I'm not surprised though. I've seen many weird translations on items sold at the local Chinatown. Some are actually very spot on while others you shake your head and wonder what went wrong there.

you must understand that, as would with other languages, some words simply cannot be translated directly to a word...especially if there is grammatic usage that applies. As a Chinese guy its best to simply translate on the fly certain topics to avoid an embarrassing outcome

This reminds me of the Surefire ebay auction. :laughing:

LMAO! Classic! "this fish light is straight baller son!*"
That's all we need now, rappers representin' on MTV cribs with their fish lights... "Yeah son, I got this Surefire fish light, 120 lumens on high five on low son. I keep it right here in the fridge next to my Crystal, Chillin'." or, "That's how we do, Fenix for life homie" or perhaps: "This fish light is one of a kind, made for me by McGizmo, that's right, MCGIZMO SON! Tritiums in the tail AND reflector and it's even got the low-low. Ain't no other rapper alive can say he's got one like this. Wut you got on THAT gangsta?"

Then congress really will pass laws against them: "The fish light prohibition and concealment act of 2012" states: "no person or baller shall carry or conceal any fish light (or flashlight [a colloquialism for fish light]) capable of lighting up like a prison yard during an escape or keeping crackheads from swallowing said merchandise"




*Rumor has it that "this fish light is straight baller son!" will eventually phase out "worlds finest illumination tools" as the new Surfire slogan.
In all seriousness if someone were to photochop this onto the current logo I would be eternally grateful, because I would very likely die laughing.
