Re: Best of both worlds...
Hi Austin,
My son lived in Japan for six months last year, teaching english.
He wrote this in his blog he was doing about his time in Japan.
Japanese symbols gone wrong - (Sorry can't post that one..)
The symbol on your right, meaning stupid, is one of the many Kanji characters that you will see on the apparel and skin of North Americans, a popular fashion fad that began in the mid to late 90's. Unfortunately the fad demanded a strong grasp of the Chinese/Japanese writing system, Kanji, in order to accurately select the appropriate symbol. As a result, there are many excitingly inappropriate Kanji symbols walking around North America that indicate wonderfully derogatory statements about the people who bear them.
So I was wondering what the symbol on the case says?
Jim
