 Wrong: Betelnut Beauty Action Figures
Betelnut Beauties. That's what they call this phenomenon of sexual objectification in Taiwan... young women with street vendor carts selling betel nuts... it's all the rage to combine high-protein snackery with upskirts over there, apparently (hmm...here too) and leaving no merchandising stone unturned, it wasn't long before the desk accessory was available:

I have a friend who collects these toys from vending machines. they are SWEET! I wish we got them over here. but then you'd have some idiot trying to eat one and die and then there'd be law suits and teh toys would become huge and crappy.
Man, I need to lay off the coffe. It makes me snarky. On the protien/up skirt thingy... I ahve so many dirty jokes in mind right now they just bottlenecked and almost blew my head off. Oh look. There was one... _________________ Witty Saying |

Is betelnut available in the States?
Gotta try it! (I'm sure the American version of the Betelnut Beauty is available in the states, even, improbably, in Seattle...) _________________ "...big haired girls? Impressed. Small haired girls? Not so impressed..." |
