WTF, what kind of rule is this? Why the fuck would you forbid highschoolers buying sweets on their way home?

Never heard of that, but it sounds a hell of a lot more preferable to let the kids fucking eat anyway and just send them a bill instead of saying "fuck you, go hungry then".

>having the kids pay directly for the school lunch

Sounds weird to me, here it's paid through tax and the kids don't need to bring a dime to school.

Schools love nothing more than imposing pointless restrictions on student behaviour.

That means the school can't offer different meals at different price points, or second servings or anything like that.

if japanese society and culture are so demeaning and demoralizing, why are they so good at producing art?

just like you have weeaboos you'll have the opposite extreme, but they're just as ignorant

It's extremely common in primary and middle schools all over the world. Not so much high schools.

Because art is frequently a “fuck you” to demeaning and demoralising rules.

Just so you know, highschool rules like no eating or drinking anything other than water in classroom are very common in Asia. Some teachers care, some don't give a shit. It's not exclusive to Japan.

Escapism.

>That means the school can't offer different meals at different price points

We got 2 options every day, the regular food and the vegetarian food. There was also a small cafeteria at my highschool where I bought food when the dishes offered were something I hated. As for the different price points, I fail to see the relevance as no students had to pay at all.

>or second servings or anything like that.

We got second servings most of the time with no problem, it was only with certain dishes where they had limitations like "not more than 2 pancakes for dessert". The opposite problem where kids took way too much food in their first serving and it had to be tossed was an issue, so dividing it into two servings was basically encouraged in order to avoid it.

>We got 2 options every day, the regular food and the vegetarian food
And we had like 5 options per day, plus the option of saying fuck it and going to a nearby convenience store or some shit if we didn't particularly want any option. I think we won out.

Pretty sure it's illegal for a school to enforce their own laws desu.

>plus the option of saying fuck it and going to a nearby convenience store or some shit if we didn't particularly want any option

Same here, at least in highschool. They didn't want students leaving the area when we were younger as they were responsible for us. And appearantly kids from the school were shoplifting candy and shit from the nearby convenience store. I guess that played a role.

Maybe they have a lot of Van Goghs and art produced out of depression.

That’s good to know, thank you. I suppose the students hadn’t been confronted with a hardliner like that before.

thats never stopped them

Welcome to Japan, where the school (and later, your workplace) IS the law.

If you're then the difference is that we always had the option of using the lunch money we had (and which we'd have got from our parents unless we had a steady income and particularly dickish parents) on what we felt like using it for, while you had to choose betwween "eat food given you for free" or "use own money to buy something else".

All laws are just suggestions if you're powerful enough or don't care enough. It's not like they can physically stop you from doing something.

>It's not like they can physically stop you from doing something.
>he doesn't know about Japanese school police

Don't American schools have literal police officers assigned to them?

It's a pretty complex cultural and economical issue in a way.
Here in glorious Europe we already have the muslims demanding halal food options,
but so far they've acually been told to fuck off and bring their own food if they don't like it.
Since we're all super socialist here technically nobody should be unable to afford the already subsidized school food, but since most schooling here is free arranging for it to be paid monthly or whatever is not practical.
It's different from how pre-school works, which is (generally) paid for and includes food.

Is Australia the only place where the norm is for students to bring their own lunch?

>being weaker than Japanese school officers.
If you let that stop you then you've got no chance elsewhere.

Well in America, it's against the law for kids to be outside by themselves without supervision. So they wouldn't even be in a position to buy sweets on the way home.

Japan wins again. Your next move, USA?

I wonder if it has to do with cleaning?
I'm German (not the same German as the other user), and at my school, they always had cleaning ladies go through the classrooms to clean, in the late afternoon after school was over.

Maybe in Japan they don't have this and that's why you aren't supposed to eat (kids make a mess easily)

Here, we have no food provided by the school for free. You either bring it from home or buy it in the school canteen.

Suffering rather than decadence leads to the best artists being born
Ever heard of Dostoyevsky?

Not all of us have a sugar addiction like America.

If anime is anything to go by the students usually clean after hours
It's probably more of a

The Japanese have the kids clean the school after classes are done for the day.

I thought it was basically "you must go straight home from school, no stops on the way for your safety" thing?

The "keep you safe" is probably just what they tell the kids. They don't want the school to be liable for whatever happens when the students are going or leaving school.

>Do you also go around picking up other people's garbage after watching a movie in a theater?

Thanks for your concern.

Here you pay a sum to the school each month. And there was a big uproar recently because some elementary school kid, whose family was too poor to pay for her lunch, was initially suspended from it and was to be sent home hungry. Then they backtracked and decided she would get crackers and tuna which made it worse. Eventually the lunch quota was paid by a football champion whose name escapes me after the news slammed the school for a month for denying food to such a small kid.

don't give them tips, they are a lost cause.

Wow, that's really harsh if true. In my country, we only got a stern telling from the teacher if we rode a motorcycle when we still haven't got license.

More like they want the children to change out of their uniform then they can go to the red light district for all they care.

I don't have a page on hand, but there was this scene in KnJ where the teachers talk about how they have a policy to put close friends in separate classes when they shuffle them around every year because "it would help the kids when they grow up".
What the fuck? Does this really happen in Japanese schools?

No, it's also a norm in other third-world countries

Well they've done a really commendable job at it, it must be said.

The issue is uniforms. Why can't they just let students wear what they want, within certain reasonable limitations? As my HS didn't have uniform, we were free to leave school during breaks to eat what we wanted whenever we wanted and travel however we wanted and stop wherever we wanted so long we didn't miss many classes.

Fuck this shit. It's more valuable to have a good group of few friends who work best together than that everyone has to be best friend with everyone shit. If you want to force socialization just kick students from the classrooms during break.

First of all, school rules are not laws, and secondly, where I live (Central Europe), the School Act states that pupils are obliged to follow rules created by their school. So yeah, here schools can set their own rules and then enforce them by available means.

Why do they all look like fucking junior high students

The school still cannot override the existing laws and student rights. Forcing someone to dye hair wouldn't fly in most western countries.

She should have shaved her head in protest.

The difference is, in Europe school rules would apply while at school. In Japan school dictates your life from when you wake up to when you sleep. Random rules with no clear purpose helps instill a sense of hopelessness and gets you used to the fact that you only exist as a piece in a machine, ultimately forging the average Japanese person with no spine to stand up for themselves and an acceptance of any and all authority.

Can your schools decide they don't want their students to get a part-time job? Because in japan they can.

>they'll grow into people who can't function without a hugbox and are only good at circlejerking

this is because Japan was a feudal, class-based hierarchical society until the late 19th century when they suddenly and violently modernized. Then they spent another 100 years as an extremely militarized, non-class based but still hierarchical society until the US put an end to that. Still, centuries of deep-rooted cultural structures don't get erased that easily. Notions of hierarchy and class are built into their language at a fundamental level. A lot of Japanese I've talked to consider the salaryman the modern bushi, work culture is filled with warrior metaphors, and companies are set up as psuedo-militaries where you're expected to join young and serve them unwaveringly for life, working your way up from the bottom to officer positions if you show enough ability. Early Japanese companies were almost all funded and run by ex-samurai families. Of course, this is changing now. It's easier than before to get a job after your early 20s, it's easier to change companies / careers, people are conceptualizing salarymen as a warrior elite less and less.

Compare this with the west, which more gradually eased itself out of feudalism over the course of centuries with a series of revolutions and cultural shifts, rather than having modernization suddenly thrust onto them.

No, it’s also common in America because school lunches here are worse than prison food.

Japanese highschools are more like private businesses. They're always super concerned about their reputation as it affects how many students will apply to them. So they have a lot of stupid rules for what students do outside of school because if they're caught doing stupid shit while in uniform it can damage their reputation.

It's also the reason we have those stupid bullying manga, because if teachers reported it, it would damage their reputation.

The west also has an unhealthy work culture, it come with industrialization.

Most public schools have a single officer assigned to them. Its a do nothing job and they mostly just sit by the front entrance all day making sure no weirdos come in.

It's pretty simple. A credit bureau or bank looks at your financial history and assigns a score based on statistical data that gives a basic indication of how trustworthy you are with money.

>If we let these kids socialize, they'll never learn how to socialize

>but with longer intestines the meat putrefy inside it,

That's a myth. By the time the meat has gone through your stomach acids and been broken down by bacteria its not going to suddenly putrefy. It's already been broken down and what's left in the intestines is mostly the same as what would be there if you had been eating meat. Vegetables actually get broken down less than meat does due to higher amounts of things like fiber.

Tldr meat won't putrefy inside your intestines just because its longer.

That one makes sense, it's about forcing them to form new groups.

They let the students clean in order to teach them to work for everybody’s benefit. I have read claims that it just doesn’t work because the students don’t know how to clean properly (being non-professionals) and because the whole Japanese work ethic is ‘look like you are working, results don’t matter’; and the schools degrade from small damages over time.

Paypal is legit awful. High service fees for transactions and high conversion fees if you're buying anything overseas. And I do not want every site I buy from to have my bank information. Its a lot easier to get a fraudulent charge removed from your credit card then it is from your bank account.

we got shit pizza every day. that's it. pizza. the michelle obama-enforced fruit was the goddamn tomato sauce on the pizza. they dairy was the cheese. the grain was the dough. the spices were vegetables. no second options, no sides, just cardboard pizza every day.

You DO realize that the only reason you can enjoy the NEET life is because your parents did all the things that you refuse to do and because they have the human decency not to throw you out on your ass, right?

Exactly, it's a show off, there's no moral ground here, they just don't want to ruin "reputation" and "good image".

Capitalism is more like indentured servitude. You can and should be debt free long before retirement.

You do realize that someone don't have to work at all and have everything you never gonna have, and you wanna brag about someone not wanting to fall into wageslave meme.

You went to school in Japan? How, and for what purpose?

I'm not, I honestly don't understand why some people treat it as the norm even if they act like it's a chore to them.

I mean buying something is usually like 30 years of rent + additional interests and eventual costs for insurance, renovation and fixing things. Moving becomes more complicated too.
Also there's always the risk of loosing most of the money you put into that thing if there's a bigger accident or you want to move after all and the prices plummeted.

Of course, if you really find a house and neighbourhood you love and are mostly sure you'll want to spend the rest of your life there it's another situation.

It's similar with cars. Some people spend a lot of money and time driving them despite they only need to go to places that aren't easy to reach using public transport once or twice a year.
I don't understand how all the insurance, stress, money and wasted time is worth it when a combination of bike, public transport and a rented car every now and then does the job just as well for less money.

Good goy! Be a individual! Buy a house!

Shockingly, in Japan rules do work, because their entire culture isn't based around bucking the law and being anti-authority. Even in the U.S., where we have an extreme culture of individualism and pretty much all hate authority telling us to do anything, the majority of people feel compelled to follow the law most of the time.
Why can't you literal children understand that you don't know anything about human nature because you have no life experience or meaningful education?

good god, america is falling apart.

Sweet sales are usually a cover for drug sales.

Sweet salesmen are also often sexual predators using a pretext to lure their victims.

It's an understandable rule.

My mother thinks they're descendants of aliens.

The nearest bus stop from me involves walking or biking over a mile down a relatively busy road without sidewalks that people like to speed down way over the limit. Then wait about an hour for the bus to arrive to take me to the metro station to take me to work. Similar if I want to go shopping. I don't even live in a super rural area, a good sized town is just 10 minutes by car away. Not everywhere has super good public transport or is safe to walk and bike. This isn't uncommon either.

Clearly, yes.

Yeah, but those are mostly used for free time fun.
I'm only wondering about the people who really seem to just use them for transportation where it isn't needed and then complain about being stuck in traffic, having trouble to find parking spaces in the city and the gas prices.

Protein deficit is not a good thing

Is that what she wanted to archive or just a perfect example of how rules can become jokes if you don't close loopholes?

In my slavland our class has been together for 9 years, despite having multiple classes like, say 2-A and 2-B, is shuffling them every year a Japanese thing?

Human nature is malleable. Seeing the US versus Japan should have clued people into this by now.

The latter.

>the majority of people feel compelled to follow the law most of the time.
Despite agreeing with most laws it worries me how most people follow them without thinking about it and can't even imagine changing some. Like they honestly argue with "it's legal" in a debate about why something should be allowed.
Rules are all about finding a somewhat acceptable common ground for most of the society but you should always be encouraged thinking about them and questioning them.

Is that loss in the bottom right corner?

>relatively busy road without sidewalks that people like to speed down way over the limit
I hate this. More good sidewalks or little bike only roads would do a lot more to prevent fat kids than banning sweets on certain ways.

It's better than being a cyclist.

>working your way up from the bottom to officer positions if you kiss enough ass*

Ftfy.

If they're in the school where the students are obviously below the age to get the license, that's obviously good rule

They're third years (17-18) and you only need to be 16 to get a scooter license (or a mid-size motorcycle license for that matter).

The age required to get the type of license for a scooter is only 16 in Japan. You can get one by your second year in highschool over there.

So what about realistic delinquent culture in Japan? Do people who dye their hair blond, ignore rules, wear long skirts, tan their skin an etc exist? If they break the rules, does the school constantly give them expulsion?

Having too many expulsions damages the schools reputation.

They don't expel them, they encourage them to withdraw.

You would think delinquents, who probably punch people who try to be "encouraging" and skip classes wouldn't give a care?

Delinquents in japan are the same in every country. They're little shits who cut class and smoke in the bathrooms.

You live on your own but never took a loan out to buy a home or car?

Its the parents who withdraw them and transfer them to a different school because they don't want the shame of having an expelled student in their family either.

Yeah how dare a student be made to respect the country they live in

Not everyone lives in america. Public transportation is so good and cheap that you don't need a car if you're a shutin like me, and buying a house just isn't a good deal unless you are filthy rich.

I realize not everyone lives in the US, but I think most people that live on their own would understand why people take out loans on those things (And no I am not the guy who was arguing with you, it was just a question since I'm surprised someone who lives on their won took that stance).

Buying a home where I live is cheaper than renting and I get to keep it. It's pretty much impossible to get around here without a vehicle. I'm not rich and I took loans out but I live pretty clearly within my means and they'll be paid off. Car way before home though.

Why do Americans hate cyclists so much? Is it because you think they're poor? Communists? Get over yourselves

implying anyone here wants to live

Not american but over here they are a real blight on the roads. They treat the local bike lanes as their personal tour the france, disregarding every traffic rule known to man. Obviously i'm talking about the spandex clad maniacs, not regular people.

What does that have to do with respect?
It's a completely arbitrary thing to say, that singing a national anthem somehow means you respect your country or you're a better citizen.

If you respect your country, do well in school, get a nice job, pay your taxes, get 3-4 children, and do community service.

I'm an American and never heard of anyone hating cyclists.

We had the same thing in my public school (American).
Usually the sort of foods or drinks people brought were from a vending machine and had noisy wrappers or were carbonated/could leave sticky spots if spilled.
No one would stop you from eating/drinking something like that in the hallway, though.

Its mostly in cities people hate them because they tend to ride really aggressively because they technically have the right of way in most situations.

>highschool rules like no eating or drinking anything other than water in classroom are very common in Asia.

Public schools in the US are the same. How heavily they're enforced is another matter though.

This is the same problem with the Middle East. A lot of countries were doing fine when they were still ruled by monarchs, but when they were suddenly give democracy with no time to develop, everything went to shit.

Ever heard about the hungering artist?

America's cycling infrastructure is hot garbage though, and cyclists have to cycle in really unsafe ways. Add to that the car culture and you have a perfect recipe for hatred.

Don't bother, the vast majority of people on Yea Forums believe babies were born with complete control of their actions and that everyone who's experienced any type of misfortune should "just work harder, bro"

In what universe is being a consequence-free leech on one's parents a "misfortune"?

Why don't they just make the whole room bulletproof instead?

The fun thing is, if those rules really apply depend on the teacher.
While our math teacher didn't even allow the display of food our biology teacher brough some fruit snacks along for the whole class and in laboratory week during a genetics project we were allowed to eat ice cream and even store it in the enzyme freezer.

Where's your foreskin?

In expensive beauty products.

At our school, we were allowe to eat in the classrooms. But there was a strict ban in the science rooms, i.e. the chemistry room, biology room and i think the physics room too (it was sometimes used for chemistry).

10 month student exchange, by paying a company that does student exchanges. Ask the school if your kid can do it, one needs permission to miss a year. Because I was bored with life and wanted to experience that. Got some sleezy language skills out of it, too.
Be careful with choosing the company, though, some suck… in other countries, they give host families money so the host families suck, but in Japan, there’s cronyism instead or they just don’t do their work and shuffle you around host families every few months.

But why did you know Japanese? (Not the other guy.)

Don't want kids making a massive fucking mess of classrooms and not cleaning up after themselves.

a lot of students from my high school came to school in motorcycles lol then again, my country is a shithole

What? Being a slob who's had their parents do everything for them their whole life isn't misfortune.

To be honest I've only taken to passing on the good advice I got from the nurse who administered my pain meds when I went to the hospital thinking my appendix had burst. Kidney stones. It's worse than you think, and even worse than that is that you're more prone to them after the first round. They form more readily on the scar tissue they leave behind. Had them twice more after the first round. Never again since. Drink more water. Pee clear all the time. And pee a lot, yes. Your body will thank you by not stabbing you in the ureters.

My school had us clean class but nobody could be trusted and one time a whole class was missing their phones.

Yes to both.

Because I was bored, I took two semesters of classes at an evening school beforehand.

I think they were eating snacks, but they have to clean up themselves anyway, so…

That falls under “whatever weird thing the Californians are doing.”

Are you retarded? they make you clean the fucking classroom or other parts of the school, that's literally janitor's work, not only cleaning your fucking desk you weeb

That in itself would tarnish schools reputation.
The whole purpose of the uniform is so public can recognize students school. Posh uniform of high rep private school makes school and its students look good if they behave. Thus the rules. Its a nasty system, but in a society where reputation is super important its also understandable.

same here but the funny thing was it never applied to the teachers

YOU STOPPED SOMEWHERE ELSE IN YOUR WAY BACK HOME? WITH YOUR UNIFORM?!!?!

Is it true they aren't allowed to have a part time job in school?

Yes because fish definitely has the same consistency as beef/pork.

I heard that Japanese start up culture is pretty much nonexistent too at least when compared to US, EU or China.
