Can someone flag this scam comment please? Thanks


I'd honestly prefer an Arby's coupon or perhaps a crisp $1 note over "1 year subscription to our credit monitoring service"

I didn't buy a printer to send letters to Uncle Sam

Wow that's crazy. I always wondered why Lego never made a true building game, especially since they've been putting out good quality software since at least 20 years ago.

Anyone else used Lego Digital Designer or played their old Flash games?


Perhaps a polite way to say "harem"

That would be wishful thinking. I think he just meant, close female beings.

Why assume this is a man? Sounded like a woman talking about her friends to me.

Why would that be a reason to ban iodized salt?

Too much iodine can lead to thyroid problems, and this has been a problem in some subgroups in Japan: https://academic.oup.com/jcem/article/107/6/e2634/6516999

Even without iodized salt, Japan is one of the highest consumers of iodine worldwide. [1]

But I agree. Even though iodized salt is pointless in Japan, so is the law banning it (assuming OP is correct, and it is in fact banned).

IIUC it's not specifically banned by name in a law, more like not on the whitelist for food additives. Industrialized foodstuffs manufacturing in late 20th century Japan was wild, and additives are managed on approvals basis than bans as the result.
