Holy shit. I remember this from a Playboy I saw as a kid. It was a page of these jokes.

Heres a thumbnail. I can't find the full thing in a readable size though.

I actually think would make a terrific wall poster to be framed and hung in someone's room. Possibly mine. Anyone find an HD scan that I can print and frame? I'll make it worth your while - a night of Bokunka on me!

Wow this is awesome. It was just in a picture frame but without the text at the top. I mean obviously some of them are over-the-top (like the human-sized, perfectly-puckered whale anus) but I hesitate to put anything past the Japanese.

I had this on the wall behind my desk, until my boss realized it was from Playboy and made me take it down. I actually remembered some of the pieces, almost 30 years later.

[–]amake 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

In terms of sushi it's wildly fake. "Bohunka" is not a possible valid Japanese word, nor is "snafu" above it.

[–]kaisuteq[S] 11 points12 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yea, it was just a picture hanging on the wall, fairly well-hidden actually. I jokingly asked the chef if they serve that and he said, "No, everyone would be screaming."

ぼふんか

[–]amake -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Which would be "bofunka" in anything written for foreign consumption (ふ = hu is only valid in Nihonshiki rōmaji, which would not be used here). And that's still not a word.

[–]Aldog44 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

i put bofunka (hiragana) into google tranlsate and it came up with 'Do Fu pot'. sounds like a shout from skyrim, because its definently not english

[–]hawthorneluke 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Google translate is amazing. It'll try to translate anything, no matter how incomprehensible it may be to the human mind.

[–]AdrenalineMonkey 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

.. because Japanese is always transliterated the exact same way every single time

[–]amake 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Transliterated two different ways within the same document (fu in snafu and hu in bohunka)? Not likely, even for the shittiest of Engrish.

[–]hawthorneluke 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It doesn't matter how you write anything in ro-maji, apparently, considering how people write all sorts of stuff in all sorts of ways when it comes to ro-maji.

ha, hi, hu, he, ho. If you wan't to change hu to fu because it sounds like that in English, your choice, but bohunka can very easily be ぼふんか, which of course still means nothing as it is though. Indeed snafu however is impossible, but then again when you're writing in ro-maji, anything's possible it seems :/ (which is why just using hiragana is much simpler, especially if you just HAVE to change shit around to make it make more "sense" in English, which is a joke as English isn't a phonetical language anyway.)

Anyway, yeah, someone with barely any knowledge tried to make up some random Japanese words.

[–]amake 0 points1 point ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

As you yourself point out, there is both "boHUnka" and "snaFU"; even in the shittiest of Engrish they are at least (usually) consistent, indicating that one of the two is not valid rōmaji and therefore not a possible Japanese word. You can't just give it a pass because "anything goes in rōmaji". (By the way, "ro-maji" is not valid in any scheme whatsoever.)

[–]hawthorneluke 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Indeed using fu along with hu would be weird. No real discussion here though considering it is just completely made up. And lol with ローマジ and validity. I wouldn't call ローマ字 (in general) valid in anything either, considering how it takes something built completely on phonetics and breaks it down into a billion forms of mess.

[–]opallix 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It must be pretty expensive considering you'd need to kill a whole whale for one of those.

Or it might not be, considering that whale anus is not generally consumed. So someone might have a bunch of stockpiled whale anus-es somewhere out there. Hmmmm. Maybe an ad on craigslist?

Maybe if it's well cleaned it isn't that bad. You never really know. Sure, you may not like the concept, but you don't always have to have it any way you want it. That's the way you need it. Any way you want it.
