  your ref wasn't lost on me at least ;) Some trivia: that this was a mistranslation and in the original Japanese, it was "over 8000!"

    It's not a mistranslation. Japanese tend to use "eight" to stand in for "a large number", but "nine" sounds cooler in English.

      Ironically, I've heard one reason the word "fuck" shows up on Japanese products is that the shape of the letters is aesthetically pleasing.
