“Their discs get to number 1, they have repeated million-seller chat-topping hits. But that’s because their fans are incredibly desperate, sometimes buying 10 discs each.”

Yes, as many as 10 each!


I remember reading about this poo poo years ago, that there for example is from a dude buying 3000 copies of the same CD, and it's easy to find other examples of people buying hundreds, if not thousands for this purpose. Idol culture is scary.

(e: of course like most stuff in the media this "thing" is grossly exaggerated, but a few crazy fans actually did/do this stuff)

You have to remember, this is only a tiny tiny fraction of the population in a few countries.

But it's so much more fun to antagonize entire countries based on subcultures :(

Here's one of my favorite bizarre Japanese fashion statements, known as "mori." It roughly translates into "heap," since it's all about caking on as much makeup and hair product as possible.



Are you sure you're thinking of mori? Last time I checked it meant forest/woods and was a style all about dressing up in layers of desaturated earthy-colored loose-fitting dresses, knit-sweaters and frills.


e: my ex-girlfriend was way into that stuff :gay:

e2: gently caress, this is the funny pictures thread and this definitely isn't about funny pictures. Sorry.

Oh, I never knew they subtitled it like that :downs: Lise (Lis-eh) and Lisa (Lis-ah) are two different names where I come from :norway:

Earnestly complaining about distasteful things on a site called Something Awful. Top notch posting.

Yeah, loving PC fun police amirite? Don't you know it's hilarious to post :airquote:ironic:airquote: discriminatory stuff, dweeb? :smug:


Seriously though, I get that the site is called Something Awful but surely we can keep that poo poo to 4chan.
