The Japanese: Nuked Too Much or Not Enough?
byVanderleunonSeptember 27, 2017
I don’t even want to get into the cross-cultural subtexts concerning children and fleshy, pendulous objects spraying milk on them from above. As the Japanese would say, “らくのうマザーズＣＭ らくのう牛乳 牛乳ビーム編 ! “
I herd that UFOs are usually for stealing and mutilating cows, but I guess these cows weren’t taking any bull.
The important thing to understand is that most Japanese people hate milk’s taste and texture, and find it hard to digest. But they make kids drink it every day so they’ll grow up big and tall, like post-war Japanese. (They actually have teachers watching kids eat in class in elementary school, so they can make sure the kids all drink their ration of school milk.)
So once the ad agency is selling something that they personally find disgusting, they usually go full bizarre. In this case, I honestly think that the UFO is a sign that milk is still seen as something associated with foreigners and invasion.
Fun fact: the most popular milk flavoring in Japan and Korea is “banana.” Which is why banana-flavored milk is starting to show up in my local grocery’s dairy case.

That was, simultaneously, the funniest AND most appalling thing ever.

That didn’t go as wrong as it might have.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Reckon what do they mean by that?
At least we know there are ten children in Japan!
According to the googlator it says: “Lamonghua Mothers CM Milk Milk Beam Milk Beam!”
