Japanese Snaggletooth Craze Spawns Dental Procedures, Girl Group

Americans regularly fork over $5,000 to fix a crooked smile with braces. But in Japan, women are spending about $400 for just the opposite. On the other side of the planet, imperfect teeth are becoming a thing of beauty.

Japan's beauty trend, dubbed "tseuke-yaeba," has reached a fever pitch, with young women paying hundreds for snaggleteeth.

The procedure first made headlines in 2011 ...

WTF?

[GomiGirl]

I personally know 3 women who have braces right now. One of them has just turned 50.

Snaggle tooth is

I think the Yaeba fad is just a conspiracy to hide all the shit dental work.

Can you call something a fad when it's been around for decades?

[Coligny]

No, just the typical japanese behaviour...

unable to do something properly (dental healthcare)
so just do it poorly and give it another name (yay our crooked teeth are superkawaiiii fashiun trend and shit... no link to the pathetic state of our medical training at all, we swearz...)

[J.A.F.O]

Or maybe not wanting to "disrespect" the families dental physician by saying "we like our traditional Japanese teeth" (gag)

Are there any Japanese who argue with their doctors? Or just foreign trash like me?

[Coligny]

Too much of a god complex, arguing would led nowhere with a run of the mill doc...

And to a fooking shitstorm with me Julie with insult in several language including aramaic and klingon...

Most of the time, they try to hide the fact they have no fooking clue abOOt what's going on... It's like watching a TV show but with surprisingly good actors (that's why they are not available for real TV shows... they all have jobs as pretend real doctors)

You still hear girls today talk about this being "popular" yet the lone d00d I know that's in to it is just a tool and following what he thinks is expected of him. Sure, one cute girl has some slightly fucked teeth and is popular...but TIJ and suddenly everyone wants to look like her and the fucked teeth are popular? Me thinks not.

One of my lemurs has slight bags under her eyes a lot recently. (fucked sleep patterns) When I pointed it out, she (I shit you not) proceeds to tell me "it's popular now. I saw it on TV."

You pointed out that she had bags under her eyes? What was your encore, telling her that you thought her ankles were looking fat?

Dude, if somebody is looking tired, sick or fat, don't point it out. Offer some assistance to rectify the problem. People are aware when they are not looking their best and it is not really nice to remind them of it.

How dare you question my Rico Suave smooth talkin skills! Seriously though, it had gotten to the point where it was either me or the bags. After her excuse for the bags, I decided it was me

Oh tough audience...

Oh year a completely lame excuse by her about "seeing it on TV" but was she just trying to be ironic?

[Coligny]

She sure was not trying to look smart...

But if she wuz truly ironic... that would have been an awesome comeback (but in that case she might have added "also: fuck you" after her initial statement...

Dead serious, even named the show and all that...being Japan, I didn't question it was much as I did her grasp on reality. I didn't lose any sleep over her either. A mind like that and a body that had already had the beginnings of sagging at 22....I didn't need to stick around to see what a diet of pocky, macaroons, and ice cream would do to a body who's only exercise was walking to the car each day.

If a guy on this site ever says something like "she was such a nice person I couldn't help but overlook the package" I'll know the world is about to end.

Well god forbid you get bags under your eyes and spoil your boyish good looks.

[Samurai_Jerk]

I saw on TV that being an obese, alcoholic, misogynist was en vogue so I adjusted my look and lifestyle accordingly.

LOL, Yoko, if bags were the only thing she had going against here, it wouldn't be a make or break sort of deal. It would be worth the effort to get her to change her sleeping habits. Unfortunately, she was not such a nice person nor many other things. Still, it's easier to just look back at her as "Ol Baggy Eyes."

I set myself up for that.

[Coligny]

I went to study history after highschool because of the Hunt for Red October...

really...

Everytime someone was asking wtf i was doing here i just answered that i loved Russian submarines...

This uni despite being in the center of Paris had a huge cat community... The word spread quite fast among the felines that i was an easy target... and i don't remember being able to finish a single sandwich alone at noon...
So i started bringing cat food to share... until the day i wuz late and i tripped in a classroom after the start of a lecture, spilling bags of catfood on the floor. It was moderatly embarrassing... To picture it better, must add that it wuz a time where i was only wearing black pants, light blue shirts with shoulder pieces and a black tie... looking like the bastard child between a rentacop and a color challenged nazi youth...

//non sequitur for the win...
