Thanks for saving me effort. Gratefully ninja'd.

OMG never bring that up again. Some one showed me that not too long ago too...

at least I am pretty sure this is Japanese.

Why is the Telly-Tubby baby at the end?

That's pretty much what I would have put. That's some weird ass shit. Although that Pikmin video is pretty weird too.

Okay... seriously.. What, the, Fuck! Did I just watch?

I just... I give up...

Nobody gets it...

No, I don't think YOU get it. Nowhere in these threads is the direct assumption made that all of Japan is like this all the time. By no means does ANYBODY with half a brain think that Japan is the only country capable of putting out random and disturbing shit. YouTube Poop is a very good testament to that.

The only reason we take such an interest in the weird stuff Japan puts out is because it's so unfamiliar--it's a whole new flavor of weird most of us have never seen before. It's like watching porn for the first time; strange things you didn't even realize were possible unfolding right before your eyes.

The problem I have with it is that not everybody sees it the way you do. There are plenty of people out there who don't grasp that this is not the way Japan is all the time. I see it all too often in some people I know who wish they could come here, or I get asked by friends outside the country about the latest stupid thing they saw and going, "You live THERE now?" It does have an effect on people, maybe not on you, but on others, yes it does. And perhaps I should clarify that I am not saying we can't have a good laugh at the insanity, but with other things, we simply say, "that was weird". With Japanese things, people seem to say "that was weird... Japan is so weird." Why is it that with Japan you link the weird stuff to the country's culture, while with other things you don't? That's the question I have.

In other news, these things exist.
95% of California is not San Francisco, but that hardly matters when you talk about weird things coming out of California.

Creepiest. Shit. Ever. I haven't even seen x-rated stuff this disturbing.

Okay... seriously.. What, the, Fuck! Did I just watch?

I think it's pretty clear on its face. It's an after-school club.

Umm...can I just choose to answer the thread topic with "Japan"?

 

[CarpathianMuffin]

Hentai's pretty weird to me... but no less weird than all the crazy stuff that is on American TV. Japan isn't really so strange when you really get down to it. Every nation has their bizarre madness going on that people in those countries would prefer to pretend do not exist. I'm sure all of us can think of some wild stuff from our own countries that we would wish did not come from our nations, right?

Japan does not have a monopoly on "strange stuff" is all I'm trying to say. :3

Pretty much, ya. Well said.


On topic, this is possibly the weirdest that I've seen from Japan. Thankfully it was meant to be. And I've seen far stranger.

I' just gonna leave this here....


Seriously, this is in a toilet, in Japan and it moves toward you yodeling wen you sit down.
I'd rather wet/poo at the table of the restaurant than confront that thing.

 

[Shadowfaze]

The weirdest thing? That would be 'Chikan". Look it up if you're curious.
