    No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you when he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on, I am your teacher."

    excellent thread. i used to run into shit like this all over Queens when I used to work there, but I dared not bring a camera or any valuables with me to work...

    Engrish for me has also always been a way to describe most and almost every horrible hybrid of English and a native tongue. Spanglish is the only term I've really heard in reverse, and it's equally funny to hear English speakers trying to speak a foreign language by adding Spanish/whatever sounding sounds to the beginning or end of their English words.

    ex. "Yo quiero... er... quiero you me give-o el quesadillo but without... wait... er... no cheeso Americano, no cheeso Americano. OK?"

    edit - had to add this one from the site at the top

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
