"What I Found In My Email" Mondays. Vol.2 - Issue 24

For those of you just joining the fun, for a while now I have been doing this series of posts on Monday's. Mainly because I am usually buried on Monday's and secondly I am lazy and they are quick to put up. The rule is that I look in my inbox for something special or funny and put it up.

I do have to confess, this email was sent to me a couple of Mondays ago but it was so good that I decided to save it for today.

Because the Olympics were in China this year, they have gone to great lengths to accommodate all the English speaking tourists.

Don't touch yourself
What exactly do you want me to do?

What the heck are we eating?
See I told you!

Do I really want some of this coffee?
What every you do, don't order the Chocolate Star Latte.

Not sure I want to shop there.
They have the record on security cameras and mirrors.

I knew vegetables felt pain. So much for PETA.
I was told that being a vegetarian was better. Darn you PETA.

Is someone robbing something?
A very hip robber?

Whatever you do, you can NOT die here.
I'm sorry sir, you are going to have to die somewhere else.

So that's where the Ho's have to go in?
Ahhhh, so that's where they go in.

WOW, bottled water - in a can
Wow! Bottle water - Now in a can.

You might want to wash your hands after this
Uhhh, OK. I feel like I need to wash my hands now.

You gotta love the differences between English and Chinese. As you can see from the tags on the pictures, these images come from engrish.com. There are many more pictures where these came from.

Welcome to the week!

I think the term is lost in translation.

@ Josh - Yep that pretty much sums it up.
