How many flavors of kit kats have you sampled? I'm interested in orange

the matcha was not very oishi to me. Like white chocolate with a subtle dirt flavor

Today I found the one thing Japan is bad at: Mexican Food.

Also I found a crewneck KSTATE sweatshirt in a luxury hipster thrift shop.

Are you super awesome with chopsticks yet? Also, I have heard that real wasabi is something you usually don't get outside of japan. Have you tried it, and is it noticeably different?

Getting pretty good. My problem is slurping noodles, I just can't do it. It's s mental block from the fear that a noodle will get inhaled deep into my lung.

Some do! This was a house squeezed in a commercial area, the doorstep was on the sidewalk and 3ft from the street

When you see Jim, tell him if he wants his letter jacket back, it's gonna cost him 12800 yen.

Sweatshirt seems pricy

Gooch · « **Reply #137 on:** December 30, 2015, 08:23:55 PM »

$29.06 for that sweatshirt? You got ripped off.

puniraptor · « **Reply #138 on:** December 30, 2015, 08:50:01 PM »

It was pricey. This was a luxury hipster thrift store in an upscale mall. I didn't buy it because I didn't want to prevent a J'ipster from rocking it at the disco.

Holy crap, I just tried Yuzo-Kosho (spicy citrus paste) and it is amazing. You could 'Ack your face off with this stuff.

No, I have to get my zeros from the 7-11 ATM. <- always the best exchange rate (pro-#ack)

michigancat · « **Reply #146 on:** January 01, 2016, 06:18:54 PM »

That's a great hack, puni. I always get cash at convenience store atm's in Asia
