The long awaited answers to what American stereotypes I was portraying in my Halloween Costume!
1. Red, White, & Blue "patriotic" clothing.
2. Blond hair. (although that could just be any foreigner in Japan)
3. McDonald's takeout.
4. Burger King takeout.
5. Gun.
6. Wads of cash. (that I threw around recklessly)
7. Low-cut shirt. (American's are skanky)
8. American flag on my person.
And for extra-credit the awesome joke:
My sash says, "David Bowie is afraid of me." It is a joke because I am an American, and David Bowie is "Afraid of Americans." If you still don't get it, google it and download the song/album.
Those were the things I was going for, but some people thought of some really good ones that I hadn't even considered, such as: "An over weight American that needs suspenders to hold up her pants." "A gung-ho war mongrel with that thumbs-up and fierce face." Good job!
Also, here is a video from my most recent manzai performance (in November). Unfortunately, I don't think this dance is as funny as "Total Eclipse of the Heart" was...I think we set the bar too high the first time cuz it is very difficult thinking of songs that are as awesomely danceable at that one...
Also, while last time my suspenders made my boobs look huge...this time they make my bottom half looks huge...not quite as flattering.
