 |
|
I was in HomePlus this week and bought a bunch of the single packaged Christmas cards. I started reading the little messages/poems on them and some of them are just bad English mistakes. I thought they were funny and that others on this board might get a kick out of them as well.
Luckily the print on the cards is small enough that a majority of the people I'm sending them to won't be able to read it. 
#1
Seasons greetings and best withes for the new year
May you have a joyous and festive holiday
We with a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Here's hopping your day is filled with delightful surprise!
#2
Do you think Santa will come tonight~
Stay free where no wails divide you...
You're free as a roaring tide so three's no need to hide.
Our frist Christmas together.
Sending you a white Christmas!
Merry Christmas come to here with best wishes for the Christmas and new year!
Wishing you special happiness and a wonderful Christmas!
Anyone find any other unusual Christmas card messages? |

No not a newbie just got a kick out of the cards.
Chalk it up to sleep deprivation due to illness, but they struck me as funny today. |

Dude I've been here four years and never get tired of Engrish.
To the OP: Thanks for the tip. I need to check out some christmas cards for a new source for my "Engrish tshirt finds" segment on my podcast. Winter makes it hard to spot people in funny tshirts. |

| Yeah that's kind of what I thought to...it was something funny. Thought it was along the same lines as the t-shirt thread. |
