They printed a "best of" in June, but I just got the mag free from the library.

Anyway:

"Manuals that have been lost in translation:

Our favorite:

Intending to identify a screw, an electronic-keyboard pamphlet from Yamaha used an entirely different Anglo-Saxon word."


My personal 2nd fav is pictoral, but I will attempt to convey it:

in large lettering on one of those placed-letters signboards in front of some establishment:

"EAT HERE

& GET

WORMS"

Aw, the board's auto-incorrect isn't allowing me to replicate the lettering placement

One of several such pictures I found, and the only one with an ampersand...

Consumer Reports June 2014 had a diff sign. From a diff place. I'm not going to search it on-line, but I'm pretty sure it had an ampersand where I put it (mag's at home, currently). Other entities than me using ampersands is not the important part of the message, though. CR's caption was something like "it would be great if this place sold gas too!" & I didn't get what was funny about that until I just saw the diff-place's sign you show.
