Engrish isn’t necessarily a failed translation. In this case, as in many others, it’s simply a hilariously unexpected and inappropriate application. The essence of Engrish isn’t so much what was done but the fact that the level of English competency where it’s found is so low that they can get away with it.
I remember reading on another caption about weird things written on shirts that other countries just put random sayings in another language. Someone commented on that one saying she had a shirt with chinese or japanese lettering and an asian woman was laughing at her, when she asked why the lady told her that her shirt said “Property of Brothel House No. 5″ or something along those lines.
So basically it was meant to mean just exactly what it says, lol.
But what if it (the shirt up there) actually means what it’s saying? Could it possibly be an English shirt that’s in an adult store? I want to know what country the shirt’s from before I laugh at it.
From what I hear, heavily white-rice consuming cultures often have widespread problems with constipation… so this logo might be a way to express fellow-feeling with the masses. People read it and go “Yeah… yeah! I hear you!”
Hey everyone… I general told others in the sister sites but I forgot to tell everyone here. I was able to make a vista sidebar gadget. Its not without its small bugs, but its nice to have it auto-load when you start up the computer. Here’s the link:
If it’s a “truth,” then is it not also shirt-worthy? Mass-produce them things, my friends! And… as a thinly veiled front, Beethoven was not a god. He also had indigestion, numerous times.
This next shirt comes from the Spring line of the Obvious Collection. We expect it to be as popular as last Summer’s ‘IF I KEEP BREATHING, I DON’T PASS OUT!’
Finally there’s an adidas (All Day I Dream About Sh..ing?) product I would buy again since I had thrown my Franz Beckenbauer training shoes into the waste 25 years ago.
I think the people who make this stuff for non-engrish speakers make it say weird stuff on purpose, for their own entertainment.
Because people will buy that shirt and not know what it means.
FIRST!
Actually, being #2 would be more fitting here.
damn right…^^
especially relieving with a bad hangover
me to
Engrish or good taste fail?
Hilarious anyway but still…
There is no one in the world who doesn’t agree with this shirt. Engrish actually pulled off a shirt that anyone could wear.
Just don’t wear that around someone with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, or they are likely to bite your head off.
that could get bad…:D
but honestly…who WOULDNT wear that awesome shirt?:D
Well, at least it will give them hell coming out.
Not necessarily. My brother has IBS, and he very much enjoys pooping.
me too!
who doesn’t??!?!!?
Some one with hemorids. Bonus points if it’s a new mom with constapation and stiches.
yep, definitely. After i had my baby i waited 8 days to poop! Pooping was pretty much the scariest thing i could imagine at that point!
Sentences like this could lead the humane race to extintion…
Luckily the sadistic ones would be able to carry on.
best way to start a day.
LOL
wondering what this was supposed to mean in the first place…

THANK YOU! I’m tired of being the only one to explain this.

Oh man, I am so glad I am not the only one that feels this way.
In fact, I need to poop right now…

Have fun
If it’s a “truth,” then is it not also shirt-worthy? Mass-produce them things, my friends! And… as a thinly veiled front, Beethoven was not a god. He also had indigestion, numerous times.
Okay, so where do I buy this shirt? I would wear it.
relevance?
So true! As I’ve heard it said before, there’s nothing more overrated than bad sex, and more underrated than a good dump.
This next shirt comes from the Spring line of the Obvious Collection. We expect it to be as popular as last Summer’s ‘IF I KEEP BREATHING, I DON’T PASS OUT!’
Don’t we all?
