And next to that is the restaurant PIZZABOY
Sing us a song
It takes boy pizzazz to play the piano, boy.
Wear the piano with pizazz boy
And I suppose the men’s lavatory is called PISSBOY.
Piano boy is a key member of staff.
Piano boy is also an upright citizen with grand ideas.
In the back street you can find organ boy.
If this would have been Thailand, there would also have been a Ladyboy.
Censor Boy.
Boy Mall
Billy Joel, the early years.
And strolling along with the rectangular sunglasses: Purseboy
Visit our water sports store: Buoy Boy
Ebony and Pizzaboy live together in perfect harmony
Side by side on my piano keyboard, oh Lord, why don’t we?
The logo on the right reminds me of something – PLAYpianoBOY.
And in the food court: Chef Boy (rd)
All the ladies want a pianist.
The sign between the stores looks like someone is trying to stick a banana into one‘s rear.
Pianoboy has 3 legs.
Te audire no possum musa sapentium fixe est in aure
@Dr Lex 0413. I think you have found Shanghai’s equivalent.
The swimwear shop is called Buoyoboy.
You can tune a piano.
But can you tune a boy?
Almost forgot: I hear that in Afghanistan tuning boys is a popular pastime.
Hmmm…it’s mainland China.
This must mean that in the Japanese-oriented section of the mall there are probably a couple of stores right next to each other called “Little Boy” and “Fat Man”.
Just for the irresistible temptation (by Chinese mainlanders) to poke the Japanese in the eye every chance they get.
!Algernon. 0402. Did you say; “show us your schlong”?
PLEASE tell me there is a shoe shine stand there.
@Pete 0602. Do they get many “high Cs”? 👿
@Marum 632:
That would depend of the age of the victim!
@Major Burns 0630:
…which would be called what: Shoe Boy?
(or the color of the polish?)
You know of course there’d be a telephone booth next to the shoeshine stand and a store next to that called “Under Boy”.
(Apologies to our UK/AUS/NZ audience. It’s possible one may need to be a North American of a certain age to “get” this one.)
@Marum 515:
Never having studied Latin, I put your post into Google Translate.
Which resulted in some pretty serious Engrish:
“Muse Wisdom fixe is in the ear can not hear you”
Say whaaaaaaaat???
When you return, you will be a piano man.
Between Pizazzboy and Pianoboy must be Dildoboy.
@Pete 0705 hahahahagurgle. I would expect little better of Google translate. It is verily, quite capable of generating WWWIII Musa Sapientium is the ancient banana genus of seeded bananas. if you live in the tropics you should be able to grow ’em. Ergo; I cannot hear you I have a banana stuck in my ear. Te audire no possum = It is not possible to hear (you) musa Sapienteum fixe est in aure = (a) banana is fixed in my ear. If you look at the bottom of last nights posting, you will find my reply to your translation. Domo… Read more »
Pet sama = Pete sama I ned a nw keyboard, the tea has accounted for this one
– You can get this one for 500 000 yuan: he can play 92 keys instead of the usual 88! He’s a gifted boy, what else can I say?
– What’s his name?
– Bösendorfer.
(Look it up if you’re unsure what it is.)
@Marum 728:
Roger that on Google Translate starting WW3!
I’ve gotten some pretty hilarious results using that so-called “tool”.
Thanx for the typo fix, mate.
‘Coz if you called me “my pet” I’d have hopped on Quantas, flown across North America and the Pacific just to head to Oz and belt ya one.
But since ya fixed it, I won’t!
Instead I’ll just shout ya a beer remotely.
🙂
@Marum 728:
Bitte!
Is this mall run by Hugh Hefner?
@Yuu No Hoo 421:
Actually even more than a Pianist, the ladies far prefer experienced cunning linguists!
Name of the Mall:
The Great Hall of the Boys
I suppose Boise Cascade has a store there called ‘Paper Boy’…
@Huu Yuu | 4:05 am: Loyal sidekick of Butman?
There was such a post on here back in January; sorry, couldn’t find the link again.
I heard Yankee Candle Boy used to be next to Chipotle Boy but used to always ask to see Chipotle Boy’s green card. So they moved Yankee Candle Boy next to Banana Republic Boy as punishment.
He plays at the juice bar upstairs.
@Lora-No, more likely Boy George.
Right next to GameBoy
It takes a Playboy to play the Pianoboy
