Cultural Sensitivity in the Translation Industry

Real_Pants: according to the site meter, someone in china, mexico and canada and portugal has signed into our website
i'm beginning to think they are making things up
it also says both houston AND irving texas...
Kickmeup: weird...
maybe it's like some sort of weird remote thing
CHINA? i mean come on
like they'd even ALLOW china to read it!
Real_Pants: people in china read CHINESE
not american
Kickmeup: EXACTLY
goddamned simplified chinese is what they read
certainly not american english!
Real_Pants: yeah they're not fooling anyone with their slanty eyes
Kickmeup: oh my god we're so getting fired.
