Note to OL’s: How NOT to aquire Pocky in the workplace

Tuesday 5 May 2009 @ 3:18 pm | By Random J 3 Comments

We all know of those chocolate covered biscuit sticks known as Pocky, right? Well now Glico have saved UK Pocky lovers the hassle of finding Asian supermarkets, Anime conventions and trekking to London’s Chinatown just to buy them. Because they are now available in every supermarket and convenience store under the new name Mikado! I hate the name change, but love the advert that comes with it.

Japanese OL and upskirt photocopying for the win! Aside from making me laugh, it makes me want to go and buy a pack of Mikado. To snack on of course! Not place on high shelves above photocopiers to tempt ladies in the office at work.

This is amusing, since there is an Asian supermarket right across the street from my office. Every other week or so I go pick up some pocky and share with my coworkers =D

[...] TV commercials in the UK pretty much suck. It goes in phases. Sometimes you’ll get lots of cool adverts air at a given time, then you’ll get a load of shit ones. So this definitely stuck out to me and my mates when it aired. It threw me through a loop. Because I never though an advert so Japanesey would air on UK TV. Who knows! It could be a new trend thing. Especially as this comes after the Mikado advert. [...]
