I think they have taken this up to a whole new level

Odakyu has a Japan, which is different to the Japan of JR

Agreed. At first I didn't get it but it is, in fact, pretty clever when you dwell on it for a bit.

Good thing I have 1-800-DEBITO on speed-dial.

Debito is a member of the Yakuza? He's missing a digit?

そして、今日一番笑ったやつ http://t.co/PcuahLWKW5 -- かどやん (@ken_ken508046)'s twitter March 11, 2014

The neon displaying grilled "HOMO" is supposed to read ホルモン Horumon, which is mangled engrish for "hormone" and pun on Kansai-ben word 放る物/"discarded goods." Japanese Horumon is grilled beef or pork offal.

Have you noticed that we switched from democracy (which despite all brain washing is nothing more than a dictatorship of the majority over the other half of the population, law of the strongest by number) to a totally new kind of madness where one anonymous complaint is often enough to rule what is not to be allowed ?
Why do we even pretend to be civilized at this point ? Why the idiots in charge respond when they "receive conplaints" and not only when they receive "legitimate complaints" stuff that break laws, not just make people ill at ease with their own insecurities... It's the flaccid version of vengeance mob.

by **Russell** » Fri Mar 21, 2014 1:17 pm

What's next? People complaining that the billboard has been removed?!?

Rub your engine if you support the billboard and its message. :mrgreen:

Actually, this "MENDICANT MONKS PROHIBITED" warning is an anti-Chinese sign. That is, almost all Kanto-ites believe that most begging monks are fakes---Illegal Chinese immigrants without any skills including language and who are just wearing cheap robes and cleverly pretending an oath-of-silence.
