If you haven't been, it's a good way to waste an hour.

Japanese like the look of English writing but they don't necessarily understand what they're printing sometimes...

A friend of mine about a year ago turned me onto this site. I think it's hilarious. And, it make me wonder if all those Japanese and Chinese writings everyone has now, either for decor or on their "racing" Hondas and Eclipses, are really saying what they mean for them to or not.

Yeah it works the same the other way, too. Asian speakers look what we use of their written language and laugh.

I really like that site. Thanks for reminding me of it; I hadn't looked at it in a while.

Sank you. Highwy enturtaning.

Cool, I completely missed this topic lol but it's freakin' funny...

that site is hillarious, me and some friends were looking at it durring school in our library yesterday and laughing really hard, and then today we went back to the library and the librarian told us we had to set at a computer she could see, so we sat at a desk and didnt get on the computers, I know that story is pointless, but I just thought I would mention it.
