On the mainland Chinglish...

If you know proper Chinese and have even just casual command of English, you would find the ridiculous Chinglish amusing, even entertaining.

There is nothing to laugh about, if someone has no knowledge of it. One would think that, for public signs and displays, governments and companies should at least be a little bit more care in ensuring that nothing is lost (or added) in translation. The way it is now, is a public disgrace and really quite silly, particularly for an emerging world power like China.
