Jackpotting Japanese Vending Machines
High school dropouts, strung-out junkies, and fucked gaijin, behold: This is all you need to jackpot vending machines in Japan. I’ve seen evidence of it poured down coin slots of every make and model of jihanki, but passersby usually mistake it as simple vandalism rather than evidence of (usually attempted but not successful) theft. Hearsay in my college dorm was that older machines are more likely to produce coins (via return slot) than newer ones, and lengthy debates were held on the question of whether other brands of dishsoap would work as well as MamaLemon, pictured above. Basically, the entire jackpotting phenomenon* exists mainly because: A. Japanese college students are…

Wrong Number
Through some incredibly crappy piece of cosmic fate, my home phone number is a single digit off from the number of the office running a ferry service down at Sumoto Port. This makes for some interesting phone calls sometimes, usually people who ask when the next boat is leaving, etc. Usually I’m pretty cool about it, but recently, I’ve been a big asshole about wrong numbers because my girl is back in Thailand and when the phone rings, I assume it’s her. Yesterday the phone rang at 4:30 AM and I was like, “mmmgggrrrrcoughcoughgegege – whello?” “What time does the next ferry leave?” Oh, for the love of christ! “WRONG…

Return of the Kancho Sense
Azrael’s site (the “I am a Japanese school teacher” dude) is back up! Check out the latest installment of his adventures here. “I make it back to the haven of the teachers room…but not the man I once was. No, I was once a proud pillar of Anti-Kancho, Dickdodging magnificence. Now, I limped gingerly back to my seat, my tail between my legs, my ass no longer pure. This was definitely not in the contract.” This is some seriously funny shit.

Owner of the greatest bar story. Ever.
Sent from a reader: (Click to enlarge.) Apparently this clipping is from two years ago, but I had never heard of it until now. That guy has balls the size of basketballs, or a brain the size of a pea. Come to think of it, those two traits aren’t necessarily mutually exclusive, are they?

Bathroom Habits
Go take this survey and “find out what strange habits other people have when going to the bathroom.”: The Bathroom Survey I can’t believe so many people eat when they’re on the pot. That’s just fucking sick, yo. (On the other hand, I suppose that’s how they make those corncobs (for wiping… err, scrubbing?) apparently found in outhouses down south. Also, regarding front/back alignment of TP on spool, I have a really unhealthy obsession with keeping it strictly front. It bugs the hell out of me to find rolls mounted backward, anywhere. Before houseguests come over, I switch in a new roll to ensure nobody runs out and mounts a…
