Bad Priest

I was on vacation around the Hida Takayama area, and saw (or should I say, “caught”) this priest in a ramen shop.

It’s odd, because if you look carefully at the beer-like liquid in his glass, and the giant bottle labeled “Asahi” in front of him… He seems to be… Well… Having a beer. Extra attentive readers will also notice that he is simultaneously enjoying a smoke as well.

And this was before noon!

Did I mention he was having an entire bottle of beer to himself?

Priests aren’t supposed to drink. Or smoke. Right? Am I wrong?

Where’s the wabi-sabi?!?

Not in there I suspect…
