Birds do it, bees do it, even quirky Japanese do it...

I, of course, do not do it. At least not on the dratted V-Day, which once more looms balefully over us.

However, if you, like me, are single (as we approach this hideous annual shlockfest...) and would prefer not to be, here are some tips on how they find true love in the Land of the Rising Sun. For a deeper understanding, you should probably watch the instructional videos first (Lesson 1 and Lesson 2); but I think this illustrative short drama is reasonably self-explanatory.

[I have posted excerpts from this very funny series, The Japanese Tradition, on here a couple of times before: check out what these folks did with sushi and origami.]
