Hi Megan Rose,
Thank you for a wonderful lecture and for answering my question about age in Harajuku communities. What you said about barriers regarding physical disability, economic standing, etc. was fascinating. (Every time you said “that’s another lecture”) it got even more interesting!

Yeah before Greek yoghurt became a thing here a few years ago, I had trouble explaining it because I was using the wrong word

I think most people would get the meaning after a moment’s thought anyway, so the mistake really isn’t a big deal. This particular one just made me giggle.
(Yes, I was given to understand that the Chinese translation is perfectly accurate)

Not ideal for an auto shop🤣

(While we’re on Nagoya shop names, my other favourite is in Osu and called ‘Boobies Tattoo’)

That’s what I thought it said the first time I read it🤣
November 26, 2024 at 12:14 PM
Yeah it’s not that anyone would actually misunderstand, but it’s still great🤣

Yes the Japanese clearly says tongs🤣

I don’t know what we officially call it🤔🤣

So long as you pay first I guess you can touch it with whatever you like 🤣
