\"Sign<\/a>We love receiving links to funny bloopers. These funny restaurant signs<\/strong> were sent in from a professor of English who uses them in her class.<\/p>\n

The following funny restaurant and hotel signs are real. We think the people who wrote these are in desperate need of our professional proofreading services!<\/p>\n

P.S. If you like these, you’ll love our President Bush Bloopers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sign in a Bangkok bar:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe shadiest cocktail bar in Bangkok.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

– In English, the word \u201cshady\u201d can also mean unsavory or dangerous. This bar is proudly claiming to be a bad place to visit!<\/p>\n

\n

Sign in a Taiwan cafeteria:<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease keep chair on position and keep table cleaned after dying.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

– After dying? This should probably have said “dining”!<\/p>\n

\n

In a Tokyo Hotel:<\/p>\n

\u201cIs forbidden to steal hotel towels please. If you are not a person to do such thing is please not to read notis.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

-Too late; we have read it!<\/p>\n

\n

In a Bucharest hotel lobby:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe lift is being fixed for the next day. During that time we regret that you will be unbearable.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

-An unbearable person is an individual with whom other people do not like to spend time with because they are intolerable or awful. This sign should have said: \u201cTomorrow the lift will be fixed. During this time, we regret to tell you that you will be unable to use it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

In a hotel in Athens:<\/p>\n

\u201cVisitors are expected to complain at the office between the hours of 9 and 11 A.M. daily.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

– So all visitors have to make a complaint? Maybe this should have been written as follows: \u201cAny visitors who would like to make a complaint should visit the \u00a0office between the hours of 9 and 11 A.M. daily.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

On the menu of a Swiss restaurant:<\/p>\n

\u201cOur wines leave you nothing to hope for.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

– We don\u2019t know what the intended message of this one was, but we do know that it doesn\u2019t encourage us to try the wine!<\/p>\n

\n

On the menu of a Polish hotel:<\/p>\n

\u201cSalad a firm\u2019s own make; limpid red beet soup with cheesy dumplings in the form of a finger; roasted duck let loose; beef rashers beaten up in the country people\u2019s fashion.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n

Outside a Hong Kong tailor\u2019s shop at the Peninsula Hotel:<\/p>\n

\u201cLadies have fits upstairs.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

-To have a “fit”\u00a0is to have a convulsion or an involuntary spasm. This should have said: \u201cLadies have fittings upstairs.”<\/p>\n
