Engrish


So last night I almost had a horrible..horrible car accident. Snow drifting is a frightening thing. I guess it's a little, uneasy reminder how close death always is.



But, to lighten that mood, here are some pictures from one of my favorite websites, Engrish. The website focuses on actual signs and shirts and texts on public objects in Japan where English is widely used since it's considered "cool" there...but just very, very incorrectly - often humorously, as captured here.


oh really? I WANT YOU...to fry chicken in KFC's vats of grease.



(this one is text below a man's doorbell) whoa man, whoa....settle down, no need to get hostile.


"We mean it. No jumping. We can sense it. You don't want it to get to step two..so don't do it."


Kool-aid man?

If you do we'll....not pay for the funeral costs?
























Yeah, this grass is sensitive!



The website itself has hundreds more excellent English skill pictures... so check out the website at http://www.engrish.com !

Glad the accident did not happen. After the shock has calmed it does make us more aware of how vigilent we need to be I think.

We have a daily thing in the newspaper where they often show these funny signs where people have got their English mixed up.
