Engrish on clothing

[savage]

I was wondering if anyone ever sees' crazy English translations on clothing?

If you got picks, post 'em.

From: South Korea
Size: I don't think it fit anyone older than middle school.

Classic.

not engrish, but i was in a korean grocery and the 14-year-old female cashier was wearing a shirt that read "smells like fish, tastes like chicken"

i wanted to help her, but i didn't know how!

Not clothing but a clothing store. Not the funniest of Engrish either but it was the best example I had to hand.

some of the best products with engrish (that I have pictures of) are: Deeppresso Coffee

My girlfriend's Brother has a shirt that says "Professional Stunt Cock" and has a rooster on it, he had no idea what it meant.

First Kitchen (a large Fast Food Chain in Japan) is often pronounced Fa-kin so basically it sounds like ******* when people say it fast. As seen on an Exhaust system in Yellow Hat: Styrish Type Exhaust system

I thought it was funny that Konami has a Sports Gym that doesn't include a single DDR game and doesn't have VR training for Solid Snake available

Mini Donuts labled "Young Dounuts"

and finally the World Famous Taco Slot, Slot Machine (which was made funnier simply by where I saw it up and operating

well "tako" is octopus, so that mixup seems forgiveable...

when I was in tokyo my then-chick's folks had a peanut butter that was labeled "Peanusu Cream" (Peanuts Cream) and when pronounced sounds exactly like "Penis Cream"

The Soup keeps running a hella funny japanese exercise clip where the girls are saying the funniest engrish phrases

Crappy picture I took near Minami-Senju. It reads (as far as I can remember/tell):

A new kingdom is born
that's enjoy
smile, happy
it isn't been
but a laugh!
Algonquins

that is the one where they are like "Take anything you want!" and "Spare Me My Life" really funny

and on the Peanuts Cream, my girlfriend always says Peanuts Butter (which with an accent sounds like Penis Butter, its hilarious and cute)

I found the TacoSlot funny less because it was an octopus slot machine and more because of the Sexual innuendo for an English speaker and the fact that it was a private slot machine in a love hotel.

That Taco Slot octopus looks like the Octrocks from The Legend of Zelda.

The funniest shirt I ever saw while in Japan (not necessarily Engrish, but still hilarious) was in Niigata City in late 2003. A mid 30's, rather pleasant looking lady wearing otherwise conservative clothing and pushing a stroller had a simple black tshirt that said "BONER POLICE" in all caps.

I wish I had a camera... but alas... I wouldn't have had the heart to take the picture anyway (obviously she had no idea what it meant.) That and I was laughing so hard the picture wouldn't have come out anyway.

Close second was last spring (again in Niigata) and a shirt on a seemingly straight male that said "Let me know if you're into Ball sucking."

Here's a twist:

Does anyone have pictures of shirts targeted for Americans but with f'd up meanings in a foreign language (written in kanji, spanish, etc.)?
