Here’s my slapdash translation of a strange “Hair is bushy” story I just read:
Asahi.com, 19 Jan 2007 Hokkaido JAPAN: Tomy company’s Choro-Q series of toy vehicles has put out a bus miniature for a local bus line in Japan’s northern island of Hokkaido. Called the Engan Bus service, which has a destination on top of the reading “Mashike” a port town in Hokkaido, meaning “increasing hair.” The license plate of the bus reads “Ke-2323,” which in Japanese sounds like “Hair is bushy.” Only 6,000 of these toy Choro-Q buses were made and they all sold out in a week because they were thought as talismans against hair loss and baldness worries.

Sheesh, I could make up something more wacked than that. In fact I did. Check out these Japanese girls sticking Choro-Q buses up their bushy regions.
