  • With the metal design in LED flashlight, you will be a modern person
  • The special design in the head of surefire flashlight shows your good taste
  • The LED flashlight is a good choice for you to select
  • You will save the electricity and energy when you use the LED flashlight
  • You will be satisfied and content with the LED flashlight

You'd be suspicious if it's well written....maybe someone cloned the cloners?

It is the typing of the language assortment "Engrish"; if you are reading it of frequence, you can type it much fluently..

Bite the wax tadpole - a classic story of mistranslation.

Awesome stuff. As someone that speaks 4 languages, I know exactly what they're talking about.

Lived in Spain for around 15 months at one point and went back to Sweden only to get all kinds
of common sayings mixed up.

Yep, it can be a pain :)

It's funny as hell though :)

These are statements loaded with subliminal imperatives! It's the old Jedi mind trick again. "These are the flashlights you are looking for. Purchase them, go about your business and move along. I do want to sell you lightsticks. No need to go home and re-think your life"

Anyone who tries gets some respect. Americans seem to be in the minority of those who can't speak more than one language. That is not the case in most of the world, where others speak at least their home language and some English.

We have some catching up to do.
