Little Brother and the Louis Vuitton Crepe · 12 July 05

Rich girls on the main strip in my town got to have the Louis Vitton purse.

To be expected. But it’s not just bling ladies who love LV here in Japan.

Tough guys at my agricultural high school plant rice in green overalls half the day, but they pull their lunch money from huge Vuitton wallets. No lie.

And the dude has a store on the corner of every major mall in the country.

None of which prepared Little Brother and I for what we found on the streets of Hiroshima: The Louis Vuitton Crepe.

The Louis Vuitton Crepe

What?! Man, look at that!

I don’t care who made your wallet, fool! My brother is eating a Louis Vuitton Crepe! You hear me? EATING it.

It posesses both strawberries and bananas.

So you and your Kathy-Lee-Gifford-Collection-lookin’ crepe best get on back to Wal-Mart, son. That’s just not the way we do.

BONUS:
Photographic evidence that classy traditional ladies just can’t resist a man who rocks a designer crepe!

And when we say “can’t resist”, we mean “may nervously agree to a touristy snapshot if asked really nicely”. Yup.

  2. The crepe is not the only thing that’s irresistable in this photo.

  3. Aw, mel made me look silly by doing the funky ^ on top of the ‘e’ like you’re supposed to.

    Little Brother: Watch out! Hot the Ferg just called you irresistable. In a public forum!
