The problem is that Japanese doesn't translate well into English, because there are so many turns of phrase (like "turn of phrse" for instance. How does one "turn" a "phrase"?) But the idea of instructions on chop sticks intrigues me. we should do this for everything: cups, doorknobs, fire, eye lids, grass, and my personal favorite...toilet paper. Unroll specified amount, wrap around hand, massage crevase. Just think of the warnings we could include on these devices. ooo, there are simply too many jokes we can make! it makes my brain hurt.
Massage crevase. . .my brother ladies and gentelmen. . .massage crevase.
I am filled with undieing love for you Dr. P
How would you like that to be your job title: "Crevasse Masseur"
Hmmmm. What exactly are you trying to do with this toilet paper?
