Older Engrish

I have a special treat for you guys today. I recently dug out this old dollar store children’s diary I found several years ago. I forgot how good the Engrish is. Most of it is weird, random sayings. Some of it is just… well, look at the cover. (I’ll type it out, in case you can’t see it on your screen)

“Good Luck
You’re always on my mind I’ll be there until the end of time
My heart is flammable when I see your beautiful eyes.”

Um… thanks, sleepy sheep!

And in case you didn’t get the message there at the top:

It only gets better.

IMG_2532
MY LIFE PURE LOVE WILL SAVE THE MEMORY”

IMG_2534
“BEST WISHES FOREVER
You have a way of making me really
high on life.”

IMG_2538
“Wishing you every success in your future career”

IMG_2541
“BEET WISHES
I have come here to give you good luck”

IMG_2542
“Let’s go! Hurry up! Welcome to fat land  Oh, shit too past”

I’m sorry, what was that again?

That’s what I thought you said.

Engrish, you are SO GROUNDED.

    OMG!!!!!! LMOA. I think that is actually Englinese (Japanese that was badly translated to English… that what is seems like with all the japanimation)

    Oh my word!!!!!! I had to read some of these a few times to make sure I read the sayings right. I’m going to make this my personal motto: “My heart is flammable when I see your beautiful eyes.” And since I have some stuffed sheep, well, it kinda seems a given.

    I love beet wishes. They usually tend to work out better than best wishes. I think you have to wish over the beet on a full moon in the middle of the night when your heart is super flammable, though. Sometimes that can be hard, especially if you’re in fat land, and ESPECIALLY if things get too past. I love that they attempted poetry though. Aw, cute lil Engrish writers.

    Thanks for making my day!

    That’s hilarious! The girl ‘beeting wishes’ is scary to me…
