    It’s not a real mustache, it’s only drawn on with ink.

    • hollyr57 says:

      Nice, DNT! Both the first comment and the cleverness of it.

      • Droll not Troll says:

        Now there’s a nice coincidence! I’m sure my comment above was a result of your recent comment where you were pretending to be Groucho. I was trying to come up with a suitable reply to that, something about the mustache, and then this pic came along.
        Thanks, Holly. Sometimes teamwork just happens.

        • JohnB says:

          As I’ve said before, most of the LOLZ here do result from the interplay, not necessarily the Engrish itself, although that can provide lots of laughs in itself. But those who don’t read the posts miss the most clever, witty stuff.

    FIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • Really First says:

      Loser! Nyah nyah!

    • hollyr57 says:

      We’re well advised never to claim that on the Engrish site as so many of us type & enter our comments at the same time.

      • JohnB says:

        If only he’d have left of one or two of the exclamation points, then perhaps he could have been first! Such tragic consequences can be avoided by simply asking oneself, is this exclamation point really necessary?

        • paws4thot says:

          Sure, if he’d used fewer characters, he might have been accurate, but he’d still be an idiot.

        • hollyr57 says:

          I know that exclamation points should be used sparingly but it’s one of the only three vices I have left. And the give a real sense of how I’m speaking: with a lot of emphasis. Not a very good excuse, but true. You’re right about the irony of it all, though!

  3. Droll not Troll says:

    I wonder if the Roasted Skewer is really a Roasted Skua- for those who think steamed tit is only a snack.

  4. Droll not Troll says:

    If # 170 is an instruction, there better be a female sailor….

  5. PoodleGroomer says:

    Using a skewer for a tongue stud is hard on the teeth and gums.

    • JohnB says:

      Since it’s roasted, and presumably still hot, I’m sure it doesn’t feel too good on the tongue, either.

  6. PoodleGroomer says:

    Is the squid mustache related to the bearded clam?

  7. nmh says:

    I like how the title says “he’s says” instead of “he says”. The title is engrish itself!

  8. JohnB says:

    Since “O” is an old-fashioned code for a hug, and “X” is code for a kiss, #172 appears to be instructions for foreplay, for a not-very-bright person.

    • PoodleGroomer says:

      But it still doesn’t explain how he got a skewer through his tongue. I’m sure it is in his Emergency Room medical chart. His folder is the thick one.

      • paws4thot says:

        I’m guessing because it failed to observe Instrument Flying Regulations when visibility was under 800 feet?

        • JohnB says:

          I would think you ought to use IFR any time you’re making out while piloting a plane, regardless of visibility. But in general if you are intent on joining the Mile High Club, I think there are safer ways.

      • dr handle says:

        Well, he was practising his O and X on a young lady whilst they were trying to eat kebabs, and he slipped on some hommus, and, well, it all got a bit untidy from there.

    • Droll not Troll says:

      If they’re that slow, it would be best for us all if they never got beyond the foreplay.

    • bluejade says:

      If you order #172, you get a hug and a kiss with tongue. Seems pretty straightforward to me! Say, what kind of menu is this…?

  9. olololwtfomg says:

    0 x tounge? but i cant eat that much

    • JohnB says:

      I never did have ox tongue (although having sliced up many a cow’s tongue on a slicing machine, I assume ox tongues are similarly massive), but I once had dinner cooked by a friend who was a bit of a gourmet chef. She served oxtail stew. It really didn’t taste bad, but I had a lot of trouble getting my mind around the fact that I was eating something from the hind end of an ox! Making an attempt to be gracious, I forced it down, and declined any further invitations for dinner at this friend’s house.

  10. Ceefax says:

    Mild green hairy lip-squid

  11. james says:

    ox and cow are one and the same, are they not?

    and anyway, chinese doesn’t distinguish between the two, if there is a distinction to make.

    the mustache should read ‘hair’ – it’s a kind of dried shredded meat, in this case squid, but usually pork or beef/ox.

    • Bryonia says:

      Yes, they’re the same. An ox refers to cow (usually a castrated male, a steer) used to pull a wagon, plow, etc.

      The use of like oxtail for describing meat doesn’t necessarily mean the cow it came from was a draft animal.

      <..>

      And squid mustache makes me think of Warcraft.

      • JohnB says:

        As I have often noted, this site is very educational. I always thought the ox was a closely related bovine species, different from a cow. But you are right, an ox is just a cow, usually castrated, trained to draft. Of course, there are several closely related bovine species that can interbreed, which makes cattle complicated.

        • Droll not Troll says:

          I always thought “cow” referred to the female of the species, which would make them kind of hard to castrate.
          My dictionary gives one meaning of “ox” as any domesticated cattle, cow or bull, kept for milk or meat. The other definition is a castrated bull used as a draft animal.

          • JohnB says:

            Having grown up in suburban New York, I am woefully deficient in farm terminology. I still get confused, for example, as to exactly what a “heiffer” is. I had a therapy client who was a farmer, and he’d talk about his struggles with his work, and I had more trouble making sense of farming than of his mind.

            • blueJade says:

              A “heifer,” with one f, is an adolescent female bovine. They are noted for friskiness and unpredictable actions. Sound like anybody you know?

  12. KinkyTom says:

    Hey Vegeta what does the scanner say about the sodium lvl in that Pork with Salt?

    IT’S OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I don’t care if that meme’s old it’s still awesome :D

    imo

  13. A Noun says:

    Moustache followed by tongue…just another Saturday night

  14. The Shocker says:

    You have to be careful when you order the squid mustache. Often times they will try to disguise moose kankles and serve that to you instead.

  15. r says:

    the reason it’s on a skewer is because the moustache is so small

  16. Tickled Drink says:

    They did it wrong…. The mustache is in the SAKI, not the skewer… oh well… at least they have that rare delicacy…
