I love those websites. Icanhascheeseburger is my homepage.
very amusing having been in Asia
Engrish jokes are funny, but "All your base are belong to us" is the one I remember most.

Back in 2001 and 2002 I shared this with most of my high school classmates, and everybody kept repeating it because it was so funny.

Engrish written and spoken by non-native English speakers may be funny, but English riddled with bad grammar and poor choice of words, based on a mere 300 word lexicon, is just sad and embarrassing.

Don't forget he's an Austrian redneck. His "German" is worse that is his English. He is incapable of speaking anything resembling High German. Therefore, Arnold is dubbed in the German language versions of his movies by this German actor and voice actor.

And while you are at it, what the heck is with the (seemingly growing number of) people in the USA unable to spell (or even pronounce) "congratulations"? There is no "d". OK?

I thought that he did too, but google says that it's just a rumor to explain his incapability of morphing his speech pattern.

People laugh at other people's bad English all the time, but few Americans know more than one language. I'm sure some of these people would make some funny signs as well if they had to use Babel Fish or something similar to translate English into some foreign language. And as mori stated, there are many people who are barely proficient in English, and it's their first language.

Having read machine operating manuals written in engrish, I always wondered why these companies couldn't hire some American or a good bilingual person for one day to proofread what is sometimes rather important text. It makes you wonder what other things should be done (but they don't do) for their product!
