I’m here to defend the Festiva. Great car.

her father is basically dying, yet she’s spending her time shit-stirring and spreading GOP disinformation on daytime tv.

Why shouldn’t they pay out of state tuition when they are not from that state? If some one from North Carolina went there for school they would have to pay out of state tuition. Why shouldn’t someone from another country pay out of state tuition whether they are here legally or not?

ARE South Asians marginalized? Or are they actually doing better than the average white person?

See, this is the part of the argument I don’t understand. I don’t buy that he was bullied *because* of Apu, rather the bullying took the *form* of Apu because that was the only popular Indian character the children would be familiar with. It seems like the Simpsons are getting blamed for being one of the first…

Still waiting for that “Problem with Cletus” documentary. Oh wait it’s still OK to make fun of white trash, right?

I get a quarter of beef every year from our family ranch and the Chuck is one of my favorite roasts for sous vide. Arm roast is also excellent after a good 24ish hour soak.

This is a car enthusiast website. Almost every issue covered here is a first world problem. Doesn’t mean it’s not a problem.

Filming other people without permission is a serious problem with legal consequences in a whole lot of places, including the west, and Japan is stricter about privacy.

It is kind of rude to not ask someone if its okay to film them.

As someone who wants to eventually live in Japan and has heard how difficult it is to get a permit (one of my acquaintances had to fly to Korea every 3 months for several years before he got a staying permit), stories like this makes me really angry.

No... social rules about cameras and filming people or places without permission. The sushi restaurant is an ancillary fact to the greater issue of privacy rights as I understand them.

It is kind of rude to not ask someone if its okay to film them. I don’t think that is particular to Japan. The sanitary concerns are real as well and I assure you people would freak out about it in America as well.

Exactly, would it really have been that hard to ask for permission? I know the old saying is that it’s easier to ask for forgiveness but I don’t think that applies once a judge gets involved.

The guy that filmed this video has lived in Japan for a while so doesn’t get to play the ignorant tourist card.

I’m trying to think of one thing that I’ve heard about that would have had a different reaction in the US. I’m pretty sure if you plunked down a camera in the middle of a salad bar the management wouldn’t be super thrilled.

Filming people in restaurants without permission could get you in trouble in America, so I’m not sure why this guy thought it was ok in Japan. Conveyer belt sushi restaraunts are fun and a cool experience, so I usually take some quick pics/videos, being careful to avoid other people and just focus on the…

The least he could have done is ask the permission. You know, like the hundred of thousands of professionals who film documentaries about Japan in the past. Self-proclaimed “Youtubers” are just idiots with cameras.

Two weeks or so, while my Mother and I were eating at our fancy local Sushi restaurant, we and everyone else in the restaurant were approached by the local TV Guys if we’re cool potentially being recorded while they’re filming the Chef preparing the food.

you don't even know him personally except he talks shit to other fighters seems like you're a judgmental prick
