Grammar Police!
In my recent trip to China, last October, we encountered many funny people. Even funnier than the people were their signs. The following signs are just the beginning. They ranged from asking us not to carry any explosives, to not engaging in any hubbub. Needless to say, a good chunk of my pictures are dedicated to the grammar, or the lack thereof in the Chinese civilization. If you think these pictures are funny, you should have read the newspapers. HYSTERICAL.

I love reading poorly translated signs - I think it's one of life's simple pleasures. But we have to beware the flip side though that we are probably mis-translating all kinds of stuff ourselves. I read an article about how all kinds of American people were getting a Chinese symbol tattoo that actually translated into something about explosing Diarrhea. Go figure.
