    The heavy foreign woman on the TobuTojo line near Ikebukuro...
    I was the guy wearing headphones.
    No need to hiss and knash teeth, it was just a nod and a smile, nothing more.

    Yeah, she probably saw her friends later and was like, "OMG, some gaijin guy smiled at me on the train; don't you just hate that?!?" Then they'll talk about how hard it is to live in Japan, especially if you're a gaijin gal.
    Stop boring me and try to think; it's the new sexy!

    Actually I hate it when I give people a nod and they pretend they did not see me. So many kids with autism these days.

    Poor fellows they thought they were the only gaijin in Japan.

    It truly is a shame. You are such an important public figure that recognition is at least expected from your loyal subjects.

    Poor fellows thought that you would just let them stroll by minding their own business.

    Dead wrong they were, dead wrong.

    I'm talking about the ones who obviously hide or feel shocked when they see another gaijin. Like their dream bubble just collapsed. I've experienced this more then once. Like they view you as competition.

    It has nothing to do with feeling more important. Maybe its because I was raised in a small city in a small country who knows.

    In my experience, ignoring trolls is usually the best policy.

    I saw a gaijin today (okay it was a couple of days ago). While I was ordering happy meals for the kids because they have awesome toys and the food is just bad. In walks a tall white guy with B.O. that made my eyes water and I was a good 15 feet away. Was that you?

    Default HEARD a gaijin today...

    me: just another of the few remaining white guys at Shinagawa immigration center

    you: middle eastern looking guy stripped to the waist in the lobby telling the immigration authorities (and all the other immigrants in the building) how you REALLY FEEL about whatever for well over 30 minutes.

    Perhaps you gave voice to a primal scream sleeping in the belly of every gaijin.

    Was it you?
