31 Brilliant examples of Engrish fails... from Mikepattonfan (Sean Warhurst)
In tribute to Japan and the recent trials they are still experiencing- You know, that whole Godzilla destroying their country thing - Here is a visual tribute to the ineptitude of the translation skills of the land of the rising sun and other Asian countries! And by the way, wasn't it nuclear power that inadvertently spawned Godzilla in the first place? Did we not learn anything from the great Gamera disaster of '69 and the Mothra invasion of '83? Nuclear power just ISN'T worth the ramifications of giant monsters. So without further ado, from the lands that gave us food such as free range Penguin dicks on a bed of sauteed Panda assholes come these mass fails.

CHRIST ON TRIAL AN Investigation into the Authenticity of the Gospels This new volume of unique biblical revelations by Tony Bushby sizzles with sensational disclosure. This book takes the form of a Court Case in which the Prosecutor delivers a case that opposes the genuineness of the Gospel stories and the Papal Defence argues that Christian Scriptures are the unadulterated 'word of God' and therefore beyond dispute. A riveting courtroom debate ensues around the primary point that contests the Gospels of the New Testament do not relay real past events and are misunderstood if taken as the products of historical thinking. Christ on Trial presents a healthy and inclusive debate of significance to anyone with the remotest interest in Christian origins and brings forth radical new information about the origin of the Gospels previously unpublished.

I hesitate to say that any of this is exactly Zen (oh how often we as a culture misuse the term “Zen” — like, “Whoa, that tapestry is so cool, it’s really Zen“), but it certainly favors a sharper, shorter style than the blathering wordsplosions I tend to rely on in my day-to-day writing posts. Anyway. Peruse these. Absorb them into your body. Let your colonic flora digest them and feed them through your bloodstream to the little goblin-man that pilots you.
