They are making living here in America very difficult for us white men! They come here expecting all of us to start eating tacos and speaking that Spanish! I bought a phone from Wal-mart last night, and there was only Spanish instructions inside! Those Hispanics better realize that yo no hablo mexicano!:upyours: :upyours:


In all seriousness, the box didn't give me instructions in english, and now I have to think in spanish, and my day is shot. How is your day going? (or is that spam to ask?)

Optional non-spammy question- Do you like traditional hispanic food? :p

There have been many studies done that suggest learning another language is helpfull in helping to maintain the brains errrr brainyness!

So it's is good that you can think in a second language, it shows you are more brainy than most, and that means I guess big thanks must go out to those damned illiegals!

Over here in the UK, we have more and more Polish immigrants, and I think Polish is a lot harder to learn than Spanish!

Why the hell would you even look at the instruction manual?

While I agree that knowing a second language enhances memory in later life, helping to offset such mental illnesses like Dementia, there should have been English instructions in the box along with the Spanish ones.

Well, I was wanting to know how to operate all the cool high tech stuff, like the oh so futuristic answering machine. Because there are no buttons that say "record" or anything like that, and I want to record my message! :mad:

On a serious note Zilam, have you tried turning the instructions over? Often times the manufacturers print both languages on the same booklet, back to back.

Because here in Macomb, Illinois, its either walmart or kmart.

Looks like some third world flunky forgot to include the english version, but all might not be lost. Check to see if the manufacturer has a website. Lots of time you can download user manuals direct form them.

Failing that, smack yourself on the head with the thing, then sue - because the instructions telling you not to do this were clearly in spanish and therefore useless.

Perfect idea! I'll sue, because I am going through mental anguish! (I'll give you 10, just because I am that darn nice ;))

Aha - what you want to do is find out the make / model and look for instructions on Google.

you should go to the store and get a new phone preferably getting a refund after you buy some guns and a giant confederate flag

oh and I've just got up so my day is starting to go downhill :p (though I did find a Belgium so I'm content)

I also adore Mexican food though I'm more of a fajitas guy (yes I know thats Texan)

Thanks for the pointless flamebaiting spam. You win the award for the worst post to start a thread of the week. Have some vodka to wash down the awful taste of your post.
