Lost in translation - part 2

You may recall a post from a few months ago poking fun at some of the comical English signs that you see throughout Asia. Well, we've moved on from the days of "crunky nude balls", "graceful sporty times" and "popping showers" in East Asia and today bring you part 2 of funny/odd English signs in Asia, mostly from our time in SE Asia. You can check-out part 1 here.

What a great way to promote a veggie restaurant!











Love me some veggie goose!











My favorites are "yogurt juice", "old coffee" and "body shape coffee".





















Obama's running for office in Thailand? Let's hope those crazy birther people don't get wind of this! (It's actually a local whiskey brand.)











Love this!











The good part of being a foreigner...

















...and the bad.

















For all my start-up/business friends, here's a new way to establish differentiation - just say so.

















S is pronounced SH in Indonesia. (What, did you think we would mature this year?)

















Some more of the same (4th line)...











Harsh.













You can do it!

















And if you smoke them on Shabbat, it's quadruple happiness!

    BTW, your photos are great. Loved seeing all the girls in Asia together.
