Was listening to Yo Yo Ma & Bobby McFerrin when Bert Miller wrote:

Enough of that.  I'd like to see more fanfics making jokes with the
Japanese language.

Actually, if you're not that versitile with Japanese, it's a lot harder
than it really is. However, even the basic jokes can be done via
Japanese/English.

For instance, in the Heart/Home series, Lita returns Kasumi's morning
greeting "Ohio go say Mass".

What's really difficult is doing jokes with Japanese vs. a language that
you completely come up with. That's what I'm doing with the Rose-colored
sword series. And let me tell you, that is *not* going to be easy.
