Survey asks: What makes Japanese citizens feel distinctly Japanese?

I read an article that can be found here that talked about what made Japanese people feel Japanese.  Some of the answers made sense, such as eating rice and miso soup for breakfast, putting natto on rice and drinking Japanese sake.  There were some responses though that were pretty egotistical and funny.  Here they are:

—When I wait in line without complaining. (Female, 31)

—The joy of drinking water right out of the faucet. (Female, 39)

—Even if I’m dealing with a difficult or unreasonable situation, I never show my true colors and keep my feelings to myself.  (Female, 24)

—When I get irritated with people who are unable to read a situation or pick up on the mood of a conversation. (Female, 30)

The comments from sore readers were much better though.  Here are some of the good ones:

--Complimenting his fellow gaijin friend/coworker/stranger for such amazing skills to handle chopsticks.

--When I smoke irregardless of who is sitting nearby.

-- When I pretend to be asleep on the Tokyo Subway and refuse to offer my seat for pregnant women.

--the only words in my vocabulary are sugoi, kawaii and oishii

--Surprised nobody mentioned the four seasons, which only happen in Japan.

--My girlfriend came over the other day and said "Make me feel like a Japanese woman!"

I told her to do unpaid overtime.
