A Very Confusing Sign

 

Wait, is this something I should or shouldn't do?

To be serious for a second, I think this does teach a valuable lesson to the ladies. If you ever notice a man taking inappropriate photos of you, simply freeze and start silently crying.

Kyary Pamyu Pamyu Breo CM

Breo is a mint and Kyary Pamyu Pamyu is that singer. If you don't know who Kyary is, you've either been living under a rock, or outside of Japan, or maybe you're just not that into horrible pop culture. Seriously, if you don't know who she is, I recommend watching her 3 videos on youtube and wasting about 15 minutes of your life. My lady says that when she sees Kyary, she feels embarrassed to be Japanese. I think that's a clear sign she's worth checking out. This CM, by the way, is very close to the video for her new single Candy Candy.

Fine Dining

It wasn't the best hot sand I've ever tried, but for only 500 yen! What a deal.

Watering KISS MINT

Hey fellas, are you having trouble scoring with the ladies? Have ex-girlfriends often listed your incredibly dry mouth as a reason for breaking up with you? If yes, you should really look into these special mints. They help produce an ample amount of saliva (which drives women crazy). I'd say eating these is the equivalent to shooting a futuristic love beam out of your mouth.

The Trees of Atsuta

I've been getting a lot of requests for more pictures of trees.

This tree is said to be over a thousand years old, so I guess you can pray to it.

A branch supporter thing.

Super Mario-looking trees.

Disabled Bikers

Are you unable to walk? Simply bike to the train station and park your bicycle in the spot furthest from the door. There's a spot waiting for you.

Japanese Food Review 2: Matcha Ice Cream Country Ma'am Cookies

Country Ma'am is a very popular chocolate chip cookie in Japan. The texture reminds me a bit of Chips Ahoy's chewy cookies, but the flavor is much better. They, like many Japanese snack companies, release new flavors several times a year. The standard and most popular cookie is vanilla, but there are at least 20 different flavors.

  

 

How many times has this happened to you? You're trying to enjoy 16 individually wrapped chocolate chip cookies, but you can't stop thinking about how the flavor is nothing like matcha ice cream. Your prays have been answered. This cookie has two layers. The inside seems to be a small vanilla flavored cookie with chocolate chips, while the outside is the green, matcha flavored cookie (I'm not sure what the difference between matcha flavored and matcha ice cream flavored is, but I didn't detect any ice cream flavor, unless the flavor of ice cream is sugar). It tastes good, but not as good as vanilla. The package suggests cooling the cookies in the refrigerator. Tried it. Tastes like a cold cookie. It also suggests putting it in the microwave to give it that fresh from the oven taste. Tried it. It came out the microwave looking wet, but, and this is a miracle of science, it really did taste like it was fresh from the oven. On to the ratings.

gaybot: 6.5 (It's good, but it's no vanilla)
girlbot: 3 (again, I don't know what she's thinking. She took one bite and said it was awful this      time.  Why? Because she doesn't like anko (sweet red beans), but there is no anko flavor. I pointed this out. I guess she thought the chocolate chips were beans. She took another bite but didn't change her verdict. It's seriously like having a robot participate in a taste test. Anyway....)
overall: 4.75

I came upon this really cozy store the other day. There are so many beautiful decorations. A big poster of a bikini lady, a small poster of a bikini lady, a big, white wolf, a baby white wolf. Maybe I'm an idiot, but I wasn't quite sure what this store was selling.

Of course! It's an energetic medicine specialty store! In other words, they sell products that make you a more ferocious lover. You can check out their website here. Under 医療機器 (medical equipment) they just have two penis pumps. By the way, this place opens up at 9:00am. I recommend getting there at 8:45 to beat the rush.

Rad Sausage Commercial

Move over oscar mayer. I think this dance is going to be the next macarena.

Did want to watch a 3 minute version of this?

Parking in Japan

This is a parking lot near The Nagoya Dome. Every time there's a big event, they cram in cars like this. I think this was during an EXILE concert.
