That isn’t the definition of Engrish. It’s all about whether the word or phrase would be used commonly in English speaking countries. “We love balls!!” is a phrase that would get raised eyebrows in the UK, US, Australia etc. That’s what makes it funny.
Having to explain that, well, it removes some of the funny
You are right!
But then again, if you look at the picture, I think there’s a chance they meant exactly what a native English speaker would interpret it as. I mean rainbows…and the arrows of the male symbols are even touching eachother…I think they love balls in all it’s meaning.
Yes! Dignity fail, as displayed on the face of the dude on the right who, while he is quite fond of balls, suspects his picture may be used to express an inappropriately stronger appeal for balls.
Yes, but if they had two girls saying we love balls, this would probably still end up here on this site, with us talking about the double meaning of the sentence “we love balls”
There was an Italian p0rn-star turned politician who won some public office with the campaign slogan, “I want balls. As hard as walls.” I was amazed at the tolerant attitude of Italians, as well as perplexed by her understanding of male anatomy…
In case you’ll are still wondering: It’s a DVD of the German flick “Maenner wie wir” (Guys like us) that seems to be called “Guys & Balls” in English speaking countries. Well well…
Of course, judging by the ball in the picture, “football” here means what we Yanks call “soccer,” and not our kind of “football” at all. So, just ignore my comments!
OK, the photo is taken in a Book Off store. Book Off has a subsidiary dealing in used computers and electronics, naturally called Hard Off. This all fits in with today’s photo. But why are the price tags in dollars? WhereTF is this store?
By the way the word for the subject is golden balls not steel balls.
Especially balls of steel
Ballin
i really <3 balls!
Hmm….and the characters underneath it actually seem to be coming from that man’s balls.
glad to know i wasn’t the only one that noticed.
Speaking of Balls Of Steel,
embedding disabled by request? screw you youtube!
Let’s try a different one…
What do you have against c0cks?
They look like teenage boys, so the answer is HANDS.
WTF?
Think about it.
Or try not to.
The dude on the right seems only to be mildly intrigued by balls.
The one on the left looks apathetic, also. Or drugged.
this isnt engrish. that is exactly what it says in the japanese part

The guy on the bottom (with the cap) looks like he’s got a rainbow coming out of his pants. Maybe he has disco balls?
He comes in colors, like the old Stones tune.
That does look awesome! A prismatic crotch! Don’t see that every day…
Not since I quit doing hallucinogens, anyway.
Crotch beam FTW?
It is a video of the third floor display of the Amazing Luminous Balls”
i think this is just simply…. a DIGNITY FAIL
Yes! Dignity fail, as displayed on the face of the dude on the right who, while he is quite fond of balls, suspects his picture may be used to express an inappropriately stronger appeal for balls.
He’s being pensive over the loss of his straight image.
Hes not very Gay about the picture but ill bet you he’ll get over it.
puns, here we come.
Niall Quinn’s disco balls?
They look like a couple of effeminate young boys which just makes this all the more creepy.
Yes, but if they had two girls saying we love balls, this would probably still end up here on this site, with us talking about the double meaning of the sentence “we love balls”
Of course! We are equal opportunity ridiculers!
Could be some kind of Hentai…

You simply must go to Italy and do research.
Or it could be just another instance of a politician lying/ not understanding the data.
Great! Think I can get a research grant?
Of course, it could be that she was just used to playing hardball.
Or she was using the walls of a rubber room for comparison.

Oh and it’s about a gay football team of course…
Is there any other kind? I mean, after all, the huddle is a dead giveaway…
Not to mention the quarterbacks always fondling the center while awaiting the snap…
Of course, judging by the ball in the picture, “football” here means what we Yanks call “soccer,” and not our kind of “football” at all. So, just ignore my comments!
Yeah, the regular kind of football… *g*
Yeah, that sport where you actually use your FEET to kick a BALL.
Not just Yank’s us Canadians too, eh?
I have never yanked a Canadian, and I don’t plan to start now.
Yank his balls.
Think we’ll have to agree on that… ;o)
Rugby, certainly; three blokes trying to shove the heads of two blokes up one bloke’s arse, I mean, really, and they show it on the teev too.
Damn you beat me to it!
That movie is funny as all hell
haha.. nice dude..
Gay porn win?
Fun fact: The katakana also can be read as “We Rub Balls”.
O.O
Just in time for Christmas – we love those Schweddy balls!
Guys and Balls! I love that movie. But I can’t decide which is the better title…
I do NOT <3 balls!
I don’t think I’m revealing too much by disclosing I DO have < 3 balls.
Did you use ball blusher?

There is a Book Off in Vancouver, Canada. I don’t know if there are any other Book Offs in English speaking countries though.
*thinks*: erm… the last shelf was Movie titles Q-Z and what is on this shelf … hentai?? *dies* last words: “Shocking. Positively shocking.”
It’s a German movie about a gay soccer team. English title is “Guys and Balls”.
So…it wasn’t exactly lying – they do like balls, don’t they?
It’s a movie about a gay soccer team. It’s supposed to be funny. Jesus.
