This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!'... and Gon's Balls will whisper 'First... comes... rock!' Hah!  Made you stare at Naruto's Marshmallow!  Pushing the logo off-center to drive TheOcean insane.

So um.
Yeah...

What kind of Thanksgiving do you think Yugi would have...? Assuming he would, of course...

I bet he'd be trying to help other people or something, like, the poor, haha. Or spending the time with his parents/grandfather/friends. Though yes, he's Japanese, not American, so he wouldn't be celebrating.

Because Thanksgiving isn't really a good conversation for Japanese people. And if I recall correctly, you've derailed conversations before too. Just saying.

^^^^Thithisthisthis.

Japanese people do celebrate Christmas, not to the extent we do, it's just a borrowed holiday, like Halloween. They just do the gift exchange stuff, mostly.

According to Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_New_Year ) and some of my weak basic knowledge of Japanese culture, in a nutshell, traditional decorations are put up, special foods are eaten, little cards wishing people well in the coming year are sent out, giving little kids stuff in the pochibukuro bags (like the little Chinese envelopes, I forget what they're called), people will go to their shrine on News Years Day and pray for a good year (and usually kids make wishes), etc.

Christmas is NOT a national holiday in Japan (the closest holiday to it falls on December 23, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Emperor%27s_Birthday ), not everyone would celebrate it, some people may put up decorations, though it's unlikely, it's not like how it is in North America where you get the big trees and people put up lights on their houses and huge displays in parks, etc. It's more that people know about it, and tend to go out and buy gifts for the sake of the holiday, but it's not like here where 'WHOO, I GET OFF WORK AND CAN GET DRUNK ON EGG NOG WHILE PUTTING UP DECORATIONS AND SCREWING AROUND WITH FAMILY' (Or at least that's how I've come to imagine Christmas being celebrated). And, as a friend of mine so rightly put it 'Christmas in Japan is basically like Valentine's Day. If anything, they're all just trying to get laid.'

I'd like to see a statistic on this 'half the time it's wrong' thing. Most of the time when I use Wikipedia, I find the exact same information elsewhere, if the links are proper and valid, I don't see a problem. And hell, you can gather some basic information on the Japanese new year just by watching anime/reading manga or playing JRPGs, from what I noticed and my experience with it, it all seems legitimate.

Wikipedia is fine as long as you check their references. My English Prof told me that it is a good starting point for information and that a few scholars have done a compare and contrast with Wikipedia and other Encyclopedias. The percentage of proper and improper information was almost the same.

Don't believe everything people tell you. Use your head.

So you are using one article as your proof? Especially one about a mythology that was regionalized, had many crossovers, and mergers of gods when the north and south regions became united. I'm sorry but I'm going to believe my professor, scholars, and my own brain over a kid on the internet.

Wikipedia isn't the best source but it isn't an awful one like everyone makes it seem

Exactly. Wikipedia has its faults but a majority of the information provided is actually quite accurate. Sure, you can run into some kid being stupid and putting in some random shit that makes now sense or someone who just mixed some things up, but there really isn't anything wrong with it.
I am with sugar on this one.

Haha, no kidding, ancient Egpytian mythology could be so Goddamn different depending on where it comes from, it really was incredibly regionalized-- not to mention Romanized at some point-- Gods were put in, taken out, we have no idea what some were even for, etc.
