Not Hungry

March 18th, 2008

Had a great time at Sumo, and highly recommend it for all. I’ll save that commentary for a more relevant post. For now, I thought I’d share a funny goof-up on a sign spotted in an elevator that made me instantly lose my appetite…and laugh. Ha ha. Can you spot the flubbed line? (Hint: one copy of the poster had the word “taste” where the error in this one is.) :shock:

Credit for finding the screwup and the original: Kathy.

  • Nicole...it's sad that you feel left out for not winning a penile prize. I mean, seriously. Issues. :-P
  • God damn. i TOTALLY read the same article, but thought it was too low brow to post on Deas's extremely classy blog. . .

    Had I known there was a penile prize involved at a restaurant... Ah well. Next time I'll know not to hold back.

  • I dunno if they actually realize that it's wrong...they read it with Japanese pronunciation...so...hmmm. But they had at least one copy that was alright. Ha ha.
  • Bonnie
    Ew. I may not be hungry for a while now....although I agree with Nicole that it's hilarious they don't deem that enough of a faux pas to take it down or replace it...then again maybe they serve those too......*shiver* :)
  • At the testes restaurant in Osaka. ;-)
  • Yes! Something to add to my CV! Where can I pick up my prize?

  • Tom - you win the prize for posting the weirdest link in a comment on my blog that made it past the spam filter despite being penis-related. I don't know if I'm supposed to congratulate you here or rue the day. :-P (I'm editing your comment to make a pretty link so people know what they're clicking...)

    This is where they're a delicacy:

    China's Penis Restaurant - Times Online

    Why am I not suprised?

  • Um....Mom....it definitely says "Delicious / Pursuit / Testes." TESTES. Testicles. I think that ought to make it pretty clear. Ha ha. You know you can click on the pictures for bigger versions, right?

    Now I just gotta shake off the awkwardness of pointing out the word testes on a sign to my mother... Ha ha ha. :-P
  • Mom
    Okay, share the joke with those of us who don't see it...
  • Ha ha ha ha. Reminds me of Chevy Chase in Funny Farm. Loves 'em until he discovers what they are.
  • They didn't think it was worthy enough of an error to take down though eh? fantastic.

    I'll have you know they're a delicacy... somewhere.
