Been into old Datsuns for years, some of their instructions are downright incomprehensible.

"If the picture above you compare by sight, the difference is glance obviously"

"It fitted enormously."

"This most in regard to piston compression gear position * & * of the D strike Lee view tar with dead point is expectation."

With my Japanese wife I'm enjoying this stuff on a regular base.
Here's something I found hilarious.

In the RC helicopter world one of Wltoys most popular micro helicopters was sold for many years with "do not fly with borken blades ". This was pointed out on many forum threads that I read but sadly I'm dyslexic and for ages I could not understand what people were laughing about :oops: I got it eventually.
Being dyslexic makes you laugh regularly though, I still see vans on a daily basis that advertise a "free devilry" service, never seen a free godliness service but I'll keep looking. :wink:
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

I was checking out this neat, cheap rock crawler just come out of China on eBay:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/JJRC-2-4G-4CH-4WD-Rock-Crawler-Car-Truck-1-14-Off-Road-Climbing-Vehicle-Toy-New-/332487817883

One of the more attractive features of the car is the anti-crapping bumper design. I guess that feature goes hand-in-hand with anti-squat? :lol:

:lol: Somehow, I found that last one especially funny as I just had a colonoscopy this morning. Honestly, I did. :oops:

I wish I shared this a year ago, now the product no longer exists on Amazon...I was looking for a new drum throne for my drum kit and happened upon this rather unfortunately-named brand in my search: ICHIIAS

Something tells me I don't want to be sitting on something that might give me an itchy ass.... :lol:

I joked about it with the guys in my band but should've shared it here too, even if it's a tad off-topic. The product brand no longer exists...I'm guessing with a name like that, it wasn't a top seller... :mrgreen:

Not really a typo, but when extra heavy duty just isn’t heavy duty enough.
