Can i claim it?
interested if above falls through!
Let me know if I can get my hands on this, I'm in Tokyo right now
Is anyone okay with collecting from Haneda airport tomorrow?
scratch that, any station stop on the monorail or the kk is fine too
most central is probably ueno but ikebukero is slightly less busy
(i know this sounds weird but it’s cause I decided it was easiest for me logistically to put it into storage there)
I’m coming back from kyoto on Monday. I can pick it up at ueno if that’s an option
Sorry I could only put it into storage til 4pm tomorrow. If no one else claims it by then, we’ll work it out
Where is it now? I am free and could use it too
Got too many plushies and he needs someone to take it off him 🤷♂️
I need it too. Name the place and I will go there tomorrow
alright well whoever can meet at shinagawa station at 3pm-5pm today, it’s yours. just send me a friend request if you’re available
it’s in storage at haneda airport terminal 3
Sent you a friend request. I'm about 30mins away from you
<@&560861727692947456> this person is a scammer, made me wait an hour
How about this, you can make it up to me, and have it delivered to my hotel and we can say this was a horrible turn of events
If not, I'll send a ticket in
Here's my hotel
If you don't believe this isn't my hotel, I can give you reservation invoice
i would actually do that if it didn’t require giving an unsafe level of personal information like your full name and room number
Just buy a suitcase yourself if you need one so badly
I'm leaving tomorrow for Osaka anyway
Well, how about it, you can meet me at my hotel before I leave tomorrow at 9am
You don't even have to meet me, just leave at the front desk and I will let them know
no way, you’ve wasted my time enough
Haha, same goes for you too
and your reaction makes me feel unsafe at the idea of going anywhere near you
You'd be pissed too if someone made you wait over an hour
it wasn’t over an hour actually. it was 45 minutes from when i first estimated i’d get there
Doesn't matter, you still wasted both our times because of your alleged incompetence
adhd is an actual disability dude
Not in Japan, you can look it up. But that is irrelevant
i don’t know what you mean by that. it’s classed as a learning disorder in japan i think
No it isn't. But that is besides the point
To you, It's a learning disorder, but you are in Japan taking classes. Pretty sus.
do you think that anyone with a learning disorder can’t access education?
language schools don’t care
not for adhd anyway
Ya, because it's not a disability
You can still learn like anyone else. It's not a disability where you are unable to learn to skill
Again, this is besides the point. The point, you were incompetent and you failed simple instructions.
no but it can cause sensory issues in some people, which are disabling. and in terms of education, it’s time management and attention issues that lead it to being called a learning disability, because it disables the ability to do well
If you don't want that suitcase. Just put on the curb and write in Japanese and English 'free to take'
that’s illegal
i was trying to give it away because you have to pay a dumping fee
You can drop it off there
Well, I just went through the 5 stages of grief. I've accepted this as a loss.
Wtf happened here
that’s not a thing
This person made me wait nearly an hour for a suitcase
this person made me travel to meet them, then left because i got lost
@vapid mantle well you told me you lived here. I had confidence that you be able to meet
If you had told me hey, I'm not good at directions, I would meet you where you are comfortable. I would go to shimawa station as first intended
yeah probably should’ve done that but i wasn’t really thinking
but you should’ve sent a link instead of confusing photos
I was just Glad today wasn't pouring rain.
Those photos were fine. It had literally the exit number and the intersection name in English
You could have punched those in your Google maps
i tried
I even also screenshot my map and it showed exactly where the blue dot was
again doesnt help my brain
Again, blame is 10% me and 90% on you
Or address
I don’t think you’re at fault here
yeah it is fully on me
I take blame for being to confident in people
but your reaction could’ve been better
I was too naiive
this was also my first time doing something like this
Well I apologize but anyone who's in my shoes would react similarly
It's called 5 stages of grief, you can look it up
it’s a suitcase
Nah man, running in and typing obscenities in the chat demanding someone be banned is not a normal reaction
You do you though
Well I was pretty piss ngl, but people grief differently
it’s not a situation where grief applies
Well I was angry that it didn't work out as we wanted, and I've accepted it
And I'm still upset as well, doesn't mean I can't accept what happened
i have to lug this bigass suitcase up my narrow apartment stairs now
i’ll get over it once it’s up there
Hope the next guy has better luck than me. You can always, chop up in small pieces and dump it
consider this my punishment
nah I’m not doing this again
i don’t have the time or mental fortitude
my mum can take it when she visits
LMAO
One has to wonder what might have happened if @coarse prism had only waited 10 more minutes at exit A3... but I guess we'll never know now. 😁 
he wasn’t at exit a3
he was at a random 7/11
hence the issue
i think we got the stations confused too
two really close together

i went to the subway station exit
yes that one
yes
You can see clearly from the photo
LOOOL!
i’ m not disputing the existence of the exit
Obviously in retrospect y'all should have picked a different meet up point... like NOT a train station or the exit of a train station.
yeah and the location should’ve been specified before we agreed on it
that 7/11 was closer to the station i first came out of
the JR train station
then i went to the subway and found the exit, specifically to meet at a 7/11 supposedly near there
no the 7/11 was 7 minutes back the other direction
You know what's funny...
i tried going to a nearby 7/11 when i came out of jr too but it was the wrong one
is this reminds of the time I met up with my manga artist friend in Tokyo
HE set the meetup point to be an exit of the train station (small station in residential area of Tokyo) and then HE went to the wrong exit lol
oh I’ve done that before
my friends suffer
usually i allow time to get lost lmao
but today i had lots to do with moving
what a waste of 4 hours
going to the airport and back and then getting lost in between

i managed to get the suitcase upstairs without any difficulty thanks to it being empty
so the time waste is my true punishment after all
A person I know missed single exit station exit.
I don't want to know even how.
This was a hell of a read
I think you guys should organize a meetup location at Kyoto Station.
It's well labeled and will be easy to locate each other! Best of luck :^)
you are aware that simply lives in tokyo and is not traveling around, right?
so what have we learned today peeps
Don't give away shit for free
that I’d get lost trying to find my own behind
I think that its really easy to get turned around in tokyo when first living here, so its hard to meet people at new locations. I use all of my suitcases for store of my winter clothes and bedding because it gets so gross and hot here
oh yeah I’ve heard mold is a problem here
tell me, how many times do you have to go to shinjuku station before that place isn’t a maze
It took me abouttttt 7 times but google maps is very wrong with times it takes to get places in there
only 7 times?!
It's okay, I'm going to move the conversation out of this thread and into general
okay
sorry to the mods who had to deal with this situation
I’m gonna retire from this thread now
Probably 30 years.
Considering the number of levels, entrypoints.
But there are worse place for a meeting, say, a tunnel between Higashi Ginza and Hibiya (you can literally walk between those areas underground and go to Otemachi/Tokyo without ever going above ground).
wtf did i just read
Yo. Did you read the parts that spilled over into #general-chat too?
#general-chat message
don't think i've read so much entitlement over a free piece of luggage
It was good stuff
@wide flame you are too nice.. should have been an instant ban
NGL... if Simply was telling the truth... they would have actually just been minutes away from meeting eachother before Rektum quit on the situation and left. Highly ironic if that were the case.
I really don't want to be banning minor 'saints', unless I have to.
Sure... but I WANT to believe Simply. He/she seems like a decent person to me.
Definitely would have been INSANE if Simply wasn't even in Japan and conducting all this from his/her laptop on his/her couch from like Wisconsin or something though.
I'll be honest: having to deal with it while watching over my kid on a playground was I kind of annoying.
having gone through 3 kids have reduced my tolerance for idiocy
Funniest interaction I’ve seen in the server
