If you don’t mind saying, where in the show are you currently? Because depending on that, “MC last Minute heel turn” can mean drastically different things

Nah. She is a night-owl and always stays up for hours later than myself. Which makes it really hard to get up from the couch and go to bed for me in turn.

Go to bed on time finally

It is absolutely NOT fine from a technical perspective

Alright, thanks for the recommendation (seriously)!

Definitely planned for next time. This time we went south to Fukuoka (already very few tourists) and rented a car back to Tokyo, staying in smaller towns. Highly recommend.

True. Especially the more “popular” temples are only open during regular hours, though.

In any case, I don’t doubt that you can have lots of fun and have the city for yourself at early hours!

Yeah but then most of the things people come to Kyoto for a closed.

Not saying I disagree.

If there’s specific things you want to do that happen to be in Kyoto, I agree. I just think (somewhat from personal experience) that going to Kyoto because that’s what you should do on a Japan trip is a bad idea.

Interesting. We really enjoyed Tokyo, but spent most of our time there in smaller, out of the way areas. Absolutely loved it.

Though my favorite memories are from a super tiny seaside town (no public transport, ended up there because we misread the map) in the middle of nowhere.

I mean… that’s a pretty memorable trip, no?

Oh, and while I’m at it: do not trust any food recommendation written in English. Good or bad.

If you travel to Japan, honestly just… Skip Kyoto. It is so full of tourists (national and international), you cannot possibly imagine unless you’ve seen it.

Sure, there’s a lot of impressive temples there. But so is the rest of the country.

We were lucky enough to spend 4 weeks in Japan earlier this year, and if I could do the trip again, I would straight-up skip Kyoto and Osaka.

Rent a car, drive in some random direction. You’ll he a lot happier, it it will actually be your trip. By far the best memories coke from places not in any travel guide.

The one exception here: it’s great to have it installed on your parents’ PC when you’re the one doing the update once in a while when you are around. Rock solid in between, no nagging, and if something did break, easy to roll back.

That is actually a really interesting approach to moderation, huh.

I have a small plastic freezer bag in my pocket, which I use turned inside-out to open the door.

My GF has severe (no, severe) OCD, and among all the rituals that are, objectively, pointless… This is the one that I wholeheartedly understand and agree with.

The comments here are awful. I am sorry for the abuse you are receiving.

I’m a staunch atheist myself, and even for some of the same reasons others are mentioning in their rage-comments. That being said, hating a person for their religious beliefs alone is baffling, and yes, makes you a bigot.

The exception I would make here is for situation and people where they, based on their religious beliefs hate you, and there’s nothing that can be done about it.I also would not call it bigoted to hate religious institutions for the discord and pain they inflict on the world.

But hating people because “well I was able to see through religion, so I am justified in hating everyone that did not and is still religious” is just such a disingenuous take. It denies the reality of indoctrination-like upbringings, of the differing educations people receive, and puts all religious people into a single “enemy” group.

I’m not US-American, as I assume many of these commenters are; where I live, the proportion of religious people is a lot lower, and the religiosity is… less pronounced, let’s say. It is much more difficult to find someone here who would, for example, go “Homosexuality is a sin according to the bible. Therefore I hate you.”; most religious people seem to have a differentiated opinion about these things, usually being more in line with “I believe there’s a God that loves us. The bible was written by fallible humans whose biases are present in the texts”.

Don’t get me wrong, I still think they are wrong in this and pity them for the time and energy lost on pleasing an imaginary being, and for the pain their beliefs can inflict upon themselves; but ultimately, that’s up to each individual person, and it does not justify hate.

Heavenly Delusion OP

Same; can you also, by any chance, wiggle them?
