Super Terrific Japanese Thing: Schoolgirl Uniform Cellphone Straps
A couple of weeks ago, I made the claim that 40% of the Japanese economy is based on pedophilia. No one argued with me. I wish they had, because it’s hard to argue against this:
Yes, these are trinkets for your cellphone of schoolgirl uniforms. There are 20 to choose from.
And they are all based on real, actual school uniforms worn by female students in Japan. Apparently, the 20 selected are the most “popular” schools, although I’m not sure if that’s rated by attendance, the look of the uniforms themselves, or how it easy it is to abduct students in-between classes.
