A little gem..

There are somethings in life that no matter how many times you read them they always make you chuckle.
I hope the BBC keep this page active long enough for you all to see it.........

That's funny.

They should just be glad that's the message they got returned to them. It could have been worse.

Stuff like that is funny. I often read translated owner's manuals as they quite often are humorous, too.

Lian Li in their manuals has a few good ones from someone who is obviously not a native speaker of English. I sent Lian Li an email offering to proofread their manuals in exchange for a free computer case. I never heard back from them.
