ten reason to read this blog"?
