In a Bucharest hotel lobby: "The lift is being fixed for the next day. During that time we regret that you will be unbearable".
In a Yugoslavian hotel: "The flattening of underwear with pleasure is the job of the chambermaid".
On the menu of a Swiss restaurant: "Our wines leave you nothing to hope for".
In an advertisement by a Hong Kong dentist: "Teeth extracted by the latest Methodists".
In a Belgrade hotel elevator:"To move the cabin,push button for wishing floor. If the cabin should enter more persons, each one should press a number of wishing floor.
Driving is then going alphabetically by national order".
In a Rhodes tailor shop:"Order your summer suit. Because is big rush we will execute customers in strict rotation".
In a Bangkok temple:"It is forbidden to enter a woman even a foreigner if dressed as a man".
In a Norwegian cocktail lounge:"Ladies are requested not to have children at the bar".
In a Copenhagen airline office: "We take your bags and send them in all directions".
In an Acapulco hotel: "The manager has personaly passed all the water served here".
On the menu of a Polish hotel: "Salad a firm's own make; limpid red better soup with cheesy dumplings in the form of a finger;roasted duck let loose;beef rashers beaten up in the country people's fashion".
In a Zurich Hotel:"Because of the impropriety of entertaining guests of the opposite sex in the bedroom, it is suggested that the lobby be used for that purpose".
A sign posted in a German park:"It is strictly forbidden on our black forest camping site that people of different sex, for instance, men and women, live together in one tent unless they are married with each other for that purpose".
In a Macao store:"Sorry!Midgets will always be available tomorrow!"
From a brochure from a car rental firm in Tokyo: "When passenger on foot heave in sight, tootle the horn. Trumpet him melodiously at first, but if he still obstacles your passage then tootle him with vigor!"

All this and more brought to you by _Google Translate_. Please come again!!
