I'm thinking of mailing my spleen to Hillary Duff.

TheRealMcCoy		2004-10-26 02:56:24 PM

Sounds like a sure winner, but can I mail someone else's pinkie instead?

Or maybe TommyymmoT's spleen?

A female acquaintance of mine works at a Hollywood management company. Management companies often get sent all fan mail for their actor clients. Long story short, some guy mailed his penis in a jar. Of course it was my acquaintance, the assistant to the manager, who opened the fan mail. I don't remember who the actress was--someone like Helen Hunt--but the emotional scarring was never passed on to her.

It's the kind of fiendishly simple plan that you would think would work, but it never does.

/sadder, wiser, stumpier

An unemployed gangster in Japan...

They really need to do something about the collapse of the gangland industry in Japan. The obvious answer is tax breaks for the richest 5% of Japanses gangsters, as the trickle-down will restore employment to the teeming japanese hoodlums.

Hey, it's working here, right?

FlameDuck		2004-10-26 07:44:31 PM

I guess that ended with that then?

retro128		2004-10-26 07:45:28 PM

Fun fact: The age of consent in Japan is 14 years of age.

kannuyi		2004-10-26 07:46:17 PM

thats nothing. i once mailed the state of rhode island to my girlfriend....AND it helped me score.

jayblom		2004-10-26 07:46:31 PM

What's he gonna do with a finger? At least offer a sheep or mule or something else that is USEFULL.

Tachikoma		2004-10-26 07:46:37 PM

If anyone's ever seen 'Brother' with Beat Takeshi, they know the entire reason behind the sending of the pinkie finger.

The ex-yakuza was sending the apendage as a form of his sworn word and honor.

Still creepy though.

Jesus McChrist		2004-10-26 07:47:07 PM

Long story short, some guy mailed his penis in a jar.

ASLDklsakdaoirwujokzcpzxcko came to mind.

fiftyfootant		2004-10-26 07:47:28 PM

the japanese have TWO penises???

rts		2004-10-26 07:47:47 PM

used to be a member of Japan's largest underground syndicate, Yamaguchi-gumi.

No wonder he's unemployed... Gangs need tough sounding names, not something from the back of a Pokeman box.

BillaBong		2004-10-26 07:47:57 PM

Now, what would be funny is if he did it three times.

fiftyfootant		2004-10-26 07:48:11 PM

such an advanced society...

Solid State Vittles		2004-10-26 07:48:39 PM

I can get you a toe, dude.

feffer		2004-10-26 07:48:53 PM

Her father sent it back return to sender?! Does this seem reasonable to you?

DannySpaz		2004-10-26 07:49:04 PM

her father his pinkie. Twice

I doubt there will be a third package.

grunthos		2004-10-26 07:49:25 PM

third times a charm!

fiftyfootant		2004-10-26 07:49:27 PM

(in best german accent) "It's Not Fair..."

berylman		2004-10-26 07:49:38 PM

Aaaawwww.....that's so old fashioned.

kasarul		2004-10-26 07:49:55 PM

/Appropriate

Servo		2004-10-26 07:50:16 PM

On the bright side, he could only do it twice...

grunthos		2004-10-26 07:50:29 PM

dangit DannySpaz and BillaBong, and my slow typing...must be these missing pinkies...

jayblom		2004-10-26 07:50:42 PM

I think it was the same finger.

fiftyfootant		2004-10-26 07:51:59 PM

In other news, Japan's gang wars end as all-powerful 12 fingered gangster wreaks havoc on city.

jayblom		2004-10-26 07:52:03 PM

The same old, rotting, maggotty finger.

Uglysad		2004-10-26 07:52:20 PM

you can only do it twice

untrustworthy		2004-10-26 07:52:20 PM

Father thinks to himself:

"There's something wrong with this, but I just can't put my finger on it."

/Hey, someone had to do it.

anthrbrickinthewall		2004-10-26 07:52:22 PM

Servo
He could send the finger 100 times. No one said it wasn't the same finger.

bridgeboy13		2004-10-26 07:53:19 PM

After the father received a SECOND pinkie, he could have at least heard the guy out.

/C'monnnnn

Driver		2004-10-26 07:54:03 PM

Sound advice: when asking to date a girl, don't give her father the finger.

whovian		2004-10-26 07:56:26 PM

don't they have Hallmark cards in Japan?

TehSmack		2004-10-26 07:57:26 PM

a touching story

heliosc		2004-10-26 07:57:36 PM

Age of consent is 16 for females in Japan. It's 14 for females in Iowa and Missouri.

Culkhambladulahn		2004-10-26 08:00:07 PM

It was cheaper than using a courier...they generally expect a hefty finger tip upon delivery.

Reveilled		2004-10-26 08:00:48 PM

heliosc

Age of consent is 16 for females in Japan. It's 14 for females in Iowa and Missouri.

I wonder if Easyjet fly to Iowa or Missouri...

/Window seat, please.
//...
///No, wait, that didn't come out right!

5000_gallons_of_toothpaste		2004-10-26 08:02:31 PM

I will send it again and again until you accept my request.

Sort of implies that he is resending the same finger over and over.

skeptical_orangutan		2004-10-26 08:02:36 PM

awwwww.....brings a tear to my eye....how sweet.

staplermofo		2004-10-26 08:03:38 PM

man... even the gangsters are polite in japan. "I humbly mutilate myself for your approval, dearest father of my beloved."
to be fair, 15-year-old japanese girls are hot... though they're pretty much done by 17

Jensaarai		2004-10-26 08:04:09 PM

Don't worry... Third time's a charm..

Ahem.

BarkingPumpkin		2004-10-26 08:05:12 PM

Hmm... just a thought... the back of Pokemon boxes would be in Japanese. And so would gang names. This name translates to something like "Yamaguchi Group" if my Japanese is right. Even if it was something very intimidating in Japanese it would still sound like "something from a Pokemon box".

/ not a slam, just thoughts

Kanemano		2004-10-26 08:11:22 PM

Damn age of consent is 12 in Mexico? ewww at least Korea waits until 13.

No_47		2004-10-26 08:11:54 PM

"Japanese gangsters, known as the Yakuza, commonly chop off their little fingers to atone for such defects as betrayal or defeat in turf battles."

(Dr Evil) Riiiiight... (/Dr Evil)

Mikey-San		2004-10-26 08:14:23 PM

Pinky finger?

Jaboobinator		2004-10-26 08:15:36 PM

iwasrobot		2004-10-26 08:16:55 PM

no wonder those mexican 15 yos are so advanced...

clevershark		2004-10-26 08:18:05 PM

That'll convince the father that he's a stable and level-headed guy.

mangetout		2004-10-26 08:18:48 PM

I gave a letter to the postman, he put it in his sack
Bright and early next morning, he brought my letter back

She wrote upon it
"return the finger"...

/got nothing.
