“The Life and Sex Museum” Welcomes You, But Remember It’s Not a Sex Museum!

“The Life and Sex Museum” Welcomes You, But Remember It’s Not a Sex Museum!

Sex museums can be found all over the world exhibiting various kinky items.  Japan alone has quite a few.  According to Wikipedia Japan, there are six sex museums or hihokan in Gunma Prefecture.

This is much to the chagrin of the Life and Sex Museum who are listed among them, but don’t consider themselves a sex museum at all.

Thanks to Shigenobu Matsuzawa, the blogger scouring the heartlands of Japan for the oddest attractions like the bicycle theme park, we can take a virtual tour of this tribute to the miracles of life and sex and see what it has to offer.

But remember – It’s not a sex museum!

**That being said, a lot of it is probably not safe for work.**

Japanese Mud Porn: What, You Never Heard of It?

Japanese Mud Porn: What, You Never Heard of It?

This video was posted up on YouTube on 1 November with the title, “Sprung in Scheisse fur 100,000 Dollar! Crazy Stupid People 2012.”

According to the video’s description:

“it’s Japanese Reality Show Titled Jump Into Mud Puddle – Where contestants need to dive into the mud pool landing on their head first and the longer they stay in the the mud the chances to win the game increase. And the winner gets 8 Million Yen which is around 100,000$” [sic x 7]

Well RocketNews24 would like to set the record straight: this is not a TV show. That would be sick. This scene was taken from the adult video Mud Lady 3.

Well that should wrap everything up. I guess it’s time to take lunch.

Wait a sec. Don’t tell me you all aren’t familiar with mud porn?! Alright, let’s take a tour of the murkiness that is Japanese Fetish porn. First stop, Mud!

※I’m going to go ahead and say there are images that might not be safe for work, but you probably already assumed that※

Rural Rest Stop Aims to be the Premier Location for Jet Black Food

Rural Rest Stop Aims to be the Premier Location for Jet Black Food

Rest stops in Japan tend to be a little different from their western counterparts.  Aside from offering drivers a chance to stretch their legs and powder their noses, they often offer unique goods characteristic of the area.  Sometimes the rest stops are even the final destinations for summer road trips.

A perfect example of a unique rest stop is the Ranzan Parking Area (RPA) in Saitama prefecture along the Kanetsu Expressway.  Here you can get your hands on two specialty dishes, ice cream and curry, both black as midnight.

And before you say it: no, neither dishes use squid ink.

McDonald’s Japan Removes Menus from Its Counters, Everyone Suddenly Feels Awkward

McDonald’s Japan Removes Menus from Its Counters, Everyone Suddenly Feels Awkward

Starting on October 1, free morning coffee isn’t the only change you’ll notice at McDonald’s Japan. Step up to the counter and, in the space where the big menu used to be, you’ll find nothing but this sign, urging you to look up at the overhead menu to make your choice instead.

Yep, the menu has gone. From now on, customers are asked to check out a menu elsewhere in the restaurant before heading to the counter, or rely on the meal suggestion board overhead, ruining it for those of us who always just point at the picture of chicken nuggets and say “this please”, in an effort to avoid the awkward Japanese pronunciation of the word.

On the surface, this is but a minor change, but it is already having an effect on frequent visitors, and the internet is buzzing about it.

The people, they are not entirely happy. Read More
