8. The toilet seat raised itself as I opened the restroom door and FREAKED ME THE HELL OUT.
9. Public transit kiosks allow you to look at your itemized travel summary and even get a printout of it.pic.twitter.com/DGcC7YdzTX
10. I think I am supposed to walk on the left side of the sidewalk, and I *think* someone sneered at me loudly when I originally failed to do so. (But also, I am really tired and stressed out after a turbulence-happy flight, so perhaps I’m projecting.)
11. The fare gate closed on me in a rather gentle way when I tried to walk past it without inserting the ticket. (Contrast: San Francisco BART gate that slammed itself into my thigh and gave me a bruise *after* I paid my fare.)
12. Most time spent checking in was getting a debrief on a naked public bath in my hotel on the 10th floor. Should I do this. Y/N

14. So yes, I intend to press “oscillate” at some point. But FROM A DISTANCE.pic.twitter.com/TbhJR5wkGn
15. Okay, the magnetic Do Not Disturb/Clean Up sign is pretty genius, particularly compared to the usual paper one that always falls to the ground.pic.twitter.com/d38kF8ONlp
Outer doors tend to be metallic instead of wooden, so magnetic placards make sense. B/c of this they make a distinct clacking sound when closing, which you hear in anime scenes a lot when people enter/leave a residence.
That’s pretty cool. I will pay attention now.
It’s not something I consciously processed until I was there for about a month, but now I can’t unhear it.
