Beware of the Lawyers
提防律師 is a kind of Chinese joke about lawyers.
The first two characters mean “guard yourself against (an attack)” or “beware.”
The last two characters can be translated as lawyer, attorney, or solicitor.
Separately, those characters mean law/regulation/control and master/expert/teacher. Here, you can see the attorney meaning is pretty clear in the individual characters.
Please note this is Chinese only (it won't make sense in Japanese, and the last two characters are sometimes translated together as “Buddhist Priest” in Japanese).
Iaijutsu
居合術 is the title for Iaijutsu, a combative sword-drawing martial art.
Beware of potential confusion: 居合術 can also be romanized as Battōjutsu; however, Battōjutsu is usually associated with 抜刀術, another blade-wielding martial art.
