    Isn’t this one really old?

  2. brandon says:

    I absolutely *hate* it when suddenness happens.

  3. Liri says:

    They used “lest” correctly though, how many native english speakers can claim the same?

  4. steph says:

    yeah it’s old. i posted this picture on here a couple months ago

  5. Ras_Putin says:

    The railing exists
    to help prevent suddenness
    to those that walk here

  6. Jenni says:

    XD i find it amusing

    • Sterno says:

      Have we seen it before? – Yes.
      Is it funny? – Yes.
      Did Angela Necro an old image? – No.

      Looks like the same Park/Zoo sign but in different locations. Backgrounds don’t match at all.

  7. sarbez says:

    well it’s nice to see it again…
    who doesn’t need to be reminded to avoid suddenness?

  8. nate says:

    obviously photoshopped….

  9. Dirpson says:

    if you look closely at those 2 pictures you will see that it actually is the same location the photo is just taken from a different angle in a different season

    • MetaGaijin says:

      I’m gonna have to swing with the “no” team here. The old photo has a wall in the background on the right with foliage behind it. The new picture has a building there. The old picture has large rocks on the ground. The new picture has none. The old picture has more railings and people walking on the left. The new picture has a panda climbing frame there.

  12. LuLu says:

    OMG I accidentally the railing – what should I do?

  13. Angela says:

    Hi, I submitted the picture – I didn’t see it posted, so it was a fail on my part. Sorry Steph. This is actually a real picture from the Beijing Zoo Panda Exhibit, taken by me on a trip in September, 2007. I submitted about a dozen Engrish pictures taken in Beijing, Guilin, Xi’an and Shanghai, but this is the one the site posted.

  14. Nelson says:

    If suddenness happens, and nobody is there to hear it, does it make a sound?

  15. Myun says:

    Suddenness is the suddenity of the suddenocity of the sudd.
    Or the suddenocity of the sudden occurence.
    Or the suddenness of the sudden that made it so suddeny.
    Suddenness of the suddenity of the sudd devried from the sudden.

  16. John Steves says:

    As far as I’m aware this is at Beijing Zoo, I saw the same sign on my visit this June.

  17. what a funny little sign.
