In Thai it means simply something in English, therefore surely something cool. Seriously, you see all kinds of ridiculous stickers on cars here with seemingly randomly thrown together English words. This one is the best I've seen though.

A typical sticker would say something like 'EXCITEMENT SPEED LIFE!' smile

Reminds of the flight i was on to Bali. The head rest to the seats had a cover on them that read "Fly is Cheap". I found out afterwards that the airline we were flying on lost 3 planes. neutral

using "f's" instead of "th's"

mouf/mouth

ending sentences with prepositions

I always screw up you're and your, and they're and their. I know the correct way to use them, but for whatever goofy reason, I always type the wrong one.

My worst mistake is (mis)spelling Michael.

NO ONE conversates! (Well... maybe in prison adult education classes.) People "converse."

I mean it. I can't explain why, but it's very very important that you do not respond to him.

Thank you.

Oh man, co-sign, that shit drives me insane! I want to tell them, "It's I've seen", not "I seen".

Also, when people pronounce the word "huge" "yuge". lol WTF is up with that? lol

A good friend of mine pronounces "Bruggers" "Bruggels". lol WTF? lol
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.
