Engrish Tuesday

Full Automatically

This was a sign inside the restroom at a waystation on the way to Kyoto. Based on the context and location of the sign, it is easy to understand that they actually meant to say, “This restroom is fully automatic.” But, somehow, the alternative is so much more amusing. It is fun to imagine what a full automatically restroom would be like.

    I LOVE that image! It totally made me smile as I imagined the scenario you spoke of. I am sure my co-workers wondered why I was sitting at my desk, grinning stupidly, but who cares!
