As the vast majority of Japanese have decidedly less than bulbous and almost button-like beaks, those of us with more noticeable (although I prefer noble) noses are often treated to comments concerning our sensationally ‘tall’ snouts.
However, while being endlessly entertaining, this fascination with facial features may also stem from envy, as supersizing one’s nose is seemingly sought after in some circles, with this painful looking product supposedly offering the hope of some height.
Along with a somewhat heightened sense of humiliation.

Hmm, and a variety show or two will come up with testimonials by some “high-nosed” serebus, and the next day the store shelf will be cleared of the product across the country….
This reminded me of a scene in Louisa May Alcott’s “Little Women”. It’ll be infinitely cheaper to steal your mother’s clothespin or two, girls.
