Maybe you should move here, ide?

Hell, I should've.  I wish I were young.

I kid you, but I do wish you luck in your continuing journeys.
Should have came to Korea when you had the chance.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I was just offered a position to work in Kagawa, Shikoku. The work would be with teenagers, rent would likely be a bit less, and I think I prefer the location- But it also sounds like more work for less pay relative to the position I already have.

You prefer to live in the countryside with no people under 35 (and over 18), no pubs, little western food, etc... over Kobe, one of the coolest cities in Japan in its own right and just a quick local train from Kyoto and Osaka?

Playing with the wife's Keruig coffee machines. I don't see the fascination with coffee.... OH MY GOD PUMPKIN COFFEE.

They are the shit.

Mine angers me, as they don't brew enough.  :mad:
Doctor said it was a great way to control my coffee intake, but now I just use a monster mug and pop those fuckers in and out like shells at a skeet shoot.

They are, but she didn't like me touching her cups. Her coffee even.

I have a huge collection of coffee mugs, but I can't throw any away.

The countryside is arousing, conservative, proper, traditional, wholesome.

Kobe is infected with foreign taint and glittering lights. How am I supposed to feel the mono-no-aware? Needless to say Osaka is even worse, and Kyoto, while lovely, is an ossified and unnatural relic. Inaka is the strongest :3

Edit: Ahh, I haven't said enough! The countryside is shrinking, decayed, down-on-its luck; you can feel the mold gently overcome it as it slips into disrepair. It is in the comfortable slide to destruction that feels so warm and wonderful, like a middle aged beauty going gracefully to seed. The cities (And particularly Osaka) feel almost prurient in their excessive bustle and glitter to succeed. So many of the things I reflexively give my affection and loyalty to are only found in the lovely inaka, far from the indecent bustle of Japan's odious urban centers.

Amakusa, in Kyushu, is among the very fastest shrinking areas in Japan, economically depressed, and a remote island primarily famous for hidden Christian communities. That's where i'd most want to be; ultimately I hope to find some sort of career there, once I have more comfort to be choosy. That yukkuri life sounds so delicious I can almost taste it
It can't be helped...We'll have to use 'that'

But I thought you wanted to find a young girl willing to say ara ara (which incidentally I've only ever heard of through you)?

I mean, Jos, he just posted about wanting to live in an economically depressed area. Boo aint got a full deck.

You've only heard ara ara through me? How many middle aged women do you hang out with?

(Also, Ara Ara is a very domestic, obasan kind of word. You won't hear it much from young people.)
