  1. Do they have men in stock too?

  2. Achilles Cat says:

    What does a Ladis Sock look like? Is it like a tabi sock with one toe? Do the ladies want to be underwater? And what about those pujamas? And do those really go with dusters? Are they feather or synthetic dusters?

  3. KinkyTom says:

    This store doesnt look like it’s under the sea :P

    Why would mermaids need socks?

  4. bluejade says:

    Caption fail. The engrish spelling is closer to “laddies.” I am convinced it is laddies socks and underwater laddies being offered.

  5. JohnB says:

    KAOS KAKI WANITA? Does Maxwell Smart know about this???

  6. fpelayo says:

    It’s almost fitting that underwear got engrished into something where underwear is irrelevent. :P

  7. ucing says:

    Kaos kaki wanita is in Indonesian for women’s socks. don’t know why the nightgown called daster. btw, what they meant with ladies under water is women’s lingerie

    • moe says:

      Interesting. Wanita means woman in some Indian languages too. I don’t know Indonesian but I often see words that are similar to Sanskrit/Hindi – bhaasha/bahasa (language), kamra/kamar (room), etc. I guess it’s because of a shared Indo-European root language, shared Hindu and Buddhist heritage, and trade since ancient times.
      .
      Is it possible the “dusters” are really aprons or smocks?

      • Worrier Princess says:

        My mother used to use the word “duster” to mean “housecoat”. But then, she was from Newfoundland, where they have a different word for everything!

      • andry says:

        bahasa indonesia is influenced by sanskrit language.
        i think that explains the similairities between bahasa indonesia and indian language…

  8. dr handle says:

    The “duster/pujamas” is just a case of adding an extra descriptor to the pyjamas, recognising that after they are too worn out to be used as pyjamas, they inevitably find their way into the rag bag and an honourable retirement as dusters (although my flannel jammies usually go on to second careers as bike polishing rags). Unless it’s some new garment that’s mean to be used as a duster while it’s being worn; just pop these jimjams on, put some Johnny Violent on the stereo, and slam-dance your way around the house to pick up that dust!

    • Gorgon Medusa says:

      Beat me to it – AGAIN.

      I was going to post that when my pyjamas are worn out, I cut them up and use them as dusters.

      Clever posters here at EngrishFunny. Every joke I ever think of posting is always already there.

  13. Ditz says:
