[Jormungand]

do they have weed in japan im sure they have it but is it hard to get and/or expensive and wut r the laws concerning it over ther

[NERD]

Marijuana is illegal in Japan. A Japanese seaman was arrested for possession, joining five others who were already arrested.

It's probably best to leave that alone when you're visiting... Unless you're up for a good international incident.

[kyaa the catlord]

After smoking that bong, go to singapore and egg some cars. Please. Thanks. Buh-bye.

[Henjin]

Good plan, good plan! Then drop by China and distribute some anti-comunist propaganda.

[Quartermaster]

Why is marijuana illegal in Japan? Did they simply follow America's example?

[nawruz]

i think it's safe to say that, weed, is considered illegal in most countries. japan, malaysia, singapore, thailand the list goes on.

in malaysia, it's severe if you're caught. there is a limit and if you cross that fine line, it's the noose for you. so leave Mary Jane behind if you ever pay Malaysia a visit.

It'll be schwag, and you'll pay through the nose for it. Crumple up some leaves from the ground, wrap them in a piece of paper, and enjoy. It'll cost you less for the same buzz.

Yes, because Marijuana is only illegal in America.

[nice gaijin]

A foreigner caught with marijuana can bet on being deported with few extenuating circumstances, the best policy is to avoid it altogether.

[Daishikaze]

I remember when Paul McCartney got in trouble for bringing some into the country.

And the subsequent MST3K joke during a godzilla film:

*SDF deploying tanks and whatnot*

Joel: Their making sure McCartney doesn't smuggle anymore dope into the country

Crow: You mean Linda?

which was funny at the time, but not so much so now that Linda is dead.

[Killuminati]

Go ahead and smoke that shit dawg. You won't get into trouble they're are some many people there how could that catch you

[stsparky]

Marijuana is very illegal in Japan. Back during my first trip to Japan - I was at a Gaijin House in Edogawabashi where some British Boy Model lunatic and this wacky Liverpudian Gypsy who sold "trashy" souvenirs lit up. I knew if the authorities found MJ in the "Guest House" - it would be collective blame all around and I'd be "banned for life" from Japan. So that evening I returned my key to the nice lady manager and bailed to a Business Hotel for the remaining two days of stay.

It's rude to break the law when you're a guest. Just a word of caution - Sparky

[Henjin]

You won't get into trouble they're are some many people there how could that catch you

It's obvious you've been smoking something... That made no sense whatsoever.

[mediocre]

You can at least alternate addictions for your stay in japan; it's 'easy' to get a BJ and a soapy rubdown from a "working girl"

What retard starts a thread like this???

[Godon]

That one. *points to first post*

[Pierrot le Fou]

6000 yen/gram of middies. That's crap. I was getting good pot for $25/gram ($50/eighth, which is 3.2 grams) back in college. I don't smoke here at all.

[mediocre]

Only the cheap dealers I knew would do $25/gram and some did $30 for a half-eighth.
Of course, we found a 250-300/ounce guy who had exquisite stuff, which saved us a bit of cash (and inevitably, led to a bit of cash) -- but that is neither here nor there.


Ah, college: the memories.

[stillbornsinger]

hey the man's got a right to ask a question... And this question is more than legitimate.

It is availible in Japan... but you'd probably end being expensive (like everything else)

Its much more availible in other southeast asian countries... but again, there are some harsh penalties in most... death in Malaysia, Brunei, and several others. I believe its life in Singapore, and Thailand you'd probably just be better off paying off the cop.

Its readily availible in India, I was offered several times by tuk tuk drivers (little trike taxi's) but of course turned them down since getting high isn't worth popping on a piss test and fucking up the rest of my life.

[PopCulturePooka]

Its illegal in Japan
Naughty boy.


Ahem...

But easy enough to get.

The Fujisawa/Enoshima scene has a lot of pot (and coccaine) floating around it. Especially in Summer months at those beach parties.

Just be really careful dude. But yeah, its around.


Heh funny story.

One night myself and 5 other mates went to visit some korean guy (Aki) a friend knew. The korean guy owned a bar in Kawasaki. So we head to the bar and it was one of those only in Japan tiny little deals where it seems only friends of the owner and their friends go. Its was us 5, the owner and 3 others pretty much all night. So he put on a bar tab for us.

Anyway back room had karaoke. About 2AM most of us were in the back room singing away. I went to the bar area to chat to Aki and theres this 18 odd year old Japanese skate kid sitting there. Aki asks me to talk to him because the kid wanted to talk to foreigners. Feh.

Anyway kid turns out kinda cool, so I invite back to the karaoke room to meet the toehrs. We are all sitting there drinking and singing, kids not talking that much, bit Gaijin Struck. After a while the kid cracks open his bag, pulls out a pipe, packs it with weed and starts to blaze up. Suddenly, without asking us, or us asking him he turns to the rest of us, pulls out a second pipe and offers us someof his weed.

So away we went.

Great night in the end.

Hour later me and the kid stumble to a Konbini, buy a jumbo pack of fireworks and start letting them off on the freeway.
Ha.

[Jormungand]

That is an original statement. Yeah, definitely. :rolleyes:

Yes, I missed out one, but it didn't have enough typos in it. Amazingly.

Where I'm from, Jormungand, you would have learnt English, and you'd have learnt it well.

Wow. I wonder where they were working. When you say "Yokosuka Base" it pretty much means the U.S. Navy base, but across the bay there is the JMSDF base, too. My mom's friend's son is on one of the ships on the JMSDF base, I'll have to ask if he knew them.

[usethendestroy]

Random, I think you missed a spot or two back there. Expensive instead of expensieve, and rats instead of rat's.
So I am hereby demoting you to a grammar fascist.
If you wish to challenge yourself and try out for the "nazi" title again, go over this post (http://www.outpostnine.com/forum/showthread.php?p=39519#post39519) in a similar manner.
Yes, it is a challenge that made even the board of Internet Nitpickers have headaches and/or distorted vision.

[Random]

Expensive, right. I always thought it was with ei in UK English, but it seems to not be so. None of my teachers have corrected me yet.... :D

Also, why is it rats not rat's? I would have thought, the ass belonging to the rat, it would be rat's. Might as well learn something here :D.

I'll go see the other post now.

ive seen ALOT of crazy shit in my life i saw a dude get stabbed to death in front of me once


I've seen a lot of crazy shit in my life; once I saw a dude get stabbed to death in front of me.

but this is probly the crazyiest thing wer im directly involved thers this gang of fucken skinheads wich i got a fued with it started back when i was real heavy into drugs


But this is probably the craziest thing which I was directly involved in: there was this gang of fucking skinheads, with whom I got into a feud. It was back when I was a heavy drug user.

i was hangin out in front of a 7/11 waiten for one of my friends who went and picked up some pcp and these 2 skinheads walked up and started shit wit me sayin shit about my hair which is pretty long so i got real pissed and beat the shit outa them they wer fucken pushovers


I was hanging out in front of a 7-11, waiting for one of my friends who went off to pick up some PCP, when these two skinheads walked up and started some shit with me, saying shit about my hair, which was pretty long. So I got real pissed and beat the shit out of them; they were fucking pushovers.

i hooked up wit my friend and went about my day not thinkin nothin of it so i went and was hangin out all night smokin some pcp around 4:30 i left my friends house and started wandering for mybe an hour then just sat chilled by a train track


Later I hooked up with my friend and went about my day, not thinking nothing of what happened, hanging out all night smoking some PCP. Around 4:30 I left my friend's house and started wandering for maybe an hour, then just sat down and chilled by a train track.

then 5 skinheads walked by 1 of em was from before afew pulled out knives and tryed to jump me i went fucken berserk i charged em fucken sreamin and droped fucken all five of em in afew seconds

That's when five skinheads walked by, one of them was from the earlier encounter. A few of them pulled out their knives and tried to jump me. I went fucking berserk. I charged them, fucking screaming and dropped all five of them in a few seconds.

i fucked2 of em up realy badly so then like 6 more skinheads come over no joke i guess they heard my yellin they see all ther friends in a bloody pile and they start running

I fucked up two of them really bad, when maybe six or more skinheads came over. No joke! I guess they heard me yelling. They saw all their friends in a bloody pile and started running away.

i start chasin after them i cought one of them and he turned around and slashed me acros my right chest and upper arm so i grab his arm wit one hand and his hand wit the other and fucken snaped his wrist sideways then i beat the livin shit outa him

I start chasing after them. I caught one of them; he turned around and slashed me across my right chest and upper arm. So I grab his arm with one hand, his hand with the other, and fucking snapped his wrist sideways. Then I beat the living shit out of him.

i heard later that he almost died it was starten to get light out so i split before the morning trafic on the trains drew a crowd

Later, I heard that he almost died. As it was becoming bright and early, I split before the morning traffic by the train station drew a crowd.

Then, I beat the living shit out of him. I heard later that he almost died. It was starting to get light out so I split before the morning traffic on the trains drew a crowd.


And now for a proper English version:


I’ve seen a lot of crazy shit in my life. I’ve seen someone get stabbed to death in front of me once, but this is probably the craziest thing where I’m involved:

There is a gang of skinheads who I got in a feud with. It started when I was heavily into drugs.

I was hanging out in front of a 7/11 store waiting for one of my friends, who had gone to get some PCP.

Just then, two skinheads walked past and started making negative comments on my hair, which was pretty long at the time. I become very angry, and proceeded to beat them both up.

They were so easy! I then met up with my friend, and we went about the day without thinking any more about the fight. We were hanging out at his house, smoking PCP.



Around 4:30 I left his house and started just walking around for roughly an hour. I then went and sat by a train tack. Five skinheads then walk up to me, and one of them was from the fight earlier that day. A few of them pulled out knives, and tried to attack me. I went crazy! I charged them, screaming a battle-cry, and managed to defeat all five of them in seconds. I really hurt two of them a lot.

Two more skinheads came to join the party. However, as soon as they glimpse the bloody pile of their fallen allies, they turn tail and flee.

Being the battle-ready soul that I am, I pursued, and was able to catch up with one of them.

He turned around and managed to slash my chest and arm, so I grabbed his arm with one hand and his hand with my other, and twisted his wrist sideways.

After that, I attacked continuously, until the man was almost dead. I happened to discover later that he had indeed almost passed away, but not quite.



Dawn was starting to break, so I fled before the morning traffic from the trains drew a crowd.

See, that's where the translator comes in. It's up to him/her to decide which part is important and which is not. I left in the cussing as much as I could because it would be even more sterilized from the original.

On a side note- Mission Thread Hacking complete!

[Random]

I did leave the vulgarity in, in my direct translation, but I decided it wise to remove it from the more refined production: While it certainly gave the piece character, I felt that the words themselves were inappropriate for the more emotionally-deprived vocabulary used in the second peice.

Had I have left the cuss-words in, I feel that they would do the end result no justice.

To your side note: Yes, indeed. No longer do we talk about the availability of illegal substances in Japan. I feel that this is a change for the better :)

[usethendestroy]

Oh, and for the coup de grâce: I'm 14. How old are you?
24, and you're treading on a slippery slope. Arguing over internet about grammar and playing D&D is going to lead to sad and misspent youth, and a geeky future.
Someday you'll be 24 and you'll notice that you're arguing over internet with teenagers and your palms have started to grow hair.

Oh, wait that's just me, nevermind.

Random fails to think of a snappy comeback: you have an excellent point.

But.

You do act(write?) maturely for your age, and I'm sure this doesn't impede your life, now or in future.

Nah, no offense taken. And yeah, I get that "you write maturely" thing a load. Used to be my signeture; still is at the bottom of the link in my sig.

I'm not crazy about learning how people ended up. So I'll pass. And betting that a website is going to be around for 10 more years is riskier than taking a dive face down into the Wall Street.

[Random]

Yes, it is, but who cares?
If neither of us are here then, then it won't matter, but if it does still exist and we're still here then it will have stayed up.

Also, most people died while diving into Wall Street. But some websites are still up, more than 10 years behind them.

Fuck has a very long entry (2 pages or so) in the Oxford dictionary, my friend, it is very much a legitimate word with several centuries of history. For example, it was originally spelt fuch (pronounced "fook") and meant to stab or impale.

[Random]

I realise it's as offical a word as any, but that doesn't mean it isn't a vulgar word, nor that it might be used in everyday texts.
Would you hand in a report to your boss / teacher with the word "fucking" in every paragraph?
Ok, would most people?

Oh, and the latest edition of the Oxford English dictionary apparently also has netspeak in it. I'm yet to confirm this, but if it's true, I fear.

[CNagy]

From what I've heard, it has netspeak defined, but actual examples of netspeak are not considered words in the Oxford English Dictionary. It is rather the same as having a definition for "slang" or "ebonics," it doesn't mean that you'll find "ain't" or "shizzle" in the dictionary.

[Whothefuckispink]

Random (I hate referring to people using their nickname, but oh well), how do you go about to try and get other kids your age (unless you lied about the "14" part) to write proper english? Cause i definitely should make the effort, it is very much needed in this world of leet-speak. It's great to know that there is someone out there who's still winning to type put all three letters in "you", but i'd wish that the world was full of you, it is almost tragic that such a thing should raise your eyebrow when it could be the norm.
Anyway, i thank you in advance for the good nights sleep i know im going to have tonight.

Basically, when people talk to me on MSN or any other IM client, I refuse to talk to them unless they speak properly.
When they need help from you, they'll start to type properly. Then, it's a case of making sure they type fast, and soon enough they'll only type properly.

Also, constantly complain, or alternativly just don't understand anything they say like that. They'll get exasperated and either type properly, or not get whatever they needed / wanted from you.

Finally, if you can inspire shame in them for typing with netspeak, they will never use it and become the people who try to convert others. This is the ultimate objective.


Of course, if you can find your own ways of doing this, use them. The more people trying to convert netspeakers to using real words, the better! :D

You could always become a Crusader in the Church of St. Webster and St. Brief-Holt. We're having Inquisition Tuesdays, which is usually a blast.

Youre gonna make me cry, random. I can honestly say i have never heard before of a 14 year old preaching proper netspeak, and from now i am also gonna make it clear to people around me that if they want to say something to me using the internet, they'd better type correctly. A small step in the right direction is better than a big step to nowhere. (Ooh, im so clever!)
