    Go Japan, show those Scottish pr1cks they should stick to making Whisky.

    The Japanese make fucking good whisky

    challenge: name something the Japanese make that isn't bloody good.

    Coffee. This is what happens when you learn pastry from the French, beer from Germans, whisky from Scots and coffee from Americans.

      An espresso is the only way to drink it; prevents them ruining it with whatever they do with the milk. That said I have on occasion found a small place hidden away that knew what they were doing.

      Not just limited to Japan either, I managed to find one good cup in Taiwan, same in Korea and none in China. That they're so rare is what makes me remember.

              I have no love for the sweaties but my preference is for Scotland to win by less than 7 pts without scoring 4 tries. Therefore they win but lose.

                  American company approaches a Japanese factory and asks them to make 1000 widgets with an acceptable faulty rate of 3 per 1000. The Japanese send them 1000 widgets and 3 they made faulty on purpose.

                    As long as Ireland beat Samoa today and pick up a bonus point, otherwise Japan will finish on top under this scenario. Ideal situation is for Ireland to pick up 5 points, Japan to pick up 1 and for Scotland to pick up 4. This way we will play Japan.

                    The forecast for Tokyo next Saturday is for heavy rain and strong winds. This will suit Ireland more than us so come on Scotland!

                      Yeah, I am assuming Ireland gets 5 pts against Samoa so top Pool A.

                          I don’t think that’s happening. I’m predicting a low-ish score.

                              Porn. Japanese porn is creepy and horrible. You can show a man raping a schoolchild, sure, but you have to blur out any genitals, because that's offensive?

                              I also thinks their comics and cartoons suck. But there does seem to be a small but vociferous group of opposite opinion.

                              I also have no music from Japan in my collection. Japanese music is mostly not very good -- even if you like bland pop, then K-Pop is better.

                                    I have no love for the sweaties but my preference is for Scotland to win by less than 7 pts without scoring 4 tries.

                                    One question.
                                    Why are Scotland called the sweaties?

                                    Rhyming slang ,sweatie sock =jock

                                    Still working on a rhyme for whining crybabies

                                      @Bovidae and @akan004 don't know why you would prefer the All Blacks play Japan in the QF's, that is not the talk of champions. We should be praying to play Ireland so we can get revenge for the last game!

                                        Rather take the easy route like SA in 07. Ireland could beat us, especially if it's wet.

                                          Probably because it’s easier to win two consecutive difficult games than 3
