Journal rocket_d00d's Journal: Creative spelling 4

Now and then you get to see signs, menus, etc. with sloppy spelling or creative use of the language (be it the local language or English), and sometimes the mistakes are outright funny. Like the one I saw a few days ago at a cafe (picture hosted by tuxette). Now, I can understand that they got the "cheese" part wrong, but what the bloody fuck is a "greasyburger"? To be honest, I'm not really sure whether I would like to be enlightened or not... :-)

      There is also a chain of roadside restaurants here in the Oslo area called "By the way", by the way. I have never been there myself, but with a cheesy name like that it wouldn't at all surprise me if they had a "Cheesy burger" on their menu.

  • Maybe we should get one the next time we're in the area and try one. Just to see what it looks like :-) I'm sure the local seagulls would enjoy receiving it...

      Will you pay for it? Do you think it would be rude if I brought a barf bag?
