It isn't *every building* but it actually is pretty common for floor numbers to go from 12 to 14.
Technically, the 14th floor is really just floor 13 with a different name, but we pretend not to realize.
Personally, I think it's a dumb superstition, but you'd be surprised what can bother people.
I used to work as a cashier, and sometimes if somebody's total was $6.66, they would be kind of upset
and ask me to change something.

That's the kind of kudzu I was thinking of.
>>808
Thanks for that extra explanation. :)
>>813
It depends on the usage. If you say Kuzu or kasu as a random word like an exclamation
when you're mad, then "generic swear words" is perfectly fine.
>>817
I'm with you. I don't understand people who say they would still work. I only work so I can live like I want. If I had money
from some other source, I would travel first, and then buy a nice place in an area with the fastest internet I can get.

I searched on google and I watched this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3xluPX-Q_0
It was funny, but there is no way anyone was going to understand what he meant when he kept saying "very very sky."
I don't even know what that was supposed to mean.
This is funny for an English speaker because it sounds like "ass food," which is why the people were confused.
I assume that's not the joke in Japanese. Maybe somebody can tell me if there is more too it than just the people
not understanding.

I've never heard of that. I would say it's probably not true, because it seems like I would have heard something
like that at least from my british friends on facebook.
I could be wrong though.
>>824
I have heard that too. I think there are a couple of rules that would help, that those people probably didn't follow.
1: Don't tell everyone. Be very careful about who you tell because everyone will probably beg.
2: Hire a lawyer and and accountant before you do anything else.
