[AccruedExpenditure]

Makes sense to me.

 

[Ladies Man]

is that for or against smoking?
i'm confused

 

[Chronoshock]

Oh noessssssssss now you get second hand smoke through your sunburnt, mosquito-pocked skin

 

[RagingBITCH]

rofl

 

[HardcoreRobot]

is it to make smokers more cautious of accidentally burning others with their cigarettes?

Whisky Tango Foxtrot.

1 million plus words in the English language and they still couldn't find the right ones to translate to.

 

[Fingolfin269]

Oh, I thought it meant Bus Stop.

Perhaps you would like to translate the English version back into Japanese?

The rain in Spain falls mainly on the OMGWTFBBQ!

 

[MAME]

keep in mind guys: this is a HUGE advertisement in the middle of the busiest place I've been to in my life. (Same place as Lost in Translation when the chick is walking around alone)

It must cost a fortune to put up the advertisement

Already translated it, see my post for the translation

 

[Kadarin]

Going to the website on the ad is of no help, either...

Did you see any dark tanned, crazy, Shibuya girls? I heard that fad is dying out now.

"Please to not use arm to stub out your cigarettes! Please to NOT feed the misquotes! Sun to be shining on arm will shine on ARM!"

 

[nakedfrog]

Yeah, they were everywhere. They do NOT look good

 

[glen]

more on their web site.

 

[dighn]

on i get it. it's saying that the cigarrate could damage your bare arm just like the sun and mosquittos... need more sleep

 

[MAME]

I'll post another one I have from the same company tomorrow. It's also pretty funny and (it wasn't on their site

 

[slackin]

Actually, the English there is exactly how its phrased in the Japanese. That area is a tremendously busy place so its saying to be careful not to burn people, in a round about way.

 

[Looney]

Er i understood it... it's telling people to be careful with their cigarettes, since people that walk in the summer are wearing short sleeve shirts (so becareful of burning their arms).

Heck, this should be a problem in winter too, i wouldn't appreciate my clothes being burnt by cigarettes.
