I’ve got a bunch of pictures of random Engrish (bad English) that I’ve found around TransWorld. If only people would ask for help or use spell check or pull out a dictionary, this could all be avoided.

Let’s see here. First, it should be ’99, not 99″. Next, you want them to “experience freshman”? What does that mean? You want to students to have sex with the freshman? How should they experience him/her/them?
Obviously, they didn’t ask for any help. If they had, I would have told them “Freshman Experience.” Come on, use a Google search.

The answers are all there!
Ugh… moving on.

They misspelled the name of the school.
All of these mistakes could have been avoided. Why weren’t they?
