Japanese comedy
If you ever wonder what is Japanese comedy, it's like the following:
Almost all the TV I've seen so far in Japan (which is not much) resembles something not too far from what you have seen.

I met some awesome up-and-coming comedians last Friday near Shibuya at a bar/pub where there were English comedy (mostly about Japan) and improv which I haven't seen since college. They were the funniest English teachers I've ever met on stage. I tried to make them laugh. Here's a tip: don't try to be funny to a comedian.
The comedians are really down to earth when you talk to them after and one even bought me a drink afterwards.
Upcoming this weekend: Hanami! Cherry Blossom viewing, otherwise known as get together with friends and get drunk under some beautiful sakura.
Exercpt from Wikipedia: "The custom was originally limited to the elite of the Imperial Court but soon spread to samurai society and by the Edo period to the common people as well. Tokugawa Yoshimune planted areas of cherry blossom trees to encourage this. Under the sakura trees, they had lunch and drank sake in cheerful feasts."

Just saying hi! Hello! I hope your aunt saved those shoes for me cause I'll be in HK soon.
OMG...crazy Japanese. I didn't know that a fart could travel that far.
But you have to admit it is funny. I remember watching TV when I was in Japan, I had no idea what they were saying but it was hilarious.
Good for people to know.
