Still, I didn’t have it as bad as one 41-year-old woman living in Fukuoka City. Late in the afternoon of Saturday December 2, the woman (whose name has been withheld) contacted the police after the man who lived in the unit above her suddenly smashed through his floor/her ceiling and hurled a large piece of wood into her living space.
Sweet jebus. I’ve heard that the walls in those apartment are rather thin. Still, this (and the other stories on here) is pretty unhinged.
slightly off topic, but have you noticed how some of the Japanese entertainment that makes its way internationally has a certain element of What The Fuck? It seems to me like a Lack of Inhibition, which in my culture very often tends to be a response to living in overly restrictive environments. In my experience there’s a real strong correlation. So is what I see in the entertainment (the general What The Fuck) a yearning for less restriction, less inhibition? Is it a cultural response to previously living under strict authoritarian rule? I don’t know. It’s just what I see in some art I enjoy, and then we see some FloridaMan type crimes like Dude Emerges From Ceiling And Throws Log and we Really Wonder.
I think I know what you’re talking about. Personally, I’ve always chalked it up to Japanese media as an outlet for people that have to live in a restrictive culture. I think every culture does this to a degree: fantasies are sold for the consumer to live vicariously. Everyone just has different unmet psychological needs, where trends vary culturally. IMO, American media is just as fucked up in completely different ways.

Sometimes it’s mental illness, other times it’s when all the manga and video games just aren’t enough.
So like, one day we found this Korean channel over broadcast (I love the sf bay area) and this program was all about this lady finding this horrid green with sprinkles and warts and probably a super fund grant poop was on a plate on her kitchen table. Like, it was really diseased like someone who has a very damaged gastrointestinal tract and eats a lot of candy with a lot of neon food dye got really backed up then shat out a bear that then shat out this shit. And she really wanted to know which of her friends or neighbors or landlords maybe left the shit. I couldn’t really follow all the people but I could follow the shit panic.
Anyways, it was one of the realest things I’ve ever watched and the turd looked hilarious and to this day I have no idea what it was. I promise 5 hatsune miku forehead kisses redeemable whenever the fuck you can get hatsune miku to redeem forehead kiss coupons issued by someone else to whoever can figure out what the fuck I watched

I just want to know it existed and wasn’t a hallucination from drinking too much hot dog water or something
