All I can say is "WTF mate?!"

also, what is the adapter even for, my guess is that it would allow you to use items designed for a car, but on a plane.

It's just a power inverter which turns 12V into 110VAC.

Some are just laptop adapters and only work with, ehmm, electronic devices.

Still, this interpretation of the symbol is quite funny!

I use those adapter boxes every weekend when I park my Sessna in my driveway, its really good.

Honestly, great broken post, keep it up :)

The biggest problem with the sign is that the car is lying on the side and the airplane is tilted in a goofy way... :-)

not really broken i think. if they painted the objects to proportion you wouldn't be able to see the car or the adapter.

maybe you need to turn box clockwise one turn and surprise ...car is right side up and plane looks normal...

I too think the photo needs to be rotated 90-degrees clockwise.

HOWEVER, that wouldn't solve an even larger problem. What exactly is this diagram trying to say? "Which one of these things is not like the other?"

Maybe... Car and plane, each with arrows pointing to the adaptor, and the adaptor then pointing to a laptop?

Is that supposed to inform people of all languages what is in the box.

By the looks of it, you are an idiot.

Posted by: Boris die Spinne at November 4, 2005 02:08 PM

yep.

That could be a problem.

Those SUV's are getting out of hand! Now they're bigger than airplanes :)

Well, it's not BROKEN... Just the fact that they couldn't fit a full size picture of a car or plane makes it look ambiguous. If you think about it, the adapter would probably be hard to recognize if it were much smaller; some idiot might think it's a square yo-yo.
