B is unique, independent, peculiar
O is easygoing, generous

a and b don't get along, O is cool with everyone etc etc

I'm probably butchering it but this is paraphrasing from discussions I've had with it..

lol look up blood type discrimination, it's hilarious from a western perspective

edit: because my facebook location is set to Japan, it asks me my bloodtype and shows it right up top along with relationship status etc

wiki; Blood types in Japanese culture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

discrimination: You Are Your Blood Type (It's quoting a non-existent article so not quite a great source but the results match with my own observations so I'm putting it up as a "couldn't have said it better myself")
