"Is 'tartlet' spelled with an r or an l?"
"Meh, who cares? Let's just cover all our bases and put both."
For some reason, Japan loves the "No ___, no life" phrase, and they come up with some really creative ways to fill in the blank.
My absolute favorite are these gift bags that always have puppies saying really cute Engrish phrases.
There's actually an exclamation* point at the end of that, just in case you thought it was just a jumble of words and not an actual sentence.
*edit: I had originally written "explanation point", because that's the kind of thing you write when you've been in a non-English speaking country for too long. Just like this afternoon when I momentarily thought, in front of an entire class of students, that the past tense of "fight" is "fighted".
This will certainly be continued..... :)
