Don't get me wrong, it's just that I have never really seen an American verbally attack someone else on a blog or a board. And, it was kinda stupid what I said about not knowing what other countries are obsessed with. What I was trying to say was that you don't really know sh*t about a country until you live there and observe its people. I can say, the Japanese are obsessed with Anime and wierd porn... But do most Japanese really like them? I can not say "yes" for sure, however someone from Japan probably could based on their understanding of their own people.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ironeyes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 3rd 2008 2:38AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toyota develops rear-collision airbag]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/toyota-develops-rear-collision-airbag/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/toyota-develops-rear-collision-airbag/</guid><description><![CDATA[@Ironeyes<br><br>stop being so unbelievably wrong.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[konshuss]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 2nd 2008 12:26PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Toyota develops rear-collision airbag]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/toyota-develops-rear-collision-airbag/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/02/toyota-develops-rear-collision-airbag/</guid><description><![CDATA[Anyway, it's not a japan only car.

If it was some sort of horse shoe-shaped collar, I wouldn't be so quick to call BS, but this just looks like a joke.
