Shocking Taiwanese T-shirts

.

Yup - most likely the selfsame parents who spend a shitload of money sending the little darlings to buxibans, and speak to them in loud, horribly mangled Engrish when a furriner is within earshot :wink:

Porn is the new black.

Never mined (on an 18 or so year old girl)

do the people wearing these t-shirts not care that they look like mongs? i think these people need to be ridiculed more. they deserve it, they pay the English teachers to baby sit thier kids and sing and dance while they are walking around with bad English that makes them look like pure retards.

i saw a middle aged woman a few weeks ago in shilin, out with the family. she had ‘you. me. bed. now.’ printed big on a t-shirt. got a good photo of it, might upload next time.

Those are the funniest ones, because it’s fairly obvious they don’t know what the words say. I saw a 50-odd year old woman on the MRT a couple of days ago wearing a pink “Little Pussy” T-shirt.

Although on second thoughts, maybe they DO understand what it says. :astonished:

Judge not lest ye be judged.

Sorry to make my first ever post seem less than kind, but someone is seriously advocating that people be “ridiculed” over t-shirts with “bad English” on them. They “deserve it,” according to him. Of course, in “ridiculing” these people who “look like mongs,” the author demonstrates his own “bad English,” thus joining the ranks of the “mongs” himself. The irony is delicious.

Blasting someone on your first post? You’ll fit in just fine.

Quit attacking the newbie. Jeez, no wonder we don’t get new people around here anymore. :wink:

I’d say the poster did a good job blasting himself… in the foot.

if i was an English teacher you might have a point, but i am not and never will be, due to the retarded nature of that industry in Taiwan. if i was an English teacher i would have some pride in my work and make an effort to write proper English on here. as it is i write casually on-line and i don’t have the best grammar and spelling, that’s for sure. if they had t-shirts with only bad grammar and spelling i would not mock them. but its quite different from what is actually going on.

they are wearing things that are offensively stupid and they have NO idea of the meaning. its especially stupid when the only work(almost only) available to a foreigner in Taiwan is English “teaching” they love English, they want to use it and wear it on their clothes and use it for their business’s but they pay their English teachers to babysit, act like clowns and to basically give the kids parents face because they are white. its a joke.

People should always make the effort to write like civilized people. I can understand a typo, and I can understand that you might have spelling errors if you’re writing in a language other than your own, but I think that’s not the case. “Casual” writing is another way of saying that you don’t give a sh*t about the language. Why don’t you use pictograms, like cavemen? It would be totally casual!

Back on topic:

T-shirts are like tattoos. People that don’t have the slightest idea about a foreign language may decide to get one because the design just looks “cool”. I can even imagine a ill-willed designer presenting the art to his clients, and convincing them that the design looks really cool, and laughing inside because he has sold them a t-śhirt that says “I’m a retard and I don’t speak english”. Or the chinese guy convincing a foreigner addicted to the gym to get a tattoo that says “I’m a sweet transvestite”. I can’t find another explanation for some of the photos. “My pussy smells of Pepsi-Cola”? Come on, that’s not a typo, and that’s not a translation error. The guy that did it totally knew what he was doing. Same case for a tattoo I saw once, a ripped bodybuilder that had “girl power” tattooed in japanese (a japanese friend translated it for me)… I’m sure he asked a japanese speaker for the translation of “ultimate badass” or something like that, and the japanese speaker decided to play a joke on him.

Yep, a few months back they put up a new plaque at CKS Memorial. First line read “Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hell.” No way that was a typo.

I’ve a feeling some of these t-shirts are designed in the Philippines or something, having a laugh at our Taiwanese friends.
Or else there are some really strange designers in Taiwan.

I was at World Gym in Taichung around 15:00 or so a few weeks back, and I saw a local woman who appeared to be in her 50’s walk in wearing a bright green shirt that said “I’m not saying I’m easy, but we can discuss it”.

Purple /yellow shirt with university style font - " I steal for a living" … he must get allot of attention while shopping abroad.
