The Japanese are screwed up!
Now before you start flaming me, I'm only saying this about their video games.

I'm watching "Nocturnal Emissions" on G4 Tech TV, and they are showing some really screwed up Japanese video games.
What other country would have "mortal combat" using construction equipment? :crazy:

1. Yes!
What other country would have chocolate called "Air Crunky", panty vending machines, and a used hardware store called "Hard-off"?

2. And tentacle porn
It's so weird that hetero vanilla porn is illegal due to obscenity, but tentacle rape porn and bukakke are a-ok. :wtf:

3. I think it's because tentacle porn has a long history
I think it was either the woodblock artist Hokusai or Ando Hiroshige-- whichever one did the print of the waves at Mt. Fuji-- also did what some consider the first piece of tentacle porn ever, titled "The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife".

And this was back when Japan was still shut off from the world and ruled by a shogun (who, incidentally, was probably the biggest pervert in the country). Go figure.

4. Tentacle porn?
Now I've heard everything ... :rofl:

Who says the Lounge isn't educational?

I'll never look at a giant squid in the same way again.
