My girlfriend: "more like cracker barrel"

The guy in the middle looks like he's in a emo band from the mid 2000's

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 61 points 1 year ago

Weird way of saying "he's hot as fuck"

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 47 points 1 year ago

To each their own...

But you're objectively wrong.

Weird way of saying “there appearance inspires me to have feelings related to copulating. “

[-] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 year ago

That's just a standard kpop haircut.

In the 80s we would have called him a Curebody.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

I had Robert Smith hair in those days. Lots of ratting and Aqua Net Extra Super Hold in the pink can.

It’s somehow reassuring to see that there is occidentalism in Asia that’s every bit as absurd as orientalism in the West. Westerners get Chinese character tattoos which supposedly mean something spiritual but really are a grocery list, Asia gets T-shirts with nonsense phrases in English. The West gets tropes of the “Mystic East” which mash China, Japan, Thailand and India together into a melange of pagodas and temples, Asia gets stories set in “European” settings that combine England, Switzerland and Venice or something similarly absurd. Europe gets Fu Manchu, Asia gets Bobson Dugnutt. And now this.

It's kinda beautiful in a way

[-] lunarul@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Reminds me of this cool western design shirt I found in a store in Tokyo

It's called a "butler cafe", basically the opposite of a maid cafe.

They haven't clearly gone through hospitality academy; they brought the wrong spoon for desert and ruined my day.

I believe the proper formal phrasing is "Well excuuuuuse me, Princess!"

[-] niktemadur@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

"Sorry, your Worship", cosplaying as Leia and Han!

Let me know if anyone opens a depressed Uncle Iroh Cafe.

He seems happy and content with that tea house of his.

From left to right

Discount Rupert Grint - the real one has an ice cream van and is therefore superior.

Main protagonist syndrome

Everyone's cousin

What is this Ouran Highschool Host Club?

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 31 points 1 year ago

Are they accepting applications? It doesn't sound like an awful way to spend a few hours each day. The networking possibilities alone.

Do they have an opening for a fat, bald white guy wearing sweat pants and a stained wife beater? I could show them what a REAL white guy is like.

Each of the guys look exactly like someone who would move to Japan for the chance to serve Japanese ladies cake.

[-] SharkAttak@kbin.social 17 points 1 year ago

Well the "white men" should be handsome, so there's no hope for that dream.

[-] MacedWindow@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

The US needs host clubs too!

[-] ThePantser@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

If the US had clubs where only a certain gender or race would be allowed to be employed they would get instant lawsuits and be shut down.

[-] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 58 points 1 year ago

I don't remember seeing many male servers at Hooters.

Hooters is a better direct response to your claim, but also, for attendees:

Save $20 by being female at one of Vegas’s biggest clubs this New Year’s:

Hooters? Tilted Kilt?
