After you watch this


You realize how much cinema has turned into crap.

You realize how cluttered the most sparsely furnished room in your house is.

I just snorted tea out of my nose, I laughed so much at that.
Thanks.

Ha ha, good one!

OP, relax.

It was a bit of exaggeration, but Japanese houses do have a LOT of open space, especially in the tatami rooms. We lived there for three years and it was a very stark difference.

It's funny, I did actually think that while watching this.

I realized how bored I would be living back in those days just waiting around for something to happen with no other source of entertainment. Oh someone wants to commit suicide in the courtyard? Event of my life!

reply

Yeah, I don't understand why they made such a big deal about someone requesting to commit suicide in their courtyard.

That's no great thing. I fielded 5 such requests last week alone.

You wouldn't be bored. Boredom is a construct of the modern ADHD generation that needs to be entertained 24/7. You would be adjusted to how things were in those days and wouldn't know what you were missing. Life would mostly consist of waking up at sunrise, work all day (or hunt for food and/or a job) and sleep when the sun goes down.
