Shimo is OK, but I haven't been back there since the following experience:
It was a summer evening, I think July, I was having some divorce and visa issues and had to come into Tokyo to try and sort it all out. I had a lot of stress, especially as my Japanese friend had totally just thrown me under the bus on another issue I won't go into here.
So anyway Im on the train to Shimo, minding my own business, and the JR staff start harassing me about listening to music. Was kinda annoying but I tried to put it to the back of my mind. I got off the train and noticed that several women would turn their back on me as I walked down the platform, which was disheartening.
anyway, I had a date lined up at a love hotel, but as soon as I got to the hotel and put on the slippers, I felt sick so I left.
I was now without a date but with blue balls, so decided to check out a local Kyaba. was going OK but got in a huge argument with the bartender and had to leave. So now with even bluer balls, I decided to check out what was clearly a shady Chinese massage parlor, had a good massage but at the flip, any 'extras' were refused. Obviously they were racist. I was so pissed off I punched a whole in the wall. Unfortunately I had shared my contacts with the masseuse, and she is still trying to blackmail me. I then went to another one, but despite being empty they claimed they were full.
As I walked back to the station, many people were randomly high giving me and chanting yare, yare!, which was nice, but then as soon as I sat down on my seat on the train I realized some fucker had squirted mayo all over it.
The next week I tried to tell my coworker all about it but she was too busy deep-throating a banana whilst fingering herself and staring at her boss that she wouldn't listen.
