Since there seems to be a lot of confusion amongst our listeners (and the podcast crew itself!) concerning the difference between the JTR and the JTQ, I’m going to attempt to clarify the situation right now. (I think I’ve tried explaining it on the show once or twice, but there’s always a lot of crosstalk and such, so this should make it easier.)
Both acronyms deal with my picks during our monthly Previews shows. I examine which scantily-clad, busty female statues and figurines are being imported from Japan each month (that’s what our listeners really want, right?). This examination is known as the Japanese Tit Report (JTR). Simple, right?
On the other hand, however, we’ve got the Japanese Tit Quotient (JTQ). This is not the same thing as the JTR! The JTQ is the actual amount of clothing-impaired Japanese statues and figures in the Previews, not my reporting on the subject. For example, if there’s only one or two standout statues one month, then I’m still doing the JTR, but the JTQ is incredibly low. If there’s a lot of them, but I perhaps miss the recording of the Previews episode, then the JTQ is high, but there is no JTR, because I wasn’t there to make the report!
To sum up, the JTQ is a value that fluctuates each month, while the JTR is my actual report on the products within the JTQ.
Any questions?
