Anyone tempted to enlist the services of a tattoo artist is being urged by a professional translation service to 'think before they ink' in order to avoid mistakes like this woman who using an internet translation tool to render 'I love David' into Hebrew later found out that she has inadvertently had the phrase 'Babylon is the world's leading dictionary and translation software' inked on her back.

Its great to see Monday media back. Thanks for the laughs, I loved the chickens and the think before they ink - link - thanks for sharing them.
Yay - I'm glad to see Media Monday again!
I was just wondering about the vinegar aspect of the onion spill when I saw the reference to the "eye-watering carnage" in the article. What a waste!
Yay for Monday Media!
Ick about the pickled onions! That sounds terrible! And very wise advice about thinking before inking.
These are so funny! Yes, definitely be careful with those tattoos, especially when not using your native language. LOL
Yay is right! But these stories can't be true, can they? I suppose piles and piles of pickled onions, cackling, bib-wearing chickens, amorous fish, and tattoos with unintended translations are all part of the human comedy.
I'm glad things have calmed down for you!
Fun stories as always. The think before you ink is sad though. I mean if you think... there is less of a story to tell. LOL
You crack me up! Glad Monday Media is back!
I'm glad you're back!
oh wow, that martini sounds a bit crazy. hahah
and people DEFINITELY need to think before they ink sometimes.
Yeah for Monday Media! Always such fun articles. Fascinating to think about the fish keeping everyone up at night. lol
Sorry, my comment got cut off.
I have never tried pickled onions but I feel that I must do so ever reading that story. We have an artisan pickle shop around here (I swear that is true) and I will see if they make such a thing.
Yea for Monday Media! Always get a chuckle out of these, so glad you brought it back. Now I'm curious about who is going to put all those bibs on the chickens!
I would never have imagine fish would be so noisy. Now what are they going to do about it that won't result in frustrated fish?
