Nonsense English

Especially on kids clothes, the Japanese love to print nonsense English statements. And, of course, in advertisements. I never know if they make them this way on purpose, or if it just doesn't matter.

Sometimes, things are really simple, sort of the way I would think of Japan: Tatami mats and futons you have to fold away during the day, ikebana flower arrangements, a beautifull ceramic bowl of rice on the wooden table, fung shui and stuff. But most of the time it is just hysterical. A tremendous information overflow, preferably with noice and blinking lights, and everything so very close. The homes are small, there are many people. After a couple of weeks in Japan, Hanoi feels spacious!

It is clean, though, and often outside feels like inside.
