Heh, here's a site for you guys - (
http://www.kittyhell.com/) Hello Kitty Hell.
All I can say about this story is that nobody does "stays indoors all day, playing with weird crap, and just generally creeps me out" better than the Japanese. Otaku is practically a state religion.

Last time I heard otakus in general are still considered subhumans in Japan by the rest of the population(Not that the rest is much better).

That site is a HK-fansite in disguise. Harmless, humourless prefabbed articles about how much the guy supposedly hates all things HK. And then you find out that his wife sells that rubbish online. Yes, the whole thing is perverted, but in a very boring way.

Yeah, I guess cult is the term I wanted to use.
Not many are otaku, but the ones that are are pretty extreme, although otaku-lite is becoming a little more fashionably mainstream these days.

Sort of a commentary on post-modern culture generally, isn't it?

I think I meant to say "Put some fucking effort into it or don't bother" or something.
Says the fucking hermit who doesn't even come by here much anymore! I mean, I come out all the way to the States to see you and after that... nothing! No phone calls. No PMs. Not even forum posts. I'm beginning to think that you're avoiding me. Did you get those edible panties in the mail?

Indeed, ":rolleyes: Japanese :joke: :joke: :joke:" is a pithy comment on a reasonably interesting (or at the very least novel) news snippet. Or wait. No, that's not what I meant to say. I think I meant to say "Put some fucking effort into it or don't bother" or something.
:joke:
Yes, well, it's so original and cutting edge event (as such things often are with Japanese) that for some time after reading it I still didn't made up my mind about it. Other than.... "JAPANESE!" :joke:
Or I could compose a mini essay about new trends in impact of internet relationships and parallel virtual lives on people's social behavior, but I guess there's enough of them out there already. So I choose power of uncommented news.

Well, what about the guy's point-of-view. I mean, maybe she wasn't into the same sort of things--if you know what I mean. So what if he wants her to dress up like one of the Tellie-Tubbies and jam it home, then she sure as hell better.
Really, who doesn't like a good ramming every-now-and-then?
I say lock her away and good-riddance to her, the chick should fry.
Women--can't live with 'em, huh? *nudge nudge* Can't live without 'em, eh? *nudge nudge*
