Fail.
Ooohhh….someone wrote something other than “FIRST!!!!11!!!1″
Finally.
This must have been the first time…
Original comment FAIL
well, at least it’s not first.
Well that kinda depends on the conditions of the lodging, doesn’t it? It might be a nice place to stay but I’d rather not find out.
first
You jackass. You fail at life, please go punch yourself in the face.
Gaddorm = Win!
Dude, I agree with you, but “punch yourself in the face”? That’s a bit weak…
yea, drown yourself in a toilet is waaayyyy better.
first fail
Dork
insult fail
Maybe they just don’t speak english?
exactly! There are a lot of english names like chicago and boston for example that sound like and are written like bad words. chicago in portuguese could be interpreted as : oops, shat ! and boston sound like big shit in portuguese.
So IT is a failed fail, because it is from a foreign culture.
what does the sign mean?
It appears to be spanish. From my very limited knowledge of etymology, something about an industry maybe to do with earth?(terra)… and a hotel service? That makes very little sense. Hell, I’ll use babelfish.
Babelfish:
Spanish to English: Service of the Industrial Hotel trade of Terrassa (Terrassa is an area in Spain.
So, I was almost horribly wrong.
“Industrial Hostel Service of Terrassa” would be the correct translation.
I was using a translator. Give me a break, I never even studied Spanish.
You fail at Spanish.
you fail at fail-translating
Fail at spanish!
anyway its the Service for Industrial Lodging of Terrassa (Lodging is a synonim to Hosteling and the most appropriate here)
Although the sign is in spanish, Terrassa isn’t an area, it’s a town, and it isn’t in Spain, is in the Catalan Countries, a non-recognized country occupied since more than three hundred years by Spain.
The language spoken in the Catalan Countries is catalan, a romanic language as spanish, portuguese, french or occitan. The catalan countries are located between Spain and France, having land in both states and more than 12 millions people. The most important and well-known city is Barcelona.
man, you are an asshole, you know shit about spain
It sounds funny, but I am sure I do know more than you, at least in
its repressive manners, that seem pretty close to yours…
Nobody really gives a Service for Industrial Lodging of Terrassa.
Actually, what he said is dead on and completely accurate.
I’m from Spain and I used to live like 30 minutes away from Terrassa (which is, in fact, a town). I probably passed by that spot in the picture at some point or another, and I never noticed it LOL.
yawn
You are a total fail. Fail at history, fail at politics, fail at common sense. Fail at being fickle.
FAIL!
and you FAIL at respect, can’t you understand people’s will?
If the language spoken is català, why is the sign in Spanish (castellano)? Or is the missing accent in “hostelería” an indication that it actually isn’t castellano?
BTW, separatism sucks.
It IS in spanish, but someone comitted an ortographic fail there.
That sign fails in nearly every possible way.
I bet the light bulbs inside don’t work either.
Niceee. :]
Im spanish, and this isnt the truth. Catalonia is in Spain like Galicia or Castilla la mancha. A little part of catalonians want to be independents, but only a litlle part. I someone want to go out, should go to andorra. no ?
Spaniards fail. Catalans are cooler.
Sorry but I wasn’t speaking with you,
Are you trying to make a fool of me?
Because you are only achieving making a fool of yourself…
Go and FAIL elsewhere, disrespectful spanish.
Tú eres tonto, tío
se ve que eres catalán jajaj pero creo que la mayor parte de la gente aquí no te va a entender y se va a perder cuando le hables de los problemas territoriales de españa
you must be catalonian to say something so away from truth, Terrassa IS part of Spain, the term catalan countries doesn’t even exist and hasn’t been occupied it since the french did, go read a true book of history before posting all these fakes
, you fail at so many levels…
hum, … Catalan countries?! Independent FAIL!!!
Catalonia is in Spain… no matter what you want.
And “Servicio de Hostelería industrial de Terrassa” is
written in spanish, not catalan.
Nationalism fail! Catalunya is Spain, at least for now. And most Catalan people feel Spanish.
Terrassa is a city, near Barcelona…
I live 30 km from this town. Terrassa is a town just outside of Barcelona. The translation of the name is “Terrassa Industrial Hostelry Services”, which is shit backwards., which I also find funny on several levels.
It means Industrial service hotel of Terrassa.
this isn’t really a failure.
thats near my home (portugal)
in english says
industrial hotelary service of terrasa
Gee, thanks for that wonderful translation.
lol
Really? When I saw that I thought that was a manipulated image because it’s a very stupid thing in portuguese, I would even say that make no sense at all…
The man that ordered that was… well… dumb!
It’s Spanish.
It seems to be a store to supply hotels, located in Terrassa.
I thought it was some other language (maybe italian or some bad spelled spanish, I don’t know). “Servicio” here in Brasil is “serviço”, so i thought it was written the same way in Portugal.
=)
I consulted this online Portuguese dictionary (Portuguese language website) and it has no entry for “servício”. The Spanish spelling isn’t too bad, but “hostelería” should have an acute accent on the I.
Merda, eu FALHEI (obrigado rphlfmf!) Aqui está o dicconário que usei.
I Google “Terrassa” as spelled and I find only a city in Catalonia (that’s eastern Spain for those who FAIL at geography). So it’s perhaps not as near as you seem to be implying.
‘Near’ in Europe and ‘near’ in America are two completely different concepts.
¿Terrassa near portugal? MEGA GEOGRAPHY FAIL!
This city is in Catalonia, northeast spain, in the mediterranean coast.
theres terrasa in portugal too
False! You fail.
yeah I thought that was Portuguese. Thought I was going crazy for a minute.
its a “i am american everybody should speak english” PHAIL! for you the poster
Stop trying so hard to be “understanding of other cultures” The sign reads S.H.I.T. Now while I don’t expect everyone in the world to be fluent in english, certain swearwords tend to be frighteningly universal, especially the big ones like SHIT.
Quick, name the Spanish word for shit.
Can’t? Didn’t think so.
See the problem? You might create that as an acronym by mistake.
you fail at making a point
Not really, you just fail at understanding.
And that would also be a fail.
Just like this is.
Everything is a fail.
Except suicide, which is always a win.
I encourage you all to WIN.
Merda
Você FALHA. That’s Portuguese and possibly Italian. The word is mierda.
“Merda” is portuguese. =D
And you failed your portuguese =)
“Você falhou”.
Merda is also Catalan!
Merda is also Galician!
You can’t translate english to portuguese “by the foot of the letter” (as they say here).
In this case the verb should be in the past. “Falhar” becomes “falhou”.
“Falha” can be the verb in the present or a noun.
=)
Greek: skata
Many languages: caca or kaka
shit in spanish= MIERDA
Well, I could have guessed that, since the European languages are very similar. French is Merde, and I think it’s the same in Italian.
“The European languages”? I’d be enthralled to hear your explanation how Basque is similar to Greek or Estonian. Language classification fail!
It’s actually the romance languages you’re referring to – anything
derived from the Latin. That would include French, Italian, and Spanish.
Scheisse (or Scheiße, if you still prefer the Eszett) ^_^
yeah but see now you’re getting even further off topic by going into GERMAN.
New German spelling fail! “Scheiße” is still spelled with “ß” (diphthong)! “Fuß” is (long vowel), “Kuss” is not (short vowel).
Mierde. I think.
El shito……Me = “PC” fail!!!
This whole string is a fail.
to be precise, you’re speaking english.
and, this is still quite the big fail.
Sign up now for some Special High Intensity Training…. were proud that we give our employees more Special High Intensity Training than any other company… Contact the Head of Trainng for Special High Intensity Training for more details.
Otherwise yeah this is a Fail…
that reminds me of the cat in the hat, where he had that vehicle that was an acronym for S.L.O.W. then he said it used to be the… yeah
what
Here she is, the Super Luxurious Omnidirectional Whatchamajigger, or S-L-O-W for short.
It’s better than the last thing we had: Super Hydraulic Instantaneous Transporter.
Oh, you mean…
NO! Quick! To the S.L.O.W.!
This is not Portuguese, Terrassa is in Spain. woot Fail !!!
habla fail
kkkk Shit… oh shit ….
ah shit!
lost in translation?

Thats almost as good as F.I.N.A.L.S.
Fuck
I
Never
Learned
Shit
knowing how to spell finals fail.
“Actually” fail.
Ahahahah
I live in Terrassa!! xD
What are the odds?
1st you fuckers
thumbs down…
Just like South Harmon Institute of Technology.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0384793/ (comedy fail)
Well you lot obviously know your shit!
Shit happens!…
“merda” is the catalonian word for shit, nor portuguese nor spanish
“Merda” is portuguese too.
It can also be: cocô, bosta, “numero 2″, caca, “restos mortais”, estrume (usually for animals), excremento etc.
You can find a lot of synonyms.
=)
Isn’t “bosta” only used for (literally) bull (or cow) shit?
Actually, “caca” is the word you’d use if you were a child or a parent trying to lecture one. “Excremento” is Spanish for “excrement” so probably not what you would use to swear.
The proper swear word in Spanish would be “mierda”, which is literally “shit” and equally offensive!
There you go. Now you can swear in Spanish as well
What a pile of Servicio de Hosteleria Industrial de Terrassa that movie was.
There are a lot of Shit-Fails these days…
sounds like a brothle
Although the sign is in spanish, Terrassa isn’t an area, it’s a town, and it isn’t in Spain, is in the Catalan Countries, a non-recognized country occupied since more than three hundred years by Spain.

ignorante de mierda (SHIT). No tienes ni puta idea de o que es España, y escupes sólo bilis y odio (que es lo único que tienes). GILIPOLLAS!!
Catalan Countries… pffffff flipao xD
The sign says S.H.I.T … Can’t we just accept the humor in all of it’s pedantic, childish, point and giggle beauty? Just think about wandering the streets of this town(wherver the Hell it ACTUALLY is) as a tourist. Pull out your map….. hmmm, now where is the diner I’m looking for… Wait I’ll go in the SHIT headquarters and ask them.. if anyone knows their shit……..
You don’t know shit unless you’re Tyler Cannon!
Catalanes tenían que ser xD
Most Spanish-speaking Catalans have this level of culture. Yes, they are also the ones that are not separatists.
Pues sí, catalanes y encima de Terrassa xD

old as fuck
I guess we all fail as English speakers every time we say the word “after”, since that’s German for “anus”
Me cago en la puta MIERDA!!
Typical spanish expression…
Actually, it is “Me cago en tu puta madre cabron!!”
Or just “Me cago!” or “mierda”…
LOL :B
Hahahaha! It’s in my city! lol!
At least it wasn’t something like First Utility Company of Kansas.
ROFL
Catalonia is not spain. Its an opressed nation. They can say alot of things but catalans dont feel like they are spanish. We have to fight for our selfdetermination. But they need us, coz we bring da money.
PIECE AND FREEDOM
LOL! Ll.Companys, I only needed to read your nickname to know what the comment would be talking about (well, writing in fact). It must be a true pity for Catalans that Spain has won the Soccer Eurocup, as you can’t feel all the pride the rest of Spain has felt for its National Team when it beat Germany. Like it or not, there were some catalan players in the team who (I am sure) have enjoyed winning this title. The difference between you nationalists and we Spanish is that in a Scotland-Catalonia, we prefer Catalonia to win. But instead you prefer Germany to beat Spain, as all your hate focuses on all the evils to fall on Spain, country you are part of.
Oh, I almost forgot: those “catalan countries” you claim don’t exist. You shout for opression but at the same time you include other regions into “your country” against their wishes. Isn’t that a political strategy failure?
Dear Ll. Companys,
Please go fuck yourself.

first of all i’m against the term “catalan countries” coz everyone have the right to choose his nationality.
el generalisimo, ur nick is also so explicit, lil fascist rat.
hahaha ‘lil fascist rat’ that was fun (really, It’s a small but sharp insult), it brings me to mind Monty Python’s and the knights of the round table, when the French at the castle walls insults them with stupid but funny insults ^^
I just wanted to give you some of your own medicine: So stupid are the fanatics in both sides, and I don’t support any of them. I am glad you are against that idea of “catalan countries”, at least I find a sensible nationalist in you, lil nationalist rat hehe.
S.H.I.T.! a failure! it’s the Square table, not the Round table >_<!!
Oh my dear god guys…
Its portuguese! Not Spanish!
You fail!
