Warrior of the Japanese kitchen

My favorite blogger-megababe, Geisha Asobi (aka geisha fun), has a great photo of herself decked as a samuri warrior of the Japanese kitchen. (Since Japanese junk kitchens are the worst in the developed world it is no wonder she has to be a warrior just to survive.)

Embiggen.

Starting from the top and moving clockwise, the Japanese kitchen gagets she is wearing are:

  • Dual pizza cutters mounted on a samuri helmet made of a wok and spatulas
  • Shoulder guard made of a long-handled tempura sieve
  • Arm armor made from the bambo rolling mats for making maki type sushi
  • A wrist guard made of a green-handled spatula
  • Waist armor made of baking sheet for shell-shaped madeleine cookies
  • A dagger that is really a bambo wisk for making green tea
  • And, flat-breast plate made from a steel steamer over another bambo rolling mat

    Totally bogus ‘Black Belt’ watch

    Somebody with an overactive imagination in Cuckoo Clock Land is attempting to sell this so-called Belt Belt watch that the company says is:
    The first watch in the world that money can’t buy!*

    blackbeltwatch

    The shady deal is….
    In order to buy this watch for 3,000 Swiss Franks (2,966.94 USD), you must first submit “proof” of your black belt certificate listing its issuing date, Dojo, Sensei, and Federation. taro-bogus-black-beltHowever, as you can see on the right, anybody make up a fake black belt certificate and email it to the Belt Belt watch company.
    There is no way for the watch company to check to see whether the certificate is real because there are a bazillion small martial arts studios and dojo—Martial arts “Federations” do not keep records of students who are not competing).

    Therefore, I, Taro the Terrible, 9th-dan, proclaim all readers of the 3Yen.com are Black Belts!
    Go ahead and fill in your certificate.

    Hello Kitty’s vivisection play

    Hello Kitty appears to be alive in this vivisection play toy, doesn’t it?
    dr-romanelli hello-kitty cut
    These images and more details come from Dr. Romanelli x Hello Kitty “Anatomy” Release at Highsnobiety.com.

    I was a teenage vivisectionist‘ is the self-introductory phrase I always use. That is, at age 19, I was a work-study researcher who used to start every day by ripping out the “pipping body” from the brains of 100 live turkey poults. Therefore, this Hello Kitty’s vivisection playtime seems quite normal to me.

    Gold ‘Artifact’ of the Ancients displayed in Tokyo Japan

    It’s hard to tell the purpose of the “Ancients” in creating this gold artifact, but it’s amusing to think of all the trouble the Japanese company had deciding what to call this gold geegaw .

    Photo from ReutersPictures – 2009 Oct 7….Japan's top bullion house Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo, looks at a gold artifact using 15kg of pure gold in total more...

    Here’s a more mundane definition of “artfact,” but I am sure that somebody thought it would be good for marketing.
