    [​IMG] Honestly, this site is freakin' HILARIOUS! www.engrish.com
    I don't wanna spoil it for you, but check out the "recent discoveries," and if you have a somewhat firm grasp on English you'll agree that it's just funny as hell!

    [​IMG] OK Slim-I think that's almost on the level of "all your base". Very funny. I remember reading R. J. Blount Jr.'s auto-biography including some stories about spending time in China, and he went into great detail about the English he would see on t-shirts and so on. Very funny. Kind of amazing really. I like the shirts the best. I dream of being in a thrift store and coming across a "I hate myself and I want to die" t-shirt with a rainbow on it.

    Great site. the funny thing is japan really does have all that sort of manic misspelling. you should hear them speak!
    However when you try and talk japanese to them you get the impression that maybe the joke isn't as one sided as you first thought....

    This site is really funny! I laughed so hard! Some of the pictures reminded me of the "dumbwarnings.com" site. That one is also very hilarious!
