It's racist for you to judge them by our standards, especially because they're not as good as us.
I submit that any of our Starburst commercials look just as weird to them.
The best reality show that will never exist would be to have a bunch of Japanese ad makers come to America to try to make commercials for our products.
source: http://www.palisadespost.com/lifesty...nt.php?id=5555, but I'd recommend watching the episode of 20/20 to get the full visual effect.
The story is as follows: Tom Montgomery, a 47-year-old married New York factory worker and father of two daughters, is a frequent visitor to Internet game rooms. On one site, he comes across the moniker 'talhotblond' and strikes up a conversation with 18-year-old Jessi, who lives in West Virginia. Using the screen name 'marinesniper,' Montgomery, claiming to be a 19-year-old Marine waiting for deployment to Iraq, strikes up an online rapport with Jessi. A steamy online romance ensues, with Montgomery spending more and more of his evenings immersed in this cyber fantasy.
According to neighbors, Montgomery was a kind man, a person who was on his daughters' swim team board and a church member. As the months go on, he becomes more and more smitten with Jessi, who has posted wholesome photos from her high school basketball and softball teams, and graduation and prom. Jessi's language becomes increasingly graphic and eventually she sends sexy underwear to Montgomery.
Montgomery's wife discovers the underwear and sends a letter and a photo of the family to Jessi to let her know she's not communicating with a young buffed Marine, but rather her middle-aged husband.
Jessi then contacts another 21-year-old Brian Barrett, a part-time student, who works at the same factory as Montgomery, to verify the story. Barrett and Jessi hit it off and he becomes enamored with the pretty girl.
While still communicating with Barrett, Jessi contacts Montgomery again. She pits the two men against each other. Barrett backs off, but Jessi doesn't let Montgomery know, playing on his jealousy.
In January 2009, Barrett is murdered and Montgomery is arrested. Police find Montgomery's messages from Jessi and worry about the young girl's safety. They contact police in West Virginia, who go to Jessi's home. They don't find the teen, but do find Mary, Jessi's frumpy-overweight mother with brown hair, who has been posing as her daughter, without her daughter's knowledge.
'The mother [Mary Shieler] never broke any laws,' Schroeder says. 'She was never convicted of anything.' Schroeder explains that the woman had an adoring husband [Tim], but was bored, lonely, had no job, no career and the Internet was everything to her. She and Tim later divorced.
'This woman got away with a virtual accessory to murder,' Schroeder says. 'She didn't do anything illegally, but morally she did something unspeakable.' In a video captured during her divorce hearing, the Internet affair and the death of Barrett was brought up. Shieler responded, 'Get over it, I have.'

Night gathers, and now my snark begins. It shall not end until it gets hacky. I shall take my wife(... please!), hold no lands, father no negative ratings. I shall wear no crowns and win no AST Top 20 Rankings. I shall live and die by my posts. I am the LOL in the darkness. I am the fire that burns against the trolls, the sneer that guards the realms of men from Kyle Cease's Comedy Boot Camp. I pledge my life and honor to the AST's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come.
We Satans like it here.
This one is just for Berliner:

I have to admit, I watched this a couple of times. That farm with the pumpkins is next to my parent's house. I'm actually standing in front of that field in the suits page.

Wait. The wife posed as the husband posing as an 18 year old girl?

Oh, David Allan Coe must be out of jail again.

I hope Japan is as crazy as this commercial.
Why's she Caucasian, I wonder.

White people are exotic and alluring in Japan. We're their Brazilians.
