I work just south of Chinatown, where I saw this t-shirt on sale on Friday:

Engrish t-shirt seen on Spadina

Odd as Engrish can be, it usually makes at least some sense. Whoever made this shirt wasn’t even trying.

They’ve just lifted the description of a horse named “Confetti”

(thank you Google, lol)
ginny 04.20.08 at 1:02 pm: Odd that they changed the spelling from Kayleen to Cayleen, but then again they totally phoned in the latter part of the description.

Any ideas what the graphic has to do with horsies? Me, neither.
Brent Morris 04.20.08 at 2:49 pm: Perhaps they are just using random spam gibberish as source material.
Alexandra 04.20.08 at 10:51 pm: I really want that t-shirt, if just to confuse everyone who sees me wearing it.
vladmir 04.21.08 at 1:56 am: wow. i would wear that shirt just for kicks though.
