- sstidman, on 08/11/2008, -0/+34Oddly, I kind of want to eat at that restaurant now just because of the funny name. Maybe these guys are just brilliant marketers.
- polalion, on 08/11/2008, -3/+29It's a name as much as "fruit" is a name for an apple.

from slashdot:
"Preparing for English-speaking visitors, a restaurant in China recently ran its name through an online translator, took the result, then purchased and mounted a large sign displaying the English version of their name: Translate Server Error." - inactive, on 08/11/2008, -2/+11Enjoy getting banned, i'm sure i'm not the only one clicking report.

- andburn1, on 08/11/2008, -10/+16Please, his ridiculous grandiloquence and improvised pseudo-intellectualism was hardly worth the validation he's looking for; don't give him the satisfaction of being impressed.
- seanstuart, on 08/11/2008, -2/+8Oh damn, my tattoo means "translate server error." Bastard tattoo artist!
