Guest joshier Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 whys it always japan? is it because of goverment suppression or just because the 'random factor' increases with more people as it logically would in a country?

I dunno - I was expecting to read that, but the closest I found that indicated (or the opposite) was that he was "careful not to touch her private parts" when buckling her into the backseat of his car, and the fact that he has to get new covers since they "wear out" and "get dirty" through usage... You know he's humping the SHIT outta that pillow Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide all signatures Follow WATMM on Twitter: @WATMMOfficial Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/47692-a-man-in-love-with-his-pillow/#findComment-1091966 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr_Nova Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 When I was a kid I had fondness for one of my blankets similar to that I'd have for a pet... but we never did it or anything. It was purely platonic. Then one night I put it over a lamp to dim the light and accidentally burned two holes through it. Our relationship was never the same.

Yes, because people in America or England never do crazy things. Also, Japan is not huge on government suppression. That's China you're thinking of. It's just a little bit to the west.
