J in Japan ~ a random moment: When on the train platform...

In any other country, a sign is a sign. In Japan. Well...it's still just a sign. But for some reason it just seems cooler. I dunno. In this case it might be the skiis that are doing it. Or perhaps the casual, bordering on gangsta way in which the safety thicker-than-stick man is just leaning over the subway platform gate and running onto the train with complete disregard for his life.
