Way better than the fad of throwing jugs of milk in grocery stores.
You’re goddamn right.
I prefer "How do you do, Ken?"-ing and "Sorry you Ken!"-ing...
We had this in the west as well when I was a kid. It was called fus-ro-dahing or something.
We had hadokens before Morrowind, let alone Skyrim, when I was a kid. Street Fighter was pretty popular.
