They have vending machines where you can buy used panties.
Haha yeah there are some, but they are illegal. Yes, there is a law specifically for that
I didn't mean to say that they aren't weird at all, because they
definitely have their quirky things. Very much so. I just think it's a bit sad when people think that they're just a bunch of crazy people, just because all they've seen from Japan was the craziest, most extreme of the weird that can come from them.
It's pretty easy nowadays, with the internet and whatnot, to forget what the majority really is like. We are bombarded all the time by things, and if people want to catch our attention they go for the extreme, since the mundane is just "meh" to our attention. Not that it's good or bad, it's just the truth we live in right now!
...okay, I'm removing the serious hat and going back to play with toy ponies now.
