A new cut of steak for your dinner party – filet minion. 😆 And yes! I know this was a particularly despicable joke.

I love and laugh at this, though I’m fully cognizant of how few people will understand why I find this funny, or why in the world I titled it “Vintage Japanese Prison Porn.”

So, let me explicate…

Why Vintage Japanese Prison Porn

• The art style is a fusion of Western Cartoon and Japanese Ukiyo-e, which also influenced Western art;
• She’s obviously a high-ranking Yakuza, probably an oyabun, given her level of tattooing;
• The origin of Yakuzas’ tattooing is from 17th-19th Centuries Japanese practice of irezumi kei (tattoo penalty), where criminals were tattooed as part of their punishment;
• She’s tied up Shibari or Kinabku style – you pendants can argue about which term is right – which was derived from Hojōjutsu, a method of restraining, torturing, and displaying prisoners in feudal Japan.

So, there you have it – why my humor and snark was engaged by this image and why I’ve titled it here as “Vintage Japanese Prison Porn.” 😉

Well, there’s a salient argument for trans as dating options. 😆 There’s a lot better chance of casual clothes, sugary cereals or toaster pastries / waffles, and classic cartoons such as Thundercats with a transgurl – one they’re past their hyper-girlie phase – than with a woman.

Lucky Eddie (Hamingju Játvarðr) may have been portrayed throughout the years as Hägar The Horrible’s rather stupid and bumbling sidekick, but he possessed and dispensed great wisdom. As is made clear above, a proper martini is shaken, not stirred. 😉

Wives – never satisfied and that’s the Gods’ honest truth. Do what they demand that you do and they’ll still invent a reason to stay angry. 😆
