Tokyo Life

Darwin, Chrissy, Vasili and I went out to Shibuya one evening to observe the masses.  There is a beautiful vantage point from the Starbucks at Shibuya crossing so we perched high above and watched the mayhem unfold.  After watching people for many minutes we noticed one guy in particular that seemed to be approaching random women.  We wondered what he could be saying to them.   Thanks to Japanator for educating me about the ways of the nampa.  Nampa is basically the art of picking up women.  The pitch line has to be delivered fast and be interesting enough to cause the woman to stop what she’s doing.  For the busy people in Tokyo this must be quite a feat.  The guy we watched never was successful.
