Day 164: “Or have a sex”

Was brows­ing through ShanghaiExpat’s fo­rums to­day and found this gem. I’ll at­tempt to trans­late it into Chinese.

hi, my name is mike, a chi­nese man, 34, i am here to find a forgein woman who likes to hang out with me, or have a sex if it’s al­right for her.

你好,我叫MIKE,中国人,三十四岁。我希望在这里找一个外国女人陪我逛逛,或者上床如果她愿意。

to be per­fectly hon­est i am mar­ried, my wife is study­ing abroad…

说实话,我是一个已婚男子。我的妻子在国外学习。

sex is not the only thing i can think of, in fact, i am re­ally into amer­i­can eng­lish, i would love to have fe­male friends only for this pur­pose, and i could teach her chi­nese as a reward.

我不是只想到上床。其实,我很喜欢美国英语,我也很希望只为这个目的交女性朋友。作为回报我可以教她中文。

if you are in­ter­ested, send a mes­sage to —

如果感兴趣,发送邮件到---。

(To English learn­ers, this guy’s gram­mar is poor so don’t use this post to learn English.)

After re­ceiv­ing some mockery:

your west­erns seem like much opener? i guess i am damned wrong, cheat­ing sucks, can we for­get about the sex part?

我以为你们西方人非常开放。原来我错了。作弊是不好。我们能不能把上床那部分忘了吧?

but i am not a bad man, be­lieve it or not, you wouldn’t re­gret to meet me if you still wanted to, i mean, for lan­guage learn­ing part

我不是一个坏人,相信与否。如果你还有兴趣与我会面,你不会后悔的。我意思是为了学习语言那部分。

But of course the beat­ing con­tin­ues. Enjoy! Actually I feel they went pretty easy on him.

Today’s les­son: “Hang out with me, or have a sex” is not a good pickup line!

Day 160: Love is like defecation

My coworker though I fin­ished trans­lat­ing our com­pany book­let from Chinese to English in only a few days. The truth is I paid my friend to do it. Why did I do that? Because she’s much bet­ter than me at trans­lat­ing. See the above pic? She frickin’ trans­lated it on her blog!

我的同事以为我几天就把公司样本翻译成英文了。其实是我朋友翻译得。为什么给她翻译?因为我想让最好的译者翻译公司的样本。你看上面的图片。她居然把它翻译成英文!

Love is like defe­ca­tion,
you can’s stop it when it comes.
Love is like defe­ca­tion,
when flushes, it would never come back.
Love is like defe­ca­tion,
it’s dif­fer­ent every time.
Love is like defe­ca­tion,
Great ef­fort some­times only ends up in a fart.

Cool huh? Original post is here.

还不错, 对不啦?原来的在

Day 159: Some pics from CIHS 2008

Lately ac­cess to my site has been in­cred­i­bly slow again, hence the lack of updates.

最近我的网站又非常的慢,所以更新比较少。

Last Wednesday to Friday was this year’s China International Hardware Show at the Shanghai New International Expo Center.

上周三至周五是今年的那个中国国际什么什么展览会,在上海新国际博览中心。

Our booth, which I helped design.我帮忙设计的展位。
