Tyre Slasher Just Wanted To Meet Women

Oh no Mr Harada, slashing women’s car tyres as a way to start up a conversation is no way to find a wife. The Japanese man has been accused of slashing up to a 1000 tyres in a desperate attempt to meet women. Mr Harada would use a screwdriver to puncture the tire then offer to help change it when the woman returned to her car.  Gee whiz , he’s a keeper, Craigslist would be so proud.

Boo Baby Red Panda

Poor little critter got the beejezus scared out of him by an enormous welly boot . Silly little thing!!!

Pumpkin Burger Anyone?

Hey Loons, for a limited time only Burger King Japan is offering a Pumpkin Burger on their menu. Hmm, sounds scrumptious. Also includes  bacon, lettuce, a beef patty and a creamy mixed nut sauce …. just so they can neutralise the health benefits. I’m guessing McDonalds will probably respond with say a McBroccoli Burger?

Deadly Pickles

Hell has no fury like a contaminated pickled Chinese cabbage. So far 10 people, mostly elderly, are dead in Japan from eating the e-coli infested  pickles processed by a factory in Sapporo. More than 103 others have been upchucking and feeling downright sick from the nasty bacteria.

You Can Thank Me Later

Just letting you know Loons, the gonorrhea superbug has spread to Japan. Have a nice day.

Piranha Sushi Anyone?

Feet up Japan , three piranhas have been caught in a river in Atsugi. The fishes were about 4 inches long. Hmm, you sure they just aren’t mutant koi?

Yohio

OMG, Yohio the 16 year old Swedish boy who plays an electric guitar, dresses like a doll and can sing in three different languages, has found success in Japan. Seems like Bieber’s got some competition.

Japanese Smart Phone Covers

Food theme inspired smart phone covers are selling like hot cakes in Japan. Go figure.

Catch Me If You Can

Weren't there three of us?

If you happen to see a young penguin frolicking in the Kyu-Edo River, no worries, that’s just an escapee from the Tokyo Sea Life Park . The little Humboldt critter scaled a wall to freedom and is now enjoying the good life. Park officials have tried in vain to catch the penguin but it’s a shifty little bugger and swims at incredibly fast speed. Good luck with that!

VCRs Are Officially Dead

Honey, did you record MacGvyer?

OMG, NO!!! Panasonic have announced they will no longer be making VCRs for domestic use in Japan. But don’t fret Loons, China and Slovakia will continue to make them, despite half the population not knowing what the hell a VCR is. Hmm, I wonder if they are still making VHS tapes?
