But-room

by on March 5, 2011 in Asia, English Usage, Laos, Southeast Asia, Travel

On the road from Vientiane to Thakek.

Now, there are a couple things going on with this photo. First, “please” is misspelled; okay, that’s a little obvious. Now what got me chuckling is the next part, “butroom.” Yes, it should be “bathroom” but, (no pun intended) butroom makes sense. After all, it is a room for your butt.

Make no buts about it.

    ahahhahahahahah that is so classic and typical signs in Laos :-) . That might be little pricey to the local standard, 2000 kips which is roughly equal to $0.25 cents. Thanks for the laugh.
