Engrish!

Came across these super-funny signboards on Point of reflection - and then went on to the original site - engrish.
In just over ten minutes on the site, I have come across - Human Woman, Meet products, Breast Room, Today is under construction - thank you for your understanding.
And some lengthy ones that defy understanding.
Such fun. And nice people too, those at the engrish website - The webmaster has taken great pains not to point out the faults of others or have a discriminatory tone - just to have fun with the results. Engrish.com does its best to stay away from any type of “ha ha – these guys are idiots” lines or insinuations. You will also find that the vast majority of the English examples on Engrish.com were produced by companies - not individuals and that most of the Engrish found within the site is not an attempt to communicate, but are examples of English being used as a design element.
The last time I had so much pointless fun on the internet (excluding those hours and hours I spend on facebook five days a week, taking self-discovery quizzes and writing on people’s walls, i.e.) was when I first discovered google translator - and wrote the highly insightful make with others…
Madhu has done a good job..
Congrats on the site..
