"The notion that we are turning into Japan"

1. There are more sushi places around than you can shake a dead mackerel at.

2. Easier access to mass quantities of truly disturbing pornography.

3. Massive real estate losses.

4. Cartoons becoming more and more like anime, and girls trying to use makeup to look like anime freaks.

Our country is truly "turning Japanese."

Of course we would have to carve a moat around the entire country and make some sort of effort to keep out all the furreners if we really wanted to follow that path.

"anime freaks."

I confess...I had to look that up. I must be getting old.
