Generally how accepting are the Japanese of white people? I heard that they don't like weaboos, or however they're spelled, at all. I'm not a weeaboo or anything and I don't like...exalt the Japanese culture, but Tokyo is a city I'd like to visit someday just to you know visit I guess along with other big cities of the world. So my question is: does anyone know how accepting the Japanese would be of a normal white guy just visiting? on a side note I would be considered a tourist of course, but I wouldn't be wearing cheap clothes, a fanny pack, and taking a million pictures of everything. I literally would be just some normal guy.

Capture card advice please Hey basil I need some advice with picking a capture card. This is the first one I was looking at: [url=http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3504456&Sku=M501-1326]here[/url] but then I saw one on Amazon that looked the same (I know it is different though) for much less: [url=http://www.amazon.com/EasyCAP-DC60-Creator-Capture-High-quality/dp/B002H3BSCM/]here[/url] Would the cheaper one be good at all? Would either of them work on any tv that runs composite cables? The tv I was planning to use isn't even flat screen, but I do have another tv to use if I need to which is HD and everything. Will either of them record in HD or at least good quality? Would they both work with an

Why wont maplestory work? It's been doing this for a while, at least a month or two. Basically when I go to the website I log in, press "Play Game" and everything but then a grey box appears telling me there's either a server check of my firewall is blocking it. I know there isn't a server check so I went to disable my firewall. That didn't work, I got the same grey box. The game works on my brother's laptop but it won't work on my computer. I've cleared my cache, history, and cookies, I've deleted and redownloaded the game. I just don't know what else to do, anyone else have this issue before?

My stubborn dad doesn't want me to snowboard. We go on a family ski trip a few times every year and my dad and I are great skiers (double blacks), but I want to try snowboarding. My reasoning for snowboarding: I'm a great surfer and skater so I imagine I wouldn't be terrible at snowboarding All my friends who go to the mountains snowboard, none of them ski It looks more fun for my tastes honestly And lastly, I just want to His reasons against me snowboarding: I went snowboarding once when I was 8 years old (before I was surfing or skating) and was terrible as one would expect, therefore he thinks I'd still be terrible despite him acknowledging my talent in surfing and skating He doesn't know how to snowboard, and he says if I fall I won't k

A good and easy way to get kicked out of school I want to be expelled from my high school because frankly I hate it and want to go to another one. I'm thinking of some ways that will get me expelled without my parents killing me. My school is homophobic, the whole school, not necessarily the people in the school (although nearly 97% I'd say are) but the school doesn't want their name out there saying they support gays. The next Prop 8 event that rises up I was gonna wear my school uniform in (yes we have uniforms :/ ). Kids were threatened with expulsion form my school at a previous Prop 8 march which was on the same street as my school because they were wearing the uniforms in it. This is one plan. The next plan is I initiate a fight with

How to break up with my girlfriend. I need to break up with my girlfriend, and if not today then very soon. She's done so much wrong, she's been unfaithful to me, she's lied to me even from the beginning of the relationship (I didn't find out until recently, about 2 months in), she's manipulated me, she's gotten me to lie to people. And yeah that last part is partly my fault too, for falling into it, but either way she's done enough. Especially cheating on me. I'm just done with it all, I don't want to be in a relationship who doesn't love me and respect me the same way I do for her. The problem is I have no way of getting over to her house, and she has no way of getting to my house, for at least a week or more. A mutual friend of ours told
