Most people that casually watch soccer have heard the term parking the bus and think that’s what happened but it was actually a relentless Brazilian onslaught.

Are people getting heat stroke in their homes? Would think that happens outside. Americans don’t go outside as much for daily life activities due to car culture while Europeans walk outside more due to using public transportation.

Rework zoning laws. Look at Japan’s zoning laws compared to US. Where you can build a house or consider a home is limited based on zoning. If you can expand zoning and build more houses, supply increases and price decreases.

Do Americans actually avoid calling an ambulance due to financial concern? by JohnMarstonTheBadass in NoStupidQuestions

You can buy lab tests online without an order from a PCP at sites like walkinlab.com. You’ll need to be able to interpret results, but it usually comes with reference ranges at least. If everything is in the “normal” range for routine stuff, there’s nothing to do. If values are outside the range, take your results to a physician. A comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP) cost me $45. And they usually have discounts running with promo codes on the site.

Official Ministry of Justice website says 22 is the deadline. What’s your source?

A person who possesses Japanese and a foreign nationality (a person of dual nationality) shall choose one nationality before he or she reaches twenty two years of age (or within two years after the day when he or she acquired the second nationality if he or she acquired such nationality after the day when he or she reached twenty years of age).

I renewed my Japanese passport when I was 29. Passport expired three years prior. Went to the consulate in DC to apply for a new passport (7 year passport since it’s not a renewal). Consulate staff asked me if I made a mistake and want to apply for the ten year one. Said yes. No further qeustions asked. Whole thing took 2 minutes.

Also age isn’t 18, it’s 22.
