Reserve romance for the office Tokyoites!
This month’s “Train Manner” (sic) awareness poster of the Tokyo Metro subway reminds Tokyoites to reserve romance for the office.
May’s poster above is one of the monthly series for the Tokyo Metro subways aimed at cajoling the so-called ‘rude’ Japanese public to have better train manners. In previous months, posters reminded riders to:
–Don’t read newspapers
–‘Please refrain from snotty…’
– The official start of the Japanese Vomiting Season
And many, many, more….

Many more “manner” posters:
–Tokyo Metro manners for Valentine gifts
–Please be considerate of passengers getting on and off
– Please party on the train!
– “Not torture eyeballs on jostling trains“,
– “Please do it like a Moose”
– “DON’T SWIM IN FRONT OF THE TRAINS“
—”Please no umbrella golf on the platform“

The first thing that poped out in my mind when I saw this poster (and without reading your post ) is:
girl:” oh honey what a quicky bj right here and now for the road?”
guy: ” I don’t want a bj now, bitch, stay the fuck away from me!!!”
haha
Sorry Taro, but my f’ed up mind got very twisted sometimes when I see these wonderful design specimens….haha! What the metro propaganda creatives were thinking when they designed this…were they designing this under the effects of ilegal substance? haha so funny!
metro president “gosh! ppl! we need something to stop romantic behaviors within the sub, guys we need something effective”
creative designer: “UUhh…we could show up a guy and his gf trying to give him a “good head” and showing the guy pissing off for that”
M.P: “OMFG!!!that’s brilliance! ok go on with it!!”

Gotcha!
All these “Manner” (sic) posters are modified by some twisto gaijin (me) before I post them on the 3Yen.
