An exercise in accent capture. Hopefully not too bad?
Yeah... Yeah, I went to Japan. And it was, it was awesome. Went to Kyoto, which was real beautiful... real beautiful. Nagasaki, too. Yeah. And Oh-sucker. Yeah, I didn't really, like Oh-sucker. Not really. It was just, it was so crowded, y'know what I'm saying? But yeah. Also went to Tokyo, and I was staying, at a hostel there, when I met this guy. I think his name was John, and he said he was some systems engineer. He was from Boulder. Colorado, and as a result, he spoke with this real slow drawl, you know? And he'd, like, emphasise certain words, and syllables, y'know?
Yeah. The first words this guy said to me, he says "Yeah... Japanese women are hot." I, I kind of hazarded, a guess as to just why, he was in Japan right then. Although, as it turned out, in the end, that guess, that was wrong. Yeah... I was talking at the time to this.. what's the? What's the doctor love? Austin Powers! This English Guy that was like, totally Austin Powers, to John. He'd been travelling for, like, two years, or something, and he had been talking about this Vietnamese girl he'd first met in, like, Thailand. or something, and then had like, seen her again in Vietnam, and she'd taken him on a tour of the place. And they'd stayed, in the same rooms, y'know? To save money. Yeah... John asked Austin if he'd, he'd had blue balls, which is like, you want to be in a different bed, and your balls, they're just getting bigger, and bluer. I dunno if this happens a lot in Boulder, Colorado... Yeah...
Anyway, this English guy, he leaves, y'know? And so, I'm talking to John, and he has this, like, talent. Any, you know, conversation about Japan, he's able to redirect it to the hotness, of Japanese women. Like, you know the- what's the? The Metro. Tokyo Metro, right? They're like, crowded with people. But also, sometimes people get tired, y'know? And sometimes, the Japanese women? they fall asleep on your shoulder. And, y'know, they're hot... Yeah.. By the by, this actually happened to me a couple, couple times. I. I can't say whether that's a testimony, to the comfort, of my shoulder, or their tiredness. Yeah... That's by the by. And we, we were talking about Japanese candy, and uh. I hate repeating this, y'know, but, the Japanese women, not only are they hot, they're like, sweet like candy, as well. Yeah...
Yeah. Thing. the thing bout John, we both seemed to have trouble believing, that he was 35, and married. He'd married a Japanese woman, who I assume, was hot, and they had this 2 year old son. Beautiful kid, face a mixture of *HCK HC HUCK*, oh man. Excuse me. *HCK HCKCK HCK*. Yeah. That reminds me, he had this, this cough, y'know? Like a cross, between hacking up a lung, and choking, y'know? Maybe choking, on his lung? Yeah, beautiful kid. His face was a mixture of Caucasian, and Asian, y'know? Yeah. But he was real concerned a- about him, cause he was gonna be a half-caste kid, in a Japanese school. And so he'd started, started teaching him Tae kwon do, so he could defend himself. Yeah. His wife, she didn't- she didn't like that, I think.
Turns out, yeah... Turns out he was staying in the hostel, while he was looking for a job. Though he seemed to spend a lot of his time, just walking around Tokyo. Yeah. He worries about his son, y'know? Yeah. But then, in other conversations, he already had a job. So, you don't know, like, what to think. He asked me if he could borrow five hundred yen. That's, like, five bucks, so, yeah I was like whatever. Yeah. He started calling me Mister Handsome after that. I dunno, it seemed like, a strange word to emphasise to me. Beautiful kid. Then he excused himself, to take a smoke.
We talked a bit, now and then, but y'know, there's like, only so much you can smile, and nod about how hot the women of a particular race are, y'know? And there were more enjoyable people around, y'know? Really, like, only three other things stick out. 5AM one morning, the phone in the room, it started to ring. And he got up, and like, answered it. And, I mean, the hatred in the room? it was like, palpable, or something. Yeah. It was his wife. Not, like, not wanting to eavesdrop? But it didn't seem like a real, loving relationship, y'know? "Of course, I love you," he mumbled into the reciever, "because you're beautiful." It wasn't the only time he, he had to tell her she was beautiful, either.
The next day, we'd gone to Akihabara. It's, like, electronic town, y'know? And, a lot of stores they have, they have these floors devoted, to. to. What's that? What's the manga porn? Hentai. Floors devoted to it, y'know? And we, we were talking about Akihabara, and it's awesome, yeah? Though thankfully not too much the hotness of the hentai. Then he was talking about his kid. Beautiful kid. He worries about him, y'know? And then his wife. Seems. *HCK HCKCK HCK*. Seems she'd called the hostel, asking if he'd been drinking. He asked me, d'you drink? A bit, I said. Just social. Yeah. He said. That's right, y'know? Just a bit, makes, makes you feel nice. Yeah. The next day, the day before he was going back, back home, he'd gotten, completely drunk. Yeah... A regular ol' drunk in the next bunk, y'know? I. I think we, we have different ideas, of a bit, y'know? And he, he was laughing. because he, he couldn't put on a shoe, y'know. There was a bunch of us in the dorm, talking. Apparently, we were funny, and made him laugh. He worries about his son, y'know?
My brother and me, we left the room early the next day. Never saw him again.
I'm sure he's, like, happy enough. A hot Japanese wife. Possibly a job. But it's, it's kinda depressing, y'know? Meeting people like that. In such a disastrous relationship. But I guess that's just part of travelling, y'know? Beautiful kid. Never did see my five hundred yen again.
