Perpetual Motion

If You Stop Moving, You May Die

"Why isn't there anywhere to sit down?"  tired gaijin

If you look closely, you will notice that the only people not in motion in Japan are the following people:
  • Smokers huddled around an ashtray
  • A bum
  • Teenagers hanging out outside a convenience store or public park (sometimes smoking)
  • A completely lost and confused person
  • Someone taking a picture
  • An elderly citizen sitting on a park bench
  • People asleep in public (which is actually quite common)


Yep, that's about it.





Why? I have no idea why. Welcome to Japan.  Japan has a point A to point B mentality. In other words, haul ass from point A to point B because everyone does it and if you don't you are a lazy sloth.
