Lost in translation

I love love love to read the Japanese signs that are supposed to be English. Some of them crack me up for days!!!!!!!
This is supposed to say "Parking strictly prohibited without permission" How funny is that????
Connie and I saw this one night and were DYING laughing. It says "I feel like a GLANT today" instead of "I feel like a GIANT today" I can see how an L and an I look similar :o) I almost peed my pants when I saw this one proudly displayed in a retail store!!!!!

Not sure what these little car pictures represent. Usually Bailey can figure them out for me....this one lost us.

I know this one is sideways, but it's worth turn your head for. This one took us a while to figure out....go ahead and give it a shot.

Okay, I might have figured out the car one.
No sitting/waiting in car.
Don't rev engine.
Don't hit/bump another car.
...??
Don't leave car idle.

That's my best guess.

Thanks for sharing, that's really interesting. I'd love to see more!

at least you have translations... most German signs don't have translations at all...
