Most of the time, you're excited to return home after a vacation. That wasn't the case after Jimmy Kimmel's recent trip to Japan with his family.
"After traveling to Japan, I realize that this place, this USA we're always chanting about, is a filthy and disgusting country," the host said on Monday night's "Jimmy Kimmel Live."
The ABC host admitted that before spending seven days in Japan, he believed America was a country that had its faults and "areas for improvement," but that it was "pretty buttoned up" compared to the rest of the world.
"I go to Europe, and there are dirt holes where plumbing is supposed to be. I hold my breath, and I go, 'I'm glad I'm not one of these people,' and then I go back home," Kimmel explained. That wasn't the case when it came to the Land of the Rising Sun.
"It's like the whole country is Disneyland and we're living at Six Flags," Kimmel said. "I've been home 36 hours, I have never felt dirtier. We are like hogs compared to the Japanese. I can't imagine what they must think of us. 'Oh, the garbage people. Yes, the Americans. Garbage.'"
The late-night host said that he didn't encounter a single dirty bathroom during his time in the country.

Maybe we should have had them clean up their mess at Pearl Harbor.
He’s not wrong this time.
If you’re well travelled you know how bad the US is now.
Exactly my first thought!
Sounds like he’s astounded
Doesn’t go many places to have the means
That was my thought, too. He and his Leftist ilk deliberately trash the country, then refuse to acknowledge it’s all their fault. Typical and predictable.
Hmmm...Japan doesn’t let economic migrants flood the country so it’s cleaner. Japan guards its culture and doesn’t seek to blend it. There are places in Japan where foreigners are not welcome, and its perfectly legal.
“I’ve seen plenty of videos that showed parts of Japan that are utterly trashed”
?? Please share vids .
” and women stop working once they marry.”
Untrue for the most part .
“He’s not wrong this time.
If you’re well travelled you know how bad the US is now.”
As I said earlier , he is sorta right on this . I should know having lived here in Japan for 38 years .
German cities were very clean until it decided to become the Middle East
Japan is a country of “one nation, one civilization, one language, one culture and one race”
What’s important is the “nori,” going with the flow.
carl malone is the reasons why we are here, they sh## where they eat and then they blame it on someone else
Japan is the way it us largely for a reason Kimmel will NEVER say. “Homogeneous society”
dear jimmy, just think ...in Japan you are just a Western dog, with little value to the average citizen.
you make all that infantile chatter, yet I haven’t any information about your willing ro don the uniform of your country, to protect the very right you just utilized.
Coward.
Says the celebrity who gets catered to and only sees the good side of any destination he goes to. Japan has their share of blight. The food is better here too.
I wanna get one of those fully automatic Japanese bidets.
They also have a high suicide rate.
This pos has become rich and leads a charmed life and craps on the country that made this happen?
What a real a-hole.
Pretty trashed in the spring of ‘45.
Ever owned a pick-up truck? People see a pick-up truck in parking lot and use it as a trash can. Not kidding. A lot of trash blows out of pick-ups and the driver doesn’t even know about it.
