I was just trying to figure out which was worse: Bill's aggressive
self-mutiliation or Satoshi's singing.

I finally concluded that they're simply forms of the same thing, and
what you're seeing here is simply a difference in cultural approach:

On one hand we have Satoshi, the more subtle and refined japanese man
with his S&M more in keeping with the style of those "rock bands" who
play in Tokyo's parks, assaulting passers-by and themselves with bad,
loud, electric renditions of american rock music and thus doing some
form of pennance for the sins of their ancestors.  Bill, on the other
hand, represents the crude, water buffalo american, tromping all over
everything with his big feet and brash, Hollywood, "if you gotta do it
then overdo it" kinda ways.

If you think about it, it's almost art.  Almost.
