oh god when i was in china and vietnam i saw a lot of hilarious translations. and they were in places that you shouldn't laugh but you do anyway. like inside factories and i think i saw some at the vietnam war museum...which is totally not a laughing place but some of the translations were soooOooOoOO messed up.
