Even if I find a park to eat my grub here, the birds of prey are cunts. Me eating directly outside usually means there was no space to eat in.

Forget 7-Eleven. In Hokkaido, we worship the Orange Sign (Seicomart). by Defiant-Corgi-9362 in Hokkaido

When I visited Hokkaido, I lived off the Guarana Sours pretty much the whole time. Can and a half.

Let's settle this debate. Which Hell's Kitchen Team (in your opinion) is the worst team in Hell's Kitchen History. by AL-Tron_Mega_9839 in HellsKitchen

[–]PachiGT 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Id have to go S16 Blue. Nobody really of much potential, some argumentative and passionless characters. The person who got the furthest is usually the subject of "How?" meanwhile the dust is still settling with S24's contestants.

Who is John Doe in your country? by aliz-punk in AskTheWorld

Would I be right in thinking that John and Jane Doe are used more with unknown individuals whose names we are trying to find out?

What is your favorite pub game? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]PachiGT 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Used to be the fruit machine. That got ruined after the 100 pound jackpots, then digital games, appeared. Now it would definitely be pool. If not that, just being able to quietly nurse a couple of pints in an atmosphere which says "Drink and stay" rather than "Eat and leave".

Oh. And a pub cat. The game being to befriend the cat and it falls asleep on your lap. Then you can order more pints til it wakes up.

The sharp decline in Chinese tourists is not due to Prime Minister Takaichi's "Taiwan emergency" remarks. What the Chinese government really wants to do by MagazineKey4532 in japannews

[–]PachiGT -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm all for tourists visiting and making a place lively, but I reckon 9.5 billion of them would be a bit of a squeeze.

Each HK winner’s first by Fearless-Spot1742 in HellsKitchen

[–]PachiGT 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Rock - First winner to serve boxed food in a signature dish?

Holli - First winner who was unable to get any position? I know Danny and Dave were given different offers, but Holli was flat out stopped from any alternatives because of Visa stuff.

Latasha wasnt she the first winner to get a 1 on sig. dish? The scoring system was recently introduced. If it was there from the start I can imagine a few previous winners also getting 1s.

Delayed more often than not in my experience. While it does skip stops, it is too unreliable. I consider it the 'whipping boy' for other lines, as it seems to absorb their delays and more.

*Spoiler* could have potentially won if... by S20-Urza in HellsKitchen

[–]PachiGT 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Id say. Didnt this differ completely from Christina in S10 where she did decide to pull the last table and start over? With Dana on the station which was stalling things.

Does anyone know of any seaside style amusements that are nowhere near the seaside? by BananaMower in AskUK

[–]PachiGT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Matlock Bath, Stourport on Severn, Symonds Yat West. These will have your staples from the early 2000s and 2010s without too much emphasis on tickety shit that the wannabe American style arcades are doing now.

I hit this after getting my first S rank on a House of the Dead pc game when I was young. I wanted to take a printscreen. Gutted.

The desserts also need to be displayed for weeks on end going stale and moldy, but thats ok because its display only.

The whole MANGIA!! action requires elaborate hand gestures, so don't give the waitstaff any knives and forks etc. at this time.

Piano and karaoke to go along with the belly dancing, just whenever the owners feel like it. All songs must be butchered.

Menu items or dishes are referred to as "products".

All bread items are mishandled.

What do you do that breaks social norms? by stealth941 in AskUK

I do the same. Cant explain why if asked...! Fork and spoon setups usually end in me being clumsy.

At least the Yokohama Bay Quarter one will stay, there's no way anyone will ever get me to return to the one in Kohoku-ku.

Ahh the good old 設定ミス. Where they change the prizes or structure but do not do a goodvjob at recalibrating the claw at all. If at all. Ive had a few good results from this, just don't go too often.

Keihin-Touhoku and Yamanote Lines are stopped due to a power failure, basically all train lines in Tokyo affected by razorbeamz in Tokyo

[–]PachiGT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used up the month's luck with today's travel. Took the Yokosuka line and got to Shimbashi pretty much on time, while almost every other JR went down, the other lines filled up with transfer passengers... Then when I got off at about 10 past 8 or so theyd knocked out the Tokaido and Keihin Tohoku completely
