Mugen Tokoroten just proves that Japan is still weird

Mugen Tokoroten just proves that Japan is still weird photo

I should be used to these types of ads from Japan by now, but for some reason I never get tired of laughing at them. I love the expression of the guy crying his eyes out laughing while he uses this little device. Uh, what are you doing there, sir?

This thing in the picture is called Mugen Tokoroten and is a gadget which dispenses the summer snack with little happy faces imprinted on the ends. Made by Bandai Asovision, it's one of those things no one needs, but inevitably someone will want. I've personally never tried tokoroten before -- have you?
