Brown Eyes:
This thread is always good for a laugh. So bumping! It had slipped a little too far down the page list. For anyone who hasn't seen this thread before... even though it's long, it's really worth reading it from the beginning. Classic.
;D :laugh:

I love, "I got your queer case open" -- who in the world is writing these things? Seriously? I mean, I could understand if you made a few flubs every now and then... but to be in charge of this and to seemingly not know the language at all. It's just comedic.
I second the person that said if I ever learn a language... I want it to be just as entertaining when I speak it as this. :angel:
Otherwise, what's the point?

I always thought "creel case" was a bit odd. The thing is a creel - a basket with a slot in the top for just-caught fish, that's what a creel is. Or did he never take his creel out of its creel-case....?
I wonder if there's some audio version of Babel Fish they're using, or Dragon Dictate?That would explain it, a little.
But we should be charitable. I bet your Malaysian is a bit rusty, I know mine is.

One of these days I have to copy those subtitles and save them. Every time I read them I laugh so hard I almost have an accident. ... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
