Swine: Another name for the N1H1 influenza virus. I've heard quite a few people call it this.

Creeper: One who gives off the vibe of a pedophile.

Nothing otaku about that! If I were that bitch, I'd dumb the screaming babe right there.
I hate drama with a passion. :(

pocky seems indeed to be also a kind of chocolate-covered stick snacks. anyone get the 'mikado' reference?
note the commercial is talking aboot pokkie, I translated pocky for english readers... was that wrong?  ???
