YSaC, Vol. 529: Pet Sounds? Hah! We have pets TYPING!

I LIKE TO LET EVERONE KNOW A PET STORE IS OPENING


THE store name is critters and more and we will be have all type of
pet thing for all you critters need we will be open next week for sure
we are trying for this firday wish us luck but you are all wecome to
came and see waht we have to ofter we will be having a dog wash and
baiec naile and wah dry we are wnt to have that open by the frist of
the year

WOW this is a post on you suck at craigslist and this is a site where
we will be have all time of craigslist adds and we make fun of them by
putting up a new post each firday and pineday and elmday and you
are all wecome for a dog naile wah dry and by the frist!

I wonder if the capitalization at the beginning is like that big illustrated letter at the start of illuminated medieval manuscripts. I also wonder if this entire post was actually written by one of the critters. Possibly a rooster with a typewriter. (buy a shirt!)

Thanks for the link, JD!

          take off every ‘Zig’ is about half way through. Here are the “lyrics”:

          For great justice, take off every ‘Zig’
          Move ‘Zig’, move ‘Zig’, move ‘Zig’, move ‘Zig’
          You know what you doing take off every ‘Zig’
          Move ‘Zig’, move ‘Zig’, move ‘Zig’, move ‘Zig’

          It was all based on the game “Zero Wing” which has the second best helping of Engrish in any game I’ve ever played. It’s also the most well known.

          The best helping of Engrish is in the game “Battle Rangers”.

          And I quote: “You! Invaders! Get you the hot bullets of shotgun to die!”

      Stephanie, don’t you think it was meant as a warning, though? That’s how I read it, anyway…”FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, STAY AWAY FROM THIS PET STORE. There are dogs being washed! Some sort of nail-based goings-on! THINK OF THE CHILDREN!” *hand wringing commences*

        Or maybe it’s an evil pet store…… Built on an Indian burial ground. With animals provided by Pet Sematary….. And dogs being washed with hellfire. And luck being wished by Satan!

    Wow. I hope EVERONE sees this by the frist.

    Sounds like a cowboy dude name or a Sci-Fi hero from the “fruture” or even a lame ass band name (probably only play instrumental).

    I’d go because I need to get my dog nailed, but they didn’t mention whether appetizers (horses doovers) would be served.

    Well, erm, no sorry I give up. Normally I can sort of translate these things into something resembling English if I give it a few minutes. This one though is giving me a head ache. I think I see where sentences should start and end, and I think I get most of it, but…….

      “Baiec Naile” is a French ska band; I’m almost sure of it.

      I think they’re going to be playing at the opening of THE store. As well as washing and wah drying your dogs.

      I certainly want to attend this baiec naile! That’s a dramatic musical composition, often depicting a drunken revel. And if the music is as good as this poster’s writing, there had better be some drunken reveling going on.

      I’m totally on board with “baiec naile” being gaelic of either Irish or Scots origin.
      … Either that, or someone with a cold was dictating again. “Baiec naile” = bake sale (what this has to do with pets and critters – don’t ask; I’ve been on planes far too long today and feel like I’m still moving, even though I’m home).

      After checking two of my mail accounts and Facebook, I logged onto this site. This is the first non-mail/non-network site that I open these days. Is that good or bad?

    I believe this person is using the 12 Beer Advertising writing style. First, the writer drinks 1 beer, then he writes the title line. The writer continues drinking 1 beer after writing 1 complete thought (no punctuation necessary), until he has drunk all 12 beers.

    Using this method, the ad writer attracts the potential customer’s attention with a legible, capitalized title line. By the time the potential customer reads the entire ad, he is so befuddled that he is willing to buy whatever the advertiser is selling.
