What’s a Fortune Cookie?!

, , , , , , , , , ,

Did you know the Chinese didn’t invent the fortune cookie?

Even though it’s served as a Chinese dessert, the fortune cookie’s actual creation is still undecided as a few Japanese have been fighting over who actually invented them. The first reports of the cookie came from the United States in the 1890s or early 1900s.

What is really funny is watching Chinese people try a Fortune Cookie for the first time.

Polite Toilet Training

Believe it or not this isn’t the first animated clip about potty training to be posted on this site.

I guess the Japanese are very insistent on letting cartoons teach their kids to poop.

This one is called “Pants Pankuro”…

Now if they could make a cartoon for adults teaching them to flush after using a public toilet.

Funky Forest

Remember this unexplainable picture?

When I posted the photo it was brought to my attention that it was from a movie called “Funky Forest”. Recently a reader named Lillie sent me a link to that actual scene and I was thrilled because I thought I’d finally figure out what was going on.

Now that I’ve watched the video, I’m even more lost than before.

So now that I’ve seen it, I’m even more disturbed to know that the machine is actually a butthole that gives birth to a small asian man.

I think I’m officially done with Funky Forest.

What The Asian Gaming Console?!

If you thought the last Playstation from Japan was bulky and ugly, take a look at this original concept art.

I’d say we’re lucky they went with the current look because this is going to haunt my dreams.

Olympic Chinese Rapper

What exactly he is rapping about is unclear since I do not speak chinese but I’m assuming it’s the Olympics due to the rings colored into his hair and his fashionable dragon-themed 2008 glasses.

Either that, or he’s rapping about the new Chinese cabs that have license plates that say fresh and also include dice in the mirror.

Rogue Escalator?!

, , , , , , , , , ,

I can understand the danger of a rogue train.

There is understandable fear when you think of an out of control elevator.

An escalator on the other hand…

It’s really as simple as turning around and walking off.

But not in Japan as it seems at least 20 people were injured with one even breaking a leg. I’m pretty sure if they had a “personal space rule” it could have been avoided.
