February 12, 2008: Alphabet blocks from China

Originally posted over in the humor thread, I've been encouraged that these are simply too mind-boggling to let slip by.

We're all familiar with the typical humorous mistranslations on street signs and advertisements in foreign countries, especially in Asia where the language structure is so different. But one would hope that people and products purporting to actually teach English, like a set of alphabet blocks aimed at children, would go through a slightly better quality check.

Apparently not.



The above is just the second in a series of increasingly horrific images, which really must be seen in its entirety here.
