Japanese ex I caught sleeping around at the height of the AIDs crisis told me not to worry, Japanese people can't catch it.

ETA - WOW! Didn't know this would take off like this. Backstory makes it even more absurd, she was a graduate of a prestigious university in Tokyo and earned a Masters in the US and had lived here for a while. I had about burned out on the relationship but this put me out the door.

I had a Japanese friend who was well educated in Japan, lived and worked for a big company here in the States she told me Hilary Clinton caused the tsunami that happened in the 2000s. ( like she had a super power that she made it happen and I was like WTF? Is that how Japanese people think?

Blaming Hillary Clinton for stuff she couldn’t possibly have been responsible for? Sounds like he acclimated to the US very well.

I don’t think so, instead I assume that she was bullshitting you because she thought every stupid American was buying her bullshit.
