  1. Alexander says:

    I’m on the top…
    I don’t like your nearing :p

  2. MRNot says:

    I will revert to farring, in that case.

  3. Tom Trifik says:

    2nd or 3rd! Wow! I’m better than everyone else, [except Alexander].

  4. The L says:

    Woops, I think I got a little too close.

  5. Tom Trifik says:

    请 = INVITE or PLEASE and 勿 = NOT so 请勿= DO NOT or PLEASE DO NOT
    and
    靠近= NEAR or NEARNESS OR CLOSENESS

    So probably 请勿靠近 = PLEASE DO NOT APPROACH
    or PLEASE DO NOT GET CLOSER

    [or IF the sign is on a Door THEN it could mean: DO NOT CLOSE]

  6. Grimm says:

    Maybe it meant “kneeling”

  7. Archon says:

    I cannot uncover the method for inventing a word joke making from this. I must unknowing select myself for requiring of leaving it unmolested.

    (If there exist opposition so far as my grammar, can translate to make myself pleasured to English.)

  8. Achi says:

    Well that’s a fine now do you do!

  9. Tom Trifik says:

    ok Grrr Power, how about:

    Maybe its a spacing and spelling fail and the Engrish should be “NON EARRING”
    signifying perhaps a “NO EARRING ZONE” ?

  10. Yuri says:

    What about wearing and tearing?

  11. Correctionator says:

    Tom Trifik was almost right. However, it can never mean DO NOT CLOSE on a door. Still only mean DO NOT GET TOO NEAR. Considering the corrugated metal backing on which the sign is mounted, this is probably a construction site and there is falling masonry in the area. Don’t see any engrish here apart from the slightly awkward phrasing (no nearing lol).
