Whenever I would give people this advice, they would tell me I was wrong. And some would even get insulted, tell me their family is of Japanese descent, or that they've been to Japan and they know it's not true. So I eventually gave up!

But at cheap sushi places, I am guilty of some of these faux pas myself.

OMG I want a glowy pig.

Pretty high up on the interesting scale.

From the page: "In Germany, the Berlin chapter of the American Jewish Committee protested a statement by Juergen Gansel, a state legislator and member of the extreme-right National Democratic Party. Gansel posted a statement titled "Africa conquers the White House."

According to AFP news service, Gansel asserted that Obama hopes to destroy America's "white identity" and that multiculturalists in America are trying to destroy other "pure" national identities. A Berlin newspaper referred to the White House as "Uncle Barack's Cabin," playing on the famous 19th century U.S. novel decrying slavery, Uncle Tom's Cabin. The editor told the German press that the headline was satirical."

From the page: "To this day, the willingness of a Wall Street investment bank to pay me hundreds of thousands of dollars to dispense investment advice to grownups remains a mystery to me. I was 24 years old, with no experience of, or particular interest in, guessing which stocks and bonds would rise and which would fall. The essential function of Wall Street is to allocate capitalâ€"to decide who should get it and who should not. Believe me when I tell you that I hadnâ€t the first clue. "

From the page: "I have developed a recurring fantasy of taking President Bush, grabbing him by the hair and slamming his face on his desk repeatedly while screaming, "Family values? I'll show you family values. I'm moving to Canada so I can afford to have a family." Hell hath no fury like a lioness without cubs. "
