I was wondering where Canuck got his avatar from. Looks like I found where it came from. Not to mention the entertainment value I got from it.

and no the title is not a typo.

That was the origional clip, Arnold made more;

(Checkout peace out, and the trike rididng)
http://www.japander.com/japander/index.htm

Even my Japanese and Korean guests wrinkled their faces up and some of them look almost round eyed at times, then look perplexed, when I show them that series of commercials.

Apparently it cannot be translated easily and has more to do with social position more than anything?

As for my Avatar, I ripped a still out of the film clip a full 8 months before dude put the thumb up on the site. I'm sure there are subtle differences.

PS: Any Japanese-Literate Descenters please explain this series of commercials and wth are they printing on Arnold's forehead?

Actually, I'm the reason why Canuck has that as an avatar. I posted that very video a couple of years ago. However, it also got bash a little worked up because I gave the thread the title "Those crazy japs". Long story short, he came close to accusing me of being a racist over it. ;)

Sorry Krom, you'd be incorrect. I saw Bash do it.

Yeah, but thats all in the past though. :) And before anyone accuses me of taking a pot shot at bash, I'm not. All I did was state what happened in that thread. I'm not one to really hold a grudge over petty crap like that. I still lurb you bash. ;)
