Portable Air Conditioning Spray for Sweaty Businessmen

Picture_2

It gets freaking hot in Tokyo during the summer. But there are no excuses to not wearing a suit to work, and that's why thousands upon thousands of businessmen endure the scorching humid heat in their collared long sleeve shirts, suit pants, suit jacket, you know, the whole outfit. Just thinking about it makes me want to strip.

So now we have this portable air conditioning spray, which uses flammable ethanol and other products that will instantly cool down your clothing to feel like they're minus forty degrees celsius. A wonderful invention indeed! If I had a million dollars I'd donate half of it to purchase these spray cans and have them available for free use at subway stations in NYC and Tokyo. Well, maybe not half. Maybe just a thousand bucks, since they're only $5 each.

Hmm. The average salaryman is, shall we say, not averse to the odd cigarette.
