On one side it has the sentiment, “Welcome to Chinese Restaurant. Please try your Nice Chinese Food With Chopsticks the traditional and typical of Chinese glonous history and cultual.”
On the other side are pictorial instructions with these legends:
“Tuk under thurnb and hcld firmly”
“Add second chcostick hold it as you hold a pencil”
“Hold tirst chopstick in originai position move the second one up and down Now you can pick up anything:”
I was tempted to test the claim in this last statement by trying to pick up the cute waitress, but I foresaw a language problem getting in the way.
On a box lid from a box of ramen noodles a former roommate had:
I’ve had this thing for 6+ years and it still cracks me up! What the hell can cereals or dried fishies do to ramen noodles?
And because it’s related to safety: Former job, a bunch of desks in the lab placed near an emergency exit door which led to a staircase and outside. Said door had a bit of a cold draft, which was annoying to the people working at the desks. Remember: EMERGENCY EXIT DOOR.
My favorite instructions were from the “Monty Python’s Complete Waste of Time” computer game. The first sentence was (something like) “Please be sure to read the instructions carefully. This game will not truly be a complete waste of time until you have read the instruction manual.”
Again sighting goodness look-stick is. Behold Engrish.com many funning happy happy papers and garment, protections having romantic character of intelesting configuration.
