good place to post things that we find that are just travesties, in English, PT, or whatever other language people might be interested in. Full disclosure, i commit these on a daily basis myself. I was looking at a local business web page when i saw "desenvolvido por Hand Job Studio" and choked on my chimarrao. three clicks later and here we are: (perhaps sadly, this is not p0rnz) they've got a great logo:  have you seen such a jewel lately? ETA: i am removing the direct link because my objective is not to be cruel here. though i often tell people they should stick to domestic work because their company name is questionable (a restaurant named Douchey comes to mind) most often people can't be bothered listening. |

And damn it, I was just now drinking coffee!!!  My keyboard is a mess! (from the coffee...)  ------------- I might bark, but I don't bite. (trolls, sock puppets, Brasil-bashers, and "Joined:Today" persons too lazy to use the Search function excluded; cry babies too) |

| I´m the owner of the Hand Job Studio. Hand Job is just a slang, and a joke. My line of work is based on rock´n roll, spicy and ironic humor. You can see my "Hand Jobs" on http://www.flickr.com/photos/fabiobiondo/ and www.handjobstudio.com. But if this shock you, dont look, you will spit your "chimarrao"... Bye! |
