There are tons people who didn't qualify for unemployment, and people who've never had jobs that can't get one because they don't have a vagina (as rude as that is, retail places will hire girls more than guys simply because customers buy things as an excuse to flirt). So just like here in Michigan, the true unemployment number is more than double what the recorded percent is, simply because people aren't willing to train the new generation.
So you're saying that the lower number in Japan is misleading and actually represents higher unemployment than America's much-bigger number because... both countries calculate it exactly the same way? O.o I'm actually not sure if Japan does what we do and forgoes any sort of estimation, but I do know our unemployment benefits are way weaker than Japan's so there's much less of an incentive to file for unemployment in America.

Pogs were awesome! Also Tamagotchi's, alternative rock, Deep Space 9, and terrible, terrible comic books. I miss the 90's...

I feel about the same.

As far as the whole unemployment issue, I was thinking population percentage instead of total number of people.

And speaking of terrible comic books, you remember Valiant Comics? I've got four copies of Ninjak #1, and four copies of X-O Manowar #0.

RF: Woke up with a fever, it got worse over the day, painkillers were worthless. So to remedy my splitting head pain I said "the hell with this" and got drunk. Why did that work?

Are you okay??

Was it for a real crime? I heard random things like adultery are illegal in the Philippines.

It's an interesting tradeoff because you have to commit to one or the other. I had a supercold a few weeks ago and had to choose between alcohol, dayquil/nyquil, or severe liver damage. Ended up going with symptom relievers, they work really well for me.

If you look at the article, the percentage for Japan is less than half of ours...

AGGGGGGGGGGGH I have XO Manowar #0 and it's awesome, although I will concede it also sucks. But it's shiny. Valiant/Doctor Mirage ftw

I took my cousin to a party and waited for him, then I discharged my sidearm at some guys who grabbed my cousin as he was leaving the place, it turns put they were going to take him to some initiation, a cop heard it and had the gall to ask me for a bribe so he wpuld turn a blind eye, I was disgusted at that so I slapped him, he had me jailed for indiscriminate firing and "assault", I just called my captain to help me out amd he convinced the precinct to let me go or else he'll call the news stations, apparently they fear being lynched, and yes I'm fine, the only people in the cell were those who couldnt afford a bribe.

What's your preference for sidearm? I'm liking the .45 Walther P99AS lately.

Was randomly pissed off at the time I posted that. And I've been feeling like hell lately.

Random fact: I think I might just have an addiction to a certain BlazBlue... 'pairing'...

RF: I'm addicted to a certain duo of BB-related puppets! But that's not the same thing. I hope they put the Okinawa thing online. Maybe I should translate the puppet shows, they're really funny... I went from hating Rachel to being a diehard fan.

RF4: I am so angry at my dad for steeling my checks!>:( My bf is going to open a new bank account and hes going to put my name in it too that way my dad can stop steeling my checks and I can go get them cashed myself and actually get all of my money!

RF5: I can't wait to go home I am at scool right now and it sucks! XP I have to stay after too because I am in this program thingy and I really really wish I could go home but at last this prison must keep me here longer.

RF6: I think when I get home I am going to eat some nachos because we have nothing sweet to eat. ^_^
