Nakorn Si Tammarat: English Abuse Alert

As you get off the beaten path over here the state of English goes downhill fast. Signage in Nakorn Si Tammarat featured the following “discretionary” spellings:

Restaurand

Magaroni

Bothroom (at a school)

Crap Trapping Tools (at a museum)

Shrim (same museum)

I don’t make a science of such searches, so, as usual, I’m just scratching the surface. For a scientific investigation of such things, you can always check engrish.com.
