LEARN TO SPEAK CHINESE!

Thursday, July-09-09, 15:49

A sign convinces me that I need Chinese language study in order to prevent "misunderstandings".

I just love this sign.  "Tighten your bags in order to prevent misunderstandings."  I think they mean don't steal.  I've come up with some other gentle English phrases and their translations.  Enjoy.

Wear a belt, in order to prevent immodesties.
Translation:  Don't walk around naked.

Pay taxes, in order to prevent confined spaces. 
Translation:  Don't be MC Hammer.



Read the fine print, in order to prevent buyer's remorse. 
Translation:  Check the return policy or you'll be arguing at the GAP like a bitch!

Now, was I talking about mine or yours?
