What's The Funniest Pattaya Store Sign You've Seen?

[booman]

Just a note about aspirated and unaspirated sounds in Thai. Thais have difficulty hearing and therefore writting the difference between a p and b when at the end of a syllable. We've all probably eaten steamed or boiled crap in The Kingdom.

[chinthee]

There is a ton of funny Thai signs here:

On soi kowtaloo the are a few fun signs, to wit:

Bar Ber, I guess you just need to keep your hand over your mug.

Motor Biek Taxi, Im just not quite sure to make of this one.

[rambler]

...and another one!!

How about?.......................Tesco Lotus

They're a joke.

On every police box in Pattaya WE SERVE AND PROTECT......any suggestions as to wot it should say maybe WE LIE CHEAT AND STEAL

GROSSORY SHOP, (forgot which soi I saw it on); I guess they sell gross things...

and

LANQUAGES SCHOOL, (bottom of Soi Khao Talo, just above Sukumvit); no comment needed.

Disclaimer: ok, so we're making fun of their English speaking abilities... but let's acknowledge that on their worst day, their English isstill 1,000 times better the way many of us speak Thai...

SIGN ON WEHOS BEDROOM DOOR - SHIRTS MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES...dont ask me how i know i just want to forget the whole experience!!!!

A couple of friends on their first visit to BKK took a taxi from the airport.  They informed the driver to take then to a nice hotel.  'You know nice hotel' they asked him?

Yes sir , i know.

After driving for sometime, they noticed they were heading away from the busy city area

so they asked again  'nice hotel -  you know'?  Sure, sure sir dont wolly,

Suddenly the car stopped.  Why you stop here they asked?  This nice hotel sir!

Sure enough it was THE NICE H0TEL in some back water litle soi - god knows where.

Only 150 baht per night

Not exactly a sign, but whilst doing a search for property in south Thailand just now..i found this (and remembered this thread)

Condo + girl for a negotiable $600 a month. Bargain?

[farangsay]

I don't know if we know each other but this is exactly what happened to me and my friend on our first trip to thailand now 14 years ago.We stayed there 2 nights and then came to pattaya.I remember at that time "nice hotel" had a branch in pattaya also near soi White rose.Don't know if it's still there.

Over in Amerigay, if you work in a business that ships items often, there is usually a box to fill in for the method of shipping... it's standard to simply write in "best way"... and of course, there is a HUGE shipping company called "BEST WAY". I'm sure they get a lot of business, unintentionally.

One of my favorites is the "Inn Come Hotel " in Chiang Rai. It's either bad engrish or an artfully crafted triple entendre.

[jasperblubber2005]

<_<

while renting a house on soi 4 north pattaya, the sign on my gate said "no praking", what made this funny was, three feet away on the same property was a sign saying "no parking", hard to mess it up but they did

[thatguy]

another chiang rai hotel the Wang Come. very nice place, I've stayed there

[WISteve]

Silly signs in Pattaya?

I can do that!

Let's start small.

Found on Soi 12:

Stating the obvious on Soi Eight:

Found at KISS Food, Second Road.

they want you to buy it here!

On the east side of Suk.

Got any of that "Seented Oil"?

Okay, this one is a t-shirt but still!

How do you spell Canada?

And I don't know WHAT they're selling at this place!

[pepsi666]

[pattayapete69]

The Nice Palace also known as the Nice Hotel....soi1/1 Suttisan....

The Nice Hotel Pattaya....Second rd near Soi Diamond....now called the The Dream Hotel

We were staying at the Nice palace on my first trip and had to drop a mate at the airport...my mate asked the Taxi driver to take us to the Nice Palace and guess where we ended up....at the Royal Palace...interesting tour of Bangkok though.

My favourite sign was in the Jasmine Hotel, yeah the one that had a fire recently in Soi BJ....

No Gambling

All Owed

"This establishment is not reposible for your belongings. Please check your guest before leaving."

Soundman.

Actually, that may be the best piece of unintentional advice ever posted in a hotel room.

[Weho]

This is one of the funniest signs I've ever seen... a bit disturbing, but funny... the venue needs to work on their grammar a tad...

the other entries were great too...

[Thaddeus]

Ghana (accra)

road speed sign 24&1/2 mph ?

could never get a straight answer as to why

Easy ..... it's a conversion from 40kmph into miles (more accurately 24.8548, but that probably wouldn't have fit on the sign)

I did see an advert recently in one of my wifes god-awful gossips mags for "The Gland Hotel" ..... could have been worse I suppose.

[WISteve]

A few more.

Too many typos to count on the drink menu:

They got most of it right on this sign:

But not a trash can in sight:

One of the BEST NAMES for a bar in Pattaya:

Lost to the wrecking ball along Second Road I believe:

SUMMER MADNESS?

Picture taken on Walking Street on Halloween (November 30th) a few years back:

Do you think she's serious about that?
