The one about the government giving small towns a million dollars to "revitalize" their localities, one of the most successful examples was a town on Awaji Island spending it all to get a gold brick worth a million dollars, one solid gold bar, and allowing the public to come and touch it. It was a massive success. They had to end it in 2009 though because they were renting the gold bar from Mitsubishi Materials with the million dollar as a deposit, and the price of gold kept going up, so they had to keep increasing the deposit to keep the gold bar, and in 2009 they couldn't keep up with the rising cost and had to return it.

Copper has antimicrobial properties that can inhibit the growth of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and micro-algae. Copper's antimicrobial properties are due to copper irons, which destroy the cell membrane of microorganisms. The survival time of bacteria and viruses on copper surfaces varies depending on the alloy, but can range from a few minutes to two hours. The higher the copper content of the alloy, the faster the microorganisms are killed.

This is all true, but it would only kill the microbes in the part of the shoe and sock the coin was touching and have no effect on the rest of the shoe, its microbes, or the odor.

History student who studies Japanese meat-eating customs here! So, the "meat prohibition" in Japan actually goes back a long way, to an Imperial edict in 675CE and many subsequent ones. The bans were often seasonal and applied to different types of animal differently, with domesticated quadrupeds (cows, horses) receiving the most protection. Enforcement also varied wildly. The factors behind the bans are somewhat debated, but the three big issues were Buddhism's prohibition on taking life, Shinto's taboo on making contact with blood and dead bodies, and insufficient grazing land in mountainous Japan meaning that what few draught animals there were needed to be preserved for ploughing rice fields. Meat-eating (mostly of game like boars and deer) continued as a minor part of the diet, and was especially associated with boosting health to recover from illness in winter months. So the game shops weren't being completely dishonest, but it did serve as a kind of cover story even when people weren't actually sick. On the issue of beriberi, it's actually a really interesting story. Takaki is well-remembered for reducing rates (which were up to 40% of the navy in the 1880s!) trialing different rations, but the medical establishment actually rejected his ideas and refused to implement his solution for decades, costing many lives. He couldn't explain exactly why his diet changes cured the disease, and it wasn't until the late 1920s that thiamine deficiency was identified. Most of the elite doctors in Japan were German-educated and believed Beriberi must be caused by a bacterium like TB, which Koch had identified in the early 1880s.

I'm from the US and my mother threw a party for my older sister to celebrate her first period. She invited all her friends and all of our female family members and it was hilariously bad. She made red velvet cupcakes and she and our aunts made her a little book filled with tips and hacks for dealing with periods - upon reflection, that book was actually really cool and a really sweet idea. It listed a bunch of the bogus myths, best cramping cures, (salt and cold water ftw!), stuff like that. My sister didn't speak to Mom for a week afterwards. When my time came, I learned from my sister's experience and just didn't tell my mom that I'd started, and when it finally came out that I had indeed started, I'd already had like three periods by then, so she missed the opportunity for another period party, lol. Although, looking back on it, considering how my sister reacted and the week long cold-shoulder she got afterwards, I really don't think Mom would have forced a party on me anyway.

When I was much younger my mom told me that my friend’s (kinda “crunchy” if you get the drift) mom held such a party for when she had her first period. My mom framed it as something embarrassing so I agreed easily. Now, over two decades older, I see it a little differently. My first time I didn’t tell my mother(and I’m the eldest with a younger sis). Which kinda lead to my first try with tampons, no guidance, ending horribly and giving up on them for years. Looking back, I wish I’d had some older women to give me advice, even if I was embarrassed initially. That said, I can see a “subtle” announcement to the whole family of it occurring being a bit much.

There's nothing much on the other side, you kinda just pay a few bucks to walk across and back - the canyon and the reservoir below are pretty nice though. I went for their Koinobori Matsuri, which was quite alright. There's some bungee jumping and a few other Matsuri throughout the seasons. I guess free government money totally explains how that came to be lol. It's also still really popular, too, which is truly astonishing seeing all those creepy disused playgrounds and abandoned theme parks that didn't share the same fate.

About the clapping routine. If we put up the metronome and start to count how many claps came up each metronome tick, then it's 3 claps on every tick, except the last one, which is one clap. If you do it at 140 and don't go out of sync, then you have a pretty good rhythm. The metronome setup is standard 4/4(four beats per measure/four bars).

I'm Swedish but I live in Aichi with my husband. The only reason I knew about the "Japanese days of the week" is frankly because I'm currently pregnant with my first child and I went down a rabbit-hole with Japanese pregnancy traditions where I learned about "Inu no hi" or "dog's day". For those that don't know; this is a specific day in your 5th month of pregnancy where you're supposed to visit a shrine where a priest will bless you and expel any demons or evil from your body in order to ensure a safe continued pregnancy and birth (the reason for the "dog" is because dogs are known for having speedy, safe and uncomplicated labor). If i remember correctly, these days occur every 12 days throughout the year and of course Taian is the day that most pregnant women hope to land on and will also be the busiest days for these blessings. I read that some of the most popular temples will have people waiting for hours for their blessing, even on a "regular" inu no hi, but especially on Taian. There was no Taian in my 5th month of pregnancy so we went on a regular day and were told by the temple (my husband called beforehand) that we could expect to wait for at least an hour or maybe longer, depending on when we arrive. Our temple is actually closely associated with Ieyasu Tokugawa so it's obviously a very popular one as well, so we decided to head there first thing in the morning when they opened. It was raining like crazy that day, but the place was still packed. I believe we had to wait for roughly an hour before it was our turn - I don't doubt for a second that we would have had to wait even longer if we had come later in the day. I can't even imagine how busy that place would get during Taian. I have a couple of weeks more to go (I'm due at the end of summer) but I guess I should start preparing for baby's first sumo-wrestling, haha. Actually, I just told my husband yesterday that I feel like a sumo-wrestler these days hobbling around with my giant stomach so it made me chuckle when you mentioned baby-sumo.

The thing with the escalator also happens in Canada, or at least I’ve seen it happen where I’m from (I live in Toronto, in the northern parts of Scarborough). Some times when I use the escalator in the subway station I tend to see this happen, there’s always that one group of friends that doesn’t respect the line though.

oh i heard about the morning call stuff before, it was some guy who gets up really early to go out on fishing trawlers making extra money on the side since he was already up so early

Escalators: Kyoto used to be different too, in that people just didn't walk on escalators. That changed though, probably a contagion carried on the shinkansen... But it might come back, because subway and trains companies, in Tokyo as in Kyoto, urge people to stop walking on escalators completely (and thus, no point in leaving an empty lane).

Regarding the services of job-quitting agencies: it was reported by Europeans visiting Japan in the 16th century and early Edo period that using intermediaries for possibly contentious situations was very popular. Even couples would do it, as would parents and children.

Never get tired of these strange facts

Regarding the one about Toriyama not using assistants, I assume this is referring to the comics. (Toriyama obviously didn't animate all of the cartoons himself. That would be impossible.) It is common for comic artists (mangaka) to use assistants in Japan, as they have to work a lot faster and generate more content than their American counterparts. With the not knowing the origin of tonkotsu, I experienced something similar. Most people just assumed that all of the foreign loan words used in Japanese came from English. For example, "pan" (bread) is from Portuguese and "arbeit" (part time job) comes from German. But everyone assumed I would automatically know what those words meant since I spoke English.

Here is one that I found out recently. "Rucksack". You get this image of a large hiking backpack right? Actually, that's exactly what the English equivalent is. I was confused when all the Japanese would call a normal backpack a "rucksack" and was a bit annoyed at this mistranslation. Or was it a mistranslation? Silly me remembered the German word for backpack, it's "Rucksack". I immediately asked my Dutch friend, from where many Japanese loan words come from. It's indeed very similar to "rucksack", and thus, knowing such was the cure for the annoyance.
