    Is this some code I'm missing, or just small talk?

    The girl is Thai, I assume? Doesn't mean there's nothing behind it, but if she's Thai, that's how they say "How's it going?"

    Are there any PC shops in Tokyo that sell American-made gaming laptops?

    I got an Alienware laptop from Dell Japan a bit over 5 years back. They had the best customization options overall, and weren't excessively over priced. Alternatively, Mouse Computer has built-to-order laptops, and were on par with DELL overall, but didn't have an English keyboard at the...

    International Banking

    I've been sending money to the UK every month for the last couple years with Transferwise and never had any issues. Money arrives same day about 50% of the time and next day 50% of the time... so it's super fast... Plus you'll get slaughtered on exchange rates using any conventional...

    Filipino Places?

    I met my Filipina girlfriend on Bumble. Seems to be a lot of non-Japanese Asians using it. Quite a few Filipinas using Badoo as well, and a friend of mine has met a number of them off Tinder...

    Love Hotel Question

    I stayed at J Mex in Shinjuku for 2 nights lately and no issues with leaving for a while. We went in one night, then left for a few hours in the day and asked them to do a clean up, then came back no problem. Popped out a couple times to run to the store and such as well, they just give a...

    AF Asian Feeling/Relax

    I think it's pretty good, the girls earn far more than they could at any other job... other than full on fuzoku, and even then - the rates at something like Thai Mild are so low, I wonder if the girls there even earn as much as the AR girls? At least a couple girls left from delivery health...

    AF Asian Feeling/Relax

    Not really your fault. She made the offer on not-so-great advice from someone there. I believe you were the only one she offered it to that one time. Not sure, I don't know her myself, my info comes from someone else at the shop and I wasn't inclined to dig too deep. It was very few...

    AF Asian Feeling/Relax

    Sorry to bump a slightly older thread, but it seemed like a worthwhile bit of information here. Claire was fired yesterday for doing this. The owner just found out and she was let go. Not to fault the OP on this, since it was offered by her and not asked for... but people ought to be aware...

    Tokyo beauties

    Assuming you don't speak Japanese, your options are going to be fairly limited. The simplest one you could default to is Asian Feeling / Asian Relax in Shinjuku, as they'll be happy to serve you even if you don't speak Japanese. Also the girls there are pretty attractive (Thai) ... whether...

    Food / restaurant app in Japan

    Not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, but a pretty useful thing that I use all the time is ロケスマ ... no English version, and it doesn't give reviews or ratings or anything, but you can use it to find restaurants, convenience stores, grocery stores, etc etc. It only has chain...

    Massage at Olive

    I went to Olive a bit over a month ago and got Nana as well. My experience was pretty similar. Nice lady, great body for her age, and quite friendly and huggy. I was ok with her massage and stomping around on me, but then you could probably use a jackhammer on my back before I asked to...

    Non-smoking Asian restaurants in Shinjuku?

    So I don't really know the "hot spots" at all, and I've been going crazy trying to find something .. what's killing me is I'm only looking for nonsmoking places, which pretty much knocks out 90% of places. I'm looking for a half decent Chinese or Thai place in Shinjuku, preferably north/east...

    Giving gifts?

    I don't bring anything the first time I go to a place, though they're just massage places... but I always bring my regulars a small pack or two of nice truffles or the like. Not sure how many gifts the massage girls get... but they always seem happy to get chocolate. I brought my usual...

    Plush toys?

    Yeah, I actually was thinking to go there originally, since it's huge ... somehow I thought the Ikebukuro one would be comparable, but not at all. Next time!

    Plush toys?

    Thanks! I figured Akihabara would have some decent options, though I was just going through Ikebukuro and Shinjuku. Almost all the places I see with toys just have brand things basically. I never remembered seeing any general stuffed animals or things like that. Ended up trying Kiddy...

    Plush toys?

    Would anyone happen to know a decent place to find stuffed/plush animals in Shinjuku? I checked Don Quixote there previously, but it had nothing to speak of. I'm currently thinking to pop by Kiddy Land or maybe Tokyu Hands in Ikebukuro, but I kind of figured they'd largely be 'branded'...

    Okachimachi Thai Jaidee

    I haven't personally been here, but it's one of the places I was vaguely eyeballing in the Okachimachi area. Some semi recent Japanese reviews (at least from this year) indicate the shop is fairly standard fare. Shower/massage/HJ. Girls are slightly older (30s), and service was standard...

    Canadian Liberal Party to debate decriminalisation of consensual sex work

    Canada has actually been relatively lax on "harmless" illegal stuff for some time. I haven't lived there in years, so I don't know how different it became when they criminalized buying sexual services. (It's not criminal to sell services) ... but I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's...

    Debit cards

    Suruga has had a visa debit for quite some time. I had opened an account with them years ago just for that. Seems more banks are doing it lately, too. My main bank (SBI) just started it about 6 months ago. Nice to have, since I buy a lot of stuff online overseas. I think only once in...
