Bacon!

I was doing a poll, elsesite (on whether to do my wanikani subscription as monthly or yearly; the yearly price saves two months, but I feel weird dumping almost $100 in one lump, and monthly is less commitment st a time; I worry that I'll pay for a year and then lose interest; if I end up marrying a Japanese bazzilionaire I can give wk the $309 lifetime thing, but that's not likely), and there is a tradition in that group of always including bacon. (Kind of like how LiveJournal polls "had to" have a tickybox options.

I said that I didn't know the Japanese for bacon, but then smartassedly said it was probably ベコン (bekon in katakana).

Then I looked it up on google translate ... which said it's べーコン (bēkon).

I am way too amused by this.
