Apparently the Kanji on the sign says “Zettai Reizoku” 「絶対隷属」 meaning absolute slave or absolute subordination. Not sure where the face-hole sign board originates from or even what it is advertising as it is not as direct as the picture of that arsehole/asshole (depending on where you’re from) featured on hamedori (a Japanese term describing filming or photography of sexual activity from a first-person point of view).

What face-hole would you choose? Dominance or submission?

Are you looking for happiness? Look no further! Hotei, the God of Happiness, is waiting for you in a cave behind the Jōchi-ji temple in Kamakura. Hotei is a Japanese Shinto God and, as the sign implies, he could be confused as the patron of chikan, sukebe and train gropers when in fact he is the patron of the weak and children, fortunetellers and bartenders.

When the brutal humidity of a sultry Japanese summer starts to pack a punch and you struggle to endure the sweltering heat trapped in your energy-conserving office or crammed on a crowded peak hour train, it’s time to unwind pool side at Tokyo Summerland where you can have a relaxing splash in the peaceful tranquility of their abandoned wave pool. Hurry now whilst there is still space in the pool in the upper left corner.

Don’t forget to check out the Mexican wave pool action in the embedded video below.

Fist bump to Loco in Yokohama for shining the bat-signal from the rooftop of his blog in his call for submissions to the Summer 2011 edition of Hot Fun in the Summertime! He rocked the house with the Summer 2010 edition with a groove so funktagious that he is here to do it all again. Check out my submission from last year: Beers, beaches and bikinis.
