Christmas

Have you ever wondered why at the end of Super Mario Kart some characters always seem to pull off the 'V for Victory' backwards-up-yours two fingered thing? Perhaps, like me you always assumed that it was in fact a reference to 'victory'. Well it's not. There's this asian phenomenon whereby individuals become very, very excited when they are being photographed and in Korea this always seems to manifest itself in the 'V' sign coupled with an especially stupid grin. Anyway, this is not an especially important thing- I just wanted to explain this prior to a few photos i'll be posting up once I tell you what happened when I introduced christmas crackers to Korea.
