Boingboing:

According to WrascalBC’s translation on this Vintage Ads post, the text on this Tokyo subway poster reads, “I look like Santa because you’ve had too much to drink. It’s only October. If you drink, be considerate of the other passengers.”

So now we know what Santa does the rest of the year. He gets fucking slizzard on Tokyo subway stations and pukes all up in his beard. Santa’s a good guy, but I don’t recommended sitting on his lap while he’s blasted. Normally he’s quite under control, but during states of impressive intoxication, he makes the unfortunate mistake of letting his Crotch Candy Cane run amok.

Beware.
