ROFL I love this kind of stuff. I'll have to find it tomorrow, but I recently placed an order for an MP3 player from China and the engrish is great.. spelling is horrible, grammar is worse! I laughed the whole time I was trying to figure the thing out.

This is one of the more humorous sides of Japanese culture!

They know some english that is used there turns out to be very funny to native English speakers!

When I was working there, riding along to work sometimes, I would crack up reading a billboard or what not and the
Japanese people I rode with would always what to know what I found humorous!!!
Gave them an inside track on the rest of the Japanese ;)

One that always amused me was the container of powered cream for coffee at work.

The brand name was Creap

I would go around and ask the men if they wanted a little Creap in their coffee! :rofl and we would all laugh.

Another humorous story while you have me thinking about such things...

Did a project in a foreign country last year with a male colleague from my office.

We were shopping together at a local supermarket and came upon a young woman who was a representitave for a product doing on-site promotion.

She spoke english well enough and immedately approached me to promote her product with a big smile!

The poor guy I was with turned ten shades of red! :rofl

She wanted me to buy FDS and went into great detail about the attributes of her wonderful product and why I should start using it.

I laughed so hard at the look on his face I had tears rolling down my cheeks!

I reached into my purse and extracted a small spray can of FDS to show her I was an educated consumer!

Luck had nothing to do with it. Neither did skill. I really have no idea what did have to do with it. What was the question again?

whenever we made a port visits to Japan we all went out and bought engrish t-shirts.  Kinda our tradition.

And no you can't ask me what it is... trust me on this.

Can you just imagine the look on my work colleague's face?
I laughed so much looking at him I couldn't breathe!
I thought Roger was going to die from terminal embarrassment.

I think it safe to assume you are not married.

I would not recommend it as a gift on the first date even though it comes in White Blossom fragrance. ;)

However, spring flowers... real ones... are very sweet and make an excellent gift on a first date!
