Summertime and Stupidity

I hate summer in Japan. At least in the western part it is sweltering in humidity. Fortunately my area has tons of spiders (mostly hanging around over my front door) and a lot of bats (you can see them flying around everywhere) or it would also be thick with mosquitos. You sweat all day until you get back to your 18 degrees Celcius (64.4 degrees Fahrenheit) apartment, and you are frightfully glad that your airconditioner has a timer on it so your apartment is cool when you walk in after work.

I cant wait for winter.....

Now, some stupid Engrish sightings....

Stupid Engrish Entry # 1:

All this advertising, and the bitch wouldn't even kiss me. C'mon now, what's the point of such a shirt if you aren't going to be a slut?

Stupid Engrish Entry # 2:

Salon de Caligula? I am not sure if you are referring to this Caligula, or this one, but either way it doesn't sound like an attractive place to get your hair done... And yes, I am aware that "de" is not English... It is still a stupid name...

Stupid Engrish Entry # 3:

This isn't Engrish, it's Japanese but it is still stupid so I am including it in the foray. If directly translated, in Japanese this says "Caution to the right!". What it means is "Use caution when using this crosswalk and remember to look to the right because that is the direction the oncoming traffic is coming from you dipshit!" Honestly, I dont think I have ever seen a sign in the USA that said "LOOK TO YOUR LEFT!" in crossing the street. If you don't know what direction the traffic is coming from in the country you reside, I say you should just get hit and weed the stupidity out of the population. A reminder to children to look both ways before crossing the street might not be such a bad idea, but this is a bulletin for the stupid...
