JB and Co have a shiny new blog, Sushimatic about all things Japanese. Go check it out. You owe it to a fellow minion ![]()
I was watching this video about sushi and how to eat it, and a thought struck me: with all the bowing that goes on in Japan, do people ever bang heads?
I know, not the most pc ponder I have ever had, but I genuinely thought that. There’s this bit near the end of the video where the two chaps are thanking the sushi-chef, and all three of them bow into the middle… Seriously, they look about a millimetre from bashing skulls.
And what would be the polite thing to do if you did clonk someone on the forehead?
