The agency is called Hagemashi Tai (I Want to Cheer You Up) ... sound like "Happiness Consultants" from HBO's Hung? ...
One agency now employs about 30 people of various ages and both sexes across Japan with the skills and personality to temporarily adopt a new identity: as the father of a boy who is in trouble at school, for instance, or the parents of a woman attending a formal match-making party. And there are 10 across the country, the newspaper reports.

Its starting!

>a divorcee whose children were being bullied at school about their absent father.
What the fuck is wrong with you Japan?

Divorce is serious business in other countries
Even if the marriage has failed - both are cheating - and everyone knows - they could still save face

>>4914107
The fact that you don't think divorce is a big deal shows that there is something wrong with us.

>>4914154
I think it's a big deal but I don't think a child should be ostracized just because things didn't work out between their parents.

Like kids in the US don't get bullied for having divorced parents, right?

I'd love to work as one of those, so bad.

But sadly, they'd just see me as a baka-gaijin foreigner.

It just seems so fun, if there's anything I'm good at, it's assuming anothers identity.

pic related, only..not in that sexual way.

It's a shame they would never have something like this n America, due to legal problems and the fact that WE ARR don't ROOK THE SAME.

>>4914195
Well, not in my experience.

>>4914211
I'm sure they could use a foreigner for at least some of their "missions". Give it a shot!

I would love to work as one of these people. I'm sure it pays well, and every once in a while you might actually be able to really help someone, like the guy posing as the kids' uncle to shut up the bullies.

>>4914195
if anything, kids with 2 parents get bullied by the kids with divorced parents

>>4914183
That happens here as well.

I offer loney folks a warm and comfy place for them to stick their dicks in at night. My asshole.

reminds me of that pushing daisies episode with the rent a friend agency.

>>4914274
Asshole-for-hire? Those are pretty common imo.

Isn't this like an escort service?

>>4914274
That is very noble of you, anon. =]

>>4914296
I would just be an asshole for hire in the figurative sense personally.

Need a douche bag to make you look good in front of other people? I'm your man.

This has been around since the 80s, slowpokes.

>>4914344
Not that kind of asshole. This is your actual butthole. And you rent it out to people to stick their dicks in it.
