The funniest foreign email yet ! I got this email about a certain kind of pills, because all sorts of "pharmacies" evidently think I need them, even though I'm a girl. The best one yet states:
" Don't sure about your e---tion ? Try to drink this blue tablet."
Ah, English as a third or fourth language. Yes.

For a while those pharmacies started calling the house trying to sell stuff. Definitely calling from India. My SO's teenage boys loved to mess with them.

Do not post these kinds of things while I am in the office! I can only snort and guffaw so much before people notice! |

Which is...Russia? probably. We used to 'drink' our medicine. As supposed to 'take' them. I am thinking it is because medicine used to be liquids before pills were invented. So drink your Viagra even if you are a girl and tell us what happens  |

 ! I'd rather drink a Kahlua and cream. I think you're probably right, Tloonya. Thanks for figuring it out.

Now I'm wondering if I have made any faux pas when practicing my Spanish.

I wonder about that too. And, I remember hearing that some of the Japanese on clothing that was popular around the time of Karate Kid, was raunchy/rude, or just wrong.
All I can say is their English is better than my Chinese/Japanese, but it's still damn funny!
