Why Japanese clothes are funny.



This is Joss, co-vegetarian gaijin, who weirdly enough once visited Inverurie, with his very beautiful wife, Giita.



It would seem that Joss either has an freakishly small head, or the Japanese want to make cycling (and doing more or less anything on a windy day) very difficult for him.

... And now I'm in fits of laughter because I'm imagining someone with a gigantic head actually wearing that.

Why Japanese food is funny.

Note: apart from the couple that I've reposted in order to add to the compilation, these were all taken in the last week or so. That's what the concentration of stupidly-named food is like here at the moment. These are just the best ones.

It's a Crazy Big Parfait...



... And some ironically named coffee.



Sweets are given 'interesting' names...







... While others are more 'festive'.







And as far as lunch goes, let's hope for everyone's sake that the 'Passion Santa' isn't as creepy as it sounds.
