Funny signs are a dime a dozen, but are a fading trend because many people here are pretty good at English these days; China has completely eclipsed Japan on this front during the course of the past 10 years. That having been said, if I had been on hand when the powers that be created their enormous $100,000 "Wellcome to Shanghai" sign, I would have helped them make it right during the course of 30 seconds.
