A Hollywood actor walked into a Tokyo izakaya. 🍺 The salaryman next to him didn’t recognize him. “Beer first?” 🍻 That’s it. No selfies. No crowd. No one pretending to care. Later, the actor said: “In Los Angeles, I can’t walk outside normally. In Tokyo, nobody treated me like a celebrity. That was my favorite part.” Japan may be the world champion of politely minding its own business. 🇯🇵😂
