Happy Monday – Takoyaki With Dog

1. You know, what I wouldn’t mind having right now is some batter. With octopus. But how can I cook it? I can only learn my epic culinary skills from animals with a strangely odd voiceover. However will I find such a learning resource…

Happy Monday – Japanese DVD Learning Fakery

1. I’m an undereducated neanderthal whom puts himself through learning stupidly difficult things for no reason at all. Case in point: the years of Japanese tuition. Over all of this time, I’ve had to endure the acting from CDs going through basic conversations, and although I’m still learning, I can’t help feeling that if a Japanese person heard them, it would be mildly amusing to them. Cue someone getting one of the English learning CDs and re-purposing the audio for non-intended circumstances…

Happy Monday – Gasby!

1. Why the heck is there a dog on this guy’s lap? Why does Japan lead the way in terms of weird yet compelling advertising? Is it even a dog? What does this have to some sort of body related product?!

I hope everyone had a good holiday feasting, and either got what they wanted, something close to what they wanted, or the funds to get what they want. Hopefully you aren’t all still stuffed.

Anyway, here is a really quite weird music video. Ok less of the weird, more of the “Damnit, this is cool!”
