Actually, this is more an example of bad translating. The funny stuff is when there's a poor/odd English translation posted officially under the original Chinese. For instance, in GZ I saw a hospital. I don't recall the specifics, but I would translate the Chinese name as "Hospital for drug addiction therapy" or something like that. But the English name, posted in huge letters right under the Chinese, said, "Drug Addicts Hospital". That is a funny and bad translation!
