Sometimes I wonder what is appropriate?

Am I a prude or perhaps a little too conservative? But when I was walking though one of the back streets in Harajuku along Omotesando, I came across this window with children's and toddler's t-shirts. On first inspection they seemed attractive featuring bright colors, interesting graphics and good design. However, I am not sure if it is appropriate to have a hemp or cannabis leaf on a children's shirt.

Star Wars Souvenirs at the TMGB

I had a want around Tokyo several weeks ago on a US holiday.  My friend and I visited several camera shops in the Shinjuku and while we were there decided to head to the top of the second tallest building in Tokyo, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building.

The souvenir shop at the top of the TMGB had some cool Star Wars t-shirts.  Too bad they were horribly overpriced at ¥2,700.  Ack!  It's not nice to gouge geeks.  Even if a giant Darth Vader is strutting with his AT-AT around the Tokyo Tower.
