one evening last week i was at a restaurant i often go (west japan) and they didnt have their AC on. its cooler at night of course, but it was 36C that day, and was still hot and uncomfortable inside the restaurant. buddy and i sweated it out until happy hour ended, but were happy to get out of there.

japanese culture has a fetish for suffering, but they dont usually inflict it on customers
