Hong Kong Doraemon

So I saw this over at japanprobe and the site admin asked for a translation... so here it is.



... don't shoot the messenger, please. o_o
Apparently these guys are radio DJs or something that decided to try to get famous through doing ridiculous shit like this.

ラジオDJ出身のタレントさんだそうです。少々下ネタあり。もう一度言っておくんだけど俺は和訳しただけだからな？

ハッピー・エープリル・フールズ・デイ

いやー
なんかこう言うをやるのも久しぶりだなー

ではエンジョイ！



Here's a 12.5MB downloadable version too. Sloppily encoded, though.

Translation notes:

General: A "Telephone Club" is a sort of telephone dating network. Guys pay to enter a booth and wait for who want to hook up to call in. Google "Telekura" for more details if you're curious.

00:52: "The! Gyouten News" is a variety TV show that specializes in showing odd and surprising/shocking pieces of news from around the world.

01:36: Okay, I admit, I cheated here. I'm at a total loss as to how to render the line here into English while keeping all the original meaning, so some liberties have been taken here.

02:40: "It's not like their numbers change" - This phrase is rather hard to translate. A phrase that captures the original meaning better might be: "It's not like parts of it get used up", as in the following example:
"Cool, new golf clubs? Hey, lemme try swinging it."
'... What? Hell no, I just bought these.'
"Oh, come on, it's not like parts of it get used up."

03:47: "As a special introductory price for you, it'll come 500,000 yen."
In order to hook people into their product, sales reps often offer potential customers a sampling of their product at a significant "introductory price" discount, but in this case the "introductory price" is even more exorbitantly expensive than the actual one.
