I’m guessing most on this site will not get it (the meaning of poon that is; won’t guess who gets anything else.) There is a dorm at MIT named Tang Hall and most of the residents, being MIT students, don’t get that slang meaning either. (It’s a co-ed dorm, by the way.)
Shame on Engrish site for projecting unattainable body image messages to ladeez – mine has never shot out rays of pretty colours like that. (Admittedly, nobody’s ever thrown a bowling ball at mine either; there are limits to what I’m prepared to do to attain unattainable idealised perfect body image…)
Looks to me like an artist’s conception of the old Rolling Stones tune, “She Comes in Colors.” (Of course, I don’t recall any mention of the bowling ball, but I suppose that’s just artistic license.)
Not as bad as the next one up, which has lots of unfortunate onomoto-PEA-a! If I’m going to be in Dreadful Pun Hell, I might as well try to make Devil-In-Chief!!!
YEAH! Probably the same toy I found this in… it was like a 10-in-1 game with about a million plastic pieces. The toy lasted all of 15 minuets with my kid… but the Poon will live on…
That’s what I thought of when I saw it! But sadly, there is no spoon…. and the cake is a lie, anyway. :: insert sound of crushed spoon-and-cake related hopes and dreams ::
Sometimes I hate english for having dirty meanings to innocent words. What about the cute kids who’ll want this toy and yell at the top of their voice in the store “MAAAMAAAA I WANT THE POOOON!!”
Jeeeez
Shucks…um…zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Of course, it could be the phonetic spelling for the sound that is made from getting a strike. Maybe a translation from Katakana (if it’s Japanese).
Still entertaining though
Didn’t get it…
you could try buying her flowers, and if that don’t work you can pay for it as a last resort
Rebuttle WIN!
and you never will
and he is also giving a shocker it seems

Er……yes. You know how to Google, don’t you? Poon (and just about any other strange term) is in Wikipedia too.
My friend’s wife’s name is Poon (Thai) and I’d never heard of this word in any other context before now.
*chuckle*
yes. my skills with the google is great. bow before me.
Ah! You have multicoloured belt in Google?
it could also be pawn, which pronounces as pown, or poon. she must be good at halo.
I want one to hang on my fridge.
For a poon that wide, you might need a bigger fridge!
XD
subliminal messaging win.
or maybe it’s more direct, i can’t really decide which
i like though.

*sob* I’ve never had multiple wavelengths. I feel so inadequate…
ROFL! “She Comes in Colors.” You broke my imagination! I’l be enjoying that image for a long time!
But I’m betting your imagination will not be down long!
This reminds me of the 40 Year Old Virgin bar scene.
Epic!
I like a guy who can avoid gutter balls.
Guy comes home, crashes his car into the side of the garage. His wife says to neighbor lady “Now I know why they call cars phallic symbols.”
You will now be returned to your regularly scheduled Engrish program…
Sounds like he may be right up your alley!
My word, I hope he asked nicely first.
SPOON!
there is none
I’m thinking PWN here…
I love that stuff
My 3 year old says “Poon” instead of spoon. She asks for poon every day.
lets give her some poon then!
Mai Husband asks for poon just about every day, too – it’s funny how much he has in common with a three-year-old.
Annoying husband ref win!
POOOOOON! Steeeerike.
A most unfortunate choice of onomatopoeia.
Not as bad as the next one up, which has lots of unfortunate onomoto-PEA-a! If I’m going to be in Dreadful Pun Hell, I might as well try to make Devil-In-Chief!!!
hey wheres the tail on that bowler? :0
and is it supposed to be Jar Jar Binks?
lol i had a toy with this in it
YEAH! Probably the same toy I found this in… it was like a 10-in-1 game with about a million plastic pieces. The toy lasted all of 15 minuets with my kid… but the Poon will live on…
You have a kid who does the Minuet? What talent! And can dance through 15 of them? What endurance! You should post a video on You-tube!
Dang… spelling fail.
Don’t worry. We love spelling fails here, especially if it fuels our amusement, even if only for a minuet.
BTW – Homestarrunner win!
COPIER!!! *burninates*
I’d pay more than a nickel to watch…….

SPOOOOOON!!! Tick reference FTW!

I’m not a fan of est, but I do love one of Werner Erhard’s sayings: A dirty mind is a joy forever…
Kids! Gotta love ‘em! Oh, but not THAT way!
Yes, I love children. Boiled or fried for preference.
You eat them with a poon, I suppose.
I use chopsticks, but then there’s all that fallout…
there is no poon
There is no poon in Mudville,
Mighty Casey has struck out.

Dev: +1 internets

“PON” : japanese sound effect for a loud and sound, comparable to “BANG” in our sound effects (lol).
