I feel like Japan would be fun to visit but the fear of watching some guy kill himself or getting hit by a tsunami make me not want to stay.

That last one, similar thing done in America building early sky scrapers. Would forge rivets on sight and toss them to you as you worked.

I watched a show where a Japanese artisan made steel tailors' sheers by hand, with no mold. Every pair was exactly the same size & shape.
AllYourPeppermintAreBelongToMe
There is an old-timey video on YouTube of a potter fashioning huge water jugs. Same thing! They're always the exact same size and shape!

The entire culture revolved sans revolves around aestheticism, ofc they're going to be damn near impeccable at their job. It's their bushido

Japan is the BEST. The US could learn so much but xenophobes suck. And toilets? Heated, cooled, with privacy noise, music, scents. Awesome.
Silvercypher
Don't forget the hidden cameras in some of those toilets and bathrooms.lol
Gatorjon
Are you saying xenophobia is preventing Japanese culture from influencing US culture?
Immutablespellingderp
The older Japanese generation(s) are quite xenophobic, unfortunately.

You can blame the British for that.

Look at Japanese art before the British came over. Everything was porn! The Brits then came along with their puritan ideals and ruined it.

For anyone interested look into 'Shokunin' , masters of assorted traditional Japanese crafts. Tons of various documentaries etc out there

When people respect their craft... Or are lethally afraid of the shame of failing? Or both?

@DemmyDemon I guess this is quite nice to wake up to~ It must be in their blood to be professionals at everything they do ;3
bradthebran
It almost seems like the people there keep 1 job their whole life and become insanely good at it.
AllYourPeppermintAreBelongToMe
In Japan, many crafts are still passed on from father to son(s), so many tradesmen have learned their skill from prior ancestors.
owliekit
Things in Japan seem so chaotically choreographed... I want to visit so badly.
Lurkingoff
So that's how they make the toilet paper at my work.

No, this is the master cut, they need to section the slice into 0.5 micrometer slices.

Lucky. We have these 3 seashells. No clue what to do with them.
redshadow1000
Use two seashells like chopsticks to pull the shit out, use third to scrape off any excess shit clinging to your ass

Oh, we had those at my old job. what I wound up doing is just buying a turkey baster and bringing it to work so I can give myself a bidet.

When my mother was a teacher in Japan from '79-'80, she said you could tell a hairdresser to cut off only 2mm, and they would.

VVulf
Hair cut in Japan was amazing experience. Former military and still wore a "high and tight", barber did with scissors only.
AllYourPeppermintAreBelongToMe
That takes some serious skill and practice!
Cecilrt
Had a haircut in Australia from a salon that hired travellers holy fuck... we don't tip i Australia but I thought I should of later 20 or so
UserJace
In Japan I asked a lady to take my hair down to about 2mm and I discovered in bad translation that's all she was taking off. Dedicated!
stardustbunnnies
Whereas here one inch somehow means four... *rolls eyes*

They have hairdressers that understand measurements? wow!
Mumbles0225
I don't know why you're so downvoted. I learned to cut my own hair JUST because every hair dresser fucked up measurements for me.
Mumbles0225
I understand.
stardustbunnnies
Agreed

Two millimeters is about the distance on a comb, uncultured swine
Muttons1337
That's a tiny comb!
TemporaryUzername
that is one of the dumbest things i've ever read on here. ask an american barber to take off 1/16th and you'd get approx. the same result.
TheUnsolicitedDuckPic
Hey everyone. Don't bother going through the rest of this thread. @TemporaryUzername is Jim Jeffries definition of a cunt.
AllYourPeppermintAreBelongToMe
No, it's not. I've had several hairdressers. Some listened to what I wanted. Some took off 5" or more when I asked for 2-3" tops.
TemporaryUzername
And did your mother put every Japanese hairdresser to see if they were within the 2mm spec? don't be ridiculous.
AllYourPeppermintAreBelongToMe
Might've missed the point.
TemporaryUzername
no you made a blanket statement that says nothing about japan itself- more so about certain individuals who do good work. generalization.
TubaBandito
I've given specific clipper settings and they've messed up. I'm soooooo glad my cousin works in a salon now. No dice rolling
MantisTobagganMD
But why would you get a haircut for such a rodiculously small amount? Throwing money out the window

What if your bangs need a trim? You wouldn't want to cut off a large portion...
MantisTobagganMD
If you ask someone to cut 2mm off your bangs....christ....
GapingAnalCavity
There is such a thing as overspecialization. If a moron and a machine can do the job of 50 craftsmen, the moron wins.
Billtcm
"overspecialize, and you breed in weakness. It's slow death."
pomax
Maybe, but this is not one of those cases. This is just one of the many skills a Japanese master carpenter needs to have under their belt.
SpendifferousLeo
Unless the moron fucks up with the machine. I mean look at us versus Japanese cars.

They have a game show where men get blowjobs from the sex they are NOT attracted to. The goal is to not orgasm. Look it up
