I stand, therefore I am.
In Soviet Russia, seat waits you!
If you read the spanish, that is literally what the sign is supposed to say. Don’t just sit if you want waiter service
Congratulations on reading the fine print in Spanish.
Yeah. A better English translation, however, would be: “Please don’t take a seat if you wish to be waited on.”
Be sure to leave the seat on location and clean the table after dying.
Looks like they were thinking of saving space. How about the usual “Please wait to be seated”?
Maybe it should say:
“If you want to be ignored, sit”
Moderators,
You might need this ¿

Ah, he’s from Barcelona…
Wasn’t he Portugese, if you actually were from Barcelona?
I think he was German in the Spanish version.
Ohh, Thank you , thank you, thank you for changing it. You do exist and you do read our comments.
@la conejita.. im naturaly hispanic but i gatta know why do we use the upside down question mark?
In Spanish, when you are asking a question you have to start it with the upside down question mark. You can get it by holding the Alt key and typing 168.
This rule is the same for exclamation marks. You have to start the exclamation with the upside exclamation mark. Alt 173
Many of the latinos who are raised here don’t know about these rules. So it’s very common and you are not the only one.
I think that it was a good idea to graphically warn the thicker readers that the sentence they are about to read is a question.
I agree wholeheartedly.
Or does wow mean why is it used in the first place?
Because it doesn’t want to settle for second!
The waiters only serve those who stand up for themselves!
What about those on wheelchairs?
They don’t get served. This isn’t a disability friendly establishment.
That is in the ACLU’s jurisdiction.
I’m more worried about what’s going on in that picture above it…
Me, too.
Does anyone know WHAT that is?
A gallery witnessing capital execution by tennis ball machine.
Looks to me like a miniature version of the Roman Coliseum, although the critters attacking the people seem to be birds and a giant sentient scrambled egg. I’d worry about the sanity and/or substance consumption of the artist…
Now that I’ve studied it further, I think it is supposed to be depicting a beach volleyball match, with gigantic, overly muscled freaks all playing the net while the lumpish puny opponents run pell mell in terror. I can’t see the relevance to an eating establishment, unless the main courses are anabolic steroids and human growth hormone.
They also appear to be playing with a blow-fish instead of a ball, and a chicken is on the side with the scrawly weaklings.
I think that those are seagulls in the right of picture, presumably waiting to crap all over the losing team. It all looks far too strenuous – I shall be on the pier with a jug of iced tea and some dainty cakes. Care to join me, Mr B?
Are they Little Debbie cakes?
No – I want to enjoy a pleasant afternoon tea, not see a grown man behave like a debauched loon in a public place.
Well, I can’t say I’ve ever acted like a debauched loon with a Little Debbie cake.
Honey, ONLY debauched loons eat Little Debbies!
Are they really that good?
If you like corn syrup, hydrogenated fats, sugar and chocolate flavor, they can’t be beat!
Haven’t you heard? John be admitted to being sexually attracted to Little Debbies. This was back when we were commenting about the P0rn Bakerry.
I think it was more of an addiction issue… he had a break-through when he realized the nature of his attraction.
I said nothing sexual about Little Debbies! I admitted finding them irrestible, but only in a gastronomic way. The picture of the little girl on the box does nothing but make my mouth water. For the cakes inside!!! I have a strong libido, and I love food, but those drives are, for me, quite separate.
And that’s the story we’ll tell from now on.
Little Debbie doesn’t exist! She’s like Betty Crocker, Aunt Jemima, Uncle Ben. But there are many tasty snacks under that brand (and yes, of course they’re not good for you), and quite a few chocolate ones, which of course are my favorites. Her Swiss Rolls are to die for.
I suppose debauchery, loony or otherwise, is too much to ask of a little cake.
*disappointed*
Here, have some chocolate and a glass of blackberry wine; you’ll feel better!
When you get to my age, having a third cup of coffee early in the morning is right on the limit of debauchery. I don’t have energy to waste on debauching any more! (Besides which, if I were to do something that was truly debauchery, it would take me days, weeks, or perhaps months to recover!)
Thank you bluejade for being very thoughtful and kind.
The sanity of many artists can be a bit doubtful.
It’s that right-brain thing. I think. Maybe.
Pound to be left-brained
Ezra Pound? Seems to me he was fairly right-brained, albeit in a left-wing way.
Pounding the desk with your brain. Helpful Yes/No ?
I think the picture looks like a tennis match between attractive fit people against unattractive fat people who are running for their lives.
Tennis is played singles or doubles. There appear to be nine on the big people’s side, although I hesitate to describe them as “attractive.”
Yes, now that I look at them, I regret using that word.
I wondered about that.
I guess they’re relatively ‘attractive’. There faces are painted a lot better then the losers on the right.
They certainly look stronger.
They look like bullies.
The ones on the left look like sea creatures…
So may I seat if I no longer wish to be? (No, I’m not suicidal. Just asking.)
You may sit, and we’ll have an intervention.
I NOT HAS A PMS!!!!
Can you double check?
I NOT HAS A PMS!!!!!!
Can you check again?
Please tell us, ShadowSplicer, what it is you’re checking to see if you have a PMS!
I’m not really sure…….all I know is that I NOT HAS A PMS!!!!
but I have you, my friend.
ZOMG NO YOU DON’T!! I HAVE YOU!! *ahem* I mean I have…..the…….and you don’t………..uh…………………
owned. My work here is done.
Grrrrrrrr…………but I………………..I don’t…………..it….is………….a…………………….lie………………
Did somebody mention cake?
Permanent Misery Syndrome?
I hope you’re not lion about it.
I think DnT is referring to the original Cheezburger “I NOT HAS A PMS!!!” “‘k” picture. (You’re best off googling it, the links are often moderated away).
You’re right, Dr.H, but rather than point that out, I was waiting to see if this thread was going anywhere interesting. Apparently not. I googled O’Douls, though. JohnB is safety drinker.
Yes, I got the ref, but just tried to get a little more mileage out of DnT’s “lion.”
Can I drink some safety, as well?
Yes, because if you sit down, lord have mercy, I’ll kill you.
This made me laugh heartily. Silly spaniards.
This isn’t an engrish at all!
It’s just a play on words – “Please wait to be seated.” vs “Please don’t seat to be waited.”
Get it?
Nope. This is a translation from Spanish. If it were English then it would make sense that they are doing a play on words. In Spanish the words wait and waited are totally different depending on what you mean. If it’s wait as in time, it’s esperar. If it’s wait or waited as in serving it would be atender.
Dreadful Pun Hell fairy is in a quandary – on the surface of it, this is indeed a dreadful pun. On the other hand, it’s a witty translation from one language to another, something to be applauded. What to do? What to do?
Right, if it was intentional, they get a *clonk*. If it was unintentional, they get a lol.
Its a translation, so I’m pretty sure it wasn’t intentional
Yep. That’s what I think too.
So, LOL Dr. Handle.
***LOL!!**
I would be inclined to agree, except the Spanish is the smaller sign which makes me think it was translated from the English pun. I would think if it were originally in Spanish the English would be the smaller, no?
It’s hard to tell, since they don’t say where the picture is from. So I won’t argue one way or another.
To seat, or not to seat that is the waited!
In the Milne room of the Poo restaurant, only members are allowed to be.
Then they play poo sticks. Yeech!
You automatically lose if yours isn’t a floater.
Did you know that when poo is nutritious, it floats? If it sinks, EAT YOUR VEGGIES!!
Er, I’m not that concerned about whether my food is nutritious *after* my body has processed it.
The reason poo floats is because it contains eliminated fat. The chocolate bar in Caddy Shack floated because it also contains fat.
I hope toilet sharks can tell the difference.
It’s also partly a matter of fiber content, especially insoluble fiber, since soluble fiber will, obviously, soak up water and thus ends up being about the same density as water. Insoluble fiber (the kind that helps lower cholesterol) tends to be less dense and floats.
You can tell if you are healthy by that. Kind of….
TMI
Now there’s a seat fit to be waited!
Have anyone noticed the impish little gray figure on the right side who has maniac looks and seems to be bombing with dead seagulls?
I’d really love to see other works of this artist, details in this picture are literally insane oO
iv seen this in person, didnt have a camera tho
Oh? Where?
