Of course, it could be the name for the next scandal in Major League Baseball, if the team from Boston were to engage in indecent exposure en masse. Oh, sorry, I forgot. There’d be nothing to show!
That wasn’t really my implication, as I was more in a down-on-the-schoolyard mode. In fact shrinkage of the male genitalia can be a side effect of steroid abuse. But that wouldn’t affect the Red Sox anyway!
I’ve got a friend or two who like the Red Sox, and they were very pleasant and agreeable after the ’04 season. I like the Sox, and I like the Yankees, but neither one fanatically. Lean toward the Mariners, actually, and now wanna see if the Cubs can finally do it. But baseball really isn’t one of my favorite things (cue Julie Andrews…)
And yes, Manny went to the Dodgers. Last season I think. So he can now play when he feels like it in LA instead of Boston. Except for now: the estrogen mess found in his system got him a 55 game suspension.
Tell me about it. This is why Manny Rodriquez got caught with female hormones in his system. Even though this but didn’t occur until he was a Dodger, his shrinkage most likely started with the Sox.
Actually, in point of fact I don’t hate the Red Sox. I don’t consider them important enough to bother hating. I hate them when they play the Yankees, but that’s because I temporarily hate ANYONE who is playing the Yankees. But there are Yankee haters everywhere, simply because the Yankees have a record of excellence that no one else in baseball can touch. It’s like how the USA is hated so much around the world, because we happen to be the only superpower at the moment. It’s hard to find someone who hates Liechtenstein! But the rabid Red Sox fans are among the most vocal Yankee haters (jealousy does underly much hatred), and I will defend my Yankees.
Rabid is about the only thing you can call the comments from the other day from our dear dear friend P. Either that, or tertiary syphilis. I considered making rational yet humorous arguments in the midst of that fray, but felt perhaps I should because, since there was a lot of lunging and snapping, I might get bit.
Things like- “if you want to determine who “America’s Team” is in a particular sport, just look at merchandise sales”, which would’ve undermined that particular argument. Then the comment about the best sports “area” of all time. Huh? Countering with something like, “I think New England, if you put them up against other regions, might not come out well as far as a decade wide championship run in multiple sports. The South (I ain’t really blowing any particular biased horn here, just ‘facts is facts’), if you look at it, contains a high percentage of dominant college programs… Duke and UNC cover quite a few college basketball championships, and in college football, ya got, lessee, Miami, Florida State, Florida, UGa, Alabama, Arkansas, University of Texas, etc. and so on.” Usually, though, one thinks of sports towns, and in that case L.A. or Chicago might be up there past Boston, not to mention say the 70′s in Pittsburgh with the Steelers and Pirates and Penguins, or, ahem, New York, especially early 20th century when you had the Yankees, Giants, and Brooklyn Dodgers in MLB and none of those were slouches, plus the Gi’nts in football since the ’20′s, the Knickerbockers, the Islanders, the Rangers- if you just play simple arithmetical odds, considering the number of teams, Brother POTO might be off just a touch.
I figured at the time I’d stay out of it, and still will at least until he sees this and then I’ll be in for it. Fanaticism is as fanaticism does, and I’m too low key about this mess to get too wound up about it. I’ve been described as being so low key in general that if I were any more low key, I’d be off the left end of the piano keyboard.
and BTW, REAL Yankee Haters aren’t that way because of the Yankees’ record, they are because of the intensity of ALL Sox v. Yankees games. As far as raw talent goes, I have to admit that we are the 2 best teams in the AL East (tho Tampa’s getting good FAST) The fact is, we’ve been rivals since before we were born, and it’s too much fun. I wouldn’t give you up as rivals for anything (tho I may accept Tampa as a 2nd rival, you may want to also.)
If ANYONE abuses steroids its the Yankees, and it hasn’t improved ANYTHING besides their paychecks. The Sox are more MAN than ANY of you Yankee bastards. Look how prissy Demon became after he turned Judas. Not to mention the Sox are more CLEAN than you could EVERY be (manny WHO?). A-Rod sucks, Jeeter swallows. Damon throws like a girl. These are some of the most COMMON Yankee-relates phrases out there. Nothing could be more demasculating.
That, my dear dragonrady, was precisely my point. I doubt anyone on this site has strong feelings about Liechtenstein, but most people probably have strong feelings, one way or the other or, most likely, both, towards the USA. So, too, with my beloved Yankees.
How about, “all things that are funny, with a particular interest in those that result from translation errors,” dot com? If it’s funny, then why complain? My hat is off to the person who runs this site, since she brings me LOLZ every day of the week. No one else does that. There are many comic strips I find funny, but all of them miss from time to time. Here, not a day goes by without at least one LOL, and many days I get ROTFLMFAO!!! So complain, I won’t!!!!
I could never get anyone to specify whether females were being ordered to get hands off one that presumably was their own, or whether they were presumed to have their hands on someone else’s. No mean feat, since there were not mixed lines Back Then.
This T shirt was on a shop mannequin in Singapore in April this year. It may or may not be “Engrish” in its strictest sense. English is one of Singapore’s official languages, but so are Tamil and Malay, and not all of the people speak English- the lady who worked in the shop I found this is in didn’t- therefore, it may or may not have been intentional. I just don’t know. However, it was very very funny, and we just wanted to share it with all of you lovely people. It seems a fair few of you agree for it to make it onto the home page.
I didn’t think it fitted on fail blog, and certainly not on the cheezburger or hotdog pages.
I didn’t buy it, althoug I wish I had, it certainly would’ve raised a few eyebrows on the swanky pants Eastern Orient Express journey we went on from Singapore up to Bangkok!
Of course, it could be the name for the next scandal in Major League Baseball, if the team from Boston were to engage in indecent exposure en masse. Oh, sorry, I forgot. There’d be nothing to show!
I don’t follow baseball, but do I sense a suggestion of steroid abuse?
That wasn’t really my implication, as I was more in a down-on-the-schoolyard mode. In fact shrinkage of the male genitalia can be a side effect of steroid abuse. But that wouldn’t affect the Red Sox anyway!
Hey, Jennifer, wherever you are! Get the popcorn and a couple of comfy chairs! We’re getting ready to have a RUMBLE!!!!
I guess I’m “Red Sox” by marriage…but truthfully could care less about any baseball team.
Though it was kind of ‘touching’ back in ’04 when the Red Sox won, and the rabid fans put Red Sox pennants on their loved one’s graves.
Haven’t followed the Red Sox / Yankees since moving across the country…didn’t realize Manny had left the Red Sox until reading this Engrish

Ironically, too, Joe Torre is now his coach.
You can’t like both. Why don;t you just stay out of it and stick to being a Mariners or Cubs fan. I’d be cool with that.
Tell me about it. This is why Manny Rodriquez got caught with female hormones in his system. Even though this but didn’t occur until he was a Dodger, his shrinkage most likely started with the Sox.
He probably started popping estrogen when he was with the Sox so he’d fit in!
Manny who?

“shouldn’t” there in the first paragraph, otherwise it don’t make too much sense.
I support 2 teams. The Red Sox, and whoever kicks the Yankees’ ass.

Speaking of which, I’m surprised that I haven’t told a Yankees joke yet.

I will never wear that shirt!
I have no feelings one way or the other about Lichtenstein.
That, my dear dragonrady, was precisely my point. I doubt anyone on this site has strong feelings about Liechtenstein, but most people probably have strong feelings, one way or the other or, most likely, both, towards the USA. So, too, with my beloved Yankees.
I do it with my Sox on.
Ooh, you read the title as well …
But didn’t read it very well. Chilli pepperes??
i know someone who would watch THAT
…can’t they put ACTUAL ENGRISH here?

Australian soldiers too. Even the female ones.
I had only heard the wake-up call as “Wakey wakey, hands off snakey”, but your comment raises a few questions about female Aussie soldiers…….
I could never get anyone to specify whether females were being ordered to get hands off one that presumably was their own, or whether they were presumed to have their hands on someone else’s. No mean feat, since there were not mixed lines Back Then.
There must be lots of snakes Down Under!
At least there are clear instructions as to where one should be wearing one’s sock.
From “Puppetry of the Penis” to “Hosiery of the Penis”
How the heck did you manage to read that second line? Even zoomed in, it’s not clear on my screen! You must have this shirt.
It’s just a matter of reading between the lines.
I’m not so sure about some of the purists. They always sound like they’re about to have a stroke if they think something is “not Engrish.”
This T shirt was on a shop mannequin in Singapore in April this year. It may or may not be “Engrish” in its strictest sense.

What is written under Ladies and Gentlemen on the shirt?
Maybe a shirt for someone whose husband rolls his eyes and says “Yeah, my wife wears the socks in our household”.
If it’s the one starring my ex, you may want to change the channel.
