You Earth peoples am HORRIBLE!

I *wanted* to sit down and figure out the ending for the current
Shampoo-arc of _Ranko 1/2_, but after reading this, I coldn't
concentrate, because at the back of my head I kept composing a fic
called "My vacation to Nerima".

I *might* even write it, once I get back from my *real* vacation
in merry ol' england (Discworld Con included).  If I do, and White
Wolf goes ahead with his plan to write something like this, too,
we could make a series of this.

A "What would happen if I came to Nerima" series!  That would show
'em.


"But I don't even speak Japanese!"
"These tickets cost money, son.  Get on that plane!"
"They didn't cost you a penny; *I* won them in a game!"
"That's why *you* go to Japan."


"Why is everybody carrying umbrellas, even though it's sunny?"
"Here, read the weather forecast for today in the newspaper"
"'Sunny and warm with almost cloudless sky over all of Japan -
 except, of course, for Nerima, Tokyo, where anything can
 happen.'  They mention this place in the national weather
 forecast?!"


And stuff like that. :)
