Well apparently this Chinese student didn’t, and when she and her friends visited a rather famous sushi house while studying in Japan, she ended up pissing off the owners and went online to rant on Weibo (the Chinese Facebook) to bad mouth the sushi masters thinking that her friends would back her up. Instead, she was met with a backlash of public shame and many called her a disgrace to her country.

If this story doesn’t make your Monday just a little more tolerable, it’ll at least put you in the mood for sushi. Chinese student Chuhan Lin was studying in Japan when she and four friends decided to try sushi at a branch of the famous Sukiyabashi Jiro restaurant in Roppongi, Japan, made famous from the documentary Jiro Dreams of Sushi. The restaurant was managed by one of Jiro’s sons and is known the world over for pretty much the best sushi ever. To eat at this restaurant, you have to make a reservation and pick what you eat before you get there so that they make sure they prepare all the items you order as fresh as possible. Well Lin and her four friends, all Chinese students, showed up 40 minutes late and never even apologized. In the restaurant they have a common locker where patrons can store all their things while they eat. One of Lin’s friends wanted to get her wallet from the locker, but didn’t bother to ask the staff to assist her like any normal person would.

When someone did find her trying to break in to the communal locker, she was told off, and we are sure the language barrier didn’t help much either. It turned out that two of Lin’s friends didn’t actually even like raw fish. Why the hell would they go to sushi then, right? Her two friends ended up bailing to eat deep-fried pork somewhere else down the street- how classy. With only three friends left and a pre-ordered meal waiting for them, they cancelled everything and asked the sushi chef to just cook all the raw fish and package it- to go.

If you can’t handle raw food, you should have informed us when you made the reservation!” So Lin replied, “Who knew!? I didn’t make the reservation!” In her post, she ranted about their poor treatment saying, “If we were Abe! If we were Obama! Would he dare to show such an attitude?” She posted her entire experience on Weibo, thinking that her Chinese friends would agree that the restaurant treated her badly. Instead, her rant turned into a public shaming with many netizens calling her a “national disgrace,” probably for her embarrassing amount of cultural unawareness.

So if you are going to try something new today, maybe look it up a little and ask about it beforehand so you don’t get caught in any sticky situations. And please, always remember to be respectful of other people’s cultural differences- or don’t, because we all love to crucify stupidity on social media.The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.New Netflix documentary shows 'other side' of Steve Aoki by Alex Cohen and Francine Rios | Before the sheet cakes and champagne showers, DJ and musician Steve Aoki had long been building his own empire. His love of music was born during his college days at UC Santa Barbara. He majored in women's studies and sociology, but he also kept himself busy by starting his own record label, Dim Mak. After igniting the EDM scene about 10 years ago, he's gone on to nab a Grammy nomination, start his own line of eye wear, and reign over his own compound in Ibiza. But a new Netflix documentary is revealing another side of Steve Aoki, says filmmaker Justin Krook.

"I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" takes viewers into Aoki's family life, and shows how his famous father's spotlight motivated Aoki to step into his own. NOTE: Video contains strong language "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" debuts Friday on Netflix. Krook joined Take Two's Alex Cohen to tell more about the project. How Krook linked up with Steve Aoki "It's kind of a random story, actually. My business partner had directed a documentary called 'Jiro Dreams of Sushi,' which was a documentary about this sushi chef in Japan. We had gotten a call at the office one day from Steve's manager, and he said Steve had seen this film, he really connected with it. I had known of Steve, of his label. I had seen his shows before. I said, 'Steve connected with this movie? So we flew out to Miami, we had met him, and after talking, he really connected with the father-son story in this sushi documentary. I got to meet his family, and saw this other side of Steve that I don't think anyone knew existed outside of his inner circle.

And so when we kind of started delving into that story I said, there's an interesting film here beyond the caking and the rafting and his very capricious kind of nature. There was a really deeper back story to it." About Rocky Aoki, Steve's father and founder of the Benihana Restaurant chain: "He was an off-shore boat racer, he set world-records hot air ballooning. He flew a hot air balloon from Japan to San Francisco, which is a totally normal thing to do (laughs). He was a total wild man, and everything he did kind of drove back to his Benihana brand. The balloon would have Benihana written on the side, the off-shore boats would have Benihana written on the side. And Steve's kind of the same way. He has his label, Dim Mak, all these things he does outside of playing shows, he has a full-time videographer that travels around with him. He has a constant social media presence. In a lot of ways, he kind of is his dad." Did Steve ever get the fatherly-approval he sought his whole life?

"I think his dad, from my conversations with him (Steve) even outside the film, his dad could kind of see it (Steve's success) coming, so I hope Steve has a little bit of closure there, for his own sake. But talking to his whole family, the biggest regret is that he didn't get to see his (success). Because where he is today is much different than where he even was when we started the film. We've been shooting this for three and a half years, and I've kind of watched his star rise further along there. It's kind of a bittersweet story but I hope he found some closure there." What might the future hold for Steve Aoki?He's reinvented himself so many times. He started as a label A&R guy. He started in hardcore bands, and then he moved to indie rock with Bloc Party and signing The Kills. And then he again reinvented himself into a DJ — almost somewhat miraculously — and then pivoted from this kind of electro-sound he was doing to this more mainstream sound. So there's no chance that Steve won't reinvent himself again whenever the touring, 250 shows a year dries up.
