osso duro de roer.

PT: Sugestão: contratar um revisor, durão, daqueles que não deixam passar nada.

EN: When in doubt, check things. On the spot. Personally, I would have translated it as "lorem ipsum".

Come on, vogue! Let your grammar move to the music.

PT: Conseguir, de todas as alternativas, utilizar aquela que não existe em nenhuma das duas línguas é obra de mestre.

EN: Well, it's VOGUE. Can't really expect *that* much.

you could be fine

PT: Modelu, atris, tradutoura, grupie e rainha foguetera.

EN: Seriously, could this get any better? (It's so tempting to add a "Back Off Bitch" here right now... oops!)

Welcome To The Jungle: Guns n' Roses in Brazil (special edition)

PT: Dando início à série de pérolas coletadas durante a passagem do Gn'R pelo Brasil com uma homenagem àqueles que fazem do show uma experiência realmente inesquecível: os ambulantes! Enjoy!

EN: The Brazilian leg of the tour has been spanning so many gems, we're starting a whole series. And of course we must begin with the people who make it all happen: the fans the ones who take advantage of concert-goers (we didn't see that many fans, really).

fragrante: this title makes no sense in English and neither does any of the content of this post.

PT: Jeitinho brasileiro (ou seria Homer Simpson) característico, onde é comum se achar muito, mas muito inteligente.

EN: These (or is it 'theses'?) are examples of "where do we begin?!", so Anderson thought it would be better if only the incorrect spelling was highlighted. Believe me, these (theses?) are all worth the read.

RedeTV: teasing on a whole new level.

PT: Ninguém foi capaz de chamar a Gimenez pra consultoria?

EN: The network has a tv ad explaining how modern its website is, soundtracked to dialup modem sounds, so I'm sure grammar is not really a priority there.




(original) Front page only, will not be there in a few days unfortunately.

the deforestation of the English language

PT: Grobo e você: profissionalismo pra quê?

EN: We'll just stick to what's more easily unveiled in the image. I still see no costumes though.

home sweet home

PT: Pra que software? Pra que hardware? Homeware é a cara do Brasil! Sair pra trabalhar é coisa do passado!

EN: In case you didn't know, "homeware" encompasses tools for freelancers who work their asses off at home. Duh.

slutty nail polish FAIL

PT: A tempo pro Carnaval 2010! Seria um sucesso na avenida (e nos salões)!

EN: Made in U.S.A. with a Brazilian touch I guess.

A Soprano da Ópera do Sabão

PT: Imagina se a vaporosa falasse alemão.

EN: The original layout killed me, but I was able to extract a few gems. And that's why nothing else has been highlighted on this one. The selected two deserve their fifteen minutes of lame fame.
