    ._.

    Good GOD.

  2. rober says:

    I’m going to call it.
    totally fake.

  3. Dana says:

    Mm…my guess is Photoshop. Especially in the three lines of text at the bottom.

  4. Solei says:

    This is most definitely a photoshop. Lame.

  5. Lego says:

    Agreed. look closely at the pixels. You can tell.

    • Salamander Sam says:

      You don’t even have to look closely. It looks incredibly fake from the very first glance.

      • Photoshop? says:

        What is it that we’re looking for? How is it so easy to tell that it’s photoshopped?

        • jinx says:

          The way it’s pixelated, if you look around the picture of the child, it kind of looks like there is a box, especially under “Sluggish.” Also signs like that are typically metal, and would either be punch typed, making the letter stand out and have a shadow behind them, or sealed on, making it smooth. The words here look 3-d(ish) but not in a realistic way, more in a sad attempt to make your font look cool kind of way.

          That’s just my opinion…

        • Absynth says:

          The highlight in the outer border has a specular bright spot at the top left corner. This is caused by a point light source. The Highlights on the text and image do no have a specular dot; this is the type of highlight used to produce an embossed or raised look with the Photoshop layer editor’s Bevel and Emboss tool. This type of highlight is produced from a directed ambient light source or distant or nearly parallel light source.

          There is no possible way that the two highlights are on the same flat object.

  6. david says:

    Fake. And FAIL.

  7. Lord Dragon Claw says:

    Fake? Yes. Funny? Hell yes!

  8. IxChel says:

    Good God.
    Imagine if this was real. It might as well read “Lazy Kids Masturbating”.

    • Anneliese says:

      I think it is supposed to be a translation of the “SLOW – Children Playing” sign. I always thought that sign was very awkward as well. If anyone called MY child “slow” I would be angry! LOL

      • FtEustisHousingMaintenance says:

        While you are considering who is slow, consider the Army has made a point that Military Housing should no longer place Deaf Child signs at resident request because somebody may be offended by the word Child….!?!

    • Pretentious White Girl says:

      Thank you, Captain Obvious.

  9. Kaptyn says:

    Can’t you people take a joke? So what if it’s fake! It’s funny as hell!

  10. Beard says:

    Yeah…not real and not funny.

  11. GatorCat says:

    Not Photoshopped. Sold at Spencer Gifts.

  12. karen says:

    You Guys! It means “Slow children at play”

    • Rachel says:

      Oh gee, thanks! Here, I knew what the words “sluggish,” “offspring,” “pleasuring,” and ” themselves” meant individually, but couldn’t figure out the phrase. Thank you, Karen, for helping me with the SUM of the words!

      • karen says:

        yur welcum

      • drwEW says:

        wow u wasted ur time on that comment? typing a whole paragraph just to attack somebody’s comment. ohh my god i hate people like you. you are all very annoying typing whole paragraphs for no reason.

  13. BAW says:

    This is what happens when you try to write in a language you don’t know very well using a dictionary and a grammar book.

    (We really should have some examples of attempts by American signmakers to do Spanish or French signs–I’m sure we could find some howlers!)

    • jic says:

      There probably are Spanish/French-language sites that do just that. But if we did it here, the joke would have to be explained to most of the readers. A joke explained is a joke failed.

  14. Mike says:

    Yes, yes, it’s fake, you can tell by the blur under the word “Sluggish”… however, it doesn’t stop me from wanting to make a ton of those and posting them all over my neighborhood.

  15. Ashley says:

    Ok, I think that sign just won the “Funniest Engrish. Ever. Award” xD

  16. Ashley says:

    Also who the hell cares if its fake? Its funny.

  17. asdgsdfgas says:

    omg… it doesn’t take a damned rocket scientist to figure out this thing is photoshopped. the lighting on the words don’t match the child at all, and you can clearly see where they OVERLAPPED SLUGGISH OVER ANOTHER WORD.

  18. Ryan Russell says:

    I still want one. No, Mike is right, I want 50 and to post them all over my neighbourhood

  19. David Hayter says:

    hehehe… this is funny, real or fake I’d buy it

  20. rissa says:

    haha. I don’t think the pics on this site are as funny as the stuff u guys comment xD I always come here to get a laugh

  21. CTrax says:

    It’s not photoshopped. I saw it at your mom’s house!

    • Pretentious White Girl says:

      a-MEN, brotha!

    • Kanchou says:

      After killing the panda, we’re going after the idiots who think no one should use their brains.

    • Lolnathan says:

      I think the idea is that these are supposed to be funny because they were created in a good faith effort to get the sign/advertisement/whatever right, but failed miserably. If someone intentionally made it incorrect, or worse, it doesn’t actually exist outside of this site, it really doesn’t belong here.

      Yes it’s funny, but it’s not Engrish, since it was made intentionally by some guy who is probably fluent in English.

  23. mars says:

    Well, that’s certainly not photoshopped.

  24. Fail Funnies says:

    I hates sluggish kids who pleasure themselves and FAIL. What a lol pic ;>)

  25. Moonie says:

    was still funneh

  26. fifibelle says:

    I do believe we’ve got a little bit of Brave New World going on here.

  27. DOOM says:

    1000 points if you hit one,whether the sign is real or not

  28. orly? says:

    my cat could have photoshopped this better. and i don’t even have a cat. xD

  29. Smartass says:

    They’re pleasuring themselves! (Yes, I have a perverted mind.)

  30. VBAadmin says:

    THEY ARE SO SLOW AT PLEASEURE! I shall have to buy new ones!
