:/ Sigh.

Mostly my problem is that they're going to take an unflattering photograph of me right after 20+ hours of traveling. COOL GUYS. And then it'll go into a database for who knows how long for the security to stare and go HAW! LOOK AT THOSE KNOCKERS!

Also, last spring when I had my first passport picture taken, the light was so bright and I was so pale that the government sent them back. I had those pictures taken at AAA. The photographing equipment probably won't be any better in Narita airport---what if I come out too pale and it messes everything up? Will they throw me into one of those infamously horrid Japanese prisons? ;^; What if they have those problems some people have here, where they have the same names as terrorists and get stopped every time?

Also not sure how I feel about being fingerprinted.

ALSO, note how uncomfortable I am about all this even though the only thing I plan to destroy in Japan is a plate of curry mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm =w= And I do plan to go to Japan again. It's just kinda too bad there's gonna be another hassle at the airport.

It is objectionable, it's just an unnecessary hassle that treats people like criminals for no reason. I didn't even get fingerprinted when I went to Israel and they have a real security situation to worry about, unlike Japan/

...I am inclined to agree with that. Certainly Japan can't stop the tsunamis, earthquakes, and the ridiculously low birth rate by fingerprinting me when I just want to go to my hotel and pass out.
