(I mean I already shop on Amazon Japan somewhat regularly they just only ship internationally, i.e. to me, for media mail type stuff and shipping is... rather more. :V)

but I am bad at detailed opinionssssssssssssss ;_;

beer was good I liked the stout best but I like stouts anyway. =P I still don't really like IPAs it turns out but that one was okay enough and I'm glad for a chance to try a decent one since I hadn't in a while. :3

I had to deal with the post office lady deciding I couldn't speak Japanese (GAIJIN RIGHT) then trying to ask me about the contents in broken English (English EMS form so I wrote the contents in English) whilst I continued to speak Japanese because she couldn't understand my English explanation. She wasn't listening and was panicking then got her 'Hi my name is xxxxxx i can speak English' colleague with whom I had a pleasant conversation in Japanese (including but not limited to the contents of the package) with the original colleague listening in and looking very embarrassed. By the time I'd finished it had taken about an hour and the post office was past closing time, luckily they still took the parcels.

This is a recurring thing I've found, people just do not want to believe I can speak Japanese here lol

apart from one lady in melonbooks who gave me a bunch of free stickers because EEEEEEEEEEH? NIHONGO DEKIRU??? BIKKURISHIMASHITAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA

My shipping story: Costed me money. I found the recording of movies quite fun to be honest.

Also highly suspicious of Vic Viper rigging the pairing system to roll me as SS. I am not quite sure what he did to Reimu in order to make her HAXOR the list. Probably was one hell of a donation.

Wait, so while you actually were speaking in Japanese, she refused to speak back in Japanese and kept putting up English!? Why?

Confirming reactions/startle from natives is funny when you're obvious-gaijin-as-***** and respond to them in Japanese.
[*] Enter elevator with a couple > ask what floor they desire > BIKKURIIIIIII
[*] Hold the door open at some mountain cafe for pair of ladies, receive 'arigatou' as default answer > respond back with JP 'you're welcome' > BIKKURIIIIIII
[*] Walk around in Kamakura watching the statue, quad of female students suddenly say 'Herro *wave' > respond with JP 'Domo' > BIKKURIIIIII

The responses always take a certain pattern. First they are logically surprised. Followed by usually the phrase: "You speak Japanese!?" Eventually asking: "Where / why did you learn Japanese"
