That's only because they have the arguably dismissable ability to survive a nuclear holocaust.

Wait, what am I saying? RUN!!!!

Death can't find them, they all look alike.

If you add the Russians living in Japan, the number actually drops to 79.

The japanese have it all figured out. Rice, fish, saki,strange cartoons, lots of whores in schoolgirl outfits, and feeling girls up in the subway will help you live longer. I'll buy into that.

Must be the tea.

= Asshat american "nutritionists" don't understand the first thing about salt and sodium in the diet.

They eat sqirmy things

three words:
bukkake! bukkake! bukkake!

Why was this reported in a newspaper from Grimsby?

I wonder if any of them can remember the glorious victory of the Tsushimi Straits

meditation tastes goooood.

seaweed, too

Three cheers for being half japanese.

/insert "nereny's" here.

Funny, I immediately was wondering about the Japanese that aren't in Japan.

Must be all that "sweet tea"...no wait, thats rednecks.

probably be a lot more 100+ year olds if we hadn't nuked them...........twice

Of course none of this has to do with inflating your true age by 12 or 15 years, in an attempt to avoid military conscription in that bit of unpleasantness sixty or seventy years ago.

crazyeddie, are you having a problem avoiding redundancy and the tendency to repeat yourself?

No, I am not being redundant, and I am not repeating myself. There are other types of "salt" besides Sodium.

Plus, I am not repeating myself, and I am not being redundant.

Thanks, Grammar Nazi.

Why should we get excited about a bunch of assholes who were adults when Japan pulled their little stunt.

Japan's large elderly population is actually not a good thing as it places a great strain on the medical infrastructure

Well yes... but that's because they get the benefit of dog years from all that canine in their diet.

"probably be a lot more 100+ year olds if we hadn't nuked them...........twice"


And who says the radiation didn't help them get to 100+?

I guess living longer makes up for having small feet. Me, I'll keep my big feet.

Must be all the radiation we sent their way. Turned 'em into Super-Japs.

Willard Scott will have to work overtime.

Two things:

1. They are smaller than most. Just like how small dogs live longer than large breeds humans also do that too. Thus the phrase "little old ladies."

2. Genetics. It is probably 90% of your life expectancy. Not much to discuss here.


Getting all poliitcal about the food you eat is bull, because if you eat Japanese and Chinese food you will find it often as fattening as everywhere else. It is not the fish either. IT IS GENETIC PEOPLE. Don't read into it. Tiny people with long lasting genetics. TA DAAAA!

You really are a Crazy Eddie, you repeat yourself insisting you are not repeating yourself. Priceless.

Yeah, nuked 'em twice. Wonder why it came to that. They were just sittin' over there, minding their own business when BLAM!

Besides, Japan has 20.5k centenarians with about 130 million people. America has anywhere from 60-78k with 284 million. (Well, more like 310 million or so if you accept estimates of uncounted populace.)

Goddamn you half-Japanese girls
do it to me every time
oh, the redhead said you shred the cello
And I'm jello, baby
But you won't talk, won't look, won't think of me
I'm the epitome of Public Enemy
Why you wanna go and do me like that?
Come down on the street and dance with me

I'm a lot like you so please Hello, I'm here, I'm waiting
I think I'd be good for you and you'd be good for me

I asked you to go to the Green Day concert
You said you never heard of them
-How cool is that?-
So I went to your room and read your diary:
"watching Grunge leg-drop New-Jack through a press table..." and then my heart stopped:
"listening to Cio-Cio San fall in love all over again."

How stupid is it? I can't talk about it
I gotta sing about it and make a record of my heart
(How stupid is it? Won't you give me a minute
Just come up to me and say hello to my heart) How stupid is it?
For all I know you want me too and maybe you just don't know what to do or maybe you're scared to say: "I'm falling for you"
I wish I could get my head out of the sand 'cuz I think we'd make a good team
and you would keep my fingernails clean
but that's just a stupid dream that I won't realize
'cuz I can't even look in your eyes without shakin', and I ain't fakin'
I'll bring home the turkey if you bring home the bacon.

To quote an Ozzy song

Then thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb
Thank god for the bomb

Nuke ya nuke ya

20,000 Japanese in Japan agree; 100 is 100.

"Why should we get excited about a bunch of assholes who were adults when Japan pulled their little stunt."

That there just gave me a good 2-3 minutes of unadulterated guffawing. Thanks.

better tell those 20,000 about the atkins diet.... all that rice in their diet is bad for them

Still dutifully manning their remote Pacific island outposts. Somebody tell them the war is over.

Have you ever eaten /REAL/ japanese food? I mean not the crap you get in hibachi places... That's American Japanese food. Real japanese food is actually pretty good for you. Lots of rice Lots of fish... And just remember... Tempura is an american invention.

Same goes with chinese food. Most of the crap you can get in the US is fried in oil and is made for americans to enjoy...

well, they don't eat grease-fried fat all day every day.

"Well yes... but that's because they get the benefit of dog years from all that canine in their diet"

Come on, everyone knows that's the Koreans. If you're going to be ignorant enough to racially stereotype, at least use the right one :)

This is why Japan's economy is on the verge of collapsing on itself. People live so long that jobs are nearly impossibly to find, and the cost of paying for these elderly peoples' retirement is enormous.

the smaller your penis is the longer you live. sorry black people.

I think it's something to do with all of the pickled food myself...
