So hang on, is this article basing the the popularity of ahiru-guchi on the popularity of Donald Duck (A CARTOON) and Pringles (A POTATOCHIP/INANIMATE OBJECT)?

Woman: What do you think about my picture, honey?
Man: I think you look really cute. Just like a potato chip.
Woman: Why thank you!
Man: You're welcome, my little Pringle.

And silly me thought it was a desperate attempt to look cute/sexy that made most look worse than better. No, it was a REVOLUTION!
