[3RA1N1AC]

Nope

 

[BlazerCaravan]

It's so stylized, it reminds me of like, a French clown or something. Japanese be racis', but whatevs.

 

[Natebishop3]

That's a picture of me!

 

[santeesioux]

White people have large noses.

 

[BlazerWookee]

I don't care who you are. That's funny right there.

 

[Natebishop3]

So is this the white guy version of black face?

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

That's a picture of me!

In that case, yes, I am offended.

 

[Natebishop3]

In that case, yes, I am offended.

I wish I had hair that thick...

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

I wish I had hair that thick...

In your nose or on your head?

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

In your nose or on your head?

I bet that gets me banned.

 

[GriLtCheeZ]

It's slightly offensive, but you know we did drop a fucking A-bomb on them.

 

[Cryptkeeper]

What's more funny is that most of the people who found this offensive were more western than Japanese.
I've seen some stuff like this made in the US aimed at poking fun at other countries much like this ad, yet i have not heard news of complaints from any of those incidents.

 

[Natebishop3]

In your nose or on your head?

But my nose is on my head.....

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

But my nose is on my head.....

That paints a grotesque picture.

Clearly a case of penis envy. That or an obsession with the Steve Martin character in the movie "Roxanne"...although he looks more like some trekki at a star wars convention.

If you've ever seen Japanese variety-game shows, this is nothing! Maybe we should look closely at the Cleveland Indians logo before judging them though.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Nah, it's funny. I can laugh at racial jokes, some people take this shit too seriously. Stereotypes are funny and sometimes true.

now if they had used a curly black wig and darkened the make up, well, that would have been offensive..

"Yaw Fied!" "No, You are the one that is fired!"

 

[3RA1N1AC]

americans only have large noses in comparison to the japanese, much like jews have large noses in comparison to americans

[riverman]

Or maybe this is an example of really shoddy, low budget plastic surgery. A nose job and a wig from the dollar store?
