Eastrans Launches New Information Service For Alcoholics!!!!

Post by Member1100 »

In an ATDB exclusive, these are the first pictures of a brand new community service launched today by Eastrans. In its committment to ensure that all different groups in society has information about its new 900 Smartbus service, Eastrans launched its new multi language in vehicle information signs......starting with the language of the habitual drinker. For most of you, the text on the sign pictured below makes no sense at all, however once a few too many drinks have been downed, it suddenly becomes alot clearer, revealing the text "Welcome To Smartbus."

Its believed that other languages will soon be added to the list of available languages. Eastrans is also considering a request by Mufti Al Hilali to provide Muslim-English translations so that his comments will no longer be taken out of context everytime he insults a racial or minority group.

Ahahaha, loved it.

Maybe they should put you in charge of deciding what languages go up there?
