I wonder if All Nippon Airways knows about this? Just imagine what the logo on the tail rudder would look like.

Because nothing is more attractive and chortle inducing to teenage girls than half-metaphors of butt-sex.

It's a good thing civillians can't get onto the tarmac easily. Can you imagine the sort of graffiti that would result from all of this?

Ugh, I have to say that is disgusting. I'm glad they didn't put it on the covers you can see in the stores. I mean, I don't generally support censorship in books, manga, etc., but the acronym is going a little too far in this case.

edit: I can't spell worth jack.

Yup, pretty much. It's especially going too far considering "Airlines" is (EDIT: USUALLY) one word in English, and generally you don't include 2 letters from one word, epecially a shorter word, in an acronym. So they must have intentially wanted this double entendre in the first place making this situation... creepy.

But, well, I don't have to read it, so, whatever.
