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.
