Speak Engrish please…

My dear cousin was lamenting about college life in her blog the other day. College life sucks it seems. My advice to her, wait till she starts working.

Anyway, because she’s a banana (a term used for chinese who don’t speak much chinese, and I can call her that cause I’m one too.), her classmates, who are predominantly chinese speaking, like to make fun of her.

What I believe is that, one should be able to speak English decently. Any other language, is optional. Why? Because we live in a world where English has become a common language. Wherever you go, there is bound to be English translation in every billboards, roadsigns and what not. That kind of tells you that English is useful wherever you are. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying that one should have a Phd in the language. Just a decent command of it will do.

Here are some pictures that shows the horror of not knowing English well enough.

Suicide made easy but with a price.

Arr… I’m lost for words…

I guess it’s not as simple as putting it in your mouth and chew.

Yeah, my friend suck too…

I think new friends are in order.

I think it means no washing was ever done here and you are to leave after ‘Pissing‘ or ‘shitting‘.

It’s an art to be able to fall carefully into a river. You need talents.

You’ll have to shoot me to make me eat those dumplings. Or you can threaten me with the “Acid food“.

There are plenty more from where that come from. But you get the idea. Whoever their teachers translators are, they need to be shot.
