Take Anything You Want

2010 May 23

From the makers of I Have A Bad Case Of Diarrhea comes an English lesson on how to beg for your life to be spared when confronted by two bandana-wearing gaijin bandits.

This is an episode from Zuiikin’ English (英会話体操), a Japanese television series originally aired in 1992 by Fuji Television. The series combines English language lessons with gymnastic exercise programs.

    Ahhh… that brings back memories… My MIL actually had a tape of that program back in the olden days…

    I reckon “I have a bad case of diarrhoea” would’ve stopped the mugging!

    Where do i start?

    It’s uncanny…i actually dance like that. I’m a little embarrassed now.

    I love the armpit close-up 0:50 seconds into it.

    And i love the 2 varieties of the purple bike-shorts…the short and the real short!

    ohh, yes… gaijins as robbers. Nice example of racism in Japan ( “Bad things only come from abroad, we are perfect”)
