Get the Oriental Nonsense mug.That one rhythm in a lot of media or video games that plays when there is some relation to someone or something that is either japanese or chinese. It will usually play when you are in a video game level where you are fighting an asian character, or it will play when cartoon characters are visiting China. Also, it was used in the song ''Kung Fu Fighting''. And I finally found it after 7 years. It's usually like: ''dun dun dun dun dun dun dun doo''
