This is something your parents didn't tell you.
Years ago, your Mom and Pop were stationed in Okinawa, hit it off, and painted these Shisa at an workshop. Then came the breakup fight to end all fights. Bags packed, middle fingers flying.
But who gets the Shisa? They fought like rabid hyenas. Mom wanted one, Pop wanted the other. But splitting a guardian pair invites cosmic bad juju, and neither would back down. Exhausted by the logistical deadlock, they stayed together out of pure spite. And boom—you were born.
If they knew they could just buy a new pair at the Oki Social Kadena BX Shop in the Kadena Exchange, you wouldn't exist. History repeats itself, and this ridiculous strategy works every time.
Want your ex back? Invite them to paint Shisa. It might not save your toxic relationship, but at least you get a trophy to prove you’re cultured.
