Look, we are going to make you say sorry. But it has to be formal

Asia and the United States are reqeusting that Japan begin a new investigation regarding forced sex slavery during WWII. And aplogize. Formally. I guess China, North and South Korea, and the Philippines are still really pissed that their women were forced to work at Japanese military brothels.

Historians say that about 200,000 women — mostly from Korea and China — served in Japanese military brothels throughout Asia in the 1930s and 1940s.

Damn, that is a lot of sex slaves! I guess I missed the prime time to visit Japan. The U.S. and Asia want Japan to apologize for the forced whore-ism. The thing is, Japan already MADE an apology way back in 1993. Now they want the apology to be formal. Rumor is, when Japan made the apology back in '93, they were just wearing a ripped pair of shorts, sandals and a "Gimme' Head Till I'm Dead" T-shirt. Somebody needs a sense of humor. While that is pretty informal, the shirt is a funny touch. Now Asia and the U.S. are making this apology a black tie affair- something REALLY formal and classy. The apology event will probably even have crab cakes and pigs in a blanket!
