LOL. I'm not touching THAT one ... regardless of how badly preponderant it is!

I've purchased any number of products as well as worked more than one project where technical instructions had been created on the cheap and written by a struggling, non-native speaker or translated in Babel Fish. And we've all gotten those sleazy e-mails for products that at least 50% of us (being female) have utterly no reason to purchase. It would appear that those two worlds have merged, and instructions no longer suffer in isolation from cheap authorship. I doubt that I will be using this recently received e-mail as a portfolio example to demonstrate the importance of clear and concise professional writing and translations (tempting as it is), but it was good for a whopping belly laugh: "Chicks always srieked at me and even gentlemans did in the national toilet! Well, now I laugh at them, because I took M eg ad ik for 6 months and now my member is badly preponderant than federal." MNMary
