Cross-Cultural Stuff-ups!

ON the Crusiers tour bus today going out to a national park in the jungle.
Tour guide has the microphone at front of bus and his Engrish is not tremendous:


"If you go to toilet behind a tree please say 'Pardon' to the monkeys or you will get swollen genitals."



A few minutes later the clutch burnt out.

Anyone had similar useful advice?
