I think his point is that the fish got low balled, fucked in the catfish asshole and you paid half price. The worst part was the fish explaining to his fish friends why his asshole smelled like redneck
Theft in Japan is almost unheard of. The Japanese crime rate is very low in general, I think for two reasons.
First, their culture. Crime in general is dishonorable. As modern as they are, they still have many traditional values, especially those that are important for such a jam-packed nation to be able to get along with each other. Case in point...I always rode my bike to the train station, it was a $700 mountain bike. It was never once locked at the train station and it was never once tampered with in any way.
I went on a short deployment and left it on base and thoroughly locked up. Two months later, I come back to find everything that could be removed to be gone. A bunch of dependent children were apparently stealing everything on base that wasn't welded to the earth's core. My point: The crimes committed by Japanese make up a very low per-capita number, it's the foreigners that commit a disproportionally high amount of it.
Second, Japanese jails are very unpleasant. They can hold you for up to 21 days without pressing charges. All time spent in jail or prison is hard labor and you generally only get fish scraps, rice and green tea/water for meals.
"It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."
Japan is 98% Homogeneous ethnic japanese. They have strong strong historical ties towards staying unified in the face of outsiders, from ancient japan to the Shogunate to the modern age.
Lots of good : Low crime, strong values , unified culture with little open strife, strong economy
Lots of Bad: Superiority complex, having the rest of asia hate them for war crimes, one of the most rapidly aging and shrinking populations in the world.
The piracy rate is the total number of units of pirated software deployed in 2007 divided by the total units of software installed.
Now this is surprising.
