Attach Us! We Are Hot Japanese Men!

The Lecturing Drunk

I am not making this up.

Things I don’t understand:

  1. Japanese popular culture
  2. The very idea of “cell phone charms”

Things I do understand:

  1. Drunkenness
  2. Drunkenness coming in stages

These things come together in the “drunken salaryman” charms, which I recently read about at Inventorspot.

The stages of being dunk [sic] according to these little plastic dudes are:

  1. The Lecturing Drunk (The guy in the picture up there)
  2. The Uninhibited Drunk
  3. The Angry Drunk
  4. The Morose Drunk
  5. The Nauseated Drunk
  6. The Unconscious Drunk

Yes, I’ve seen all of those. I would admit to having been all of them as well, but I recently learned my father-in-law occasionally reads this blog.

I have no interest in hanging little dolls off my cell phone, but it makes me laugh that there is a market somewhere for these things.
