    I’m currently in Japan and visited Kyoto and the bamboo grove a few days ago. Tourists here are such shitheads. Because the Japanese yen is so low, traveling to Japan suddenly became very accessible and brought in all kinds of shitheads that have no idea what courtesy or basic human decency is.

      Tourists not knowing courtesy or basic human decency isn’t restricted to any economic class. Japanese tourist hotspots have suffered from this since forever.

        I’m in Japan right now and the country is being overrun (I’m part of the problem). When I lived here a decade back every place was so much calmer.

        And I do see a lot of shitty behavior, but I can’t say if it’s more.

          I mean that makes sense; realistically a weaker yen will lead to more tourists going to Japan. What I’m saying is that Japan’s problem is more tourists, not worse tourists, which is what the parent comment implies.

            No that’s not what I was implying, but I see how it can be interpreted that way.

            What I meant was that more people will mean more assholes in general.
