  1. “This is Gari. Nobody knows what it’s made from.”

    LOL, that made me think of Anchorman:

    Ron Burgundy: Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means a whale’s vagina.

    Veronica Corningstone: No, there’s no way that’s correct.

    Ron Burgundy: I’m sorry, I was trying to impress you. I don’t know what it means. I’ll be honest, I don’t think anyone knows what it means anymore. Scholars maintain that the translation was lost hundreds of years ago.

    Veronica Corningstone: Doesn’t it mean Saint Diego?

    Ron Burgundy: No. No.

    Veronica Corningstone: No, that’s – that’s what it means. Really.

    Ron Burgundy: Agree to disagree.

  2. You know, you shouldn’t see this video if you are actually learning Japanese !! I could find myself talking in funny comedic way when I meet the Prime Minister. Embarrasing.

    But now I’d love to go check out a sushi bar and see if people use special language while pouring drinks. In Spanish, don’t forget to use the special phrase “cha-cha-cha” when the drink level in the glass reaches your expectation.
