re: #37 Colère Tueur de Lapin

I’ve never watched the show; I would be shamed by her tidiness, I assume. But, I really can’t imagine that she is anything but polite and unassuming. Yes, I see the irony in my prejudgment, but I’m good with this one.

Not exactly unassuming. She’s confident and firm in her expectations of her “clients” on the show. She’s about 5 feet tall and maybe 100 pounds soaking wet, but I wouldn’t want to make her angry. Her kids could probably tell stories. ;-)

Ironically, Kondo Marie is more famous abroad than in Japan. As my wife says, there’s nothing extraordinary in what she says or does for most Japanese women.

Chinese, too. Here it is called feng shui, a kind of mystical alignment of physical objects for maximum effect (prosperity, happiness, etc.). Most of the homes I have visited in China are remarkably uncluttered, or at least everything has a place to be, out of sight. It’s rubbed off on me. When I visit cluttered homes in the States, I feel claustrophobic in a way, and I’m not prone to claustrophobia.
