Procedure - 1. Rear lamp with primer (pic: a glossy nail with a polish brush at the tip) 2. Apply color glue to the rear lamp (pic: a glossy nail with a polish brush at the tip) 3. Use tweezers to remove the decal and stick it (pic: tweezers and a sticker on the nail) 4. Press with the embossing bar and press it flat (pic: something white on the top of the sticker) 5. Sealed headlamp (pic: polish brush on the end of the nail) 6. Completion (pic: a sticker on a nail)

Got these "instructions" with some self-adhesive nail stickers. (Because, you know, no one could figure out how to use them without directions. 🙄)
If someone could explain it to me, I'd appreciate it. 🤪

How were the subtitles for the film The Tale of Silyan?

Deplorable!

For instance, "ЛОЗЈЕ" in Macedonian is "VINEYARD".
But look how it was subtitled...

That's expensive grapes there!

we verplaatsen de auto's zodat de sneeuwploeg kan passeren;

Damn I’m cooked
Hitting the bed
No rest just thoughts
Keeping me up at night
Is you baby girl
You so fine when I close my eyes
Making all this night time shit beautiful
In the day I’m cooked and night I’m cooked
For real no rest

Photo of the nutrition label/instructions for frozen chicken dumplings. The directions read as follows: "Preparation: boiled 2 quarts of slated water. Ass frozen pelmeni and heat for 8-10 minutes..." (The rest of the label is standard info.)

I've boiled the 2 quarts of slated water, now what was that about my ass? 💚

Google search results for "manuke khara meaning" are pictured. The "AI Overview" reads "'Manuke khara' translates to 'genuine person' or 'real person' in English. The word 'khara' means 'genuine' or 'real'." Down below, a link to the site YouSwear.com has the blurb: "What does manuke khara mean in Arabic? One English translation is 'shit fucker'." "Shit fucker" has been highlighted and a white arrow has been drawn pointing toward it, and in the middle of the pic "So smart" has been drawn.

Watch out, AGI is right around the corner and is prepared to help the English and Arabic worlds find greater harmony through its creative translations.

@edzitron.com, you'll love this AI "translation" of the Arabic phrase "manuke khara"

In a comic panel Harley Quinn wears a black beret and a white and pink checked vest over a white button-down shirt with flared and ruffled sleeves. Her Hyenas, Bud and Lou, have their long mohawks of pink and blue fur tied up with bows. She speaks in horribly translated French, "Es-tu un bon garçon? Oui, tu es! Où se trouvent les toilettes? Une hyène a mon pantalon!" Badly translated French captions read, "Français facile avec Harley." A footnote reads, "Précision non garantie." A caption reads "A Kilowog-core Edit".

Art sampled from "Harley Quinn" Vol. 4 #34 by Tini Howard, Sweeney Boo, Steve Wands, Arianna Turturro, Jessica Berbey, Ben Abernathy, and James Reid. Edits: Altered dialogue and captions in really badly translated French.

The hammock straps we bought came with these #BadTranslation instructions. I particularly like the "Warm Prompt" to not swing to "avoid the unnecessary injure."

But the word "macadam" in note 7 (had to look it up) has me curious as to the original language. Any guesses?
