Gaijin Taiyaki,

Why did the Taiyaki file a complaint at the Japanese bakery? Because it was tired of people thinking it was actually a fish! So, one day, Taiyaki swims—er, slides—up to the counter and says, "Hey, why does everyone keep trying to dip me in soy sauce?" The cashier, who's a mini Taiyaki, says, "Well, you do look like a fish, but you're really just a cake in disguise!" Just then, a customer walks in and asks, "Do you have any Taiyaki with tuna filling?" The Taiyaki gasps and says, "See? This is exactly what I'm talking about!" The mini Taiyaki chuckles and says, "Don't worry, we'll stick to sweet red bean paste and other imaginative fillings. After all, the only thing fishy here is the idea of you swimming!" And that's how Taiyaki learned that sometimes, being misunderstood is just another way to reel in the curiosity
