Aaarrrrrgghhh GOOGLE!
A very pissed off letter I want to send to Google Adsense but can’t because there’s no contact option:
Dear Google,
I have been an Adsense user for a long time.
Suddenly you have decided that my earnings must be shown in Japanese yen because I live in Japan. It’s not something I want, but I have to do it to continue with adsense – fine.
However, you tell me I must accept new terms and conditions and these are only shown in Japanese. I don’t speak Japanese. Just because I live in Japan, it doesn’t mean I speak Japanese.
My computer is set to English. My browser is set to English. My account is set to English. But you insist that terms and conditions are shown to me in a language I don’t understand? Ridiculous.
There is no way in Adsense support to contact you about this. No way to get help about the terms and conditions. What am I supposed to do?
It’s bad enough that every time I go to http://www.google.com/ you ignore my PC OS language, browser language setting, Google account language setting, the fact I’ve clicked on “Show Google in English” millions of times, and you redirect me to http://www.google.co.jp/ – but presenting Japanese terms and conditions to me and forcing me to accept them without giving the option of a different language or even be able to contact you about them is just taking the biscuit.
Repeat: PC has English OS. Web browser has English as the primary encoding language. Google account is set to English. Stop thinking that what I really want is Japanese!
Arrrrggghhh!
Of course this letter will have zero effect and I’ll be forced to accept terms and conditions I don’t understand, but writing it made me feel a whole lot better.

Yaeba
A new search term suddenly became popular on my blog yesterday – Yaeba. I mentioned Yaeba before on my post “The blog for Japanese girls with bad teeth“. Why the term should suddenly become popular now, I don’t know.

A reasonably pleasant examlpe of Yaeba - it can get very bad

Up skirt Japanese
For some reason, through some quirk of words on a page, one of the most popular search terms for people finding my blog from google is “up skirt japanese”.
Seriously, the number of hits I get per day from surfers looking for photos up Japanese skirts…. Well until now I’ve not had a photo to satisfy you, but today I have:

Up skirt Japanese
Here we have a guy trying to take a photography up the skirt of someone Japanese at I party I went to recently.
What do you think? Is she sexy? Do you want to see her panties?
Well I have a surprise for you. The girl in the skirt is a guy, not a girl. He’s wearing the schoolgirl costume to a halloween party.
So now there really is no doubt that you’re a pervert. Not only were you searching for pornographic sexy pics up Japanese skirts, but you were just turned on by a bloke.
Stop touching yourself.

Vinegar and Milk
I know, just the thought of it makes you drool. What a winning combination.

Gaaahhhh
I look at this site and drool.. not because I love this style in particular, but because if I was living in the States I could get shoes that fit me just with a few clicks. In Japan I can’t find them at all. Every time I go to the UK/States, I have to spend at least one day of the vacation just looking for the next year’s supply of shoes!
