I`m getting married (again) in September and we went to Kobe to iron out some of the details of what colour we wanted certain things, what shape other things should be until we found ourselves FOUR HOURS LATER in a twitching frenzy discussing what scented bleach we wanted the toilets cleaned with and and how many molecules of oxygen to hydrogen we wanted in the water.

We got to the photo albums and which one we`d like. The lady seemed shocked that I didn`t want the one with the English texts scrawled across it. I told her I didn`t want it as it didn`t make sense grammatically and there were words mispelled in it.

It went something like “Tow hearrs beating as one in threre chamber”

I then thought it would be a good idea if you set up a company whose pitch was to act as a consultant for when people write nonsensical sentences on shop windows, t-shirts and scrawled across overpriced photo albums.

All they`d have to do is phone or email in the sentence and credit card details and for a small fee, I`d read the text ask them if they`re sure they truly want what it said scrawled on top and pocket the cash.

For those who think I`m being snobby or acting the know-it-all gaijin role, I `d employ Asians as consultants before Westerners decide to etch permanently motifs for Chinese gibberish instead of “honour” or “strength”

I don`t think this is a new idea as I think I saw it in Mutant Frog. But it`s a pretty good idea for a business.
