In a classic case of 'never let a good story go to waste,' a recent earthquake in Japan has given a local legend the ideal excuse to regale anyone within earshot with tales of his travels to the Land of the Rising Sun.

Despite the earthquake having no direct impact on him, our hero has taken it upon himself to share every minute detail of his journey, from the sushi he ate to the bullet train he rode. All this, of course, with an air of superiority that makes everyone else wish they'd gone to Japan, or at least wish he'd stop talking about it.

Friends, colleagues, and mere acquaintances are now all too familiar with the intricacies of his itinerary, which somehow seems to grow more elaborate with each retelling. So, if you find yourself cornered by him at a party, buckle up for a long night of Japan-themed anecdotes.
