And Stay at the curry house. sounds weird but is an awesome little bar/japanese curry restaurant. They have three very large, very cheap, very traditional rooms that you can rent upstairs
We stayed in the backpackers, which was more like a ryokan (traditional house) than the one we stayed at in Kyoto.
Was very cheap, and really quite good!
Would also recommend going to the island in winter (and Japan in general). This island is a bit of a hotspot in summer.
i don’t know anything about that mark newson geezer but the speedboat on his website looks pretty cool and makes me want to live in miami with a white suit and a fat gold chain. pimpin’.
To all the ID haters, have a read of this and learn something:
The design of SRAM Red 2012 | Bicycle Design


Nice one. I’d like to see more hand sketches.
I do like how they used Alfa Romeos on their mood boards. Such passion.

on an unrelated note, the other day I found a Mark Newson design that I actually didn’t find repulsive:
Trek Livestrong Stages '09: Trek Bicycle: The world’s best bikes for road, mountain, or town.
no one hates the idea of ID, horatio.
it’s just that they produce so much pointless shit ![]()
and mainly it’s just the famous egomaniacs that ppl hate
Fixed it for you… ![]()
I think pin has some advice for you if you’re finding it all too boring ![]()
fixed it for everyone:
no one hates the idea of graphic/industrial/product/architectural/web/systems/fashion design.
it’s just that they all produce so much pointless shit.
ID = Interior Designer?!
Yeah I think this is a suitable compromise
shit, i forgot to add interior design to my list. EVERY other creative type hates interior designers!
FTFY
(…and that’s a quote from an interior designer!)
i think every architect likes to call them that 
Here seems like the most appropriate place to put this
haha the first comment is pretty good…
Finally, a solution after all these years of thinking, “Man, I sure do love biking, but this doesn’t hurt my balls enough!”
Oh god that’s hilarious. Damned Europeans
I prefer Cushion Tosser
Insert South Park IT bike here. Fark.
