"Preparing for English-speaking visitors, a restaurant in China recently ran its name through an online translator, took the result, then purchased and mounted a large sign displaying the English version of their name:

I would assume not, since they put it up there like that. And anyway if you speak English and see a sign in Chinese, would you be able to tell if it was wrong?

I speak both Chinese and Engrish

Also, I wonder what translation server they used, hopefully not B-fish because I use that a lot.

Adult Swim was great until Robot Chicken was forced upon us from the deepest, darkest pit of Hell.

vut

Robot Chicken is about the best thing on Adult Swim, really. Better than the generic crappy anime, anyway.

I liked almost everything pre-Robot Chicken. Futurama, Family Guy, Aqua Teen, Sealab, FMA, Venture Bros (not sure if that was before or around the same time as RC, I lose track of time). I used to plan entire weeks around making sure I would get home before 11:30 so I could see Futurama and the two ATHF episodes. Ah, the good old days, back around '05. Even Inuyasha was ok, borderline good. I don't know how you guys felt about Home Movies, but I thought it was pretty funny and I was glad they picked it up for more seasons.

The only good thing since then has been Death Note, and that's just them buying series and playing them (Before someone jumps on my ass about that statement, I'm not saying they didn't buy anime and shows to play before [e.g., FMA and basically all of their anime], but they really haven't done anything creative in a long flipping time. Assy McGee? Squidbillies? Wth is that?) Anyone else miss the old-style bumps during commercials?

Also, I move that all time and shows from before Robot Chicken be referred to as B.C. (Before Chicken) and all shows and events since be referred to as A.R. (After Robot).

Robot chicken is funny and really well done, for the most part. Family Guy is Family Guy-- pretty darn disposable. Aquateen hits it sometimes but goes off on just pure obscenity for it's humor. Sealab is silly and I usually get a laugh out of it. Venture Bros is absolutely fantastic in every regard, and I can't believe it's got as low of a placement as it does. Futurama is pretty nice, but there aren't enough episodes for there to ever be one on that I haven't seen. I think I've seen each episode at least three times now, and I don't explicitly seek them out when they're on. Home Movies is a show I love. It's very postmodern. Also funny! :3

Squidbillies is pretty much ATHF with more dumb and less funny, and there wasn't a ton of funny there in the first place. Assy is just about the worst thing I've ever seen, partially due to it's artistic direction.

Uuuh... that's all. Eiii has spoken!
