Rule #1: we need the right servley

PT: Quem mais imagina a equipe de Sergio K concebendo essa "estampa" em um guardanapo de papel? Concepção essa, feita por alguém cuja grafia do número cinco é, digamos, bastante fluida?

EN: Having to look at this shirt was probably the worse IS minutes of my life too.

we need live aid.

PT: Festival de analfabetismo: seria esse um termo muito forte para descrever um evento em que nem de graça as pessoas querem ir?

EN: Well, since the sentence needed a subject, we thought we might help. But it's help on their terms, of course. And no, so far we have no idea whether Anderson is upset because of all the bad grammar or because Linkin Park is putting out another album.

howw soon is noww?

PT: Gramática correta: mais fora de moda do que qualquer coisa que você vestiu há três meses.

EN: I think I speak for anyone here when I say we caan't waait. Who said grammar was fashionable?

follow the leader

PT: Hummmmmm, como colocar isso de forma eloquente? Chupa New York Times?

EN: Oh, come on, it's only the NYT. It's not like it's a real newspaper.

I keep thinking someone who would write this would also go "Dammit, how did MS Word not know that one?!" afterwards.

É proibido fumar, diz a matéria gramaticalmente incorreta que eu li.

PT: Eu sabia que esse dia chegaria! Finalmente Samuel Rosa e cia. são, oficialmente, droga.

EN: Rest assured it is not a slutty strain of pot. It's just tasteless music.

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.
