09.29.09 JESUS, JAPAN. STOP THAT.

I have no idea what this is supposed to be. But what it appears to be is a Japanese show called “Banana Street” that will rape your childhood memories. The hosts are dressed as Bert and Ernie, and as if it wasn’t creepy enough to see two Japanese guys in elaborate yellow and orange makeup, they proceed to teach fellow Japanese people some ins and outs of the English language. Specifically, sexually harassment and swearing. Thanks a lot, muppets on beloved children’s show turned perverted Japanese reality!

My uncle used to make me visit banana street. Didn’t affect me, though.

Ho. Lee. Shit. That canned laughter was incongruous. It should have been accompanied by the sounds of children screaming and wailing.

Or, as we’re in Japan, whaling.

I’ve never been more proud to be an Illini fan.

Or more terrified.
