No, but only because I had a gf(now wife) at the time.
My gf knew I was there, I was being a supportive friend to my buddy who’s gf broke up with him for another of our friends. Shit was messy…but at least we had a great night. He’d bought himself so many lapdances I got 2 freebies.
What the 99.9% Figure Actually Measures
The conviction rate tracks only cases where a prosecutor has formally indicted a defendant and brought the case to trial. It does not reflect the outcome of all police investigations, all arrests, or all cases referred to prosecutors. This distinction matters enormously. Japanese prosecutors decline to indict in roughly 60% of cases referred to them by police, meaning fewer than one in three cases that police hand off ever reaches a courtroom.1 The 99.9% applies only to that narrow slice of cases that survived the screening process.
This makes direct comparisons with other countries misleading. In the U.S. federal system, prosecutors indict more than 80% of referred cases, but over 97% of those are resolved through plea bargains where the defendant agrees to plead guilty in exchange for reduced charges or a lighter sentence. If you counted those guilty pleas as convictions the same way Japan counts trial outcomes, the U.S. federal conviction rate would also exceed 99%. The roughly 83% conviction rate Americans typically hear about applies only to contested trials. Japan has no comparable plea bargaining system for most crimes, so nearly all its cases go to a full trial, and the 99.9% figure reflects verdicts after that process.
Fucking sadistic bastard…I second this.
Might… uhhh…tickle a bit 😉
Shocking, I know…
So the same amount as if you or I were to seed a single torrent of a movie. Cool.
Some weird ass fork by a company founded and staffed by Israeli ex-intel officers that allows automatic backup of chats even if they are set to delete after x days
Think about what I said vs what you think I said before you decide to reply to me.
I did. Now think about what’s in your food at 3rd place and consider how much worse it’s going to get.
Rice is a major staple food in our house. We’ve always avoided rice from the US as several studies have shown higher heavy metal levels in most American grown rice.

Look, they already got beat by the emus in one war, no need to stir up trouble a second time…
I always like to say that the US kept all the really shitty bit of being British.
Nah, wheat and rye are the hallmark of that one cereal killer.
