Someone needs to tell Hora that being spiritual doesn't make you a good person, and besides being a good person is the best way to get beat up by the world.
So he should just continue being an asshat.
...sadly, saying something like that in Japanese requires extreme subtility and cultural skill that I, as an upfront American, simply do not have.

Whatever, someone needs to tell Hora he's an asshat XD
I have no idea if it's true or not, but that's totally not the point.
Also love is a farce and relationships aren't worth the hassle.
Maybe Satoko converted to Nichiren Buddhism and is telling him it's quits if he doesn't convert too.
Edit: Also I lived in Choufu for a bit when I was a student...I don't remember this temple.
That's most likely because Choufu is fairly large I guess XD

Eh his last post was about taking the long trek to Jindaiji temple and still being a sinner on the way back.
Apparently Jindaiji is known for love and marriage woes. Maybe he's having naughty thoughs lol
Or maybe he mixed up what the temple is for and is currently wondering why the gods haven't found him his limited edition super rare sneakers yet.
Who knows. If it's about his relationship, it's a bit odd to publish it on Horablog so I'm not reading into it too deeply.
So answer is: Hora went to a temple and we don't really know why.
I'm sorry, but did someone hear something? It's almost as if some very large thing just said whatever.
It certainly wasn't a cat so we can't be bothered

I always get asked by people in Japan if I'm wearing coloured contacts because they can't believe my eye colour is real.
Today a group of students were so shocked that my eyes really are blue, turns out they thought everyone had brown eyes and foreigners just wore contacts to be fashionable.

I use long, narrow rectangular tiles as scanning weights, you can get them for like 50 cents at Home Depot.
Well, I was just as surprised to find out Japanese people don't have technicolor hair. Was anime a lie????

Haha, my favourite moment is still my co-worker's shock at Spaghetti being Italian and not Japanese.
In completely unrelated news, Emiru from LAREINE liked my answer to someone’s question asking me if I was single on his recording studios account LOL what does this mean

Kaya looks like unicorn barf and Mana's selling Moi Meme Moitie scrunchies.
Things seem to be going well in the vis kei scene.
Here's some dinosaurs in high heels. At least the photoshop scene knows what's got to be done.

Oh look, it's me trying to wear a any shoe that isn't a Chuck Taylor.
Also, scrunchies belong back in 1990 with acid-wash denim and tucked-in, baggy t-shirts.

You take that back, scrunchies are adorable.
Sure they're cute... Until there Moitié stirrup-pants show up!
