@ Anon and spencer:

it took me a minute to get the (horribly racist) "joke." i thought "are their eyes 3/4-closed because they're tired from working long hours? drunk on the job? masturbating (after all, i was seeing it here)?" then i saw the logo at the bottom, and i remembered those other racist ads for the chinese restaurant, and i put it all together... yeah, super-offensive. and stupid. did actual Japanese people (client-side) approve this?
