THAT’S one way to do it.
If you’ve been thinking about
how best to advertise your
pharmacy or services (aside,
obviously, from in Pharmacy
Daily), you could take this
Japanese bar’s idea as inspiration
- to tackle the problems of
excessive drinking, the Yaocho Bar
Group has started using sleeping,
drunk people around Tokyo as
human billboards warning about
excessive alcohol intake, the
Telegraph reported.
A video of the action says low
alcohol tolerance and a need to
let their hair down after a week
of hard work means Japan sees
“thousands of people drinking
until they drop”; where drop
means falling asleep.
The Group uses duct tape and
portable headlines to make
human posters - CLICK HERE to

I WANT to be special - d’oh!
If a heavily tattooed man walks
into your dispensary and asks
for his ‘d’oh-se’, you may be
speaking with Lee Weir, a New
Zealand man whose dedication
to Homer Simpson was proven by
his determination to give up beer
for a year to pay for the largest
collection of Homer tattoos ever
etched onto the skin of a human
- and yes, he made it into the
Guinness World Records.
According to stuff.co.nz, Weir,
27, had to show a dermatologist
his inked epidermis, who verified
the ‘achievement’.
