This takes the rice cake.

I think this flash animated soy sauce commercial may be even weirder than the kitty porn ASCII flash. (Link to the soy sauce courtesy agrumer.)

In other news, I may not be able to code in TADS from scratch, but I speak enough OO conceptually to go look at the definitions for the defaults and find the bit that runs in response to a particular command. And while I stared at the thing in bafflement, I could pull it out, modify the message that gets printed appropriately, and add a line that toggles an attribute from 'nil' to 'true'. I'm sure there was a much more tidy way of writing that specific case, since the result is a duplication of the general case code with Stuff added, but hey! It runs! And it worked on the first run-through! Fluency can come with time, I'll settle for actually getting done what I want done.

Oh, my. I saw the Kikkoman one earlier today. I was frightened and also very happy that it had a pun I actually got. ("show me, show you" == "show me, shoyu" which is soy sauce. They meant that, right? I'm not just making it up?)

But I just now saw the kitty porn one, and it is weirder and more wrong. (Did it say "manko" ["pussy"] on the back of the outfit of the kitty in the first scene? No, "chinko", wonder what that is?)

Here's a rough translation of the kitty porn that browngirl posted a while back.

Ah. So it's manko and chinko for the sex bits. Dear me, that's cute.

I thought that too about the "show you" - I just posted it in elynne's journal. So if you're mad, so am I.

Yeah. Kitty porn, hatt baby (http://user.tninet.se/~prv247p/hatt/hatten.swf), and KIKKO-MAN! And the masters of the UNIVERSE!

What is squarehead dude? That's not salt, is it?

Can someone tell me why Pussycat killed herself?

The singer ought to get some kind of award ... I'm just not sure what.
