Truth in Advertising

“Let’s try homeparty fashionbly and have a joyful chat with nice fellow.
Daiso straws will produce you young party happily and exceedingly.”

The above appears on the lovely package of flexible drinking straws my brother Santa put in my Christmas stocking.

I hope it’s all true, especially the exceedingly part.

And if that amuses you the way it amuses me, then you will like this place.

    I don’t know what that is, but I’m sure it’s not just ngrish. Maybe Italianish, with some engrish, and French, I think.

    Happy New Year, Jen! I hope you have a nice weekend, with lots of fun, and thanks for visiting my blog!

    Engrish is GREAT! If you like that site, then check out http://hanzismatter.blogspot.com. It’s a site dedicated to the horrible Hanzi and Kanji characters that westerners get tattooed on their bodies. Always good for a laugh.

    The best piece of Engrish I own is a box of candy from China. “Producted from finely grained wood and like pulp. Hongxia! Producted was to the best of your friends!”
