I'm not surprised it's there, but you accidentally running across it is like when McDad accidentally slipped and fell on that traffic cone.

In his defense it is amazing what pops up if you scroll down through the "suggestions" for other YouTube videos. Don't know if that is the future of AI, or if my mind just isn't supple enough to grasp the connections; but I can't figure out what applying peel off tattoos in intimate areas to has at all to do with music videos, funny animals, or live cams at airports and such.

... on the other hand, when I tried to open the video, YouTube wouldn't show it unless I logged in and verified my age - so maybe they've put a Band-Aid on it. And, no, I didn't log in.

Half the dudes here might not watch it bro i was just kidding. I am also probably a bit naive when it comes to social media. I didnt think stuff like that was on youtube though. I am not even on Bookface though...aside from VN the only social media I use is watching videos on YT and occasionally checking out stuff about football etc on twitter. I dont think theres explicit stuff on twitter either? But not sure about that. People are so weird these days I dont go searching for stuff...you can't "unsee" things unfortunately.

I just learned there is a "National licenseplate reader program" on interstates including I-40 that constantly records drivers plates as we go about our lives? The police used it to prove this guy drove to CA from OH to kill his mom...check out these screenshots. I feel like thats complete BS and an invasion of our privacy man.

Didn't know that, but I'm certainly not surprised. Ever wonder if Big Brother just watches us here, or contributes sometimes to get us to lower our guard so we wind up on a subversive list?

McRib likes to travel. I get to be her escort. Lol.

Family trip to Japan. Celebrating college and HS graduation of our sons.

Tahoe is anniversary trip. Wouldn't be surprised if McRib goes to Reno to shoot dice. I'll likely hike and simply enjoy the majesty of nature.

Flight to Japan is 6 to 8 hours. Not looking forward to that part.

Where are you going? Pretty sure you'll have a great time. To me Tokyo is the only city I'd choose to live in. The Hiroshima/Kure/Miyajima and Kyoto are areas not to be missed. I spent a lot of time on the western coast near nuclear plants - it's much more rural with less English spoken, but you get a sense of the other Japan, too. If you can, try to get to some of the less traveled areas. The difference is like someone coming to the US and going to NYC and other cities and thinking he has seen the US. My favorite will always be Okinawa, but the Japanese have worked hard to turn that into their own version of Hawaii since reversion, so it's not the more sedate country area that it used to be. Being from this part of the country, I tend to see country and small town living as something to be treasured rather than considered backward.

My daughter and son-in-law who spent six weeks there last year are coordinating our travel. I've requested to have a mix of urban and rural areas. But I am really looking forward to it.
There are many characteristics and traits of the Japanese that I really admire and would love to see America adopt. And like any culture there are some not so great things. But I'm focusing on the good and the incredible experience that's ahead of us.

You have to let McRib decide you need to go to Tahiti ... really the other islands like Moorea and Bora Bora. I'm generally ready to come home from vacations - that never happened there.
