No smooking

Thanks to Jacob Shreve who says that he was inspired to sent us the above photo of a sign he found in a Sega Station purikura in Shibuya after he saw yesterday’s Engrish posting.

So that’s what the kids are calling it these days. Well, I’m shocked. I thought smooking was what the purikura booths were made for.

Oh Dear!! (I’m blushing) where there’s a “smoo”-king there’s always a “smoo”-queen.As any good british lad will tell you.That word is definately worth a search.
And no..I’m not talking about the Welsh word for cave.

To be honest, I can do without the smooking and the smooqueen. I defy anyone, however, to take away my right to smork.
