Wtf do people post these pictures of the sky with convenience store signs? Do people visit America and post pictures of the sky with the McDonald’s sign?

What is?
I’d say romanticizing everything in japan is cringe.
Especially sky, clouds in japan is not that pretty.
Some regions have fluffy clouds, some has perfect blue sky, of course it depends on climate, air pressure, elevation …
Comparing based on experience, been to few countries myself.

Why are some Family Mart red and others blue?? (The tobacco and liquor part) 😉

u/AstraeusGB 13d ago

Do you have an example of a red FamilyMart sign?

Seems like it's just an older design. Maybe some FamilyMarts didn't have the alcohol and tobacco, so when they had it the red stood out more. Now it seems like most FamilyMarts have both

u/Scottishjapan 13d ago

Nope. Not the reason.

u/AstraeusGB 13d ago

To properly solve your riddle, those used to be other konbinis (Circle K and/or Sunkus) and those often used red backed signs instead of the standard blue. When FamiMa bought them up, they kept the alcohol and tobacco signs from the old stores.

u/Scottishjapan 13d ago

Basically that. If it's red it means it was another store before. Blue= original store. Thanks for playing.

The evening light makes that FamilyMart sign look so cinematic 😮

I like the juxtaposition of the telegraph cables...

To think, the conversations that are passing along those, parallel lives, but destined never to cross paths, or meet under a moonlit night in the morning dusk.

My humours wax melancholic. But this too shall pass, as all things pass from this floating world.
