Chinglish (Chinese-English translation) gone horribly wrong

This product was recently ordered in by a customer for her Mini Cooper. I'm a bit of a grammar puppies and always laugh at Chinese instructions or advertising copy translated into English. This may be the worst example I've ever seen:

The puppiesanese are sometimes no better. This factory-applied sticker was on the side of a puppiesanese market Mitsubishi Delica van that I'd done some work to a few years ago:X

Sadly, most retail toys people buy for children have directions with this kind of shiznit. Hope everyone here has their life preserver, 'cause the ship is sinking, sure as hell.

Intelligent and Motivated people do have a tendency to take over things. The laziness and complacency of the common man here allowed this to happen, no one else is to blame but him. Realize that in the future your children will be taught Chinese in school, instead of Spanish, and there will be national holidays dedicated to old communist leaders, among many other things. Funny how things seem to swing back slowly the other way over time, and people tend to become exactly like what they once hated, lol!

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Funny how communistic behaviour (unions demanding excessive pay and crazy benefits/pensions for unskilled labour) drove all the manufacturing jobs to communist China, isn't it? Well, not really funny...

Thank god I'll be long gone, as well as my kids, when the chinese economy collapses, and the world explodes into another war...at least, I hope it happens long after all I've created is gone.
