Over a gynecologist's office: "Dr. Jones, at your cervix."

On a plumber's truck: "We repair what your husband fixed."

On the trucks of a local plumbing company in NE Pennsylvania: "Don't sleep with a drip. Call your plumber."

Pizza shop slogan: "7 days without pizza makes one weak."

Outside a muffler shop: "No appointment necessary. We hear you coming."

In a veterinarian's waiting room: "Be back in 5 minutes. Sit! Stay!"

Door of a plastic surgeon's office: "We can help you pick your nose!"

On an electrician's truck: "Let us remove your shorts."

In a non-smoking area: "If we see smoke, we will assume you are on fire and take appropriate action."

On a maternity room door: "Push. Push. Push."

At an optometrist's office: "If you don't see what you're looking for, you've come to the right place."

In the front yard of a funeral home: "Drive carefully. We'll wait."

I gotta snap some pics of poorly translated no smoking signs in Japan... seriously saw one along the lines of "no breathing fire area".

And right before the Beijing Olympics of 2008 there was a known GI institute (gastro-intestinal) in Beijing for teaching and care, even Sx, and they had apparently meant to name it Colorectal Institute or something to that effect, and given that colon cancer is so serious no one would've found that funny...

But due to things getting lost in translation they actually named it Center for the Colon and Anus (meaning colorectal I suppose) lol....But afterwards, when the worst areas were being walled off so tourists wouldn't see so much poverty during the games and other city makeovers were underway they did change that name in the end suppressing the term anus LOL, and although it is a medical term and anatomy should be no laughing matter.... imagine all those tourists having a good chuckle when they saw that...

:blush:
