I bought a tea cup in Kyoto last year that is really neat and has Kanji all over it. I have no idea what it means and to be honest I'm afraid to post it because it might say something stupid and ruin the whole "mystique" of it. lol

Depends on where in Kyoto you bought it. Tourist area or local area?

lol. I purchased a bunch of shirts in Japan that had "half-right" English. They're a blast.
One is a Beach Shirt with a Sun and Waves and says:
"We keep riding the crest of wave even if there is a very painful thing."
One is a very cool (and great feeling) "racer" type shirt with a dragon/cool logos on the back and on the front:
"Two-wheeled motor vehicle powered by an engine."
They're cool looking shirts with a funny saying on it.

I own one that says "Hippopotamus Brother it takes care when playing YEAH THANKS!" and another that says REFLECT BABOON and one for my brother that says "This elephent, do not disturb he is under a meal"
