wha??

Saw this sign from the community bus the other day...not sure as to what type of hair salon this exactly is, too scared to check it out...only in Japan could places have names like this!

p.s. today is a National Holiday, Shubun no Hi (Autumn Equinox Day), though Autumn is nowhere in sight. The humidity has returned and so has the heat.

As soon as this came up on my screen, I thought: "No, must work, have deadline!" But, come on, I HAD to comment on this one...I love love the way English is used in other parts of the world (sweetly confusing or just mangled), and this is an awesome example!

Hee hee. It's probably one of those weird literal translations.

Ack! It's kinda funny/creepy at the same time...sheesh! Sorry to hear about the weather though. Humidity, yikes!

K and S said...

I should talk about the weather being hot all the time Rowena, it has taken a 180 and is now nippy :)

Take care.
