Many people have asked me "Josh, why did you travel all the way to Tokyo just for a game show?" I always tell them its for the games. But really, we all know why the majority of people go to the Tokyo Game Show each year.



Its sad but true.

"All the way to Tokyo"...heh. Japan ain't that big - going from just about anywhere to Tokyo would be like going to the Twin Cities from Mankato, distance-wise, no?

It was a 9 hour bus ride each way, and I`m not that far away compared to other places. Japan is decently sized, and very long. Chile isn:t a big country either, but its super long. Try checking out a map.

PLus I wasn`t in Tokyo just for the random babes at the expo, i was there to hang out in the city and with some friends. PLus the games were quite cool too.

Huh. Yeah, I guess it's about 1.5x as tall as MN - hadn't realized that.

Perhaps because they're not skanky hoes?

This is not skanky?


Bottom Line: Get some.

If you like to look, buy a magazine.

Not in my book. She looks like quite a sweetie (clue: it's in the eyes).

One has to question why all your methods of "getting some" involve paying for it.

See, she's advertising a game, not taking her clothing off for money. Good times to be had by all. Play new games, tons of swag, and lots of hot girls and cos-players. All for 1000¥ ($9) entrance fee.

Yeah, that's why I think it's stupid that people buy wedding rings.

No different then the dumb whores at car shows and electronic shows here. HD net broadcast live from CES this year and would interview them...NO clue what high def TV was, let alone the products for the booths they were standing in. I realize why they are there, but having HD net broadcast what we all knew was killer.

That, and the CES olympics including the HT Installer amplifier toss

this is the way I see it:

if you're not going to go through the old fashioned way of getting girls...

then pay for it. makes no sense to stare at video game show booth girls. i find nothing wrong with prostitution at all. if they have the right attitude, they can make a lot of money and have a great time (beats editing spreadsheets). what's the difference between a married woman having sex with her husband 3 times a day vs. someone charging for it — does that make her any less slutty? IMO — nope.

that's a lot of bodily fluids exchanged with strangers, even when using a condom. Yuck.
