Lost In Translation

While home sick on Monday, I finally watched and enjoyed Lost In Translation. The whole "Lip my stockings!" bit was amazing.

Today at Grand Rounds, one of the presenters was a senior Japanese MD/PhD student. Their talk was on HPV, Cervical Cancer, and the vaccine.

It featured some great engrish moments, including, on one slide, "Does booster necessary?" and on another slide on a patient's history "Sexual Debut - Age 14." The M1s were confused as if this was the standard way to describe when someone lost their virginity, and I said no, it was just lost in translation.
