We've all seen them but we just can't help but scratch our heads and laugh every time. Bad translations, misspellings, the works! Share and discuss.

This thread is a pure gold reference for LOLs:

Distractify | 34 Confused Warning Signs That Are Having An Identity Crisis

And this is one of my personal favorites for bad translations:

What a manicure!

I've seen a neighborhood watch sign with a sticker with the Sailor Moon scouts put over the symbol. I want that neighborhood watch!

I've seen another one that was a "No Smoking" sign, and it was drawn on, and the cigarette now looked like a piece of pie, and there were the words "ABSOLUTELY NO PIE."

I've seen a tag for an XL-sized item that said, "Try on a Small. Come on. It'll be funny."

Perfect.

This one tag for an American clothing company that had French translation said, only in the French part (I don't know how old the tag was): "We are sorry our president is an idiot. We did not choose him."

How can you fine a corpse? That's what I want to know.


Wouldn't it be easier to just remove the sign if people are throwing rocks at it? XD

I think the best one was a stop sign had "Don't Stop Believin'!" written on it by some teenager. No one's washed it off or anything. It's pretty hilarious.

I LOVE this! Life should have a lot more random stuff like this, it makes people happy!! It also easily identifies the Butthurt Brigade as they start being all sniffy and going on about stuff being unprofessional etc. So win/win!
