hey, im not one to shoot down allies in an online argument, but last thing i wanna do is look like i'm defending the USA. america DOES suck. its lifestyle is horrible and there are minimal opportunities for adequate exercise or proper nutrition compared to japan. the point i'm making is that someone's one-week vacation not going to reveal meaningful conclusions about those lifestyle differences. really I'm just defending basic research/statistical competency by calling out a stupid irrelevant comment that was probably just intended to shout out someone's vacation online than to contribute to any discussion on cultural differences between nations
