Read Japanese? What ad did I get?
I was in Japan for a day yesterday. A man was passing out tissues with an ad. Some people refused to accept it.
What did I get? An ad for an hourly hotel? Or an ad for a store with DVD's and private booths? http://rrh.jp |
I'm actually glad those people don't bother to give me stuff since I'm a foreigner. Now if only they'd get a hint from the name on the mailbox and stop leaving junk mail (and here, they leave a ton of junk mail).

When I was in Tokyo this Summer we searched for the folks handing out the tissues and fans. Without them we probably would not have survived the heat and humidity
By the way, you will be happy to have the tissues if you go to a toilet which is not well-equiped with TP. As to what the ads are for: the ones I saw were for, among other things, beer, electronics, whisky and sun glasses. |
It is advertising for a place called Terekura (Telephone Club) Rin Rin (read it as Ring Ring, i.e. like when the phone rings) House
It is advertising for a telephone s*x establishment site. I'll spare our readers the details of what the underlying links say. |

This particular ad is adult business, more precisely a sort of prostitution, if I didn't get it wrong.

The Japanese text, a disclaimer, at the bottom of the linked page reads:
Ahead the adult contents are included from this. We refuse the admission of direction under 18 years old hard. In addition, in laws such as the criminal law Anti-Prostituion Law and each regulations Vis-a-vis the user who is lacking in utilization and moral with the object which violates You stop utilization. According to http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr :D |
Looks like another outstanding translation from Babelfish! :) :)

From the responses above, I still don't know what I got. Telephone service, video booths, prostitution, hourly hotel?
Instead of the URL on the tissues, here a photo that I took of the package. Any help in translation? A word for word translation is not necessary, just an explanation of what kind of business is this? http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/cb15c/ |

A word for word translation is not necessary, just an explanation of what kind of business is this? 1. "The exciting life of a UA flight attendant is within your reach." 2. "Mori Serviced Apartments come with a complete staff in each building." 3. "My cat Smidgen charges ¥1600/hour. Please call 03-3209-5959." All three are more accurate than Babelfish. ;) |

Specially if you want the special "CAT scan" massage. Will leave 12 deep grooves in your back (or front, for a bit more money), since he has six fingers in each paw. |
Such as one might find associated with a non-US based gentile? ;)
