   Eh, is it considered as Engrish when it happens in Australia, though?

   LOL all the same.

   >.> I thought that wasn’t engrish, I thuoght it was intentional =/. I thought the funny thing was the “Winner of Australia’s 2k6 biggest loser, Lost 50 Kilos”.

   That’s not Engrish, that’s the tagline. “Light” as in “healthy”…

   Am I missing something as to why it’s funny…?
   was the interpretation that they mistook ‘r’ for ‘l’?

   because it makes sense to me as it is O.O

   It’s just your everyday pun, just like how Kabitzin does it all the time at “Sea Slugs!”. Engrish, it is not.

    This post fails hard. Not only is the pun very lame, the people aren’t even getting it.

    I did get the pun, but I’m not used to Engirish and so it didn’t strike as funny, since I see it as only a marketing catchphrase.

    lesson: don’t criticize if you’re not sure of what’s wrong. there’s nothing wrong with this tagline. you people are idiots!
