Honestly their way is better.

Not a lot of room for humor immediately after a horrible natural disaster. The mild amusements came when the whole nation couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity of nothing but the same three AC Japan commercials playing for weeks, and the communal “ghost tremors” we all experienced long after the quake.

You would seriously feel your own heart beating and it would trigger a panic response.

I was in Ibaraki for this earthquake. One of the only times in my life I was ready to accept that it was the end for me.

Thankfully we didn’t get the worst of it where I was, but it was a crazy time for everyone.

Po po po po~n.
