Fried Chicken and Sushi 344 Japanese people are so quiet. Most of the time!

I know that people everywhere are usually quiet on the subway but they seem quieter to me in Japan.  Going to the movies there would shock me because people would sit so stiff and wouldn't react to anything going on on screen!  Anytime Japanese people had to express "emotions" it would always be through shouting out at the top of their lungs!  Does anyone out there know why? 

Fried Chicken and Sushi 252 What English do Japanese students really learn?

First, the shameless plug.  PLEASE BUY MY GRAPHIC NOVEL HERE!  A horror adventure written and illustrated by me!  Yay!  You'll be helping to support this comic and me at the same time!  Thank you!

Next, today's comic.  This one really happened!  In fact the latest one took place this summer while I was visiting Japan.  Any of you that follow me on Twitter probably heard about it!  I was walking down the street and a group of boys shouted out "F$%k you!" to me and then laughed.  Part of me wanted to walk over to them and start shouting at them in English.  The other part of me knew that these boys lived in the same town that I'm staying in with my wife and her family.  So, I chose to just keep walking and pretend like I didn't hear them.  Not as satisfying but I think it was a better choice.
