Bad Translations - Another illustrated short story by Felicia Stevenson

Pin It
I recently bought a T-Shirt that had one of those really itchy tags that they now strangely put midway down your side, which, while not the subject of my post, really really bugs me by the way.

If you speak any French at all, take a look at the washing instructions on the itchy tag in question and tell me if you see anything wrong with this:

The End. 

 I told you it was short.
