I heard that a Japanese person who spends a combined time of 5 days in the rain without an umbrella without dying due to a cold grows a second tail and gets eternal life.


This doesn't apply to us?

No, it's different for each nationality. In America you have to have a spotless and neatly trimmed lawn and keep all kids and kids toys off of it for 10 years straight then you get a rocking chair bestowed from the heavens and as long as you stay connected to it most of the day you will not die. That's why old guys are always yelling to get off their lawn.

How many people born in the 19th century are still alive?

Sad to know they will probably be extinct within the next decade

It makes perfect sense,and it's probably like this in Brazil too.

Five people born in the 1800s are still with us - and they're all women. Three of these supercentenarians live in the United States.

I think you're thinking of China, but in 117 years, she just has to have tried it at least once~


An average Chinese person does not eat dog. Dog meat is a delicacy and it is more or less an acquired taste similar to stinky tofu in beijing and durians in hong kong.

On a side note, why is the eating of dog meat illegal? We eat chickens and pigs, but is it because dogs are cute so therefore we shouldn't eat them? Why don't we consider pigs cute?

Don't the South Korean eat dogs too? I'd swear they even have a special breed of dogs meant for consumption.

japanese are eating healthy thats how they break age records but at thesame time there are many japanese that dies from overwork there so i doubt she will live that long if she work for the long working hours in the anime industry for example


However, the law is about to be changed to give vacation time to Japanese workers so lifespans for the average office lady and salaryman will increase.

And the amount of anime produced will also dwindle?

Anime is good, fucking deal with it.

If that's the case, we Maldivians would be competing with them. Almost all our dishes (that aren't sweet) have fish.

I guess if you are surrounded by ocean it would logically follow so I'm not surprised.
