Being abroad (not a broad) you have the opportunity and the pleasure to see lots of entertaining signs. Here is one that Amanda and I have recently had a good laugh at:

It’s a sign for an auto parts shop in Latiano Link. It doesn’t make much sense to the Italians, but I don’t think any Americans will be shopping there!

I would love to see some of your "crappy" pics!

That's so funny! I wonder what that really means though? Too bad they wouldn't understand what the terminology is really saying to us!

not to appear dumb, but exactly what does crap stand for? is it fresh crap? or old crap? does the crap stink? or is it sterilized crap? is it good for crops? crapcrops, coming to you!

So THAT's how you say "Autozone" in Italian.

Nice find, Avanti!

We asked around, but no one know what it stood for.

We have some Italian friends who have been to the states are know a bit about American culture, that thought it was funny, we thought it was hilarious!

I think it stans for Caca Rimane Attaccato al Pollice - which means that crap remains attached (stuck) to your thumb. Must be a cultural thing...

- Yeah! I guess it would be the Italian equivalent! But hey, if my Ford P.O.S. ever breaks down, I know where to take it!
