always with the hardly snowflake pulling


This sticker was on a box of wine stoppers that Meredith bought at Meijer. We agree that the wording here is better than the quotation marks, maybe the QMs are there to indicate that the sticker printers didn't think it was well-worded either.

reading that makes me think that December Home isn't some quaint, poetic name, but in fact some major mistranslation.

Sadly, December Home is accurate. Corporate has enough spelling problems, as evidenced by our Fire Greats, Crammit macaroni, and Snopy Dogho (Snoopy's Doghouse) signage.

Snopy Dogho!? HA HA HA HA HA! Engrish, for sure.
