Mina-san, what’s the best line you’ve ever waited in?
Sunday at 1:32 am
I don’t really like to wait in line… I guess the lines at Disneyland aren’t so bad, because event though they’re quite long, there are often things happening or some scenery to look at.
There seems to be some problem with this lesson in iTunes. At first I couldn’t download anything at all, and then after unsusbscribing and re-subscribing to the premium feed I downloaded the video vocab, notes and kanji close-up… but no audio at all. On the other hand, I tried “My feed” (just to see if the lessons got through in iTunes at all) and the audio was there…

That’s not a line. Camping on the street overnight with a bunch of friends fully equipped with a grill and sausage for the iPhone is a line.

Bakanekoさん,
If we’re going that way, waiting from 4 pm to 1am the following morning in a bookshop full of people dressed up as Hogwarts students for the release of the final Harry Potter book wasn’t too bad either. Better yet was riding the night bus home, which was 90% full of the same dressed-up people who all had their noses deep inside the book…
Sunday at 5:36 am
i never wait in line
Sunday at 8:45 am
the lesson ins’t coming through in iTunes.
Sunday at 1:37 pm
Why didn’t they include the adverbial form of “to line up”?
Sunday at 1:45 pm
probably the premier night for Star Wars Episode III
that was certainly a 長蛇の列

I hate waiting in line, but it seems like people wait in a lot of lines in Japan.
Sunday at 10:19 pm
They sure do: http://www.youtube.com/v/5-4CzVVCQMo&hl=en

For some reason, I never get the Premium Lessons through iTunes.

if you want to eat good ramen in tokyo, you have to wait for it.
also, i waited with my girlfriend for 1 hour and 45 minutes for crispy creme donuts in shinjuku when the store was new. that totally sucked, but after i ate a few it was all good!
Monday at 6:06 pm
Markysan!
Can you post your top 3 ramen-ya in tokyo?
Monday at 6:58 pm
AndamanIslanderさん、

柚子塩
タイカレースタイル
豚骨
i take my ramen very serious!

I normally do get the Premium lessons in iTunes, but this time not a single file from Saturday come through for me on the premium iTunes feed either.

Sasquatchuaさん、Lizさん、Rhysさん、

“I never get the Premium Lessons through iTunes.”
Me too.

I noticed that some restaurants in Japan (Nagoya, from my experience) have chairs along the wall for people to sit in while they wait in line. I haven’t seen that in other countries.
