I think what you are looking at is a Roomba.
And if it's anything like my sister-in-laws one, how is it going to work? It will be committing suicide down the stairwell. Can't really blame it, the only escape from a lifetime of drudgery.

No, no, no, no. That is the 自動電気掃除機.

I mean the automatic iron. My point is that ironing is more than moving a hot piece of metal to and fro...

Ahh, sorry, I didn't realise that I had to scroll to see the full picture.
Yes, I can see that if we are limited to handkerchiefs the automatic iron has a place, but anything more than that needs draping of the fabric as much as movement of the iron, as you say.

A lost in translation thing.

My Jacket (bought in Japan) has a tag which says:
"
We sell functions
cool but real
100% le coq sportif
Golf collection
"

Can anyone understand what they really tried to say? Maybe its easy for someone who knows Japanese language.

Sorry no picture.

Being Japan, you're more likely to see that particular text on a toddler's t-shirt. Or an oba-chan's tote bag.

Well, if Huffington Post can make an article out of stuff lifted from twitter, I can make a post.
