Anyone else annoyed by the stream of MitsuiSumitomo Youtube "Enjoy your cashless" commercials? Nothing like a bank that keeps asking "What is money?"

[wagyl]

Youtube ... commercials?

When the first Eggslut popup shop opened temporarily a couple of years ago, I was all jazzed to report on this great new Japanese-engrish weirdness.
I took "Slut" pictures and wrote up a nice 150-word post extolling the newest wonder of engrish only to discover that...

Eggslut
wikipedia.org/wiki/Eggslut
Eggslut is a fast food restaurant in Los Angeles and Las Vegas known for its signature dish "The Slut", a coddled egg on pureed potatoes.
The name refers to a chef who simply adds an egg to everything to make it better. The first public use of it was by chef Anthony Bourdain in Season 6, Episode 5, of his show No Reservations, which aired on February 2, 2009...
..."Eggslut" falls into a category of "quirky" restaurant names, but that "the collision of the word 'egg' and 'slut' doesn't exactly encourage the appetite"...
.More slutiness...

Also, I hate coddled eggs...bad history with me.

COOLSTORY.jpg

C.S.B.: I was a teenage vivisectionist
My first lab job when I was 19 years old, was to yank out and dissect the brains to weigh the "pipping bodies" from the brains of living chick embryos.

From incubation day 10 to hatching day 20-22, every morning at 6am I had to crack open 50 eggs, dump out squirming embryos floating in a mass of raw egg parts which looked/smelled like coddled eggs. Then I had tweeze and rip out from the wiggling brains the embryo's pipping body that was 20% the size of a peppercorn.

To this day, I cannot eat a poached, coddled, or raw egg.

Japan pricing fun....I think it was $8 or $9 in the US.

Damn Taro.....and I thought balut was bad.

Since the TOKYO MEhTRO is running late on the release of their monthly マナーポスター(Manner Poster), I will pass these blasts from the past.

Often the official website for the TOKYO MEhTRO's マナーポスター creates "found poetry" such this month's prize-winning verse:

Jesus, Taro. I thought this was just another bit of your fine creative writing output, in order to exaggerate what they had done. But it actually says that.

There are enough of those signs in my neighborhood that I'd prefer the few idiots who leave dog shit in the flowerbeds. At least it dries and doesn't ugly up the place like all the signs.
