“The Venting Place” – a new service is offered in Japan. On the street there stands a booth and anybody can just come up and smash cups/bowls/plates for a small fee. You may read the “menu” where you will see: $2.20 for a cup – cheapest way to get rid of aggression and stress - and $11 for a big plate – for sophisticated visitors. You will be equipped with special glasses and other gear, for you not to harm yourself with scattering porcelain fragments. The originators of this stress-lowering booth assure that their method works and is scientifically verified. The similar business thrives in Lvov, Ukraine. But the range of things-to-break is not confined with plates – at extra charge you may break mobile phones and even television sets. “It becomes rather popular with businessmen” – says the organizer.
