“Yatta!”, a Japanese exclamation meaning “We did it!”, is a 2001 parody song by a fictional Japanese band called Green Leaves (はっぱ隊 Happa-tai). The song is a send-up of the boy band craze and is portrayed by some of Japan’s most well-known comedians wearing nothing but underwear with a large green leaf on the front.
Lady Gaga celebrated the 35th anniversary of Hello Kitty, the world’s most iconic pussy, by posing for a Sanrio-themed photo shoot with famed photography duo Markus Klinko and Indrani.
Released in 1980, Turning Japanese was the second single by the band The Vapors and is popularly interpreted to be a euphemism for masturbation as it is believed to euphemistically refer to the face a male makes as he spanks the monkey.
