Well, we sometimes wear things with Chinese characters on them because they look cool. Who knows what they say?

I once saw a very proper young Thai lady in a nice section of Bangkok wearing a t-shirt with stylish English writing on it forming a sentence you would only hear spoken at an extremely drunken bachelor party.

I think nowadays you can see a lot of proper young American ladies wearing t-shirts with stylish English writing on it forming a sentence you would only hear spoken at an extremely drunken bachelor party.

Just check out your local Urban Outfitter.

This one went below and beyond, trust me.

scary, hopefully more comprehensible than their t-shirts

I was told that often the Japanese choose English words for t-shirts based solely on how they sound or feel in the mouth. The meaning is not important.

One of the things I find funny about Japanese Anime is that "magic words" are usually in English.
 
I found it interesting that the anime playing in the train we took each day (it is an episodic feature on video screens in some trains, each week or so there is a new episode) was about a Japanese girl who marries a white guy (with a thick brown beard) and their decision to have a baby.

It wasn't like there were a lot of other white guys around on the train besides myself. Generally, if we weren't at Tsukiji or Mt. Takao or something, I didn't really see any.
 
When at Convivio on Saturday I decided that "Super Punch" (which was on the after dinner drinks menu) sounded like something an anime character would shout out before hitting someone.
