Two ips

12.180.48.10 nyc (150ms)
124.212.171.44 japan (in the early 200s)

Why are pings to japan always so bad, aside from the obvious theory?

There are many possible reasons for NY pinging lower than Japan. Routing, hops, time of day, traffic...

I've noticed that over the past 3-6 months my connections with Japan have been a lot slower than they used to be. I thought maybe it was just in my head. . .

It's definitely always too high a ping to Japan. The distance is miniscule. They must have some crap international links with them.
