Ok, so as some of you know, the bootleg dvds in China have "regular" packaging, often just like the real things. I pick up the Spiderman bootleg dvd and here's the English description on the back:
"Even as Scully's genetically altered DNA brings her closer to the brink of death, government agent Michael Kritschgau helps Mulder in the search for a cure, partly to atone for his own involvement with perpetuating the alien hoax. Scully's DNA comes into play once again when she discovers she is the mother of a little girl named Emily, an incident that could only be related to her abduction years earlier. But in the end it is a young boy named Gibson Praise whose body may contain genetic proff of man's relationship to an alien race and who may hold the key to unlocking the mysteries of the Spider-Man."
Then down below where it lists the actors it reads:
PRODUCTON Nicolas Cage David Tom Hanks Silent Witness David Morse pame buscemi VING RHAMES COLM MEANEY MYKEL ...
...and numerould other names that appear to have no connection whatsoever to Spiderman.
Or, better yet, get a life and a sense of humor.
My favorite Chinglish sign was a pretty pink neon sign in a fresh-bread-making store front that read “BAKELY”
I have both, thank you.
A menu I saw here in Beijing recently listed “Puke” as one item you could order. Another offered “hand shreaded ass meat.”
Japanese Sushi restaurant menu item....Giant Crap.
I hope they meant Giant Crab, but I wasn’t taking any chances!
There you go, calling lots of buddies. That’s how girls fight. By the way, what kind of vile stuff did you post that caused it to be deleted by the mods?
Not trollish, but disruptor.
I posted the bare truth about you before you went and hit the abuse button on my posts.
Engrish is a great site—but it’s blocked here in China!
Oh, so they WERE your posts! Believe me dude, I would never hit abuse on your posts. They are priceless!
No, WUAV, seriously, I’m a rock solid conservative who takes a view on China that some around here want to silence.
They were posts by 3 different posters. We all believe that you’re suspect.
Oh, great! You took a vote! How nice and democratic of y'all! You sound like the third assistant creep in a lynch mob. I never touched that button.
A. Engrish can be simply defined as the humorous English mistakes that appear in Japanese advertising and product design.
I thought it was the native language of those who live in the 58th state.
Yeah, Chingrish. Funny stuff.
Gee, did I type that? Oh, right, I did that for the sake of irony. Yeah, that’s it!
