		<description>Haha! You had me going there!
It&#039;s true, though. In Japan, &quot;I was drunk&quot; is considered an acceptable, all-purpose excuse. I saw a drunken teenager punch a cop in the face recently, and the police just let him walk away without so much as a caution. Madness! Although, the situation does benefit me a lot of the time..</description>

		<description>I love the whole &#039;I was drunk, so don&#039;t blame me&#039; thing here. I mean, last year we got pissed, threw some firecrackers at an old broad waiting for the train and laughed and danced while her husband tried to revive her lifeless body (must&#039;ve had a heart attack or something). 
Anyway, the police chastised us a bit, but then sent us on way with a deep sigh and a &#039;shoganai&#039;.
I love this country.</description>
