Here's an interesting story. Several weeks ago, I imported several brand new and sealed Japanese Junior Idol DVDs from eBay (pic related, was one of them).

In case you didn't know, Junior Idols are basically just models, except under the age of 18. And no, there are no nudity whatsoever in these DVDs, the most that'll happen is just swimsuits, which is what you would usually see on a typical day on the beach. Still, that hasn't stopped certain countries from trying to ban it. And Saaya Irie is the most famous one internationally (google her and be surprised).

Okay, so I imported several of these brand new and sealed Junior Idol DVDs from Japan to Australia which I received last week.

I look at the package and I see the words "OPENED FOR INSPECTION BY CUSTOMS". That's not good, I thought to myself. I opened the package and the DVDs were there. But I was expecting them to be brand new and sealed. They were no longer sealed, and they had fingerprints on them. They obviously opened them up and watched it.

Moral of the story? Japanese Junior Idol DVDs are legal but will still raise suspicions.

Proof of legality of Junior Idol DVDs? 3 arguments to support that:

1) I haven't been arrested yet
2) I RECEIVED the DVDs I bought
3) Customs are opening up our Junior Idols DVD and masturbating to it (hypocrites).

This is Australia though. We're not quite as backward as America yet and if I was American and bought these DVDs... who knows.

The thing that sucks though is that my name is probably now on "the list".

Discuss.
