Most filters can’t do OCR on a photo image, they only read the text. This is often used to get offensive materials past mail filters and block bots from pages.
It wouldn’t surprise me, but it looks like this one has x & y axis controls! Since I tend to collect weird products that make very little sense, I just might buy one of these, to go with my solar powered keyring light and the iPod remote control. (OK, I know where you might use the Ipod thing. It just tickles my sense of weirdness that something designed as a portable music unit now has all the add-ons to make it a fixed system!)
I just unplug the UPS. The small one will produce 150 w. The big one will produce 1000 w. The gasoline generator will do 3kw. The last set of high temperatures and storms knocked my brother’s power out for 3 days
I cribbed mine from comedian Steven Wright, who is a wonderful source of brilliant oxymorons. He once put a humidifier and a dehumidifier in the same room and let them fight it out.
Actuallu the word ‘plumber’ comes from the latin ‘plumbum’ meaning lead (notice its periodic symbol, Pb), as plumbers jobs originally consisted of pounding lead pipes into shape to fix them. Lead pipes. Wouldn’t you just LOVE drinking water that went through those?
Water with a high calcium content doesn’t attack lead piping. Sour or bitter wine was boiled it in a lead pot in Roman times. The acids and alcohol attacked the lead and and sweetened the wine with lead salts and tetra ethyl lead. Western civilization was saved when they found poor wine made good Asti Spumante and Champagne.
that’s prolly cos the other side cannot decide which Asian language to translate to (since there are so many) and thus not bother, resulting in sanely low amounts of translational errors.
And what a beautifully clean rooster you’ll have after using this!
I don’t think I’ve ever heard the adjective “charming” in reference to one before.
The wonderful charming c0ck tries to scrub the hens backs while they shower. She doesn’t understand and becomes as upset as a wet chicken.
I have always wondered why they censor the dirty word in the description but not in the photo.
I think it has to with search engines They don’t want Google to classify them as an “adult” website or something.

OCR filters: obsessive compulsive rejection.
Actually, a c*ck is a type of valve, therefore legitimate English.
If I had a nickel every time I heard that…
You would owe more than the bailout plan.
It really is a pretty bizarre-looking set of equipment. Looks like something someone into “water sports” might have.
The guards at Guantanamo?
If so, perhaps we haven’t heard the whole truth about “waterboarding.”
Yes, but where’s the fun in that? Being in touch with The Puerile 11-Year-Old Within is much more amusing.
you touch 11 year olds?
Wonder if there’s a Wonderful Hen model? I could use the eggs, rather than have this thing go off at sunrise.
When you get to my age, if the thing goes off at sunrise you just praise the Lord and go back to sleep!
“Isn’t it delightful to have a dong?”
good times.
Good call! Especially as it’s Python!
wang jokes ftw :]
Thankyouverymuch.
It looks like the graphic for the joke that ends, “No, he’s a clarinet player. He’ll teach you how to hold it.”
i’ve heard that one before…
Are my eyes deceiving me?
Does that shower have a remote control?
And if so, why?

Have you managed to obtain a cordless extension cord yet?

No. I’m still looking for a brilliant oxymoron.

Now that you mention it, that does sound like one of his. Well, if you’re going to do it, you might as well crib from the best!
You can just go to your Me Room if you’re going to do That Sort Of Thing.
A better caption for this would be “That’s what she said…” Just had to put my $0.02 in there.
Great name! “Ajohnson153″ could be the make & model of the product in the photo!
HaHa that’s what she said.
oh somebody all ready said that, oh well.
Another: PINGAS!
Not as funny in text…
… named for their tendency to do exactly that.

It is believed this may well have contributed to the fall of the Roman Empire.

The thing you really should be asking is: How the hell can the people responsible for these translations still have a job?
I’m assuming they still have their jobs, as the amount of translational errors on Asian products is insanely high.
that’s prolly cos the other side cannot decide which Asian language to translate to (since there are so many) and thus not bother, resulting in sanely low amounts of translational errors.
Original context? Hihi! Sorry, even the plumbing reference is amusing
Yeah! Everyone knows your plumbing devise is named Mr. Bigowsky.
*Ding* Device. Devise is a verb, device is a noun.
Everyone knows the self named plumbing device is being devised by Mr. Bigowsky.
