Ok, friend of mine wants to know what this bag says, apparently someone told them it said "[something]-vagina," and they'd like a second opinion.
Hey Bryn Mawr-tyrs, I know some of you speak/read some japanese, or know people who do, and the owner(s) have reason to believe the script is japanese.
(I sure can't tell the difference. heh.)
Little help?

it sez...

last part is which way
vagina is manko
:O
i can't figure out the first part
it doesn't make that much sense

<Xero> it's not vagina
<zwik> i didn't think it was
<Xero> last part is which way
<Xero> vagina is manko
<Xero> :O
<Xero> i can't figure out the first part
<Xero> it doesn't make that much sense
<el|taimingu> is it (something) de?
<el|taimingu> at least
<Xero> it's
<Xero> bun de do chi
<el|taimingu> gah
<CowMix> its like bun de? do! chi
<Soniti> hm?
<CowMix> isnit it
<Xero> time? which way!
<el|taimingu> damn them for putting bun in kanji.
<Xero> i dunno
<Xero> it doesn't make sense
<el|taimingu> and isn't the last figure a shi ?
<Xero> no
<el|taimingu> or a tsu
<Xero> it's chi with little tsu
<Xero> there's no characters after little tsu so
<Xero> you have to use it as
<el|taimingu> so... bun de? do! chi (little) tsu
<Xero> a sharp "chi"
<Xero> cut it short
<Xero> D:
<el|taimingu> ah
<CowMix> prob was made in tiwan
<Xero> yeah lol
<CowMix> so they messed it up
<CowMix> :P

<zwik> heh
<zwik> thanks

the mini tsu would make it a longer sound like, chii. :-/ If it didn't then the chi would be short.

I'm thinking it says, where? what? which way?
or maybe where? OHHH!! this way?

I also think it might say, where (where is everyone) and hello?
