About Fucking Time!

[caspervonb.livejournal.com]

Completely unrelated to your post but I've just figured
out where your incredibly freaky icon came from.

Christ, that's been bugging me. For I don't know how long
now, I've been having a WTF? reaction to that horrid raccoon.

Guess it's time to write another "Dear Japan, what the fuck's
wrong with you?" letter.

It's a tanuki (http://www.onmarkproductions.com/html/tanuki.shtml), not a raccoon. There's a precedent for it's nutsack to swing sweetly from side to side. :-)

So that's who that is. I collect the white drinking cups from Japan. I have a large collection filled with geishas ninjas buddha etc. I have one that I thought was a bear with large genitalia but I see it must be tanuki. Here's a pic of one similar to mine to see if I am correct. Am I?

That it would be. Terrestial tanuki are cute little buggers. There are MANY legends of spirit tanuki in Japan as well.

BTW, unless I am mistaken, the "badger" servant of the letcherous monk on Inuyasha is actually a tanuki.

I love Inuyasha!

BTW....thank you for teaching me something new today. More trivia to clutter my mind. I can't wait to tell people the story behind my cup with large genitals!

Traditionally, one would leave offerings of saki to the tanuki idols.

I'd like to try Saki.
